The cannon fodder of the era is really a daughter, and she is reborn with the system

Chapter 169 Snow Mountain Chalcedony

Si Yannian immediately said after hearing this: "Leave this matter to me. I know there is an underground ice cellar in the south of the city used to store ice. We can go there."

"Okay, let's go now." Su Ruo said immediately. No matter what, she couldn't find those men to insult the master's wife.

Su Ruo and the others soon arrived at the ice cellar. Si Yannian didn't know what he said to the steward, but the steward only looked at Su Ruo and the others and let them in.

The moment the heavy door of the underground cold storage opened, Su Ruo and the others suddenly felt a deep chill.

At this time, the hot weather in midsummer and the biting chill in the cold storage immediately formed a sharp contrast, it was like a world of ice and fire.

The steward gave Su Ruo and the others a military coat and asked them to put it on.

But even so, Su Ruo and the others were still shivering from the cold after they walked in.

The only good news is that the snake poison in Master's wife finally settled down and fell into a deep sleep.

Si Yannian found some more cotton trousers, cotton shoes, hats, quilts and a hand stove for Su Ruo and the others to keep warm. With these, Su Ruo and the others were finally not so cold.

Because the night was too long, they started chatting, and then Su Ruo realized that Guan Yue was an orphan.

She was abandoned by her parents when she was a child and was raised by her master. Guan Yue's master was a Taoist priest, so Guan Yue traveled with her master since she was a child. They lived in no fixed place and spent a lot of time in the mountains.

Later, Guan Yue's master felt that when his apprentice grew up, he should have more contact with people and things outside. It happened that the country had liberalized the college entrance examination, so he encouraged Guan Yue to take the college entrance examination.

Although Guan Yue traveled around with her master over the years, the master never gave up her studies. Only then was Guan Yue admitted to university.

Si Yannian also told some interesting stories from his childhood. Although it was very cold, the atmosphere between the two of them was quite harmonious.

Su Ruo and the others stayed up all night in the cold storage and didn't come out of the cold storage until dawn.

Because the snake poison only attacks at night and will fade away naturally during the day, it also gives Su Ruo and the others a chance to breathe.

But if they still can't find a cure for snake poison, Su Ruo and Mistress will have to spend every night in the ice cellar from now on.

Su Ruo was a little worried. Her body was different from ordinary people, so she wasn't worried. However, the master's wife's body was already weak. If things went on like this, the cold air would definitely enter her body and cause the disease.

What they are doing now is undoubtedly drinking poison to quench their thirst, but other than that, there is no better way.

Guan Yue advised: "Don't worry too much. I will study it after I go back. Maybe there will be other solutions."

Su Ruo nodded. No matter what, she remembered Guan Yue's kindness today and would definitely find a way to repay her in the future.

Si Yannian sent Guan Yue back to school first, and then sent Su Ruo and the others back to the courtyard.

After the mistress woke up, she seemed to have completely forgotten what happened last night and knew nothing about what happened before.

Su Ruo also tried to ask the teacher's wife some questions about Osmanthus fragrans, but all she got in response was the teacher's wife's ignorant and innocent smile. After a few times, Su Ruo gave up.

Su Ruo stayed in the small courtyard during the day and accompanied the mistress to the cold storage at night. Such days lasted for many days.

This day, Tian Guanyue came to Su Ruo with excitement and said that she had found a way to suppress the snake poison.

Guan Yue was afraid that Su Ruo would not understand, so she took out an ancient book, pointed to the complicated words on it, and said to Su Ruo: "It is recorded here that on the top of the snow mountain, a kind of chalcedony will be produced. This chalcedony has been condensed for thousands of years. , also known as ice jade by the world, it belongs to the most yin and cold things in the world. If we can find it, it may be able to suppress the snake poison in your master's body."

Su Ruo looked at Guan Yue gratefully. As long as she could save the teacher's wife, no matter how difficult it was, she would give it a try.

Si Yannian immediately said: "I will ask someone to inquire about it now."

What surprised Su Ruo was that Song Jingyu actually had this ice jade.

According to the information Si Yannian received, Song Jingyu accidentally obtained a piece of ice jade while performing a mission. Later, someone offered him a high price to buy it, but Song Jingyu did not sell it.

If it was not necessary, Si Yannian did not want Su Ruo to get too involved with Song Jingyu. Song Jingyu's work was too dangerous, and his sister might be implicated together with him.

Su Ruo's eyes lit up. If Song Jingyu had ice jade, she should be able to borrow it. At worst, she would give Song Jingyu some more money as compensation.

Su Ruo immediately found the note Song Jingyu left behind when he left and made a call.

Su Ruo thought that Song Jingyu would look for her, but she didn't expect that he would move so fast.

Su Ruo heard a knock on the door and went to open the courtyard door, and saw Song Jingyu leaning against the wall in the afterglow of the setting sun.

At this moment, the golden sunshine in the sky shone on Song Jingyu's body, making his already handsome and upright face even more dazzling. Su Ruo's heartbeat was inexplicably faster.

Song Jingyu looked very tired, as if he hadn't slept well in several days. He leaned against the wall tiredly, which made him a little more ruffian.

After seeing Su Ruo, Song Jingyu threw a box directly to her. When Su Ruo opened it, it was clear that the ice jade Su Ruo wanted was inside.

Su Ruo didn't expect that Song Jingyu would give her such a valuable thing so easily.

Just when Su Ruo was about to thank him, Song Jingyu said, "Thank you for healing my leg."

When Su Ruo wanted to speak again, Song Jingyu had already left.

Su Ruo quickly shouted to his back: "I will return it to you after I use it."

But Song Jingyu didn't care and waved her hand, obviously not caring about this piece of jade worth thousands of gold.

Song Jingyu got into the green car parked at the entrance of the alley. Someone immediately teased him: "Boss, is that my sister-in-law? It's something important. Please come in person and just give us an order."

Song Jingyu glanced at him, and the man immediately didn't dare to say anything.

The car started, and the corners of Song Jingyu's lips raised slightly. Even he didn't know clearly that he had not slept for three days after completing the mission, but after hearing Su Ruo's message, he insisted on delivering it himself, as if Just to take a look at her.

After Su Ruo watched Song Jingyu leave, he immediately took the ice jade in and put it on his wife, and carefully observed her condition.

When the sky darkened little by little and night fell, there was nothing unusual about the mistress. Su Ruo couldn't help but breathed a sigh of relief. This ice jade was really useful.

After solving the matter of the mistress, the stone that was weighing on Su Ruo's heart finally fell to the ground, but she still did not give up looking for Osmanthus fragrans. However, after Osmanthus fragrans escaped, it was as if the world had evaporated, and there was no news from her anymore.
