【Forget Envy】Make a Wish

"It's okay, I'll give it a try." After speaking, the city lord walked out of the room and explained something to the outside.

Dr. Li asked the maid to bring a pen and paper, wrote a prescription, ordered it to be taken twice a day, went out to the city lord and said: "I prescribed some warming and tonic medicine for my wife, to keep my mind up, two months at the latest. Otherwise, there is no way to recover.”

The city lord didn't say anything, just nodded slowly, Wei Wuxian looked at the city lord's expression, he had seen this kind of expression before, it was the powerless expression that Lan Wangji had when he tried to persuade him to lose his life in the ghost way but to no avail. , some pain, some forbearance.Looking back on Lan Wangji's expression at that time, it was more distressed, piercing pain.

For more than a month later, there was no news from the city lord.In Wei Wuxian's view, this Dr. Li is a good doctor who does his best to help the world.Dr. Li would go to take the pulse of the mayor's wife every other day, and in the rest of the time, he was either reading medical books or studying the dosage of the medicine.Wei Wuxian couldn't read any of the books he read, nor could he understand them.In each of his medical classics, there will be a phoenix leaf, which is sometimes used as a bookmark, and more often it is clipped on the title page.Sometimes he would stare at the dark green sycamore leaves for a while, but most of them didn't last long.

Finally, about a month and a half later, the news came, and the city lord, Rong Guanghua, came to the door to inform him personally.

"The subordinates found the traces of two spirit beasts and caught one," said the city lord.

"Very good, but the city lord still has to find a way to bring the other one back, the two together will have a magical effect." The city lord did not doubt that he was there, and quickly ordered.

The city lord followed Li Yiyun's original intention and repaired the underground palace in the inner courtyard.A few days after the completion of the project, the soldiers in charge of arresting locked a spirit beast inside.A few days later, the second spirit beasts were also sent in one after another.

Ever since the spirit beast entered the underground palace, Li Yiyun hadn't made the next move, and the city lord was also very anxious. After asking several times, he didn't dare to rush, and could only wait anxiously.Li Yiyun spent the whole day beside the spirit beast, observing it all day, no one knew what he was looking at, not even Wei Wuxian.Until one day, Li Yiyun stood in front of the city lord holding a bowl of blood, calling it the blood of a spirit beast.Seeing the bowl of blood, the city lord hurriedly ordered the maid to serve his wife.

After a month and a half, Wei Wuxian saw the lady of the city lord's complexion getting better and better, and thought to himself: It turns out that the magical effect of this carving lies in blood.

And Li Yiyun was also worshiped as a miracle doctor by the city lord, and his trust in him grew day by day.Li Yiyun ordered his attendants to lock the Gu carvings together, and he himself didn't come out of the underground palace very often. A bowl of blood was continuously sent out from the underground palace every day, and the city lord's wife was getting better day by day.On a good day, Wei Wuxian didn't even think that this was a city of Qing that was about to be destroyed. Wei Wuxian didn't know what Li Yiyun scribbled on ancient books every day, but he only felt that doctors were curious and caring.Every day Li Yiyun bleeds Gu Diao's body in a different place, every time he puts a drop of blood into a pot of dying flowers, this potted flower is moistened by blood every day, and now it grows very well.

Seeing that the castellan's wife is about to give birth, everyone from top to bottom is busy with the castellan's wife and the young castellan who is about to be born.Wei Wuxian was forced to follow Li Yiyun in the underground palace every day. Li Yiyun occasionally said a few words before, but recently he didn't say a word.Wei Wuxian occasionally glanced at medical books following his movements. He really didn't want to read it, but he had to.It was an ancient medical book, which contained many portraits of animals, as well as some annotations and explanations. I couldn't understand the words, but it was okay to look at the pictures.

The attendants outside the underground palace rushed to invite Li Yiyun, breaking the original tranquility of the underground palace.Li Yiyun followed his attendants into the room of the mayor's wife. There were too many people in the room. He sent out a group of people, leaving only the two maids who took care of the wife the most.He stepped forward to get a pulse, but only quietly ordered the maid to prepare for the delivery.

But in the end, one dead body and two lives, Wei Wuxian, who was so fast, didn't know what happened.Wei Wuxian only knew that the young city lord was born stillborn, and the city lord's wife also died of a blood collapse.The voice of the city lord roared outside the house, and no one could accept this result.

Li Yiyun was escorted into the underground palace, from the beginning to the end, he didn't make any excuses, the city lord hoped to study the effect of revived Gu carvings.Li Yiyun was still the same as before, not talking, and immersed himself in the study of the two Gu carvings every day.

Until one night, Li Yiyun suddenly woke up from his dream, picked up the dagger that had been bled, and stabbed it into the gu eagle that had been bled.Due to long-term blood loss, the Gu Eagle was weak and vulnerable, sobbing on its stomach.Wei Wuxian didn't know that he had a convulsion in the middle of the night, and saw Li Yiyun take out the glass bottle. Wei Wuxian had an impression of that glass bottle, it was the only thing outside of his body that Li Yiyun brought into the city.Li Yiyun approached the sobbing gu carving with the bottle, squatted down and put the bottle at the corner of the gu carving's eyes.Wei Wuxian was surprised to find that the eagle's tears were red!

