When Su Liang and Zhou Chong went down the mountain, the snow fell even bigger, and the snowflakes floated in the sky and the earth, and soon covered everything with a layer of white, Su Liang looked around, and couldn't see where the conspicuous white carriage of the National Teacher's Mansion was for a while, or the Taoist waiter sitting outside the carriage, saw Su Liang first, and drove the carriage directly.

"Miss Su, the snow is getting heavier and heavier, why don't you go back to the National Master's Mansion today." After Su Liang and Zhou Chong got into the carriage, the Taoist waiter looked at the goose feathers and heavy snow outside and proposed with some concern.

"Okay." Su Liang had a good time in the mountains, sitting in the carriage a little reluctant to move, and turned his head to look at Zhou Chongzhi, "What about you?" ”

Zhou Chongzhi thought for a while and said, "Ah Liang can go back to the inn with me first?" The matter of that jar still needs to be studied with Chu Ci, and it is better to solve it as soon as possible. ”

Su Liang thought about it, then nodded in agreement, "Then go to the inn." ”

The Taoist attendant in the car didn't say anything, and said something to the Taoist attendant who was driving, and the carriage drove in the direction of the inn, only occasionally looking at Zhou Chongzhi's eyes, quite dissatisfied.

Zhou Chongzhi was a little helpless, and couldn't help but reflect on whether he was really unlikable.

There was nothing to say all the way, and when he arrived at the inn, Zhou Chongzhi knocked on Chu Ci's door, only to see a messy hair and a smear of ash on his face without knowing that Chu Ci opened the door blankly, and saw that it was Zhou Chongzhi who asked with some surprise, "Didn't you go out with Su Liang to play?" Why did you come back so early? ”

"Something happened, Ah Liang came back with me." Zhou Chongzhi turned sideways, revealing Su Liang behind him.

Chu Ci scratched his head violently, "Why don't you bring someone back and don't say it in advance, really, I haven't freshened up yet!" After slamming the door shut, Zhou Chongzhi calmly looked at the door that almost slapped on his face, turned his head and explained to Su Liang: "Chu Ci is this kind of character, once he starts researching, he forgets to sleep and eat, and the day and night are reversed. ”

Su Liang nodded, expressing understanding, "Sometimes I practice for several days without realizing it. ”

After a while, the door was opened, and Chu Ci regained his appearance as a handsome young man, greeted Su Liang with a smile and asked, "What's wrong?" ”

Su Liang waved his hand and took out the jar, Chu Ci looked at Su Liang's hand in surprise, and looked at Su Liang's jade ring with bright eyes, "Oh my God, the storage ring, Su Xian is really convenient, it would be nice if I could use it too." ”

"Less poor." Zhou Chongzhi knotted the jar and handed it to Chu Ci, "Look at this." ”

"What's so nice about a broken jar...... Chu Ci took the jar a little unconcerned, and when he turned it over and over again, he only felt ordinary, and he turned it up and down twice, "It's quite heavy." ”

"There is a formation carved on it, and I look at it, it looks like the technique of the academy." Zhou Chongzhi stopped Chu Ci's move of wanting to throw twice.

Chu Ci scratched his head, "Wait a while, I'll test it." After speaking, he ran back to the house with the jar, Zhou Chongzhi and Su Liang also followed, only to see a mess in the room, all kinds of strange things were piled up on the table at random, Chu Ci pushed the things on the table to the side at will, put the jar up, and turned out two strange short sticks from the corner, the front end was a crystal clear transparent color lens, and there was a dark gold metal grip at the end. The two short sticks faced each other with a faint halo of light intertwined with each other, and finally connected into a thin layer of light film, Chu Ci carefully swept this layer of light film from top to bottom to sweep the jar, only to see that where the light film swept, the thin lines gradually lit up, outlining a complex magic circle.

When the entire jar was swept by the light film, a complete magic circle appeared on the jar, gold and black intertwined, and there was an inexplicable sense of bewilderment.

