Celebrating the Year of the Fish: A Princess is Not a Concubine[GL]
Chapter 141[141]
[one four one]
Things went surprisingly smoothly. Zhou Jinyu led the people from the yamen into the mountain, and indeed found many herbs growing on the mountain. Zhou Jinyu gave an order, and his subordinates started to move. When they came, each of them carried a bamboo The basket, after picking the herbs, put them in and put them away.
Zhou Jinyu actually regretted that he didn't learn pharmacology from Master Kongzhi.
She obviously had the best master in the world, but she failed to seize the opportunity.
Zhou Jinyu has been in Qianlong Temple for many years, learning martial arts and chanting scriptures from Master Kongzhi, but in fact he spent most of the time making jokes. Master Kongzhi is a master of medicine in the world, and the knowledge in his head is impossible for others to learn.
But Zhou Jinyu has been slack in Qianlong Temple these years, and she hasn't even learned a little bit about Master Kongzhi. Otherwise, there is a plague in Yong'an County this time, and she wouldn't be able to write a letter overnight to send rescuers. .
Zhou Jinyu carried a small bamboo basket on her back and took the lead. While picking herbs, she looked in the direction of the back mountain. She remembered that she hid the jade seal of the Northern Zhou Dynasty under a big tree, yes, but she searched around. It turned out to be nothing.
Not far away, Changsun Sheng's soldiers were also looking for it. Although Zhou Jinyu didn't understand what the jade seal from the Northern Zhou Dynasty was useful to Changsun Sheng, she always felt that she must not hand over the jade seal and would rather bring it back. The capital was destroyed in a safe place, and it could not be handed over.
Obviously, Changsun Sheng's people haven't been found yet, otherwise they would have already left.
Zhou Jinyu walked forward step by step with a bamboo basket on his back, and suddenly saw a tree half as thick as a man.On the tree was the mark she made, and there were some weeds piled up under the tree as a cover. Zhou Jinyu pretended to bend down to find herbs, stretched out his hand, and picked up the pile of weeds, and saw a tree hole.
Seeing that no one was paying attention to her, she immediately took out the jade seal from the tree hole, put it in the basket behind her, covered it with herbs, and hid it well.
After she found it, she immediately returned to the crowd.
Those soldiers were still searching, but they were doomed to return in vain.
When the sun was about to set, the medicinal herbs were almost collected, and Zhou Jinyu ordered to go back.
All the way back to the county government office, Zhou Jinyu invited Monk Mingran to count the amount of herbs, and then ordered his men to go to the nearby pharmacy to get the medicine according to Monk Mingran's prescription.
The monk understood: "Little brother, you have done a great deed. You can control the epidemic before it spreads, and the common people don't have to die in vain."
Zhou Jinyu scratched her head. Although she was only doing what she was supposed to do, it was rare for her to hear a big brother praise someone, and she felt a little elated.
After the dispatched people brought the rest of the herbal medicines from the county Chinese pharmacy, the monk Yao Ming taught them how to prepare the medicine, how much medicine should be put in, and then wrapped it up with oiled paper. Not daring to slack off, he stayed up all night to prepare the medicine according to the monk's instructions, and the next day, he sent it to the people door to door.
Later, due to the limited manpower, the door-to-door deliveries were really not available, so Zhou Jinyu directly posted a notice asking people from every household to come to the county government office to pick them up.
Once the notice was sent out, the villagers who saw the notice rushed to tell each other, and it was spread from ten to ten, and almost all the people in the county knew that the imperial envoy from the capital, in order to cure the plague for the villagers, did not accept money at the gate of the yamen. Dispensing medicine.
Zhou Jinyu set up a tent at the gate of the yamen. Seeing the notice, the people who came to get the medicine were all crowded at the gate of the yamen, and the yamen servants were maintaining order.
Zhou Jinyu personally stood in front of the yamen gate, handed a pack of medicine to an old man in front of him, and said with a smile: "Uncle, you take this medicine back, and after cooking it, drink it four times a day. Do you remember?" ?”
The uncle smiled and nodded, thanking you a lot: "Thank you, Imperial Envoy, you are a good person, Imperial Envoy!"
As soon as these words came out, all the people who came to receive the medicine knelt down, and they all shouted loudly: Thank you, Mr. Imperial Envoy, thank you, Mr. Imperial Envoy!
