4.42 The Twelve Hairpins of the Southern Kingdom (continued) Part 1
"Good grandma." Wu Chen recognized the mysterious guest who was uninvited at first sight.
"This tree is good." Grandma is a thousand-year-old tree demon. Although she has lost her true nature, with her strength, her spirit and form have long been united.
"Thank you grandma for praise." Wu Chen said in cooperation with her.
"I heard it was the method given by the Poison Ivy Girl?" Grandma Mu Ji asked directly.
Wu Chen decided in an instant not to hide it: "Yes."
"What else did she say to you?" Sure enough, grandma's words were waiting here.
"She said something she wanted to say, but I didn't object." Wu Chen said roughly.
However, Grandma Mu Ji understood: "Okay. I heard you can make soap?"
"Yes." Wu Chen secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
"Make me one if you have time." Grandma Mu Ji finally turned her eyes to Wu Chen: "Say, what do you want." Grandma meant to ask Wu Chen to lift the conditions for making soap.
"Grandma, can you bring me next time you release the news?" Wu Chen took the opportunity to express his request.
"You want to leave the city too?" Grandma asked with a smile.
"yes."
"It's fine. Find some time and I'll take you out." Grandma Mu Ji turned around and left.
"Grandma is here to be done." Wu Chen hurriedly saluted behind him.
After seeing off grandma, Wu Chen rushed to a teahouse without stopping and took Murong Yan to Wangyou Restaurant. This time, before knocking on the door, the strong man like an iron tower had quickly opened a door and let the two of them enter.
Guiyunjiu is a good wine, but Wu Chen dared not drink one bowl at a time. He tasted it slowly and would not get drunk too quickly.
After Murong Yan put down the wine bowl, Wu Chen's future purpose was expressed.
"Sister Xiang'er. You are an expert in the Five Elements. I want to know. Which of the five elements is this 'blood crystal' transformed by human flesh and blood?"
"The blood crystal is beyond the five elements." The boss's wife said in a word.
"So that's it." Wu Chen was a little disappointed.
The boss lady said again: "Although it is beyond the five elements, some talented people can still draw energy from it."
Wu Chen nodded, and he thought of the Queen of Night Walking Dragon. She could absorb energy from the blood crystal without having to eat or drink at all.
"So what is the blood crystal?" Wu Chen asked.
"The blood crystal is blood essence. The essence in the blood condenses into it. However, it jumps out of the five elements, looks good and useless. The energy contained in it cannot be mobilized. It is like the gangue mixed in coal stone, although it looks very much like coal stone, but it is useless."
"Coal gangue, or 'crystal gangue'." Wu Chen understood.
"That's true." The boss Xiang'er nodded with a smile.
Sniffing the Buddhist fragrance hidden under the rouge powder, Wu Chen became more and more fascinated by the identity of the boss lady. Speaking of which, even the twelve golden hairpins of Shaw Brothers are as clear as a technical housekeeper, but he cannot find the source of the boss lady in front of him. This is unscientific...
I don’t know the value system in the prison city. Anyway, Wu Chen always put a small piece of soap as a wine supply every time he comes. The boss Xianger should be satisfied.
Promise Wu Chen to have time to go to his incense yard to set up a five-element guardian magic circle, and Wu Chen immediately said goodbye to Murong Yan and leave.
When I sent him back to Xiangfang, I heard that Wu Chen was going to go out of the city with my grandmother. Murong Yan's worries were all on her face: "Brother Wu, that grandmother Mu Ji is famous for being moody. It is both righteous and evil. There is no iron rule that cannot be killed outside the city. If she is malicious, her brother will be in danger."
"That's right..." Wu Chen nodded. He was called by the master of the left and the master recently, and he was a little fluttering. He almost forgot that when he first met Grandma Mu Ji, she wanted to kill herself! If it weren't for the white-haired witch blocking her, she would probably have turned into a red crystal pillar and was planted outside.
Well, I have to be careful.
After thinking about it, Wu Chen had just stepped into Xiangfang and went to Mengjing Thorn Life Museum.
The life museum full of thorns and dreamy aura can actually achieve ‘memory reappear’!
This surprised Wu Chen.
The so-called memory reappearance is like playing a somatosensory game. Through special potions and instruments, some fragments of interest in a person's memory that he is interested in are reactivated and reproduced through dreams. There are many similar movies, including "Rebirth of the Man" and "Comprehensive Memories".
Why so many people want to live in dreams? The reason is that reality is too cruel. So they want to find the beauty of living in their past memories.
Obviously, Poison Ivy Girl uses special plant-based neurotoxins to achieve all this.
It's very simple. When Wu Chen walked in, he saw withered vines, as if he had walked into an extremely huge tree hole. There were no high-tech equipment needed for virtual reality technology. Therefore, the method to realize memory reproduction must be a nerve agent.
Wu Chen's arrival surprised the Poison Ivy Girl. It could even be said to be a surprise.
Wu Chen also visited the method of reappearing the dream at close range.
Let a customer lie on the chair, the poison ivy girl first used a low and melodious voice to urge her to sleep, and then gently dripped a drop of green "eye drops" in each of her eyes. The moment the potion drips onto the eyeballs, the customer's pupils suddenly turned into a strange color.
My whole body was tense, and then gradually relaxed. I entered the dream with a smile.
"How did it do it?" Wu Chen was full of curiosity.
