"This, this is..." Jiang Yushi looked at the strange scene in front of her and couldn't help covering her lips with her bare hands, filled with surprise.
I saw a huge alchemy furnace on top of a grassy area that was blocked by boulders on three sides, with most of the furnace filled with clean water.
Under the wooden shelf supporting the alchemy furnace, there is a spiritual plate. Orange flames are lit on the plate. The water in the furnace is heated and steam rises.
Jiang Yushi took two steps closer and took a closer look. He saw several kinds of flower elixir floating on the surface of the hot water. The fragrance of flowers mixed with the fragrance of medicine came to his nostrils, and his whole body felt refreshed.
"Please." Zhong Wen stretched out his hand and pointed at the alchemy furnace.
"Are you trying to refine me into a pill?" Jiang Yushi looked at the steaming cauldron and couldn't help but complain.
"As the world's number one miracle doctor, I tell you responsibly that your body has no medicinal value." Zhong Wen said with a serious face, "Using you to make elixirs will only waste other medicinal materials."
Unless you use it for dual cultivation.
He secretly added in his heart.
"Do you usually use this furnace to make elixirs?" Jiang Yushi didn't know what she thought of, and her pretty face turned slightly red.
"Of course, why would you not use such a top-notch alchemy furnace to make elixirs?" Zhong Wen nodded, and then added, "But don't worry, my wife has also taken a bath in it. It is absolutely safe and reliable."
Thinking of Shangguan Junyi bathing in the alchemy furnace, Zhong Wen couldn't help but feel tenderness and sweetness in his heart.
Jiang Yushi was speechless for a while and rolled her eyes at him. The charming look she showed unconsciously was really charming.
"There are a few elixirs put in this water, which has the effect of relaxing the muscles, activating blood, and refreshing the mind." Zhong Wen added, "Try the temperature of the water. If it works, I will go behind the stone to watch the wind for you."
Jiang Yushi nodded slightly when he heard the words, moved lightly, and came to the side of the huge stove. He put his slender hand into the water and explored it. He found that the water was warm but not hot, just suitable for bathing. He was slightly happy in his heart. He raised his head and glanced at Zhong Wen, his expression still a little hesitant: "Do you really want to wash in here?"
"It's a good thing that you are still a general. How come you are not straightforward at all?" Zhong Wen said with a look of disdain on his face, "Do you want to take a shower?"
"You..." When Jiang Yushi heard this, his chest rose and fell sharply with anger, which was spectacular.
Since she met Zhong Wen, she felt that she had been more angry than in the previous twenty years combined.
"I'm going to take a shower, you go over there." The two stared at each other for a long time, Jiang Yushi suddenly pointed at the back of the big stone and said.
"You are probably the most arrogant prisoner in the world." Zhong Wen shook his head and slowly walked towards the outside of the boulder.
It wasn't until Zhong Wen's figure disappeared behind the boulder that Jiang Yushi undressed and slowly stepped into the alchemy furnace.
Her soft and fair skin was instantly surrounded by warm hot water, and the aroma of elixirs and flowers was refreshing. Jiang Yushi felt that the pores all over her body were relaxing, like a child lying in her mother's arms, and her nerves were completely relaxed.
This little thief is quite capable.
If he is willing to join the Jiang family, he will definitely be a big help.
No, he was so rude to me. Even if he came to seek refuge, I would cut him into pieces.
But with this skill, it would be a pity to kill him.
Jiang Yushi stretched out her slender jade hands, picked up a handful of water, and slowly sprinkled it on her snow-like jade arms, thinking wildly, with thousands of thoughts in her mind.
It was quiet all around, except for the sound of bathing water, there was no other sound, but Jiang Yushi could still sense the presence of Zhong Wen behind the boulder.
Normally, Zhong Wen is an extremely annoying person, but at this moment, his presence gave Jiang Yushi an inexplicable sense of peace of mind.
After a while, a "clang, clang, clang, clang" sound suddenly sounded from behind the boulder.
"Little thief, what are you doing?" Jiang Yushi couldn't help but asked loudly.
A head popped out from behind the stone: "I'm making tea, would you like a cup?"
"ah!!!"
Jiang Yushi didn't expect Zhong Wen to show up, so she hurriedly put her hands in front of her chest and let out a scream.
"What are you yelling about? The stove is higher than me. What can I see?" Zhong Wen complained for a few words and then retracted his head.
"Shameless little thief." Jiang Yushi was ashamed and angry, and couldn't help but cursed fiercely.
Frightened, she no longer wanted to take a bath. She washed herself casually, then got out of the alchemy furnace and came to the place where the clothes were originally placed.
"Huh?"
I saw that the clothes I had changed had disappeared. Instead, there was a piece of clean and soft white cloth and a brand new set of women's clothes. It actually included clothes, shoes and socks, and even the underwear was not missing.
.
This little thief is quite attentive.
Jiang Yushi bit her lips lightly, feeling very conflicted. She was about to refuse Zhong Wen's gift, but she couldn't find the original clothes. Now she was naked. She wanted to ask, but she was afraid that Zhong Wen would stick his head out, so she hesitated again and again.
, finally dried himself with a white cloth and put on this new set of clothes.
