Chapter 80: Encountering Face-to-Face

On the edge of the clear and shallow pool, the face is covered with white veil, and the girl in a white dress is quiet and independent, with a slight coldness between her eyebrows, like a lotus flower on a snow-capped mountain, silently pouring out her loneliness.

Suddenly, there was a series of footsteps, and the sound was actually straight towards the pearl charm by the waterhole, but the latter still stood in place calmly, did not turn back, and did not even come back to his senses.

The footsteps disappeared a few steps away from Zhu Mei, and a slightly delicate voice sounded: "You are what kind of miracle doctor invited by this Hou Mansion, and you actually cured their wife's illness?

Zhu Mei's frost-like willow eyebrows rose slightly, obviously this woman's arrogant words disturbed her calm mood at the moment, but Zhu Mei has been practicing for many years, and she will not be impetuous, not to mention that she also encountered the teahouse two days ago, so that Zhu Mei is soberly aware that she must be able to control the resentment in her heart and body, once they go wild, the ending will be very terrible.

However, the woman didn't know that Zhu Mei was enduring hard work at the moment, and after seeing Zhu Mei's ignorance of it, she immediately became angry. Her two soft long arms were wrapped around her chest, her voice was raised, and her voice became more and more unpolite: "What? Afraid that I will expose your indiscriminate deception, and you will not even dare to show your face? In this case, then you obediently pick up your tail and leave here quickly, don't hinder me from exorcizing ghosts." ”

Thinking of this, the woman had a fire in her belly, originally in the past few days in the Hou Mansion to exorcise ghosts, but also quite effective, who knew that this morning the Hou Mansion lady suddenly became more ill, although she knew that it was caused by the evil spirit, but the evil spirit was very powerful, with her ability is not enough to subdue the evil spirit. After the accident, the Hou Mansion suddenly turned her face and denied anyone, saying that she was a liar who cheated on food and drink, and wiped out all her hard work in the past few days. It's just that the people in this Hou Mansion repay their grievances with virtue, she is a person who cultivates immortals, and she can not care about mortals in general, and the most unbearable thing for her is that they actually invited a doctor to come to the door, and this doctor also threatened to cure the lady's illness in less than an hour. Now the news that Madame was rescued by the veiled girl invited to come back to life flew like wings to every corner of the Hou Mansion. The entire Hou Mansion, which once regarded her as a guest, now no one pays attention to her, and even the eyes of the lowest-level little maid looking at her have become extremely strange, which is completely different from the admiration a few days ago, which makes her arrogant how to accept it!

Zhu Mei sighed softly, turned around, and a pair of clear water eyes stared at the woman in front of her with a dull color, the woman was green and pretty, but there was arrogance and arrogance in her eyes, which made it difficult for people to get close, it was Zhiyue who they met by chance under the corridor before.

Zhiyue raised her head and looked at the quiet and cold pearl charm in front of her, those cold eyes made her feel weak in an instant, but she thought about it, the lady of the Hou Mansion was indeed haunted by evil spirits, with her many years of cultivation in the Inviting Moon Immortal Mansion, she still couldn't subdue it, and looking at the other party's breath, it seemed that there was no cultivation, so it was even more impossible to tame the evil spirits. Zhi Yue said in her heart, even if you are the reincarnation of a divine doctor, it is impossible to save that lady!

Therefore, she raised her chin confidently: "If you can't give me a satisfactory explanation today, you don't want to leave here." ”

Zhu Mei shook her head, "I have nothing to explain to you, since you and I are both trying to save the life of Mrs. Houfu, and now that she is alive, what does it matter who saved her?" besides," Zhu Mei looked directly at Zhiyue and slowly took a step forward, "If I want to leave, you can't keep me." "I want to leave.

Zhiyue took an unnatural step back in her calm voice without a trace of undulation, and when she came back to her senses, Zhu Mei had already passed by her, she gritted her teeth, and reflexively clasped Zhu Mei's shoulder, "Hmph, the tone is not small, I want to see if I can keep you and keep you!"

Zhiyue's other hand was raised, the palm of the hand was flattened, and luck was waiting to hit Zhu Mei, and on the other hand, Zhu Mei, although there was no movement, the cold air in her bright eyes had quietly brewed, and a hurricane seemed to be blowing in the depths of her pupils. Both sides are on the verge of triggering.

"Stop!" a light drink swept through the air, but when you listen closely, you can distinguish two voices. Then two figures flew from different directions and landed steadily on the edge of the waterhole.

