Volume 3: Immortal Realm Chapter 223: Misunderstanding
"Ahem! I was just ...... Just for the sake of your reputation, nothing else. You also know that this is Princess Qianyue's Mansion, and if you rashly bring a woman into your room, it is really not a good thing for you. Her Royal Highness explained with some stumbling eyes.
Ye Shubai said with a bitter face: "Thank you, Your Highness, for your concern, it's just that this matter is a long story, let's talk about it when we enter the house." ”
She was a little surprised, but she followed him into the room.
A small room, maybe it was originally for the people in the house to live, at this time there was a beautiful face lying on the bed, closed eyes and sleeping woman, it was not unusual for a woman to lie on the bed, what was strange was that she was wearing a night dress, and the clothes were scabbed with blood, and there were some blood stains on her face, and Yun Yaya was also stunned all of a sudden: "Ye Shubai, who is this person? What happened to you?"
"Her name is Mu Qingluan, she is my senior sister, when she was in the Beiyue Sect, she was the apprentice of Miao Shanben, who was in charge of the Danyao Hall, I have worked with her, and I am not too familiar. Ye Shubai said.
Yun Ya said curiously: "Then why did she appear in my cousin's house?"
Ye Shubai scratched his head: "It seems that she stole something, oh, by the way, it's called Yaoxia Cao, and then she was arrested by the people of the princess's mansion and tortured." ”
"So, you got her out of prison, right?"
Ye Shubai nodded.
Yun Yaya's expression was a little strange: "You don't want to help a thief, do you?" ”
Ye Shubai's face was slightly red, at the beginning, he dealt with the problem purely from the perspective of helping a fellow senior sister, plus this matter involved the fairy world and human beings, Ye Shubai had a preconceived idea, and regarded Mu Qingluan as a victim from the beginning, and now Yun Yaya reminded her that this girl may be a thief, and she can't help but be secretly entangled, but now she has to find a way to save people, as for right and wrong, that is a matter for the future.
"Your Highness, now I want to find a way to revive her, can I talk about other things later?" Ye Shubai said.
Yun Yaya also understood, and nodded, in fact, as long as there was no relationship between men and women between this woman and Ye Shubai, more or less she would go to a heart disease, and said, "Okay, I'll ask them for some medicine." ”
Mu Qingluan had a fever because of a wound infection, Ye Shubai knew it, and Yun Yaya asked the captain of the guard for the gold medicine and handed it to him. Ye Shubai thanked him, but he was worried again, and cast a look at Yun Yaya for help.
She sighed softly: "You go out." ”
Ye Shubai was amnesty and quickly slipped away.
After this toss, it was already late at night, and after Yun Yaya gave Mu Qingluan good medicine, the thought of wanting to say something to Ye Shubai was gone, so he had to go back and rest.
The theft of the princess's mansion should cause a commotion, at least the guards or families in the mansion will be on guard. But the strange thing is that Ye Shubai didn't hear the slightest movement in this regard. The house was so quiet that it seemed like nothing had happened. Ye Shubai couldn't help but be secretly surprised.
Since it takes an opportunity to go to Tianjing Lake, it is not good for Yun Yaya to rush to Tianjing Lake after arriving at the princess's mansion. Therefore, Yun Yaya can only rest in the princess's mansion for a few days, spend a short time with her cousin's parents, and then at a casual moment, talk about the beautiful scenery of Muyue Prefecture, and then talk about Tianjing Lake, and finally take this opportunity to go. However, Muyue Prefecture is very large, and although Tianjing Lake is also within the scope of Muyue Prefecture, it is still two thousand miles away from the state capital where the princess's mansion is located. For example, my cousin also has to follow me and so on.
The princess's mansion was calm for three days, and on the third day, Mu Qingluan's fever subsided, and people gradually came to their senses. For Ye Shubai's inquiring gaze, Mu Qingluan said: "I didn't steal the property of Princess Qianyue Mansion at all, I found the Yaoxia grass in Yunyao Mountain, but on the way back to Beiyue Mountain, I was robbed by Hu Hu of the Princess's Mansion, I followed all the way, just to take away what originally belonged to me, I didn't steal anything from the Princess's Mansion." ”
Ye Shubai groaned slightly, and said: "No wonder they ran away, but they didn't dare to make a noise, it turned out to be this kind of filthy thing." After a pause, he said, "What kind of herb is Yaoxia Grass, and is it worth your journey all the way here to take it?"
Mu Qingluan's expression was slightly gloomy: "Shopkeeper Miao's son is sick again, Shopkeeper Miao needs alchemy to renew his son's life, so he lacks this flavor of Yaoxia grass." Within three months, I had already searched for many places, and finally found this herb in Yunyao Mountain, and I didn't expect this to happen. After speaking, he let out a long breath, and the meaning of exhaustion was overflowing.
