On the plank road opposite, Zhuge Ming saw the immortal standing with his hands behind his back, and his whole body was surrounded by true energy like mist.
The next moment, Liu Ruyan also grabbed the rope and swung over.
At this time, Zhuge Ming and Bai Zhi were all focused on Shen Yanchu, and did not notice that she came to the plank road and took out Dr. Zhang's body from the system space.
After doing all this, Shen Yanchu came towards him, and Liu Ruyan also raised her head to look at him.
Her face was solemn, and Shen Yan, the clinker, didn't even look at her at first and walked straight past her.
"Stop—" she asked, "where are you going?"
Shen Yanchu paused, turned his eyes and looked at her lightly: "Who are you?"
Liu Ruyan almost couldn't stand it anymore. After just one day of absence, the devil's amnesia actually got worse???
Standing in front of Shen Yanchu at this time was a woman with disheveled hair and a messy body. He took a casual look at her and realized, well, he really didn't recognize her.
"I am your Mr. Liu!" She suddenly thought of something and pulled her black hair into a man's bun.
Shen Yanchu finally recognized it: "Liu Ruyan?"
Liu Ruyan frowned: "Fortunately you arrived in time, otherwise everyone would have to explain here."
The person who was almost injured heard the sudden roll call and came out in time to show his face: "Zhuge Ming, thank you very much for saving me. I don't know, what should I call you?"
Facing Zhuge Ming's eager eyes, Shen Yanchu just turned his eyes away and glanced at him coldly.
Zhuge Ming couldn't help but shiver.
"This person's surname is Shen. He is a nobody and is not worthy of mentioning." Liu Ruyan took over for him.
"It turns out it's Brother Shen, I'm Zhuge Ming, and the person next to me is the medicine fairy Baizhi."
Seeing that Bai Zhi was also present, Shen Yanchu couldn't help but look at him a few more times.
At this time, Bai Zhi and Liu Ruyan were standing together, and they had a perfect tacit understanding with each other, which made him feel unhappy for no reason.
Shen Yanchu, who was suddenly alone, felt inexplicably irritated. He silently moved between the two of them, squeezing the boy named Bai aside.
Bai Zhi: "..." I should be dazzled.
There was a sound of piercing the air in his ears, and Shen Yanchu suddenly took action, shooting an arrow from his fingers, which was the same one he had sneaked into earlier.
The flying arrow collided head-on with the dark arrow shrouded in the night. The two arrows struck each other in mid-air, making a clanging sound.
Shen Yanchu pursed his lips slightly and looked at the man holding the bow.
At the same time, under his intimidating pressure, Guo Shiquan once again drew his bow, pulled the string, and fired three arrows in succession, encircling him in three directions: upper, middle and lower.
"Don't overestimate your own capabilities." Shen Yanchu immediately took action, and the strong wind swept him across the air and hit him on the other side.
The three arrows broke in response, and a strong burst of true energy instantly knocked Guo Shiquan to the ground.
Guo Shiquan finally realized that he was afraid, so he hurriedly got up and hid in the stone alley, fearing that the other party would be cruel again.
"Why, you still don't want to leave?" Shen Yanchu said aggressively.
Guo Shiquan gritted his teeth and shouted to the villagers: "Let's go!"
Within a moment, the villagers at the foot of the mountain fled, leaving a mess on the ground.
At this time, Liu Ruyan's sea of consciousness was also accompanied by a prompt: "Successfully completed the plot and earned two hundred points."
She looked at everyone: "While there is still daylight, we should get to Hang Hau Village first."
From the plank road to the village, it takes about a hundred steps, and then a large area of farmland appears.
Across the fields, there are scattered farmhouses. Perhaps because the village is very quiet at night, I occasionally hear a few barking dogs.
Liu Ruyan knocked on one of the farmhouses. It was the old man who had visited before.
After waiting for a moment, the old man stood up and opened the door. When he saw several people visiting late at night, he was also surprised.
The old man looked towards the valley in the distance and pointed with his finger: "Are you from Taiping Village?"
Zhuge Ming scratched his hair slightly awkwardly: "We escaped..."
"Quick, get in the house quickly." The old man led Zhuge Ming and the others into the farmhouse, and then got into the kitchen, busy turning on the stove and boiling water.
When the tea was served, he looked at the body wrapped in a coat beside Zhuge Ming: "This is it?"
When the injured area was touched, Zhuge Ming's face froze, and he immediately covered his mouth, unable to speak.
"It's Dr. Zhang from Renxintang. He accidentally suffered a heart attack when he escaped." Liu Ruyan broke the silence and lowered her eyes again.
The old man sat at the table and let out a long sigh: "Mr. Zhang and I have been friends for half a lifetime. If I had known this, I shouldn't have let him enter the valley in the first place. I was really confused."
His face was full of shame, and he held his hand tightly: "Mr. Zhang is a kind-hearted man. He has saved countless people in his life. How did he... end up in this situation..."
The old man shed tears as he spoke.
No one in the room spoke, they looked at the gray-haired old man quietly.
The old man turned his face, hid his tears, raised his head and touched his forehead: "Look at my memory, you haven't eaten yet, I'll go to the kitchen to get some hot food to fill your stomach."
