Chapter 130 An Old Acquaintance

"Where are we going next?" Chang Xiaoman asked Lei Yuxiu with a yawn.She really admired Lei Yuxiu's physical fitness, and he didn't feel sleepy after running around every day.And his physical strength has reached the limit, and now he can fall asleep with a pillow.

"I will send you to a safe inn where you can rest well."

"how about you?"

"I'm going to arrange some things."

Chang Xiaoman didn't ask any more questions. At this time, her upper eyelids and lower eyelids were already fighting, and she was so sleepy that she began to cry.

After turning around in Liyang City, the two of them came to an inn.Xiaoman lay on the bed as soon as he entered the room, and met Zhou Gong in less than a minute.

Lei Yuxiu sat on the edge of the bed, looked at her and smiled, kissed her lightly on the top of her head, and left.

In the evening, Xiaoman woke up from his sleep.Only then did he recover from the exhaustion of traveling for many days.

At this time, the sound of "cuckoo" was heard outside the window.

I thought it was a wild pigeon that occasionally landed outside the window, but the pigeon never left, just stood outside the window and cooed non-stop.

Xiaoman opened the window, and the pigeon flew into the room with flapping wings and landed on the table.

She reached out and picked up the pigeon, and took the scroll from its lap.

Above is an address, and a strange symbol.

Xiao Man felt that the whole symbol had been seen somewhere.

She took out the dagger that Concubine Ju had asked Maier to hand over to her, and looked carefully, and sure enough, she found the same pattern on the dagger as on the note.

Xiao Man immediately decided whether it was a blessing or a disaster, and that it was a disaster that could not be avoided.She plucked a strand of hair from her head, rolled up the note, tied it with the strand of hair, and tied it to the veil beside the bed.This is the code she and Lei Yuxiu agreed upon.

Because Lei Yuxiu no matter what, he no longer believes that Xiaoman will not disappear suddenly again.He made an agreement with Xiaoman that if Xiaoman left voluntarily due to unavoidable reasons, he should leave a signal in this way.

Xiaoman tied the note and walked towards that address.

It was already dark outside the door.

Since she was not familiar with Li Yangcheng, she asked some children who were playing for directions.

The children all shook their heads to express their ignorance of this place.

She had to ask several roadside vendors for directions, but no one had heard of the place on the address.

Xiao Man scratched his head and stood blankly in the street market.

At this time, the shops were closed one after another, and only a pharmacy at the corner of the street was still open.

She walked to the door of the pharmacy, and was surprised to find that the potted plants in front of the pharmacy were still green in the cold winter season.The flowers between the green leaves are small and coquettish, and the bright red color is like dripping blood.Looking in from the door, under the orange light, a long vertical counter and medicine cabinet tightly cover the display behind.Behind the counter was a woman, sweeping the dust off the surface of the medicine cabinet with a feather duster.

Xiaoman walked into the pharmacy, and the woman turned her head when she heard the sound, and asked kindly, "What medicine does Miss need?"

"I don't buy medicine, I just want to ask for directions." Xiao Man told the truth.

The woman walked out of the counter and walked up to Xiao Man.

With the help of the light, Xiao Man could see her face clearly.The woman's eyebrows and eyes are smiling, her skin is as white as fat, her face is like a peach blossom, she is wearing a pink winter coat, she walks lightly like a magpie, her gestures are full of immortality, but it makes people feel very close.

"Ask for directions? Where do you want to ask?" The woman in pink asked enthusiastically without any impatience.

Xiaoman said the address.

After hearing the address, the woman didn't say she knew or didn't know, but smiled and said to her: "Please wait a moment, I'll go invite our shopkeeper."

Xiao Man was invited by the woman to sit on a chair beside her.

The woman turned around and walked to the inner room, opened the gauze curtain of the compartment, and softly called inside: "Shopkeeper, Miss Chang is here."

Xiao Man was startled, he didn't seem to have introduced himself just now, and the woman didn't ask her name, why did the woman just call out her last name.

She was a little apprehensive, but thinking that she was here, she would be at ease, and she gritted her teeth to maintain her composure.

The gauze curtain of the compartment was lifted, and a woman about seventeen or eighteen years old walked out, her appearance was ordinary, far inferior to the one next to her.But in terms of bearing, she is even a hundred times stronger than Fairy Si Han from the God Realm. It seems that she should be the shopkeeper of this medicine shop.

The shopkeeper walked up to Xiao Man, looked at her carefully, and said for no reason, "Don't come here without any problems."

"Have we met?" Xiaoman was a little surprised, and couldn't remember when and where he had met such a young lady with a fairy temperament.

The shopkeeper didn't answer her question, but just looked at her with a smile, as if looking at an old friend who had been reunited for a long time.

"You'er, go and make a pot of good tea." The shopkeeper ordered.

"Yes." The woman in pink respectfully took the order to boil water and make tea.

"Boss, I'll be sitting down soon, just to ask for directions." Xiao Man repeated the address on the note.

The shopkeeper walked to the door of the store and took a look at the moonlight outside, "No hurry, it's not even the hour yet."

"Until the hour?" Xiao Man was a little confused, "How long will it take?"

"Just enough time to drink a cup of hot tea." The shopkeeper sat opposite Xiaoman.

At this time, You'er came over with a tea tray, poured a cup at the side, and handed it to Xiaoman with both hands, "Miss Chang, your tea."

