After rebirth, I became the white moonlight of Hunjun

Chapter 40 Bet
  Zhuang Younan's wing was chosen very far away, as if he deliberately wanted to stay away from people like them.

There were unknown flowers growing around the wing. Lin Zhiyu pushed the door open and saw that the room was fully equipped with daily necessities. There were also two or three books scattered on the desk, which did not look like they had been sorted out temporarily.

Zhuang Younan was leaning on the bedside, taking off the hairpins and jewelry, leaving only a plain wooden hairpin on his head, and was leisurely flipping through a book in his hand.

Feeling someone coming in, Zhuang Younan stopped what he was doing, raised his head and met Lin Zhiyu's slightly surprised look. As if he saw her doubts, he explained softly: "Whenever you feel upset, just use If you are not feeling well, please come out and get some fresh air."

Lin Zhiyu caught a glimpse of the half-used pen, ink, paper and inkstone on the table. The ink stick was leaning against the edge of the inkstone, and the black ink slowly flowed down the ink stick.

"Concubine Jia, are you still copying scriptures?"

Only half of the words on the paper were written. Lin Zhiyu lowered his head and read out half of the sentence unconsciously.

"All appearances are false?"

She has never believed in gods and Buddhas.

When she was still in the cold palace, she also prayed devoutly with her hands folded.

But so what? The evil ghost still didn't get what he deserved.

Zhuang Younan stood up slowly and walked slowly towards Lin Zhiyu: "If you see all appearances but no appearance, then you will see the Tathagata."

Lin Zhiyu was even more confused. Zhuang Younan called her here just to say this?
  She didn't understand the scriptures, so she didn't know what it meant.

"Lin Zhiyu, I have always liked you. When I first saw you, I thought you were very different."

Zhuang Younan's voice was very nice, low, with a bit of coldness, but it was different from Lin Minghua's weak voice, it seemed like there was something extra.

Anyone who doesn't know her would have no idea that she comes from a family of military commanders like Jiang Wanning.

"So I'm going to make a bet with you."

"bet?"

Lin Zhiyu repeated it.

She noticed that when Zhuang Younan spoke to her, he did not use "I" but "I".

Is this a psychological method?
  Do you want to get closer to her by changing her title?
  "Yes, bet." Zhuang Younan looked steadily into Lin Zhiyu's eyes.

Lin Zhiyu suddenly laughed, like a joke between sisters: "Since Concubine Jia said she wanted to make a bet with me, what bet? What's the bet?"

"Xu Jiu'er's life."

"what?"

Lin Zhiyu fell silent, and his expression gradually became serious.

In this era, if you are bitten by a five-step snake, you will probably be unable to recover. Xu Jiuer's current situation is just because he was handled in a timely manner and had palace attendants to take care of him, which slowed down the flow of poison in the blood.

Now after listening to Zhuang Younan's words, Lin Zhiyu seemed to see a glimmer of hope.

"I have been dealing with medicinal materials for many years, and I have seen all kinds of weird prescriptions." Zhuang Younan still maintained the smile on his face, but it always made people feel unapproachable. "Many years ago, there was also a person who was five steps away. She was bitten by a snake, but she is still alive and well."

"If you win, I will give you this recipe."

Lin Zhiyu felt that Zhuang Younan was too unpredictable.

She is a modern person with such a high medical level. If she is bitten by a five-step snake, she will face the risk of amputation if not treated in time. In severe cases, she will also die.

Seeing that Lin Zhiyu hesitated and said nothing, Zhuang Younan fiddled with the paper on the desk twice and said, "If you don't want to agree, I won't force you."

"No, I promise."

Zhuang Younan didn't look like he would lie to her, not to mention that Lin Zhiyu felt that she had nothing to be deceived.

"So the bet is made, what do we bet on?"

Zhuang Younan looked mysterious: "You will know when the time comes." "What do you mean? What do you mean you will know when the time comes?" Lin Zhiyu was a little angry. She could afford to wait, but Xu Jiu'er couldn't afford to wait.

But the other party walked straight back to the bed and said coldly: "Bao'er, see you off."

Bao'er came in with a medicine bowl, put the plate down on the table, and then saluted Lin Zhiyu: "Miss, please."

Lin Zhiyu felt that her mind was in a mess and she couldn't sort it out.

Among these people, the person who is least familiar with him is Zhuang Younan.

Now that he suddenly intervenes without any reason, it is inevitable to make people suspicious.

But for Xu Jiuer, she was willing to give it a try.

When he was approaching the wing, Baoer suddenly stopped.

"Young lady may have someone else you want to see, so I won't send them away."

Before Lin Zhiyu could react, Bao'er bowed and turned around to leave.

It seems that I have indeed forgotten something.

She looked around and found that she was standing at a crossroads. To the left was the peach grove on the mountain behind Chengen Temple.

Zhou Zijin!
  Lin Zhiyu slapped his forehead, hurried back to the wing, picked up the chainmail, and hurried over.

Peach forest.

Zhou Zijin saw a woman in a pink palace dress running towards him panting from a distance. He felt relieved, put down the tea cup in his hand, stood up and went to meet her.

"Why are you in such a hurry?" Zhou Zijin habitually picked up the baggage from Lin Zhiyu's hand, but his palm suddenly sank, "Is this what you said you wanted to bring to me?"

"Have a look." Lin Zhiyu's little face turned red and urged Zhou Zijin to open the package.

Zhou Zijin didn't know why, and when he saw what was in the baggage, his face became even more confused.

"This is……?"

"Chain armor, with it, ordinary bows and arrows can't hurt you at all." Lin Zhiyu smiled, and then seemed to remember something, looking a little lonely, "If there is waterproof fabric, maybe I can do it It’s lighter.”

Zhou Zijin's eyes suddenly filled with joy: "There is such a good thing? If it is energy-generating, it would be even better."

"Mass production?" Lin Zhiyu's eyes flashed, "Maybe it is a good thing, but this thing is troublesome to make. Maybe you can try it on your own people first."

Zhou Zijin has his own secret guard, and she knows it.

"This thing is indeed complicated. Did you make it yourself?" Zhou Zijin seemed to have thought of something and looked up at Lin Zhiyu.

For no reason, Lin Zhiyu felt a little guilty.

I feel guilty that I didn’t report to my partner when I went out to play.

"That's not true. I just studied a blueprint and asked Zhuang Shaosi of the Ordnance Supervisor to make it."

"Zhuang Xiao is still young, but he can make this thing according to the drawings you gave him. Maybe he is a talented person." Zhou Zijin thought thoughtfully.

Speaking of Zhuang Xiao, Lin Zhiyu couldn't help but think of Zhuang Younan's words just now.

"How much do you know about Concubine Jia?"

Zhou Zijin didn't expect that she would suddenly raise this issue. He was slightly stunned and said, "Is that Zhuang Younan?"

Lin Zhiyu nodded.

"She's a lunatic and it's best not to have any contact with her."