Ye Shubai also sighed secretly, Miao Shanben's son was a sick tuberculosis since he hit his mother's womb, thanks to Miao Shanben being an alchemy maniac, and he repeatedly used pills to renew his son's life. It is also because he is in charge of the Danyao Hall in Beiyue Mountain and has this convenient condition, so he has been able to continue his life for more than ten years. For this reason, Old Man Miao was not less reprimanded by the sect master Ji Wuguo, saying that his son had wasted many of the sect's herbal resources. However, Old Man Miao is still the same, for the sake of his son's life, he doesn't know how much pressure he has endured from Ji Wu.
As a disciple of Miao Shanben, Mu Qingluan's main responsibility is, of course, to collect medicine for the Danyao Hall, and of course, he collects medicine for the master's son with private goods. Over the years, she has traveled all over the mountains and rivers, and the whole thing is just a medicine collection machine, and it is a lie to say that she is not tired. It is impossible to say that there is not the slightest resentment. When she was trapped here, she thought that this was not bad, and that she would be freed if she died.
Ye Shubai asked, "Is that Yaoxia grass a very precious herb?"
Mu Qingluan nodded and said, "This herb has the reputation of immortal ginseng in medicine, and it is a very precious herb. ”
"No wonder you're being targeted, so where did you hide the Yaoxia grass?"
"That day I sneaked into the princess's mansion, and it took a lot of effort to find the Yaoxia grass, and then when I escaped from the princess's mansion, I hid it in a wild place, and then I was intercepted by Hu Hu, who was following me, and I couldn't beat him, so he caught him. Alas, all these years, I have been looking for herbs for the Dan Medicine Hall, and my cultivation has been standing still, without any progress. It's just that in this situation, whether I have the life to get out alive or not is between the two!"
"Don't worry, when you recover a little more, I will definitely send you out safely. They lost people, and they didn't dare to make a noise, so naturally they didn't think that people were still in the princess's mansion, so it was safe here for the time being. ”
"Senior brother, I heard that you fell into the bottomless abyss, is it true?"
"Well, you may wonder how I survived, but some things are so amazing that I can't explain them for a while. ”
When Ye Shubai was sacrificed, Mu Qingluan didn't go to Hongmeng Town to watch the sacrifice ceremony, so she didn't know Ye Shubai's situation, when she heard that her junior brother was used as a sacrifice, like many sect disciples, she was angry and sad for a while. Later, due to all the troubles, she gradually forgot about it. Now that I suddenly saw my junior brother come back alive, I was not only happy, but also full of doubts. But since it was inconvenient for the other party to say, she didn't ask anymore. Anyway, as long as the person is alive, nothing else matters.
After seven or eight days in the princess's mansion, no one came to the small courtyard where Ye Xibai lived to inquire about anything, and the matter was over. Mu Qingluan's injuries are already getting better. So on a morning when the sun was rising, Ye Shubai took her out of the princess's mansion, and only said goodbye to her when she got the hidden Yaoxia grass.
"Senior brother, I don't know what Elder Su's family has done, but I know that you are a good person, and Elder Su is also a good person, I hope you good people will be rewarded. "Parting is an unhappy thing in the end, Mu Qingluan said lightly with a sad face.
Ye Shubai smiled: "Thank you! I hope you take care too." After a pause, he said, "Actually, for so many years, you have been collecting medicine for the sect outside, and you should be tired." I mean, if, if you feel tired of this kind of life, you can go to Luoxi Valley to find Su Qing, Elder Su's family is living a secluded life there, although it can't be said to be a paradise, but it's not a poor mountain and bad water, anyway, life is quite leisurely. ”
"Really?" Mu Qingluan's eyes lit up, and she was a little moved.
Ye Shubai nodded.
Mu Qingluan's expression then gloomy, and she shook her head, she was an orphan abandoned on the side of the road, and it was the shopkeeper Miao who picked her up, raised her as an adult, and taught her martial arts. Miao Shan's origin is her, and she is also a master and a father, and she can't leave no matter what.
Ye Shubai knew her life experience, so he couldn't say anything more?
"Senior brother, maybe I won't go to Luoxi Valley alone, I will bring Master over with me, after all, in the Beiyue Sect, his old man has been under too much pressure. I know he's tired too. Mu Qingluan suddenly felt a little excited.
Ye Shubai nodded and smiled: "Okay! If you can fool Old Man Miao to Luoxi Valley, it will be great." ”
Mu Qingluan sighed faintly, waved lightly at Ye Shubai, and turned to leave.
There was no goodbye, no need to cherish words like that, and they parted like this.
Ye Shubai looked at her distant shadow, and his heart was also a little empty, and his heart was full of pathos for a while.
The world is like a tide, and people are like water!
On an early morning morning, the sky was bright and the morning light was quiet. Her Royal Highness the princess stepped on the chariot pulled by the phoenix bird and set off towards Tianjing Lake in the north of Muyue Prefecture.
The distance of 2,000 miles, even if it is pulled by a phoenix bird, soaring in the air, it also takes half a day for the chariot to arrive.
