Servant of the Otherworldly Pharmacopoeia

This is a spacious and quiet room, the walls are pitch black, the furniture is simple and mostly black, the only bright thing is probably the glowing night lamp next to the bookshelf.The room is very long, as if the entire floor has been opened, and there are long curtains at the intervals, stacked one after another until far away.

There was a man in a black robe in the room, sitting in front of the window with the backlight, the halo formed a strange effect around him, like a silhouette, making the back thinner and slender, the slightly curly black hair was docile in the hollow of the neck, and the neck was long , evoking a thin arc.The sky was bright outside the window, and the man was sitting there looking down.

There was a knock on the door, and the man's contemplation was interrupted, but he didn't look back, he just said, "Come in."

Perhaps because of his long-term reticence, his voice was hoarse and jerky. The outsider opened the door as gently as possible, and walked behind him gently: "My lord."

The man turned around and said to his butler, "Yuan."

The head steward, Huan, has half-white hair. He is a servant of the Dutu family and has served for most of his life. There are already serious wrinkles on his face. He is a ruthless character when managing the manor, but he is kind in front of men. , with a natural intimacy: "My lord, I brought it."

The two looked out the window together.

Following the line of sight of the two, a young man wearing a servant's uniform appeared in the courtyard.He was standing there in clean white clothes and purple trousers. He was thin, with yellowish hair, and looked very lively.At this moment, he was staring at Yun Ban with his melon-seeded face upturned, and his face was full of confusion that he couldn't tell the situation.This is a healthy and thin boy, the bright eyes make the whole person look full of vitality, he still looks like a child.

The man folded his arms and looked at him carefully.

Xu Jiu didn't know that someone was staring at him, and he was worried about how to catch the big cat.

Yunban has long yellow and white hair and is obese. When he was lying there, his body was covered with fat and folded in circles.

"Meow~" Xu Jiu called it.

Yunban glanced at the humans below and ignored them.Continue to bask in the sun lazily.

"Meow meow meow, come down~" Xu Jiu said as he tiptoed up to him, with an exaggerated smile on his face.

The big cat still wouldn't dump him.

Xu Jiu passed through big trees carved from jasper and came to Sha Mao's feet, the purple flower bells carved from gems rang all the way.

This tree is not high, only about one or two meters, and it is easy to climb up, but...Xu Jiu felt a headache when he saw the beautiful leaves all over the tree.

The two upstairs watched Xu Jiuchi slither to the middle to reach out to catch Yunban, and every time he was about to touch, Yunban would scratch his paw severely, turn and jump to another tree.

Although the big cat is an obese big cat, it lazily does not move for a long time, but it moves very fast. It only glances at the human being when Xu Jiu is about to catch it, and then calmly shifts its position and takes Xu Jiu away. Go crazy with anger.

The man looked at it with great interest, his sculptural features raised an arc, and he smiled softly.

Rao is the butler who has long been calm, and is still surprised by the man's smile at this time. His master is obviously not a person who thinks that catching cloud spots is very interesting, and he rarely smiles at ordinary times, except for the expression on his face, he is annoyed after being provoked , since childhood.The housekeeper observed the man's face calmly, and found that the child he had taken care of since he was a child was really smiling. His pale face turned red, and the curve of his mouth hadn't disappeared.

The butler kept his movements even lighter, even holding his breath, for fear of disturbing his master.

The young man downstairs was still jumping up and down unrelentingly. The violent exercise made his hair messy, his face flushed, and he looked like a domesticated animal.Climbing up and down made him sweat, and suddenly he stomped his feet angrily, pointed at the clouds and yelled something, then turned and ran away.

After the young man ran away, the courtyard suddenly became empty. The man suppressed his smile, and returned to his usual expressionless face. His body leaned forward imperceptibly, and his eyes followed Xu Jiu until he disappeared.

The butler asked with concern: "My lord?"

The man looked back at him, his extremely pensive expression and pale face made him look too quiet, he looked at his butler, waiting for the next words.

"Does your lord want to keep him?"

"what?"

"This young man is the son of a tenant in a village in the jurisdiction. If your lord wants to keep him, I can deal with it immediately."

The man turned his head: "No."

The butler was a little puzzled, but he abided by the rules and stopped talking.

Xu Jiu ran back again. He wanted to borrow something like a net bag, but the manor didn't have any. The servants were afraid that he would hit Yushu, so they didn't want to give it to him. To many servants who laughed at him.He borrowed a large piece of cooked meat from the kitchen, which was said to be Yunban's favorite, and ran out of breath to the tree where the big cat was squatting.

"Meow meow, there is meat to eat—" Xu Jiu shook a piece of meat in front of his eyes, the sun shone on the meat, the color was golden, and the long-lost smell of meat scrambled into his nostrils, scratching his lungs, Xu Jiu swallowed unwillingly I spit.

"There is meat to eat..." Xu Jiu yelled weakly, making his stomach growl.

One person and one cat were in a stalemate, and the big cat yawned without even taking a look.

"Who gave him the sauce meat?"

The housekeeper coughed lightly: "The people in the kitchen are getting more and more disorganized."

The man nodded. Seeing the boy staring at the meat, he looked like he wanted to take a bite: "Let him eat."

The butler withdrew: "Yes, my lord."

Xu Jiu was quickly led down, and Yunban stood up when she saw that he was gone, shook her hair, and rushed out like a bolt of lightning.

Then, it seemed as if there was only one person left in the whole world.

The man pushed the chair forward, stretched out his hand and opened the window, a gust of wind suddenly blew in, shaking the pages of the book behind him.The rubbing of eucalyptus leaves, the jingling of flower bells, and the noise of servants in the distance all caught my ears.

The man himself stood out in this bustle, his face turned white against the black wall, and his eyelashes were thick and long, like two rows of feathers covering his dark and bright pupils, but his eyes showed no emotion , he looked under the window, and just looked at it.

Soon, the window that was rarely opened was closed again. The man pushed the wheelchair to the table, looked at the clock by the table, and found that it was already noon.

After a while, the butler knocked on the door again and came in with today's lunch in his hand: "My lord."

The man looked at the food brought by the butler and frowned: "I don't want to eat."

... After all, the butler watched him grow up, and knew that his temper had flared up again, but he was helpless when he heard this: "Why don't you eat anymore?"

The man pursed his lips tightly: "I don't want to eat."

"My lord," the old housekeeper seemed to be patient with him, "what do you want to eat, my lord?"

"I don't want to eat anything."

This is a prank.

The butler is getting old, and when the master was angry when he was young, he still found a way to coax him. As the master grew bigger, he has now grown into a fully grown man with his own manor. He acts decisively and can be alone. Face, but rarely angry.

The housekeeper thought for a while: "Do you want to see the child at the bottom?"

The man looked at him, his eyes were big and dark, gradually covered with a layer of hesitation, but soon disappeared, and his tone was flat: "No."

The butler secretly sighed.Seeing that he really didn't intend to eat, he had no choice but to leave some snacks and walked away quietly.

There was one more person left in the house.

The man pushed the chair slowly towards other rooms, the pulleys rubbing against the floor, the sound was extremely harsh.He lowered his head and looked at his legs expressionlessly.
