Chapter 10 The Palace

The dazzling sunshine came into view.

Shifang slowly opened his eyes, but felt a pain in his head and weak all over his body.

"Are you awake?"

In the eyes, Cherry's happy smile appeared in front of her. Shifang smiled. Cherry helped Shifang sit up, picked up a bowl of soup from the table, and fed it to Shifang with a spoon: "This is the ginseng soup made for you by Miss Fang, but she is embarrassed to feed you, so... let me feed you."

Shifang was grateful. Since he was a child, he had been accompanied by the master Tiancong. He had never enjoyed such gentle and careful consideration and care. He took a deep breath, suppressed his grateful mood, smiled and drank it.

As he spoke, the door was pushed open with a squeak. A beautiful woman in a light green dress entered the room with a new pair of clothes and trousers.

"Actually, my real name is Fang Chuchu. Because I walked alone in the world, I was afraid of some trouble, so I turned into a man's costume."

It turned out that Fang Chuchu changed back to women's clothing, with a light green long skirt, black and long hair, a beautiful face and clear eyes. Fang Chuchu's face was blushed by cherry and Shifang.

Shifang found that it was a little impolite to stare at others like this. He smiled and said, "Thank you, Miss Fang, for spending a lot of money."

Fang Chuchu smiled and said, "It's Sister Taoer paid for it. I'm just running errands. I should thank Sister Taoer."

Cherry slapped her forehead and said with a smile, "Look at you, you look like a woman."

The three of them looked at each other and smiled.

Fang Chuchu said, "The prince wanted to invite us to the banquet today, but when he heard that the prince was injured, he said that he would invite us when the injury was healed, and specially told the prince to convey it to him if he needed anything."

Shi Fang was stunned: "Why does the prince come to us? Cherry, shall we go?"

Cherry put one hand against her cheek and meditated, but Fang Chuchu looked at the cherry expectantly. Cherry curled her lips and said, "Let's talk about it then, Shifang, what do you think this is?" With that, he took out a storage bag from his arms with a smile.

Shifang touched that the storage bag on his body was still there. Cherry smiled and said, "Guess where this came from?"

Shifang thought for a moment and said, "Did you find it from Sanbao Taoist?"

Cherry smiled and said, "You are still smart. There are two pieces of low-grade crystals in this storage bag, a rune fairy book, a brush, a box of cinnabar, three blank rune paper, and the sword of the Sanbao Taoist. Sister Fang Chu also has a share in it, so give her this low-grade crystal?"

Shifang naturally paid attention to it. Fang Chuchu smiled shyly and said, "That little sister is so ungrateful."

This is a separate courtyard of the King of Huainan. It is located in a green mountain on the outskirts of Huainan Prefecture, surrounded by green willows and wild flowers. There is also a small river in front of the mountain, which is really a good place.

The king of Huainan also arranged servants and maids for the three to take good care of them. Fang Chuchu didn't know why the king of Huainan took care of the three people like this. Anyway, Shifang was injured, and the three of them were relieved to recover from their injuries.

For three meals a day, Chu Chuchu didn't need to cook for the cherries and Shifang in person. In the morning and afternoon, he studied the Fu Lv Xianshu, which was obtained from the Sanbao Taoist. After dinner, he walked out of the courtyard, sat by the Qingshan River, and looked at the beautiful sunset and the brilliant starry sky.

The Rune Fairy Book is the most basic rune making method in the monition world. It records hundreds of rune production methods. According to the above method, the cherry used the brush stained with cinnabar on three blank rune paper to make a lightning charm, amulet and a divine charm. Fang Chuchu has used up two pieces of low-grade crystals, and her cultivation has reached the third layer of the condensation period, which makes her very happy.

After dinner that day, the three of them went out for a walk and sat on the bank of the river, watching the reflection of the sunset reflected in the water, with colorful clouds and green mountains and green willows on both sides.

"Let's go to Kunlun Mountain with Shifang and us." Cherry took Fang Chuchu's hand beside her and said.

Fang Chuchu smiled bitterly, looked at the distant mountain, and was silent for a moment: "I... I'm not as careless as you. My mother is still at home waiting for me to go back."

Shifang said, "So you came out to play this time?"

Fang Chuchu squeezed his lips, thought for a moment, took Cherry's hand and said, "Do you regard me as a friend?"

Cherry smiled and said, "Of course."

Before Fang Chuchu could speak, she shed tears. Cherry and Shifang didn't know why she was suddenly sad. Cherry said softly, "Chu, what's wrong with you? Did anyone bully you?"

Fang Chuchu shook his head and said, "If someone bullies you, I will help you vent my anger with Cherry."

Fang Chuchu smiled with tears and whispered, "My mother has a very serious illness. I want to use the 'Spring Wind and Rain Heart Method' to treat her, but... but my cultivation is too low..."

Cherry said, "What should I do?"

Fang Chuchu said, "It is said that the father of the king of Huainan once got a piece of top-grade crystal as a gift from the immortal. If I can get it, I can use it to improve my cultivation. This time, the prince may ask us to ask for something else. I think I may take the opportunity to get that crystal." Fang Chuchu paused and said shyly, "It's just... there is only one crystal, I..."

