The city lord sent someone to settle down Han Yu, and invited him the best pharmacist in Dongling City.
At this time, he had already changed into a suit of clothes. The white robe with dark silver lines and the big light blue coat made him look even more elegant and handsome, but his indifference and alienation did not decrease at all.
The fact that he was injured by the demon king but survived was very strange, but he couldn't think of the reason.
The pharmacist also shook his head and didn't know why, so he just changed the cloth strips and gave him the medicine.
Although the city lord is not enthusiastic about rejuvenating the city and reassuring the people, it can be seen that he is extremely good at receiving people.
The furnishings in the room are all luxurious, smoke curls up from the incense burner, and expensive incense is lit.
It's just that Han Yu hated these fragrances the most, with a wave of his light blue wide sleeves, the incense burner was completely extinguished, and even the last wisp of smoke was trapped in the incense burner and annihilated.
In the whole room, only the green buds from Xuefeng in the teapot suit him.
He sips his tea.
Suddenly remembered that when she was buried in his chest, the smell in her breath was exactly the smell of tea.
No wonder he felt familiar.
The guard knocked on the door and entered the room, and asked respectfully: "There will be a banquet in the city tonight, and the city lord respectfully invites the immortal family to drive."
"No need." Holding the teacup, he refused decisively.
After the guard left, he lay on his side on the bed, propped his head on his hands, and closed his eyes.
He tried to recall what happened to his injury last night, but he completely lost consciousness due to the severe injury.
Only the feeling of the warm and slender body clinging to him was left in my memory.
Thinking of this, he immediately stopped thinking.
But as long as he calms down, the surrounding noises will be heard in his ears.
For example, a strange singing sound.
- Lu la la, lu la la, bath la la la ~
Han Yu frowned slightly.
ugly.
This weird and incomparably tuneless singing stopped after a while.
Until hearing the sound of splashing water, Han Yu suddenly realized that she was taking a bath.
Her eyebrows jumped, and she was about to cast a sound-proof spell, but she heard her gentle voice:
—Eggy, let me wash it for you too~
Han Yu:
—You are dark...and so pretty, probably the most beautiful egg I have ever seen.
Han Yu's face suddenly turned cold, she actually brought back that demon egg
It's just that the egg is already a dead egg.
The demon king's egg is only produced once every five thousand years, and it must be watered with the blood of living people on the fifteenth day of each month after birth.
It takes four years to absorb enough blood from seven to forty-nine people before they can hatch.
As long as there is one interruption, the egg will wither and die.
However, the sacrifice was obviously not successful last night.
Since it's a dead egg, let her go.
Lin Xiaocha held the fluorescent black egg in his hand, his eyes were deep and thoughtful.
At this time, the door was knocked, Lin Xiaocha hurriedly covered it with clothes, and then returned to the tub by herself.
A pair of eyes returned to their ignorant and innocent appearance.
A group of people carried the rich rewards of the city lord into the door.
Thinking of those gold, silver and jewels, her heart was turbulent, but her face was calm.
Through the screen, he said softly, "Thank you, City Lord."
"You can thank yourself at the banquet." A female voice that didn't sound young came.
"Huh? Banquet?"
"Yes, the city lord appointed you to go."
A shrewd-looking old woman walked behind the screen, took a cloth towel and went to help Lin Xiaocha take a bath.
Lin Xiaocha groaned, wrapped her arms around her chest in embarrassment, and shrank into the tub.
"Don't be shy, just get used to it."
Then Lin Xiaocha came out slowly, resting her chin on the side of the tub, looking at the old woman with hazy eyes.
She was originally graceful, but she looked even more hazy in the mist.
"The girl is so handsome." The old woman couldn't help sighing, "Even this old slave can't take his eyes off her."
After Lin Xiaocha came out, the old woman helped her dry off the water on her body. She sniffed Lin Xiaocha, "Why does it smell like tea?"
