Dream Maker [Rebirth]

Chapter 45 Jinsui Chonglou

The momentum of the young man's fall was as fast as lightning, and the pupils of several people constricted instantly.

It was too late and then quickly, Lu Cifei grabbed a vine in front of him, stepped on the rock wall and jumped a few feet, turned around half a circle on the spot and caught him in his arms!

"Wow!" Seeing that he was safe and sound, the boy patted his chest in surprise and said, "It's so dangerous!"

He said it was dangerous, but his expression was obviously excited, as if he still felt quite exciting.

Misang Yaoyue below was obviously quite frightened, at this moment she breathed a sigh of relief and then said angrily: "Get down quickly!"

Lu Ci was about to lead him to jump off, but unexpectedly, the young man firmly grasped the vine and said, "Hey, hey, I won't go down—brother, don't drag me!"

Lu Ci couldn't care less about correcting his messed-up address, he couldn't laugh or cry: "What exactly do you want?"

Seeing that he really relaxed his strength and stopped dragging himself, the young man gave a flattering "hehe" smile, grasped the vine with one hand, and raised the other hand to point upward mysteriously: "Look."

Lu Ci raised his head and followed his fingertips to look up. At first, he only saw a vine with entangled branches and leaves. It took a long time to vaguely see a touch of gold in the gap at the top of the vine.

It was a flower blooming in the crevices of the rock, with a slender flower stem and seven leaves around it. Several three or four inch long golden stamens hung from the golden top of the red calyx, like a purple golden crown with pheasant feathers.

"Jin Sui Chonglou?" Lu Ci asked in surprise.

Chonglou is a common herbal medicine used for detoxification. It is mostly born in the southwestern valleys where poisonous substances are abundant. Because the leaves are often surrounded by seven pieces, and the long stems are shaped like candlesticks, it is also called seven-leaf flower or candlestick seven. .

However, although the chrysanthemums are common, the golden spikes with red calyx and golden top and hanging silk stamens are extremely rare. Not only does it have the detoxification ability of ordinary chrysanthemums, but the few golden ears have the effect of nourishing the heart, lungs, promoting blood circulation and rejuvenating the skin. It is favored by folk women, and rich households often compete for its high price. Over time, there is a saying: the heavy building is inlaid with a golden roof, and one ear is worth a thousand gold.

"Huh? My brother is very knowledgeable!" The young man said curiously, as if he could recognize at a glance that the Jinsui Chonglou was something to be fussed about.

Lu Ci smiled helplessly: "You climbed up just to pick it?"

"Yes!" The boy nodded with a smile.

Lu Ci said: "That's easy, you go down first, and I will pick it for you."

"That can't be done!" The boy shook his head hastily, "Today is my birthday, I have to pick it myself!"

Lu Ci didn't understand the logic of these words for a long time, and blinked inexplicably: "What do you mean?"

The young man said solemnly: "Didn't everyone say 'the birthday of the son, the suffering of the mother'? Then today is my birthday, and I want to pick it for my mother, shouldn't I pick it myself?"

Lu Ci was slightly taken aback, but he really didn't expect it to be for such a reason.

He knew the origin of this "Young Palace Mistress", and knew that he was not the elder sister's own but an adopted son, but the meaning revealed by the young man's words seemed to be different.

Could it be...he actually doesn't know his own life experience?

Lu Ci hesitated for a moment, but in the end he didn't say much. After all, it would be fine if the young man knew, but if he really didn't know, it would be too sinful for an outsider like himself to talk too much.

Thinking about it this way, he simply stopped worrying and decided to help the young man fulfill his filial piety: "Okay, then you go, I will accompany you."

The young man smiled brightly, and after a loud "Yeah!", he clenched the vines with both hands and continued to climb up. Although the movement still seemed a little strenuous, he seemed to be full of energy.

Lu Ci followed closely behind, and whenever the boy was unstable, he would give him a little support, and the rest of the time he silently stood by and protected him, neither urging nor interfering.

Finally, the young man reached the top of the cliff panting heavily, holding the long stem of the golden spike building with one hand, and uprooted it from the cracks in the rock.

Lu Ci smiled slightly, stretched out his right hand to hold the young man's arm, and slightly let go of the vine with his left hand, leading the young man to slide down from the sky like a gust of wind.

As soon as he set foot on the ground, the young man rushed to Misang Yaoyue excitedly, raised the golden spike building and said with a smile, "Mother! Here it is for you!"

Missang Yaoyue was angry and funny, and raised her hand to poke his forehead reproachfully, but when she took the flowers, she couldn't hide her gratification, and she couldn't hold back her smile.

