I was in a state of drunkenness and dreaming all day long, when I suddenly heard that the spring was coming and I was climbing a mountain. When I passed the bamboo courtyard, I met a monk and talked to him, so I had half a day's leisure.
The two of them fell asleep and fell asleep in Li Fenglong's weapons store. They lived in darkness, and they didn't know what was going on in the world. Li Fenglong also dug his heart out. On weekdays, he took Litian and Lidi around to sort out the myriad things in Zhiyang and recruit Wang He's old troops; once he got free, he would rush to Xu and Xiao Er In the guest room, chat with them and answer questions with her.
Li Fenglong answered all the confusions Xu Zhuchen had in his mind. However, Xiao Mei's memory was good and bad. I don't know if it was because of excessive use of stones. Sometimes he even had to tell her what happened yesterday. Even the waiter was very tired to deal with, but she was still happy to get along with these two people, and she couldn't persuade them.
Later, the schedule became increasingly tight, and Li Fenglong specially arranged for a confidant named Zhijiao to relieve her boredom. Said to relieve boredom, what he does most on weekdays is answer Xiao Mei's questions.
Sometimes it’s about her life experience, sometimes it’s about asking about her experiences. The second point has been mentioned countless times by Zhijiao. As for the first point, although Zhijiao felt ashamed, he told the truth - all the information that could be found about Xiao Mei showed that Xiao Mei suddenly appeared on a certain day. The scribe of Huayu Academy, her life experience, origin, and the reason for her amnesia cannot be traced back.
"So, I am a 'who-knows-who'." Xiao Mei leaned on the bedside, his eyes distracted, and let Zhijiao change her dressing. "I've been troubling you these days, Zhijiao."
Zhijiao shook his head and said nothing. Xu Zhuchen, who was sitting aside, put down the book in his hand and asked, "That being said, how did you learn A'zhu's name?"
She saw Zhijiao open her mouth in surprise, and couldn't help but laugh: "Zhijiao, you didn't always think that this 'Little Lotus' was the name given by your shopkeeper, right?"
Li Fenglong may seem careless, but in fact he has an extremely meticulous plan. On the surface, he runs a weapons store that is doing poorly, but behind the scenes, he is raising killers and dead men to work for her. Xu Zhuchen asked her, and she told her everything, from the number of people, to the organization, to the management methods, so detailed that Zhuchen couldn't help but suspect that she left herself here to recuperate in order to find a helper who could manage the dead soldiers on her behalf.
"However, those are all people with good internal strength, and they can be regarded as good hands. I didn't let them touch the 'stone'." Li Fenglong refilled the tea for Xu Zhuchen and gently closed the curtains in the room so as not to wake up those who had just arrived. After the debridement, Xiao Mei, who fell into a coma, said, "Why are you staring at me? Do you think I treated Little Lianhua badly? Here, Little Lianhua is a rare wise general. There is no way I can let her charge into battle."
She lowered her voice, her tone was gentle and heavy:
"After Han Ling defected, I have been monitoring his every move. It wasn't until he fled to Clarion City that I discovered the magical power of these stones in the hands of his informants. Little Lianhua has always been knowledgeable and talented, so I let her Help me with my research.
"Every time a person with internal strength comes into contact with a stone, he will always be injured by the internal force, making it difficult to continue research. Without internal strength, it is difficult to use the energy in the stone, which is even more useless. If you go back and forth, you can advance the progress of the experiment. Little Lotus is the only one left. She is the only one willing to continue researching this."
Li Fenglong's fingers gently rested on Xu Zhuchen's shoulders, one by one, slowly tightening: "Little Lotus has forgotten everything, where she came from and where she is going, she only remembers the name 'Xiao Mei' . Zhuchen, she has no memory, is she really the person you are looking for?"
Why not? Xu Zhuchen wanted to refute and tell Li Fenglong that she remembered it, remembered the moments when the two of them got together when they were young, and remembered that she had her own past.
But there was a voice deep in her heart, telling her clearly and firmly that Xiao Mei did not remember.
Xu Zhuchen is the spoiler of this drama. In order for Li Fenglong's plan to proceed smoothly, Xiao Mei must have read her information. How much of the acquaintance with her in person was the sense of familiarity left behind by knowing her life background?
They had been together for nearly a decade, and every day and every night, Xu Zhuchen saw the shadow of the past in Xiao Mei, and lost the shadow of the past. She is indeed Xiao Mei, the Xiao Mei she is most familiar with, and the Xiao Mei she is least familiar with.
Xu Zhuchen lowered his head, and suddenly thought of what Xiao Mei said to her when he woke up.
"I remember you are Zhu Chen."
She laughed softly, brushed aside her snow-white hair, and said to Li Fenglong word by word: "She forgot a lot, but she remembered me."
She didn't see Li Fenglong's expression, but the dry and warm hands squeezed her shoulders and let go.
"I really can't stand it anymore. I'm so tired. Sigh, maybe I'm really old and can't stand the atmosphere of getting along with you little girls." Li Fenglong drank up the scented tea in the cup with a purr and stroked his chest, " It just so happens that Dongfu Street is not peaceful, so I'll give you a girl with a big heart. I won't be here for the next few days."
She stood up and shook out her sleeves. The brocade dress always seemed a little out of place on her strong warrior body.
"That's right." Before turning to go out, Li Fenglong suddenly turned around as if he remembered something, "Zhuchen, if you have time, check the people around you. A few days before you came, I sent an email to all the surrounding towns. 'Banning order'."
Who will wake up first from the big dream? I know myself all my life. The weather was getting hotter and hotter. It was so hot that Xu Zhuchen changed his medicine from once a day to three times a day, but it was still not enough. July has just begun, and if we want to get through the cool autumn days, there will still be some time left.
Xu Zhuchen's physical attributes belong to water and ice, he is calm and solemn, and he is not an impatient person. However, after getting along with Xiao Mei every day, he worries about everything for her. Coupled with Li Fenglong's few words of advice, she wanted to do it herself.
However, Xu Zhuchen is a person who can do something and cannot do anything. Let's just say that Han Ling, Cen Cen, Qin Xin, and Xiao Zhijiao can do this cooking, but Xu Zhuchen can't do it. Even though the presentation is so delicate that it looks like a work of art - Xu Zhuchen's swordsmanship has given her quite superb knife skills - when she actually eats it, the most euphemistic and pleasant comment is "it can be eaten, but it can be eaten seriously".
As for the tasks of sweeping, washing, and serving people, it seems that they are more than capable. Not to mention the several times he broke Xiao Mei's bed plank in order to fix a wooden board, on the first day of July, Xu Zhuchen had to practice swordsmanship with the blind Xiao Mei. That day, everyone saw two snow-white figures under the jasper Tangli flower that had been split into three or four pieces. Li Fenglong said that the two of them would not kneel for two hours and were absolutely not allowed to get up.
Forget about gossiping, in the past nearly a month, Xu Zhuchen's injury was almost recovered, and he began to rehabilitate and practice martial arts, preparing to leave Zhiyang.
Li Fenglong's words and the words of the crazy woman in the cell that day always bothered her. Coupled with the encounter in the wreckage of Huayu Academy, Li Fenglong repeatedly promised that it was definitely not her handiwork, which makes it even more suspicious. After recovering more than half of her life, she began to investigate the whereabouts of the owner of Huayu Academy without telling Xiao Mei. Coincidentally, there was one person in her downline who had a debt dispute with the boss, and soon he gave the name of the place: Yuangong.
