[Douluo Dalu] The moonlight is sultry
Chapter 74 Spices
Yueyuan and Liu Changge came to a spice shop called "Luoyanfang" in the center of the city. This shop was opened by Wei Ruoying's family. In addition to doing business, this place is also a contact center. Even if the disciples of the Luo Ying Sect are scattered all over the place, they can still send news back to the sect through various branches and stores.
The store decoration is mainly decorated with gold and purple gauze, and the resplendent wall tiles are dazzling.
"You pick first." Liu Changge was led away by one of the waiters.
Yueyuan took the token given to her by Wei Yuying and met her informant under the leadership of another receptionist.
It turns out that Luoying Sect did not participate in the competition this year because of the civil strife within the sect. It can be seen from the scrawled handwriting in Wei Xueying's reply to her that he wrote in a hurry. Wei Siming's matter has not been resolved since the young master's jade pendant was returned to Wei Xueying at the last auction. She has no qualifications and no leisure to interfere too much in the internal affairs of the Luoying Sect.
Wei Siming still doesn't know that he was actually tricked by her and Yue Lian.
If you think about it this way, the risk he took to help Wei Xueying was offset by what happened with Huo Wu... No, Wei Xueying was his friend, and Huo Wu was just an ordinary contestant. How could it be worthy of Tang San? Is she injured?
After replying to the letter, she returned to the lobby, where Liu Changge had already selected several new styles.
"Look, Yue'er, I bought this facial balm. Not only does it have good skin care effects, it also smells great when applied to my face!"
Yueyuan weighed it in her hand, smelled it carefully, and said, "Well, the main ingredients are beef bone marrow and beef fat, and it is also made with several Chinese medicines such as clove and angelica. The quality is very good."
After receiving the "good product certification", Liu Changge became even happier, and excitedly leaned into Yue Yuan's ear and whispered: "There is also a new 'charm box', which is most suitable for displaying indoors at that time. ~"
"Oh? What is that?" Yue Yuan said with a sly smile on her lips.
"Oh, you're so annoying." Liu Changge knew that she understood what he meant.
"It's obviously your typing puzzle."
"It's Yue'er who asked knowingly!"
The two of them were used to joking and would always tease each other.
At this moment, there was a noise from the counter on the side.
"I can't even identify this! Believe it or not, this prince will let your shabby shop close down tomorrow!" A man in luxurious clothes pointed at a spice taster and cursed.
Yueyuan pointed to the situation over there to the waiter beside her, and asked with her eyes what happened.
The waiter's eyes were full of helplessness, "That person has a rather special identity. He is His Highness Xue Beng from the Tiandou Empire. He is usually arrogant and domineering. I don't know why he came to Luoyanfang today."
"Avalanche?" Liu Changge looked over.
When he heard someone calling his name, Xue Beng glanced over with a look of arrogance and defiance. He has a long and narrow face and a head of dazzling reddish-brown hair.
Yue Yuan's eyes narrowed. He could notice this place from such a distance, which shows that his soul power is not low. Is the fourth prince of the Tiandou Empire, the nephew of Prince Xue, really a playboy of the royal family as the rumors say?
He seemed to recognize the full moon, stood up slowly, and walked this way.
"I know you, Shrek's student." Xue Beng picked up a sachet, which contained objects that should be spices, exuding a faint smell of ambergris. "Hey, I want to ask you, do you know this kind of fragrance?"
Yue Yuan's eyebrows were light and she looked at Xue Beng calmly, neither groveling because of his power nor angry because of his rudeness.
Whether it's a fight or a quarrel, Yue Yuan is not afraid, but once a fight breaks out, it is Luoyanfang's interests that will be lost.
She picked up the sachet unhurriedly, took a brief sniff, opened it again, took a look at it, smelled it carefully, and immediately discovered something fishy about it.
"Normally, this fragrance is a good thing."
Xue Beng frowned when he heard this and asked, "Is there anything abnormal?"
"That's right." Yue Yuan glanced at him, "Your Highness, the Fourth Prince, doesn't know the use of this spice at all?"
"Of course I don't know if it's not mine." Xue Beng snorted coldly. He glanced at Liu Changge beside Yue Yuan and frowned, "Aren't you... the woman who follows Poison Douluo?"
Liu Changge replied angrily: "Ignorant boy, I know Dugu, there is nothing to be surprised about."
"Very good! Then come with me!" Xue Beng suddenly stood up and wanted to hold Liu Changge's hand.
"Your Highness, Fourth Highness, first tell us what you want to do." Yueyuan stopped him, her eyes gradually became colder, but a smile with unknown meaning appeared on her lips, "Don't forget that there is still a relationship between your uncle, Prince Snow, and us, Shrek. Some bad memories, His Highness the Fourth was present at the time, and what he said was not very pleasant."
Xue Beng choked and turned a little blue. He was worried and had no idea that he had offended the person he was asking for help.
At this moment, the nine-section jadeite from Yueyuan's cuff suddenly came out and drew words on the counter.
Because it has been soaked in jade phosphorus snake venom for many years, the Jiujie Jadeite has now become a tool for communication between Yueyuan and Dugubo. As long as Dugubo activates the mother venom in his body, the Jiujie Jadeite will sense it and pass on the message. .
The little snake wrote crookedly, which was a signal for Dugu Bo to ask for help in an emergency.
