The fragrance of the rose flowers entered the medicine hut hidden in the garden of the mountain. In one of the rooms, there was a pale young woman with a pretty face lying on the bed. But the young man in the drugstore next door was still trying to come up with a third hope of waking her up.
About two hours later, the scent of medicine mixed with the fragrance of flowers filled the entire medicine hut. The man poured the medicine from the sandbox into a bowl and carried it into the room where the girl stayed. He sat on a stool beside the bed and spoonfully and patiently fed the medicine into the woman's mouth.
After feeding the medicine, the man carefully wiped off the medicine stains on the girl's lips with a handkerchief. At this moment, he heard footsteps that were purposely light behind him. The last footsteps stopped beside him.
"Brother Siyuan, you're still saying that this isn't the person you love? Just now, you were staring fixedly at your sister. I'm afraid you didn't even notice that I entered, right?" The little girl said proudly, as if she had guessed the truth.
"She wasn't one to begin with. Don't spout nonsense." Yang Siyuan sat on a stool and turned around to face her. "I heard you're still ten steps away from the medicine hut. You said that your grandma was going to make fish today, did you not want me to have meat to eat?" I know I don't eat fish. "
"Who asked you not to tell me when my Brother would return?" And since you know that someone has entered, why didn't you even turn around? "
Yang Siyuan slightly frowned when he heard what she said. Behind him, he expressionlessly picked up the medicine bowl that was on the small table beside him. He got up and walked out of the room, "You're a little girl, and not a killer. What's the need for me to turn around?"
The little girl who was being looked down on wrinkled her nose in dissatisfaction. "No wonder Brother often fights with you. Why do you always talk this way?"
"I'll leave the matter of taking care of Miss to you. I'll go and see if there's anything on Grandma's side that requires my help."
"Hey, Brother Siyuan, when is my Brother going home?"
However, the reply she got was Yang Siyuan's cool and emotionless back, while the little girl made an exaggerated face behind the man.
After dinner, the girl fed the girl the second bowl of medicine. After a few days of not feeling any better, the girl suddenly coughed twice. Before she could even open her eyes, she unconsciously leaned against the bed and spat out a mouthful of black blood.
The little girl was so frightened that she opened her mouth and hurriedly put the remaining medicinal bowl on the table. As she walked out the door, she shouted, "Big Brother Siyuan! Big Brother Siyuan! Big Sister woke up! "
Originally, Yang Siyuan was in the pharmacy studying the prescription that might be able to cure the girl's illness, but after hearing the contents of the little girl's words, he was stunned for a moment before reacting. He quickly got up and went to the next room.
Seeing the girl who took the handkerchief from the girl to wipe the blood from her mouth, Yang Siyuan was almost on the verge of tears of joy. "Miss, you've finally woken up. I thought …"
When Yun Shu, who had not yet understood the situation, saw that the man who had just barged in seemed to be on the verge of tears, she immediately wanted to say something to stop him. However, she was pushed back onto the bed by the man, "Miss, rest well first.
"Please give me a cup of hot water. I would like to wash my mouth, thank you." She did not understand why this man called her "Miss". Indeed, she had never seen such a swordsman like servant in the Yun clan.
Moreover, this man appeared after she blew the bone flute given to her by the old steward of the Yin Residence. Was this man related to the old steward, or was he sent by the Yin Residence to protect her? Yun Shu guessed.
Yang Siyuan carefully waited until the temperature of the water had dropped to the level of being able to drink before helping Yun Shu up and handing her a cup. After washing up and placing the cup on a small table, the little girl who had fed her the medicine just happened to be bringing in a plate of pastries. Yang Siyuan took a small piece and was about to give it to her.
Yun Shu immediately felt that the other person's actions were a bit strange, and quickly raised her hand to stop him. "Actually, I'm not very hungry, too. Thank you for saving me."
Yang Siyuan said, "Previously, there was no one who managed to survive after consuming three days of Soul Stealing Pill. If it wasn't for someone who dealt a heavy blow to Miss, causing a large amount of poisonous blood to be spat out, I might not have been able to do anything."
"May I ask where this place is? How many days will it take for me to get to Chun Yang County?" Yun Zhuang thought to himself.
"You have just recovered from a serious illness and should not be on your way," Yang said unhappily. "Furthermore, I heard that Dazhuang suffered a great defeat, so I thought that Yan Jun's plan was an empty city. I didn't expect that he would be surrounded by the Yan Army the moment he entered Chang He County."
Yunshu's heart skipped a beat. If that was the case, what Pei Hongqing had told her earlier about him retreating to protect Chunyang was a lie … She thought that she had leaked her secret and blamed herself for being poisoned. She wanted to rush to Jiao Yang to tell him about it, but she did not expect that General Pei had already come up with a real strategy.
However, she could not understand why Pei Hongqing would tell her such nonsense as "retreat and make love".
Yang Si saw that she no longer had any thoughts of leaving immediately, so he continued, "The Three Day Soul Stealing Pill is not something that can be cured in one go, plus I used a lot of the pills I used on Miss previously, although the poison isn't that great, but for Miss's body, I still need to expel them one by one. In the next few days, I will let Miss Mu treat you with acupuncture."
