Chapter 24

Ever since the deer was born, Shuangyan felt that her nose was too sensitive. Every time she entered the palace, she would always smell blood, especially on the fifteenth day, the smell became stronger and stronger, which made her very puzzled. No matter how many chickens, ducks, and pigs are killed, the taste cannot be hoarded and lingering.

And the smell comes from the southeast, the farthest part of the palace, where few people set foot. I heard that Empress Xi used the Taoist priest to refine the elixir in that direction.

Could it be that the Taoist master is refining some evil thing?Shuangyan, who has always been very curious, felt that she would find an opportunity to find out the truth.

In the darkness, a shadow touched Qinghua Hall.

Pushing open a window and looking in, there were a few oil lamps lit in the hall, but they were as bright as day; a sweet scent inhaled into her nostrils, and she frowned. The smell was very strange, neither incense nor herbs. The smell seems to have added ointment, but I don't know what ointment was added. In short, the smell is very inexplicable and uncomfortable. The most important thing is that the bloody smell does come from this temple.

Well, you stinky Taoist priest, let this lady find out your dirty and messy deeds, and I will definitely let you get out of the palace.

The alchemy room is very large, and there are eight small cauldron furnaces, which are placed in the center of the hall around a large cauldron furnace.

The big cauldron and the small cauldron showed no signs of alchemy, and it was so quiet inside that it made people's hair stand on end.

On the shrine for the patriarch, the scented wax is exuberant, and there are no stinky Taoist priests meditating on the futon under the altar table. What is this situation?Is there someone or no one?
I heard from the eunuchs and maids in the palace that this stinky Taoist priest is indifferent and arrogant, never greets others, and relying on Empress Xi, he always does his own thing, like a crab, no one in the palace dares to humiliate him, he is so awesome a character.

No one dared to approach the place where he made alchemy easily, for fear of provoking him and causing trouble.

Stinky Taoist priest, others are afraid of you, but this girl has even seen ghosts, and I am still afraid of you as a monster!Humph, here I come.

She climbed through the window and entered the hall.

The alchemy room was very quiet, after looking around for a while, there was no one there, just so, Miss Ben didn't need you to invite me, she came by herself.

She had already seen the dense rows of medicine cabinets placed behind the corner of the hall, and ran directly to the medicine cabinet.

She began to rummage in the medicine cabinet, maybe she was too focused and didn't notice the changes around her. When she felt a pat on the shoulder, her heart sank, won't she be found?She didn't look back, she waited quietly, there was nothing unusual, could it be a hallucination, she shook her head, this alchemy room is really evil.

She started rummaging again.

The protruding shoulder was patted again, she was alert, who was behind, whether it was a temptation or a danger, she was not sure, she gritted her teeth and turned her head.

Behind him was a monkey face, Furry was covering its eyes, looking at him through his fingers, scratching his head with one hand.

Hey, how does this look like the monkey head who pulled out his golden hairpin that day!

The monkey looked at each other with human eyes, and saw that it was dragged on the ground with an iron chain tied around its neck. It was a captive monkey, not a wild monkey.But it is impossible for it to go behind me without making a sound, but why didn't I hear it?Why didn't it make a sound?

Could it be that monkey, it also recognized itself, and the old acquaintance didn't scream.

Impossible, it is easy to make up for itself, it cannot be so smart.

She looked around and found no one coming, so Fang breathed a sigh of relief, but the monkey head rolled its eyes on her face, suddenly grinned at her, and screamed strangely while clutching its stomach.

It was funny last time, but this time again, just to clean you up, she took out a silver needle and stabbed at the monkey's head, "You monkey, shut up." The silver light shone, and the monkey was frightened, covering its mouth and jumping Jumped and ran.

Shuangyan's heart skipped a beat, and she dodged to hide behind the gauze curtain to listen quietly. After observing for a while, she made sure that the hericium didn't attract anyone, and then continued. When she opened the uppermost and innermost medicine cabinet, it was empty. , she was curious, what is the situation with names but no medicinal materials?
While thinking, her hand accidentally touched the bottom of the drawer. After a clear sound came from inside, a hidden compartment appeared. She saw that there was a small box in the dark compartment. She took the box out and opened it, and there was a green bottle inside.