Of course, some people in the queue at the back asked: "In case there is no illness in the family, do you not need to collect it?"
Another person immediately said: "How do you know if your family members are sick? If you do, you can tell with your own eyes?"
The man choked.
"Master Imperial Envoy has good intentions, whether you are sick or not, go back and boil the medicine, even if you are not sick, you can drink it for peace of mind."
The man still couldn't believe it: "But..."
"Don't be a butt, if you talk nonsense, you will lose your life. I heard that this disease is very contagious!"
"Ah!" The man didn't hesitate anymore, and began to squeeze forward desperately, shouting: "Give me a pack, give me, give me a pack!"
Seeing that the crowd suddenly became chaotic again, Zhou Jinyu signaled the yamen servants to maintain order, and said to everyone: "Folks, please be safe and don't be impatient. Everyone has something. Don't worry, everyone has a share."
Behind the crowd, there was a young man in white wearing a bamboo hat, followed by a young man in green, watching everything in front of him.
The young man in Tsing Yi asked: "Master, are you relieved now? The son-in-law is fine here, you don't have to worry at all."
Wei Huanian looked at the young man standing at the gate of the yamen. At this moment, facing the sunlight, the young man picked up a pack of herbs and handed it to an old woman.
The corners of the young man's eyes were full of smiles, as if there was a layer of golden light on his body, which was dazzling.
"Master, shall we go back to the capital?" the young man in Tsing Yi asked.
The young man in white didn't take his eyes off the man at the gate of the yamen for a moment, he just said: "Wait a little longer."
The young man in Tsing Yi didn't understand: "Master, what are you still worried about?"
The boy in white didn't say a word, and the boy in green didn't try to persuade him any more, after all, the master had already said so, and it was useless for her to say anything more.
After a busy day, Zhou Jinyu finally sent away the people who came to get the medicine.
Today, when distributing the medicine, she listened to the monk's words. In order to prevent the infection of the plague, the monk made a mask for everyone, boiled the mask with medicine, and said that even if the people caught the plague, they don't have to worry.
Zhou Jinyu hurriedly asked Liu Mu to distribute it to the people in the yamen one by one, but this mask worked well, but it was not airtight. Zhou Jinyu wore that mask and didn't dare to take it off for a whole day. Take a breath and let your breath flow.
After it was over, she took off her mask and went into the outer hall. Looking at the people who had also been busy all day today, she ordered the kitchen to prepare for dinner.
Everyone was also starving. At first, because she was an imperial envoy, she didn't dare to let go of the food. It wasn't until Zhou Jinyu personally toasted them with a glass of wine that they became more active and even talked more.
After a simple dinner, Zhou Jinyu said that the distribution of this medicine may take a few days tomorrow. After getting along with each other for the past few days, everyone admired the imperial envoy very much. Without saying a word, they all agreed up.
After three days, all the villagers in the counties had received almost all the medicines. Even if some of them did not come, the village chiefs of the villages would take them back on their behalf. In this way, the plague was considered to be under control.
What everyone didn't expect was that Zhou Jinyu suddenly fell ill at night.
Also fell ill, and Zhang Lu.
Liu Mu hastily invited Monk Mingran to show them. Who knew that Monk Mingran gave the pulse of Zhang Lu, who was still in a coma, and said with a very bad expression: "He also got the plague."
As soon as these words came out, Liu Mu was startled. Zhang Lu also suffered from the plague?
He hurriedly said: "Master, you can go and show my fourth master again."
Monk Liao Ran nodded, and went to Zhou Jinyu's room again. After taking Zhou Jinyu's pulse, his expression became even colder.
Liu Mu asked: "Master, how is it?"
Clearly said: "She also suffered from the plague."
Liu Mu panicked now: "Impossible, right? Who infected him, master, didn't you say that wearing your mask soaked in medicine will not cause problems? Why is fourth master sick now? "
Liao Ran shook his head: "Judging from Zhang Lu's pulse, he has not been ill for a day or two, he has been infected with the plague a few days ago, no wonder I saw him the day before yesterday, and felt that his face was a little strange, It’s just that I didn’t think too much about it at the time. Now, I’m afraid that my junior brother has also been implicated by him.”
Liu Mu hurriedly ordered: "You guys, go and boil some medicine! Go!"
