Volume 2 The Phantom Flower of the World Chapter 30 Return to the old home
Zhu'an was really surprised by this matter, after all, in the legends of the rivers and lakes, the whereabouts of the Phantom Flower Palace were secret, as if separated by a veil of mystery, no one knew how many people there were in the Phantom Flower Palace, but presumably others were the same as Zhu'an, and felt that the Phantom Flower Palace had such a big influence, it must be a low-key and mysterious organization, and I never expected that there were only two people in the Phantom Flower Palace, which was really unexpected.
After walking through the deep corridor, the sight suddenly opened, as far as the eye could see was a huge round stone palace, eight huge pillars stood quietly crawling full of flower branch totems, rows of carved shelves lit candles, the top of the hall was inlaid with countless bright night pearls, the candlelight and pearl light complemented each other, shocking and beautiful, the hall was as bright as day. The pillars of the main hall are connected to a deep corridor leading to the depths of the stone palace.
The corridor they walked out of was one of them, and there was a carved stone door on the opposite wall that led to the back courtyard that Dream Weaver had spoken of.
Zhu'an looked at everything in front of him and had a strange feeling in his heart, this stone palace was magnificent, but it was very empty and silent, like a huge ...... Grave.
Sure enough, as Weaving Dream said, it was empty, and there was no one.
At this time, she returned to the Phantom Flower Palace, where Weaving Dream has lived since she was a child, but now everything in the Phantom Flower Palace is the same, but the people are gone, and things and people are inevitably touching the scene, she sighed lowly.
Zhu An just wanted to comfort her, but saw Weaving Dream open his arms and pointed around the palace, "This broken stone palace is empty, why haven't I seen a little treasure?"
“......”
Although the decoration of the stone hall is very ornate and exquisite, it is true that it has not yet reached the level of being a treasure.
Even, the sound of weaving dreams echoed a few times in the empty stone hall.
Weaving Dream suddenly felt that her action was very boring, and laughed again, she turned around and walked to a long corridor on the left, "Zhu'an, help him over." ”
Zhu'an helped Rong Lian to follow Weaving Dream and walked in, the candlestick on the wall of the corridor was equipped with a mechanism, the original deep corridor was very dark, as they walked in, one by one the candles lit up in turn, very interesting.
After the candle flame illuminates the corridor, the sight is much clearer, and there are many stone rooms on both sides of the corridor, some of the stone doors are hidden, some are open, and most of them are empty stone rooms.
Dream weaver walked to the deepest part of the corridor, pushed open a closed stone door, and led them inside.
The stone room was more spacious than expected, with many tall cabinets, and as soon as he entered, he knew that this was the room where the medicinal herbs were placed, because there was a strong and bitter medicinal fragrance.
"The medicinal materials stored in the Phantom Flower Palace are here, my brother will see if there is anything that can be used for him. ”
Zhu'an placed Rong Lian on the couch beside him, walked around the cabinets with Zhimeng to select, Zhu'an selected the medicinal materials, and Zhimeng put them on a porcelain plate on the side.
"Luckily, the herbs here are helpful. Weaving Dream held the plate of herbs and looked closer.
Zhu'an nodded and took the plate, "There are all kinds of medicinal materials here, and it is indeed convenient to treat Rong Liangong's injuries." ”
Weaving Dream led him to the right side of the stone room, pushed open a stone door in the corner, and arrived at another connected stone room.
"This has a stove where you can decoct medicine. ”
Zhu'an carefully prepared the medicinal materials, washed a small medicine jar, put the medicinal materials in it, added water, and simmered on the fire, and after a while, it was steaming.
He looked up at the window of the stone chamber, and as far as he could see was a quiet courtyard, full of flowers and trees, and a pool of turquoise in the middle.
Zhu'an pointed to a big locust tree against the wall, "Is this the tree you used to climb the wall when you were a child?"
Weaving Dream looked in the direction he pointed, a huge locust tree was growing luxuriantly, and the branches had stretched over the wall, she smiled and nodded: "Yes, it's this big locust tree! Isn't it particularly like a ladder! Look, there is a peach blossom tree next to it, and my master sits under the flower tree to meditate and cultivate, ah, by the way, every time I sneak away to play and come back, I am often caught by the master......
As if habitual dictated, Weaving Dream said it naturally, she was suddenly stunned, her expression dimmed, the Phantom Flower Stone Palace is still there, the big locust tree used to climb the wall is still there, and the peach blossom tree is still there, but things are not people, and she is the only one left in this Phantom Flower Palace now.
No matter what kind of feelings Weaving Dream has for Hana now, she and her master will never see each other again in this life.
Originally, there were only two people in the Phantom Flower Palace for generations, and it was already very lonely, but now there is only one person left, how lonely it must be.
Caught in the memories of Weaving Dreams seemed to have fallen into a cold abyss, and her eyes were overcast.
The world is so painful and lonely.
