[Comprehensive] Tragic Character Recycle Bin

"It's absolutely impossible!" As soon as the words came out, Aunt Wei was the first to object, even forgetting the awe she had for Qiu Lao.Although the young ones had their own arrogance, they all showed fear and reluctance when they heard Qiu Lao's words, and some even put it off a little later.

The black-armored guard was also in a dilemma, and cupped his hands and said, "These children will be useful in the future, so I ask Mr. Qiu to take care of the overall situation and change the way."

"Trouble." A hazy figure stepped out of the white mist, leaning on a black wooden crutch in one hand, tall, with a slightly stooped back.Old Qiu's hair is already gray, but his face has no wrinkles, and he is well maintained. At first glance, he looks like he is only in his forties.It can be seen that Qiu Lao was extremely handsome when he was young.

Old Qiu handed the black-armored guard a white porcelain bottle, "One pill per person, if you can't hold on, take the pill and turn around."

He lowered his head and glanced around, his gaze was extremely cold, and seemed to flicker for a moment when he met Bairan, with a complicated expression. "The pill can only last for a quarter of an hour, and it can't remove all the toxins. Even if it comes out, it will cause a headache for three days, and the face will be swollen. If you are afraid, you don't have to come."

After speaking, he took another look at Bairan, turned around, and walked back step by step on crutches.

The black-armored guards held porcelain bottles, each pouring out a red pill.Seeing that the children were still young, and they all had good looks, they couldn't help showing a bit of pity.The reason why they were dressed in weird black armor, wrapped tightly, and smeared with strange ointment, wasn't it because of Qiu Lao's weird temper and ubiquitous poison?

He whispered, "Old Qiu is in a good mood today, so I just want to say a few more words. I advise you to think carefully. Although the opportunity is rare, you only have one life. Don't say that all of you newcomers will die here, those who have power The shopkeeper is in charge of affairs, and sometimes he loses his life if he disagrees with him. In the end, the one inside can't stand any blame." As he spoke, he felt sad again, the difference in status was so clear, and the fate was also very different.

Looking at the pills in their hands again, the voice was even lower, "Whether the medicine is real or not depends on Qiu Lao's mood. It's not like no one died halfway after taking the medicine."

The children were already scared, their faces turned pale after hearing these remarks, and they looked at Aunt Wei begging for help.Bai Ran was also a little scared, she only knew that Phoenix Gu likes to eat poison, but she wasn't sure if the toxin she inhaled could be eaten clean.

Aunt Wei's complexion changed again and again, finally she sighed, gritted her teeth and said, "You can decide for yourself, it's okay if you don't enter..."

In the end, only Bairan and Xiao Wu, who didn't have much sense of presence, chose to move forward.Bairan didn't know what Xiao Wu was thinking, and he didn't know if Phoenix Gu could help him.But she had a strange feeling that she would not die.

With this strange thought in mind, Bairan stood at the intersection and took a few deep breaths.The white mist shrouded his eyes, and he could only see about three steps away.She simply braced herself and rushed in with big strides, praying that she would be able to get inside before the poison took hold.

She didn't know how long she had been running, it seemed like it was only a few breaths, when she heard a shrill scream from behind, "Ah—snake! There is a snake...help me..."

Xiao Wu's voice became lower and lower, full of resentment and unwillingness.Her heart trembled, and her whole body shivered with ice cold for a moment.Breathing suddenly became difficult, as if a big hand was stuck on the neck, there was continuous pain in the chest, and there seemed to be something gnawing at the heart, which was devastated.

"Thousands of Gus bite the heart!"

Somehow such a term popped up in my mind, and I suddenly felt a sense of arrogance and disdain for no reason, Phoenix Gu is here, how can ordinary people dare to touch her?Together with this cognition, the pain disappears.

Bairan looked around in a daze, let go of his hands clutching his chest, and felt refreshed, and the altar was bright.

"Phoenix Gu, did she call you here?" At some point, Qiu Lao suddenly appeared in front of Bai Ran, silent as a ghost.His eyes were mixed with sorrow and joy, and he looked at Bairan's eyes in a daze, as if he wanted to see the shadow of others from them.

Bairan took a step back, full of vigilance, Phoenix Gu is her biggest secret.She thought she was hiding it very well, but she didn't want to be seen through by this person.

"You don't need to be afraid, come with me." The emotion was only for a moment, and in the blink of an eye, Qiulao returned to his indifferent appearance. Seeing that Bairan was still vigilant, he didn't dare to move forward, turned his back, and walked all the way, " Your phoenix Gu is not raised properly, you only feed it with blood, and you won’t be able to survive the first nirvana. If you want to die before you are 16 years old, you will be killed by the natal Gu, so don’t come.”

Bairan's heart tightened, he hesitated for a moment, and trotted over, following step by step.After walking a few steps, Qiu Lao asked again, "Do you have a name?"

"Yes, it's called Bairan... started by the city lord."

"Meet the mayor?"

"Accidentally, I only saw it once."

Old Qiu nodded, and heard him say slowly, "Bairan is my disciple, you can go back later." The voice was very soft, but it spread far and precariously, and there was a response.

Bai Ran glanced back, and there was a thick white mist behind him, covering all the familiar scenes.She didn't ask how Xiao Wu was doing with her, nor did she ask to go back to say goodbye.She knew that when Mr. Qiu said he had accepted her as his disciple, she had no interaction with Aunt Wei and the others.

