To this day, they haven't seen any symptoms from her body, and they have never vomited out some poisonous medicine after taking it. Shanhai and the others are afraid of Xie Hua's family, and they are afraid that Aling will lose his temper and suddenly run out of the door.
In fact, she had been in contact with many people before she learned that she was infected with the poison. Fortunately, her family's onmyoji and various doctors said that the poison was different from the epidemic, and it was not just touching their hands or saying a word.
, it can be contagious with just one look.
But the methods of casting poisons are really weird and make no sense, and no one knows how sinister the poisons of the Shadow Pavilion are. It should be said that it is better to be careful, so she was locked up, and she herself did not say that she had any complaints.
.
And another thing... Xie Huayao's death was definitely something they didn't expect. What's even more frustrating is that one of the two culprits who caused all this is forever sealed in an unbreakable barrier.
One day, one person has already escaped and they, or the forces behind him, have nothing to do with him.
It can’t be said that it is a famous family, but the Xie Huayao family is also famous in the world. Such a situation is really annoying. Although Xie Huayao is not the eldest son of the family leader - the family leader is not their father, they only found out after visiting
, Xie Huayao and Xie Hualing are the nieces of the family head. Their biological father is still running around outside, looking for a cure, and their mother is at home.
After saying this, Shanhai and Mu Wan both lowered their heads deeply, not daring to look at the reaction on the other side. After a period of suffocating silence, the woman's cry fell into the ears. Xie Hualing's mother trembled uncontrollably.
, crying, and the sobbing sounds of other people came one after another. The two of them felt their eyes sore, and they did not dare to speak, for fear that their voices would shake when they opened their mouths. In the end, her mother burst into tears and was helped out by her subordinates before leaving.
Before, the head of the family asked not to tell the elderly at home for the time being.
Shan Hai's description was already very "rudimentary" and he did not dare to repeat the actual situation exactly as it was. His descriptions were all facts, but his extreme summary could not hide the anger in his emotions. This was what they had agreed to
, as far as he was concerned, he could still take into account the emotions of his family members. If it were Mu Wan, he would probably be unable to control himself and curse.
In the sad atmosphere, the topic returned to Xie Hualing.
"This Gu is not completely helpless. If we go to Yu Yumingxu Gao Yuejun, there may be a glimmer of hope."
Lin Shanhai made this suggestion carefully, fearing that the faces of the Xie Hua family would change. Surprisingly, the expressions of the head of the family and several other elders were very ordinary, and no one loudly accused him of being fanciful.
Mu Wan couldn't help but ask: "She Ji, Shou Gongduo and Zhu Tong... are all her subordinates. How could she help the victim detoxify?"
"You also know that Lord Gaoyue has an unpredictable temperament. And according to the principles of the Shadow Pavilion, if we can provide corresponding conditions, she should give us a solution."
"To be honest..." the wife of the head of the house said, "This time Aling's father went to see the Mingying Pavilion. Our eldest son was practicing, so we sent a letter home to let him know if he heard Liu Hanxue's explanation
·The news about Ruyue-kun, I also need to think of some solutions. She is the pharmacist in the Six Paths of Impermanence, so she must... also have some solutions."
Shan Hai and Mu Wan looked at each other secretly. Dai Luan went to find Xie Hualing and was not here. But there was no direct way to contact her and Lord Ru Yue, and they did not tell the family leader this useless information.
The members of the Xie Hua family are all gentlemen, and they are reasonable in everything they say and do. Even before this kind of problem, they can calm down and analyze the interests, allowing the family to take the risk of visiting the enemy's territory.
They don't deserve to be treated like this.
"Waiting for news." Another elder said.
The good news for the time being is that their prescription can also work on Tengu. When she went to the garden to see it, it had regained its energy and was no different from before. However, the doctor still said, "To untie the bell, you must tie the bell."
.Whether there are any sequelae, it's hard to say. The person who tied the bell? Mu Wan was never willing to have anything to do with the Death Shadow Pavilion again, but when he thought about Xie Hualing, he was a little shaken.
Forget it, she would rather put her hope in Lord Ruyue.
...It shouldn't be like this. Placing hope on others is a sign of one's own incompetence. She has to admit that none of them are strong enough to solve these things alone.
The doctor also said that if you walk very far along the southwest side, you will reach a place called Xuanzhuang Town. I heard that there is a Lord of Hundred Bones there who is quite prestigious in the demon world, and he may be able to cure the root cause of the tengu.
Shanhai looked back at them and said nothing. When Mu Wan heard this title, he opened his mouth slightly and responded in a daze.
This name already sounds a little strange. But it still grows in everyone's mind and is buried in their hearts. Once the thread of memory is touched, it will cause pain to the internal organs.
The head of the family wanted to persuade them to have a simple meal and stay for a day, but they declined, and there was no further persuasion. They all knew in their hearts that getting together under such circumstances would only add a little more depression, and would not be effective in solving practical problems.
The question is of no help.
When she went to tell Dai Luan to leave, her expression was full of sadness. Needless to say, Xie Hualing definitely didn't open the door for her. They went to the city for a meal and hadn't decided where to go yet. They told Dai Luan that maybe, maybe
, they were going to Qinglize. Dai Luan knew what this meant, so he didn’t ask anything. He just asked about the Tengu. After the meal, they all sat at the table. Dai Luan said:
"I talked to her a lot, but she only advised me to leave. I thought to myself that she was probably concerned about grabbing the map before. So I chatted with her about other things, and she slowly started talking to me too. It's just that
...When she asked about Xie Huayao, I thought for a long time and dared to say that I didn't know. I guess you must have told her family, and I don't know if they will...well, when. She
She will be very sad. She will also hate me for not telling her at that time. Before I left, I wrapped up all the snacks Xi Yu gave me and left them at the door, hoping she would remember to take them."