Suddenly, she felt a warmth coming from the top of her hair, pulling her out of the cold. Zhu An stretched out his hand and stroked her hair gently, looking at her seriously, "Sounds interesting, but it's a pity that I didn't know you when I was a child, otherwise we can try to climb a tree together!"
Hearing this, the gloom in Zhimeng's eyes dispersed, and he said funny: "I didn't expect you to be so interested in climbing trees, haven't you climbed them when you were a child?"
"Yes, when I was a child, I only had medical books and medicinal materials every day, which was very boring. Zhu'an replied very seriously and sincerely, quietly diverting the attention of Weaving Dreams.
Weaving Dream tilted his head and smiled: "Then let's try it another day!"
Zhu An also replied with a gentle smile, "Okay, but not today, you must be tired after climbing the mountain for a day, go to rest!" I looked at the decoction. ”
Weaving Dream felt a little more relaxed, and nodded obediently, "Then I'll go and see if he's awake." ”
"Okay, let's go. ”
Pushing open the door of the stone chamber and weaving dreams and walking back to the edge of the collapse, Rong Lian was still asleep, her face was still as pale as snow, her beautiful eyes were tightly closed, her long eyelashes were like butterflies perching silently, and her eyebrows looked gratuitously gentle.
His hair was like ink, and it had become a little messy in the fight, and there was a strand of broken hair that hung down to his cheeks, and his purple brocade robe was stained with blood.
Weaving Dream sat aside and watched for a while, still feeling that this strand of hair was very affecting his vision.
She reached out softly, trying to pull the strand of hair behind her ear.
She stretched out her hand, and just touched the soft strand of broken hair, suddenly Rong Pian's long eyelashes trembled, a pair of eyes like black jade opened, and her gaze quietly fell on the fingers stretched out by Weaving Dreams.
Weaving Dream was a little embarrassed, should this hand be withdrawn immediately or should he continue to sort out his hair as if nothing happened.
They looked at each other for a while, and when they looked at it closely, Rong Lian's Danfeng eyes were really very enchanting and beautiful, and she could clearly see her reflection in her black jade-like eyes.
Fortunately, Rong Lian suddenly coughed, and Weaving Dream's hand took the opportunity to pat him on the back and smooth him out.
Whether Rong Lian was intentional or unintentional, she was embarrassed.
"Are you alright?"
"Ahem...... It's okay...... Ahem, thank you girl for saving me......" Rong Lian spoke intermittently, coughing as Zhu'an said, her cheeks flushed, as if peach blossoms were blooming on her face.
"It's okay, just passing by. ”
"Ahem, the girl who gave flowers...... I don't know your name yet. ”
The girl who gave flowers? It turns out that this is what Fang Rongpian said when he fainted, and he suddenly realized that he was weaving dreams.
"Weaving dreams. ”
"Dream weaving......" Rong Lian closed her eyes, read it silently, and then said politely: "Then thank you Dream Weaving girl for saving her life." ”
"You don't need to thank me, it's you who saved you, his medical skills are very good, I just provided some medicinal materials, nothing was done. ”
Seeing that he was coughing uncomfortably, Weaving Dream got up and poured a glass of warm water and carefully fed him to drink.
"Zhu'an, did you meet the boy who was with you a few days ago?"
Weaving Dream smiled and nodded, "Hmm." It's him. ”
Just as Zhu'an came out with the medicine, he walked to the front of the collapse, "Young Master Rong, drink some medicine." ”
"Ahem, I'm tired. ”
He carefully lifted Rong Lian, tried to avoid the wounds on his body, and fed him the medicine.
After a bowl of medicine bottomed out, Rong Lian felt that the bloody feeling in his lungs had been removed a lot, and the cough was not so frequent, so he thanked him again.
Zhu An helped him lie down, put the medicine bowl down, and Wen Yan asked, "Are you better?"
Rong Lian said gratefully: "It's already a lot better, thank you." ”
"The situation is urgent, so I brought Childe back first, Childe suffered a lot of internal injuries, so I went to decoct the medicine first, and now I am dealing with Childe's external injuries. ”
Rong Lian thanked patiently and carefully again.
Zhu'an treated his wounds for him, and Weaving Dream handed things to the side.
Rong Lian watched Zhu'an busy, covered her lips and coughed twice, "I am very grateful for the grace of saving my life, dare to ask where we are now?"
The two quickly exchanged glances, and Zhu'an continued to deal with the wound, and Weaving Dream hesitated for a moment and replied, "Phantom Flower Palace." ”
Rong Lian showed a hint of surprise and said curiously: "How did I get to the Phantom Flower Palace? Could it be that the two of you are from the Phantom Flower Palace?"
Weaving Dream nodded and replied calmly: "I am, he is not." ”
Rong Lian said seriously: "The whereabouts of the legendary Phantom Flower Palace are secretive, and now they have taken the liberty of breaking in
I'm sorry. ”
Weaving Dream shook her head, "It's okay. I brought you here. ”
The apology on Rong Lian's face did not disappear, "Will it disturb the other palace people in the Phantom Flower Palace?"
