Incredible

Shen Yao was about to speak when Yuntang smiled and said, "I'm just kidding you too."

After finishing speaking, she warned again: "The bloody disaster at Qinhuai Tower...don't claim to be there. Without the support of aristocratic families, be careful not to cause trouble."

She was talking to Wei Lingfeng.

But Shen Yao heard the news for the first time, and asked the bottom line: "What is the bloody disaster in Qinhuai Tower?"

Wei Lingfeng said: "After the ugly hour tonight, the disciples of the Jialan Sect assembled a group of swordsmen from the rivers and lakes and killed many people in Qinhuai Tower."

Shen Yao said bluntly: "Is there something wrong with their brains?"

Wei Lingfeng nodded slightly: "Killing people is not the main task. They set fire to fuel and attract the attention of the government."

Shen Yao said: "Government?"

Wei Lingfeng said: "Tonight coincides with Duan's warriors patrolling the city."

Shen Yao has never dealt with people from the government.He only knows that those with high martial arts skills can take the road of "martial arts selection" and serve the current imperial court.

However, knights in the rivers and lakes pay attention to a "come and go freely, do not eat imperial food", the five great families and the eight sects have always been in harmony with the imperial court.

Shen Yao pondered: "Is the wife of Liangzhou prefect Duan Yongxuan's younger sister? I heard from others."

He thought to himself: Sword Immortal is worthy of being a Sword Immortal, his younger sister is married to the prefect of Liangzhou, his wife is an apprentice of a famous teacher, and his two sons are superb in martial arts—although one of them seems to be lost.

He changed his mind and thought again: I don't know if what Tan Taiche told himself is true or not... He pretended not to understand at the time and made jokes, but in fact his heart was shaken.

Cheng Xueluo's voice interrupted Shen Yao's train of thought: "Duan Yongxuan's younger sister and Liangzhou prefect are husband and wife. So, what do you want to say?"

Shen Yao said casually: "Husband and wife, love is deep and righteous."

But Yun Tang said: "If you remember the love of your children, what's the point?"

Shen Yao urged her to take the medicine, and then said: "The Qinhuai Building was brutally washed out, the warriors of the Duan family drew their swords to help, and the prefect of Liangzhou will give them the credit. In a few days, the news will spread throughout the martial arts world..."

Unexpectedly, he stopped talking immediately, and asked again: "What are these things?"

Yuntang smiled without saying a word.

Cheng Xueluo remained silent as usual.

Wei Lingfeng took Shen Yao out.

Shen Yao was belatedly worried and said: "Brother, you were not accidentally injured by someone from the Jialan faction, right?"

Wei Lingfeng said: "No, don't worry."

Shen Yao took his pulse: "You let me feel the pulse, so I can rest assured."

Wei Lingfeng was unscathed.Shen Yao quietly let go, and his wide sleeves scraped against him: "Did Cheng Xueluo use force? The wound on his arm has not healed, so he cannot draw his sword."

Wei Lingfeng said truthfully: "He used force. He saved a person."

As soon as Shen Yao stopped, he turned back immediately.

Inside, Yuntang was still whispering to Cheng Xueluo.Her dress was neat, she stood up straight with a wall, her breath gradually stabilized, but her legs were weak, and she accidentally bumped into Cheng Xueluo.The hairpin he bought tonight fell on the ground and was picked up by Yun Tang.

He immediately said, "For you."

She asked again: "Did you specially buy a hairpin?"

Cheng Xueluo said, "It's just on the way."

Yuntang was silent, and it took a while before he smiled and said, "I like it very much."

She looked up at him: "Thank you."

The door was not closed, Shen Yao didn't know whether he should enter or not.He held the medicine box in his right hand, tapped twice with his left hand, and finally got in.He cleared his throat, checked Cheng Xueluo's injuries, and sure enough, there were faint cracks.

Shen Yaoqian reminded Wan Wan: "From now on, within five days, don't draw out your sword. This is not a minor injury. I don't know who cut you... That person is so powerful, he can be a chef, and he cut very deeply. , and very neat, it cuts the tendons and veins, and hurts the muscles and bones."

Yun Tang said: "I forgot about it, I shouldn't let you go out."

Shen Yao gave a step: "It's okay, but you must rest. You should worry less and rest earlier."

After speaking, he carried the medicine box and left.

