Xi Jiu Er nodded her head, although she still did not know the identity of this Daoist man who disguised himself as a beggar, but just by looking at how this man handed over the hundred year old mysterious book to him, he could tell that this man was not his enemy.
"Take this book. I know that you are a person who has gone through a lot of hardships, but I also know that you are cold and distant, and I will not make any mistakes in this book. I will give this book to you, and let this poor man finally fulfill her promise to her. Did you find her such a talented disciple?"
old beggar stroked his half-white beard, and leisurely played around with it. Like a firecracker, he spat a few times, flicked his sleeves, and left.
Xi Jiu Er looked at the Taoist who had disappeared from his sight, and the look of shock disappeared from his face. In his mind, there was only this unique book that he exchanged for a meal, as well as the relationship between the old Taoist and Mu Rong. Only then did he refer to the "her", could he be referring to the Poison Saint Ruler that had been gone for many years? If so, could that Daoist man have a thousand years of longevity? How was that different from a deity?
"Old man", Xi Jiu Er finally cleared her mind, got up and ran out, rushing out of the tavern door, only seeing the strange faces on the street, not seeing the old Daoist at all.
Xi Jiu Er had caught the waiter just now, and carefully asked him if he saw that shabby looking old beggar. After finding out that the other party definitely had not seen him again, he was even more sure in his heart that he got lucky today, and actually met a deity that could only be met by luck and not sought.
For the next seven days, Xi Jiu Er stayed in her room to study the mysterious book that fell from the sky.
Today, Liu Shui strolled around the streets for another day, and bought a portion of all the delicacies in Dreamy Cloud City and stuffed it into his stomach. Seeing that the sun was about to set, he jumped back into the tavern with cheerful footsteps.
Pushing open the door, Liu Shui saw his own Miss sitting in front of the window, his head bowed and writing quickly.
In the past few days, aside from eating time, he spent most of his time on chewing the contents of the book.
How could a lonely little gongzi stretch his body quickly if he did not eat three meals properly? Liu Shui believed himself to be the most important person by her side, and as his right-hand man, Liu Shui had no choice but to watch her eat breakfast in the morning before leaving her room to leave behind a quiet environment to read in. When it was time for lunch, he hurriedly rushed back to accompany her to eat lunch.
After receiving the ultimate skill to lose weight from this, Liu Shui was especially attentive to her Miss's three meals. It was unknown if the three meals had appeared on time, and they would even appear right in front of Xi Jiu Er's bed during midnight snack time.
After a few days, Xi Jiu Er finally had a perfect plan. She believed herself to have ninety percent confidence in being able to use Yuan Yu's blood to remove the parasite.
Since the other party possessed exceptional talent and was arrogant and conceited, why not just make the best of it?
Today, Xi Jiu Er was in a particularly good mood, and the cold smile on her lips was slightly dyed with warmth.
Xi Jiu Er gave Liu Shui a few taels of silver and sent her to find something to eat.
"Greetings, Mr. Xuan", when the guards outside the living quarters saw Xi Jiu Er, they all had some admiration for this handsome and mysterious young master who had pulled the Wei Guogong back to the brink of life and death several times.
Xi Jiu Er had been in and out of the army camp frequently during this period of time. She made a familiar face in front of all the soldiers and obtained Shi Chen Wen's special permission to follow him in and out of the military camp.
"Mn." Xi Jiu Er lightly nodded, passed by the two young soldiers and walked into the camp.
The soldiers walking past her all looked at her with sparkling eyes before they respectfully greeted her, "Greetings, Mister Xuan."
Xi Jiu Er nodded her head, not changing the coldness on her face, she walked alone with a familiar face to the main camp.
In the past few days, although Xi Jiu Er had mostly been cooped up in her room studying the poison spectrum, the matters within the army had still caught her attention. In the middle of it all, when Wei Guogong woke up, she immediately saw Xi Jiu Er, who had been waiting for a long time.
Ever since that day, Wei Guogong had not woken up. The patient on the bed was breathing evenly, and his face was slightly flushed. The previous aura of the Voodoo Gu that had filled his body was all concentrated in his dantian.
All the poisonous gas in the beast's dantian would stay there for three to four days, and the Gu King would wake up and then devour its owner before leaving the dantian.
The situation before her was already such that she could not continue to look left and right. If she did not begin to implement the plan, her grandfather would at most last three or four days of life, and once the three or four days passed, even if Wei Guogong was worried about his life, the hundreds of thousands of soldiers in the army would also be burnt.
Xi Jiu Er exhorted the Military Doctor once again, and then passed the Holy Medicinal Herbs she brought with him to him, then turned and left the camp.
Xi Jiu Er rushed back to the inn and immediately changed into the red robe from last time. This time, she directly took off the mask on her face and took off the other one.
Since the other party knew of his true identity, there was no need for him to continue hiding it. In this life-and-death game, why would he be afraid of such a shamelessness?
Looking at that picturesque and elegant face in the mirror, Xi Jiu Er felt a moment of absent-mindedness. It was as if she could once again see that peerless man whispering in her ear.
The most painful thing in the world was to be entangled in reality and memory, lingering on, yet unable to look back.
After the time it takes to drink a cup of tea, Xi Jiu Er finally struggled out of her memories. She inadvertently glanced at the woman in the mirror and saw that her face was actually covered in water.
The uncontrollable emotions caused the memories in the depths of Xi Jiu Er's mind to suddenly surge open, flooding towards her like a flood.
Until the lanterns were lit, the door creaked open as someone pushed it open from the outside. The person who was expected to enter walked in happily, "Miss, what are you doing?"
Liu Shui doubtfully stood behind Xi Jiu Er, he stared at the blurry mirror, unable to see the emotions of the person in the mirror, but he was actually attracted attention by her flaunting red peony clothes.
In the middle of the night, his own Miss, who was dressed in a scarlet red shirt, was sitting in front of a mirror without saying a word.
Liu Shui thought this wouldn't be a big deal, but the half string of mutton skewers he was holding fell onto the ground with a "pa" sound.
"Liu Shui, I'm going out soon. Stay in the tavern and don't go anywhere, and don't follow me either," Xi Jiu Er said with a long sigh, her voice turning cold.
