Dragging his tired body, Yan Ting returned to Liucheng, but instead of meeting the people from Yaoxuanzhai, he hid in An Lingwan's room without anyone noticing, left the medicinal materials, and left.
I just hope that these medicinal materials can heal An Lingwan's scar. Such a kind-hearted person cannot cover up her already exquisite face because of a scar.
"Sister An, I'm leaving. Thank you for the pastries. If I have a chance next time, I will come again. Don't refuse if I want some pastries. I spent a lot of effort to get these medicines.
Yes." Yan Ting smiled lightly and left the room.
An Lingwan, who could have spent her life peacefully and carefree, had to bear so much pressure. Her weak shoulders shouldered a responsibility that even a man might not be able to shoulder.
Liucheng is similar to Yanyu City. They are both located in the eastern part of the Yantian Empire, and both are less than a hundred miles away from Yanmo Valley. It is just that one is in the east of Yanmo Valley, one is in the west of Yanmo Valley, and the other is located further north.
, a southerly one.
After leaving Liucheng, Yan Ting summoned the flying bird and jumped onto its back with a single stride.
Suddenly, his body paused, as if he thought of something, his face turned slightly sideways, and he looked in the direction of Liucheng.
…
As night fell, An Lingwan sent away the last batch of patients. Yaoxuanzhai became completely quiet. She returned to the room alone. When she saw the medicinal materials on the table, her lips slowly opened. She had not been able to do so for a long time.
closure.
"Is that you?" An Lingwan murmured, as if talking to herself.
…
In another dark room, a middle-aged man with a naked upper body was tied to a pillar. What was shocking was that this man's skin was covered with light yellow pustules.
There were pustules on his chest, back, arms, and even his face. Some of these pustules had burst, exuding light yellow liquid, which looked disgusting.
In addition to the pustules on the man's face, there are also scars that he scratched with his nails. The skin and flesh are turned out and dripping with blood. The face can no longer be seen clearly. The hair and blood are stuck together, mixed with light yellow pus.
Just looking at it makes my eyes dirty.
At this moment, the man fainted, was tied to a pillar, and was dying.
With a creak, the door opened, and a young man in gold clothes walked in, followed by four servants behind him.
The corner of the young man's mouth curved, and he held a medicine bottle in his hand. He snorted softly and sneered: "It's been almost a year. This person has lived longer than those before. It seems that father's medicine is better at first."
It’s working, but I don’t know how long he can last.”
The young man came closer, looked at the middle-aged man casually, frowned slightly, with a look of disgust on his face, and stepped back.
"Master, be careful. This man has the plague, and he will be infected if he is not careful. Although we have taken the master's medicine in advance, we still have to be careful just in case." A servant said flatteringly.
The young man grabbed the servant's collar and yelled at him: "You are still talking nonsense. I don't know how to be careful. It's all because of these untouchables that I was beaten up by that bastard. This time my father invited me to the outer city."
If a master comes here, let’s see what big waves he can make.”
This young man is undoubtedly Lin Hong. After he was crippled by Yan Ting seven days ago, his father Lin Qu spent a lot of money to cure him, so now he can be alive and kicking here.
"Then the ancient blood mercenary group is just a bunch of trash. How can the strongest mercenary group in Liucheng be beaten like that by a young man? I really don't know what to do with it?" Lin Hong cursed angrily.
If it weren't for the incompetence of the Ancient Blood Mercenary Group, how could he have suffered such humiliation under Yan Ting?
in three days
(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)
Before, Lin Qu invited the Langya mercenary group from Tongcheng, a hundred miles away, and offered them a price that satisfied them, allowing them to work for the Lin family.
The Wolf Fang Mercenary Group is truly commanded by Tianyuan Realm masters. It is many times stronger than the Ancient Blood Mercenary Group. This time, the deputy leader personally led the team, with two Tianyuan Realm masters, twenty-seven Earth Yuan Realm masters, and so on.
Among them, more than half of the realm masters have reached the late stage of the Earth Yuan Realm, which is dozens of times stronger than the Ancient Blood Mercenary Group.
At this time, an old man in gray clothes came in, looked at everyone, and said to Lin Hong: "Master, I have ordered that this man must not die. He is the longest person who has survived under the influence of the new medicine so far.
, it is very likely that he has developed immunity, and his blood needs to be drawn for research."
"Father's new medicine has already had a certain effect, but I don't think this man will live long."
"This person's life should have been lost a year ago. With the treatment of the new drug, he managed to survive for a year. It is also a success for us. We have been researching for ten years, and the advent of Li drug has only been a success.
We are only one step away, as long as we find out what is special about this person's blood, we can come up with new drugs and bring down Yaoxuanzhai." The old man said calmly.
He is the housekeeper of the Lin family and has been with Lin Qu since he was a child. It has been more than forty years since he was a child.
Lin Hongdao: "Why do you need so much preparation to overthrow Yaoxuanzhai? Wouldn't it be better to just destroy it? That Tiemu is only about the seventh level of Earth Yuan. Why is father so careful?"
The old man turned away and smiled faintly: "Haha, it is easy to destroy it, but you have to consider the influence of Yaoxuanzhai in Liucheng. In the past ten years, An Jiuyu's status as an old guy has far surpassed that of your father.
