Shen Huaiyan thought that what the black shadow wanted was to cause chaos among the human race, but he was wrong.
"It hurts... I hurt so much..." Although the fire on her back was no longer burning, Wen Yuan still cried out that her body hurt.
Shen Huaiyan looked intently at the birthmark on her back, looking like a pattern that he had accidentally seen in a secret book thousands of years ago.
But it was so long ago that he could no longer remember which secret book he saw it in, and naturally he couldn't remember the complete pattern in the book.
While he was in a daze, Wen Yuan dug at his back until it was bloody, but he still couldn't suppress the burning feeling.
ah!
Wen Yuan went berserk, and the strange power erupting from the birthmark hurt Shen Huaiyan.
After screaming, Wen Yuan fell into coma again, but this time her birthmark had stabilized and was no longer red and swollen.
The birthmark is like a dead tree sprouting, lifelike.
Regardless of his injuries, Shen Huaiyan got up and checked Wen Yuan's condition first. Seeing that she was in good physical condition, he felt much relieved, "Chunhua, take good care of Miss, I may have to go out for a while, and I will ask Ah Yue to protect you well." of. "
Chunhua has never doubted Shen Huaiyan's sincerity towards her young lady. Today he said he wanted to leave. Chunhua knew the truth of letting him go and would not stop him.

Three days passed in the blink of an eye. During these three days, not a drop of Wen Yuan rice water was taken in, but there was no trace of haggardness.
He was obviously in a coma, but it was no different from sleeping peacefully on ordinary days.
"Is Princess Xianyang feeling better?" Shanlu Khan wanted to go in to visit, but Chi Zhaoyue stopped him at the door and refused to let him in.
"The princess is blessed by gods and Buddhas, so the Great Khan need not worry."
How could he not be worried? Shanlu Khan had lost weight from hunger these days because he was worried that Wen Yuan would die in his palace.
But when Chi Zhaoyue said so definitely, the big stone in his heart finally fell.
He was in a happy mood and suddenly wanted to drink. He left in a hurry without saying a few words, "That's good. I won't disturb the princess' rest and go back first."
As soon as they left, Wen Yuan in the hall sat up from the bed and stared in the same direction in a daze.
Chunhua was startled when she came in, but she soon became happy and said, "Miss, you're awake!"
"How long have I been sleeping?" Wen Yuan rubbed his shoulders, feeling that his body had never been so relaxed.
But the pain of having her back burned by fire a few days ago still existed in her memory, and she just hoped that such a thing would not happen again in the future.
He reached out and touched the birthmark on his back, "I remember my back was on fire... I couldn't stop taking pictures, so why couldn't I touch the scar?"
"Miss... there was indeed a fire on your back that day, but... after the fire extinguished itself, the birthmark of the lady changed."
"Change?" Wen Yuan was confused. What kind of change? Can birthmarks change?
"What changes?"
It wasn't until Chunhua got the bronze mirror that Wen Yuan was able to see clearly what was going on behind him, "How could this happen..."
She remembered that her birthmark was shaped like a dead tree, but now...the dead tree actually sprouted...
Are those dark red buds dried blood?
I rubbed it with my hands, but it couldn't be wiped off no matter what, "What the hell is going on..."
"Chunhua doesn't know either. She only knows that there was a fire on the lady's back that day. After the burning, there was blood on the lady's back, and then... and then..."
She didn't dare to say any more until she met Wen Yuan's cold eyes, "It wasn't until the blood seeped into the skin again...that there were these red buds."
Such a weird situation... I have never encountered it before.
"I know..." Wen Yuan felt a little dizzy and opened the spring flowers. "I'm hungry. You go and prepare something to eat. I'll lie down for a while."
"Yes." Chunhua did not question and hurried to the small kitchen to prepare food for Wen Yuan.
Sitting on the bed, Wen Yuan fumbled with his clothes and found that the pills given by the shadow were gone, so he quickly got out of bed to look for them.
I finally found it on the clothes I wore a few days ago.
Looking at the pills in her hand, she had never been so eager for power, "I don't want to be a waste anymore..."
The moment she swallowed the black pill, the black shadow appeared in her bedroom again.
"It seems you have figured it out." Black Shadow walked outside and sat on the main seat, "Since you want to practice, do you have to call me master?"
Wen Yuan made up his mind not to be a mermaid anymore, poured a cup of tea for the black shadow, and kneeled in front of the black shadow, "Master."
After taking Wen Yuan's tea, the black shadow turned into a human form in an instant, but with a mask on his face, his face could not be seen, "Good disciple, I will teach you well as a master, so that you will no longer be considered a waste in the world. By the way, I will call you Mingquan for my teacher."
After all, I have received the apprenticeship tea from others, so I can't keep it hidden.
"I..." Quan could see through Wen Yuan's thoughts with just one glance.
He didn't care about that, "You don't want them to know, but my master has faded into darkness and is now a human body. They don't recognize it. If you are really worried, my master can hide his aura."
"Really?" Wen Yuan was surprised and happy. He didn't expect that the dark shadow that was scaring him by the window would one day become his master.
"Of course, a teacher never lies to others."