Only then did Lin Xiaocha realize that after smelling it, it really smelled like green tea, with a bit of bitterness, but it was sweet when smelled carefully.
Is this the smell on the original owner
The old woman frowned, "There happens to be incense in the reward, and the old slave will light it for you later. If you are lucky enough to be favored by the city lord, the city lord doesn't like your bitter taste."
Lin Xiaocha covered her mouth with her sleeve and said "Huh?", as if surprised by what the old woman said.
The old woman looked ambiguous, "Silly girl, don't you grasp such a good opportunity to approach the city lord? Do you want to be a refugee for the rest of your life?"
Seeing Lin Xiaocha, the old woman looked at her half-understanding, as if she couldn't understand what she said.
He couldn't help but sighed, it's a pity that this face is not clever.
Han Yu found that today he couldn't calm down and not be disturbed by external voices.
In the end, he used a sound-proof spell to fall asleep, but even when he fell asleep, his brows were slightly folded.
Lin Xiaocha touched the gold, silver, jewelry, silk and satin in the room seventeen or eight times.
Luxury.
she likes.
She remembers that when she was in junior high school, many students in the class wore brand-name clothes. She didn't say it, but she was envious in her heart.
There was a boy from a good family at school who gave her a pair of expensive sneakers.
Thousands of shoes are too expensive for junior high school students, she dare not accept them, and she thinks it is wrong to accept other people's things.
But those shoes are so pretty.
After I came back, I begged my mother, and I also wanted a pair of brand-name sneakers, and the ones that were discounted in different seasons were fine. She could not buy clothes or shoes for two years.
She thought that her mother would reject it outright, but she didn't expect her mother to say that she only needs to be in the top five in the class in the mid-term exam.
She remembered that at that time, she got up early to memorize vocabulary and did exercises like a chicken blood.
Eat to learn, sleep to learn.
The mid-term exam really went from twenty to fourth in the class.
When she was happily looking for her mother with her grades.
But my mother said: Look, can learning bring you unexpected happiness
A pair of shoes doesn't matter at all.
She broke her promise.
If she had refused straight away, Lin Xiaocha would not have been sad, after all, the family's finances have only just begun to improve.
But the saddest thing in the world is to look forward to something with full expectation, and finally find out that it is a complete lie.
Still a lie under the banner of "for your own good".
Lin Xiaocha cried bitterly all night.
It was the first time that she, who had always been obedient, had such a violent reaction.
The mother became completely angry, and pulled Lin Xiaocha who was crying under the quilt, and angrily scolded her for not knowing how difficult it is for her to be a single parent! I don't know that studying is for myself. After reading the book, I only know how to eat and wear!
Then he took out a notebook, which clearly recorded how much money he had spent for Lin Xiaocha, and said that he would ask her for it in the future.
Said that she is a white-eyed wolf, not knowing how hard she is.
It is not good to say that she used her mind to compare food with clothes and study.
In anger, she threw out a pair of old shoes on her feet and gave her a pair of old cloth shoes from her grandmother.
Let her remember bitterness and sweetness, and think about the suffering of the older generation.
Let her concentrate on her studies and study well at school, naturally no one will look down on you!
Adults just use their own ideas to measure the child's world.
As everyone knows, the cruelty of the world of children is no less than that of adults.
The next day, she was ridiculed by her classmates for wearing cloth shoes. She still remembers the feeling of scalp numbness.
She lay on the table unable to lift her head.
Until the boy put the shoes back on his desk...
That's when she discovered that she had opened the door to a new world.
…
A burst of rich fragrance interrupted Lin Xiaocha's thoughts.
She looked at the brass-colored censer, and the cigarettes were curling up inside. She thought it was lit by the old woman before she left.
She extinguished the spices burning in the incense burner, and felt that the tea smell on her body was quite good, much more elegant than the strong aromatherapy.
She took a light green skirt and compared it in front of the bronze mirror, with a charming smile on her beautiful face.