Lu Ci patted the dust in his hands, but just two steps forward, his wrist was suddenly grabbed, he turned his head and said inexplicably, "Huh?"

Ji Wuzhou grabbed his left hand and opened five fingers, and saw that the palm was indeed covered with small cracks, obviously just when he was going down the vine just now, he was scratched by the vine.

Lu Ciben didn't care about it yet, and he was a little stunned when he saw this, and then saw Ji Wuzhou's expression of about to attack, he quickly closed his fingers and made a fist and drew back his hand, jokingly said: "Hey, this small body is too delicate and tender oh, it’s quite unreliable, isn’t it?”

Ji Wuzhou glanced at him blankly, pulled his palm back and opened it, took out a porcelain bottle from his sleeve with the other hand, uncorked the cork, and poured the liquid medicine in the bottle into him in the palm of your hand.

The medicinal liquid was cold, and it was refreshing to wash the burning wound, Lu Ci gasped, and asked curiously, "Why do you have everything in your sleeve?"

Ji Wuzhou raised an eyebrow: "Because someone has nothing in his sleeve."

Lu Ci choked for a moment, but soon had an idea and pulled out the bottle of Du Yunli from his sleeve, shook it, and said with a playful smile, "Hey—it's not like there's nothing there!"

Ji Wuzhou let go of his wrist, and turned his eyes horizontally without seeing it. As if he didn't hear it, Lu Ci went down the slope to turn around, strode forward and handed Du Yunli to the young man: "Here, here's what I'm sending you." , birthday gift."

The young man turned his head in surprise, apparently he did not expect these two strangers who came suddenly to bring him a congratulatory gift, he was surprised and hesitated at the same time, hesitantly looked at Missang Yaoyue, as if he didn't know whether to accept it or not. .

Missang Yaoyue also personally melted and transported the wine, and now she recognized what it was when she saw the color of the water in the bottle, she couldn't help being surprised because of its preciousness, but fortunately this small bottle is not Too many, but it saved her a lot of worries, so she nodded slightly and said: "Take it."

The young man got the right words, happily took the glazed bottle, bent his eyes and smiled, "Thank you brother! I didn't have time to say it just now, thank you brother for helping me!"

"What are you yelling for?" Misang Yaoyue's brows twitched when she was called "brother" in two crisp voices, "They are all mother's juniors, and they are not in the same generation as you."

The young man stared in surprise: "No way? Does this elder brother look a few years older than me?"

After finishing speaking, he tilted his head to look at Ji Wuzhou who was behind Lu Ci, and said with a frown, "This one doesn't look like an elder either!"

Missang Yaoyue gave him an annoyed look, not wishing to continue to entangle with him in this seniority, turned to Lu Ci and asked, "What is the purpose of you coming here today?"

Lu Ci hesitated for a moment, he could have spoken bluntly about the matter of borrowing Gu, but it was related to Sangcheng, and what the young man said on the cliff just now made Lu Ci a little confused whether he knew his own life experience or not. I really don't know what to say about the boy's face.

So, his eyes paused on the young man's face for a moment, and he said lightly: "We want to ask the senior sister to borrow something."

Before Missang Yaoyue could ask a question, the young man came up and asked curiously, "What is it?"

Misang Yaoyue is not slow, just now from Lu Ci's eyes, he has seen that he seems to be shying away from her adopted son, at this moment, she calmly pulled the boy over and handed it to the disciple beside him, and ordered: "Make it He is covered in ashes, take him to wash and change his clothes."

The disciple nodded to accept the order, but unexpectedly the young man rolled his eyes slyly and said suspiciously: "Mother—are you trying to dismiss me?"

Several people were stunned, they were all surprised that this kid's mind was so vivid, Misang Yaoyue raised his hand and flicked his forehead: "What are you thinking? Hurry up."

The young man rubbed his head and curled his lips, and said reluctantly: "Then can I come back after washing?"

Missang Yaoyue had no choice but to perfunctoryly say: "It's up to you, okay?"

The young man chuckled, hurriedly pushed the disciple and said, "Let's go, let's go early and come back early."

The two gradually drifted away, and Lu Ci looked at the young man's back feeling very interesting, and couldn't help asking: "What's his name? How old is this year?"

Missang Yaoyue said: "This year is thirteen, called Zhong Wangyou."

Lu Ci was a little surprised: "Did you change your surname to Misang?"

People in the world have always attached great importance to surnames, and most adopters will change their children's surnames to their own. It stands to reason that a family like the Misang family will only value this festival more.