Wei Lingfeng was waiting for him at the door.

Shen Yao said: "What time is it?"

Wei Lingfeng walked up the steps: "It's almost dawn."

Shen Yao expressed his feelings: "It's really an extraordinary day."

He doesn't feel sleepy, let alone sleep.Just when the rain stopped and the clouds disappeared, a layer of fish-belly white was slightly exposed on the horizon, the sky was pierced by the sun, and the fresh smell of grass and trees soaked in water was permeating the outdoors.

Shen Yao was thinking about Xu Xingxiu, so he asked Wei Lingfeng if he could go back to Duan's house now.

Wei Lingfeng agreed.The two bid farewell to the right guardian, walked through the tunnel of the house, finally walked out of a bamboo forest, and bypassed several criss-crossing deep alleys, and came to the morning market on the East Street.

Shen Yao looked around and sighed, "Liangzhou is a good place. If it rained so heavily in Qingguan Town, the streets would definitely be knee-deep in water... the streets of Liangzhou are intact as before."

In the morning market, there are not a few businesses that are open.

Shen Yao bought two buns, one of which was given to Wei Lingfeng.While eating, he heard someone say, "The Qinhuai Tower fell down. Last night, I don't know how many people died."

☆, Morrowind

Holding the steaming steamed bun, Shen Yao turned his head to look at passers-by.He asked: "Brother, do you still remember Liu Qingqing? The gang of warriors who bullied her in Qingguan Town that day were also members of the Jialan Sect."

Wei Lingfeng pondered for a moment, and replied: "The Jialan faction has always protected its weaknesses."

"Well, I know," Shen Yao nodded, "but, this time, they are doing evil in Qinhuai Tower, even if the martial arts leader comes forward, they probably won't be able to keep them."

Wei Lingfeng looked at him: "Not necessarily."

Shen Yao stopped: "Why?"

Shen Yao paused, and lowered his voice: "Most of the girls in Qinhuai Tower are unarmed. This is a massacre... The Jialan Sect kills and pays for their lives, it is only right and proper! Their actions are neither in line with the morals of the Jianghu, nor in line with the laws of the government. .”

Wei Lingfeng suggested: "After you go back to Duan's house, you might as well ask Duan's family for their opinion."

Shen Yao was puzzled: "They think differently from me?"

Before Wei Lingfeng answered, Shen Yao looked up at the sky: "I'll go to Duan Wuhen first."

Wei Lingfeng stopped him with a voice: "Duan Wuhen has not recovered from his serious injury and needs to rest."

Shen Yao was extremely surprised: "Duan Wuhen also got down on the ground? His swordsmanship is superb, how could he be seriously injured?"

Reminiscent of Cheng Xueluo's wound, Shen Yao suddenly had a flash of inspiration, and thought to himself: Cheng Xueluo and Duan Wuhen are brothers who have similar appearances and personalities, and they did something wrong to make it to this point.

Wei Lingfeng told Shen Yao that at noon today, he was going to decoct medicine for Duan Wuhen, and if Shen Yao wanted to visit Duan Wuhen, he could go with him.

Shen Yao immediately agreed.

Before the hour came, Shen Yao and Wei Lingfeng walked outside the side door of Duan's house.The swordsman guarding the gate had heard their names, but he still chose to inform his superiors and refused to open the gate directly.

Shen Yao hadn't slept all night, and now he began to feel tired and weak.He leaned against the wall and glanced at the two swordsmen guarding the gate.

The two swordsmen had serious faces, their lips were tightly pursed, and their eyes were bloodshot... Yesterday they were brutally ransacked by the masters of the Demon Cult, and they still haven't recovered from the grief.One of them even turned livid, and his face turned black.

Shen Yao handed him a bottle of medicine: "Bupleurum Xiaoyao Powder."

The man froze for a moment and asked, "What?"

Shen Yao introduced the curative effect: "Soothing the liver and relieving stagnation, nourishing the heart and nourishing the mind." After speaking, he put his wrist on his wrist and diagnosed: "The formula is mild, you can eat it. Take it a day, and it will be effective in three days."

The man stared at Shen Yao with complicated eyes, and his nostrils shrank suddenly.

Although he was moved by Shen Yao's words, it could be seen that he still had a trace of doubt in his heart.

