Chapter 199: Entering the Astrology Hall Again
Jun Zhuoyuan became angrier the more he thought about it. Seeing the sun rising outside, he simply went out to buy breakfast for Mu Nanyan.
When Mu Nanyan came out from behind the screen, she didn't see anyone. She guessed that he was angry. Thinking of comforting him later, she went next door to see the little palace maid.
The person stopped crying. Instead, he sat on the floor, leaning against the bed with the pieces of clothes in his arms, giving people a sense of brokenness.
"Girl, let me check your pulse. Although the person is gone, you must live well. After all, you are their only blood in the world. Only if you are alive can their lives continue." Seeing that she did not move, Mu Nanyan took her pulse. She was too sad and needed two injections.
"Girl, your family is still waiting for you to handle your funeral, you can't just give up." Mu Nanyan took out a silver needle, found two acupuncture points and inserted them directly.
The little maid finally took a breath and said, "Miss, I - I -"
"Cry, it will feel better after crying." Mu Nanyan grabbed the hand that was receiving the acupuncture and held her tightly in her arms with the other hand. The little palace maid buried her head in her shoulder and sobbed. The sound was not as strong as at the beginning, but sadness could still be heard.
Not long after, the sound of the person in her arms gradually subsided, replaced by a series of steady sounds. She fell asleep after crying herself tired. Mu Nanyan pulled out the needle and carried the person to the bed. She was so light and weightless, it seemed that she had not eaten properly before. Afraid that she would wake up suddenly, Mu Nanyan lit calming incense for her before leaving, so that she could sleep a little longer.
Jun Zhuoyuan had been guarding the door. He originally wanted to bring back some food, but after looking around he couldn't find anything that suited Yanyan's taste, so he had to buy some local specialties and bring them back for her to try.
Mu Nanyan quietly backed out of the room without noticing if there was anyone at the door. Jun Zhuoyuan didn't say anything, but when he turned around he was startled, "Are you trying to scare me to death?" Mu Nanyan angrily hit his chest.
"Yan Yan, you haven't seen me for the past two days." Jun Zhuoyuan looked extremely aggrieved. He shouldn't have brought Yan Yan here. He would meet a love rival as soon as he came out.
"Uh, what nonsense are you talking about? I've seen you everywhere. I even checked your injuries yesterday. By the way, let me see your injury." Mu Nanyue grabbed his injured hand. Well, her medicine was still very effective. It wasn't serious at all.
"Yan Yan, you said you would treat me first, why is it that a whole day has passed and it's not my turn yet?" Jun Zhuoyuan felt even more aggrieved.
Mu Nanyan was helpless. She was really wrong. She didn't expect the little mermaid to be injured like this. It was really a waste of time. She wanted to take a look at him in the morning, but he was not there. It was not her fault.
"Come on, I saw you were not here this morning. Did you go out to buy something?" Mu Nanyan didn't dare to continue the previous topic and pulled people back to the next room.
The little mermaid was still sleeping in the bathtub. She had been tense for too long, and it would take her two days to wake up if she suddenly relaxed. Mu Nanyan closed the door and pulled her into the space. "I guess there's nothing delicious here. How about I cook for you and let you taste my cooking skills?"
The space was a little small because there were too many things in it. Mu Nanyan had no choice but to let him stand and wait. There was no place to sit. Fortunately, there were coffee machines, bread machines, and some snack machines in the space, otherwise she wouldn't know how to get through. Even if there was food stored, she couldn't take it out to eat, as it would seem insincere. She might as well make some breakfast he had never eaten before.
Mu Nanyan was busy for a long time. After finishing one, she took it out of the space and put it on the table. Of course, she saw the rice rolls, sashimi, etc. that Jun Zhuoyuan brought back... Was he planning to fill her to death in the morning?
Finally it was done. Mu Nanyan stood in front of the table and praised herself. She called Jun Zhuoyuan twice but got no response. Then she remembered that he was still in the space. She forgot about him, so she had to go back quickly, apply medicine to him and bring him out.
"Come and try it." Mu Nanyan picked up a sandwich for him. This was her favorite breakfast in the past because it was the most nutritious and simple.
Jun Zhuoyuan took a bite to taste it and nodded, "It's delicious. Does Yanyan eat this every day?"
Mu Nanyan knew what he was asking about. "No, but I eat it often. Can you accept this?"
