After leaving Mengjun Villa, I went straight to the orchard next to the wooden house.
"I knew you would come to me."
The charming voice of the fox demon came as expected. As soon as I turned my head, she was already standing behind me with her body twisted. It seemed that every movement she made could make her body bend more, making her as soft as a ribbon.
, as long as you wave your hand, she can wrap around your whole body, making it impossible for you to break away. Of course, there are many people who not only don't want to break away, but are also obsessed with such entanglement, but they don't know that it can be fatal.
"How do you know I'm here to find you?"
"No one in this world can forget my beautiful appearance, whether it is a man or a woman, so of course you will come to me." She was still fussing, but I knew that she must have known that I had met You Ruojun.
.
"You Ruojun is sick, did you know?"
"Of course I know. I hope she will die soon."
"Since she is sick, why don't you take advantage of this to do something to her? Why do you need to make any deal with me?"
Her eyes flickered, and there was indeed some worry on her beautiful face.
"Could it be that she has something else to hold you back?"
She turned around slightly, as if she was deliberately avoiding it, and I finally understood that what she was really afraid of might not be You Ruojun's demon-transforming water.
"If you really want to do this deal with me, you'd better not hide too much, otherwise, I will slowly lose interest."
"Are you more interested in this matter than the two secrets I mentioned?"
She immediately hid her absence and wanted to change the subject.
My heart did tremble a little, but I still smiled at her calmly and said, "I'm interested in everything."
She seemed to understand the meaning of my words.
"Okay, okay, if you kill her for me, I will tell you all the secrets I know. Is that okay?" She looked at me coquettishly, her eyes seemed to be really full of grievances.
I avoided her pretense and told her seriously: "Give me two months, and I will complete the deal naturally."
She smiled flatteringly and said coquettishly: "Okay, in two months, I will be waiting for you here."
Before she finished speaking, her figure gradually disappeared into the air.
Returning to Zhuoyun Xiaozhu, for some reason, the weeping willows of Mengjun Villa always appeared in my eyes, as well as the back of Meng Yunzhong closing the door. In the end, I focused all my thoughts on meeting You Ruojun.
I was inexplicably thinking about every detail of the scene, as if I was consciously savoring the anger and jealousy I made her feel, as well as the bet I made with her. In fact, I also had questions in my heart, who would be the winner in this bet?
After thinking about it, I suddenly felt that it was ridiculous. Even if she did not marry Meng Yunzhong, even if I won, so what? Can I appear in front of Meng Yunzhong openly?
When I thought of this, I added a lot of sadness, and suddenly I felt something like pain starting to spread in my body, so I deliberately diverted my thoughts. Strangely, I slowly focused on You Ruojun's weakness.
On her face, I was especially reminded of the looming wrinkles on her face.
I suddenly became interested in her illness. What happened between her and Meng Yunzhong these days? Or what happened to herself? How could a demon hunter who had practiced some spiritual power be so inexplicably sick?
sick?
In a flash, I remembered what Meng Yunzhong said beside her bed, and then the image of the man in purple emerged in front of my eyes. They all mentioned one person: Fu Yuanwai. Meng Yunzhong also said that Fu Yuanwai's medicine can cure travel.
If You Ruojun is ill, what kind of miraculous effect does this medicine have? Will You Ruojun really be cured after taking the medicine?
With this question in mind, at midnight that day, I was already outside the door of Fu Yuanwai's Mansion.
Compared with Mengjun Villa, Fu Yuanwai's Mansion is much more ordinary and compact, and its furnishings are also featureless. Apart from showing that the owner does have some wealth, it seems to have just a few more villas than other residences. The walls of Yuanwai's Mansion are crawling
It is covered with ivy, and it seems that this mansion is quite old. There are brightly lit lanterns hanging at the gate, and everything seems peaceful and quiet. This can neither tell that Mr. Fu is a very elegant and strange man, nor can he see that
If there is any herbal smell coming out of this mansion, is it possible that there are experts who are proficient in medical skills living in this mansion? Or are they guests invited from outside?
