Chapter 25 The Concubine(2/2)
"Me?" I asked confused.
Young Master Fu nodded seriously. Meng Yunzhong was even more confused. Although he had always been calm, he also showed a lot of surprise at this time.
"This prescription belongs to my concubine in the family. It can be regarded as an ancestral inheritance. I don't dare to tell others. I wonder if Meng Daxia and this girl would like to go to the inner hall to talk about it?" Young Master Fu had no reaction to our surprise.
It seems to be expected.
"Master Fu... what about me..." Boyi was at a loss and asked blankly.
"Excuse me, Hero Boyi, please wait here for a cup of tea with your father."
Although Boyi had a puzzled look on his face, he couldn't say anything more. He could only watch as Meng Yunzhong and I followed Young Master Fu out of the hall and went around to the small door on the side of the yard.
Sure enough, my guess was correct. Next door to this villa is the back garden of the Yuanwai Mansion. The pavilions are unique, small but not elegant. The winding paths are lined with rich flower clusters, and the surroundings are full of spring and full of vitality.
Meng Yunzhong and I followed Master Fu through the back garden, and entered another courtyard through a carefully carved arch. I have been to this courtyard several times, but never found anything special.
The young master's dormitory is also some distance away. It is simply furnished and has only one room. Is this the inner hall he mentioned? Could it be that the concubine mentioned just now lives in such a simple wooden house? The outer palace of Fuyuan is more or less the same.
Even for a wealthy family, the residence of the young master and his concubines should not be so random. Therefore, the deeper I go, the more curious I become. This young master Fu is really a bit unpredictable, or in other words, this fu Yuanwaifu, maybe
There are really many secrets hidden there.
"Here we are." Fu Huan'en stopped in front of the wooden house in the center of the yard, turned slightly and said to Meng Yunzhong and me.
"You two, wait a moment while I ask my concubine to come out and salute you two." Fu Huanen said, saluted us again, and then walked into the wooden house alone.
The door was slightly open, and I couldn't see what was going on inside the room, but I could feel the slightest bit of evil spirit coming out of the room. Sure enough, the strangeness of the Yuanwai Mansion was all here.
After a long while, he returned the favor and walked out alone. He walked straight in front of me.
"Please ask this Yinluo girl to come to the house, and I will explain it to her face to face."
Thinking carefully about the evil spirit just now, I couldn't help but be a little more defensive, but since he said so, I might as well take advantage of it and see what kind of person is living in this house. In addition, this young master Fu
He doesn't look like a villain, so I don't think he's in any danger.
I smiled at him and followed his guidance towards the wooden house. Meng Yunzhong suddenly held my hand from behind. I turned around and saw a worried look on his face.
"How about I go in with Yinluo?"
Meng Yunzhong said firmly, maybe he also noticed something strange? But he is only a mortal, how could he recognize the evil spirit in this room?
"My dear Meng, please forgive me. My concubine has always lived in seclusion and is very afraid of outsiders. I'm afraid it will be inconvenient. Moreover, this prescription is also quite secretive. She specified that Miss Yinluo should be admitted. She must have her reasons. Please rest assured, Sir Meng."
Fu Huan'en respectfully explained to Meng Yunzhong, but his body was already slightly blocking between me and him. The more he behaved like this, the more curious I became. I smiled at Meng Yunzhong to reassure him, and walked into the wooden house alone.
.
There is a faint fragrance of green grass in the house, and the furnishings are elegant. Although the house is not big, it is divided into three small and unique parts. To the right of the entrance is the study room, with a book table in the center; in the middle is a small hall for entertaining guests.
A round table and four wooden chairs were placed; in the middle of the wooden carvings on the right was an archway with a gauze curtain drawn, which must have been the bedroom. Through the gauze curtain, a graceful figure vaguely appeared. Naturally, it also exuded a demonic aura.
source.
"Girl, I am so polite."
The figure seemed to have moved erratically outside the gauze curtain. She bowed to me next to the carvings, and then walked to the side of the round table. She was wearing a lavender gauze dress, and her soft hair gently clung to her body.
Her body was blown up by the breeze from time to time. There was only a simple bun on the top of her head and a hairpin, which was not luxurious. In terms of appearance, she was not very beautiful, but she gave people a very soft impression.
A frail woman, no one would doubt her identity as a monster. However, the smell on her body seemed familiar.
"Girl, please sit down, there is no need to be formal."
I nodded slightly towards her and sat down on a wooden chair. When she saw me sitting down, she slowly sat down on the chair opposite me.
"There is no need to hide anything between the girl and me. I am indeed of a foreign race. The girl visited the foreigner's house several times at night, presumably to find me, right?"
She spoke frankly, and I didn't know why, so I just smiled slightly in response.
"Although I don't know why the girl is looking for me several times, but from this point of view, I am afraid it is also for this prescription. To be honest, girl, the medicine required for this prescription is not an extraordinary thing..."
"You might as well just say it."
"This medicine needs to be led by a bead called Xu Mo. However, the spiritual power in this bead must be activated by someone, and it is fleeting. There is only one chance a year. I only blame my body.
The magic power is very weak, and it cannot activate the spiritual power... In the past few times, my sister cast the spell on my behalf. It happened that my sister recently traveled far away, which delayed Miss Ruojun's treatment. The girl has visited many times in recent days, and I
I also know that the girl has great spiritual power, so I want to ask the girl for help... At this point, the girl does not have to hide her identity. We are both demons. I hope the girl will not embarrass me..."
She stood up and saluted me again, which made me feel as if she had been in the mortal world for a long time. These fickle rules made her more and more like a concubine of a wealthy family.
I smiled coldly. It really made me a little embarrassed that You Ruojun's illness required me to rescue him. However, even though she was plausible and the cause and effect were impeccable, I had a vague feeling that there seemed to be something else in it that I didn't know.
, if you want to ask what it is specifically, I can’t tell clearly.
"Now that you've said it, can you tell me what kind of disease Sister You is suffering from? How can it be cured by such a weird prescription?"
"It's really hard for me to be a concubine, girl. I promised Miss Ruojun that I would not reveal her condition to others."
Her response was beyond my expectation, but just when I was about to give up, she said vaguely:
"But...I can tell you that Miss Ruojun has been planted with a kind of evil spell in her body, and she will be corroded by evil spirits every other year."
When she said this, my interest was aroused again. I heard that monster hunters often have the same magic weapon full of pure energy to protect their bodies. As a monster hunter, how could You Ruojun be easily corrupted by evil magic?
"Don't you know Sister You's identity?"
"I know. However, Miss Ruojun has been treating her for many years without embarrassing me. Furthermore, I have always lived in seclusion, and have not interacted too much with other mortals, and have never harmed others."
"Okay, I'll just help her. I wonder where the bead is now?"
"Thank you very much for your help, girl. The spirit bead will be in the woods south of Suining Town for a moment. There is an abandoned temple there, and the bead is in it."
I nodded: "Then I will go to the forest to cast spells tonight."
As I turned around, another question arose in my mind and I asked:
"If that's the case, why do you need Yun Zhong's help?"
Yun Niang smiled and said: "Don't worry, girl, I will never let Meng Daxia go to that forest. I just asked Meng Daxia to help me cook the medicine. This medicine not only requires this unusual medicine guide, but also a martial arts
Only those with high strength can integrate their own internal energy into the medicine to be effective. Hero Boyi has spent a lot of internal energy over the years. I think Daxia Meng is Miss Ruojun’s fiancé, so this time, he should do it for me."
"This..." I frowned slightly, but I didn't know what to say.
