Hou Jiuming frowned as he looked at the figure under the courtyard wall, with no flesh on his body and dripping with blood.
"what's the situation?"
When I first heard the noise, I thought it was some thieves, or someone bold enough to come out for revenge.
Unexpectedly, when he went out, he saw a seriously injured person.
"Hello...brother~" The figure lying on the ground heard the movement, raised his head with difficulty, and saw clearly through the moonlight that the person at the door was exactly the person he was looking for.
"Huh?" The familiar voice immediately caught Hou Jiuming's attention, and he quickly stepped forward to see who it was.
"Who are you?" The person in front of him had dirt all over his face and his hair was tangled. Even in the daytime, let alone the moonlight, his mother would be able to recognize him.
"Shi...Zhongquan" the feeble voice made Hou Jiuming raise his eyebrows, "Let me go, brother, what's going on with you? Why are you half dead every time I see you?
What sin did you commit in your previous life to make you so unlucky?"
This is so unlucky. The first time I saw this guy was when he was in the wild. It seemed that some disaster relief food had been robbed, he was being chased, and he was injured all over his body.
If I hadn't bumped into him, I might have burped.
The second time, he was still being chased. He probably wouldn't have survived if he hadn't happened to meet him. After all, the injury was already a bit suppurative.
This time it was better, we came directly to the door.
Is this treating him as a savior or a shield?
Although his words were a little unforgiving, no matter what, it was just an acquaintance, and Hou Jiuming would not be willing to die without saving him.
Enduring the unpleasant stench, he picked up his clothes and walked to the woodshed.
Forget about guest rooms or anything like that.
If we bring this in, will we be able to let people live in it in the future?
When I got to the woodshed, I got some water and gave him a rinse first. Then I took out the medicine for external injuries and medicine for internal injuries and applied it to him.
When I was busy, there were footsteps outside from time to time.
In addition, there were sounds of knocking on the door and arrogant reprimands.
Without looking, he knew that this was the person searching for Shi Zhongquan.
However, I didn’t worry about anyone daring to come and search.
Ever since the incident with the Iron Fist Gang, the forces in the city have told their subordinates not to provoke him.
From then on, not to mention those who came to collect protection fees, even the heads of big families had to be careful when visiting Sihai Tea House, for fear of accidentally offending him.
Therefore, even if it was noisy outside, he was not worried that someone would break in and search.
After treating the injury, probably because the medicine had taken effect, Shi Zhongquan quickly woke up. When he saw Hou Jiuming in front of him, he immediately said gratefully.
"Brother Hou, you have saved me from danger time and time again. You are so kind and kind that I cannot repay you. If I am of any use to you, I will go through fire and water without hesitation."
For Hou Jiu Ming, Shi Zhong was grateful from the bottom of his heart. He saved him several times without asking for anything in return. He was definitely a first-class good person in this world.
Therefore, after escaping this time, I thought of him immediately.
"Okay, stop talking about this and recover well. Those people won't search here!"
After saying that, he was ready to leave. After all, after a long night, he could still practice for a long time.
"etc……"
Seeing Hou Jiuming about to leave, Shi Zhongquan quickly stopped him. He still needed help for important matters and could not delay.
"What's wrong? Is there anything else?" Hou Jiuming turned around and looked at Shi Zhongquan and asked.
"Brother Hou, I do have something to trouble you!" Shi Zhongquan said solemnly.
"Since you know it's trouble, don't say anything!"
Hou Jiuming was always kind to Shi Zhongquan and never owed him anything. To be honest, he was a little unhappy when the other party came to visit him rashly this time.
After all, if it weren't for his intimidation, the people searching tonight would definitely not let Sihai Tea House go.
If he is an ordinary person and is searched, the result can be imagined.
In addition, Shi Zhongquan has the status of a close guard of the imperial court, and those people still dare to pursue him. It is conceivable that there must be big trouble involved.
He is a cultivator of immortality and a person who is determined to live forever. He doesn't have enough time to practice, so he will make do with these things.
So, I simply refused.
Not only that, he just picked up his feet and left after he finished speaking, not wanting to tangle with Shi Zhongquan at all.
I originally thought that with the relationship between the two of them, Hou Jiuming would not refuse, but I didn't expect that he wouldn't even give him a chance to speak.
Such decisiveness made Shi Zhongquan stay there. It wasn't until Hou Jiuming was about to walk out of the woodshed door that he woke up and said quickly.
"Brother Hou, wait a minute. I have an important piece of news that is related to life and death. Please listen to what I have to say."
"A matter of life and death?" These words made Hou Jiuming stop in his steps, and he became interested in what he said was a matter of life and death.
So, he turned around and stood at the door and said, "Tell me, let me see what is it that can actually affect Mr. Hou's life or death?"
"Brother Hou, Qianyu Kingdom has taken a detour to Shanyue, and the first stop is Solid Stone City..."
As Shi Zhongquan told him, Hou Jiuming also understood why he said it was a matter of life and death.
It turned out that the Qianyu Kingdom took the lead in launching an attack, bypassing the defenders of the Shanyue Kingdom and rushing towards Jianshi City.
Not only that, the city lord of Solid Stone City has betrayed Huanyue and defected to Qianyu Nation.
The first time Shi Zhongquan was hunted down was planned from beginning to end by the city lord of Solid Stone City.
He robbed the imperial court's food and gave it to the Qianyu Kingdom across the way, and then summoned the big families to collect food to help the victims.
The purpose is to use up all the food in Jianshi City and cause chaos in the city. When the time comes, the Qianyu Kingdom will come to accept management.
After all, we already don’t have enough to eat in the Yue Kingdom. Does it matter which country we are from?
Not only that, the city lord also secretly recruited the Babao Gang, a large gang in Solid Rock City, to cause trouble among the victims.
Some time ago, they contributed a lot to the chaos caused by the disaster outside the city.
After listening to this, Hou Jiuming fell into deep thought.
"It seems that we can't stay here for a long time. The time for the Wang Family's workshop is coming soon. I just happened to go there to have a look.
However, the dynasty of the Shaoyue Kingdom is supported by the Wang family. If the Qianyu Kingdom comes to attack, will the immortal cultivators behind the two countries also have to fight?
If this is the case, can the market still be opened?"
In fact, mortal wars don't matter to him. After all, his martial arts has reached the innate level and his magic power is in the middle stage of Qi training. This kind of strength is definitely the highest level for mortals.
Even if you face thousands of armies, you can still retreat calmly.
The reason why he wanted to leave was because war would bring chaos to the world.
At that time, it was a bit inappropriate to practice cultivation in the mortal world.
Because, if life is no longer possible, who would go into the mountains to collect medicine?
I stayed here just to collect these things. Now that they are gone, why stay here?
Are you waiting to copy the immortal cultivators who occasionally pass by?
Isn’t there more in Fangshi?
"So, should we leave directly and go to Wangjiafang City, or should we wait and see if there will be immortal cultivators in the battle between Hanyue and Qianyu?" This chapter has been completed!
