After the clearing, I was forced to tease the fourth master every day

Chapter 837 About the Mountain Monster

In early autumn, the weather seems to be getting hotter and hotter.

After they stayed in Khalkha for less than ten days, they set off for Horqin again.

Wen Jiu's work has been going well recently.Master Guangci still didn't make any movement, he just talked about Zen with the Empress Dowager every day, almost two o'clock and one line, very quiet.

If it is to go to Horqin, the Queen Mother is the happiest one.Even Master Guangci, who she had always admired the most, was gone, and she was just waiting for Wenjiu to come back.

"Jiu'er, you are done. The Ai family has been waiting for you for a long time."

In the carriage, the queen mother smiled and grabbed Wen Jiu's hand and let her get on the carriage.

Wen Jiu wiped the sweat from his forehead: "Empress Dowager, if you have something to ask for wine, just ask someone to pass it on."

"No rush, come and help the Ai family to see, is the Ai family's clothes good-looking?" The queen mother said with a smile: "You have a good eye, you have to come and show the Ai family. The Ai family Just rest assured."

The queen mother said, and took out another jewelry box.

"You also come to pick out these jewelry for Aijia."

Wen Jiu took it and smiled: "Leave it to Jiu'er. I promise that when you return to Horqin two days later, you will be the most energetic one, Queen Mother."

The Queen Mother smiled happily: "You still understand Aijia's heart. Aijia entered the imperial city at the age of 13 and has not returned for decades. Naturally, you have to be more energetic to visit them. Wine, don't use it too expensive jewelry. It’s not beautiful if it’s too luxurious.”

"Hey." Wen Jiu picked up a string of oriental beads in the box: "The color of these oriental beads is very good, and it suits your complexion very well, Queen Mother. The color is also bright, with a hint of nobility, and it is not like goldware." So graceful, it is quite appropriate."

The queen mother glanced at it, and couldn't help shaking her head: "Aijia's complexion is dark, so bright Dongzhu always looks a bit worse when you wear it. Besides, Aijia is getting old, so it's not easy to wear such a bright pearl." .”

Wen Jiu put it down with a smile, and said: "Empress Dowager, look at this dark green emerald jade head? It's white in color. It's rare that the workmanship is not too complicated, so it's very suitable for your empress to wear."

The queen mother looked in the mirror, and frowned again: "Jiu'er, don't you think this green is a bit old-fashioned?"

Wen Jiu blinked, then glanced at the Empress Dowager, and immediately laughed: "Empress Dowager, in fact, you look good in whatever you wear. It's just that the top priority is to take care of your skin first.

You said, isn’t this face the first thing people see when they see us?The second is the hairpin jewelry and clothing accessories on the body.Will Jiu'er help you maintain your skin?When your skin is well maintained, no matter what you wear, it will be excellent. "

The queen mother waved her hands when she heard this: "Aijia is so old, how can he take care of his skin? You child can make Aijia happy."

"Queen Mother, in short, we have nothing to do on the road, so let Jiu'er try it. Jiu'er has some ways to nourish the skin. There are still two days left, and the Queen Mother will definitely see the effect!"

"You, you!" The Queen Mother nodded the warm wine on the forehead: "Forget it, let you be a monkey."

"Jiu'er will help you clean your face first. Also, please trouble Mother Fang to prepare some fresh cucumbers."

"Why do you want to eat cucumbers now, kid? But are you thirsty?"

Wen Jiu only smiled: "Madam, cucumbers are not for eating, but for maintaining our skin. Applying cucumber slices on the face can make the skin firm and elastic."

"Really so magical?" The queen mother also became a little interested.

Warm Jiu: "Just watch it, Jiu'er will help you try it once, and you will know whether it works or not."

The queen mother laughed when she heard this: "Okay, okay, it's up to you. How did you come back so early today? The Ai family thought they would wait until evening for you."

As she said that, the Empress Dowager blamed again: "Your Majesty, I don't know what's wrong, so many ministers of civil and military affairs don't need it, but I just let a little girl go to the front to work with those men. The previous court was bitter and tiring. Aijia see You've lost weight these days."

Wen Jiu replied with a smile: "Queen Mother, it's too late for Jiu'er to share His Majesty's worries, he doesn't feel any pain at all.

I came back early today, but it was because of the good news from the previous dynasty. "

"Oh?" The Queen Mother raised her eyebrows: "But the case of the mountain demon is closed?"

Wen Jiu was taken aback, then nodded immediately: "Your Majesty, you actually know?"

"The Ai family guessed it." The Empress Dowager said: "This is what the emperor is most worried about when he entered Japan. For this matter, several officials have been demoted. Counting the time, the case should be closed."

Speaking of which, the Queen Mother laughed: "Did someone be caught?"

Wen Jiu's eyes widened in shock: "Your Majesty, you are amazing. Today, the officials sent to the palace came back and said that they captured a witch doctor from a tribe, and the mountain monster was caused by that old witch doctor." ghost.

The only thing is, this witch doctor has practiced poisonous kung fu.Because the villagers in the small tribe no longer respect him as the leader of the tribe.He poisoned the villagers in order to regain his leadership.That's why there was such a big disturbance.

Now the witch doctor has been captured.The emperor said that he sent him back to Beijing.Temporarily imprisoned in heaven. "

After Wen Jiu finished speaking in one breath, he said again: "Queen Mother, Your Majesty is in a good mood today. It is said that there is no need to reply next time. Let's go back and rest. Jiu'er will be back sooner so I can accompany you."

"Heh," the Queen Mother laughed when she heard that, "A witch doctor has such a great ability? Now these officials are really more and more able to do things."

Wen Jiu didn't dare to follow these words, he just said: "There is such a vicious person, if he is caught, he will really eliminate harm for the people."

Speaking of which, the ideas of Wenjiu and the queen mother coincided with each other.

Later, she and fourth master found time to go back to that cave.

The herbs were gone.The giant python was gone too.But the corpses of those mountain monsters were still left in pieces at the entrance of the cave.

It was fourth master who burned it clean.

Now a witch doctor appeared out of nowhere, hurting so many people just because he wanted to regain his former dignity?Wen Jiu felt that this was not an easy matter.

Thinking about it carefully, almost all the people in that small tribe were killed or injured.

If the witch doctor really wanted to continue to be the leader of the tribe, why did he kill so many people?It's enough to kill chickens one or two to make an example to monkeys, and then fool the masses.

And those mountain monsters don't have a drop of blood on their bodies.There was a strong resentment on the corpse, like a person who died in vain and was controlled by magic.

This matter is unusual, Wen Jiu has also seen these monsters in memory fragments, and always feels that he has something to do with that monk.

The queen mother just snorted: "I hope so."

Wen Jiu smiled immediately and said: "Mother, let's not talk about this. You can't frown, you need to be calm when you take care of your cheeks, and the skin will be broken later."

"You are used to coaxing Ai's family. But what you said is true, Ai's family can't frown."

The queen mother laughed, and then said: "Wait a while and then you can help the Ai family choose some gifts. The Ai family has not come back for so many years, and I don't know what the children of the nephew and nephew like. You are young, and you must be happy." Almost, help Aijia to take a look."

"Hey, Jiu'er must do his best."
