Chapter 9 Gossip
"Hey, have you heard?" Just after lunch, a woman said to the person next door.

"What did you hear?" The woman next door looked up suspiciously, and seeing the other party waving at her with a mysterious face, driven by curiosity, she hurried over.

"I heard that the woman pushed by the temple is dying." The woman whispered with one hand covering her mouth.

"Which woman? Oh...couldn't it be the one who fought with Helier last time?" The person next to her exclaimed, and the woman next to her immediately covered her mouth when she saw this, and glanced at Helier next door with reassurance. Lil's room.

"Hush, keep your voice down, you don't want to be retaliated, I only told you this news, let me tell you, I heard that the woman was punished by the temple after going back last time, I heard that she was very sick dead."

"Ah, is the news reliable? If it's true, that would be great. We would lose one opponent." Hearing the news, the woman frowned, as if she was very happy.

"Can I still lie to you? I only tell you this news, don't tell anyone else."

"Don't worry, I guarantee that only the two of us know about this matter, but I haven't seen Herrier these days, so maybe..."

"Shh, keep your voice down, she's here." Just as she was about to continue the detailed conversation, she heard a creak, and the door that had been closed for several days suddenly opened, and the person who came out was not Herrier, but her servant Emma.The dark skin is completely different from other people, and the ugly face is unforgettable at a glance.

Seeing Emma glaring at the two of them viciously, she lifted the washbasin in her hand, and the water splashed on them. Although they were not completely wet, this behavior also annoyed them.

A woman's face was flushed instantly, but she was about to go forward but was pulled back by her companion, who gave her a look of reluctance. After the servant closed the door, the woman asked her companion why she was blocking her just now with a little anger.

"You don't want to be missed by that vicious woman, Herriel, do you? But don't be angry, I'm just a lowly servant. I have a plan..." The two people outside the room were whispering, and the protagonist they were talking about But in the house his face was gloomy.

These days, she has been hiding in the house to recuperate because of her face injury. Her face is the thing she cares about the most, but she was injured by a lowly woman. She must take revenge for this.And it would make the other party's life worse than death!It's not that she doesn't know what the people around her are talking about. Those women are all waiting to see her jokes.

She will not let these women watch her jokes, she will remember all those who laughed at her, and she will take revenge one by one when her face is healed, she reaches out to touch the gauze-wrapped face, feeling even more resentful towards Wang Xiaoyu in her heart, Not only because the other party scratched her face, but also because it was no less beautiful than her.

"Princess, it's time to drink the medicine..." Emma said aloud when she saw her master's face getting darker, and the oppressive atmosphere made her feel a little awkward.

"Go away." Helier reached out and knocked down the stone bowl, and the medicinal soup spilled all over the floor and onto Emma's hands. Before she could cry out the pain, she knelt down and kowtowed for mercy.

"Bitch, are you laughing at me too, do you want to see me laugh?" At this moment, Herlier was like a crazy lioness, her delicate face had already been distorted, as if the person kneeling in front of her was Wang Xiaoyu, She stretched out her hand and scratched, but Emma didn't dare to hide, she could only bite her lip and endure, because she knew that the more she begged for mercy, the harder her master beat her.

After beating for a while, Herlier was out of breath, and stretched out her hand to support the bed frame to catch her breath. Seeing that the situation had calmed down, Emma stood up and was about to help her master go back to bed for a rest. As soon as she stretched out her hand, she was opened; Are things ready?"

"Something?" Emma was taken aback, and when she remembered it, she had already been slapped several times; "Trash, I asked you to prepare it a few days ago, and you dared to forget it for me, you did it on purpose, right? "

"Princess, I know I was wrong, please forgive me." Thinking about a few days ago, my master did take care of me for one thing, but that thing was too...

"What are you still doing in a daze, hurry up and prepare for me, if you don't prepare well before dark, you will never see the moon tonight." The vicious words are definitely not a joke, Emma knows this very well, it seems that it is time to come After all, you can't escape.

The night was lingering, dark clouds covered the sun, the weather tonight was a bit gloomy, a strong wind suddenly blew up at dusk, and the wind became stronger and stronger, until the branches were bent, and there were noises outside the house, many people had already died fall asleep.

At this time, a room on the top of the mountain was still lit, and a faint oil lamp was burning, and there was a faint crackling sound in the silent corridor, which was the sound of burning lard.The light of the torch swayed slightly with the swing of the owner, which made the surrounding light flicker, coupled with the sound of footsteps, it made people feel dizzy.