I first walked around Yuanwai's Mansion, and then set up a hidden boundary to enter the mansion. I walked through all the courtyards, but found nothing. The main courtyard where Fu Yuan lived outside had many rooms and was considered grand, but it was also
Even though the layout and furnishings of ordinary wealthy families are similar to those of other courtyards, the people sleeping in them are just the wives, concubines, and children of the Yuanwai. Then there is the handyman's room near the backyard of the Yuanwai's Mansion. In short, I didn't find anything inside or outside.
It was a decent room that could be called a pharmacy, and there was not even a trace of the smell of medicine. Moreover, except for the servants and maids who were keeping watch at night, no one else walked around the house.
This trip seems to have yielded nothing. I am puzzled. How can there be experts who are proficient in medical skills in such an ordinary landlord's courtyard? How can there be a prescription that can cure You Ruojun? Could it be that during the day they are just
Have you made an appointment with the doctor to prescribe You Ruojun here? Then why go through such a big detour?
With many unsolved doubts, I left Yuanwai Mansion. Even though I looked around Yuanwai Mansion carefully, I still didn't find anything strange. I had to return to Zhuoyun Xiaozhu angrily and look more carefully.
Recall the details.
The night went by extremely slowly. The bet with You Ruojun left me with so many things to worry about, including the fox demon's deal, the secrets of Fu Yuan's house, and Meng Yunzhong's back gradually walking away... As soon as I closed my eyes
In my eyes, many fragmented and damaged pictures kept appearing, and many people flashed past or overlapped, which made my chest feel tight, as if the evil poison had taken effect again, and I had to hold the Sword of the Dawn tightly.
In my arms, I could occasionally hear the sound of Yun Jin sleeping soundly outside. He gently turned his body, and Zhuo Yun Xiaozhu also trembled slightly. This shock only made me suddenly wake up from my newly blurred consciousness. Such a
The state continued until Yunjin gently opened my door with his nose. Zhuoyun Xiaozhu could not tell the difference between night and day. I relied on Yunjin to wake me up in such a special way every morning, but this time,
When Yun Jin's big head poked into the room and looked in the direction of the bed, I was already sitting in the hall.
It seemed to be startled, and looked at me for a moment, then put something down from its mouth. It was a piece of rag. I picked it up and touched its head, and it made a comfortable whine.
Upon closer inspection, it seemed to be the corner of a square scarf. I looked at Yunjin, smiled at it, and nodded, indicating that I understood. In fact, this is Yunjin’s way of communicating with me, and he has been doing it for me recently.
Look for traces of monsters or other evil spirits around, and then bring something back to me from them, so that I can use it as a clue to find it. Of course, it will point me to the general direction and distance so that I can find it faster. Although
I am also very confused about how it manages to keep its huge body from being discovered by others, but it seems to have become a habit. Moreover, it always sends messages to me in this special way of communication in the early morning, so it can be seen during the day.
He had time to play with me, and at night I left the small building alone to look for clues.
I grabbed half of the silk scarf he brought back, brought it up to my nose and sniffed it. I originally thought it would be a light fragrance, but unexpectedly I smelled the unique body odor of a man. I smiled at Yun Jin and said
: "The clues you are looking for are really getting weirder and weirder."
Yun Jin put his head out of the room again and made a strange humming sound, but he looked a little proud, as if he deliberately gave me a difficult problem and seemed to have a sense of accomplishment. But I could only let it go a little bit.
Not happy.
"Yun Jin, I have to go to town today and I can't accompany you anymore. Just rest in the small building." I don't know why, I felt a little guilty when I said this, because I saw Yun Jin was stunned for a moment, and then looked at her.
For a moment, it showed a sad expression, it snorted twice, turned around and walked away silently.
"How about I find the monster as soon as possible tonight and come back to stay with you?"
I promised it from behind, but it was still a little disappointed. It just responded to me lightly and slowly walked around to the back of the small building.
I sighed, and suddenly I felt that I no longer regarded it as a spiritual beast. It seemed to have its own feelings and thoughts. It relied more and more on me and was willing to accompany me all the time, and I felt more and more
It is very close to me, and I have begun to treat it with the same attitude towards people. I will try my best to take care of its feelings and feel its mood from its every move. But today, I had to go to the town. Naturally, it was because I was with you.
Ruojun's bet.
