Let’s Make a Pact, Lord Fox Spirit

Chapter 216: Feeling suspicious

Views:

Fangqi intuitively felt that the prince in front of her did not have a very good IQ, and thought that even if she gave him the prescription, he might not be able to prepare the correct elixir. At that time, if the medicine is given to the little girl but it has no effect, the guy with the pigtails will inevitably come here again and cause trouble for himself. So after writing the recipe, he distributed the medicinal materials to be cooked every day according to the amount, and prepared enough for three months before handing them over to him.

Wangyue didn't know that Fangqi's real thoughts were just because she was afraid of trouble. When she saw her doing things so thoughtfully, she thought she was actually a gentle and kind-hearted person. She suddenly felt grateful but didn't know how to express her gratitude to her. Finally, he said to her sheepishly: "Fangqi, you are such a good person! I was so offended before. If there is a chance in the future, I will definitely bring the little snow rabbit to visit to express my gratitude!"

"No, no! It's just a matter of a finger, it's a matter of a finger!" Fangqi waved her hand to decline, praying secretly in her heart that he would never bother her again.

After successfully obtaining the elixir prescription and the medicinal materials prepared by Fangqi, Wangyue put them together into the backpack he brought, and decided to set off immediately to return to the royal city of Yongchuan. When the little snow rabbit regained consciousness after taking the medicine, he would have the opportunity to ask who she had been in contact with before she was poisoned. In fact, as soon as he heard Fangqi say that it was probably a revenge seeker who poisoned her, he felt 70% sure that Qingyun was the one who was so ruthless and unscrupulous.

If this is true, then there will be another debt between him and Qingyun that has to be settled. The life of his brother Tingyue alone is enough for him to cut Qingyun into pieces with a thousand knives. Now his claws have reached out again. To his brother's daughter, Little Snow Rabbit, his only living relative. Thinking of this, he couldn't help clenching his fists, veins bulging out, silently thinking in his heart that he would never forgive that monster.

After bidding farewell to Heye's family, he summoned the demon horse and headed straight for the royal city. The beautiful scenery like a rainbow in the green soil quickly disappeared behind him. The next day, he successfully arrived in the royal city of Yongchuan, but he did not go back directly to Wutong Garden. Instead, he took a detour to the shopping street and bought some peach preserves and fruit candies in the store.

As soon as he entered Wutong Garden, he naturally called up his sister-in-law Miao Xueyou:

"Sister-in-law! Sister-in-law!"

Although he was not close to his sister-in-law, if he had called her like this in the past, she would have come out to greet him. But today, after calling her many times, the room was still so quiet, so quiet that you could hear a pin drop. He opened the door and walked into the hall. Half a bowl of tea was still warm on the table, but there was no one there.

He called a few more times while walking inside, but there was still no response. It seemed that Miao Xueyou was indeed not at home, so he had to go and check on the little snow rabbit first. The little snow rabbit lying on the bed was still in a coma, her forehead and face were covered with beads of sweat. Mochizuki touched the copper basin next to her and saw that the water inside was still warm, and even the bag containing medicinal materials she was carrying I didn't even have time to take it off, so I soaked the handkerchief on the basin in the water, then wrenched the water away to wipe away the sweat from the little snow rabbit.

Looking at the painful little snow rabbit, he felt unhappy and muttered: "The child is still ill, why did the mother run out by herself?!"

The little Snow Rabbit seemed to hear his voice, its eyelashes trembled slightly, and she also made a sound. Mochizuki could only pick her up and wipe the sweat on her neck and back. As an uncle, he was not able to wipe the other places. After all, Little Snow Rabbit was already a girl of fifteen or sixteen years old. . After wiping away the sweat, he asked her to lie back down, covered her with the quilt, and prepared to boil today's medicine for her.

He came to the kitchen and found that the place was much messier than he imagined. His sister-in-law Miao Xueyu was a bit of a germophobe, so she was probably too busy taking care of the little snow rabbit to clean up. He took off the backpack containing the medicine and took out a day's worth of medicinal materials that Fangqi had divided. After searching around for a long time, he dug out the medicine pot.

"Five bowls of water make one bowl. Five bowls of water...big bowl or small bowl?" He muttered, and put the medicine pot on the fire to fry according to the steps Fangqi taught him.

After the medicine was cooked, he immediately reached for the medicine pot in a hurry, but was burned and had to pour the medicine into the bowl. He put it under his nose and smelled it. Sure enough, it didn't taste very good. He couldn't help but worry that the little snow rabbit would feel uncomfortable after drinking it. Fortunately, he had been prepared.

He took the medicine and walked to Xiaoxuetu's room, but met Miaoxueyou who was hurried back from outside. Miaoxueyou's hair was messy and her red cheeks looked like she had just argued with someone. Seeing Wangyue, she was stunned for a moment, then straightened her hair a little, and then asked calmly: "Wangyue, are you back from Qingyang so soon?"

"Yes, sister-in-law! Where did you go just now?" Mochizuki asked her suspiciously.

"Well... a friend just came to see me for something, so I followed her out for a while."

Mochizuki could clearly tell that Miao Xueyou was deliberately hiding something. He remembered that he had seen a suspicious person walking out of Wutong Garden at the door during the New Year, and connected it with the fact that the little snow rabbit was poisoned. , and even more suspected that Miao Xueyou knew something inside, but did not dare to tell him because of the threat.

