Chapter Seventy-Two: The Three Flavors of Water and Fire
Louyle's expression was very calm, he lowered his eyes and glanced at Seth in front of him, and then said, "I still have something to discuss with Miss Cheng." ”
Seth glanced at Louyle with suspicion, but after all, it was now in front of all the cultists, and Seth couldn't do anything disrespectful. After a bit of inner struggle, he finally left with the others.
Cheng Yuxi calmly let Bizhu and Hongluo go out to do other things, and she took the previous book with the dementor bell and planned to go out and think about Yang Qianyu's affairs seriously, and by the way, she set aside time for Luier and Tang Xi to get along with each other, but Tang Xi followed directly, she looked at Cheng Yuxi with some embarrassment, and said, "Just leave something to me to investigate." ”
Tang Yan seemed to be avoiding Louyle.
And behind Tang Yan, Lou Yier raised his chin slightly at Cheng Yuxi, and the meaning was obvious: You better stay.
Cheng Yuxi had no choice but to sigh lightly and sit back.
At this time, Lou Yier inadvertently lowered his eyes, and saw the book that Cheng Yuxi put on the table, he raised his eyebrows, and said, "Dementor Bell? ”
Cheng Yuxi was stunned for a moment, her face suddenly became serious, and she asked, "How do you know about this thing?" ”
Luyle picked up the teacup next to him and took a sip lightly, then said, "Our merchant group has had contact with the people of Fanbang before, and I saw this kind of thing when I went to eat at their main account. Miss Cheng, have you been investigating this lately? ”
Fanbang? The Dementor Bell, is it actually something from Fanbang?
Cheng Yuxi was a little surprised, she thought about it, and said: "To be honest, I have a New Year's friend, his father seems to have been bewitched by this soul bell, abandoned his wife, and the whole person's condition is very bad." ”
Lou Yier was stunned, he frowned and said, "Is Miss Cheng sure that what she saw was really the Soul Bell?" The Dementor Bell is not a common thing, and it is a bit similar to the small ornament of an ordinary girl's house, if you look away......"
"Not really." Cheng Yuxi said categorically: "The soul bell is roughly the same as the description in the book, but the pattern seems to be a little different. And I had seen with my own eyes that the agitated man suddenly became quiet when he heard the sound of the bell. ”
After hearing Cheng Yuxi's description, Lou Yier pondered for a moment and said: "As far as I know about this soul bell, it does have the effect of confusing people's hearts, and people who are confused will often deny their relatives and let the soul bell manipulate them wholeheartedly until the end of their lives. ”
"Is there a solution?" Cheng Yuxi hurriedly asked.
"Yes, there is, but I've only heard about it from the mouths of Fanbang people, and I haven't practiced it yet." Lou Yile glanced down at the soul bell on the yellowed paper leaf, and then said: "Use the three-flavor cold herb and the three-flavor fire herb to fuse together to refine an elixir called the three-flavor pill of water and fire, give this pill to the person who is being controlled, once or twice, and don't let this person hear the sound of the soul bell, about seven days or so, it's okay." ”
It sounds very simple, but only Cheng Yuxi knows that the water and fire three-flavor pill alone is extremely difficult.
It is extremely difficult to fuse two herbs with different phases without stimulating their toxicity and maintaining their medicinal properties, not to mention, this elixir needs more than just one......
Cheng Yuxi frowned, and then said, "So that's the case, thank you Lord Holy Son." ”
Lou Yier waved his hand and said, "Miss Cheng doesn't need to be so polite to me. ”
After knowing roughly how to solve Yang Qianyu's father's situation, Cheng Yuxi immediately repaired a book, sent someone to send it to Yang Qianyu, and instructed Yang Qianyu that if he had the opportunity, it would be best to investigate the woman next to his father.
Pingcheng belongs to the Central Plains, and it is far away from Fanbang, why did Fanbang's things suddenly appear in that woman's hands and be used by her to deceive people's hearts?
After the messenger gave the letter to Yang Qianyu, Cheng Yuxi immediately returned to Luo Yi's small courtyard with Tang Xian and handed him the iron lump he had purchased in Xiao Cheng.
Luo Yi seemed to be happy and couldn't sleep because of this great news, his face was a little haggard, but when he saw the iron bump handed over by Cheng Yuxi, he still showed a happy smile on his face.
"That's right, that's it, that's it!" Luo Yi was holding this very ugly-looking iron bump in his hand, as if he had seen some treasure, and he was almost about to cry with excitement.
Cheng Yuxi looked at Luo Yi's appearance and asked calmly, "How long will it take to do it?" ”
Luo Yi rinsed the iron lump in his hand under the water, and while wiping the light gray powder on the surface of the iron lump, he said: "It will take about three days, and after three days, I will personally send it to Cheng's door!" ”
"No, you don't." Cheng Yuxi stopped Luo Yi directly, she said: "There is no need to send it to Cheng's door, if Mr. sends me a letter of repair after the Dan furnace is made, I will naturally come to pick it up in person." ”
Luo Yi nodded and said, "It's okay." ”
After briefly confirming a few things with Luo Yi, Cheng Yuxi took Tang Yi back to the street outside.
