Jianghu Tired Brigade

Turning around in the courtyard, he entered another room.

There are several rows of wooden shelves in this room, densely packed with drawers, and the names of medicines are engraved on them with sharp knives, just like a pharmacy.Hong Xiao casually opened several drawers, some of which still contained medicine, and some were already empty.

Yizhanghong pointed to the tables and chairs in the corner of the room, and said, "Don't move around, just sit there."

Hong Xiao pouted, but did not refute after all, and sat down on the chair obediently, crossed his hands on the table, and kept looking at the surroundings with his eyes.

There were three stoves in the hall, each with an earthen pot, but only one earthen pot was still bubbling.

Yizhanghong took two handkerchiefs from the left, folded them a few times, covered them on the crock, lifted them all up, and put them on the table.

Hong Xiao frowned slightly as he smelled the medicinal herbs.

Even through the handkerchief, the freshly boiling medicine pot is still a bit hot.When Yizhanghong retracted her hand, she rubbed her fingers together.Hong Xiao was nearby, less than an arm's length away, seeing her movement, her body tended to lean back.But Yizhanghong stretched out his hand and pinched Hong Xiao's ears accurately, and all the warmth from his fingertips was transmitted to Hong Xiao's body.

Yizhanghong said: "When the medicine cools down, drink this bowl."

Hong Xiao lacked interest, stood up, walked a few steps casually, and moved a little further away from the crock.She was standing next to the stove on the left, there was no fire in the stove, and the crock was opened, but there were still some medicine residues, soaked in gray-brown water, exuding bursts of bitterness.

Hong Xiao frowned at the smell of medicine, looked at Yizhanghong, and asked, "Why hasn't this jar been washed?"

Yizhanghong put the bowl on the table, held the medicine pot and tilted it slightly, and the soup and medicine inside fell down.

"No one will use it in the future, so it's okay to keep it there."

Hong Xiao only felt that the meaning of her words was unclear, so he opened the earthen jar again to see the remaining medicinal herbs inside.Suddenly Yizhanghong called out: "Come here."

The voice is not loud, and the tone is calm.But the voice was more gloomy than usual, revealing an undeniable majesty.

Hong Xiao raised his head in surprise, and saw that woman lowered her eyebrows and slowly poured out the medicine, just now she made a low call, as if she had never heard of it before.

She covered the earthen pot, rubbed the smell of the medicine with her fingertips, brought it to her nose, and could still smell the astringent smell, so she couldn't help frowning.

The bowl was eight minutes full, and the falling water stopped abruptly.Yizhanghong put the earthen pot on the corner of the table, wiped his hands with a handkerchief, and said, "Go to another place to play, the medicine in there has just been cured not long ago, and it still has some effect."

Hong Xiao frowned slightly, and stretched out his fingertips towards the medicine jar: "What's in here."

Yizhanghong flicked the hem of her skirt, and sat down elegantly: "It's a hallucinogenic drug."

Hong Xiao's heart skipped a beat, and his uneasiness rose: "What are the effects of hallucinations...?"

Su Bai's fingers circled around the edge of the bowl, and Yi Zhanghong said calmly: "It makes people unconscious in a dream."

As if something exploded in his mind, Hong Xiao put away his smiling face, strode forward, put one hand on the red shoulder, and asked in a deep voice: "What about me? Is what I saw true or false? Is what I saw of you a dream again?"

Yizhanghong put his elbows on his chin, bent his eyes, and said with a half-smile, "I am myself. I don't necessarily know if what you see is true or not."

Hong Xiao circulated his inner breath, his complexion turned pale for a while, and he spat out a mouthful of blood.

Yizhanghong changed color, sat up straight, grabbed Hong Xiao's wrist with one hand, pushed away her sleeve, put her fingers on her veins, and reprimanded: "You are so stupid."

The palm on the arm was soft and tender, and there were bloodstains on the corner of Hong Xiao's mouth, and there was pain everywhere in her body, but she couldn't help laughing: "It doesn't look like a fake."

