"Wait a minute, Dad, do you think that person is the one who followed us in the mountains last time?"
Just as he was about to reach the city gate, Xu Yunjin suddenly saw a familiar profile, it was Brother Shan who had followed them before.
At this moment, the other person was dressed like a woodcutter and was walking towards the city with two loads of firewood on his shoulders. When Xu Wen saw that the person was indeed Brother Shan, he frowned.
"Mr. Xu, Miss Xu, what's wrong with you? Do you know that person?"
Yuan Bao looked at the two people with strange expressions and asked.
"Let's go, Yuanbao, let's go back to the county office quickly."
Xu Yunjin did not explain, and turned around with Xu Wen and returned to the county government office, with Yuan Bao quickly following behind.
"Mr. Xu, Miss Xu, what's wrong? Why are you back again?"
Yuan Xuan was a little surprised to see the father and daughter back.
"Master Yuan, your Excellency the County Magistrate, we just found a Northern Barbarian at the gate of the city."
Xu Wen's words made Yuan Xuan and Jiang Baiyu look at each other quickly.
"How do you know that man is a Northern Barbarian? Do you have any characteristics on him?"
Jiang Baiyu was a little curious.
"No, when we went to the mountains to find water, we were followed by three people. I used some hallucinogenic drugs to find out where they came from. These people are half Daqi blood, and their bodies are similar to those of Daqi people.
Generally, it was Hating, the youngest son of the Northern Man emperor, who sent them to sneak into Daqi. Just at the city gate, we saw one of them named Brother Shan entering the city disguised as a woodcutter."
Xu Yunjin can't explain hypnosis. No one except her own family knows that she can hypnotize.
"Maybe Mr. Xu drew a portrait of this person?"
Hearing Xu Yunjin's words, the steady Yuan Xuan couldn't help but speak a little anxiously.
"Of course you can."
Jiang Baiyu immediately took Xu Wen to the study, while Xu Yunjin stayed in the hall with Yuan Xuan.
"Er Master Zhao sent a message to Grand Master Zhao before. I received the message before I arrived in Kyoto. Magistrate Jiang and I were asked to secretly investigate Ha Ting's whereabouts. We came here for two days and found nothing. If I hadn't met you, I would still have made no progress.
.”
Yuan Xuan feels that Xu Yunjin is a lucky star. Wherever she appears, there is always good luck.
"It turns out that Uncle Zhao sent the news. We didn't know Uncle Zhao's identity before. My father was worried that the Northern Barbarians would incite the victims to cause trouble and take the opportunity to attack the city. But it was also a coincidence. If we hadn't happened to go to the mountains to look for water that night, we probably wouldn't have
I know that the Northern Barbarians actually want to sneak into Daqi."
"I'm afraid they are among the refugees outside the city. You should pay attention to safety when you live outside the city."
Yuan Xuan felt that although Xu Yunjin was a lucky star, he was always in trouble, so he couldn't help but remind him.
"Yes, yes, don't worry. Our village is very vigilant now. As long as strangers appear, we will quickly drive them away. Nothing will happen."
Xu Yunjin didn't know that she would be slapped in the face by this sentence soon.
After a while, Xu Wen and Jiang Baiyu came back with the painted portraits. Yuan Xuan immediately asked the whole city to search secretly. Seeing that someone was in charge of this matter, Xu Wen and Xu Yunjin returned to the city gate.
"You mean you met the person who was following you again."
As soon as Xu Yunjin returned, he told Xu Yunqing what happened in the city. Xu Yunqing frowned and glanced at Xu Yunjin.
"Ajin, please don't go out these days. I'm afraid those people will also want to get the prescription in your hand."
The Northern Barbarians like to eat meat, and it is normal to eat raw meat sometimes. If they were nearby, they would definitely know what Xu Yunjin had done in the past two days, and they might have something up his sleeve.
"Brother, I know, I will be careful."
Late at night, Yuan Xuan suddenly came outside Xu's tent with a few people. He was dirty, and Yuan Xuan's pretty face was also painted black like Xu Yunjin's.
