The manor was hidden in the golden yellow afternoon. The lush and verdant forest made it seem somewhat hot and stuffy. Accompanied by the sounds of the insects and the sounds of the birds, the sunset glow could be seen.
When Bai Zhixi regained his senses, he saw a bed beam carved with noble purple sandalwood. The curtains of the two bundles of muslin fluttered in the wind. There was a fine blue and white porcelain vase on the table. Inside the vase, there were a few bouquets of osmanthus flowers. The fragrance of the flowers covered the room with a faint medicinal fragrance.
”Miss, you're awake!”
Suddenly, a cool breeze blew across his face, and Hong Dan walked in with a porcelain bowl filled with a strong medicinal smell.
”Hong Dan, how many days did I sleep?”
Her mind was blank. She could only remember that she had slept for a very long time. If it weren't for the fragrance of the osmanthus flowers, she would still be sleeping in her nightmare.
”Miss, you slept for five whole days. He did not expect that the Hundred Day Fragrance Gu was so tenacious. This servant had spent a few days to dispel it, but it was only able to dissolve the tip of the iceberg. It truly was unbreakable. But Miss, don't worry. This servant will definitely remove the poison Gu. ”
Hong Dan placed the porcelain bowl on the table, covered the door tightly and rushed over to check Bai Zhixi's pulse.
”Hong Dan, you recognize this Gu? You even know the solution? ”
Bai Zhixi frowned, a look of astonishment flashed past her eyes, then she looked at Hong Dan warily.
According to her knowledge, the Hundred Day Ruins was the poison of the seven families' Miao Jiang family.
Back then, because of a misunderstanding between the Phoenixis Maiden and the descendant of the Phoenixis Maiden, the Holy Maiden was so angry that he used an incantation to refine the Gu and specially deal with the Phoenixis Maiden.
Even the blood bead in his body could not cure the poison Gu, so what kind of person was Hong Dan?
”Miss, I'll tell you the truth. Ever since this servant can remember, on the eighth day of every month, there would be a mysterious girl looking for this servant. She told me to learn Gu arts from her. I didn't like it at first, but she told me that if I wanted to be with you, I had to have skill. Seeing that she had no ill intentions, this servant decided to learn from her privately. Please forgive me, Miss. ”
After Hong Dan finished speaking, he was about to kneel on the ground and beg for forgiveness, but he was pulled up just in time by Bai Zhixi.
”Hong Dan, when did the young miss say I would punish you?”
Bai Zhixi leisurely looked at her, and purposefully flicked Hong Dan's forehead in anger, and then said indifferently:
”Hong Dan, you have clearly seen that woman's appearance.”
What kind of person would be teaching in the middle of the night?
”Miss, this servant only knows that she is a woman. And she seems to know you very well. She often told me that I must be loyal to you and not be rebellious. A year ago, she told me that the leaves had fallen and Miao Jiang looked forward to returning. She never appeared at my side again. A few months ago, she suddenly left a letter, which said: ”October gold changes, Miao Jiang Mansion beautiful women look forward to.” She also said you must know what that means. ”
Hong Dan revealed what had happened while wringing his handkerchief. Her straightforward appearance had told her that the woman's appearance was definitely not a coincidence, or that it had something to do with her identity.
She had lost both her parents, and was saved by the elder of the Plum Shadow Palace. Then, she was saved by Bai Zhixi, but the girl stayed by her side.
She remembered asking why she had chosen her.
The girl only said that she was naturally intelligent and was fated with Gu, and was a rare genius at using Gu.
”Beauty Panpan? Hong Dan, do you know where your home is? ”
Hearing that, Hong Dan shook her head violently. Her memories of her childhood were completely blank, her only memories were of the Plum Shadow Palace.
Seeing that, Bai Zhixi's simple hand gently touched the table, her misty eyes suddenly shot out a ray of light.
If his guess was right, Hong Dan was the descendant of one of the seven great families, Miao Yue, and he was most likely Holy Maiden.
And Hong Dan had been taken away by the Plum Shadow Palace since young, all for the sake of helping her conquer the world.
The remaining six little maidservant s were definitely members of the seven great families, but they had no idea where the rest of them lived.
Her mother had told her that after sealing Hua Wuxie, she had given the Profound Qin of the Phoenix Zither to the seven great families for safekeeping while the zither hid itself in the palace.
The zither she had played at the Plum Shadow Palace that day was actually not the Phoenix Zither, but looked exactly the same as the Phoenix Zither, in order to trick the attention of others.
But to seal Hua Wuxie, the Phoenix Zither was indispensable.
”Hong Dan, have you thought about who you are?”
After confirming that Hong Dan was the successor of the seven great families, Bai Zhixi was wild with joy as he stared at Hong Dan with fiery eyes.
”Miss, actually, after I received my master's letter, I had already guessed it. It's just that I was afraid that my master would harm you, so I didn't dare to tell you. Originally, I only wanted to tell you after I've decided on it, but I didn't expect the Queen Ye to give you a hundred days of sunset. It was not that there was no cure for the poison, it was just that he had to go to Miao Jiang to get the Gu heart and the Holy Maiden blood to cure it. Only, I don't know if they will give me a Gu heart. ”
Hong Dan's happy face instantly darkened, his eyes revealing a look of worry.
She had heard about the situation of Miao Jiang over the years. She was a descendant of a wandering Holy Maiden, how could those people easily hand over their Gu hearts?
”When a car arrives at the mountain, there will be a road ahead of it. Hong Dan, we have more important things to do at Miao Yu. ”
It was said in the martial world that Miao Jiang had been in a state of chaos during the last few years. All the elders were fighting to the death for the position of the Family Patriarch.
The road to the Zither Profound Realm was definitely difficult and dangerous, but she had to go through thick and thin in order to fulfill her mother's final wish.
As the sun set in the west, a slightly chilly breeze blew past the Secret Manor, startling the leaves that had fallen elegantly dancing in Bai Zhixi's courtyard.
Just as the dinner was set up, Jun Mohan returned with dust all over his face, and directly went to Bai Zhixi's courtyard to eat.
