Chapter 689 The scary thing is the human heart

With a plant? Bai Ruozhu was stunned for a moment, and Jiang Yichun next to him replied in a deep voice: "Bamboo."

The child said with a smile: "It's you, I didn't run away in vain. This is the river lantern that grandpa asked me to give you." As he said that, he put a wrinkled river lantern into Bai Ruozhu's hand, and then didn't He smiled shyly and said, "It was too crowded outside just now, so it was squashed. I don't know if it can be released."

Bai Ruozhu thought that she never wanted to put out river lanterns again in her life.

"Little brother, where is the grandpa you mentioned? When did you see him?" Jiang Yichun asked hurriedly.

"I came here the day before yesterday. He lives in an alley not far from my house. He gave me a lot of candies and said that if I go to the inn in the next two days and find a beautiful sister with children, she will buy me more candies. But I haven't seen him in the past few days, he has probably moved away." The child said and looked at Bai Ruozhu, his eyes shining with hope.

Bai Ruozhu couldn't help laughing. There were some wrapped snacks in her room. She stuffed them directly into the child's hands, then gave him another ten taels of silver and told him: "This silver can buy a lot of candies. Don’t be deceived, give it to your parents and let them buy it for you.”

The child jumped up happily, and then jumped away.

After the child walked away, Jiang Yichun hurriedly closed the door, and then carefully dismantled the river lantern. Soon he saw a line of small words written on the thick base of the river lantern.

"It's not difficult to remove the poison. Feed me the poison that I gave you last time. If it's not enough, let it devour other poisons. If it's strong enough, it can help your son remove the poison. "

Bai Ruozhu also saw that line of small words, and asked a little dumbfounded: "Is it that simple?"

Jiang Yichun also couldn't believe it, and after a while he said: "It seems that Old Man Shou Gu has given you a big treasure."

"Stop talking nonsense, do you have that poison with you?" Bai Ruozhu laughed, and the heavy stone that had been weighing on her heart for many days was suddenly pushed away. She also saw the hope of undoing the poison for her son.

Jiang Yichun hurriedly took out a small porcelain bottle from his arms and said: "Bring it with you. The old man Shou Gu taught me how to draw it out of the body last time. I brought it with me this time. I originally wanted to give it to him, but I didn't want to." This thing also has such uses.

Bai Ruozhu took the vial and told the little fur ball with her mind to let it eat the Gu worm. The little fur ball jumped out with a swish and lay on Bai Ruozhu's shoulder. Her little eyes were bright and she was obviously greedy. It doesn’t look like it’s going to work.

She carefully opened the cork of the bottle, and the scene where the Gu worm suddenly appeared on Jiang Yichun made her feel a little shadowy.

Unexpectedly, the little fur ball was so fast, an afterimage flashed by, and it got into the bottle. Then the bottle shook slightly, probably because two Gu insects were fighting.

Bai Ruozhu silently cheered for the little fur ball in her heart, but did not dare to look from the mouth of the bottle. After a while, it became quiet, and she took a careful look and found that there was only one worm in the bottle, the little fur ball, but the little fur ball looked lazy. Yangyang came out of the bottle and went directly back into the jade bottle that Old Man Shou Gu gave to Bai Ruozhu, and then never came out again.

"This, do you have to wait for it to digest?" Bai Ruozhu asked with wide eyes.

Jiang Yichun didn't know much about Gu insects, so he thought for a moment and said, "Perhaps when it comes out again, it will be able to cure the poison. It's probably like us people who have reached a certain level of internal strength and want to advance."

Bai Ruozhu felt relieved now, but she didn't know how long Xiao Maoqiu would have to rest, but the two of them obviously didn't need to stay in Linchuan City any longer, so they agreed that it would be better to leave early and return to Beiyu City.

Someone outside still told them to get out of Linchuan City. The two of them were very helpless. They packed up their gifts and said goodbye to the shopkeeper. The shopkeeper said that he had received thirty taels of silver from them before, so there was no need to give the rest. Considered a profiteer.

When the two of them left the inn, the people shouting outside became even more noisy, and some people threw things at them. Jiang Yichun and the guards protected Bai Ruozhu and her son and sent them to the car.

When Jiang Yichun got into the car, there was already a vegetable leaf hanging in his hair. Bai Ruozhu couldn't help laughing and said, "This is the first time I have seen you so miserable."

Jiang Yichun took off the vegetable leaves from his head and threw them out of the car angrily. He glared at Bai Ruozhu and said, "Those are ordinary people. It's not good for me to beat them, otherwise..." He almost bit the back of the leaf. Tooth Cao said it, but he didn't take any action, which shows that he is really not a violent person.

The carriage quickly headed out of the city. Without the shouts of those people, it became much quieter for a while. It was easy to fall asleep while pedaling on the swaying carriage.

At this time, someone suddenly stopped the carriage outside. The driver was afraid of hitting someone, so he hurriedly stopped the horse.

Jiang Yichun frowned and asked, "What's going on?"

The coachman was also a trainee. He said in a deep voice: "It was a father and daughter who stopped the carriage. The girl seemed to be the little girl that Madam rescued from the river."

Bai Ruozhu couldn't help but look out after hearing this. It was really the little girl Yu'er she rescued. Now the little girl has recovered, but her face is a little pale, but she can vaguely see that her eyebrows are very beautiful, and she will definitely be a beauty in the future.

Jiang Yichun got out of the car, looked at the two of them and asked, "Why are you stopping our carriage?"

Yu'er's father hurriedly kowtowed to Jiang Yichun and said, "Please save my daughter. I really have no choice, otherwise she will be forced to death by those people."

At this time, a guard came to Jiang Yichun and whispered, and Bai Ruozhu, with his sharp ears, also picked up the general idea.

"Sir, I have gone to find out. This little girl is engaged to a wealthy businessman in the city. She has a cousin who is two years older than her. I feel that if she dies, I will have the opportunity to marry in her place. In the past, their mother and daughter planned this scene. The person who pushed her into the water that night was her cousin, and the woman who came out crying was her aunt. The woman also had some ability and incited everyone in the city. Get up and drown this little girl."

It turns out that there is such a thing. It seems that what is scary is not superstition, but the human heart.

Bai Ruozhu pursed her lips and began to think. If Deng Deng's situation was uncertain, she would definitely not have the heart to care about other people's affairs. But now that she had confidence in her heart and her mood had improved, she began to sympathize with the poor little girl.

Outside the car, Yu'er's father was already crying and explaining the situation, "Master and Madam are not locals. Please take Yu'er away. Yu'er sold herself to Madam as a maid. She cannot stay in the city and be drowned alive." .”

Bai Ruozhu hugged Deng Deng and got out of the carriage, looked at the father and daughter and asked, "What did the wealthy businessman who got engaged to your daughter say? Did he not come forward to help?"

"What are you helping me with? They just came to cancel the engagement and said they couldn't compete with Lord River God." Yu'er's father said angrily.

Some book friends were complaining when they woke up in the morning, but Muka really completed the promised fifth update yesterday. Didn’t it show up on everyone’s mobile phones? I am a stay-at-home mother, and it is difficult to adjust a lot of the time. For example, when my child wants to go out to play, he will refuse to let me code, and keeps crying. How can I write with peace of mind? Besides, I can stay at home every day, but my child can’t. It will affect his personality and his health. If there are mothers who take care of their children by themselves, they should understand what I am saying. Mouka will do its best to code word updates, and I hope everyone can understand that I am not a big name, I am not a big name, and I cannot afford to be a big name.