Just at this time, someone sent a message from the side door, the swordsmen got the order, opened the door immediately, and respectfully invited Shen Yao and Wei Lingfeng to enter.When Shen Yao crossed the threshold, the swordsman with a blackened seal suddenly reached out to him. Shen Yao understood and handed a bottle of "Bupleurum Xiaoyao Powder" to his palm.

Then, the side door was closed with a bang.

Shen Yao turned around and looked forward, only to see Xu Xingxiu standing with his hands behind his back.He was wearing a green shirt, and his figure was as tall and straight as a long bamboo.

Shen Yao suddenly felt sorry for him.

Xu Xingxiu smiled at them, the smile was warmer than the sun: "Breakfast is ready. Let's go, go eat."

Facts have proved that Xu Xingxiu is not without grievances.

At the breakfast table, Shen Yao asked him: "Brother, you last night..."

Before he finished speaking, Xu Xingxiu sneered: "Don't call me! You still know I'm your senior brother?"

Shen Yao cheated: "My seniors are all young men with exquisite medical skills, personable manners and dignified looks. I think you are my seniors."

Xu Xingxiu was still sneering: "Don't think I can pretend nothing happened by saying a few nice words!"

Shen Yao peeled off an egg and put it in Xu Xingxiu's bowl: "Oh, I didn't have a choice at the time. People from the Fuhua Sect showed up and took me away. There was no time to leave a letter for you."

Xu Xingxiu put his chopsticks on the edge of the bowl: "You and Wei Lingfeng suddenly disappeared. I went to visit the head of the Duan family in the middle of the night, but was turned away by his servants. I went to visit Chu Kairong again, but was rejected by his maid... ..."

Shen Yao was surprised when he heard this: "What did the maid do to you?"

Xu Xingxiu rested his forehead with his left hand: "It's nothing."

Shen Yao saw that he was irritable and forbearing, so he deduced: "That girl, she must have despised you because of her lust."

Xu Xingxiu knocked on Shen Yao's head: "Be more serious."

Shen Yao served a bowl of porridge for Xu Xingxiu, and encouraged him: "Yes! I'm serious, senior brother, if you have any secrets to hide, you must say it clearly, and senior brother and I will share your worries together."

Wei Lingfeng also said: "But it doesn't matter."

Xu Xingxiu confessed to them: the incident happened suddenly last night.He ran to Chu Kairong's door in the middle of the night and frantically knocked on the door, but no one responded.Regardless of the rules and etiquette, he climbed the wall and entered the main entrance, walked all the way, and entered the inner room.

Shen Yao felt strange, so he asked, "Then, did you see Chu Kairong's maid?"

Xu Xingxiu nodded: "It's such a big room with very few people."

Shen Yao said: "What did that girl do to you? Molested you?"

Xu Xingxiu said: "It's not that serious. She just drew her sword and cut me."

Shen Yao couldn't help holding his shoulder: "Brother, your experience last night is much more dangerous than ours."

Holding the teacup, Xu Xingxiu murmured, "I ran out of Chu Kairong's wing, and met the Duan family's night guard. That girl didn't chase her out, so I saved my life."

Shen Yao concluded hesitantly: "That is to say, last night, Chu Kairong was not in his room, nor were his bodyguards. Wherever Chu Kairong went, the bodyguards would go. ah."

Xu Xingxiu interrupted him: "I can't guess what Chu Kairong is doing, so you'd better not guess."

Wei Lingfeng asked, "Have you heard about Qinhuai Tower?"

Xu Xingxiu nodded slightly.

The atmosphere was silent for a while, and no one continued to speak.

After dinner, Xu Xingxiu went back to his room to catch up on sleep, and Shen Yao followed Wei Lingfeng to organize the medicinal materials.The rainwater accumulated on the eaves last night, slid down little by little, and landed on the steps, with a faint "tick-tick" sound.

Rising in the morning?? Tarzan? Tiaoyuba?? Chenshou?? Xuanchu∮E?

Shen Yao sat by the window and suddenly remembered something: "Brother."

Wei Lingfeng responded, "Ah Yao, you can go back to sleep."

He took away the herbs in Shen Yao's hand.

Shen Yao was slightly startled, shook his head and said, "I want to ask you a few questions."

Wei Lingfeng crushed a bag of poria cocos: "About last night?"