"Thank you." Xiaoman reached out to take the teacup, put it under his nose and smelled it gently, the tea smelled like sweet-scented osmanthus, and suddenly felt warm in his heart, as if he was under the sweet-scented osmanthus tree.

Xiaoman took a sip, the fragrance remained on his lips and teeth, and it penetrated into his heart and spleen.

"This tea is the best tea I've ever had." Xiao Man praised.

You'er handed tea to the shopkeeper. Hearing Xiaoman's praise, her smile grew stronger, "Your taste has not changed after so many years. This is Xingui that I specially ordered from Moon Rabbit..."

"You'er," the shopkeeper interrupted her, "I've talked too much."

You'er quickly covered her mouth and blinked apologetically, "It looks like Miss Chang hasn't had dinner yet, so I'll make you a bowl of wontons."

"No need, it's too much trouble for you..." Xiaoman couldn't resist the enthusiasm of the master and servant, and waved his hands vigorously.But at this moment, my stomach growled uncontrollably.

"It's just a bowl of wontons, what's the trouble?" With that said, You'er trotted to the back hall.

Xiao Man took a sip of tea in embarrassment, and tasted it carefully, not knowing whether it was a hint in his heart or something real, the taste of the tea seemed to be somewhat familiar.

She looked up at the shopkeeper, searched all her memories, but still had no impression of the person in front of her, "Shopkeeper, why do you and that worry girl know me?"

The shopkeeper glanced at the bracelet on Xiaoman's wrist, and sighed softly, "It's been too long, it doesn't matter if I don't remember. Seeing that you are fine now, I have nothing to worry about."

Somehow Xiaoman knew that the pharmacist in front of him must know many things that she didn't.

Thinking of this, she immediately asked, "Boss, I haven't asked for your name yet."

"You can call me Song'er."

"Song'er..." Xiaoman recalled his memory again, and was very unfamiliar with this name.

"You don't need to deliberately recall those forgotten things," Song'er comforted, "When the seal in your body is released, you will recall everything."

"You are not the first to say that there is a seal in my body, but what is this seal? How can I open it?" Xiao Man asked.

"The seal seals the enormous power you possess. The reason why these powers are sealed is because your current state is not enough to carry those powers. As for how to open the seal in your body, I don't know the specific method , but..." Song'er paused, took a sip of tea, then continued with a sigh, "It must have been a heart-wrenching process, life would be worse than death."

Seeing Song'er's expression of "don't ask me how I know", Xiaoman basically understood.

"Are you from the God Realm?" Xiao Man asked boldly.

"Why do you think I'm from the God Realm?" Song'er asked back.

"It depends on the person's temperament." Xiaoman said sincerely, "I can see that you and You'er are not mortals."

Song'er covered her face and laughed, but didn't answer her question.

You'er came out from the room with two bowls of fragrant wontons, put them in front of Xiao Man and Song'er respectively, and urged Xiao Man with a smile, "Miss Chang, try it quickly."

After taking a bite, Xiaoman couldn't help but give a thumbs up: "Definitely."

You'er beamed with joy.

"You don't make it according to my taste again, do you?"

"Of course." You'er nodded vigorously, but didn't continue talking.

When Xiaoman saw that the two of them didn't seem willing to tell her everything, they gave up asking and ate wonton seriously.

Because it is so delicious, a bowl of wontons will soon see the bottom.

Song'er stood up and looked at the moonlight outside the window, "It's time, let's go, we will take you to the place you mentioned."

"Okay. Thank you." Xiao Man also stood up.

"You and I are welcome." Song'er said gently.

Xiaoman followed Song'er out of the pharmacy, and You'er closed the pharmacy and locked the door.

At this time, a carriage came from a distance and stopped at the door of the pharmacy.

Song'er got into the carriage first, You'er let Xiaoman get on first, and she followed behind.

The coachman flicked the reins, and the carriage set off slowly.

"Where are we going?" Xiao Man asked.

"Don't be impatient, we'll be there in a while." Song'er said softly.

After an unknown amount of time, the carriage stopped steadily, You'er got out of the carriage first, and Xiao Man followed behind her.

Opening the curtain, in front of you is a courtyard gate decorated with strange patterns.

Taking advantage of the moonlight, Xiaoman observed those patterns carefully, and suddenly remembered seeing the same decorations in the Qingyun Hall of Concubine Ju in the Dapei Palace.

Several maids in national costumes bowed their heads to greet them at the door.

Looking at their attire, Xiao Man immediately understood that she also wore the same dress at Concubine Ju's place.

"Didn't the Shuo clan be wiped out by Bei Rong?" Xiao Man blurted out, and felt inappropriate after speaking.

One of the maids at the door raised her head to greet her when she heard her words: "Welcome princess."

Xiaoman looked around to make sure she was talking to herself.

"Princess, please come with me." The maid led the way, motioning for Xiao Man to follow.

Xiao Man followed and walked two steps, then looked back at Song'er.

Song'er and You'er didn't seem to want to enter together.

"Aren't you coming in?" Xiaoman asked.

"We were just entrusted by the owner of this courtyard to send you here safely." Song'er waved her hand to Xiaoman, "After today, when you think of me after the seal is lifted, come and drink tea with me. "

After finishing speaking, Song'er and You'er got into the carriage.

Seeing them leave, Xiao Man turned around and looked at the gate of the courtyard, followed the maid and walked in full of doubts.
