"You... Forget it." Chi Heting hesitated to speak, and added a spoonful of salt to his porridge bowl, stirring silently.

He originally thought that Gu Miao was not afraid of poison because of his innate physique, or some kind of chance, but from this point of view, it was the worst guess.

"Say what you want." Gu Meiren imitated the example, and added a spoonful of seasoning to herself, "You black witches, haven't you been used to this kind of thing for a long time?"

"But I've never seen a medicine man as perfect as you..." Chi Heting wanted to ask who concocted it, but the concocted object was sitting in front of him, so he couldn't ask, frowning and fell silent .

"They're all dead. Before I escaped, I set a fire and burned the place completely, leaving no trace."

that place--

Filled with shrill and sharp howls, the drug man who was tortured to the point of losing his mind tore off his own flesh, and countless chains crazily crashed into the iron cage, doing meaningless and desperate work in the purgatory that no one knew about. struggle.

In the dirty and narrow cage, Gu Miao curled up into a ball, with blood under his body, blood on his hands, and blood all over his mouth and nose, as if there was blood in his young body that wouldn't drain dry.

Someone stopped in front of the cage, whispered to each other for a while, a hand in a rough leather sheath reached in, grabbed the boy's sharp and thin chin, and forcibly fed him something.Severe pain suddenly surged out of his body, like ten thousand ants devouring his heart, gnawing at every inch of his internal organs. He opened his mouth wide open as if he was suffocating, coughing up blood, his whole body convulsed, but he couldn't utter a single scream.

...day after day, without end.

Gu Miao suddenly lost her appetite, lowered her eyes, and said as if to comfort herself: "It's better than losing your life."

Chi Heting didn't make a sound, and slowly drank the porridge.

The turbulent emotions ran wildly in his chest, which could not be calmed down, and a little bit of unbearable agitation like insect bites was born.Gu Miao stared at him, and suddenly wanted to lift the table, kick over the small clay stove next to him, and beat the black witch in front of him as well.

After holding back for a while, Gu Meiren obviously couldn't hold back, and started to find fault: "Why don't you talk?"

After eating the last spoonful of porridge, Chi Heting raised his head and said, "I'm reflecting on why I didn't burn Xuanzong when I escaped. From this point of view, you are still slightly better."

Gu Miao: "?"

It's like punching the cotton with a punch, and there's no way to use it.

"Most of Xuanzong's black witches joined voluntarily. There are also those like me who, like the medicine man, were fed poison and grew up." Probably because his angry appearance was really funny, Chi Heting laughed After a while, he continued, "Although it is not as rough as making ordinary medicine men, few people can hold on. In that batch, only me and...another child survived to the end. I know how difficult it is." Take it, a few words of comfort are too useless for these things. Of course, if you want to hear it, I can tell you."

Gu Miao looked at him in surprise, for a moment she even forgot that she was still angry.After a while, he looked away and muttered, "Then you're still a black witch?"

"If you don't become a black witch, don't you wait to die?"

Gu Miao was speechless again.

"Another child..."

"Dead." Before he could finish asking, Chi Heting couldn't help but stretched out his hand and pulled his hair, "San Shui, which pot do you not open and which pot do you carry?"

"..." Gu Miao was defeated and had no choice but to calm down.

"Do you still eat porridge?"

"Don't eat."

"Well, I see that you don't have anything to do, why don't you wait for the pharmacy to help? I promised Wu Zhou that I will refine the antidote within half a year, and some trivial matters are too busy." Chi Heting laughed again , as if mentioning the past didn't touch him much at all, "By the way, I will teach you some knowledge. If there are dangerous medicines that need to be refined, you have to obey me obediently and don't stay in the house."

Gu Miao was taken aback, and said hesitantly, "Last time...something happened."

"Last time, it was your fault. Fighting is forbidden in the pharmacy." Chi Heting said seriously, as if forgetting that he was one of them, one of the culprits, "You can help me copy the materials, organize the letters, or paste the porcelain Label it. Anyway, don't make trouble."

After nodding her head, Gu Miao suddenly came to her senses, pretending to be indifferent, and said, "I'm not interested in black witches."

"Oh, all right. Then you wash the pots and dishes."

