Recalling the list of medicinal materials and what the people at the medicine pavilion said, a guess came to her mind, "Did she refine it? Impossible! How did she get such a great ability?"
It is already a strange thing to become smart from a fool, let alone become an alchemist?
"There are far more secrets about her than that. I suspect that she has recovered her spiritual power." Chu Tian said in a deep voice, with a sinister look on his face, without any hint of joy.
"Her spiritual roots are not..." After receiving his sharp eyes, Zheng Jinhua hurriedly swallowed the rest of his words, "But how is this possible?"
"Otherwise, how could she take over my pressure? I suspect that there is an expert helping her behind the scenes, restoring her consciousness, giving her poison to defend herself, and introducing her spirit into her body!" Mo Jue's figure flashed before Chu Tian's eyes.
, I already had a guess in my mind.
"Then what should we do?" Zheng Jinhua was a little flustered.
"That person can help her for a while, is it possible that he can help her for a lifetime? Let's endure it for the time being, and when the time comes, we can deal with her slowly. In addition, go and capture Li Xiuniang, she will be useful later.
time."
A sinister dark light flashed in Chu Tian's eyes.
The other side.
Chu Ran came to the backyard based on the memory of the original owner.
The courtyard was narrow, and next to a smelly toilet, the small woodshed next to it was the original owner's bedroom.
The door is shaky, and the space inside is even smaller. Except for a table and a bed, there is no room for anything else.
There were no windows, no wardrobe, and even the bed was made of three benches lined up with a wooden board.
The wooden bed was covered with a thin quilt. The quilt was dirty, but it was folded extremely neatly, with one corner slightly rolled up.
Chu Ran opened it, and what was inside turned out to be a hard steamed bun covered in mud and smelling sour.
The original owner didn't finish eating before entering the palace, so she hid it on the bed. She also folded the quilt.
Chu Ran felt sour in her heart, because of that fool who was born stupid, but lived clumsily and seriously!
Suddenly, there was a crashing sound outside the door.
She quickly suppressed the strange feeling in her heart, and her eyes were as sharp as a cold blade piercing the yard, falling on the girl who sneaked in with cat steps.
This person is none other than Shui Yin, the maid who was angered by Zheng Jinhua not long ago.
"Slave... I'm here to thank you." She swallowed with some fear.
Chu Ran didn't speak, just looked at her coldly.
That look in her eyes made mercury feel scared, but she still said bravely, "I was in the room just now. If you hadn't spoken, I would have been severely punished."
If a hundred boards fall on her, she will not die and will become a useless person for the rest of her life.
"Thank you very much. It was you who saved this slave! If there is anything that this slave can do in the future, just give your orders and I will definitely do it!" She tried hard to suppress the fear in her heart and looked up at her, wanting to let Chu Ran know.
See your own sincerity.
"I didn't save you." Chu Ran denied, "It was you who saved you."
The memory of the original owner contains her, a maid who had just entered the mansion less than half a year ago, and one of the few people in the general's mansion who had not bullied or ridiculed the original owner.
"I don't understand, but I know you are a good person!" Mercury said loudly.
Chu Ran ignored it indifferently.
He glanced back at the room and then said, "Go and tell my father that I will live in Zhaiyue Pavilion from now on."
After saying that, she turned around and left.
Zhaiyue Pavilion is located in the east courtyard of the General's Mansion. It was once the courtyard of the original owner's mother.
Later, when she passed away and was sealed up, all the servants who served her were sold. No one came in or out, and no one cleaned it.
Not long after Chu Ran arrived, servants swarmed in, cleaning, moving furniture, preparing new clothes, and all busy.
It only took one afternoon to decorate Zhaiyue Pavilion with a brand new look.
At nightfall, Chu Ran sent away his servants and sat cross-legged on the couch.
She closed her eyes, feeling the wisps of spiritual energy in the air, and her mind moved slightly. The spiritual energy seemed to be drawn, penetrated into her body, merged into the air sea, and nourished the two spheres floating in it.
Time passed quietly. When she opened her eyes and woke up from trance, the sky outside the window was already bright.
"Have you only broken through to the fifth level spiritual person?" Feeling the change in spiritual power, she couldn't help but feel a little disappointed.
In one night, she only advanced from the fourth grade to the fifth grade.
"Too slow." Chu Ran murmured, but she knew better that the most taboo thing in practice was impatience.
I suppressed my disappointment, changed into clean clothes, and walked quickly to the accounting room.
Before she entered the door, she heard someone talking inside.
"I really don't understand what the madam and the master are thinking. Even if the third young master is poisoned, that fool has the antidote in his hand. Can't he just force her to take it out? Why are you giving in to her? Let her stay in the house.
Do whatever you want? I don’t believe she can survive a set of torture!”
The owner of the voice, Chu Ran, remembered that it was Ruoshui, Zheng Jinhua's most trusted personal maid, who often humiliated and tortured the original owner in the past.
"Isn't that right? We have to move the yard as soon as we come back, so everyone has to help. We worked all afternoon yesterday, and A Ming and the others are so tired. I think she did it on purpose! She suddenly gained power and ran to us.
Show off your power, hum! You don’t care what you are! Just wait, one day the third young master will be detoxified, and let’s see how the madam deals with her!”
The owner of the other voice is also Zheng Jinhua's maid.
Chu Ran reached out and pushed open the door.
"Yes, it's you?" The two were startled and looked at each other quickly.
How much did she hear about what was said just now?
In a panic, Chu Ran walked up to the counter, knocked on the countertop, and said to the housekeeper standing inside, "I'm here to get my monthly salary."
The housekeeper was stunned. Today was the first time she came to collect monthly money.
Thinking of the master's instructions, he asked them to try their best to meet her requirements.
The housekeeper immediately took out the money and said, "The monthly money of the general's lady is twenty taels per month. Please take it."
"What I got is not this month." She said that she wanted to get back everything they owed the original owner!
"Since I was born, the General's Office has not given me any monthly payment. I might as well give it to me today."
He said a word lightly, but the housekeeper almost jumped up in shock.
"Give it together!" How much money will it cost? "This matter is too big for me to be the master. Please wait a moment. I will ask the master for instructions."
"Go." Chu Ran's eyes turned and he looked at the two maids who were about to go out with him. He flipped his wrist lightly and the silver needle instantly pierced their feet.
Looking at the silver needle that was half an inch into the ground, both of their faces turned pale with fright.
Just a little bit, if they go any further, they will be pierced by needles on their insteps!
"Did I let you go?"
The voice coming from behind was as terrifying as a demon.
Ruoshui composed himself and forced himself to calm down, "What do you want to do? I tell you, I am the lady's maid! If you dare to do anything to me, the lady will not let you go!"
"Really?" Chu Ran's body flashed and he appeared in front of her in an instant. He concentrated his spiritual power on his fingertips and quickly touched several acupuncture points on her chest.
"!!" Ruoshui's eyes widened in horror, his mouth opened and closed but not a single word came out.
She lost her voice!
Chu Ran's terrifying figure was reflected in his dilated pupils.
"I just heard you talking about torture?" Chu Ran's fingertips gently brushed her tense face.
The nails were rough, like a dull knife running across her face!
Ruoshui was so frightened that she almost burst into tears.