There seems to be an invisible beast lurking in the dark front, quietly waiting for the prey to arrive, and the endless darkness seems to have no end.

"Squeak~" There was a numb door opening sound in the darkness, and a gust of cold wind blew the flames almost extinguished. He stretched out his hand and turned sideways slightly until the flames returned to normal before proceeding carefully to the last steps of the tower. There was another toothache sound, and the wooden door closed again.

This is a basement full of all kinds of strange plants. The room is not big, only about ten square meters. Such a small area is filled with all kinds of plants, and each plant has a unique smell.Or strong fragrance, or bitter, the whole room is filled with a strong smell of Chinese herbal medicine.

Roy walked slowly to a corner. He bent down and pulled a stone. It turned out that there was a groove under the stone. He bent down and reached out to take out a small box. The box was only the size of a palm and looked very delicate. Open the box , a broken book appeared in the palm of my hand.

The color of the pages of the book has long since turned yellow, and the font on the cover has long been blurred. Roy carefully held the book and came to the table. It's getting tighter, isn't there even a cure in this book?

Rubbing his temples while reading it, finally, when the oil lamp was about to burn out, his eyes lit up. The illness recorded on it was the same as hers, and the solution was also attached below, but the prescription disappeared when it was written. After turning back, I saw the desktop, but I didn't expect it to be over.

The book only has a cover but no back. This is an incomplete book. The other half is in the hands of someone. If you can get it, you can save many people. It's a pity...

There is still a little taste, what is it?There are a total of 8 types written in the book, and the last medicine has been torn off. Now he can only rely on his own deduction and use angelica to replace the missing one. I hope...his deduction is correct.

There was a gust of wind outside, and the cold wind didn't miss any opportunity to invade the body. When it seized the opportunity, it burrowed hard into the clothes. The surrounding was pitch black, and it could only rely on the moonlight above its head to grope forward.

"Shusha" the grass trembled slightly, and if you didn't look carefully, you would think it was caused by the wind. Two furtive figures were squatting under the cover of leaves and whispering. The voices were two women, and one of them said, "Where is the thing?"

"Yes, here." Another voice carefully brought the burlap bag in front of him. There seemed to be something moving in the bag, and both of them knew exactly what was in it.

"Very good, wait a minute, you put this in, remember, you must be careful to know? If someone finds out, you know how I will deal with the loser." The vicious words made Emma tremble all over, and of course she was more than Everyone knows the consequences of failure, but now, she has to bite the bullet.

Seeing that there was no one around, Emma was about to drill into the grass. At this moment, her body was pulled back and her ankle was sprained. She let out a miserable cry and was covered with her mouth. The pain made her tears overflow .

"Shh, don't make noise, if you keep making noise, I'll twist your head off." The threat from the back of the neck made Emma stop struggling, and she watched with tears in her eyes as a white dress walked past the grass where they were hiding.

Even though the visitor was in a hurry, they only came in a hurry to see a figure from behind, but the unique temperament and the smell of medicine made them recognize each other's identity at a glance, it was him, why did he appear here so late?
The two didn't dare to take a breath, and watched the white shadow enter the door. The lights were not turned on in the room, and there was no loud noise. This made the two people outside the door full of doubts. In the middle of the night, they sneaked into a woman alone. The room, which makes people can't help but think about it.

"Princess, do we still want to..." After being liberated, Emma cautiously asked Helier who was behind her.

"Yes, of course, but before that, let me make sure of one thing." With that said, Herrier got out of the grass, which scared Emma who was still in the grass to death. It would be too bad to be discovered. I looked around and became more and more frightened, so I followed closely behind.

On the bed, Wang Xiaoyu was panting uncomfortably, she instinctively wanted to tear off the thing that made her breathing uncomfortable, and the collar on her chest had been torn off to reveal the beige linen inside, which made the person in front of the bed walk. After a pause, his face unconsciously shifted slightly sideways.

The cold hand touched the opponent's forehead, and the hot hand made him startled. Thinking of the other person's burning like this for several days, a trace of guilt flashed in his heart, but soon, that trace of guilt was replaced by busyness.

He reached out and took out a bowl of decoction from the box, touched the temperature with his hand just right, and brought the bowl to her lips, but found that the other party was completely unconscious and could not feed the decoction. In vain.

"Princess, what is she doing... um." Just after saying a few words, Helier on the side covered her mouth and dragged her into a corner. Just as she was hiding, the door opened, and a head poked out. It was pitch black, except for the rustling of the wind, and nothing else.