When the figure stood still, the four of them were stunned. Nian Nian secretly gritted his teeth in his heart, what kind of luck was this, he tried his best to avoid these two people, and finally ran into them head-on. But in Fang Cai's situation, if he and Xuansheng in front of him don't appear, Zhu Mei and Zhiyue are likely to fight, which is not fun.

At this time, Zhiyue may not have imagined that every year's adventure appeared, but it was all for her good. After all, if Zhu Mei went violent, she would definitely be the first to suffer if she couldn't even clean up an evil spirit.

Xuan Sheng also reacted, he quickly walked to Zhiyue's side, pulled her behind him, and regardless of Zhiyue's face at this time, he arched his hand to Zhu Mei and Nian Nian in embarrassment: "Two girls, I'm really sorry." This is my sister, she rarely goes out at home all the year round, so she doesn't know the etiquette, if there is something offended, in Xia Xuansheng here to make amends to the two girls, and I hope that the two of them will bear with me. ”

Looking at Xuan Sheng up and down year after year, he saw that his eyebrows and eyes were gentle and handsome, and he was dressed in a plain robe. Then he looked at Zhiyue, who was obviously unwilling behind him, and snorted coldly: "Your sister bullied my sister at will, what is the reason." You saw it just now, if it weren't for the two of us arriving in time, your sister would have to do it, and if she hurt my sister, what would she do?"

Xuan Sheng was a little embarrassed for a while, he was extremely bad at dealing with this kind of thing, and he was very restrained at this time. But Zhiyue didn't do it, and said loudly on tiptoe: "It's obviously a charlatan, why can't you do it! If you don't want to expose it, just leave by yourself, what is the reason for not leaving here, do you still want the Hou Mansion to pay you, I really don't know how to be ashamed." “

Xuan Sheng saw Nian Nian's clear and watery big eyes widen, and he was so frightened that he hurriedly turned around to stop Zhiyue. No matter what, Xuan Sheng's cultivation is higher than Zhiyue's, although he can't see the identity and cultivation of the two of them, but at least he knows that if he can subdue the evil spirit, there must be something different from ordinary people, so he lowered his voice at the moment, and his tone was slightly stern: "You are not allowed to say it again, Master ordered me to send you back to the Inviting Moon Immortal Mansion, although it is an escort, but it is also a caretaker." It's just a matter of letting you mess around here for a short time, if you don't know the right thing anymore, I will leave you alone, and finally can you go back to the Yuexian Mansion to see your eldest brother and second brother, I don't care!"

Zhiyue was slightly stunned for a moment when she saw Xuan Sheng, who was usually good-tempered, say such heavy words, and then stood aggrieved aggrieved, her ruddy little mouth flattened, although she was full of unwillingness, but she also knew that if she really took Xuan Sheng away, she didn't know the road by herself, and she wanted to return to Baimo thousands of miles away from the night alone, she didn't have the courage yet.

Listening to Zhiyue every year as a charlatan, I was very unhappy. But Zhu Mei gently tugged at her sleeve, turned her head and explained seriously to Xuan Sheng and Zhi Yue: "This girl, we are not charlatans. There are indeed ghosts living in this Hou Mansion, and we can get rid of this ghost now, thanks to the hard work of the girl some time ago, so this is not the credit of the two of us. As for what the girl said we deliberately stayed here to receive the reward," she glanced at each other, "we came with an old doctor, just to do him a favor, but now that the ghost has cleared up, and the favor has helped, I was here waiting for my sister to join us, and then we would have left together, and if the girl hadn't stopped me from doing it, we would have returned to the inn by now." Now that the misunderstanding has been discussed, the two of us will leave. “

The four of them made such a big move in the Hou Mansion, which naturally attracted many people to watch from the side. Those mothers-in-law and maids stood up a lot, and after listening to Zhu Mei's words, they all knew what was going on, so who was in charge and who didn't was naturally able to see at a glance, and there was a lot of discussion in the crowd at the moment.