The servants responded and left.
After half an hour, the medicine in the kitchen was ready, and the little maid brought it up and served the two patients to drink it.
Half a day later, the fever on Zhang Lu's body had begun to subside, but Zhou Jinyu did not feel better.
The forehead was hot, and the monk knew her pulse, frowned, and said to himself: "How is it possible? This is impossible."
Liu Mu asked: "Master, what's going on? Why are you still so hot?"
Monk Liao Ran said: "I don't know what's going on for now, I need to go back to Beijing to ask Master for advice."
Liu Mu quit now, if he went back to the capital at this time, he would hurry up alone, it would take several days to go back and forth, even if he could wait, the son-in-law could not.
But there was nothing he could do about it, he just felt that he was not good at learning, and now that Zhou Jinyu's pulse condition was disordered, and the zhenqi in her body was rushing, it was not just a problem that she was suffering from the plague.
He must rush back to the capital overnight without delay.
Not a moment can be lost.
Knowing that the monk had left, Liu Mu stood anxiously in front of Zhou Jinyu's bed. He didn't care that he was not wearing a mask at this time, and knelt down in front of Zhou Jinyu: "Fourth Master, you must be well." Come on, if you have something wrong, how should you explain it to the princess."
Dense cold sweat broke out on Zhou Jinyu's forehead, and his brows were furrowed, obviously in pain.
Liu Mu turned around and went out to fetch water from the well in the backyard. After bringing the water back to the room, Zhou Jinyu frowned, feeling more and more painful.
When he was about to go forward, he heard movement outside the door. Liu Mu put the brocade handkerchief in his hand on the edge of the copper basin casually, and asked, "Who is outside?"
With a creak, the door swung open.
I saw two figures standing outside the door, one in white and the other in green.
Liu Mu was stunned, and when he watched the man in white lift the hat on his head, Liu Mu looked at the familiar face, reacted for a while, and then tentatively called out: "Princess..."
Wei Huanian shook his head slightly, and said, "I'm going to come and see her, you should go out first."
Liu Mu nodded, then suddenly remembered something, and hurriedly said: "Princess, wait for the villain for a while, the villain will come when he goes."
Liu Mu quickly ran away, and after a while, when he came back, he was holding two white masks in his hand.
At this time, Wei Huanian was holding the white brocade handkerchief, helping Zhou Jinyu gently wipe the cold sweat off his forehead.
Liu Mu hurriedly said: "Master, Miss Wanqiu, this is made by Master Qingran with medicinal water. Covering the mouth and nose can prevent you from being infected with the plague."
Wan Qiu stepped forward to pick it up and thanked her.
Liu Mu glanced at her, and replied hastily for a while: "No...you don't have to thank me."
Wan Qiu said: "Okay, you go out quickly, our master has to take care of the son-in-law personally."
Liu Mu nodded and went out.
Wan Qiu handed one of the masks to Wei Huanian, but Wei Huanian didn't want to take it. For a moment, she was thinking that if Zhou Jinyu couldn't make it through this time, she might as well let her go.
Anyway, it's meaningless to leave her alone in this world.
Celebrating the Year of the Fish: [Second update]
Darkness, endless darkness.
Zhou Jinyu only felt as if he was completely in the darkness.
She could see nothing and hear nothing.
There was no one around her, it was a kind of loneliness for no reason, as if she was the only one left in the world, it surrounded her and made her a little scared.
In fact, Zhou Jinyu has always been a person who is afraid of being alone. When she was very young, she was actually very attached to Liu Shi.It was only after she grew up that Liu was busy doing business, so she put her aside, and then she got used to living alone.
Right now, the darkness is endless.
She wanted to escape from this darkness.
But after searching for a long time, there was no way out.
Zhou Jinyu suddenly realized that he must be in a dream again.
In an instant, the sky and the earth suddenly brightened.
The scene in front of him gradually became clearer.
Zhou Jinyu looked again, and at this time he was actually in the back mountain of Qianlong Temple.
There is a large peach forest on the back mountain, and the peach trees bear fruits all over the mountains and plains.
At this time, a person's voice suddenly sounded: "Have you thought about it?"
Zhou Jinyu took a closer look and found that this was not the old guy who taught her Kung Fu back then.
Zhou Jinyu shouted happily: "Hey, old guy, you're not dead yet!"