Chu Ci threw the things in his hand aside, carefully looked at the lines on the jar, and finally looked at Zhou Chongzhi with some surprise, "What is in here?" The jar itself is a sealed and moisture-proof material, and the magic circle on the jar is even more shockproof, breakable, and odor-proof, which is tighter than the cabinet of ancient books in the academy. ”

"It's a poison." Su Liang pressed the mouth of the jar and stopped Chu Ci from opening it, "A smell can affect people's poison. ”

"So amazing?" Chu Ci's eyes lit up a little, and then he shook his head, "It's a pity that I don't know much about medicine, it would be nice if Lu'er was here, but this moment of technique does come from the academy, but this is not right, who in the academy will be idle to do this, by the way, where did you get this jar." ”

"It was originally a unique secret recipe of Zuixianglou, Ah Liang saw that something was wrong, verified the toxicity on the spot, and took it back." Zhou Chongzhi told Chu Ci about the morning.

Chu Ci scratched his head, and said with some doubts: "That's even more wrong, except for me, almost no one else in the academy is interested in eating, how can it be related to the secret recipe of the restaurant?" ”

"Since you can't think of it, ask someone who knows." Su Liang looked at Chu Ci, who had no clue, thought for a while, and said, "The owner of Zuixiang Mansion was finally taken away by Li Baoying. ”

Zhou Chongzhi nodded, "That's the only way to go." ”

"I took the jar." Su Liang waved his hand and put away the jar on the table, "If nothing else, I'll go back." ”

Zhou Chongzhi thought about it, but didn't come up with a good reason, so he had to say, "Then I'll send you." ”

"No, you don't." Su Liang turned around and went downstairs, got into the carriage and drove towards the National Teacher's Mansion.

Seeing Su Liang leave without any nostalgia, Chu Ci put his hands around his chest, looked Zhou Chongzhi up and down quite exaggeratedly, let out a smack sound in his mouth, shook his head and sighed: "I didn't expect it, Chongzhi, you also have today." ”

"What's wrong?" Zhou Chongzhi narrowed his eyes a little dangerously.

Chu Ci couldn't stop smiling on his face, "On weekdays, relying on your face, the teachers in the academy up to the nineties, down to the nine-year-old girls, all favor you, how have I seen you stick to it like this, and treat you such a cold girl." ”

"Chu Ci." Zhou Chongzhi patted Chu Cixiao's trembling shoulder, "You're right, such a cold Ah Liang really hurts my heart, I've been in a bad mood lately, I can't help you see if the aura is stable." Then Shi Shiran turned around and left.

"Huh? No, Chongzhi, I'll just make a joke, don't, Chongzhi, don't go, can't I be wrong? Chongzhi! Chu Ci suddenly wanted to slap himself, and chased Zhou Chongzhi out in a little hurry.

Lin Xiao, who happened to come back, looked at Chu Ci inexplicably, and asked strangely, "What's wrong?" ”

Chu Ci sighed and told him what had just happened, and Lin Xiao looked at Chu Ci's eyes with disgust, "Yes, you have this mouth." ”

Chu Ci was quite unconvinced, "Don't you think it's funny?" That's Zhou Chongzhi. ”

Lin Xiao nodded, "It's funny, but I'm not stupid enough to laugh in front of people." ”

Chu Ci was a little deflated, "Then what should I do, if Chongzhi doesn't help me, what if I blow up the furnace again?" I finally got the materials, but I can't blow them up. ”

"Don't worry." Lin Xiao straightened his sleeves, quite gloating, "Anyway, you've blown up several times, and there will always be some feel when you blow up too much." ”

Chu Ci was angry, no longer paying attention to Lin Xiao, who was watching the excitement, and chased after Zhou Chongzhi with teary eyes.

