She became a black lotus after cultivating immortality

Chapter 5 Moon Black Wind High Night

Mu Shanjing quickly wrapped his arms around Yu Hua's shoulders and pulled her into his arms, "Are you okay? Are you still not feeling well?" Yu Hua suddenly understood his intentions, leaned her weight into his arms, and nodded. nod.

Unexpectedly, in the next second, Mu Shanjing directly hugged her up, and in an instant, she smelled a scent of heavy wood, which was very pleasant, and her face was completely buried in his arms, covered by the hat , others can't see it at all.

"Excuse me, my sister has been in poor health since she was a child, and she needs to take medicine." Mu Shanjing said as he walked past Li Jinnian and his party, and carried Yu Hua up the stairs briskly.

After entering the room, Mu Shanjing put Yu Hua on the edge of the bed and sat down, only to see that her face was stained with a layer of crimson due to the lack of breath just now, so he turned around and opened the window for ventilation, and fell down again. Gave her a cup of hot water, "Warm your hands, drink it after it's warm, I'll ask someone to cook the medicine." As he spoke, he packed the medicine very skillfully. Seeing him like this, Yu Hua breathed a sigh of relief, and teased him with a chuckle : "I didn't expect Mr. Yu to be so proficient in technique now."

Mu Shanjing smiled, and replied casually: "Actually, I'm not so proficient just now." But he didn't continue talking, just packed the medicine bag and immediately went to boil the medicine.

Yu Hua got up and closed the door, coughed twice, walked to the window, looked out through the small opening, and saw a carriage parked in the backyard, Wang Po and her husband were standing by the side of the carriage, it seemed that The wheel was cracked and never fixed.

The room where the medicine was cooked was also in the backyard. Seeing Mu Shanying's figure flashing into the pharmacy, Yu Hua worried that they would find her, so she sat back on the bed to rest.

After Mu Shanjing came back, the charcoal fire in the room was also very hot, Yu Hua took off the cloak and put it aside, turned around and saw that Mu Shanjing brought a bag of candied fruit from somewhere and baked it on the fire, and said with a smile: "After you finish drinking the medicine and eat a candied fruit, it won't be bitter."

Yu Hua has never eaten candied fruit, such things are not common in their place, but she feels that the fruit brought back by her father can also relieve suffering.

But she took the roasted candied fruit anyway and thanked him "Thank you."

"No, you have said so much thank you along the way."

Yu Hua smiled softly, "I know, but I still want to thank you, and thank you just now."

"You're welcome." Mu Shanjing responded while fiddling with the charcoal fire.

Guessing that the medicine was almost cold, Yu Hua drank a large bowl of medicine in one gulp, and said with a half smile, "But I didn't expect you to react so quickly just now."

"Maybe I did have a younger sister in the past, and I picked it up right away." Mu Shanjingfeng said calmly, "She used to be in poor health, and she couldn't go out of the house every time it was severe winter. When I was young, I died in the wind and snow." Died in the palace with yellow tiles and red walls, under many palace gates.

".Sorry." Yu Hua lowered her voice and whispered, subconsciously put the candied fruit into her mouth and took a bite, a sweet taste burst out on the tip of her tongue.

"It's okay, I'm not someone who lives in the past." Mu Shanjing smiled, looked up and saw her eating candied fruit, and asked with a smile: "Is it delicious?"

"Yeah!" Yu Hua nodded vigorously, and said with a smile, "I've never eaten such a sweet thing."

"It's good if you like it, there's plenty of it, but don't eat too much, or you'll get a toothache." Mu Shanjing said with a smile, feeling that the wind was getting stronger outside, he walked to the window and closed it a little bit, his eyes widened. Hanging, seeing the Wang Po below, her eyes darkened slightly.

Just now when I borrowed their back kitchen to make medicine, I heard the two discussing in a low voice. One said: "The little girl must not be able to bear such a cold day. It's a hard life. She shouldn't have taken this train with Li Yuanwai." Said: "Everything has been done, why are you being merciful here? Let me tell you, old woman, we use money to do things, and we don't have the heart that shouldn't be."