Yizhang Hong gave her cold eyes, but Hong Xiao was cheerful, feeling that the woman in front of her looked good-looking from both sides.It's just that she was still worried about Yizhanghong's phantom medicine, and asked, "What are you doing with this broken medicine?"

The palms between the wrists were suddenly closed, and the force came suddenly, Hong Xiao couldn't help but groaned in pain.

"I didn't boil these two cans of medicine."

The strength between the wrists was slightly loose, and Hong Xiao covered the palm of the wrist with his backhand, clasping it in the palm of his hand: "Is it lovesickness?"

"Ah."

"What does she want this medicine for?"

"Take this medicine and sleep well overnight. If you can't get what you want, it's good to think about it in your dreams."

Thinking about Acacia's obedient appearance, Hong Xiao couldn't help but feel a little shy, and said in a low voice, "Because of me?"

Yizhang Hong's eyes flickered, and he said, "Could it be because of someone else? I sent you a good disciple, and when I came back, it seemed like a different person."

Hong Xiao was taken aback, and her guilt grew stronger: "Where did she go now?"

Yizhanghong said: "I sent her down the mountain to live for a while, the medicine on the mountain is running short, and the food is not enough. I can't grow land now, so I can only rely on her to bring something up."

She spoke in an ordinary way, and Hong Xiao secretly had some guesses, so he asked: "Is there any special medicinal material in the prescription of the phantom medicine?"

Yizhanghong raised his eyes, his eyes swept over the medicine shelf one by one, and said calmly: "They are all common medicinal materials, but there is one herb. Because it is hard to find, I ordered the shopkeeper of the medicine shop to keep all of them. It was delivered once every six months, and I bought it at three times the price."

Hong Xiao also knew that Yizhanghong didn't have much restraint on his disciples, but this sending Acacia down the mountain was precisely to stop Acacia from taking the illusory medicine.But she suddenly had a thought, and said in shock: "Businessmen are after profit, if Xiangsi buys it at a higher price, wouldn't the shopkeeper still want to sell her the medicine?"

Yizhanghong said in a low voice: "The shopkeeper just delivered the medicine two days ago, and there is no stock in his place."

Only then did Hong Xiao heave a sigh of relief.

Yizhanghong looked at her, his eyes were bright and dark, obscure and difficult to understand.

Seeing her like this, Hong Xiao felt as if he had been cut by a knife and an axe in his heart, the pain was severe, but somehow he was able to pull the corner of his mouth, held the catkin, and said with a smile: "The medicine, is it cold?"

Yizhanghong raised his eyebrows, the darkness in his eyes seemed to be melted away by the sun, or perhaps hidden.She covered the corners of her lips with the back of her hand and coughed a few times.

The tip of her nose touched Hong Xiao's fingertips, and the breath she exhaled was quick and warm.The breath seemed to rush straight to the heart from the fingertips, and it made the heart itch.

"Come, drink the medicine." After coughing lightly, her cheeks were flushed, her voice was a little hoarse, but it didn't seem hoarse, on the contrary, it was a bit ambiguous, making her more seductive.

Hong Xiao was fascinated by the sight, the scenery in front of her eyes was so beautiful that she still seemed to be in a dream, and she easily fell into a demon.Bending over, leaning down, leaning close to Yizhanghong's ear, he said in a low voice, "Is there any candied fruit?"

The faces of the two people were intertwined and pressed against each other, so Yizhanghong's chuckle fell on the side of the ear, which was very clear: "Want to eat?" The warm breath hit the pinna, making the whole ear tremble. The itchy, light ending sound is like a thin rope, hooking people to lose their minds, and only want to get closer.

A soft object was attached to the earlobe, Hong Xiao trembled all over, and her feet also went limp.

As if she couldn't stand anymore, the hand leaning against the table was still clutching the red palm, which she couldn't bear to take back.The free hand scratched at the empty space for a long time, and finally supported weakly on Yizhanghong's knee.

"No."

A basin of cold water poured down her head, but Hong Xiao seemed to be on fire now, before the little bit of cold water touched her skin, it was completely scorched dry by the flames surrounding her.

The temperature is finally not so scorching.

It's just that the red lips are still attached to her ears, the temperature has never faded, and there is even a faint tendency to start a prairie fire.

