Feng Changqi remembered the face in front of her very clearly, because when she saw the portrait for the first time, she also admired the beauty of the other party's appearance with A-Niang, but she didn't expect that there would be a day when she would see a real person.

Yu Wuwang was a little dazed: "Have you seen her?" ”

"I've seen her portrait, Master, have you forgotten, you've seen it too!"

On that day, not long after the establishment of Meng Liguo, Bai Huan was busy with all the affairs of the previous dynasty, and the affairs of the harem were handed over to Feng Changqi to take care of. Many objects in the palace were looked at by her one by one, so Feng Changqi still remembers it very clearly.

That's a portrait.

It is said that the paper used for the portrait is a thousand-year-old paper, and even if it is preserved for a thousand years, it will not change in the slightest, because the face of the other person is very clear.

At that time, Feng Changqi took a few more looks, and later took Bai Huan to ask.

Bai Huan recognized it after just one glance: "It is the portrait of the first empress of Meng Liguo, in addition to her portrait, there are also portraits of several ancestors who are also preserved in the ancestral hall, but later there were frequent wars, and most of the portraits of the ancestral hall were destroyed, leaving only this one still preserved in the palace." How did Qi'er find this portrait at a glance? ”

"I saw it accidentally, A-Niang, the person in the portrait is so good-looking."

Bai Huan smiled and nodded, with a little more melancholy in his eyes: "It is said that she is the most beautiful woman in the world, but unfortunately her fate is not good." ”

"She is the empress, how can she have a bad fate with such a noble status?"

Bai Huan in her memory touched her cheek, and did not explain the real reason, only saying that although she was a master, she also had many helpless things.

As soon as Feng Changqi said this, Yu Wuwang remembered that when he looked at the portrait that day, he and Feng Changqi were indeed together, but because there were still things to do at that time, he didn't pay too much attention to the portrait! If he had known that one day they would meet this person, he would have taken a few more looks.

After listening to Feng Changqi and Yu's hopeless words, Rao is oldest nameless was a little calm: "How is this possible?" ”

Meng Liguo has been founded for hundreds of years, if the woman in front of her is the first empress of Meng Liguo, then her age is not hundreds of years old? But looking at her appearance, she is not much different from a young woman! Is she a human or a youkai? Thinking of this, everyone began to be vigilant.

The two-headed python is so close to the woman but doesn't do anything to her, it seems that the two are quite related, if it really fights, I don't know who can have the upper hand!

Just when everyone was on guard, the white-clothed and white-haired woman was also looking at Feng Changqi's face, she looked at Feng Changqi's eyebrows and eyes over and over again, and suddenly smiled and said: "No wonder your face looks a little familiar, it turns out to be like me, no wonder you have come all the way to the present, and you haven't been touched all night." Little girl, you are from the royal family of Meng Liguo, right? Surname Bai? ”

Yu was hopeless and afraid that the woman who didn't know whether it was a human or a demon would be unfavorable to Feng Changqi, so she took a step forward and stood in front of Feng Changqi.

Feng Changqi himself was also a little scared, but he still mustered up his courage: "My surname is Feng, and my father's surname is with me, but my mother's surname is Bai, and now I am the empress of Meng Liguo." ”

The woman nodded: "Then it can be explained." ”

As everyone spoke, a faint cat meow came from the white mist, and then a white shadow swooped down at the woman's feet.

The woman half-crouched down and took the cat into her arms; "You were the ones who saved my cat, right? Oh, in that case, I can't kill you. Night, you go somewhere else first, these people are my guests now, don't worry. ”

The two-headed python, known as the Night, seemed to be able to understand human speech, and turned around and slowly walked towards the thick fog.

The woman also turned around, her long skirt swaying like a flower: "Come with me, since you are a guest, you should be entertained with tea." ”

The woman took two steps forward, but no one dared to follow.

She raised her eyebrows slightly: "Are you guys scared?" In this case, don't even think about the water in the wood, in this world, I'm afraid I'm the only one who knows the whereabouts of the water in the wood. ”

Anyway, regardless of whether the people behind her would follow, she walked directly along the stone bridge.

No one knew the origin of this woman, let alone whether it would be dangerous to follow her forward, but for the safety of Nangong Zhuoran, Gongsun Tianheng gritted his teeth and still followed, Feng Changqi and Yu Hopeless followed, and the others also followed.

The group walked all the way along the stone bridge that the woman walked, and the further they went, the lighter the fog became, until they reached the end, they found that the white mist was not shrouded in the whole lake at all, but only in the outermost layer, and in the middle of the lake was an island, and the island was red and willow green, like a paradise.

Feng Changqi's eyes lit up and brightened: "Senior......."