The old guy was still dressed in that tattered outfit, with a flagon hanging from his waist.
However, the old guy couldn't hear her voice, but looked intently at the boy in front of him.
The boy pinched his chin with his right hand, obviously unwilling.
Zhou Jinyu understood that this was the scene where the old guy imparted his internal strength a few years ago before he left.
Back then, when she was facing the wall in the back mountain and thinking about her past, she accidentally discovered that she was not the only one in the back mountain of Qianlong Temple, there was also an old guy in rags.
After the old guy found out about him, he lied at first to ask for the peach blossom wine he brewed. She didn't say much at that time, and she was very generous and gave the old guy half a jar of peach blossom wine.
The old guy suddenly became interested in her and insisted on teaching her Kung Fu.
But Zhou Jinyu didn't want to learn. She was obviously a disciple of the abbot of Qianlong Temple. The abbot had few rivals in martial arts, so she was not willing to learn, let alone this old guy in front of him.
But the old guy finished drinking his wine, suddenly became drunk, raised his fist and started hitting her.
She was punched in the head a few times, although the force was obviously enough for the old guy to stop, but she still grinned in pain.
As time passed, she had to try to avoid the old guy's fists and feet.
Different from the orthodox boxing techniques in the martial arts, every punch and every palm the old guy throws seems to be opportunistic, not following the orthodox one-on-one look at all.
In order to avoid these fists and kicks similar to hooligan fights, Zhou Jinyu used to work hard, just to save himself from being beaten the next day.
As time went by, Zhou Jinyu not only didn't get punched less, but was beaten even harder.
So she was angry, and when the old guy suddenly told her one day that he was leaving here and was going to accomplish the last thing he wished for in his life, he said that he would pass on all his inner strength to her.
Zhou Jinyu asked him, "Is it because of the girl you always told me about, your childhood sweetheart?"
The old guy told her more than once that he once had a childhood sweetheart, but he fought with someone later and lost the fight, so that childhood sweetheart married the person who defeated him.
This is actually a very common story. After all, not everyone in the world is a lover who ends up getting married.
The old guy didn't answer, just said: "I may not come back after this trip. Before I die, I need to find a successor."
Zhou Jinyu nodded: "Understood, you want me to be your successor, right?"
The old guy looked at her with a smile: "That's right, if I die, then I will completely disappear in this world, and no one will even remember me. Instead of doing this, it's better to find a successor and pass on the inner strength of my life." give her."
Zhou Jinyu shook his head: "You can find someone else, I don't want a useless internal force."
In fact, she didn't want him to die, so she rejected him.
However, the old guy did not agree, but forcibly pressed her acupuncture points.
And when he was teaching her internal strength, he suddenly discovered something was wrong, but it was already too late.
The old guy felt her pulse almost in horror, and asked, "You have been poisoned?"
Zhou Jinyu had some vague guesses about this, but he wasn't sure if his guess was right, so he just said, "Probably so."
The old guy seemed to have been deceived by something at that time, and suddenly said to Zhou Jinyu: "If you give me back this internal energy, you won't be able to live for a few days. This internal energy is for you, so it's a waste."
Zhou Jinyu asked him, "Can you still take it back?"
The old guy was stunned, obviously a little pity, and gritted his teeth in disappointment: "I can't."
Zhou Jinyu nodded: "Well, look, you can't take it back. You already gave it to me anyway, so just keep it with me. Although I don't have a few days to live, I will try to live as long as possible." God, then, I will help you find a successor. If you die, I will set up a tombstone for you, and then let the successor I selected for you kowtow in front of your grave, recognize you as a master, and then use all your internal energy give him."
The old guy agreed.
Then, he left without looking back.
Later, news came that someone broke into the palace at night, and that person was imprisoned by Emperor Tianshun, and his life and death are unknown.
At this moment, what Zhou Jinyu saw in front of her eyes was the scene where the old guy was teaching her internal strength, but...
She is now just a bystander.
Immediately afterwards, the scene in front of her suddenly changed, and the grassland that had appeared countless times in her dreams appeared before her eyes.
There was a boy on that grassland, who was running forward staggeringly with a child in his arms.
The child was held in the arms of the young man, and the pursuers behind her were about to catch up, but she was still unwilling to give up the last hope, so she desperately ran into a ruined temple.
