A Lady’s Tranquility - Chapter 225
A ladle of cold water splashed on her face, Jiang Xuening finally woke up.
There was a faint choking smell in the throat and nose.
She coughed two times, and when she wanted to reach out and cover her mouth, she found that her hands were tied behind her, tied to a column with a foot in diameter. The rope was rough and tied too tightly. It had worn through the skin between her wrists, leaving several deep and shallow red marks.
Drops of water fell from her long thick eyelashes, blocking her sight.
She blinked hard, and then her eyes became clear.
In a humble room with wooden windows, wooden floors and dark doors, there was a raised head table in front of her. On one side of the tea table, a white haired Taoist wearing a blue gray Taoist robe sat on a chair with brocade cushions beside, looking up and down at her.
Then he threw the bucket back to the old one and woke up.
Jiang Xuening finally remembered.
Several days have passed since she was arrested. The other party and a group of masked people suddenly ran out of the forest. The speed was so fast that she didn’t have time to shout. Then she was covered by a towel stained with choking medicine from the rear and fainted in a moment. I woke up several times on the way. I was in the carriage. I was awakened by these people and asked her to eat something. Can be very strict, often just finished eating will be her again.
The whole person was in a daze.
When she woke up, she shook her head as if she were shaking the paste.
But when she saw the old man, she suddenly woke up –
not only because she had never seen the old man.
What’s more, I woke up not in the carriage, but in a room and tied myself to a log post. I think I’m going to interrogate her?
Although the old man also wore Taoist robes, he was different from Xie Juan.
Xie Juan’s Taoist robes are used to be worn by scholars and hermits in the secular world. Although they are improved according to the shape of Taoist robes in Taoist temples, they are never embroidered with Tai Chi or eight trigrams. The old man was wearing a Bagua pattern at the bottom of his sleeve, and his hair was tied in a bun on the top. He was tall and thin, with prominent cheekbones on both sides of his cheek, slightly concave eye sockets, and his eyes were pure and introverted. If it wasn’t for the faint evil spirit on his face and the gray beard, he would be a bit of an expert and a true immortal.
He has a long fingernail on his little finger.
But there are too many wrinkles on the face.
A delicate young woman, looking at her age of two or eight, was wearing a pomegranate red gauze skirt. She didn’t know whether it was intentional or not. Her clothes were slightly disordered and her chest was open, revealing the whole neck and one side of the fragrant shoulder. She just knelt down at the old man’s feet and gently beat her legs for him.
The old man’s hand slid down her neck.
Close to her delicate skin, she gently put it on her back neck, and then put it on the back of her hand. Unexpectedly, she used this young girl as a heater!
Jiang Xuening’s eyelids jumped.
But the old man’s eyes stopped on her, carefully looked at her subtle expression, and saw that although she was awakened by cold water from the power of the overpowering drug, she only looked around, not flustered, and could not help saying: “the little girl is very calm, and deserves to be watched by him.”
Jiang Xuening didn’t know who he was.
But if you look around, there are people with swords and swords inside and outside, and there are many people wearing regular clothes and Taoist robes. But the old man is the only one sitting alone, and the little beauty is beating her legs. You don’t need to know that it’s time to start this scene.
What’s the matter with her?
At the moment, he only said: Zunjia sent out so many people and spent so much effort to arrest me. Besides tying me up, he didn’t fight or kill me. It must be that I have great use value. In that case, what’s the use of worrying about your life? ”
The old man gave a smile and said, “yes, I know you well. I’ve been practicing Taoism for many years, and I’ve forgotten my worldly name. My name is wan Xiu Zi, and I can also be called Zhen Yi Taoist. This time, I have taken a lot of trouble to invite Miss Jiang Er to be my guest. The children under my hand are indifferent. If there is any neglect on the way, please ask Miss Haihan. ”
Wan Xiuzi!
True Taoist
Although the heart has been prepared, but really when the name sounded in the ear, Jiang Xuening or a chill in the bottom of his heart.
Wan Xiuzi said, “isn’t that surprising?”
Jiang Xuening said: “if you’re not wrong, it should be your hand that Taian mansion in Shandong Province was attacked last year. It just didn’t work that time. There’s no reason to guard against thieves in a thousand days. It’s hard to guard against them. It’s not surprising that the Taoist priest is scheming and waiting for an opportunity to succeed. ”
Wan shuzidun said with a smile: “good, good!”