Although there were only two short sentences, judging from Yu Hua's strange reaction just now, Mu Shanjing had a rough idea of ​​the matter in his heart, but Yu Hua didn't say anything, and he didn't intend to ask.

Seeing that the sky was getting dark, Yu Hua was already a little sleepy. The road up the mountain tomorrow would be difficult, and she had to gather enough energy. She was about to tell Mu Shanjing that she was going to rest, but when she looked up, she saw him hugging a mattress. To go out, she wondered: "It's so late, where are you going?"

"Oh, I see someone down there is still drinking, so go down and have a drink or two, and then sleep down there." Mu Shanjing replied.

"Sleep below, but below" Yu Hua was interrupted by Mu Shanjing with a smile before she finished speaking, "It's okay, it's warm down there, after all, there are shopkeepers there, they can burn charcoal fire, I'm in good health That is to say, I don’t know how late it is after drinking, you don’t need to worry about me, just close the door and sleep peacefully.” He didn’t wait for Yu Hua to speak any more, and went out the door with the mattress in his arms.

The room became quiet all of a sudden, Yu Hua took a deep breath, got up, put out the candle, and lay down on the bed.

Even though she knew that she needed to maintain her energy, she tossed and turned and couldn't sleep. Through the thin layer of underwear, Yu Hua carefully touched the traces of the letter.

There are still too many unknowns ahead, not to mention whether the Taoist priest is a liar or not, it has been so many years now, even if it is true, whether the person remembers it or not, is another matter .

After all, Qingyunmen's Immortal Ascension Conference has not yet come, so it is inevitable that I will knock on the mountain gate if I go so rashly.
She shook her head, trying not to think about it, but the more she tried to forget it, the more her thoughts became entangled with such things, and she couldn't fall asleep even more.

It was late at night like this, and the wine party downstairs seemed to have ended, and the night became more and more quiet, but Yu Hua still couldn't sleep, and then remembered, it's so big down there, what can a little charcoal fire warm up?

But before she could think about it, she suddenly heard footsteps coming from outside the corridor, hurried and dense, sounding sneaky, Yu Hua immediately grabbed the quilt and listened carefully, fortunately, the footsteps were not coming towards her room , but towards the door in the southeast corner.

The room in the southeast corner, Yu Hua quickly went through the layout she saw today in her mind. There were guards guarding the southeast door. If she guessed correctly, it seemed to be Li Jinnian's room. Only she would set it up like this. Big panache.

The night seemed even quieter now. Yu Hua thought the breathing was too noisy, so she held her breath and listened intently to the movement outside, but only heard a muffled sound of falling to the ground, followed by a muffled exclamation.

Yu Hua could guess what happened with just a little thought, but she didn't dare to think about what would happen to a young lady who was as beautiful as a flower in this dark and windy night.

On the table downstairs, Mu Shanjing sat on the table with his back against the pillar, stepped on the edge of the table with one foot, and stepped on the ground with one foot casually. The moonlight could not illuminate his dark eyes. A copper coin was thrown high in the air and then caught, with the slight struggling sound upstairs,

Throw——take—

Toss again—and catch—

From the time he entered the door, he could see that this group of people were not good people, they carried swords all year round, they were not members of the imperial court, and their mortal bodies were mostly doing business in the fringe areas. Characters with an open eye for wealth and who bully the weak and fear the hard will just need to say a few words that the rich lady is a soft persimmon, and then encourage them, and they will naturally do it themselves.

However, he didn't intend to let them make too much trouble, and he would naturally take action when it was almost done.

Mu Shanjing caught the copper coins falling from the sky again, and was about to leave when he glanced out of the corner of his eye and suddenly saw thick smoke coming from Yuhua's room. Before he could get up there, he saw a package thrown out of the window. At the same time as the cloth covered with charcoal fire made a sound, the flames quickly sprang up.

"It's on fire, put out the fire!"