There was a woman in the ruined temple, her back was facing the boy.
Seeing this, Zhou Jinyu was a little puzzled, why did this strange scene appear in his dream?
I saw the boy holding the child in his hand, then walked forward and said, "You promised me, you will save him, right?"
The woman with her back to the boy turned around, but couldn't see her face clearly, the man replied: "Yes."
Then, the boy gave the child in his hand to the woman in front of him.
The woman asked the boy, "Would you like to go with me?"
A trace of longing flashed in the young man's eyes, but when she heard the officers and soldiers approaching behind her, the young man shook his head: "No, I'm going back, you help me take good care of him, if possible, I will go back and find you."
The woman said, "Okay, I'll wait for you."
Who is this boy?
It is so familiar, but it feels strange.
Zhou Jinyu was dizzy for a while, the scene in front of him changed, and a fire suddenly appeared in front of him.
She knew that the fire in front of her was the fire in Niujia Village.
The fire that burned all her relatives to ashes.
She watched her relatives die one by one, but there was nothing she could do.
She felt that her family might be dying, and she heard that when a person died, the past events would appear in front of her eyes like a revolving lantern.
Now it seems that I am afraid that I am about to die.
"Princess, look quickly, what's wrong with the son-in-law!"
Wan Qiu suddenly yelled, Wei Huanian put down the brocade handkerchief in his hand, and hurried back to the bedside.
Zhou Jinyu suddenly clenched her hands into fists, as if she was fighting against something, and the sweat on her forehead immediately began to fall again.
Wei Huanian held her hand and shouted in a panic: "Consort, concubine..."
Zhou Jinyu was in more and more pain, and blood suddenly overflowed from the corner of her mouth, but the blood was not red, but black.
Wei Huanian immediately took out a silk handkerchief and wiped the corners of her mouth for her, and she instructed Wan Qiu again: "Get the carriage ready, hurry up, I want to bring my son-in-law back to Beijing."
Wan Qiu was stunned: "But, princess, my son-in-law has caught the plague."
Wei Huanian said firmly: "This is not a plague. Go back to Beijing and find Abbot Kongzhi, and you will definitely find a solution."
Wan Qiu said anxiously: "But princess, if the son-in-law looks like this, if he returns to the capital, he might not be able to wait for the capital, and he will... will..."
Wanqiu didn't dare to say any more.
Wei Huanian said coldly: "That's better than waiting to die here. She can't save all the people, but in the end she lost her life here."
Wan Qiu hurriedly said: "Yes! Yes! This servant is going to prepare the carriage!"
The carriage was soon ready, Zhou Jinyu was placed on the carriage, and Wei Huanian gently rested her head on his lap, without any expression on his face, but his movements were extremely gentle.
Wan Qiu watched from the side, and could only feel anxious, she had never seen a princess like this, so desperate, as if she had lost hope in everything in the world.
Zhou Jinyu was in the sea of flames at this time, she seemed to see those who set fire, she wanted to rush over and kill them all.
But she is still just a bystander, just a bystander, she can't do anything.
Just when she continued to move forward, the sea of flames in front of her disappeared in an instant.
She seemed to have returned to the darkness at the beginning.
And at the end of the darkness, there seems to be some light coming.
She walked forward along the light, as if she could hear someone calling her name at the end.
The chattering voice came in bursts.
The man said: "Didn't you say that you would come to me, but why did you become me to find you?"
The man said: "Why are you so dishonest? You promised me that you would come to me."
The man said, "Don't sleep, okay? Wake up, okay?"
The man said, "You said you liked me, but did it count? Did you say you wanted to be with me for the rest of your life?"
The man called her loudly: "Consort...Consort...Zhou Jinyu...Zhou Jinyu!"
Things went surprisingly smoothly. Zhou Jinyu led the people from the yamen into the mountain, and indeed found many herbs growing on the mountain. Zhou Jinyu gave an order, and his subordinates started to move. When they came, each of them carried a bamboo The basket, after picking the herbs, put them in and put them away.

Monk Liao Ran nodded, and went to Zhou Jinyu's room again. After taking Zhou Jinyu's pulse, his expression became even colder.
Liu Mu asked: "Master, how is it?"
Clearly said: "She also suffered from the plague."