Jiang Xuening has heard of this man.
Although I have never seen him before, and I don’t know what will happen to him in the end, but more than 20 years ago, he united with the Pingnan King party to invade the capital and killed half of the capital. Even the royal family was almost destroyed, which can be regarded as a brilliant stroke in the history of treason.
The court hated him to the bone.However, the Tianjiao sect is very powerful in the south. Since the defeat of that year, Wan Xiuzi has rarely appeared in front of others. He only manipulates the followers through his own confidants. He has no choice but to show up. His whereabouts are very secret.
So even if the government strangled many times, there was no gain.
For a moment, she was not particularly able to figure out why the other party had arrested her, so she did not dare to answer easily.
However, the girl kneeling down to beat Wan Xiuzi’s leg heard that Wan Xiuzi was so kind to Jiang Xuening. She turned her head and turned to Wan Xiuzi with her chest more and more pitifully. Her voice was so soft that it made people feel goosebumps: “teacher, it’s getting late today. Don’t you agree with elixir? I’ve been here for a long time… ”
Wan Xiuzi looked down at her.
The young woman then took out a pill of purple red from her arms and handed it to him. This pill is made with a lot of effort. It’s what Wan Xiuzi takes everyday. As for its effectiveness
Wan Xiuzi also touched the woman’s face, then took out the small pill and took it in his mouth.
Jiang Xuening watched, vaguely aware of the relationship between the two people, see a burst of chilly.
Wan Xiuzi was a little ruddy after taking the pill. He only touched the young woman’s chest and neck. At last, he pinched her jaw, raised her face and looked at Jiang Xuening again. It seemed that he was comparing something.
The woman was very sour: “isn’t slave pretty?”
Wan Xiuzi was still well at first, but after this sentence, his face became gloomy for a moment. He pinched the woman’s jaw and pushed it back. He said coldly, “you deserve to compete with her, too?”
The woman was so wronged that she burst into tears.
Wan Xiuzi seemed to have an attack, but looking at her pitiful appearance, he gently patted her on the cheek, as if he were treating a plaything. Suddenly, he returned to the previous plain tone, and said: “dujun broke the rule, I think she is much better than you.”
The woman clenched her lips, but for a moment she looked at Jiang Xuening. It seemed that she couldn’t believe it, and even had a stronger jealousy than before.
All of a sudden, even those around them, there was some noise.
All around eyes seem to fall on Jiang Xuening suddenly.
There are surprises, there are explorations, there are miracles.
Jiang Xuening is not very good. It’s not that he has never seen the world. He is frightened by this small scene. He thinks that these people’s eyes are different from before. It seems that they are looking at someone they have never seen before.
After listening carefully, it was said vaguely that “Mr. dujun has also found someone to practice” and “this woman is very good at it”
“Dujun” mentioned in their words
The name Jiang Xuening is impressive. At the beginning of the battle of Tongzhou, Zhang Zha joined the Tianjiao in the name of “dujun mountain people”! Now, Wan Xiuzi even said, is Du Jun in love with her?
Her face turned a little pale under the sudden turn of her heart.
Wan Xiuzi saw this in his eyes.
He suddenly realized something, and his white eyes slowly turned around: “don’t you know the identity of Du Jun?”
Jiang Xuening’s heart jumped.
Without Wan Xiuzi, she would not have understood.
However, with the addition of this sentence, a flash of lightning in her mind almost made her shiver, and the answer that no one would dare to believe even if she said it appeared in her heart –
Xie Juan!
Wan Xiuzi felt like he was interested. He pulled the young girl and rubbed her up and down. Her abdomen was stiff, but she didn’t seem to be moved. When he mentioned the word “dujun”, he gradually remembered the past 20 years.
He gave a cold hum.
When he spoke, he sighed a little: “for many years, I thought I would do good for heaven, but I didn’t want to lead wolves into the house and raise tigers for trouble. It’s not that I can’t bear the Qi, but although I’m still in good health, I can control my daughter at night and adjust Yin and Yang. I think it’s the way to cultivate. But I’m easy to get old and have a long life. If I don’t do anything again, I’m afraid I’ll make a wedding dress for Xie. I didn’t expect that God had the virtue to help me. He wanted him to show such a big flaw for being misjudged by women! Is there any reason why I don’t accept it? ”
Jiang Xuening vaguely heard something: originally, she was arrested to deal with Xie Juan.