Yuanyuan controlled the Nine-section Jadeite through her mental power and reported the location of Dugubo and the others. After a while, Dugubo appeared with a scent on his body. The smell was very similar to the ambergris Xue Beng gave her.
"Why are the Fourth Highnesses here?" Dugu Bo frowned and looked at him.
"Come to investigate something." Xue Beng hesitated, "I suspect that father..."
Dugu Bo understood, but was very vigilant to stop him from talking.
Yue Yuan and him looked at each other, and she could probably tell that what he was asking for was also about this bag of spices, and it was not convenient to discuss it in public. So she specifically asked the waiter to take them to the single room in Luoyanfang, while Xue Beng left her bodyguard outside.
Inside the house, Dugu Bo opened his realm to isolate the room to prevent outsiders from eavesdropping on their conversation.
"The matter of Emperor Xue Ye should not be made public. The manipulator behind the scenes must be familiar with the palace. Being too nervous will only alert the snake." Dugu Bo told Yue Yuan that the purpose of looking for her was precisely because of Emperor Xue Ye's unusual coma, and he was in Xue Ye. Multiple mixed poisons were found in the emperor's body, and some of the poisons were probably planted by the ambergris in the palace, but he didn't expect Xue Beng to notice it.
After listening to Dugu Bo's warning, Xue Beng clasped his hands and said in a low voice: "My nervousness is not groundless. From very early on, I felt that there was a huge conspiracy shrouding the palace. This feeling happened at the moment when my father fainted. It’s more obvious.”
"Then why do you want to package yourself as a playboy disciple, causing trouble everywhere, being arrogant and domineering and bullying others?" Liu Changge asked in confusion.
Xue Beng looked at Dugu Bo, who nodded to him, "Don't worry, Shrek is not our enemy."
"I'm doing this to protect myself. If I don't pretend to be mediocre and cause trouble, my imperial brother will definitely not be able to tolerate me."
Xue Beng's royal brother is none other than Xue Qinghe, the crown prince of the Tiandou Empire.
"Both brothers were killed by him. I could only pretend to be crazy and act stupid just to protect myself. But now, I feel that he has reached out to my father. I can no longer sit still and wait for death." Xue Beng gave Yueyuan and Liu Changge a heavy blow. He bowed and said sincerely: "All previous offenses were done out of necessity. Please forgive me."
The dignified prince condescended to apologize, and Yue Yuan no longer cared about it so much. While realizing the darkness of the royal dispute, she also noticed someone.
Snow clears the river.
This man is not simple.
"If you want to study the mystery of this spice, you have found the right person." Yue Yuan smiled faintly, lit up a red mist on the tip of his finger, and got into the sachet brought by Xue Beng.
The red mist outlined eight fogs of different colors and concentrations. After identification, Yue Yuan basically recognized what they were.
"This incense is a potentially chronic poison. It is made from seven kinds of plants, namely poinsettia, daffodils, calla lilies, five-color plums, golden yulans, amaryllis and crocodiles. These seven plants are poisonous when taken alone, and if absorbed in trace amounts They are harmless to the human body, but will gradually accumulate. They are neutralized and made into spices, which have a calming and calming effect on people. However, once mixed together, they will turn into new poisons with long-term use. If you plant a special plant, it will mutate and become seven kinds of mixed poisons."
Dugu Bo's expression was unpredictable, "No wonder even I can't solve it. I can only suppress it by fighting fire with fire."
Only a white mist lingered on Yue Yuan's fingertips. She isolated the fragrant mist, "It is precisely because of the addition of it that even the smallest poison will be infinitely expanded."
Xue Beng asked: "What kind of special plant is it?"
After a moment of struggle with the acacia-red breath, the white mist gradually weakened and condensed into the outline of a graceful plant.
"Snowy swan kiss."
She never expected that besides the one she and Tang San were looking for in the Medicine Valley, there would actually be another immortal plant!
"Do you know the solution?"
Yue Yuan shook her head, with deep confusion surging in her lowered purple pupils.
"Hey, it would be nice if he was a little monster. Why isn't he with you?" Dugu Bo asked.
Liu Changge pinched him and said, "I don't want to pick up the pot, they are at odds with each other!"
"How do I know they..." Dugubo was speechless, "Today's young people are really..."
The full moon retracted the mist and fell into silence.
Not because of Tang San, but because she remembered the method of making this spice and had only told it to one person. This fragrance was created when she was a flower fairy in her previous life, and she shared it with her good friend, Fairy Qianxue. Qianxue even had a very nice name at that time, called "Sleeping in the Colorful Rain".
After processing, the smell of "Sleeping in the Rain" is no different from the ambergris that is always available in the palace. The "Sleeping in the Rain" in Emperor Xueye's room must be more intense. And he must have taken food mixed with snow-colored swan kisses to cause his first poisonous attack.
"The prince has always arranged my father's meals, it must be him!" Xue Beng said.
"But we have no direct evidence to prove that he was responsible for the poison. Your Highness, Fourth Prince, you must keep this matter in your heart." Dugu Bo reminded again.
Originally, Yueyuan didn't want to get involved in the fight in the palace, but because of this incident, she now has a strong interest in Xue Qinghe. The secret recipe from the previous life has spread to this continent. Does this mean Qianxue is also here? What is her relationship with Xue Qinghe? These can't be solved until she comes face-to-face with the crown prince of the Tiandou Empire.