Liu Mu panicked now: "Impossible, right? Who infected him, master, didn't you say that wearing your mask soaked in medicine will not cause problems? Why is fourth master sick now? "
Liao Ran shook his head: "Judging from Zhang Lu's pulse, he has not been ill for a day or two, he has been infected with the plague a few days ago, no wonder I saw him the day before yesterday, and felt that his face was a little strange, It’s just that I didn’t think too much about it at the time. Now, I’m afraid that my junior brother has also been implicated by him.”
Liu Mu hurriedly ordered: "You guys, go and boil some medicine! Go!"
The servants responded and left.
After half an hour, the medicine in the kitchen was ready, and the little maid brought it up and served the two patients to drink it.
Half a day later, the fever on Zhang Lu's body had begun to subside, but Zhou Jinyu did not feel better.
The forehead was hot, and the monk knew her pulse, frowned, and said to himself: "How is it possible? This is impossible."
Liu Mu asked: "Master, what's going on? Why are you still so hot?"
Monk Liao Ran said: "I don't know what's going on for now, I need to go back to Beijing to ask Master for advice."
Liu Mu quit now, if he went back to the capital at this time, he would hurry up alone, it would take several days to go back and forth, even if he could wait, the son-in-law could not.
But there was nothing he could do about it, he just felt that he was not good at learning, and now that Zhou Jinyu's pulse condition was disordered, and the zhenqi in her body was rushing, it was not just a problem that she was suffering from the plague.
He must rush back to the capital overnight without delay.
Not a moment can be lost.
Knowing that the monk had left, Liu Mu stood anxiously in front of Zhou Jinyu's bed. He didn't care that he was not wearing a mask at this time, and knelt down in front of Zhou Jinyu: "Fourth Master, you must be well." Come on, if you have something wrong, how should you explain it to the princess."
Dense cold sweat broke out on Zhou Jinyu's forehead, and his brows were furrowed, obviously in pain.
Liu Mu turned around and went out to fetch water from the well in the backyard. After bringing the water back to the room, Zhou Jinyu frowned, feeling more and more painful.
When he was about to go forward, he heard movement outside the door. Liu Mu put the brocade handkerchief in his hand on the edge of the copper basin casually, and asked, "Who is outside?"
With a creak, the door swung open.
I saw two figures standing outside the door, one in white and the other in green.
Liu Mu was stunned, and when he watched the man in white lift the hat on his head, Liu Mu looked at the familiar face, reacted for a while, and then tentatively called out: "Princess..."
Wei Huanian shook his head slightly, and said, "I'm going to come and see her, you should go out first."
Liu Mu nodded, then suddenly remembered something, and hurriedly said: "Princess, wait for the villain for a while, the villain will come when he goes."
Liu Mu quickly ran away, and after a while, when he came back, he was holding two white masks in his hand.
At this time, Wei Huanian was holding the white brocade handkerchief, helping Zhou Jinyu gently wipe the cold sweat off his forehead.
Liu Mu hurriedly said: "Master, Miss Wanqiu, this is made by Master Qingran with medicinal water. Covering the mouth and nose can prevent you from being infected with the plague."
Wan Qiu stepped forward to pick it up and thanked her.
Liu Mu glanced at her, and replied hastily for a while: "No...you don't have to thank me."
Wan Qiu said: "Okay, you go out quickly, our master has to take care of the son-in-law personally."
Liu Mu nodded and went out.
Wan Qiu handed one of the masks to Wei Huanian, but Wei Huanian didn't want to take it. For a moment, she was thinking that if Zhou Jinyu couldn't make it through this time, she might as well let her go.
Anyway, it's meaningless to leave her alone in this world.
Celebrating the Year of the Fish: [Second update]
Darkness, endless darkness.
Zhou Jinyu only felt as if he was completely in the darkness.
She could see nothing and hear nothing.
There was no one around her, it was a kind of loneliness for no reason, as if she was the only one left in the world, it surrounded her and made her a little scared.
In fact, Zhou Jinyu has always been a person who is afraid of being alone. When she was very young, she was actually very attached to Liu Shi.It was only after she grew up that Liu was busy doing business, so she put her aside, and then she got used to living alone.
Right now, the darkness is endless.
She wanted to escape from this darkness.
But after searching for a long time, there was no way out.