With the same question as Zhu'an, everyone couldn't believe that such a mysterious organization as the Phantom Flower Palace would not have a palace person.
Weaving Dream shook his head, "There were only two people in the Phantom Flower Palace from beginning to end. ”
Rong Lian was slightly stunned, "There are only two people...... What a surprise. ”
Zhu An, who had been doing things quietly, suddenly asked, "Young Master Rong, why are you injured?"
Rong Lian frowned, and replied with some troubled feelings: " Do not hide the two, although under the family of rivers and lakes, but the family businessman also does a few small business, this trip is for business, a few days ago with you after separation, I first went to the city of Phantom Lake City to do things, and then came to Phantom Lake City, this and a local merchant made an appointment, from him to purchase goods, ready to expand business in Phantom Lake City, a few days ago received a letter from the merchant, his merchant ship just returned from the sea, to the east of the Phantom Lake City under the mountain can meet to inspect the goods, in the first time I came to the Lake City is not familiar with the Lake City, do not doubt him, I only brought a few slaves to the appointment, unexpectedly ambushed, the other party is large in number and ruthless, the servants are dead and wounded, and they are also wounded, thanks to the rescue of the two, they were able to escape the catastrophe. ”
Weaving Dream asked curiously, "What kind of grudge do you have against that merchant?"
Rong Lian seemed to remember something, and the beautiful Danfeng had some gloomy color in her eyes, and sighed and said, "Hey...... I'm ashamed that I didn't go to Phantom Lake City often before I went down, and Ben, who was unfamiliar with the place, was not ready to come here to do business. It's just that some time ago, a family that came and went sent people to recommend it many times, and the elders of the family also responded to it, and they matched me to contact the merchant of Phantom Lake City, and I was very grateful, but I didn't expect it to be ......."
Zhu An Wen said: "I'm sorry, it must be a family dispute, and it is inconvenient to tell outsiders." A few days ago, Gongzi and we had the affection to guide the way, and today I happened to meet Rong Gongzi who needed help, and since there is a relationship, how can we stand by and watch, Rong Gongzi does not have to take it to heart. ”
Weaving Dream nodded, and didn't ask any more, only said: "There is no one else in this Phantom Flower Palace, just recuperate with peace of mind."
"It's troublesome for two. Rong Lian rubbed her eyebrows tiredly and thanked her in a low voice.
After taking care of the wounds, Rong Pian was tired and fell into a deep sleep, and the two closed the door and walked out of the stone room.
The two walked together to the courtyard they had just seen, and took a slow walk by the pool.
As the sun sets, the courtyard is full of golden glow at dusk, and there are a few koi fish swimming leisurely in the reflection of the sunset in the pond.
Weaving Dream whispered, "Brother, is there a problem with this mercy?"
Zhu'an shook his head, "You just told me frankly, it's a try, he didn't have any strange reaction after hearing it, but was slightly surprised, and his expression was natural." ”
Weaving Dream also said: "Well, I look at him like the same, unlike those people on the rivers and lakes who want to explore the secret treasures of the Phantom Flower Palace, they are not interested. ”
Standing with his hands in his hands, watching the fish in the pond scramble for food, the reflection of the sunset was shattered by the fish, and the pool surface was sparkling like broken gold, he said in a deep voice: "The time of his appearance is too coincidental to make people care, but his expression and demeanor are casual and natural, not like a fake, just asked, he answered naturally, too perfect or full of loopholes The answer must be problematic, but he advanced and retreated properly, and told frankly what should be said, and did not say a word that should not be said, although there are some words that cannot be verified for the time being, but it is true that people can't find fault with it." ”
Weaving Dream nodded, "Well, if the merchant in the city lies, you will know it when you check it, he shouldn't make up such a lie that can be broken at the first poke." ”
The two of them went to the Phantom Flower Palace to investigate the boiling Phantom Flower Treasure spread in the rivers and lakes to see if they could stop the development of the situation, so they still paid attention to the Rong Pian who was accidentally saved on the road.
Zhu'an pondered for a moment, "Well, if that's the case, you can get along normally." ”
After weaving dreams finished sprinkling fish food, he clapped his hands, and suddenly thought of something, "By the way, didn't my brother say that he suffered from peach blossom tuberculosis, presumably such a person is more concerned about life and death than treasures or something." ”
Zhu'an nodded, feeling sorry for this, "Maybe you're right." I just took his pulse, and his peach blossom tuberculosis seemed to be a stubborn disease brought out of his mother's womb, and he must have endured a lot of pain. can be seen that Rong Gongzi has such a demeanor, presumably because he is open-minded and looks down on life and death, and it is not easy to admire such a heart. Birth, old age, sickness and death are uncontrollable, and we try our best to pay attention to the flavor of the medicine for him. ”
"Well, then brother, you can teach me to recognize some herbs. ”