Jun Zhuoyuan held the coffee that tasted like medicine, put it under his nose and smelled it. It had a special aroma and milky flavor. He took a small sip. It was very bitter at first, but he could taste the aroma and milky flavor as he tasted it slowly.
"It's a bit bitter."
"This is what it is. I added milk in case you couldn't accept it. If you like it, I'll make it for you often in the future." Mu Nanyan picked up the sandwich and took a big bite. The sauce stuck to her cheek, and Jun Zhuoyuan carefully wiped it off for her.
After dinner, the two began to discuss the whereabouts of the mermaid. Mu Nanyan naturally wanted to release him back to the sea, and Jun Zhuoyuan would definitely agree. It would not be a good thing if this thing followed them, so he would be the first to be unfriendly.
Considering the hidden situation of Beihan Kingdom, this time the visit to Risheng Kingdom went more smoothly than last time. However, there was one thing that had not been found. Mu Nanyan had never seen the treasury being emptied, and Jun Zhuoyuan had not told her. It seemed that this thing was not in the treasury.
So what on earth makes Dongli so fearful?
After the two of them finished their discussion, Mu Nanyan drugged the little palace maid again before taking action at night to prevent her from being scared when she woke up at night.
At night, the two of them went to the Astrology Hall according to the route they took last night. There was no one around and it was dark and windy. It was a good time to solve problems. What exactly was this monster underground?
Jun Zhuoyuan would never allow her to go down alone this time. Ever since he was able to stand up, Mu Nanyan had become more cautious. She would not let him take more than a few steps. She was very strict with him and only allowed him to practice martial arts a few days before departure.
Mu Nanyan was afraid that he would get into an accident because he was always aggrieved in front of her and always teasing that petite woman. "Be careful, your legs are fine."
For some reason, ever since he was able to stand up, she has always been worried about his legs. She thinks he might as well sit in a wheelchair.
"Yanyan, I'm not that weak." Jun Zhuoyuan sighed. Was he pretending too much? Should he not do this again in the future? Yanyan didn't believe him anymore.
Mu Nanyan touched his muscles and found that he was not weak. Damn, he always pretended to be with her. "Okay, you go in front." If he slips and falls, he can still have a cushion of flesh.
Jun Zhuoyuan held her little hand, and it was indeed better than before. At least there was some flesh and he could pinch it.
The two of them left last night without extinguishing the candles, and the basement was still brightly lit.
The monster was quieter than yesterday. At least Mu Nanyan didn't roar when she looked at him. "Yeah, very good~"
Jun Zhuoyuan jumped down first. Mu Nanyan sneered, thinking that this man was afraid that she would not take him with her, so she followed closely behind.
"Jun Zhuoyuan, be careful. I can't guarantee that it won't attack you." Mu Nanyan said this intermittently in the air, and Jun Zhuoyuan picked her up below.
Mu Nanyan jumped out of his arms and said, "How about this, help me get something from it, blood is best."
After receiving the order, Jun Zhuoyuan drew out the soft sword at his waist and rushed out. Mu Nanyan pulled a stool out from the space, grabbed a handful of melon seeds and started crunching them. It must be said that he is not only handsome but also good at fighting.
Jun Zhuoyuan quickly dug a piece of meat off its body and said, "Give it to Yanyan. Is this okay?"
It was so bloody, this man was so cruel, but she liked it, "That's enough, let's go in and study it."
Mu Nanyan led people into the space and started to compare DNA. Jun Zhuoyuan had nothing to do and watched her operate beside him. He just took these things and looked at them. Is it enough to just click? What do these symbols mean?
Mu Nanyan noticed him and said, "If you are bored, just hang out here. I have some really good stuff here. Just don't move around so as not to hurt yourself. I'm very fast here."
Jun Zhuoyuan didn't disturb him and walked around the space. Some of the things he had seen Mu Nanyan use were limited to those on the table. It was the first time he saw her use other things. It seemed that the place where Yanyan lived was very rich and prosperous.
It really didn't take very long for Mu Nanyan to confirm the relationship between the monster and the little mermaid, and confirmed that this was one of his tribesmen, but for some reason it had turned into its current appearance. It might be related to the insects that the high priest was studying.
"Let's go out and see where the bugs that the high priest is studying come from. Do you know?"
Jun Zhuoyuan had never seen it but had heard of it, but this thing was not from the Risheng Kingdom.