Zhou Jinyu suddenly realized that he must be in a dream again.
In an instant, the sky and the earth suddenly brightened.
The scene in front of him gradually became clearer.
Zhou Jinyu looked again, and at this time he was actually in the back mountain of Qianlong Temple.
There is a large peach forest on the back mountain, and the peach trees bear fruits all over the mountains and plains.
At this time, a person's voice suddenly sounded: "Have you thought about it?"
Zhou Jinyu took a closer look and found that this was not the old guy who taught her Kung Fu back then.
Zhou Jinyu shouted happily: "Hey, old guy, you're not dead yet!"
The old guy was still dressed in that tattered outfit, with a flagon hanging from his waist.
However, the old guy couldn't hear her voice, but looked intently at the boy in front of him.
The boy pinched his chin with his right hand, obviously unwilling.
Zhou Jinyu understood that this was the scene where the old guy imparted his internal strength a few years ago before he left.
Back then, when she was facing the wall in the back mountain and thinking about her past, she accidentally discovered that she was not the only one in the back mountain of Qianlong Temple, there was also an old guy in rags.
After the old guy found out about him, he lied at first to ask for the peach blossom wine he brewed. She didn't say much at that time, and she was very generous and gave the old guy half a jar of peach blossom wine.
The old guy suddenly became interested in her and insisted on teaching her Kung Fu.
But Zhou Jinyu didn't want to learn. She was obviously a disciple of the abbot of Qianlong Temple. The abbot had few rivals in martial arts, so she was not willing to learn, let alone this old guy in front of him.
But the old guy finished drinking his wine, suddenly became drunk, raised his fist and started hitting her.
She was punched in the head a few times, although the force was obviously enough for the old guy to stop, but she still grinned in pain.
As time passed, she had to try to avoid the old guy's fists and feet.
Different from the orthodox boxing techniques in the martial arts, every punch and every palm the old guy throws seems to be opportunistic, not following the orthodox one-on-one look at all.
In order to avoid these fists and kicks similar to hooligan fights, Zhou Jinyu used to work hard, just to save himself from being beaten the next day.
As time went by, Zhou Jinyu not only didn't get punched less, but was beaten even harder.
So she was angry, and when the old guy suddenly told her one day that he was leaving here and was going to accomplish the last thing he wished for in his life, he said that he would pass on all his inner strength to her.
Zhou Jinyu asked him, "Is it because of the girl you always told me about, your childhood sweetheart?"
The old guy told her more than once that he once had a childhood sweetheart, but he fought with someone later and lost the fight, so that childhood sweetheart married the person who defeated him.
This is actually a very common story. After all, not everyone in the world is a lover who ends up getting married.
The old guy didn't answer, just said: "I may not come back after this trip. Before I die, I need to find a successor."
Zhou Jinyu nodded: "Understood, you want me to be your successor, right?"
The old guy looked at her with a smile: "That's right, if I die, then I will completely disappear in this world, and no one will even remember me. Instead of doing this, it's better to find a successor and pass on the inner strength of my life." give her."
Zhou Jinyu shook his head: "You can find someone else, I don't want a useless internal force."
In fact, she didn't want him to die, so she rejected him.
However, the old guy did not agree, but forcibly pressed her acupuncture points.
And when he was teaching her internal strength, he suddenly discovered something was wrong, but it was already too late.
The old guy felt her pulse almost in horror, and asked, "You have been poisoned?"
Zhou Jinyu had some vague guesses about this, but he wasn't sure if his guess was right, so he just said, "Probably so."
The old guy seemed to have been deceived by something at that time, and suddenly said to Zhou Jinyu: "If you give me back this internal energy, you won't be able to live for a few days. This internal energy is for you, so it's a waste."
Zhou Jinyu asked him, "Can you still take it back?"
The old guy was stunned, obviously a little pity, and gritted his teeth in disappointment: "I can't."
Zhou Jinyu nodded: "Well, look, you can't take it back. You already gave it to me anyway, so just keep it with me. Although I don't have a few days to live, I will try to live as long as possible." God, then, I will help you find a successor. If you die, I will set up a tombstone for you, and then let the successor I selected for you kowtow in front of your grave, recognize you as a master, and then use all your internal energy give him."
The old guy agreed.
Then, he left without looking back.