As soon as Su Liang returned to the National Teacher's Mansion here, Tan Ling came over with an invitation, "This is Wang's post, tomorrow is the ninetieth birthday of the old lady of the Wang family, and you sent it not long after you left the house today." ”

Su Liang took the post and asked with some confusion: "I don't know her, why did you invite me?" ”

"Naturally, it's because you're the daughter of a great master." Tan Ling's smiling eyebrows and eyes were crooked, and there was an inexplicable kindness in her eyes when she looked at Su Liang, "In addition to you, Yun Langjun has a copy there, and the little national teacher also has a copy there, but the little national teacher is used to not going to these banquets, there is a list of guests in this post, you can take a look, whether you want to go or not, whatever you want." ”

Su Liang looked at the list on the post, and after seeing the name of the third princess, he was quite strange, "Ah Zhao told me that the Wang family is not compatible with the third princess, why did she also come to the Wang family's banquet?" ”

"The relationship between the three princes and the nine kings of Wangcheng and the family is complicated, how can they stop coming and going because of the festivals of the juniors." Tan Ling and Su Liang explained carefully, "The cruise banquet of the three princesses has always only invited the Langjun girls of the same generation, and the Wang family's generation only has Wang Shi'an, who is a lone seedling, and he is used to being a little arrogant, but he is not in good health, he teased the third princess a few years ago, and since then the third princess has never invited him, even with the Wang family's side. ”

Su Liang nodded, he couldn't make such a steady third princess angry, and he didn't know what kind of trick it was.

"What's more, this is the birthday banquet of the old lady of the Wang family, the old lady is the mother of Wang Chenggong, almost the highest ranking person in the royal city, or the birthday banquet of the whole year, it is estimated that even the king will show up, that is, there will be another festival, and the third princess is also coming, do you want to go?"

Su Liang swiped his finger over Li Baoying's name at the back of the list, and remembered that he still had to ask her about the jar, so he returned the post to Tan Ling, "Go." ”

"Yes, then I'll prepare it for you, after all, it's a birthday banquet, and you still have to bring some gifts, and you have to wear formal clothes." Tan Ling was a little happy, in the past, the little national teacher didn't go to these banquets, if Su Liang went, he could also follow and see.

Su Liang nodded and went back to the guest room.

In the room, Liqing was sitting on a chair, and when he saw Su Liang coming in, he raised his eyebrows and said in disgust: "Wearing this ugly clothes to death again?" ”

"Get used to it." Su Liang was quite accustomed to Liqing's behavior of picking and choosing when he saw him, and asked, "Why are you here?" ”

"The entire National Teacher's Mansion is mine, where can I go?" Liqing raised his chin quite proudly, looked at Su Liang a little provocatively, and gradually lost under Su Liang's calm gaze, pursed his mouth, and asked a little reluctantly: "You have been out all day, I naturally want to see when you will come back." ”

Su Liang smiled when he heard this, and touched Liqing's head, "You know, don't worry about me." ”

"I know." Liqing looked at Su Liang a little uncomfortably, "You were raised by that dog, even if you are not a Su Xian, you have the ability to protect yourself, but the Lang Jun of the Zhou family obviously has other intentions." ”

"It doesn't matter." Su Liang sat opposite Liqing, "He has no ill intentions. ”

Li Qing snorted coldly when he heard this, and didn't mention this anymore, "You're going to tomorrow's banquet?" ”

"Hmm." Su Liang took out the jar, and told Liqing about what happened during the day, "I'm going to ask Li Baoying where the jar came from." ”

Liqing looked at the jar and was a little curious, "Is it really as powerful as you say?" ”

"Yes." Su Liang put away the jar and recalled, "There was a record on that jade slip that the harm of this poison is not to make people crazy, but there are some unclear ones in the back, in short, it is very harmful." ”

"Okay." Liqing nodded, got up and stretched, "Then you can rest early, the banquet is very tiring." ”

Su Liang nodded, and after seeing Liqing leave, he blew out the lamp and went to bed to rest.
