Looking at the glittering and translucent thing, mu Zhihuan thought of the cave.
But she didn't answer in a hurry. She just narrowed her eyes, looked at the child and said, "I said you're so brave. You dare not say you stole our things and have the face to question me. I haven't even said to report to the official and arrest people."
But the child was not deterred by mu Zhihuan's words at all. He just looked at Gu Mingxuan and asked the origin of the jade pendant on his hand.
Mu Zhihuan saw that he was so stubborn and helpless. She was so big that she couldn't argue with children, so she glanced: "we found it in a very remote place. Where did we come from and how did we pick it up? I don't think this is a good place to talk."
The boy frowned, "did you pick it up?"
Mu Zhi Huan nodded: "yes."
After staring at mu Zhihuan for a long time, she found that she didn't seem to be lying to herself. The boy frowned tightly and spoke after a long time:
"I just heard that you said you were going to have dinner now. I'll go with you. I want to know about this jade pendant."
Mu Zhihuan looked at the boy and was angry. Why is this girl's face so big?
Not only to question yourself, but also to eat with yourself now?
However, seeing the child's stubborn appearance, mu Zhihuan nodded helplessly: "OK, let's go."
On the way, the child has been playing with the jade pendant on his hand, looking worried.
Mu Zhihuan and Gu Mingxuan looked at each other and guessed about the child's identity.
Qinghe was a little worried. She quietly took mu Zhihuan to one side: "well... The child's origin is unknown and stole the prince's money bag... Let's invite him to dinner so generously?"
"Then what else? A child can't be rough with him, can he?"
Mu Zhihuan felt that the child had something. If he could ask for some information about the man in the cave, the meal would not be for nothing.
Soon several people arrived at the "first floor". Qinghe was an old acquaintance. He almost didn't even order the dishes. The boss knew what to give. Therefore, before serving the dishes, mu Zhihuan questioned the child.
"Do you recognize this jade pendant?"
The child nodded: "this jade pendant... That man never leaves his body. Where on earth did you find it?"
Mu Zhihuan casually broke the reason why she fell into the cave. When climbing the mountain, she accidentally stepped empty and fell into Yuge's cave. Then she saw a stone chamber with signs of human activity. She found it inadvertently when finding the way.
The child looked at mu Zhihuan nervously and asked anxiously, "where is the... Cave?"
Mu Zhihuan didn't answer in a hurry. Instead, he asked his doubts: "you have to tell me who you are and what's going on with this jade pendant first, so I can tell you that courtesy is reciprocal. You can't want to set the White Wolf empty handed?"
When the child heard mu Zhihuan say so, he pouted at that time, but soon sighed: "this jade pendant belongs to my master. We have always lived in the mountains near the capital. We usually sell medicine for a living. One day... The master said we would go up the mountain to collect medicine, and then go for a long time."
Mu Zhihuan looked at the child: "how long ago was that...?"
The child frowned: "at least more than half a year."
Mu Zhi's heart sank for more than half a year? "That's been a long time."
The child nodded with grievances in his eyes: "I found many places on the mountain, but I couldn't find it. Where did you find it?"
Mu Zhihuan saw that the child's eyes were red. When he was about to say where he found the jade pendant, Gu Mingxuan opened his mouth: "you haven't said who your master is and what he does. How can a drug seller near the capital have such a good jade pendant?"
Then Gu Mingxuan paused: "and... The dragon on your jade pendant, you know, those who dare to make jade carvings with dragons in DAYEN are respected pharmacists in addition to the royal family."
Gu Mingxuan's words successfully changed the face of the child opposite.
In an instant, his miserable little face turned white. He pursed his lips and looked at Gu Mingxuan with his dark eyes. After a long time, he finally sighed and said:
"In fact... I don't quite understand what Shifu does. I only know that his pharmacology is not comparable to that of ordinary people, but... Those things are medicine... I feel more like poison."
Mu Zhihuan was surprised: "poison?"
The child nodded: "well"
"Although we live in the mountains, we can't see a bird or beast within two miles around our cabin. There are almost no insects. I once asked my master. He just said he used medicine to keep those insects and birds away from our cabin."
Then the child took a deep breath: "it's nothing. Our main purpose of going up the mountain every day is to catch some strange looking insects, which are bright and poisonous at first sight, in addition to picking medicine."
"My master often grabs it with his bare hands. In his words, he often grabs it. He can know his propriety and won't be bitten, but I clearly saw him bitten by a poisonous centipede."
"After that, he not only didn't apply medicine, but also carefully collected the blood bitten by the centipede and fed it to another insect I didn't know. As a result, the insect changed color the next day..."
Mu Zhihuan heard a burst of scalp numbness. It was like practicing medicine. It was poison at all.
"Well... Since your master is so frightening, what else do you want him to do?"
When the child was asked, his expression was so stiff for a moment, but he soon returned to normal. He said with a sad face:
"Shifu is a man who raised me to such a big age. I'm naturally worried when I'm gone. Although he sometimes behaves strangely, he hasn't hurt me. I want to know if he's doing well."
Mu Zhi cheered. After all, she is a child. It is inevitable to rely on adults who have been with her all the time.
She turned around and looked at Gu Mingxuan. Gu Mingxuan picked up the tip of his eyebrow: "this jade pendant was found on a cliff outside the capital."
After that, Gu Mingxuan said, "but don't be busy with surprises. When we went, the cave on the cliff was empty, and it seems that the empty time is not short... So no one knows what happened to your master now."
As soon as the child heard this, his face sank: "well... What do you mean?"