The town is extremely lively today. It seems to be a market day. Even the originally quiet Mengjun Villa gate is bustling with several stalls on both sides. Occasionally, pedestrians will come over to take a look. The servant named Yingfu is not too busy.
Still sweeping the dust at the door, and with the not noisy people's voices, the door of Mengjun Villa presented an extremely peaceful scene. Even the door of the Villa was open, and it seemed that it was also deliberately absorbing the harmonious popularity.
.
I was still wearing the long skirt of a folk woman, and slowly walked around the pond and weeping willows at the entrance of Mengjun Villa, pretending to be playing with the girl's rouge and gouache at the stall. Then, when I looked up again, the gate of Mengjun Villa had already
In front of me, the fresh and clean breath flowing out from the village made me feel very comfortable, because this breath was also mixed with his scent.
The servant named Yingfu was still waving his broom silently beside me. He didn't seem to notice that I was slowly walking towards him until I stood still in front of him. When he raised his head, he was a little surprised at first and stopped holding his hand.
Then he looked confused. In addition, I deliberately showed some timidity and hesitation, which made him feel even more confused.
"Brother, is there a person named Meng in this house?"
"Uh...yes." He was stunned before he realized, "That's my master's sworn brother. Are you looking for him?"
"Um……"
"Then just wait, I'll go in and help you deliver the message."
I quickly stopped him, I didn't come here to meet Meng Yunzhong like this.
"No need, little brother! I just want to ask you to bring something to him." As I said that, I took out an envelope from my sleeve, which contained a sweat towel, which I found when I was cleaning the cabin a few days ago.
Yes, its owner is naturally the person I want to see in the house.
I handed the envelope to Yingfu, saluted him, thanked him, and turned around to leave. After walking a few steps, I couldn't help but look back at the gate of Mengjun Villa. Even if it was intentional,
But there is still a faint expectation and concern from my heart. It is an ordinary mahogany door, and it is still open and open. The person in my heart is somewhere inside, but I can't go in at the moment, and I feel a little disappointed.
The feeling. I saw Yingfu holding the envelope in his hand, still standing there looking at me in confusion. I nodded slightly to him again, turned around and left eagerly.
Walking in the crowded market, I couldn't seem to hear clearly what people were saying or doing transactions. Unknowingly, I walked to the other end of the market. When I looked up, I saw that it was Fu Yuanwaifu. I just came from
When I came back from my daze, I saw that the door of the Yuanwai Mansion was ajar, and there seemed to be the sound of people sighing. I wanted to avoid it, but then I thought about it, I am just an ordinary folk woman from top to bottom now.
It was not surprising to pass by this place just as I was going to the market. So I stood on one side of the gate openly, waiting for the gate to open with some purpose to see what the people living in this foreign mansion looked like.
.
After a while, the faded door was opened by an old servant wearing dark brown cotton clothes, and then he respectfully stepped aside. Behind him was a young man wearing a brocade robe, who was well dressed.
, with a high-quality Hetian jade pendant tied around his waist, and holding a folded origami fan, he didn't look unusual. It was obvious at a glance that this person had some status in the mansion.
"Master, please walk slowly."
The old servant stepped aside and bowed down but politely sent the young man out of the door. Sure enough, this man should be the eldest young master of Fuyuan Waifu. No wonder he looked like a rich man, but he didn't look very arrogant and extravagant.
It's a bit elegant at most and not annoying.
He smiled at the old servant and stepped out of the threshold gracefully. I stood aside and watched his every move with my peripheral vision, but I still couldn't tell that he was any different from ordinary people. Until he walked around the door.
Next to me, I suddenly froze on the spot. He was filled with turbid evil energy! To be precise, it was demonic energy. I immediately had many guesses, but in any case, I concluded that he did not look like a demon.
.In this way, this foreigner is indeed not as simple as I saw.
When the young master gradually moved away, I turned my head inconspicuously and carefully considered his back. Is there a demon around him? But looking at his appearance, he didn't look mysterious or scared. Maybe this demon,
It's just that he is hidden in the mansion, and no one knows his identity yet.
Originally, I could follow him to find out the truth and find the prescription that can cure You Ruojun, but now I can't because I have another more important thing.