"What?" asked the Poison Ivy Girl with a smile. It seemed that there was no justice and evil camp judgment, and the Poison Ivy Girl showed a kind side in the prison.
"I mean, how do you know which memory she wanted to enter?" This is Wu Chen's question. According to his idea, there is no high-tech terminal that can read the "memory folder" stored in the neuron. How can Poison Ivy women 's single 's medicine' to 'select' the memory archive that guests want to activate based on potions?
"It's her own choice." The Poison Ivy woman revealed the answer: "When she comes to me, I will chat with her first. This is a very important part. In this way, she will involuntarily recall the beautiful memories. It may be that because of the time, many details are blurred, so be careful to think about it, and then add my potion, you will naturally enter her dusty beautiful memory."
"I understand." Wu Chen nodded happily.
"Speaking of this, what's wrong with you coming to me?" asked the Poison Ivy Girl with a smile.
"That's it..." Wu Chen was about to go out of the city with Grandma Mu Ji and told the Poison Ivy Girl.
"From my understanding of her, she will not do such a backlash. Since she decided to take you with her, she will naturally protect you. If she goes together but cannot go back together, her reputation in the prison city will be completely destroyed. In this prison full of serious prisoners, the most difficult thing to establish is trust with others. If she loses trust, her good days in the city will come to an end."
"Because there is no law, morality becomes the only measure and guarantee." Wu Chen understood.
"That's right. In your words, 'The world of the world is in the world'. This is the rule of the prison city. If anyone breaks the rules, it will not be far from death. Since there is one of the rules: believe in words and do what you do. Then she promises to take you out and will bring you back intact." The Poison Ivy woman smiled.
"I'm a villain in vain." Wu Chen smiled mockingly.
"You are the first time and don't know these rules are normal." The Poison Ivy woman handed a bottle of fluorescent green potion to Wu Chen: "However, the rules also say: Be careful of others. Therefore, bring it with you, and you can use it as a guarantee if you need it."
"Thank you." Wu Chen handed her a piece of white jade lotus soap refined from the Queen of Night Walking Dragon.
"Wow, what a fresh fragrance." The Poison Ivy Girl seemed to like it very much, and immediately put it on the tip of her nose and smelled it again and again: "I heard that you made a piece of soap for Margent, which is much bigger than this one, right?"
"Yes." There is nothing to hide.
"So, do you have a secret piece for me if you have time?"
"No problem. Wait until I come back from outside the city." Wu Chen made an appointment with her for a rough time and said goodbye and left.
Take the witch with you. Wu Chen rushed to the Paramount Nightclub, where the second beauties often place orders.
The signboard composed of colorful light bulbs and neon tubes is full of the visual sense of night Shanghai. The sides of the steps are filled with flower baskets from distinguished guests who come to hold the corners. The names of the stars who appear on the flower signs close to the door. Wu Chen looked at it and found that there were no names he was familiar with. He did not read many songs and dance movies similar to those in Shanghai. He was not familiar with the names of these big Shanghai singers. The deepest memory is Xiao Jinbao in "Shake, Shake to Grandma's Bridge", Nicole in "Mold Rouge", and Velma in "Chicago".
Like all nightclubs, admission is free of money. It is also free of money to watch performances, but sitting down to spend money will cost a lot.
The drinks here are much worse than those in Paradise Nightclub. Wu Chen used the general "Cuncity Certificate" to order a glass of water, sat quietly in the corner with the witch, watching the performance on the stage.
Unfortunately, they are all ordinary corners, and there is no surprise that can make his eyes shine.
After listening to the last song, I was about to leave when a crisp voice suddenly sounded from beside me: "Uncle, should I buy a pack of cigarettes?"
The cigarette seller holding a cigarette box tied two braids. It instantly matched the situation in Wu Chen's memory. But... Where did the tobacco come from in prison without plants?
The aura of Dead Dog immediately opened. Wu Chen smiled and bent down: "Little girl, how do you sell this cigarette?"
"Three pieces per pack." The little girl replied crisply.
"Okay." Wu Chen took out three prison vouchers and handed them to the little girl.
The little girl stared at the three gold coupons nervously, looked at Wu Chen again, and finally plucked up the courage to speak, "Master, can you give me a piece of soap?"
"Huh?" Wu Chen reached out and held the witch's sudden tense wrist. He asked with a smile: "Little girl, why do you want soap?"
"Because of Sister Xueling...Because of Sister Xueling..." The little girl who didn't know how to speak was almost crying.
Wu Chen suddenly felt soft and took out a piece of his own rosin-scented soap and put it in his sister-in-law's cigarette box. Then he urged the cigarette placed in the cigarette box and pointed: "Can I choose?"
"Yes!" The little girl nodded repeatedly, very happy.
Wu Chen carefully chose a pack. This kind of seriousness was for the little girl to show. In fact, tobacco is the same for him, but it is just choking anyway.
When I turned around, I found that the back of the cigarette box was actually printed with a charming and charming big avatar of Mu Ji. The avatar was the exaggerated and charming poster unique to Shanghai.
Wu Chen immediately accepted.
I moved my heart and signaled the girl not to leave first, and exchanged a piece of soap for another brand of cigarettes.
I turned over and looked again and immediately realized.
The back of this pack of cigarettes was printed with a big, elegant portrait of the poison ivy woman.