"Why, you're so scared that you can't stand?" Yizhanghong laughed jokingly.

Hong Xiao was a little annoyed, bent his legs, twisted his waist... and sat down on the red legs.She was still blushing, but she slightly raised her head and said with a smile: "I've been standing for a long time, my legs are a little weak... That's all."

"The bones of the body are so weak, it should really be nourishing." Yizhanghong smiled, put a hand on the slender waist, and pulled her closer: "Come on, drink this medicine."

The hands around the waist were a little itchy, Hong Xiao twisted his body and changed to a more comfortable position.Only then calmly glanced at the dark brown concoction: "I don't want it."

She sticks to the bottom line of half a bowl of bitter medicine and a candied fruit, rather than give up.

It's rare for the sneaky thief who Su Ai put oil on his feet to be so stubborn.

Tao Hua'er's eyes sparkled, flickering, and turned a thousand times: "Then I feed you?"

The firm look instantly shattered into pieces like a bright moon in the water.

Don't think that this... just... seems to be not bad.

This ray of autumn wind has wrinkled a pool of autumn water, and the endless light of the water dazzles people, let alone thinking.

I don't know when Yizhanghong let go of her hand, took the medicine bowl, and brought it to Hong Xiao's lips.

The bitter taste came into his mouth from between his lips, Hong Xiao looked at the face reflected on the medicine soup, and turned the corner of his mouth.

What kind of medicine is this.

Anyway, take a small spoon and pass it one spoon at a time.

A spoonful of bitter medicine, a spoonful of candied fruit.

The shattered persistence has been repaired and erected again.

Hong Xiao had a resolute look on his face, and his eyes met Yizhanghong with clear eyes.

Gritting his teeth, he kept his mouth shut.

Yizhanghong finally saw her awkwardness, removed the medicine bowl, and asked, "What are you doing?"

Hong Xiao sipped the medicinal juice on his lips, and raised his thoughts more and more firmly.

Yizhanghong glanced at her faintly, her smile became softer and softer: "Don't even think about it."

Although she was smiling, the knife hidden in the joke was unambiguous.

Hong Xiao's expression was depressed, seeing that the medicine bowl was approached again, he bit the rim of the bowl fiercely with his lips, as fierce as biting a piece of red.

The bitter medicine rushed into his mouth, Hong Xiao's complexion was like a medicine, and he was in a ball of bitterness.

After drinking most of it, he looked like he was dying, and the concoction slid down the corner of his mouth.

Yizhanghong didn't force herself, she put the remaining half bowl of medicine on the table, took her own handkerchief and wiped the corners of Hong Xiao's mouth.Unexpectedly, Hong Xiao grabbed his hand and bit the handkerchief with tears in his eyes, as if he had suffered all kinds of grievances.

Yizhanghong looked at her acting like this, and said with a smile: "Are you also so delicate when facing Acacia?"

Hong Xiao blushed a little. How could she make jokes like this when facing others, she straightened her face and said: "Before the younger generation, naturally I have to grit my teeth and regard death as home."

Yizhanghong bent her finger, knocked on her forehead, and said, "In front of me, are you being so shameless?"

Hong Xiao also grabbed her other hand, gritted his teeth and said, "Xiangsi treats me, I'm not as fierce as you."

Yizhanghong wrapped her arms around her waist, and Hong Xiao lost her internal strength. Compared with the powerless girl in the boudoir, Hong Xiao's strength was not much better. How could Yizhanghong's movements be hindered.Yizhanghong's arm was pressed against her waist, itching, she leaned in and got closer to Yizhanghong's voice: "Acacia is so good, why don't you keep her by your side?"

The two are so close to each other, Hong Xiao suddenly remembered that when she was young, Yizhanghong also sat on her lap with her arms around her like this. Zhang Hong was struggling in his arms, and at that time, the master was watching from the side, and did not help.Yizhanghong did the same, leaned into her ear, and said with a joking smile: "Did you have a sore, you can't sit still?"

At that time, she hadn't learned how to refute people sharply, her face was flushed, and she couldn't say a word.