"Isn't that the female Taoist priest who has been living in our house for the past few days, the one who exorcises ghosts? ”

"That's it, it's just a bad temper, the skills are not as good as others, and they don't humbly ask for advice, they are from Fushan, Fushan can actually teach this kind of disciple, and let her walk around, it's really embarrassing. ”

"You can't say that, you see the Taoist named Xuansheng next to her, a talent, Yushu is in the wind, which shows that Fushan is not so bad. As the saying goes, this master leads the door to practice in person, and she still blames her for her own poor cultivation. ”

"Look at these two girls, they don't take credit for saving people, they have a good temper, they look handsome, they look like fairies descending to earth, I really don't know how many times stronger than that female Taoist! ”

"That's it. ”

Everyone, you and I, speaking loudly and louder, Zhi Yue's face became more and more ugly in a group of discussions, Bei Yan bit her lower lip, her eyes were red, Xuan Sheng smiled wryly, all kinds of nervousness, a pair of smart big eyes swept around every year, full of curiosity, she had never been praised by so many people, and she didn't quite know why this should be praised for what should have been done, only Zhu Mei's face had been so calm, without the slightest wave.

Xuansheng looked at the pearl charm with admiration, and solemnly arched his hand: "In the lower Xuansheng, the Taoist people of Fushan." The girl's character is admired below, today's misunderstanding is all in the next is not, and please don't question the reputation of the Fushan Taoist Temple, and say goodbye in the next place, and hope to see you again in the future. ”

Zhu Mei also gave a salute, but Nian Nian quietly muttered in her heart: Who wants to see you again, it's best never to see you again.

After Xuan Sheng pulled Zhiyue and left in a hurry, the chatter in the crowd still did not stop, until a slightly deep voice sounded.

"What are you doing standing here, are you done?" Steward Wang walked out of the crowd, his slightly gloomy eyes swept towards everyone, and soon the crowd quietly dispersed, and silence returned to the waterhole.

Steward Wang walked forward quickly, and the old man followed behind him, "Two girls, please forgive me for the inadequacy of my Hou Mansion." At this time, the Hou Ye is not in the house, and the lady is also sick, if the two of you don't dislike it, please go to the guest room with me to rest for a while. ”

Nian Nian waved his hand, "We have other things, we don't need to rest, you just send us out." She still wanted to go to the market to cut a beautiful dress, and she didn't have the heart to stay here at the moment. Seeing the faint excitement flickering between her eyebrows, Zhu Mei guessed what she was thinking at the moment, and nodded with a smile.

The steward looked at the old man, and a trace of anxiety flashed in his eyes. The old man said happily at this moment: "The old man is also going to leave at this moment, but we are not familiar with the road, can Steward Wang send one to us?"

Steward Wang was naturally willing to lead the way in front. On the way, the old man suddenly asked, "I wonder if Steward Wang's younger brother is better now?"

Steward Wang was stunned for a moment, and then quickly reacted: "How can it be so easy, I'm afraid it's been heavier recently." ”

"Why is that? I remember the last time we met, it was better. ”

"Doctor, you don't know, you have prescribed such a strange prescription, where are we going to get that kind of medicine. ”

"Oh, if there were no medicinal herbs, even I wouldn't be able to save his life. The old man sighed regretfully.

"Grandpa, what kind of medicinal herb is that?" asked Nian Nian at first, who couldn't bear it.

"Hehe, it's not on the side, it's actually the kind of wood Ganoderma lucidum you picked. ”

"Now that we have medicinal herbs at this moment, why can't we save people?" asked Zhu Mei softly.

The old man sighed helplessly, "Hey, although that wood lingzhi is a good thing, it is far from enough to dispense medicine, if you want to save his brother, you need that kind of superb wood lingzhi into medicine, at least the kind that grows on the branches." He said, a pair of old eyes stared at Nian Nian firmly, "I don't know, does the girl have that kind of elixir?"

Nian Nian spread his hands, "My sister and I picked a total of five flowers, and sold them all to you." ”

The old man smiled awkwardly, but the words that followed each year made his eyes light up.

"However, there may be other wood reishi mushrooms in that place, and the last time I came back, I thought it was quite strange. If it really doesn't work, my sister and I can take you there. ”

Steward Wang and the old man's eyes flashed with pride, and they looked at each other and smiled. Steward Wang said to Nian Nian: "In this case, I have to trouble the girl." ”

Nian Nian seemed to suddenly remember something, and hurriedly waved his hand and said: "That, I'm afraid it won't work today, my sister and I are tired, let's go again tomorrow." ”

The old man smiled as brightly as a flower at the moment, nodded and said: "It's easy to say, the two girls are resting today, and the patient's life will not be in danger for a while, just so we can prepare to enter the mountain again." At that moment, they discussed the specific time with the two, and Steward Wang called the carriage that had sent them before and sent someone to take them back to the pharmacy. Every year, the two of them said goodbye to the old man in the pharmacy, happily carrying three hundred taels of silver and blending into the vast flow of people.