, after his death, An Lingwan's reputation gradually increased, especially in recent years, my Ji Shilin's business has continued to decline, while Yaoxuanzhai's business has been getting better day by day."
"Have you ever thought about the reason?"
The old man suddenly asked, making Lin Hong stunned for a moment, and then said: "The medical expenses in Yaoxuanzhai are cheap."
"Yes, that's the point. They are cheap. Yaoxuanzhai has been established for more than ten years, but they act in a public way and accept patients. Not only are the prices extremely low, they also directly waive medical expenses for some patients and even give away medicines. Back then,
That time when refugees entered the city, we refused free clinics, which greatly increased the reputation of Yaoxuanzhai."
"But they can look down on fame and wealth, can we? The Lin family has been rooted in Liucheng for generations. Practicing medicine is just a meal. There is no one who does not charge for medical treatment. The Lin family has more than a hundred people to support. His Yaoxuan
What does fasting mean? How can we know our suffering?"
The old man's voice gradually became darker and filled with anger. It seemed that Yao Xuanzhai had been suppressing the Lin family for so many years, making it impossible for the Lin family to hold their head high. Years of anger broke out in an instant, and he still spoke plausibly.
It really explains the word cheeky to the fullest.
Lin Hong nodded, as if hearing the sound of the great road.
Looking at the middle-aged man taking his last breath, Lin Hong couldn't help but ask: "Can father's medicine really cure this disease?"
"Haha." The old man smiled and said: "After ten years of twists and turns, the new drug is finally coming out. I feel that success is not far away."
"But... this medicine can only cure the plague. Even if it is developed, how useful will it be? Is it possible for everyone in the city to..."
Lin Hong's voice stopped suddenly because he saw the old man's strange smile, which was so strange that it made people violently panic.
"Master, I won't hide it from you now. Do you know why I spent ten years developing this medicine to treat the plague?" the old man asked.
Lin Hong thought for a while and said directly: "It's not just to surpass Yaoxuanzhai in medicine and regain the

Return to our place?"
"That's just one of them. Do you know why we use living people for experiments instead of livestock?"
"I don't know." Lin Hong answered simply this time.
The vicissitudes of the old man's voice echoed in the room, and he spoke slowly: "Because, for livestock, this plague will kill them immediately, but for people, it can make people live for a longer period of time. During this period, it will
It will cause ulcers and pustules all over the body, and then the whole body will start to itch, making you unable to stop scratching. When the pustules burst, rotten wounds will form, and within a month, you will die violently."
The old man's words explained why the middle-aged man had scratches on his face.
"This man should have died a year ago, but our medicine saved him and allowed him to live for another year. Think about it, facing the fear of death and a road that can keep you alive
, which one will you choose?"
"Article 2..."
"By the way, everyone will rush to major medical clinics in order to survive, but this kind of plague has never appeared before, so they have no way to cure it, including Yaoxuanzhai. Even if they can cure it, they have to spend a lot of money
We need time to study the nature of the plague. By then, a large number of people will die one after another. Under the control of death, they will lose confidence in Yaoxuanzhai. But at this time, if we make a sound and say that Ji Shilin has medicine that can
Curing this plague, what do you think will happen?"
Lin Hong's eyes widened and he was surprised. He blurted out: "There will be a large number of patients coming to Lin's house for medical treatment."
"Yes, when the time comes, we will appropriately lower the price of the medicine. On the one hand, we can accumulate a lot of support for Ji Shilin. On the other hand, because of the large number of people, we can also make a big profit from it, getting the best of both worlds." The old man's smile gradually became ferocious.
It's as if the beauty of victory is right in front of you.
"But how can we let the whole city get this plague?"
"This plague is not a natural disaster!"
The old man's eight simple words made Lin Hong's mind feel like being hit by a heavy hammer. Suddenly, his mind was confused and he could only see endless blanks.
"Is what you heard about the plague brought by that group of refugees entering the city?"
Lin Hong nodded.
"Actually, this is not the case. This plague was created by us."
Lin Hong's body was shaken.
"We created the plague just for the sake of the emergence of new drugs. The master planned and planned for ten years and conducted secret research. Unfortunately, the old man An Jiuyu found out about it. However, the old man also died early due to physical reasons. This is a good thing for us.
There is a huge resistance. If he publicizes it, everything will be in vain."
"Now, we only need to wait for the new drug to be fully developed, and then we can drop the plague poison into the river. By then, the plague will spread rapidly like a wind-driven mountain fire. In half a month, it will be enough to infect the entire city."
"Of course, the master invited the mercenary group from Tongcheng to come. Firstly, they can stop them if there is an accident during the process. Secondly, let them bring the plague to Tongcheng. People in the two cities are infected with the plague. How big is this?
A fortune, haha..."
Lin Hong's eyes were dull. It turned out that when An Lingwan scolded him, he thought An Lingwan was spreading rumors to stir up trouble. He was just testing the medicine on living people. Although thousands of people died, as soon as the new medicine appeared, it could save countless people.
Human lives, comparing the two, those thousands of people died well.
In his heart, Lin Qu's image was great. Although he could not be like Yaoxuanzhai due to livelihood constraints, he understood it very well. He always thought that his father was carrying out a great plan that would benefit all people, and even save the people.
The feats of common people, now looking at it, what the Lin family has done can be described in four words.
