Li Huaiyun's hand holding the chopsticks stopped in mid-air. He didn't know how to respond for a moment. His heart was full of guilt. If he could stop A Tian, he wouldn't be like this.
"I couldn't help it at the time. A Tian didn't listen to me at all and just wanted to compete with me. Although I tried my best to hold back my strength, I didn't expect that I still used too much force."
Hongyun reached out and patted his back, expressing her understanding of this helplessness.
In this desperation, he had no choice but to take matters into his own hands. No one wanted to do what the best brother would do.
"If you don't do that, A Tian will cause greater harm to the people around you! So, you don't need to blame yourself too much."
Hong Yun continued to comfort her, "Actually, the culprit is still that woman! By the way, when are you going to arrest that woman?"
"Don't worry, we won't let her escape. She will be brought to justice." Li Huaiyun has already sent people to find Fang Yuan's whereabouts.
"As for you saying that you want to take care of A Tian's family, I don't have any objection. I just feel a little inconvenienced?"
"What's the inconvenience? Isn't it just two more pairs of chopsticks?"
Hong Yun glanced around the hall and said, "This place is too small. It's better to find another place to live. We can't let these two women live in the wing room all their lives."
"No, there are two land deeds in the reward. Let's just choose a place and move there! However, before moving, I have a request."
"any request?"
"It's up to you to quickly find someone to get married to!"
"Oh! Auntie, is there any direct relationship between the two?" Li Huaiyun felt baffled. It was obvious that there was no relationship that could be found.
"It's very simple. Since you live there, don't waste the feng shui of those two houses. I sent someone to check it out. The feng shui of that place is very prosperous. It is definitely a good place."
"Wang family?"
Hongyun nodded, "Yes, I heard that people who live in the house have stronger abilities in passing on the family line."
"...! Auntie, how many children are you planning to have?"
Hongyun slapped Li Huaiyun hard on the head, "You bastard, what are you talking about?"
"That's not what you said."
"I mean you!" Hongyun pointed at his head, "What are you thinking about?"
Li Huaiyun felt quite speechless. He asked curiously, "Auntie, why does this Feng Shui have other effects? Why have I never heard of it!"
"You don't know anything about Feng Shui, so what do you know!"
"I'm not worried about my aunt, whether she will be deceived by some people of different religions!"
Hongyun pointed at herself and said with an arrogant look, "You bastard, are you kidding me? Will I let others lie to you?"
"It's very possible!"
Hong Yun said word for word, "Absolutely impossible!"
"Then can't we find another house?"
"No! The feng shui of that place is good! If you want A Tian's family to live there, moving is a must, so there is no room for maneuver. The only condition is that you find it for me."
Li Huaiyun looked puzzled, thinking in his heart, under what circumstances would his aunt not urge me to get married? He complained, "Oh, aunt, why do you always push me to get married!"
"Nonsense, your mother is my sister! I am helping her."
"It's not a kiss!"
"That's my sister too. Of course I have to fulfill her last wish! If we don't get married, at least you can bring someone into the family and have a son and a half daughter first!"
No! This is too urgent. You must know that in this relatively feudal era, if you do this, you will have to soak the pig cage.
"Auntie, you are so anxious. I did this, but if I didn't save everything, I would be caught and dipped in the pig cage!"
"Who dares to do this to you? Do you feel that your life is too long?"
"You are so anxious! Auntie!"
"Stop talking nonsense to me. Do you agree or not?"
Li Huaiyun could only sigh softly and agreed to Hongyun's request. In his opinion, wasn't it just to take people back? This thing is too simple, and it doesn’t say how it must be done.
"Then let's put this matter aside for now. I have something else I need to ask my aunt."
"What's up?"
Li Huaiyun said, "The reason why A Tian became like that, Sikyong said, is because A Tian took some kind of medicine, which caused such changes in his body!"
"Auntie, you are a doctor and know a lot about medicines. Can you guess the origin of this monster?"
"The whole body is carbonized and burning!" Hong Yun stood behind him, walking back and forth. After a while, she stopped, closed her eyes and meditated, and then sat down at the table again.
"Based on your description, I thought of a plant that is used as one of the materials to make some kind of anesthetic,"
"This plant is commonly known as Kuji. It is planted in the south. It is said that this plant was discovered by the demon tribe. It likes heat and needs a lot of watering."
"The leaves are bitter, but the rhizome is sweet, slightly poisonous, and inedible. After flowering and bearing fruit, blood-red, sticky gum will overflow from the fruit. The gum is collected and dried in the sun, and can be used as medicine."
"But if you only consume this colloid, it can relieve pain, paralyze, and make you excited for a short time. If you take it in large amounts, your body will burn and char, and your body will release a lot of energy."
Li Huaiyun asked, "I'm very surprised, how come those demons and barbarians use these things? They are beasts themselves."