This is obviously a very simple question, but there was a slight unease on Misang Yaoyue's face, and then he said flatly: "Well, it hasn't been changed."

Lu Ci nodded. As the saying goes, every family has scriptures that are difficult to recite. Perhaps a rich family like the Misang family will consider adoption more than ordinary families. It is naturally inconvenient for an outsider to ask about this kind of family matter.However, in this way, it can be inferred that this young man should know his life experience, otherwise the surname would not be easy to explain.

"You said you want to borrow something, what are you borrowing?" Misang Yaoyue obviously didn't intend to continue chatting, and directly returned to the topic.

"Oh," Lu Ci withdrew his thoughts, "I heard that senior sister has a kind of Gu that can be used to find relatives, so we just want to borrow it."

"Searching Gu?" Misang Yaoyue frowned suspiciously, and couldn't figure out what they could use this thing for for a moment, then suddenly said, "You want to find your family?"

Lu Ci was taken aback for a moment, but she didn't expect her to come here, and quickly explained: "No, we brought the baby's skeleton from the secret place, and we want to go to Sangcheng to see if we can find his parents. .”

After finishing speaking, he laughed softly again: "I heard that the search for relatives Gu can't find a wide range. If I really want to find my family, it's useless to count on it, right?"

"That's true," Misang Yaoyue said, she just blurted out just now when she suddenly thought of this verse, but after thinking about it, she realized that it was impossible, "But why are you looking for that baby's corpse? What if you find it? ?”

Lu Ci looked back at Ji Wuzhou, and said: "Isn't the Wanling Staff able to detect the memory of the dead? We want to find his parents and see if they have seen any suspicious people before the Gu disease, by the way You can also explore the memories of the rest of the people to find clues."

Naturally, several celestial masters are aware of the fact that the staff can search for memories. After all, every amnesty ceremony is jointly supervised by the four parties, and the memories that appeared when the mirror pool "revealed the crime" were created by Ji Wuzhou and Wan Ling. The staff is obtained from the victim.

At this time, after Luci's explanation, Misang Yaoyue also reacted immediately, and then nodded without much hesitation and said: "It sounds like it is indeed feasible, I happened to raise a family-seeking Gu a few days ago , have not yet recognized the Lord, just take it and use it.”

With that said, she walked towards the exit of the garden: "Follow me."

Lu Ci didn't expect that she would agree so simply, he looked at Ji Wuzhou in a slightly surprised look, and quickly followed.

Ji Wuzhou hadn't said a word since just now, and at this moment, he just stayed behind the two of them in silence.

Walking out of the garden and stepping on the long steps, Misang Yaoyue slightly tilted her head and glanced at Ji Wuzhou from the corner of her eye, then asked Lu Ci in a low voice: "He knew your identity so quickly?"

Lu Ci smiled shyly: "I told him myself, but...he actually knew it all along."

Misang Yaoyue Nahan said: "Know it all along?"

Lu Ci nodded: "Without his help, I'm afraid I don't even know where my soul is."

Missang Yaoyue was surprised when she heard the words: "You mean, you are able to be reborn because of him?"

Lu Ci nodded again: "Yes, my rebirth is not unrelated to his return to the secret realm ten years ago, but there are still many twists and turns in this matter, I will explain it to my senior sister when I have time later."

Without waiting for Missang Yaoyue to respond, he continued: "By the way, he showed me the memories of that year yesterday, and now I can be sure that it was indeed a coincidence that he got the spirit weapon back then."

Misang Yaoyue was speechless for a while. Although she didn't know the details, she understood that Lu Ci would never make excuses for Ji Wuzhou in this matter. After all, he himself died because of the disaster in the secret realm back then. If there is even the slightest involvement in this matter, he will definitely not let it go easily.

At this time, hearing Lu Ci's tone so firm, she also realized that their deep-rooted suspicion of Ji Wuzhou these years seems to be somewhat preconceived, but this prejudice has existed for a long time, and it is not easy for her to change her attitude suddenly.

Lu Ci also knows that being frozen three feet is not a day's cold, since he just finished speaking, he has been quietly paying attention to Misang Yaoyue's reaction, and as soon as he saw her wavering, he immediately said while the iron was hot: "Speaking of it, Before I came to visit my senior sister today, I didn't even think that these two days are Wangyou's birthday, so he was the one who prepared Du Yunli."

Misang Yaoyue was quite surprised when she heard this, she involuntarily slowed down a bit, and after going up a few more steps, she suddenly stopped and turned around and said, "Is Nanqiao feeling better?"
