Chapter 17
At some point, Yue Pujie's porcelain vases lined up on the window sill were moved to the table in front of the window.There are five porcelain vases in total, tall, short, round, and flat, with different colors, namely black blue, dark blue, water red, moon white, and lead gray.
Ruan Xun glanced indifferently, closed his eyes, and began to adjust his breath.
Man has three souls: heaven, earth, and man.Only when the three souls are in harmony can one be clear-headed and behave as usual; if the three souls are incomplete, the five senses will be disordered, the limbs will be disharmonious, and one will gradually lose consciousness and look like a puppet.One of the three golden needles on the back of Ruan Xun's head fell off, and the sense of instability in his soul became more and more obvious, and the pain came faintly, which was extremely bad.
The Ruan family will not let it go, Qing Mingluo will send the next batch of assassins, Jing Yunsheng may find them at any time, what's more, there may be other enemies looking here.The current him can't stand the war of attrition at all.
Not much time left.
Thinking in this way, after the energy in his body circulated for a short week, Ruan Xun raised his eyelids and turned his gaze back to the table in front of the window.The five porcelain vases stood there quietly, behind them was the starlight obscured by the window paper.Each porcelain bottle is coated with a layer of lustrous and amiable light.
Ruan Li lowered his hands, got up from the chair and walked over.
Huajian was drinking alone, and the moon was puzzled. People in the rivers and lakes called him "Poison Sage". This title is enough to prove his achievements in the way of poison, so the medicine he sent out will not be too bad, and this person still has some thoughts about Ruan Xun. Let alone say one thing and do another, perfunctory.
So Ruan Xun stretched out his hand towards the Xuanqing porcelain bottle on the far left.
It's not heavy in your hand, shake it gently, and you can feel that there are seven or eight pills inside.
Ruan Xun pinched the cork with the other hand, and pulled out the cork very carefully and slowly——before he said it, a figure appeared at the mouth of the bottle!
This figure is impressively puzzling to Yue, but only the upper body is just a photo.But Jianyue was still holding the jade flute in his hand, and after turning out a beautiful flower between his fingers, he smiled at Ruan Xun, "I knew you would open it."
Ruan Shui said with a straight face: "..."
Yue Pujie in the photo couldn't see Ruan Sie's expression at this time. After saying that, he put his flute against his chin, and continued: "Next, Mr. Huajian Duzhuo will introduce Ruan Sie and Ruan Xiaoyou. The efficacy, usage and contraindications of medicine."
"This medicine is called..."
Ruan Xun didn't want to hear Yue Pujie say this himself, so he quickly and neatly corked the porcelain bottle, and then stretched out his hand for the next bottle.
Give it another chance.
As a result, this time, there were still some pictures popping up, but the person inside held up the jade flute and made a bow to Ruan Xun, "I know, I must have offended you just now, Yue Pujie apologizes to Mr. Ruan here. But this bottle of medicine—”
But he didn't finish speaking, he seemed to know that Ruan Xun would not let this image stay in front of his eyes for too long, halfway through speaking, he consciously shut up, and consciously went back.Immediately afterwards, a note popped out of the blue porcelain vase.
There is no need for Ruan Shang to raise his hand, it floats in front of Ruan Shang and unfolds from top to bottom: the efficacy and usage methods of these bottles of medicine are written on it in detail.
Ruan Xun ignored the flamboyant handwriting, took down the note, read it, tore it up and destroyed it, then waved his sleeves, and put all the porcelain bottles into the Hongmeng Ring.
He returned to the chair and continued to meditate with his eyes closed, turning his energy to stabilize his soul and heal the pain.
Time passed extremely quickly, as if after a trance, the eastern sky turned pale.
On the next street, the vendors rushing to the morning market have already got up, carts and loads, and hurried to the fixed place. The flower seller also pushed the door out, carrying baskets, and walked up the mountain.The sound of ruts, footsteps, and conversation can be heard, and Longjin Island, which has been sleeping all night, is gradually becoming lively.
Ruan Lai revealed his consciousness: Yue Pujie, who lives in the opposite room, is no longer at the inn; Ruan Qiuhe, who "accidentally" fell asleep in the kitchen downstairs, jumped up from the stove and slapped himself on the forehead. Hastily checked the surroundings.
Seeing that Ruan Qiuhe finished his investigation and was about to turn around and go upstairs, Ruan Li stood up, straightened his sleeves, and planned to hurry up and leave.
But - Mu Xiyun next door walked to the door before him.
Ruan Xun paused, but opened the door after a while.
"Good morning, Mr. Ruan." Mu Xiyun greeted softly, with a gentle smile on his lips.
"Morning." Ruan Xun nodded and stepped out of the room.
When the door closed the gap, Mu Xiyun raised his eyes indistinctly, and glanced inside, seeing that the window sill was empty, his eyelashes trembled slightly.
"What's Mr. Ruan planning next?" Mu Xiyun turned around with a restrained expression, and went down the stairs side by side with Ruan Xun.
"Naturally, we will continue to look for the solitary herb," Ruan Xun said.
Mu Xiyun pursed her lips slightly, and said after some hesitation: "Yesterday, that Hua Jian talked about drinking alone..."
He thought about it all night.
Huajian Duzhuo is a well-known poison doctor in the world. Although he has the word "poison", he is still a doctor.Hearing what he said last night, it seems that he is very sure about Ruan Xun's loss of soul.
Mu Xiyun thought in his heart that he shouldn't let Ruan Xun give up this rare opportunity because of his own selfishness, even if Ruan Xun really didn't understand Yue and treated him differently.
But before he could finish speaking, he was interrupted by Ruan Xun.
The man's voice was cold: "Don't mention him."