"That's right, you wrongly blamed them. In the beginning, they didn't use the medicine to deal with Dazhou!"
"That?"
"A kind of monster was once sealed in the Demonic Land. The seal arrangement showed signs of weakening over a period of time. This is quite serious. It means that the monster is very likely to break away from the seal and be born again. In order to be able to rearrange the seal, The demon clan living nearby at that time sent a large number of demon clan members in in an attempt to restore the seal."
"The sealing place is located in a deep mountain and old forest. A large amount of miasma will be produced in that place. Neither humans nor monsters can survive in this kind of atmosphere. Moreover, these miasmas can also be slightly detonated. As long as a fire is lit close, it will The flames will burn even bigger, and they will even explode if they go deeper."
"So there is no way to enter that place. If the seal is broken, the monsters may destroy the demon clan's residence. Therefore, they can only use this medicine to enter it as a dead soldier, and then seal it again. Arrangement.”
Hong Yun said, "This is why this medicine has been banned by demon barbarians until now, because once it is used, it can no longer be banned."
"But they also wanted to prevent the monster from being born, which led to the current situation. No one can completely escape the power of this drug."
Li Huaiyun frowned. He never thought that there was such a drama behind it. It seemed that this monster was not really just a sinister monster.
"Auntie! According to what you said, these monsters have actually done good deeds, but they just didn't say it!"
"Just because they have done some good deeds, we cannot think that they have no blood feud with us. Those border villages, the massacred villagers, and the robbed food and fields must be kept in mind at all times."
Li Huaiyun immediately bowed and saluted, and said with admiration, "Thank you for your explanation, auntie. I will definitely bear this hatred in my back."
"Yeah! That's good. You must not be used as a dog to those monsters. Such people will definitely be liquidated when the time comes."
"Okay! It's getting late. I'm going back to the house to rest. If I'm tired, I need to get more rest. I'll try to be more energetic when I report to the Demon Slayer Division tomorrow."
Hongyun glanced at Li Huaiyun, "What other case is there?"
"I don't know yet. In short, if you are looking for me urgently, it should be a major case."
Hong Yun complained, "It's true what you said about the Demon Slayer Division. They don't know how to take care of you just after you recover from a serious illness. They always catch you to investigate cases alone. It's really disgusting! They want to take you away." So exhausted!"
Li Huaiyun didn't think so. He felt that Sikyong trusted him so much that no matter how difficult it was, he must investigate the case. This was the best reward for their trust and an important way to show his ability.
As long as he gained Sikyong's trust, he would be able to get permission to look through those secret documents, which might be helpful to his parents' case.
He waved his hand and briefly explained the situation he encountered during the investigation, "Auntie, there is no need to be angry. This also proves that Sikyong has considerable trust in my abilities. This is a good thing!"
"There are still many rewards waiting for me in the future!"
Hong Yun snorted softly. Since she gave too many rewards last time, she has become a little more open-minded about the silver tael. "Now the family doesn't need the silver taels too much. The most important thing is your big event." .”
Li Huaiyong scratched his head vigorously. Now every time he chats, Hongyun will consciously or unconsciously point things to important events in his life. It seems that now, just focusing on these things, he can no longer talk at all.
"Oh! I know! Auntie, you don't have to remind me every day!"
"Doesn't this just show the urgency of the matter! If my aunt doesn't care about you anymore, then who can care about you? The requirements are not high, as long as you bring any girl to the house!"
Hong Yun said with a relaxed look, "Anyway, this matter is your own business, and I don't want to dwell on it."
"Then I'll thank my aunt first!"
Li Huaiyun stood up and left the hall, but just a few steps out of the hall, he suddenly remembered that he had to go to the Jiaofang Division to keep company with the two oiran ladies.
He rubbed his hands vigorously. Oh, after so long, these two women must have missed me.
Li Huaiyun returned to the house, then sat on the bed and meditated for a while. Narcissus ran out of the scroll and floated back and forth throughout the house.
"Master, you are finally back. It's getting late. Let's do something exciting and then wash up and go to bed."
"Today, you stay here and monitor this room. If there is anything strange happening in this room, if anyone approaches or moves around, record these things immediately, but don't alert other people. Just pretend that there is no one in here. .”
Narcissus is quite curious, why do you have to do so many things today? She asked in confusion what was going on.
"Master, why are you leaving me here? Why are you asking me to go to Jiaofangsi with you?"
"you...?"
"How do you know what I'm thinking?"
"Master has forgotten that I have brought Yang Fire into your body before."
Li Huaiyun spread his hands and said, "You just entered my body. Why does it feel like you got into my head?"
He thought carefully for a moment, and that's right! In fact, she entered my consciousness, and this is how we connected!
oops! This is not a particularly good thing! The ancients often said that a gentleman's deeds have no regard for his heart. If I let Narcissus know what I'm thinking, then doesn't that mean I have no privacy at all?