After all, Chi got up as quickly as lightning, rushed into the pharmacy in the backyard, and dropped the bolt by the way.After a stick of incense, someone began to knock on the window persistently.

Chi Heting slowly opened the window and said, "Huh? Are you done washing?"

Gu Meiren said coldly: "No, it's all broken."

Chi Heting: "?"

He felt very bad and deeply felt that he had miscalculated, but it was too late, and he mourned for a moment of silence for the lost pot and bowl.Gu Miao leaned on the window, pretending to come in, and said, "Open the door, I need to find something to do."

Chi Heting sighed again and again, helplessly let this disaster in, and warned again: "Don't make trouble."

"Ah."

Chi did not expect this disaster to be so peaceful.

Until a piece of special white wax burned out, and pale yellow crystals appeared on the baking shallow porcelain cup, he rubbed his slightly tired eyes and looked out the window.

The sun is setting and the clouds are all over the sky.

Chi Heting was at a loss: Why didn't Gu Miao come to ask himself about lunch?

Could it be that he couldn't bear the hunger and sneaked out to eat by himself?

He walked around the pharmacy, searched the entire hospital, and then returned to the pharmacy—and finally found someone in the compartment where the manuscript files were stored.

The compartments are messy and it is really not easy to find someone.Gu Miao huddled in a corner, leaning her head on the bookshelf with an open book on her head, sleeping soundly, unaware that she had been buried by the stack of books and bamboo slips.

Chi Heting walked through the messy ground, picked up a roll of bamboo slips that fell on him, and said with a smile: "San Shui?"

Gu Meiren's long eyelashes trembled slightly, and she frowned impatiently, obviously unwilling to be disturbed.

"Snapped".

The bamboo slips tapped lightly on his head, finally waking him up from his sleep.

"...I didn't fall asleep!" Gu Miao was startled, and instantly woke up, hurriedly catching the falling bamboo slips, and instinctively argued, "I'm helping you organize...these things."

It doesn't seem very convincing.

Chi Heting didn't expose him, but squatted down and asked, "Are you hungry?"

Gu Miao said honestly, "Hungry."

"Are you doing anything else besides eating?"

"kill."

"...Pfft, hahahahaha!" Chi Heting wiped away the tears from his laughter, and pulled him up from the pile of books, "Let's go, I'll take you to have a good meal."

In order to make up for the missed lunch, Gu Miao ordered a table full of dishes.

"So many." Chi Heting pushed away the several spicy dishes in front of him with disgust, "Fortunately, the crossbow I put in Lin's ironware has been sold, otherwise I would have to eat Bawang meal and mortgage you to wash dishes here .”

Gu Miao chewed the chili with relish, and muttered, "...Pixiu."

Chi Heting pricked up his ears: "I heard it!"

"I heard it when I heard it." Gu Miao said, "Have you used all your money to buy medicinal materials?"

The assortment of poisons on the shelves of the pharmacy, carefully placed in different categories, is worth a lot of money.

"more or less."

No wonder they are poor and white.

Gu Miao laughed, and said, "You are indeed the poorest black witch I have ever seen, bar none."

Someone late: "?"

He suddenly had a strong urge to poison the food.

"I can save you once in a while."

"...Then I really thank you." Chi recalled the rich purse, not knowing whether to laugh or cry, and immersed himself in his meal.

The wine and food are full, and the cups and plates are messed up.

Chi Heting reckoned that the money on his body might not be enough to settle the bill for the meal, so he told Gu Miao, and went to Lin's Iron Ware to collect the money alone, while Gu Miao continued to sweep the dishes with endless enthusiasm.

Suddenly someone beside him said: "This brother eats alone, so elegant."

Gu Miao squinted her eyes, judged that this person was not a black witch, and ignored him.But the man clung to him relentlessly, sat down directly opposite him, and continued to make friends: "To be honest, I hit it off with my brother..."

Seeing that he took Chi Heting's position, Gu Miao looked up slightly coldly and said, "So?"

The implication is that there is so much nonsense, hurry up and get out.

The man didn't realize it, and said with a smile: "So, I just settled the bill for this table for Xiongtai."

Gu Miao: "?"
