Chapter 84: Mutation
Luo Qingzhi found Mu Chengqian and asked for the painting, she thought that if she wanted to save the Mu family, she had to find out who was behind the scenes.
Mu Chengqian said, "I asked A-Ning to go with you?"
Luo Qingzhi refused, "It's better for Miss Mu to stay in the city."
Mu Chengqian thought for a moment and nodded, "Okay."
Feng Zinan was injured, Luo Chen had not yet arrived, Luo Qingzhi could only take Gao Zhen to Weibao Mountain, and Wang Mian followed five miles away.
As soon as she entered the realm of Weibao Mountain, Luo Qingzhi vaguely felt that something was wrong, but thinking that Wang Mian was behind her, it was different from the last time, so she still went up the mountain with confidence.
Luo Qingzhi thought about the last time Zhixin told her, and when she saw Gao Zhen appear here, she asked, "Last time, when we came to Weibao Mountain, you were there?"
Gao Zhen nodded, "I found out that the concubine was going to kill you, so I rushed over to stop it, but it was too late, and it had already happened."
"I don't think I've ever asked you about your mother." Luo Qingzhi said.
Gao Zhen asked, "What do you want to know?"
"I've been to the palace where you live, and there is no one to serve you, how do you live?"
Gao Zhen took Luo Qingzhi's hand, avoided the trees in front of him in the middle of the road, and replied lightly, "At the beginning, the concubine bribed those people with her jewelry to make them give us food, but many times, it was rancid."
Luo Qingzhi's fingers curled up, her eyes full of distress.
"At first, I couldn't eat it at all, and the mother said that everything is the greatest in life, and besides, when I hear news from you from time to time, I think I must wait until you come back." Gao Zhen exhaled and continued: "In the first five years, it was really hard, no one treated us as human beings, and occasionally, the county lord helped us."
Luo Qingzhi stopped and looked at Gao Zhen, "I don't know any of this."
Gao Zhen shook his head, "It's all over, I don't think it's a big deal."
"And then?" Luo Qingzhi asked.
"What happened later, you all know, the battle of Pengcheng, you saved me, and later, for some reason, Your Majesty ordered that the queen should not be allowed to embarrass us, and life gradually got better."
After Gao Zhen finished speaking, he comforted Luo Qingzhi, "Now that I think about it, at that time, although I had to endure the torture of the queen from time to time, at least I survived."
Luo Qingzhi didn't say a word, just silently clenched her hands.
Arriving at the Lingguan Palace, unlike the last time, this time, the main hall was closed.
"I'm going to knock on the door." Gao Zhen said.
knocked on the door a few times and waited for a while, thinking that no one would come to open the door, Luo Qingzhi was already planning to leave.
"Squeak—"
Daoist Xianyun opened the door and smiled, "See you again, Miss Jiang."
Luo Qingzhi looked at herself dressed as a woman, and also smiled, "Dao Chief's eyesight is really good."
"Please come in."
The inside of the building is still quiet, and it seems that nothing has changed from the last time.
Xianyun asked, "The two of you are going up the mountain again."
Luo Qingzhi nodded, "Yes, I heard that there is a Changchun Temple on the mountain, come and see."
"That's a long way off, and even if you set off at this time, you'll probably have to spend the rest in the mountains today." Xianyun said.
"So, I wonder if I can stay in the temple?" Luo Qingzhi asked.
"Absolutely." Xianyun said.
Luo Qingzhi looked at the signature on the futon and asked, "The Taoist is just dividing?"
Xianyun nodded.
"If you can, give me a sign." Luo Qingzhi asked.
"Absolutely."
After Luo Qingzhi worshiped the three halal people, she picked up the sticker, closed her eyes, and began to shake, and then took out a stick with her left hand and handed it to Xianyun.
Xianyun looked at it and said, "Seventy-one, sign it."
When Gao Zhen heard this, he immediately asked, "Dare to ask Dao Chang, but something bad will happen."
Xianyun said, "If the county lord believes it, the old Taoist advises the county lord that if you come from there, go back quickly, stay here, and you may die
worried."
Luo Qingzhi didn't react, but Gao Zhen was a little worried, "When are you going to leave?"
"Naturally, the sooner the better." Xianyun said.
Luo Qingzhi smiled and said, "Thank you for Daochang's kindness, but I still have important things to do, and I can't leave yet."
Xianyun said lightly: "Many times, even if you know everything, there will be no less path to go."
After he finished speaking, he took out a yellow talisman from his bosom and said, "Put this on your body, and at the critical moment, it may be able to keep you safe."
Gao Zhen took it with both hands and hurriedly said words of thanks.
"You are going to the Changchun Temple, go out, keep moving forward, and when you see the first fork in the road, turn right, and keep walking to see it." Xianyun said.
"Alright, then let's go." Luo Qingzhi said.
Luo Qingzhi had already walked a few steps, and found that Gao Zhen had not followed, so she turned her head and asked, "What's wrong?"
"Arlo, why don't we go another day." Gao Zhen asked.
Xianyun smiled behind Gao Zhen.
"Didn't the Taoist give me a registration charm, it's okay, follow me."
Luo Qingzhi still insisted on going up the mountain, on the one hand, because she didn't believe this, and on the other hand, she also wanted to know what was waiting for her ahead.
Gao Zhen couldn't convince her, so he could only follow her, more alert than ever.