The young girl groaned under Wan Xiuzi’s hand.
Wan Xiuzi was just like an object to her. Although he played with it, he didn’t show any sympathy. It was creepy to see it.
He even gave a laugh.
Only way: “I day religion is Taoism orthodox, when light desire.”. It’s just that not touching the mat can’t be regarded as cultivation. Only by harmonizing male Yang and female Yin, separating body and mind, blending body and mind, and not disturbing their nature, can we achieve “Tao”. I thought he had Huigen. I asked Gongyi to find some clean ones and put them on his bed for him to practice. I was thinking, “the lonely sun doesn’t last long.” after all, the place where women live is a ghost cave and a hero tomb. If you don’t practice early, you’ll see some Genie when it’s urgent. If you can’t move your lower body, you’ll miss things. Unexpectedly, he would not appreciate it. ”
At this point, Wan Xiuzi’s application has become a bit pleasant.Especially when he looked at Jiang Xuening, he was a little satisfied.
It’s rare for him to have such a happy time in the past two years, especially when he catches Xie Wei’s weakness and just waits for others to fall into the trap. The whole person relaxes a lot: “hum, over the years, I know that he’s restless, and it seems that he doesn’t pay attention to my teaching in the capital. However, he has been careful in his actions, and he has to deal with some of his cronies. He is also cold-blooded, and can’t find any flaws. It’s a pity that he didn’t pay attention at first, but now he’s dead. Such a powerful person, after all, did not escape a “love” word, planted in women. God helps me. He wants me to go to Dabao and dominate the world! ”
Jiang Xuening’s face was a little worse when he heard the old dirty words.
When you think of yourself in prison, but you don’t know how much trouble you’re going to bring to Xie Wei, Yan Lin and others, you can’t laugh.
Wan Xiuzi, however, seemed to be on purpose, and then asked, “he didn’t fight back even if he was stabbed by you. It must be that you accompany him to practice, isn’t it interesting?”
“Cultivation”
The corner of Jiang Xuening’s eye slightly drew to draw, only when didn’t hear.
Instead, he said, “there are alchemists in the palace who use mercury to make pills and serve the emperor, which can make people return to their youth. If the head teacher is worried that he will soon be old, he can have a try. ”
“Ha ha ha ha…”
Wan Xiuzi even raised his head and laughed. He was not moved by her words.
“The dog emperor got the pill offered by the evil Fang Shijin, and his life will not be long! Little girl, do you think I don’t know mercury is poisonous? Warming is the way to nourish the family. If you want to see me die suddenly after taking pills, I’m afraid it’s impossible. ”
Jiang Xuening
The cult leaders who are engaged in health preservation are full of mercury pills. There is a clear stream in fangshili.
She was really convinced.
Wan Xiuzi took a look at the dim sky outside and said, “there are not two hours left. If Du Jun doesn’t come…”
He looked back at Jiang Xuening.
Jiang Xuening scolded in her heart. After thinking about Xie Juan, she didn’t even bother to turn her eyes on him. She just said, “don’t worry, Xie Juan will definitely come, but he won’t come alone. If I were the head teacher, I would have time to pack up and run. ”
Wan Xiuzi’s pupils shrank slightly, as if he was thinking about her words.
After a while, hey ran a smile, gloomy way: “I also want to see.”
They didn’t talk any more.
Although Jiang Xuening said that, it was only based on her understanding of Xie Wei in her previous life and her intersection with Xie Wei in this life. She had seen what that man was like when he was mad. It’s not impossible to really go into the tiger’s den alone.
But then he fell into a trap.
Not only can not save her, but also make them into a general predicament.
She prayed in her heart that Xie Juan would not appear.
In this way, no one was seen at the beginning of Zishi.
Wan Xiuzi’s face is getting worse and worse.
Seeing that the sound of the third quarter of Zishi was about to ring, a sudden sound of footsteps was heard outside. A Taoist boy bowed his head outside the door and reported: “Qi Zhi Shou, Mr. Du Jun, please see you outside the branch rudder! There was no change in the army of Xinzhou, and no one followed along the way. It was true that they returned to religion alone! “