"Mr. Xu, we found that those people were mixed with the refugees, but we did not find Hating's whereabouts. We were afraid that the blatant exploration would be discovered, and we wanted to pretend to be people who were fleeing with you. I wonder if we can communicate with the villagers in the past two days.
Live together.”
Xu Wen naturally had no objection, but he still asked Xu Yunqing to go to Xu Danian's tent to ask the village chief for his opinion. After a while, Xu Yunqing came back and told them to find a place to camp by themselves.
In this way, Yuan Xuan lived in a tent outside the city with a few followers.
The weather was unexpectedly good on the second day, and there was a bit of sun in the sky. Sisters Xu Yunjin, Luo Silan and Zhao Shuqin sat outside and held Xiao Xi'er in their arms to bask in the sun.
Chen Siyuan and Xu Yunzhao came to Xu Yunjin and said that someone was looking for her at the village chief's grandfather's house. Xu Yunjin got up and went to the tent of the village chief's house.
"Ah Jin, this is the shopkeeper of the medicine hall in the city. He said he wants to discuss a business with you. I'll go and guard it for you outside."
After Xu Danian finished speaking, he left the tent and sat at the door of the tent without walking far.
As soon as Xu Yunjin entered, she saw another familiar face. It was the person who followed them that day but was fed poison by her.
The other party was wearing silk and satin today, with a decent smile on his face. If Xu Yunjin hadn't seen his embarrassed appearance, he might have thought that this person was really a businessman.
"I wonder what the shopkeeper has to do with me?"
Xu Yunjin thought that Xu Yunqing was really a god. Sure enough, the Northern Barbarians came to find her.
Having guessed the other party's intention, he asked directly without being polite to him.
"Dr. Xu, our medicine hall wants to buy your prescription for killing insects at a high price. I don't know what Doctor Xu wants."
Xu Yunjin's heart moved. The money sent to her door would not be in vain, but how she earned the money was not up to her.
"I wonder how much money the shopkeeper will give?"
Seeing that Xu Yunjin was so easy to talk to, the man opposite smiled and stretched out a finger. Xu Yunjin rolled his eyes and said in a surprised tone:
"My master's secret recipe is only worth ten thousand taels. It's a little less, but since the shopkeeper is a cheerful person, I'll sell it to the shopkeeper."
Xu Yunjin pretended to be sad and compromised, but in fact, the villain inside could not help but jump up to three feet high.
"No, no, it's one thousand taels."
When the man saw that Xu Yunjin had misunderstood, he quickly waved his hand to explain, but when he saw Xu Yunjin's face immediately changed.
"My prescription is the master's secret recipe. How can I sell it for one thousand taels? If the shopkeeper is not sincere, you don't have to buy it, please."
Xu Yunjin said this and made a sign to see off guests.
"No, no, no, Doctor Xu, business involves you and me. The price can be negotiated. I'll ask our boss for instructions later."
The man had a grimace on his face. When he came, the boss gave an order that he must get this prescription. He thought that the other girl would be easy to handle, but Xu Yunjin was able to handle it.
"Okay, go ahead and come back as soon as possible. I'll wait for you here."
Seeing the man leaving the tent and walking towards the city gate alone, Xu Yunjin hurriedly ran out to call Yuan Xuan.
"Yuan Xuan, one of the people who followed us before, just came to me and said he wanted to buy a prescription for insecticide. I paid a high price, and the other person said he would go back and discuss it with his employer. I don't know if the so-called employer is that Hating.
He just left the tent of the village chief’s house and was wearing black clothes of good material, so it’s not too late to follow him now.”
Xu Yunjin was out of breath from running, grabbed Yuan Xuan's arm and said hurriedly.
"Second uncle, third uncle, go and follow."
Yuan Xuan supported Xu Yunjin and told Yuan Yuansan on the side to follow Xu Yunjin's instructions.
After the two of them left, Xu Yunjin took the water from Yuan Xuan, drank it, put down the cup, and returned to the village chief's tent. This chapter has been completed!