It's blood and tears! !

And the blood and tears turned transparent without a few drops.Li Yiyun carefully covered the lid, put it back on the table, picked up a cloth strip and bandaged it briefly, and ignored it.Going back and forth like this for a few days, studying medical books during the day, and torturing the weak Gu Eagle at night, it lasted more than half a month, and it was worth collecting half a bottle of blood and tears.

Within a few days, Li Yiyun disappeared one night, leaving only two Gu sculptures in the underground palace...

Wei Wuxian woke up leisurely, instead of the dark night when Li Yiyun was running away, what was in front of him was the expression of Lan Wangji calling him, Lan Wangji's mouth opened and closed.Wei Wuxian couldn't hear his voice, but he knew it must be calling his name.Wei Wuxian raised his hand to touch his face, which he did too.Lan Wangji's face felt warm.

Wei Wuxian was sweating like waterlogged, and it wasn't until Lan Wangji sat him up in his arms that he got used to the surrounding environment.

"How?" Lan Wangji asked with concern.

Wei Wuxian shook his hand and comforted him, "Well, it's just that I was a little confused when I came back suddenly, but I'm much better now."

Wei Wuxian turned his head to look at Li Yiyun who was already dead, why did a person who clearly escaped appear here again?

Wei Wuxian looked at Li Yiyun who was at the side and said slowly: "This person borrows the power of others to study ancient medical techniques, for his own selfishness, imprisoning gu carvings, taking their flesh and blood for medicine, killing people, fabricating lies, cough cough" Wei Wuxian After a pause, he firmly believed that Li Yiyun was the chief culprit that led to the destruction of Qingcheng City, the planner and promoter of this disaster.

Li Yiyun in the corner was still wearing the same suit as when he fled, and Wei Wuxian remembered the glass bottle he had brought with him when he fled.

Yes, look for glass bottles.

Wei WuXian turned to Lan WangJi and said, "Lan Zhan, the Gu carving over there has been weak for decades, give it a good time." Wei WuXian supported the wall and stood up, Lan WangJi approached Gu Diao lifted Bichen up, everything ended like this.

If the medical scriptures are true, blood and tears can bring people back to life, but its blood cannot even save itself, which is a bit ironic.Wei Wuxian didn't know what Li Yiyun did to it when he came back, in short, it wouldn't be anything good for it.In Li Yiyun's eyes, Gu carving is just a medicinal material. He is studying the medicinal effect of the medicinal material, so naturally he will not pay attention to the feeling of the medicinal material, just the knife and fish.

Back in the inn room, Lan Wangji handed Wei Wuxian the change of clothes, then turned his head and went out to find Lan Sizhui. Wei Wuxian changed his clothes, took out the glass bottle in his arms and hid it, and lay on the bed Fall asleep.

The glazed bottle was naturally the one on Li Yiyun's body, it was dug out from the inside of Li Yiyun's jacket when Lan Wangji killed the Gu Eagle, time was running out, and he didn't have time to think about whether the blood was still effective, so he hurriedly hid it in his bosom.

When Lan Wangji came back, the room was quiet, Wei Wuxian was sound asleep on the bed, and he didn't realize that his shoes were thrown on the bed.Lan Wangji walked over to put down his shoes, and pulled the quilt for him.

While Wei Wuxian was sleeping, Lan Wangji briefly explained to Lan Sizhui what happened after they separated.

In the evening, Wei Wuxian woke up from hunger, closed his eyes and called his second brother, Lan Wangji got up to check his situation, and said, "Wei Ying, eat."

Lan SiZhui went into the house and bowed to the two of them, and said urgently: "Senior Wei guessed right, as soon as I asked the Orion for details, the man began to gossip about him, saying that the story about the little Gu Eagle was indeed a fabrication. This hunter took money from the squire and made up lies to attract more immortals to Qing County." Lan SiZhui said slowly.

Wei Wuxian sighed, and said, "Oh, it's really thanks to them, who would have thought that there was another one in the depths of the valley, and there really was a small Gu Eagle, but it died long ago."

"Senior Wei, Hanguang-Jun, I have another question, which is..." Lan Sizhui stammered.

【Forget Envy】Fulfillment of wishes⑤Conjecture

"Senior Wei, Hanguang-Jun, I still have one question that I can't figure out, that pair of Gu carvings lived in the valley for more than a year, why was it not discovered until recently?" Lan Sizhui asked suspiciously.

This question is not so easy to deduce, and Wei Wuxian didn't know where to start, since everyone is here, we might as well discuss it.

Wei Wuxian thought for a while, and said to the two of them, "Let's sort out the clues."

"First, there are human bones outside the cave, scattered near the entrance of the cave, not buried deep and without spirits. It may be inferred that at least the gu carvings can come and go freely before these people die. Second, when we entered the cave from the valley, we did Found the corpse of a small Gu carving." Speaking of this, Lan Sizhui couldn't bear it any longer. When he heard Lan Wangji talk about it just now, he couldn't understand it. The hunters had already admitted that it was a lie, so why would there really be a small Gu carving? Died in a cave, what is the truth?

Wei Wuxian signaled Lan Sizhui to calm down, and continued: "Third, Li Yiyun escaped obviously, why did he appear in the cave?