Yun Shu looked at the little girl called Little Mu and the man she called "Big Brother Siyuan". "Thank you. I'll be troubling you from now on."
"Miss, rest early. I'll be at the pharmacy next door. If you need anything, just call me." Before Yang Siyuan could finish his words, Little Wood waved at Yun Zhui with a grin, turned around, and ran off.
When Yang Siyuan stood outside the door, he was about to close the door to her room. Yun Shu immediately half propped herself up and asked, "About that … Brother Siyuan, can I ask you something? "
Yang Siyuan's action of closing the door was sluggish. "My surname is Yang. Miss, please don't call me that in the future."
Yun Zhuang nodded his head, "Alright then, don't call me young miss. You can call me Yun Shu directly. I want to ask if the Yin House sent you to protect me. "Even though those two aunts weren't exactly friendly to me, the person who suddenly ran off to join them …"
Yang Si knew that she was asking about this, so he didn't want to tell her the truth. Hence, he nodded. "Yes."
This was a col called 'Wu Tuo Mountain' in Wu County. It was said that the entrance and exit were very well hidden, and every night on the fifteenth day, when the lake at the lowest point of the col, called the Seven Stars Lake, retreated, the narrow entrance and exit would only appear three to eight hours later.
So even if she had fully recovered by the time she woke up, there was no way for her to go to the outside world. This was a place that was completely isolated from the rest of the world. She could only wait until 15 …
Six days before 15, her body was fully recovered. After dinner, she followed the firefly Mu Ling to the Seven Stars Lake.
The water shimmered in the cold moonlight, and occasionally one or two of the last mayflies would ripple on the surface of the obsidian water, and the fireflies, gathered at the edge of the lake and on the not-so-steep slopes, seemed to feel that their lives were sufficient, and to be flying about joyfully, occasionally breaking into the net of the same carefree little girl.
In the end, with a face full of excitement, Mu Ling brought a bag of "spoils" to her and waved it before her. Only then did Yun Shu realize that she hadn't been as free as Mu Ling in a long time. But what she thought was a "long time" was really only a few months since her father had died.
When she stood up, Yang Siyuan was standing on the hillside, holding his sword that did not easily leave his body. "It's time to go back." He seemed to have something on his mind. When Yun Shu turned her head to look him in the eye, he actually turned his face to the side, and walked down the small mountain slope.
Mu Ling looked doubtfully at Yang Siyuan as he left, "Big brother Siyuan is getting weirder and weirder. He doesn't want to talk to anyone about anything. Sooner or later, he'll suffocate himself to death."
The next day, just as she finished changing and pulled open the door, she saw Yang Siyuan standing with his back facing her. The moment he heard the door open, he turned around and greeted, "Miss Yun …"
The other party's hesitant appearance caused Yun Shu to be filled with doubt, "Brother Yang, do you have something to say to me?" Ever since Yang Siyuan forbade her to call him "Big Brother Siyuan", she started to call him that. At the beginning, Yang Siyuan was still looking at her with a puzzled expression, but sometimes there seemed to be a flash of "I hate you for not being able to do it" in his eyes. In the end, Yun Shu called him a lot more, so he could only get used to this form of address.
Yang Siyuan frowned for a moment before saying, "Actually, I want to ask you, do you want to go out?"
"I will have to trouble you all to take care of my grandma during this period of time. I can't possibly stay here and cause you all trouble. Now that I have fully recovered, there is no reason for me to stay here any longer."
"It won't be troublesome. Actually, you can always... I mean, before Grandma and Little Mu, there were only two people living here, and now one or two more people will find it more lively. "
Yun Shu thought that he was just speaking politely and smiled gratefully: "Moreover, I also have my own matters to attend to. You should know that I have an engagement with the young master of the Yin family, right? Since you said that after consuming the Soul Stealing Pill for three days no one survived, then Yin Yun should already be dead. I can finally regain my identity and return to Chang An. "
After hearing her say goodbye to Chang'an, Yang Siyuan suddenly turned to look at her and confirmed, "Don't you want to go to Chang He?"
Yun Shu frowned slightly: "Why would I want to return to the army camp? It's not like I'm full. " Furthermore, Pei Hongqing had lied to her, so why would she go back and work for him? Furthermore, the two aunts of the Yin Residence were still worried about her safety. Just like this, she would have the courage to return to Chang'an. However, she put the marriage contract in her bag, and Bao Ji didn't know if he was still in the general's tent … After all, "Yin Yun" had already died a month ago.
She did not know what Pei Hongqing would do with her bundle. She hoped that General Pei would not throw her things away and burn them away.
After Yang Siyuan received a clear answer, he immediately let out a sigh of relief. His often gloomy face unexpectedly broke into a smile. "Wait until the fifteenth. I'll send Miss Yun back to Chang'an."
"Then I'll thank Brother Yang first. I'll have to trouble you to take care of me on the way." With a smile and a bow, Yun Zhui and Yang Siyuan immediately turned and left, their faces and ears flushed.