A month later, Bairan gradually became familiar with the environment of the medicine nursery.Qiulao's medicinal garden covers a very large area, but not many medicinal materials are planted.Most of them are poisonous weeds suitable for the climate of the South China Sea, and there are many poisonous snakes and insects in the poisonous weeds.During the month, Bairan also met Qiulao Pharmaceutical, but the medicinal materials used were all collected from the city lord's mansion, not grown in the medicine garden.It seems that such a big place is just for raising those poisonous things.

Besides, Mr. Qiu was extremely cold and withdrawn when we first met, but getting along with him was easier than Aunt Wei and the others.Except for the fact that he was always staring into her eyes in a daze, she let her do whatever she wanted.

Every morning, Qiu Lao would silently lift Bairan up and throw it into the medicine garden, and personally select several kinds of poisonous insects for her to feed to the Phoenix Gu.Afterwards, she was asked to communicate with the Phoenix Gu, but she was not allowed to feed more blood, only a few drops a day, mixed with many poisonous weeds in a pottery urn.

In the morning, she was taught the pharmacology of herbal classics and herbal medicines, mostly focusing on poison production and detoxification.In the afternoon, he threw her a copy of the "Gu Sutra" with badly damaged writing, and asked her to learn how to raise Gu worms by herself.

Pai Kai appeared during teaching, other times Qiu Lao shut himself in the attic and didn't talk to her.Instead, after she spent more than half a month harvesting the first snake Gu, he threw her an agarwood nameplate.Just saying "hold this thing, the city lord's mansion can come and go as you like, and return before sunset", and let her go out of the medicine garden freely to play in the afternoon.

Bai Ran spent a month with Qiulao, although it was strange that he cared so much about Phoenix Gu, and he didn't know why he often looked at him in a daze, but he really recognized Qiulao as his master.Qiu Lao didn't like to go out, so she obediently undertook the tasks of fetching medicinal materials and delivering meals.

Because the food boxes used to be delivered to the intersection by black-armored guards, Qiu Lao went to get them.She still remembered Qiu Lao's expression when she carried the food box directly to the attic and put it on the table for the first time.It's very awkward, I want to be kind to her, but I'm not used to interacting with people.

Qiu Lao didn't say a word, but the next day he made a bottle of ointment for her, and only said to apply it after bathing.Bairan tried it for a few days, only to feel that the skin was extremely smooth to the touch, the color became fairer, and the skin was more resilient than before.After a long time, there is a light fragrance on the body, and the Gu insects are very well-behaved when raising Gu.Even though he was irritated by the drugs, he didn't dare to approach her and bite her.

After coming and going, Bai Ran became more and more filial to Qiu Lao, and gradually he was able to gossip.

Not to mention how the master and apprentice get along, just say that Bairan just got the right to walk freely, so he is very excited.That afternoon, he took his own scarlet snake Gu, hung the sign on his waist and went out.Looking at the scenery and people along the way, I feel novelty when I see everything.

I saw a lot of people along the way, but whether it was the guards or the well-dressed maid in charge, when they saw the nameplate on her waist, they all backed away three feet, bowed and saluted, and dared not stop her.Bairan wanted them to ask questions, but when she took one step closer, those people would take five steps back, trembling, as if she was some kind of scum.Bairan felt a little wronged, and he couldn't chase after others to ask questions, so he could only walk aimlessly by himself.

As soon as he walked, he came to an extremely magnificent and exquisite hall.There were two maids in white clothes standing at the door. Although they were equally afraid, they had the courage to stand up and stop Bai Ran.

"This place is where the city lord lives. Without the permission of the city lord, we can't let the girl in."

Bairan didn't really want to go in at first, but changed his mind when he heard this.Seeing that the maid who spoke was fair and beautiful, her voice was clear and melodious, as if she was crying, but it was not comfortable to look at her eyes.It seems disdainful, but hostile.

She was still young, and she had some inexplicable concern for the city lord, so she asked in a daze, "Then how can I meet the city lord?"

There was a look of arrogance in the woman's eyes, she looked at Bai Ran's short figure and smiled slightly, "The girl is young, you need to know that it is not appropriate to steal the owner's belongings, if you want to recommend yourself to the city lord, you should come back in a few years."

Bairan didn't know what the maid meant by self-recommendation, she was confused, she curled her mouth, frowned and said, "This card was given to me by Master, not stolen."

"Qiu Lao asked you to come?" A strange yet somewhat familiar voice suddenly sounded behind him, like gold and jade hitting each other, deep and moist, cold and firm.

The two maids leaned over to salute, saying "My lord".Bairan also knew who was coming, turned around, her black eyes were bright, and she smiled sweetly.

"Brother City Lord who came from the sky, I saw you again!"

The girl's eyes were pure and clear, and her already impressive appearance was even more natural and sincere. Even if she was not called respectfully, she would not be able to get up to criticize her.

But seeing the man holding a black scabbard sword, his brows were slightly frowned, his white jade-like face was covered with ice sand, and his face was cold and heartless.Seeing Bairan at this time, he was thoughtful, and after a long while, he slowly uttered four words.

"I've gained a lot of weight."

Then he bent down and raised his hand to pinch her bulging cheeks, the corners of his lips curled slightly, "It feels good to touch."