Later, news came that someone broke into the palace at night, and that person was imprisoned by Emperor Tianshun, and his life and death are unknown.
At this moment, what Zhou Jinyu saw in front of her eyes was the scene where the old guy was teaching her internal strength, but...
She is now just a bystander.
Immediately afterwards, the scene in front of her suddenly changed, and the grassland that had appeared countless times in her dreams appeared before her eyes.
There was a boy on that grassland, who was running forward staggeringly with a child in his arms.
The child was held in the arms of the young man, and the pursuers behind her were about to catch up, but she was still unwilling to give up the last hope, so she desperately ran into a ruined temple.
There was a woman in the ruined temple, her back was facing the boy.
Seeing this, Zhou Jinyu was a little puzzled, why did this strange scene appear in his dream?
I saw the boy holding the child in his hand, then walked forward and said, "You promised me, you will save him, right?"
The woman with her back to the boy turned around, but couldn't see her face clearly, the man replied: "Yes."
Then, the boy gave the child in his hand to the woman in front of him.
The woman asked the boy, "Would you like to go with me?"
A trace of longing flashed in the young man's eyes, but when she heard the officers and soldiers approaching behind her, the young man shook his head: "No, I'm going back, you help me take good care of him, if possible, I will go back and find you."
The woman said, "Okay, I'll wait for you."
Who is this boy?
It is so familiar, but it feels strange.
Zhou Jinyu was dizzy for a while, the scene in front of him changed, and a fire suddenly appeared in front of him.
She knew that the fire in front of her was the fire in Niujia Village.
The fire that burned all her relatives to ashes.
She watched her relatives die one by one, but there was nothing she could do.
She felt that her family might be dying, and she heard that when a person died, the past events would appear in front of her eyes like a revolving lantern.
Now it seems that I am afraid that I am about to die.
"Princess, look quickly, what's wrong with the son-in-law!"
Wan Qiu suddenly yelled, Wei Huanian put down the brocade handkerchief in his hand, and hurried back to the bedside.
Zhou Jinyu suddenly clenched her hands into fists, as if she was fighting against something, and the sweat on her forehead immediately began to fall again.
Wei Huanian held her hand and shouted in a panic: "Consort, concubine..."
Zhou Jinyu was in more and more pain, and blood suddenly overflowed from the corner of her mouth, but the blood was not red, but black.
Wei Huanian immediately took out a silk handkerchief and wiped the corners of her mouth for her, and she instructed Wan Qiu again: "Get the carriage ready, hurry up, I want to bring my son-in-law back to Beijing."
Wan Qiu was stunned: "But, princess, my son-in-law has caught the plague."
Wei Huanian said firmly: "This is not a plague. Go back to Beijing and find Abbot Kongzhi, and you will definitely find a solution."
Wan Qiu said anxiously: "But princess, if the son-in-law looks like this, if he returns to the capital, he might not be able to wait for the capital, and he will... will..."
Wanqiu didn't dare to say any more.
Wei Huanian said coldly: "That's better than waiting to die here. She can't save all the people, but in the end she lost her life here."
Wan Qiu hurriedly said: "Yes! Yes! This servant is going to prepare the carriage!"
The carriage was soon ready, Zhou Jinyu was placed on the carriage, and Wei Huanian gently rested her head on his lap, without any expression on his face, but his movements were extremely gentle.
Wan Qiu watched from the side, and could only feel anxious, she had never seen a princess like this, so desperate, as if she had lost hope in everything in the world.
Zhou Jinyu was in the sea of flames at this time, she seemed to see those who set fire, she wanted to rush over and kill them all.
But she is still just a bystander, just a bystander, she can't do anything.
Just when she continued to move forward, the sea of flames in front of her disappeared in an instant.
She seemed to have returned to the darkness at the beginning.
And at the end of the darkness, there seems to be some light coming.
She walked forward along the light, as if she could hear someone calling her name at the end.
The chattering voice came in bursts.
The man said: "Didn't you say that you would come to me, but why did you become me to find you?"
The man said: "Why are you so dishonest? You promised me that you would come to me."
The man said, "Don't sleep, okay? Wake up, okay?"
The man said, "You said you liked me, but did it count? Did you say you wanted to be with me for the rest of your life?"
The man called her loudly: "Consort...Consort...Zhou Jinyu...Zhou Jinyu!"