"Okay." Mu Xiyun lowered his eyes.
At this time, Ruan Qiuhe hurried upstairs and saw Ruan Shui coming towards him, so he stopped quickly, grabbed the corner of his clothes, and smiled: "Uncle Jiutang, I'm really sorry, I accidentally fell asleep last night, I'm so sorry. I promise I will never do this again, but it is not advisable to drink tea immediately after waking up in the morning, how about I make tea for you in the afternoon?"
Ruan Xun naturally said "no need".
Ruan Qiuhe didn't care about his refusal, and said with a smile that he would make tea another day, and said: "I heard that the fish in sour soup on Longjin Island is a must, so I'll bring a bowl for uncle Jiutang's breakfast." good?"
"Cultivators don't have to eat human things." Ruan Xun refused again.
"Okay." Ruan Qiuhe lowered her eyes, feeling a little disappointed, but this look didn't last long on her face, and it disappeared in a flash.She asked Uncle Jiu Tang what he was going to do next, and this time, Mu Xiyun answered for Ruan Xun.
Considering Ruan Qiuhe's identity, Mu Xiyun didn't say the purpose of finding Dumingcao.
Ruan Qiuhe didn't ask either, she more or less guessed something from the words of Huajian drinking alone last night, she only asked about the appearance and characteristics of the sapling grass carefully, and wanted to help find it.
This time, Ruan Xun did not refuse the two to follow.
Although the search is just a pretense, life is the most important thing in everything, with them by their side, the assassins of the Ruan family would not dare to blatantly provoke them again.
On this trip to Boshan, the place he must pass is the long street where he fought against Jing Yunsheng, Qingmingtang Assassin, and Yue Pujie last night.During the battle, everything on the street was destroyed by Ruan Xun.
Yesterday was too late, today is still early, and there is still no time to make amends to the local government office and the residents on the street, so Ruan Xun plans to go later.
In his prediction, at this moment, that street should be deserted, it would be waking up under the twilight of the morning light, the ground would be full of mess, desolate everywhere.
When clinker passed by the flying magic weapon, he found that the street was overcrowded, men, women and children gathered here, and lined up one after another, like a long queue.
"What are you doing?" Ruan Qiuhe was quite puzzled.
Ruan Xun raised his eyes and listened carefully, and found that these people were lining up here, waiting for the money to be distributed.
Why send money?
because--
"My friend passed by here last night, got into a fight with someone, and accidentally knocked down the street. I came here today to apologize to all the folks and fellow villagers on his behalf, and to make compensation. Those who come have a share, for home purchase Anjia, let’s express our feelings, and hope everyone can forgive me.”
On the other side of the long street, there stood a man in purple clothes, holding a jade flute, cupping his hands and chuckling at the people on the street, his voice was loud and polite.
Behind him, dozens of teenagers and girls holding trays lined up in two rows.The morning breeze blew away, and the red silk covering the tray was blown away, revealing ingots of silver one after another, which were so white that it almost blinded one's eyes.
The corners of Ruan Xun's eyes twitched extremely slightly.
"Which round will get him?" Ruan Qiuhe said angrily.
Ruan Xun looked away and said calmly, "Go to Boshan first."
Continue to Boshan.
This mountain has been searched by Ruan's family, but Boshan is too big, they can't search all day and night, and Ah Qi hasn't written a letter, presumably all the searched places have found nothing.So Ruan Li took Mu Xiyun and Ruan Qiuhe to the area that had not been searched.
Ruan Qiuhe took the initiative to ask Mu Xiyun to accompany Ruan Xun, and the three of them divided into two ways to search.
Practitioners have always had excellent eyesight, and Ruan Xun and the others are not like the assassins in Qingmingtang, who have to avoid people in the process of searching for medicine, so Mu Xiyun played the piano, using the sound of the piano to turn the grass leaves layer upon layer, searching twice as fast.
Gradually, the sun rose from the far east to the center of the sky, and the three of them stopped under a tree with dense branches to rest for a while.
At the same time, on the other side of Boshan——
Zhong Ling was sitting in the cave, with a basket full of lead and two sandbags weighing one hundred catties beside him. In front of him was a pill furnace that had been emitting green smoke for several hours.
He was ordered by Yue Bujie to watch Gu Dan furnace here and take a look at the sky. At this time, the elixir has already been refined.
"It's time to send it to the adults, before it's too late and suffer again." Zhong Ling muttered in a low voice, carefully opened the lid of the alchemy furnace, picked up the pills, and put them into a clean jade bottle.After putting it into the Hongmeng Ring, he turned his eyes to the next to the basket with great reluctance.
I don't want to recite, but if I don't recite, I will be beaten.
After some inner struggle, Zhong Ling sighed and walked towards the basket and sandbags, but just touched the hemp rope on the basket with his hand, and saw a shaky figure walking into the cave.
Looking up, he saw a man with a black complexion and blood oozing from his seven orifices, and there was a circle of bloody bite marks on his neck—obviously it was bitten by someone.
When he saw Zhong Ling, he fell to his knees with a plop: "Little, little fairy, I saw you refining medicine here... Can, can you please help..."
The man's voice was trembling, and he was crying while speaking, and he spoke weakly. Before he could say the last word "I", he suddenly vomited a mouthful of blood, closed his eyes, and fell to the ground.
"My dear mother!"
Zhong Ling was startled, and quickly dropped the rope, rushed to check the man's breath and pulse, after counting breaths, turned around, carried the man on his back, and rushed out.
When he was not carrying any heavy loads, he moved extremely fast and ran out of Boshan in the blink of an eye.While running, he shouted: "My lord! There is a poisonous corpse on Mount Bo! This man was bitten by a poisonous corpse!"