The Fulong female general ran around for days and fought many battles, with almost no time to rest. After being unfortunately captured, there was no time to bathe or change clothes. After all, she was a young woman of noble birth. Even though she had been in the army for many years, she did not have a clean temper.
After a slight change, some sweat and stains accumulated on my body, which made me feel a little uncomfortable.
Now that she was freshly washed and put on soft, clean clothes, she felt refreshed and her mood instantly became much brighter. Most of the psychological trauma caused by her beard had also been recovered.
Stretching slightly, Jiang Yushi moved her jade feet and slowly came to the outside of the boulder. She saw Zhong Wen sitting cross-legged on the grass with a small square table standing in front of him.
There are all tea utensils on the table including pots, cups, saucers, lids, etc. Under the teapot shelf, there is actually a spiritual pattern plate with orange-red flames coming out of it. The teapot is made of an unknown material and was burned by the flames.
, and will not expand or crack.
Next to the tea set, there is another basket. The lid of the basket has been lifted, revealing pieces of red and green delicate pastries inside.
Zhong Wen grabbed a piece of pastry with his right hand and stuffed it into his mouth for a few chews. He raised the tea cup with his left hand and took a sip. He put the pastry and tea into his stomach with a look of satisfaction on his face.
"You do know how to enjoy it." Jiang Yushi felt a little unbalanced in his heart when he saw Zhong Wen was so comfortable.
"I didn't expect the clothes to fit so well." Zhong Wen turned to look her up and down, smiled and praised, "Finally, she looks a little more feminine."
At this time, Jiang Yushi was wearing a long white one-piece dress, with a belt hanging on her slender waist. She put on a pair of small white embroidered shoes at her feet. Her slightly reddish-brown hair had not yet been dried, and was draped in a semi-wet layer.
The fragrant shoulders are full of charm, charming and moving, just like a little jade girl, not even half as powerful and domineering as a general.
"Fuck you." Jiang Yushi rolled her eyes at Zhong Wen charmingly, then came and sat down opposite him, picked up the teapot without ceremony, poured herself a cup, and asked while sipping, "You
Why are you carrying women's clothes with you?"
"Have you forgotten that I am a god? How difficult is it to change into a suit of clothes?" Zhong Wen chuckled.
"Do you think I'm a fool?" Jiang Yushi said with a look of dissatisfaction on his face.
"Aren't you just a silly girl?" Zhong Wen nodded in approval.
"Go to hell!" Jiang Yushi was so angry that she almost poured the tea in the cup on his face.
"These are my wife's clothes." Zhong Wen straightened his face and said slowly.
Thinking of Shangguan Junyi, a gentle look appeared on his face.
"Is that the woman named Thirteenth Niang?" After Jiang Yushi was captured, she received a lot of care from Thirteenth Niang, and was deeply impressed by this beautiful and heroic female hero.
"No, Sister Thirteen is my friend." Zhong Wen shook his head.
"Did you make this pastry too?" Jiang Yushi picked up a piece of pastry and stuffed it into her mouth. She felt it was crispy and soft, melting in the mouth, and a fragrance instantly spread across her lips and teeth. She couldn't help but ask.
"No." Zhong Wen shook his head again, "A friend made it and gave it to me."
"Female friend?"
"Well, you should also know the girl Ayun who drove the snow eagle and fought with you on the battlefield." Zhong Wen answered honestly.
"You have quite a few beauties." Recalling Gan Muyun's fairy-like appearance and temperament, there was a strange feeling in Jiang Yushi's voice, and he didn't know whether it was ridicule or contempt.
"I can't help it. I'm also helpless about the fact that my own charm is too great." Zhong Wen had a look of distress on his face.
Jiang Yu's poem: "..."
Regarding this shameless behavior, she didn't know how to continue the conversation.
After another while, she suddenly asked softly: "Zhong Wen, are you willing to join me, Fulong Empire?"
"Why should I join the Fulong Empire?" Zhong Wen asked inexplicably.
"With your abilities, you will never lack appreciation wherever you go." Jiang Yushi said seriously, "No matter how many benefits Da Gan has promised you, I can double them for you."
"Daqian didn't grant me any benefits." Zhong Wen shook his head and smiled, "I don't lack anything and I don't need any benefits. The reason why I came here is just because I live in Daqian and I care about everything. We are all Daqian people, so we cannot just watch the Fulong army invade their homes, that's all."
"If that's all, what impact will a change of ruler have on you?" Jiang Yushi asked puzzledly, "His Majesty, the Emperor of Fulong Empire, has great talents and great strategies, far better than that incompetent Li Jiuye. In the long run, It may not be a bad thing for the people of Daqian."
"I have a friend who is the third prince of Daqian." Zhong Wen said with a smile.
Jiang Yushi's eyes dimmed and he said nothing more.
"Eh? You gave up so quickly?" Zhong Wen said dissatisfied, "You didn't even use the honey trap? What an insincere solicitation."
"You have a beautiful idea!" Jiang Yushi was both angry and funny, and couldn't help but spit.
While the two were talking, a gray and white messenger bird suddenly jumped out from behind the boulder, made a chirping sound, circled in the air several times, and then landed gently on Zhong Wen's shoulder.
