On her wedding night, she went into exile with her pharmacy arsenal

Chapter 1556: There is a possibility of falling into deep sleep

Huo Changhe gently stroked Yan Ruyu's hair, silently comforting her.

"Come on, I'll go with you to find Da Huang."

After searching for a while, I still couldn't find Dahuang.

Yan Ruyu guessed that Dahuang should have entered the abbot's space and was with the abbot.

There is nothing we can do but wait.

The day passed in a flash.

Holding a lamp, Yinding took someone back home.

Yan Ruyu was still in the abbot's yard, so Huo Changhe came to see this person.

Entering the front hall, the herbal medicine vendor's legs felt a little weak.

As a small medicinal herb vendor, how could he have imagined that one day he would enter the Zhennan Palace and meet the Zhennan Prince.

As soon as they met, he couldn't help but kneel down to greet her.

Huo Changhe looked at him for a few times. He was in his thirties, dressed in ordinary clothes, not shabby but not too good either. He smelled faintly of medicinal herbs.

It doesn't look like a fake.

When he was in Shencheng before, guarding the border, he would catch spies almost every month, and he could basically tell whether it was a spy or not just by glancing at it.

At present, this person is not.

If it's just an ordinary person, there's no need to scare him.

Huo Changhe nodded: "Stand up and talk, you don't have to panic, I called you here just to ask you a few questions."

The man stood up, lowered his head and dared not look.

"I'm asking you, did you collect the medicinal herbs from Yunzhong Temple?"

"Your Highness, it was me. I collected them once, and the remaining ones have not yet grown to maturity. The quality of his herbs is average, not top quality. If they don't grow to maturity, the efficacy will be even worse. Herbs are used to save lives, so I didn't dare to take the worst ones, so I gave him a deposit and asked him to wait."

What he said is quite complete and it matches what the Taoist said.

"As far as I know, these herbs are not commonly used, and the prices are not high. Why did you think of collecting them? And the prices are higher than usual."

"Your Highness is right. It is true. The price only went up a month ago. It is said that the demand outside the Great Wall suddenly increased, so the price went up a bit. After all, even if the price of these herbs has increased a bit, they are still cheaper than others."

This is true.

Huo Changhe tapped the edge of the table with his fingers, thinking about the words of the small drug dealer.

Yan Ruyu felt that this matter was unusual, and so did he.

When it comes to the border and what's outside the border, no one knows it better than him.

Behind any slight disturbance, there may be a huge crisis hidden.

This matter must be taken seriously.

He thought for a moment and asked the drug dealer, "Where are you from?"

"Your Highness, I am from Shencheng."

Shencheng and Youcheng are not too far apart, and there are many cases of intermarriage between the two cities, so the accents are basically the same, and it is difficult to judge from this.

"Are you usually engaged in the business of selling medicinal herbs?"

"That's right. My ancestors made a living by selling medicinal herbs. They had a shop before, but later... our family fell into poverty. Now, after I collect the medicinal herbs, I sometimes go out on my own, but more often I take the bus of a big shop and send them out together. It's like letting them collect my herbs and making a little profit from the difference."

Huo Changhe knew this pattern. It was common among people from all walks of life who had come out of seclusion.

For a small drug dealer, he can only earn hard-earned money and support his family, but it is difficult for him to become rich.

Huo Changhe nodded and said, "Well, if you do me a favor, I can help you open another small shop. How about that?"

The small drug dealer's eyes widened, he couldn't believe that such a good thing could happen.

He quickly knelt down again and said, "If your Majesty has any instructions, just tell me. I will do my best."

Huo Changhe waved to him and said, "Come closer and listen."

……

Yan Ruyu called the abbot several times in the space, but there was still no response.

The abbot was still asleep, breathing and with a normal pulse, almost like a vegetative state.

Yan Ruyu couldn't help feeling a little panicked, fearing that the abbot would just lie there like this.

She thought about it and decided to ask Lou Tingyu if there had ever been a case where a person's consciousness was trapped in space and unable to get out.

Lou Tingyu was resting with his eyes closed. His space was also being rebuilt, and the result was much better than he expected.

When Yan Ruyu came in, he felt something and his consciousness left the space.

"Princess, what are your orders?"

Yan Ruyu got straight to the point: "Have you ever heard of or encountered this situation, where a person's consciousness is trapped in space and can't get out?"

Lou Tingyu's expression changed slightly, and a hint of fear flashed deep in his eyes.

When Yan Ruyu saw his expression, her heart sank: "You know?"

Lou Tingyu calmed down and said, "To be honest, Princess, there is indeed one, and he is from our clan."

"What's the specific situation?"

Lou Tingyu sighed, "That was twenty years ago. The elder sister of the clan leader is your aunt. She was very talented, especially her space, which was naturally better and bigger than others. At that time, she was regarded as the glory of the family and the hope of the future."

"She was carefully trained until she was eighteen years old. Generally speaking, from the age of eighteen, she would have to upgrade her space. In fact, she had already upgraded when she was sixteen, and it was not due to external conditions."

"I remember I told you last time that if your aptitude is not good enough, the family will give you some pills or something to help you upgrade."

Yan Ruyu nodded. She remembered that Lou Tingyu had indeed said so at that time. That was also the first time she heard that space could be upgraded by taking pills.

"When she was upgraded at the age of sixteen, it caused a sensation among the entire clan. When she turned eighteen, it was just a routine and a ceremony, but she refused."

"She insisted on going one step further. The clan leader tried to persuade her, but was unable to change her decision."

Lou Tingyu sighed: "Geniuses usually have a little temper, and she is no exception. She was born strong and was raised with love, so she is naturally full of arrogance."

"She failed?" Yan Ruyu didn't want to hear his sigh and asked directly.

Lou Tingyu shook his head: "No, she succeeded. The whole clan was shocked again, and the clan leader was also very excited."

"It was because of this success that a crisis was planted. She had full confidence in her own strength. Less than a year later, she forced herself to upgrade again. This time, something went wrong."

"She was unconscious and looked like she was asleep, but she just couldn't wake up."

Yan Ruyu frowned: "What is the final result?"

"The final result was that she didn't wake up until more than a year ago, but her body had already...been lying down for a long time, and many of her body functions had already deteriorated, even though the clan leader used a lot of elixirs to maintain her body."

"After she woke up and saw her own appearance, she couldn't accept it for a while, and then...she committed suicide."

"As for what she experienced in that space, why she didn't wake up, and why she woke up, no one knows."

Yan Ruyu sighed helplessly. After talking for a long time, it was as good as saying nothing.

The only effect was to make her more worried and anxious.

She didn't ask any more questions and turned to walk out.

At this moment, something unexpected happened.
