In his more than twenty years of life, his master was one of the two closest people to him. His life was saved by his master. He never concealed anything from his master, and his master did not hold anything back because of his identity. Not only did he
He devoted all his efforts to cultivating him, and also handed over the Medical Valley to him. And his life completely changed the moment he met the master, and he became detached in front of that identity.
Three days later, in the early morning, there was a sudden sound of cannon fire in the valley. Everyone looked outside the house and saw seven red fireballs hanging in the sky. This was a signal from the Flame Clan. It seemed that someone was about to enter the valley. Hong Delong Qiu narrowed his eyes.
, they finally took action again.
Aji looked at the fireball in the air, then stared at Hongde Longqiu, "Why don't you let go?"
Everyone looked at him with some confusion, while Hongde Longqiu smiled slightly, "You finally couldn't help it and want to admit it?"
Meng Xinzhu looked at Ah Ji, and her feeling was correct. He was really the masked man.
Aji also smiled and said, "It doesn't matter whether you admit it or not, because I have never had any ill intentions towards her, but you, the one who preached to protect her, always hurt her. You are the source of all her misfortunes.
"
"Aji, do you know what you are talking about?" Lin Kefeng shouted sharply.
"Uncle Master, he is your master, not mine. To me, he is just a seeker of medical treatment. I will not respect him as much as you do." Ah Ji ignored everyone's expressions and still stared at Hong.
De Longqiu, "Besides, what I said is right. When she was in danger and narrowly escaped death, I fought for her, but where are you?" Hong Delongqiu raised his eyebrows, "She left you after that, but
She spent more than a year peacefully. But as soon as she came back to you, the hurt began to continue. Where were you when she was hit by the golden needle? The reason why she was poisoned and the reason why there were those outside were all
It's because of you. As long as you are by her side, she is bound to be the victim of harm. If you really want to do her best, you should let go!"
Hong Delong Qiu was startled. Of course he understood that because she was by his side, she would become the target of harm or use by those who conspired to harm her. He looked at her, was it really good for her to let go? But now he is better than before.
Even more reluctant to let go.
"Mr. Aji," Meng Xinzhu shook her head and said, "I thank you for rescuing me twice, but..." Before she could finish her words, her feet suddenly became empty and she fell from the floor.
Hongde Longqiu and Long Hao both stretched out their hands to catch her, but they only caught the hem of her dress. When the floor was closed, the dress was cut off. Hongde Longqiu looked up at Aji, and the room
There was no trace of him inside. Xiao Zhao was already standing where Ah Ji was standing just now, touching the floor. It seemed that he had turned on the mechanism and had fallen down with Concubine Zhu.
Xiao Zhao hit the floor with his palm, and there was only a muffled sound. His palm, which usually breaks stones and cracks bricks, almost broke on the spot. He touched and knocked carefully, and it turned out that the floor was actually made of cast iron.
Judging from the banging sound, its thickness was at least one foot. Lin Kefeng had already started searching in the room. He had not come back for a long time and had changed his mind. Unexpectedly, the mechanism of the secret passage of the Medical Valley had been moved.
Came to the room.
Meng Xinzhu fell to the ground. She was covered with thick, fluffy cotton pads, which prevented her from being hurt at all. As soon as she stood up, Aji suddenly reached out and grabbed her arm, covering her mouth, "Don't
Afraid, I won’t hurt you, I will take you away.”
She struggled for a while, but her acupoints were tapped and sealed, and she was carried by Aji into a long and narrow secret passage. Now that her kung fu had not recovered, her acupoints were tapped again, so she could only let him hold her. He said he would take her with him.
What does "leave" mean? Nothing can be seen from his mask.
After a short period of darkness, the road suddenly opened up. They had already reached a cave. It was estimated that no one had entered or exited the cave for too long, and it had a stale smell. After not walking for long, Meng Xinzhu felt that her body was getting more and more tired, and she was unable to do anything.
She rested her head on Ah Ji's shoulder, knowing that this was a sign of being drugged. But why didn't Ah Ji react?
Of course he didn't respond. He knew that sooner or later his uncle would find the mechanism of the secret passage, and the emperor and the others would chase after him, so he took the antidote, opened the bottle of poison he was carrying, and released the poison as he walked.
When Meng Xinzhu opened her eyes again, she could move freely. She sat up and looked at the room she was in. The entire structure of the room, including all the utensils, was made of bamboo. Walking to the dressing table, she looked
Looking at herself in the mirror, someone had removed her disguise, and she returned to her original appearance. She frowned and walked out of the bedroom.
The masked man was standing quietly at the door of the bamboo house, looking at her with the corners of his mouth raised. "Are you hungry? There is some noodles in the kitchen to cook."
Meng Xinzhu raised her eyebrows. The masked man was still standing by the door with no intention of moving. It seemed that he wanted her to do it herself, but fortunately, after all, she had been hanging out outside the palace for more than a year, so she had no knowledge of the cooking procedures in ancient society.
Already understood. After fussing around for a while, two bowls of noodle soup were finally made. The masked man looked at the food on the table, smiled, and sat down with her.
"Don't worry, is it poisonous?" Meng Xinzhu raised an eyebrow.
The masked man smiled again, "I remember someone said that it is better to be relieved than to be worried, and it is better to be poor and happy than to be nervous." Meng Xinzhu certainly remembered what she said, "Besides, you don't have the ability to do it without me knowing it.
The power of poison."
Meng Xinzhu narrowed her eyes, "Never underestimate others. Sometimes things happen when you least expect them."
The smile at the corner of the masked man's mouth deepened, "I can see from your eyes that you thank me for saving you. You are not someone who will retaliate for kindness, and you want to find out what my purpose is, so you won't do it for the time being.
Choose to poison me, after all, the living will tell you the reason, but the dead cannot speak."
Meng Xinzhu smiled, the two of them lowered their heads to mix the noodles, took a bite at the same time, and both looked up at each other.
Meng Xinzhu finally swallowed the noodles, "I'm sorry, my cooking skills are only at this level, you can make do with it."
"Hahaha!" The masked man shook his head and continued to eat the noodle soup. In his opinion, this was already the most delicious food in the world.
Meng Xinzhu walked out of the hut and found that she was in a dense bamboo forest, which was very much like the bamboo sea in Sichuan. She walked into the bamboo forest, gently caressed the bamboo branches, and smelled the fragrance of the bamboo leaves.
The masked man stood at the edge of the forest and looked at her with a smile, "How about it, it should feel good to laugh at the mortal world here."