Because it was daytime, there seemed to be a market in the distance, Cheng Yuxi took Tang Shi straight to the market on a whim, thinking of letting Tang Yan feel the breath of fireworks in the world.
Tang Xi did feel it.
She was almost at a loss to stand in the crowd, and after everyone accidentally touched her, Tang Xi would look at her like a vigilant cat, looking at her coldly, and scared the other party who apologized again and again.
And although Cheng Yuxi rarely participated in such crowded group activities before she was reborn, she was still more lively than Tang Xi after all, pulling Tang Xi around to see some rouge gouache, lantern candy people and the like, while constantly buying some small pendants such as masks and sachets for Tang Shi.
Soon, Tang Shi was holding a bunch of things in his arms, and he was almost unstable.
Cheng Yuxi smiled lightly and put a black cat-faced mask on Tang Shi's head, and then smiled: "Tang Shi has become a cat now." ”
Under the mask, the corners of Tang Yan's mouth, which had always been a little tight, curved slightly, and she said softly: "Well, I've become a cat." ”
After wandering around the market for a while, the two of them found a stall selling Yangchun noodles and sat down, shouting two bowls of Yangchun noodles and two small bowls of sour plum soup.
The sour plum soup came up first, and Cheng Yuxi lowered her head and took a sip, only to feel that the cold and sweet taste continued to spread in her mouth, making her whole person feel very good.
Tang Xi has always been more casual and has no preferences, so even if he tasted the sour plum soup, his eyebrows and eyes softened a little, and he didn't say much.
Cheng Yuxi had nothing to do, so she chatted with Tang Xi about a lot of strange things, most of which she heard about on some wild notes, which made Tang Xi listen to it with relish.
"Then, I heard that there is an eight-tailed demon fox over there in Qingqiu-"
"It's the nine-tailed demon fox, Miss Cheng."
Before Cheng Yuxi's words were finished, a warm male voice came from her ears, she turned her head to look, and saw a tall man wearing a light cyan shirt, smiling with his eyebrows and eyes, looking at her with lowered eyes.
"Mr. Zhao?" Cheng Yuxi said with some consternation: "Why are you here?" ”
The smile in Zhao Ziyi's eyes became even thicker, and he said softly: "A few children in the courtyard know that there is a market today, so they said that they wanted to come out to play, so I came to accompany them." ”
"Mr. Zhao is really liked by children." Cheng Yuxi patted the chair beside him, asked Zhao Ziyi to sit down, and then said: "If Zhao Ziyi has children in the future, I'm afraid he will become a handsome little son." ”
After Zhao Ziyi heard this, he looked at Cheng Yuxi for a moment, and suddenly said in a panic: "Uh, no, Miss Cheng don't say that!" ”
"Oh? Why is Mr. Zhao so flustered? Did you see the girl you like in this bazaar? Cheng Yuxi saw Zhao Ziyi's red face and red ears, and her mood improved, she teased: "Mr. Zhao is full of sage books, and the girl who can make Mr. Zhao's heart move is probably also a stunning beauty, right?" ”
Zhao Ziyi also heard the joke in Cheng Yuxi's tone, he sighed helplessly, and after saying hello to Tang Yan, who was drinking sour plum soup with his head bowed across the table, he said, "Hmm." Zhao's sweetheart is indeed a stunning beauty. ”
Cheng Yuxi could see that Zhao Ziyi was a little shy, and after amusing him, she also paid attention to the size of the hand, she said: "Since I came back from Xiao Cheng, I have been dealing with some things, so I didn't visit Mr. Zhao, and I ask Mr. Zhao to forgive me." ”
Zhao Ziyi nodded and said with a smile: "Miss Cheng doesn't have to be so polite, Zhao has often been a guest at Mr. Ouyang's house these days, if Miss Cheng really has time to come to Zhao, I'm afraid she will be empty." ”
After returning from Xiao Cheng, Cheng Yuxi had several exchanges with Ouyang Yu, but she had never heard of Zhao Ziyi from Ouyang Yu's mouth, so she asked very curiously: "In Mr. Ouyang's mansion?" ”
Zhao Ziyi nodded, and then said: "Don't hide it from Miss Cheng, in fact, when I was in Xiao Cheng, Ouyang Yu had already mentioned this matter to Zhao, and he wanted me to be the bookkeeper of his Ouyang family, and the monthly money he gave was also very generous." ”
"That's a good thing." Cheng Yuxi felt that Zhao Ziyi was fully qualified and competent, so he said, "Then did you agree?" ”