Shifang thought for a moment and took out the small 'jade pendant' absorbed by himself and said, "I have a top-grade crystal here. Why don't you use it first?"

Fang Chuchu saw that the 'jade pendant' was indeed a top-grade crystal and hurriedly shook his head and said, "I can't have this. This is too precious."

Cherry handed the jade pendant from Shifang to Fang Chuchu and said, "The most important thing is to treat my aunt. You can stay."

Fang Chuchu hesitated, with tears in his eyes. He took the 'jade pendant' and said, "If you can get the prince's top-grade crystal, you two will stay."

Shifang and Cherry nodded with a smile.

The king of Huainan sent people to greet him every day. In the afternoon, when he learned that the wounds of Shifang had finally healed, he was invited to the Huainan Palace for a banquet.

The three of them took the incense car arranged by the king of Huainan. An official opened the way and arrived at the Huainan Palace for a moment.

Entering the Huainan Palace, the three of them saw the style of a rich family. The red gate, the mighty stone lions on both sides, entered the gate and was greeted by a housekeeper. He took the three people along the bluestone path, passed through the rockery and the clear spring, bypassed the layers of corridors, passed through several moon gates, and came to the back garden.

The back garden is very large, with towering ancient trees, strange rocks, surrounded by mountains and water, pavilions and pavilions, and corridors. The three of them followed the housekeeper to a stone pavilion along the flower path. Li Jingtian, the king of Huainan, was sitting in the pavilion. When he saw the three people, he got up and said, "Are the three immortals coming? Ha ha, how is the little brother's injury? Let the king be thinking about it."

The three of them saluted the prince and said, "The little man's injury has healed."

Li Jingtian laughed and said, "That's good. Come on, go to Shiting to taste our Huainanfu special snacks."

There are stone tables and chairs in the stone pavilion. There are several dishes on the table, four jade cups, a pot of fragrant tea, and a servant is filled with tea. The king of Huainan said respectfully: "The king of Japan held a fighting meeting in order to meet moral masters. However, although the Taoist man's power is strong, his conduct is a little not flattering. Later, I listened to it. It's really gratifying to say that you three young heroes walked for heaven and destroyed the thief and Taoist, which made me ashamed. Obviously, there was a master in front of me, but I didn't recognize it.

The three of them said that they didn't dare. The king of Huainan laughed and talked with the three of them for a long time. In ancient and modern times, at home and abroad, astronomy and geography, poetry and songs, these only ten directions were taught by Zen Master Tiancong with all his heart and could talk with Li Jingtian. Cherry and Fang Chuchu knew nothing about it, but they were also very interesting to hear.

Li Jingtian is very talkative. He tasted tea and chatted with the three people. The two hours also made people feel bored. They didn't feel bored. Li Jingtian had some understanding of the three teenagers and said, "The three young heroes are not only profound cultivation, but also have both morality and talent. I really admire them." After saying that, he sighed.

Shi Fangzheng chatted happily with Li Jingtian. Seeing that he suddenly sighed, he asked, "Why did the prince sigh?"

Li Jingtian sighed again, took a sip of tea, and said, "I have a difficulty, but no one can solve my worries for me. Today, as soon as I see you three, I want to tell you, but this matter..."

Fang Chuchu said, "Please tell me what's going on, my lord. We won't reveal it."

Li Jingtian looked at Fang Chuchu with a smile and thought that the child was very sensible, so he said what was entangled in his heart.

It turned out that Li Jingtian got married when he was 20 years old and married with Feng Yun, the palm pearl of Jia Feng Delai in Huainan Prefecture. The two loved each other very much and helped each other. They were originally a fairy couple that everyone envied, but it seemed that God was jealous of the beautiful woman. Three years after they got married, Feng Yun died of an urgent illness.

For this reason, Li Jingtian was extremely sad. Two years later, his mother persuaded him to continue another room. Tian Rui, the daughter of the Tian Yuan family in the city, is the current princess. Less than half a year after the two got married, strange things began to happen.

First, there was always the sound of crying in the royal palace in the middle of the night, but I couldn't find who was crying in the royal palace. The cry was ethereal and creepy. Later, Tian Rui claimed that she saw a ghost in the middle of the night, which caused a serious illness. So far, she has been bedridden. She doesn't think about tea and food every day, is getting thinner and thinner, and her mental condition is also poor. No matter day or night, there are ghosts in their mouths.

Moreover, in Tian Rui's bedroom, bedding, curtains, etc. are often drifting without wind, and tea bowls, hanging paintings, etc. always fall by themselves for no reason, so even the servants dare not serve her. Li Jingtian is afraid that saying this will damage the image of the royal palace, so he ordered the servants not to reveal it, but for a long time, but after all, there is no impervious wall, I don't know who is through. The leaked news is now widely spread throughout Huainan Prefecture, and Tian Rui's condition is becoming more and more serious now. Li Jingtian had to make this best to hold a fighting party, hoping to find a master to help exorcise ghosts.