Nameless, who was looking at her expectantly, shook his head: "Although there are a lot of exotic grasses among them, there is no water in the wood. ”

The woman who walked at the front seemed to hear their voices and chuckled twice.

The island is not large, so the group quickly walked to the courtyard where the woman lived.

If it weren't for what he saw with his own eyes, Feng Changqi really couldn't believe that there would be such a courtyard in such a dense forest, which was called the Horror Forest! It looks ordinary in Meng Liguo, but it's strange to appear here! Because all of its decorations and even the style of the details of the house show that it comes from the capital of Meng Liguo, which also confirms what Feng Changqi said, this woman is indeed from Meng Liguo!

The shock of everyone fell on the woman's eyes as if it was an insignificant joke, she didn't even have the mood to ask more questions or explain, and led the people into the door and asked straight to the point: "What are you looking for wood in the water?" ”

Hearing the three words of water in the wood, Feng Changqi couldn't care about other emotions anymore, and said frankly: "My mother has been poisoned by a strange poison, and I need water in the wood to be used as a medicine to detoxify, and I am here for A-Niang." ”

Gongsun Tianheng also opened his mouth: "I am here to save my master, master, her old man was captured by a wicked demon, and now she doesn't know whether she is alive or dead........ The demon said that if he wanted to save his master, he had to get the water in the wood! Senior, if you know the whereabouts of the water in the wood, tell us. ”

The woman propped her chin and looked surprised: "Oh, this seems to be some emergency use, it's really unfortunate, the water in the wood can't be obtained by you in a short period of time." ”

Not being able to find the water in the wood means that Bai Huan's life cannot be saved, and Feng Changqi can't help but be emotional: "Why can't you get it?" ”

The woman smiled and said, "Because it takes at least ten years for the water in the wood to grow and then blossom and bear fruit, and I happen to have some seeds of water in the wood in my hand, I wanted you to stay here for ten years to talk to me, but now it seems impossible." ”

Feng Changqi's eyes were dark, and the person almost fainted.

"It takes ten years for water in a tree to blossom and bear fruit?"

"That's right," looking at Feng Changqi's painful expression, her expression suddenly became a little complicated for some reason, "Actually, I still don't say much about this deadline, the water in the wood is not an ordinary herb, its growth needs the right time and place, although the scenery of this lake is good, but the environment is not very suitable for its growth, whether it can grow to the time of flowering, I am not sure." ”

Feng Changqi and Gongsun Tianheng became dead because of these few words.

The others also looked solemn, they finally found this mountain lake with water in the wood, only to be told that the water in the wood has long ceased to exist, who can withstand such a blow?

Nameless half-lowered his eyes: "Then do you know where there is water in the wood?" We can go one more time. "As long as they are fast enough, maybe they can catch up, in short, it is better to have hope than to despair!

The woman shook her head: "No." ”

She didn't deliberately play the meaning of these people to find the people here, but told the truth. The water in the wood did grow here, but ten years ago, they all withered, and even some of the remaining seeds were left by her many years ago. Now, even if you want to plant, it will take at least ten years to come out, and there is no water in the wood in other places.

She looked at Feng Changqi with a smile, and said with a sigh: "Since it is a legendary rare herb, how can it be everywhere." ”

Feng Changqi breathed a sigh, and the person fainted directly.

It turns out that the hardships along the way have already exhausted all her physical strength, from childhood to adulthood, even in the difficult years when she grew up in the cold palace, she has not really suffered anything, where can she withstand this hardship? It's not easy to survive until now before fainting.

Feng Changqi's sudden fainting caused everyone's surprise, and Yu Wuwang rushed to her side to check the situation as soon as possible, and Nameless, who was entrusted by someone, also hurriedly walked over.

After taking the pulse, Nameless breathed a sigh of relief: "It's okay, it's just that you will faint when you are overworked and stimulated, and you will be fine after a few days." ”

The woman pointed in the direction of the room: "There is a guest room over there, you can take her over there to rest first." ”

Yu Wuwang has a very good relationship with Feng Changqi, even if he only encounters a little danger along the way, he will protect Feng Changqi behind him for the first time, all this is in everyone's eyes, but people can't understand it, this time Feng Changqi fainted, but he didn't stay by her side, but entrusted people to Yueqing.

"Qi'er is handed over to you to take care of, I have something I want to ask my seniors."

Although Yueqing didn't know what to do, out of consideration for Feng Changqi's physical condition, she still nodded, and the others also left the living room, and in the huge living room, only Yu Wuwang and the mysterious woman were soon left.

She was very interested in Jade Hopeless: "What do you want to say to me?" ”