Zhuge Ming also stood up quickly: "I'm here to help you."
In the backyard, several people were sitting around a table, and the aroma of vegetables was floating on the table. The old man specially took out the venison that was not stored much, and mixed it with fungus and mushrooms. It was a rare delicacy in this winter.
Several people were carrying rice bowls, but they still didn't take down their chopsticks.
Zhuge Ming looked at the rice in the bowl and remembered that Doctor Zhang had never even eaten hot rice before his death.
"What are you doing here? I've been hungry all day. Eat quickly." The old man said, picked up the venison with chopsticks and put it in Zhuge Ming's bowl.
Immediately, he added a piece of meat for Liu Ruyan and the others.
After finishing the meal, Liu Ruyan helped clean up the dishes. The dogs kept barking outside the yard. She was always alert and heard the difference in the sounds.
"Someone is coming." She stopped and looked in the direction of the door.
The old man got up and walked out: "I'll go out and take a look."
After a while, the old man left and came back, and said to Liu Ruyan and the others: "I've seen the old man. He is said to be from Taiyuan Prefecture and wants to go to the village to find his master."
Several people looked at each other, and suddenly, there was another knock on the door.
Liu Ruyan also followed and saw two men dressed as servants standing at the door, holding lanterns in their hands.
"My master came to your village not long ago and has not returned yet. I wonder if you have seen him?" As he said this, the boy took out a portrait.
Doctor Zheng?
Zhuge Ming and Liu Ruyan recognized this man as the doctor who was killed by the villagers not long ago.
The old man narrowed his eyes, looked carefully for a while, and said suddenly: "I have seen this person before. At that time, he asked me about the origin of Huang Zhi's rumors, and then went to Taiping Village."
Finally, he found out the whereabouts of the old man. He bowed to the old man for blessing and said with a smile: "My old man came to Youzhou to meet friends. He heard about Huang Zhi's incident on the way, and then he thought of his old mother who was lingering on the bed at home. Her health was getting worse every year. The old man immediately resigned from the friendship.
, I came here to ask for medicine for my mother."
Another boy also continued: "I hope Mr. Zheng's trip can come true. I won't disturb the old man and say goodbye."
Seeing that the other party was about to leave, the old man quickly stopped him: "You can't enter that village!"
"How do you say this?" The boy was surprised.
The old man gritted his teeth and told him bluntly: "You have been deceived. There is no such thing as Huang Zhi in the village. They caught your master for evil purposes."
Zhuge Ming also dissuaded him: "I, Zhuge Ming, am a doctor. I was deceived by them. I was trapped in the mountains for three days and three nights. No, I just escaped from the village."
Qi Fu's expression changed several times: "You never tricked me?"
"There is absolutely no lie. Those villagers pretended to be bandits, imprisoned doctors, robbed merchants of money, and even killed people when they got mad!" Zhuge Ming explained kindly.
"Why are you the only ones who escaped? Where is my master?"
"He..." Zhuge Ming was evasive, not even daring to look at the boy.
"Speak quickly, where is my master!" Qi Fu said angrily, the paper lantern in his hand kept shaking, the flames flickered, and his face looked ferocious, "You are a bitch, you left my master in such a ghost place, you still call yourself
It’s a doctor whose conscience has been eaten by dogs!”
All the servants in Zheng's house cursed him, smashed the lanterns immediately, and rushed into the house, tense for a moment.
Suddenly, a ray of cold light flew past, and there was only a "clang" sound, and a chill hit my neck, and a few strands of hair were cut off by a sharp weapon.
He turned around, and there was a thin-edged flying knife stuck on the doorframe at his hand.
"stop."
After praying for blessings, I looked around and saw a young man standing behind Zhuge Ming.
"Who are you?" Qifu asked.
"It doesn't matter who I am." Liu Ruyan looked at the young man from the Zheng Mansion with a cold face, "These doctors all escaped death, but your master..."
She lowered her eyes: "He has been killed."
Qifu was stunned on the spot, his expression dull for a moment: "You mean, Mr. Zheng is gone?"
Liu Ruyan nodded slightly.
"Why is it gone..." Qi Fu murmured, with a daze on his face for a moment, "It was fine before, but I just went out for a trip, why is it gone?"
He turned around slowly: "If I go back, how should I explain to the old lady?"
When another boy heard the bad news for the first time, he couldn't accept it for a while. After he calmed down, he whispered to the prayer: "My master is dying in a foreign land. We, the servants, are not good at protecting our master, and I'm afraid we will be killed with a stick."
"Killing pays for life, we cannot die in vain!" Qifu said word by word, his eyes swept over everyone in the room, and he suddenly stepped out.
"Where are you going?" Zhuge Ming asked hurriedly when he saw that the man looked unhappy.
Qifu glanced back at him: "Why, if there is a murder case, don't you want to report it to the official?"
"Let them go." Liu Ruyan knew that these people would not give up. "With several murder cases in succession, this matter will become a big deal sooner or later."
Bai Zhi, who had been silent all this time, shook her head when she saw this, and sighed: "Taiping Village, there is no peace anymore."