"Sister-in-law, I went to Qingyang this time to meet a medicine witch. Based on the various symptoms I mentioned about the little snow rabbit, she concluded that she was not suffering from a strange disease but was poisoned!" He said tentatively.

"Oh?!" Miao Xueyou's eyes were obviously avoiding looking at Mochizuki.

"I was wondering if Qingyun sent someone to poison her because of my relationship. Do you have any new discoveries?" Mochizuki continued to ask.

"No, Xuetu has been drowsy these days, so I can't ask anything." Miaoxueyu denied.

Seeing this, Mochizuki felt that she might really have something to hide, so she had to wait and seek the answer directly from Little Snow Rabbit, so she said to Miao Xueyou: "Although the medicine witch couldn't cure the poison in Little Snow Rabbit, it gave him the answer." I have a recipe that can suspend toxins. I just boiled the medicine and fed it to her while it was still hot. Then I will tell you in detail!"

Miao Xueyou responded with relief: "Okay! Let me feed her, and you can help me pick her up later!"

Mochizuki followed Miao Xueyou back to Xuetu's room, first fed her the medicine, and then took out a piece of candy from her pocket and put it in her mouth. The medicine took effect quickly. In just half an hour, the expression on Snow Rabbit's face was no longer as painful as before, and the sweating condition had also improved. During this time, Mochizuki also recounted to Miao Xueyou from beginning to end what Yao Wu said to him.

He couldn't tell whether the expression on Miao Xueyou's face was in a trance or surprised when she listened to him, but it was not as panic-stricken as he expected. She obviously knew something, but she decided not to say it for some unknown reason.

After coming out of Wutong Garden, before Wang Yue could walk back to Chenji Palace, he heard the chirping of birds above his head. He raised his head and saw that it was thorns.

"Lord Hongye asked me to send you a message. They just returned from the virgin forest near Miancheng and went straight to Ouyang's ancient house." The little red bird transformed by thorns said to him.

"Okay, I'll rush over right now!"

Mochizuki responded, but she was still thinking about the poisoning of the little snow rabbit in her heart, looking a little absent-minded. Both feet were still walking in the direction of Chenji Palace. After walking a few steps, he realized it again, so he said to himself, "Oh, no, I should go to Ouyang's ancient residence!"

In the living room of Ouyang's ancient house, Ouyang Xiaoleng and Qianqi were sleeping at one end of the big sofa, while Lingyu was curled up in the small sofa and sleeping soundly. Dong Muya walked around in the underground database, flipping through information that might be related to the Four Fallen Gods. Ouyang Hongye, who originally wanted to accompany her, fell asleep on Dong Muya's big table because of exhaustion. .

When Dong Muya came over to pour coffee, she stared at Ouyang Hongye's face that was particularly soft under the warm yellow light and stood there for a long time. No matter how many years passed, she still didn't get tired of looking at him. At this moment, there happened to be a strand of hair hanging on his face. She reached out to help him tuck it behind his ear, but he woke up because of it.

She quickly took her hand back, smiled sheepishly and said, "I must have woken you up!"

"It's okay, I haven't slept so peacefully for a long time." Ouyang Hongye got up from the table and replied, rubbing his eyes that were still sleepy.

He knew that the reason why he slept so deeply was firstly because he was still tired from coming here directly after returning from the Origin Sin Blood Pond, and more importantly because Dong Muya was by his side. While thinking about this, he unconsciously stared straight into her eyes.

Dong Muya became more and more shy, and couldn't help laughing that she had known Ouyang Hongye for thirty years, but how could she still blush like a little girl when he looked at her. She had long understood the boundary between demons and humans, and also understood that there was always an irreplaceable person in his heart, so she decided to stay by his side as a friend, because silent protection was the privilege of a friend. But even so, he still often loses his mind and is swayed by him.

Just now, accompanied by the aroma of coffee and the faint smell of tobacco in the room, Ouyang Hongye had a dream. In the dream, the window in the living room of Ouyang's ancient house was open, and he was sitting facing the water outside the window as before. Ouyang Xueye was playing the guqin behind him. At this time, Ran Susu handed him a cup of hot tea, and he recalled that this seemed to be the scene when Ouyang Xueye and Ran Susu decided to get married and he came as a guest.

At that time, he barely suppressed his feelings for Ran Susu, always afraid that he would accidentally reveal his true thoughts. This was his last chance. Whether he wanted to confess to her or simply snatch her away, it was not like he had never had this impulse before. After all, Ran Susu was the true love he had not met until he had lived for hundreds of years. Loved ones. But on the other side, there was Ouyang Xueye who had the same weight for him.

He was tormented by the contradiction in his heart. He thought about walking away many times, but he couldn't let go of him and her. Both people were so important to him, and for either of them, he would give up his life without hesitation. This may be the so-called will of God. Who knows that God's will not only plays tricks on people, but even monsters can't escape it.

Ran Susu was immersed in the longing for the upcoming wedding. Like all women, her whole body was filled with happiness, and even her smile was as sweet as honey. She silently sat next to Ouyang Hongye, and also cast her eyes towards the yard and said, "Hongye, do you know? When Xue Ye and I have a child in the future, you must be his adoptive father!"

"Why?" Ouyang Hongye asked her awkwardly.

"Because you are one of the best people in the world to me and Xue Ye, so I know you will be so kind to our children!" Ran Susu turned to him and replied.

Ouyang Hongye didn't speak, just laughed in relief. All his conflicts were solved by Ran Susu's simple words.
