"Why don't you ask for a priest?"

As soon as Xi Wei asked this question, he felt stupid.

Xiaopang looked at Xi Wei with strange eyes, hesitated for a while before continuing:

"My lord, have you forgotten? You killed all the priests... and even if the priest is still alive, we can't afford it. It costs a hundred gold coins to invite a priest to perform a healing technique."

"It never occurred to them to heal us."

Xi Wei touched his nose in embarrassment when he heard the words. It was useless for those priests to keep them. His thoughts at that time were very simple.

These priests were neither willing to serve the common people, nor to heal Loli, and even despised him, the lord.

Might as well send these sheepdogs to meet their gods.

"Well, I'll accompany you to buy medicine now, and you can take me to your house after buying medicine."

"As the lord, since my knights made a mistake, I must take care of it."

Xiaopang's eyes widened in disbelief. He was so fat that his eyes were narrowed into slits, but now Xi Wei could actually see his eyeballs.

"Will you really help us?"

Xi Wei nodded affirmatively.

……

There is only one pharmacy in the entire Winter City, and almost everyone who is sick or injured will come here to buy medicine.

Priest's healing skills are something only nobles can enjoy, and of course nobles can't enjoy them now.

The owner of the pharmacy is an old man with gray hair. His face looks weather-beaten, gray and rough, covered with deep wrinkles.

But in contrast, the old man's eyes are very bright.

According to Xiaopang, this old man who sold herbs for a living was once an alchemist, but his magic power source was crushed by someone, and he could no longer make potions.

But Xi Wei noticed thick calluses on the old man's palms and wrists, and secretly speculated that the old man's identity might not be that simple.

"Grandpa Parker, I want to buy some herbs for trauma."

The chubby ran to the old man's pharmacy and said nervously.

This is not the first time he has come to the old man's pharmacy to buy medicine. He has come here a few times before to buy wound medicine for his father.

He has always been a little afraid of this old man with bright eyes. Under those eagle-like eyes, he always has a feeling that he has nowhere to hide.

Old Parker had already noticed the two people walking straight up, he looked Xi Wei up and down, and recognized Xi Wei's identity at a glance.

"Good day, my lord."

Xi Wei nodded to Old Parker and did not speak.

Old Parker saluted Xi Wei in a neither humble nor overbearing manner, and then looked at Xiaopang, who was not as tall as the table, and said with a smile:

"It's Aubrey, it feels like you've gained weight again? What happened to your father this time, did he get hurt again because he went to get you wild game?"

Xiaopang was depressed when he heard the words, he shook his head, his voice was a little choked:

"Grandpa Parker, father can no longer get me wild game, because he died in battle three days ago."

After listening to Fatty's words, old Parker looked surprised, his smile gradually disappeared, and regret flashed in his eyes again.

He quite liked the boy who occasionally brought him a glass of sour beer, but he didn't expect to see him again after a while.

"I'm sorry, Aubrey, I..."

"Grandpa Parker, my father was an honorable soldier. I am proud of him and I will be like him in the future."

Xiaopang shook his head, sniffed his nose, and continued: "This time I came to get medicine for my mother. She was injured by a villain."

Old Parker didn't continue to ask why Xiaopang's mother was injured, he just turned around silently to look for herbs that could treat trauma.

For the injured person, every pointless inquiry is torture for the injured person.

Unless you can help them solve their problems.

"Here, Aubrey, this is the hemostatic grass, and this is the raw star grass. I have divided the portions for you. Take them back and boil them in the pot for an hour before giving them to your mother."

Old Parker quickly packed the two packs of herbs and put them in Xiaopang's hands. Suddenly, he touched Xiaopang's round head again and said encouragingly:

"You must grow up healthy and healthy... Protect your mother for your father."

Xiaopang nodded obediently when he heard this, and then took out a dozen copper coins from his pocket.

He counted carefully, took two out of it, and put the rest in the dustpan on the old man's desk.

Of course, the money was not enough to buy these herbs, but Old Parker didn't say anything. He didn't open the pharmacy to make money.

He smiled and took a copper coin from the dustpan, and returned the rest to Fatty. He waved his hand and said, "That's enough."

After bidding farewell to old Parker, Xi Wei, led by Xiaopang, wandered around for a long time before arriving in front of a low tile-roofed house in the outer city.

This is Xiaopang's home.

Xi Wei was a little puzzled. Although the salary of the sword and shield soldier was not as high as that of the knight, it was not enough to live in such a simple place.

"Mother, I'm back."

Xiaopang knocked on the door, and a woman's weak voice came from inside the room.

"Ahem—Aubrey is back? You can open the door yourself, it's not convenient for mom to walk now."

Xi Wei didn't immediately follow Xiaopang into the house, and he didn't follow until Xiaopang came out of the room again to call him in.

As soon as I entered the room, I was greeted by a strong smell of herbs mixed with the stench of festering wounds and inflammation.

With the dim light, Xi Wei could see a thin woman lying on her side on the bed, she looked very haggard and tired.

Xiaopang had already told the woman the ins and outs of Xi Wei's arrival, but she still looked a little frightened, struggling to sit up from the bed.

"My lord, the woman..."

"You just lie down and talk, you don't need to see outsiders, this is an order."

Xi Wei stretched out his hand and gently pushed the woman back, and probed the woman's body with a trace of vindictiveness.

Xi Wei couldn't help frowning, the chubby mother not only suffered trauma, but also suffered from severe lung disease.

This can explain why they live in such a poor place. It is estimated that the salary of Xiaopang's father is used to treat his wife.

Even the priest can't do anything about this disease, and can only be baptized with holy water condensed by faith.

But in the borderland of Winter City, where to get holy water, it is a precious resource that only the capital of the kingdom can have.

But it's not completely impossible, Xi Wei has a premonition.

Yesterday, when Lori was enlightening, the ability corresponding to the aura emanating from her body can definitely solve the current problem.

It seems that we have to seize the time to go back and wake up the little maid.

Xi Wei didn't talk too much nonsense, and asked straight to the point:

"It is said that your pension was robbed by a group of people, and there are knights behind this group of people to support?"

The woman nodded sadly when she heard the words, tears welled up immediately, and she cried sadly:

"...My lord, can you help us? It's Bolt and his gang. They are rogues in the outer city, and they usually live by collecting protection fees."

"Not long after the master knight who sent the pension left that day, they came up, took away the pension, and beat me like this, huh..."

"They also said that they can go to them for revenge at any time. Behind them is the knight master and the lord..."

"Bastard!"

When Xi Wei heard the words, the veins on his forehead bulged out of anger, and he clenched his fists.

Not only did this group of dogs do all kinds of evil, but they also used his name?

He wants to see who is the knight behind this group of rascals. If there is such a person, then this person will definitely receive the most severe punishment.