After solving Wen Yuan's most worrying problem, Quan reluctantly told her: "Your spiritual roots will only appear after being slowly purified, and each time of this purification is a narrow escape. Besides, your meridians are opened with elixir. You are still too weak, so you are unable to practice now. In three months, the master will come to you again and will definitely teach you the method of practice."
He found a pair of medicine from the space of his earrings and handed it to Wen Yuan, "My teacher will come and give you medicine every seven days, and you will take it for three months."
After saying that, Wen Yuan turned around and disappeared before asking what the medicine was for.
Only then did Wen Yuan realize that Chi Zhaoyue was back.
As soon as the man entered the door, he was surprised to find that she was awake and circling around Wen Yuan, "I finally woke up. Now I don't have to worry. You don't know that during the time when you were unconscious, the elixir that King Keqi had hidden... Li Xizuo even wants to kill you."
Naturally, he only dared to say it with such certainty after investigation.
Wen Yuan understood that Chi Zhaoyue was not the kind of person who just said anything and did not doubt the authenticity of his words.
"What happened during the days when I was in coma?"
"Not much happened. The people in Keqi are very honest because of the rules set by Shanlu Khan. By the way, I found this in the person of Xizuo sent by Dan Li..."
Chi Zhaoyue took out a secret letter he found on the body of the killed Xizuo from his personal purse.
The content of the letter is not much, the handwriting is sloppy, but the letter paper and the scent of the letter paper... have some clues.
As soon as Wen Yuan received the secret letter, he understood Chi Zhaoyue's intention, "This letter paper is stained with the pine scent that is only used by powerful people in the Dragon Kingdom..."
This pine scent comes from the snow-capped pine trees. The specially cultivated pine trees on the top of the 10,000-meter-high snow-capped mountains can collect a pound of rosin oil in a year.
Direct combustion of this grease will produce smoke that has a soothing effect. Put the robes smoked with this smoke into the cabinet, and the fragrance will last all year round.
It can also be made into a smooth balm, which can make the skin firm and tender. Only the queen mother in the harem can use it. The other concubines will not get a box of rewards even if they are favored.
"I remember that this year's Songshenxiang, apart from what the Queen Mother and Queen get every year, the Emperor only gave it to my father and Duke Jingguo Wang Yang."
But the Wang family has been noble for generations and has little contact with the Dingnan Palace... There are many doubts about this, and Wen Yuan has no clue yet.
She touched the delicate white letter paper in her hand and said, "This paper is Jiangnan paper made this year. It was just presented to the emperor for use... Why is it here?"
These things all indicate that the person who wrote the letter is a powerful person, but Wen Yuan really can't figure out which powerful person, but after all, it is a good thing, and all its whereabouts will be registered, so he is not afraid of not being able to find out this duplicitous person in Long Kingdom.
"I will keep this letter for now. When I return to Long Kingdom, I will slowly settle the accounts with these people." Wen Yuan was exhausted and almost fainted.
Wen Yuan held on to the table and stood still, "I'm tired today. Ah Yue, please go out first. By the way, tell Chun Hua that I won't eat... You and her can eat."
In order to ensure Wen Yuan's safety, Chi Zhaoyue still checked her pulse before letting her rest. "The pulse is stable, go to sleep."
Just now I was worried that her old injury had recurred, but now it seems that it is healing very well.
After Chi Zhaoyue left, Wen Yuan felt dizzy while sitting by the bed. Before he fell into coma, he only saw a black figure...
"Oh, I've only been away for a while, why do I make myself so haggard again?"
After Chi Zhaoyue left, Quan returned to the dormitory and fed Wen Yuan one of the pills he had refined.
He also kneaded the elixir he gave to Wen Yuan into pills with demonic power, so that it would be easier for her to eat.
Wen Yuan woke up again, it was already midnight, "Note?" The note on the pillow was left for her by Quan before he left, and it stated the time to take the medicine.
"It's better to roll it into pills like this. How stupid." Wen Yuan put down the note in his hand, picked up one and put it into his mouth.
"Eh! It's so bitter!" She was so bitter that all the features on her face wrinkled together, "Why don't you know how to knead it sweeter..." Who can eat this bitter food?
After taking the medicine, Wen Yuan leaned on the soft pillow and read a book, "Miss, are you awake? Are you hungry? I made snacks, eat some!" Chunhua knocked on the door outside the hall, holding a hand specially made for Wen Yuan Made pastries.
"Come in." Wen Yuan looked at the exquisite pastries and drooled with greed, "I want to drink milk..."
These pastries were so delicious that she couldn't choke to death, but today she didn't want to just have some snacks with tea.
"Miss, Keqi camels have a lot of milk...it's hard to find milk."
"Then let's use camel milk." After drinking too much before, it didn't feel so hard to accept. I thought it would have a special taste when paired with these snacks.
Chunhua was overjoyed to see her willing to eat, and hurriedly went out to find camel milk for Wen Yuan, "Princess wants to drink camel milk, please go and bring some."
When the maid Keqi who was guarding outside the palace heard that Wen Yuan was awake and could eat, she was even more excited than Chunhua, "Let's go now!"
He said he was going right away... but he was actually running to inform Shanlu Khan.