"...She won't hate you. She's a smart girl, and she knows you shouldn't be blamed."
"I know. But what can she do? She also asked me if my brother who used to use a fan came back with us. How did I know where Wu Qi was? I had to say, he is not here, we
Bring him next time."
"Shi Wuqi, he...well, maybe he can cure the Tengu's disease."
Dai Luan continued: "To A Yao, she and I are sisters, and to A Ling, A Yao and I are sisters. I'm so sad, but I don't know what I can do. If I can find my second master...
…”
There was a brief silence. There were only two ways in front of us. Either go to Qinglize and find Mr. Gaoyue in the Shadow Pavilion. This way is almost equivalent to humiliating yourself. Or, find Aluan's Er.
Master Ruyuejun. However, like all the six realms of impermanence, her whereabouts are unpredictable, and no one knows where she is.
"Wait." Mu Wan broke the silence, "I remember that box..."
"Box? Ah, you mean..."
——That willow box. Compared to hairbands, finger rings, and feathers, it is too big, and people will not think of it as a "personal object" for a while. And in everyone's subconscious, it already belongs to Aluan.
.
Shan Hai fell into thinking and said slowly: "I'm not sure... this box should be regarded as Aluan's. I don't know if using it for divination can get real results. Even if it can, her position is not fixed.
Even our mortal bodies cannot pass through the six spiritual veins."
"Then it can be found?" Dai Luan became excited.
"Compared to Qing Lize, I would rather run after Lord Ruyue." Mu Wan also agreed.
A few people weighed it up, thought over and over again, and decided to give it a try first. At dusk, Lin Shanhai set up the formation and used the dilapidated small medicine box for divination. In the end, they did get a direction - using the paint scraped off it
The needle, which was soaked in the water and floating at the top and had been kept in the box, pointed directly at the position where Aluan stood.
"Tch..." She couldn't help but make a disappointed sound, turned around and walked away.
"Wait a minute -" Before he could let her down, Shan Hai suddenly said, "Aluan, please go further."
A Luan didn't know what his intention was, but he stayed further away and ran to the corner of the room. Mu Wan and Shan Hai continued to stare at the small bowl placed in the middle of the array, their cheeks flushed by the candles. Over there
Aluan asked curiously, Shanhaicai said:
"The needle isn't following you... I think it's this direction. We're going northwest."
"What about the distance?"
"I can't say for sure..."
As soon as he finished speaking, a candle on the corner of the table was extinguished. Shan Hai continued: "She is still walking in that direction."
"Let's go?" Dai Luan asked, "Then where she is going, either there is no spiritual vein, or...she is almost at her destination."
"We can't wait any longer. After she settles her own affairs, she will change places again. Get some rest early and set off tomorrow."
They are always on the road and walk for a long time.
In a few days, it was the Lantern Festival. There was no atmosphere in this festival. They passed by a small town. The town was lively and lively, just like every festival in every place they had been to. After experiencing that lifeless
After the New Year, Aluan suddenly lost interest in the festival. She could never get back the feeling she had in the past. The anticipation and joy had become a little numb. If you think about it carefully, this is probably an adult's perspective.
Everything is so colorful, gorgeous, and boring.
Shanhai bought her a lantern, and Mu Wan chose the one that looked like a puppy. There were wires inside, and the dog's little head swayed when she lifted it up, and the tassels underneath were also very cute. Dai Luan took it and smiled, but she couldn't.
You can't hide it from them sincerely.
Growing up is a good thing... as it should be.
We went to eat Yuanxiao in the evening. Shanhai didn't choose the fillings. Mu Wan wanted the black sesame one, but Dai Luan didn't like it. She liked hawthorn, but they were sold out. So Shanhai asked him to change it to the bean paste one, which she also liked. The result was great.
When she took it and bit it open, her face wrinkled into a bun. It turned out that the store had mixed up the jujube paste and bean paste.
"Do you hate eating jujube paste?" Mu Wan asked.
Shanhai pushed the peanut stuffed pastry to her, and then pulled her bowl over. Shanhai also said that he actually didn’t remember that she hated it, but he remembered that she also liked Zaoni snacks.
"No, it's just that my stomach was ready to eat hawthorn. I finally convinced it to switch to bean paste. But I was not mentally prepared at all... I felt that nothing I expected would happen.
They always come back the other way."
Mu Wan opened her mouth to say that she was childish, but swallowed it back. Firstly, her master didn't say anything, and secondly...she could think clearly about this feeling. When she was a child, adults always felt that children had too many things and were too pretentious. In the final analysis
After all, I am not disappointed again and again. There is nothing happy, no matter how small the sadness is, it is still sad.
"Forget it, luckily it's not stuffed with peppercorns."
"That's a way of eating that violates the spirit of humanity..."
"Ah, I remembered, it was the five-nut mooncake from last year."
"Oh... Wu Qi was still there at that time."
"Here I am."
It seems that the atmosphere that had just calmed down has dropped to freezing point again.