Luo Qingzhi saw Gao Zhen, who was so nervous, and laughed unconsciously, "It's really reassuring to have Erlang to protect me."
Gao Zhen listened to Luo Qingzhi's joking words, and he was also a little relaxed.
According to Xianyun's guidance, the two came to the first fork in the road and walked to the right.
The further you go inside, the cooler you feel, and the road on the ground has changed from bluestone slabs to muddy dirt roads.
Gao Zhen took off his coat and draped it on Luo Qingzhi's body.
"I'm not cold." Luo Qingzhi said.
Gao Zhen held her hand, "Your hands are cold."
Luo Qingzhi jokingly said, "Cold hands are because of hot hearts."
"Put it on, I'm really not cold."
Gao Zhen put on his coat again, and also took Luo Qingzhi's hand again, trying to warm him with his own temperature.
After walking for half an hour, before the sun set, the two came to the gate of Changchun Temple.
This cave is a horizontal cave, and Gao Zhen lights a fire fold and walks in front.
Luo Qingzhi followed behind her, silently observing the surroundings.
"This hole is colder than the outside." Gao Zhen said.
Luo Qingzhi said, "The painter painted the scene here."
Gao Zhen asked, "The painting is a landscape, this is a cave, how can it be here?"
Luo Qingzhi explained: "I asked someone before, and the landscape in the painting is a mural in the cave."
Gao Zhen nodded and began to look at the mural on the wall.
The cavern was deeper than expected, and the two of them explored as they moved forward.
Suddenly, a drop of water, dripping on the fire fold, instantly lost its light.
"Arlo."
Gao Zhen subconsciously shouted, but suddenly felt the shaking of the ground.
Luo Qingzhi reacted instantly, "It's not good, get out quickly."
The shaky ground made it difficult for the two to walk.
Gao Zhen grabbed Luo Qingzhi's hand, and the two walked to the entrance of the cave with difficulty, a lot of gravel was piled up, and it was estimated that it was only enough for one person to pass through.
Luo Qingzhi let go of her hand and pushed Gao Zhen, "You go out first."
Gao Zhen naturally refused, but still pretended to agree, but deliberately fell down again.
The two watched as the entrance to the cave was blocked.
"Looks like we'll have to stay here together." Gao Zhen said lightly.
"Why don't you go out?" Luo Qingzhi was a little annoyed.
Gao Zhen looked at Luo Qingzhi and said sincerely, "I can't let you stay here alone."
shake
Stop, the two slowly sat down against the wall.
Gao Zhen immediately asked, "Ah Luo, can you promise me one thing?"
"What's the matter?"
"Don't leave me behind, at any time." Gao Zhen said seriously.
Luo Qingzhi sighed and said, "Okay."
Gao Zhen lost Fang Cai's nervousness, and said, "Since we can't get out for a while, otherwise, let's continue to look for that stone wall."
"That's all there is to it, the crown is not far from us, and we should find out soon." Luo Qingzhi said.
Gao Zhen pulled Luo Qingzhi, and the two of them returned to the stone room just now.
The sudden earthquake not only caused some cracks in the ground, but also some cracks in the walls.
"It's a pity." Luo Qingzhi looked at the cracked walls and tore some of the murals apart.
"Ah Luo, this can't be what the Dao Leader said badly." Gao Zhen asked.
Luo Qingzhi was relieved, "Don't worry, this cave is very deep, and the air inside is enough for us to support it."
Gao Zhen smiled faintly, because of the lack of light, Luo Qingzhi didn't notice that his lips had turned white.
Luo Qingzhi was still seriously looking for the mural, and Gao Zhen stood in place, staring at Luo Qingzhi attentively.
Feeling the hot gaze behind her, Luo Qingzhi sighed slightly, "Can you ......?"
Before he could finish saying this, Gao Zhen fell down, and Luo Qingzhi caught him.
"What's going on?" Luo Qingzhi was a little flustered.
Gao Zhen smiled, "It's so good, before closing the eyes, it was you who saw you."
Luo Qingzhi touched Gao Zhen's back, felt the wetness, and raised her hand to see that it was already bloody.
"Jiro." Luo Qingzhi shouted.
Gao Zhen didn't react, Luo Qingzhi instantly felt a pain in her sweetheart, and she suddenly began to blame herself.
She leaned Gao Zhen on her lap and checked the injury on his back, she didn't bring any medicine with her when she went out this time, so she could only take off her coat first and tear it into strips with great effort.
A bag of things slipped out of the sleeves of the tall tweed, and Luo Qingzhi picked it up, it was a talisman given by Xianyun just now.
She smelled it and found that it was the smell of medicinal herbs, opened it happily, and carefully identified it, and it turned out to be the powder of hemostatic grass.
She immediately took off Gao Zhen's shirt and poured the powder gently, the pain made Gao Zhen make a sound, Luo Qingzhi immediately bowed her head, "Erlang."
Gao Zhen didn't open his eyes, Luo Qingzhi continued to take medicine, bandaged him, and then put on his clothes again.
"Jiro, Jiro."
Still unable to wake up Gao Zhen, Luo Qingzhi wiped his sweat beads with her sleeve and found that his forehead was very hot.
Luo Qingzhi put him on the ground, got up and used the remaining strips of cloth to catch the droplets, and after wetting it, put the strips of cloth on Gao Zhen's forehead.
"Ah...... Luo ......"