Shen Yao folded his hands on the table: "Last night, you came to me in the rain, why didn't your clothes get wet? Also, Yuntang's illness was insanity. It was almost the same as your condition back then. I remember it very clearly. .”

He sat next to Wei Lingfeng and said in a low voice: "I remembered one more thing. I found the Guangbing Sword and the "Tianxiao King Kong Jue" in Anjiang City. That "Tianxiao King Kong Jue" is really difficult to understand, but You seem to be taking it easy."

He patted Wei Lingfeng on the back: "Brother, you came to the Danyi school when you were seven years old. What were you doing before you were seven years old?"

A few months ago, Chu Kairong had warned Shen Yao that his elder brother was not a pure and good person.Shen Yao was very angry at that time, and even gnawed at Chu Kairong's meal, but now, Shen Yao reconsidered Chu Kairong's remarks.

He suddenly heard Wei Lingfeng say: "Before we left, I told you that it might be a good thing to stay in Qingguan Town for the rest of our lives."

Shen Yao smiled and said, "Senior brother, don't be so serious."

He held Wei Lingfeng's shoulders tightly, and his loose sleeves draped over him: "As for me, I also thought that you once said that on the way to the No. , you also have to lift your clothes and kneel down, kowtow and shout for mercy... I suddenly discovered recently that you don't need to beg for mercy at all."

While counting the medicinal materials, Wei Lingfeng replied: "Not necessarily... I have knelt before. As for how many times I kowtowed, I forgot. It doesn't matter if you forget, it's not honorable to be left or right."

Shen Yao approached him: "Kneeling?"

Wei Lingfeng explained in detail: "I knelt down and begged for my life."

Shen Yao gathered his five fingers together and grabbed his clothes tightly.

Wei Lingfeng's clothes were messed up by him.

Therefore, Wei Lingfeng no longer arranged the medicinal materials, but straightened his collar.Shen Yao tugged him again, messing up his appearance and attire again, he simply ignored it, the clothes slipped off, but he still sat upright.

The robe was draped over Wei Lingfeng's arm, his shoulders were exposed, and he was writing with a pen.

Shen Yao hooked him with one hand, his wrist was pressed against his shoulder, and he talked eloquently: "If you are willing to make it clear to me, I will be there for you at any time. If you don't want to, that's okay. You are my elder brother after all. Today I am here I swear, I, Shen Yao, will treat you well for the rest of my life."

Wei Lingfeng has always written neatly, the paper is clean and free from dust.

However, after listening to Shen Yao's words, he hung the pen between his fingers, and the ink dripped onto the paper.

Shen Yao closed his clothes and lay down quietly by the table.The morning breeze was soft, blowing him drowsy.

When he was half asleep and half awake, it seemed that someone was stroking his forehead.His hair was tied loosely, and the headband was about to slip off, but the man still lifted his hair, moving quietly and slowly, and re-tied his headband into a knot.

He seemed to feel something, and read: "Brother?"

Wei Lingfeng responded, "Well, it's me."

Near noon, Wei Lingfeng walked to the room where Duan Wuhen was with a bundle of medicinal materials.

Shen Yao walked with him.The two walked through the long corridor, Shen Yao looked around and said regretfully, "It's changed a lot."

Yesterday, the masters of the two opposing parties fought fiercely here.

Wei Lingfeng and Shen Yao met several guests from the Duan family, all of them looked sad and hesitant to speak, and with the Qinhuai Tower incident last night, they couldn't laugh even if they wanted to.

One of them also revealed: "Earlier this morning, the prefect of Liangzhou..."

Shen Yao asked: "How is it? What happened to the prefect of Liangzhou?"

The man said: "We have sent Captain Zhao."

Speaking of Captain Zhao, Shen Yao had heard a little bit about it.

Zhao Duwei's real name is Zhao Ronghao, and he was born in a martial arts family in the Central Plains.As a young man, he determined to serve the community. Before he was 20 years old, he passed the No. 1 exam in "Wuxuan". However, during a certain battle, he was unfortunately injured by the enemy's ankle, and he has been lame since then.

People in the Jianghu laughed that he was born in the Zhao family and worked for the imperial court, but he would never be able to be reused.Therefore, people gave him nicknames: "Zhao Lame" and "Zhao Nanping".

When Shen Yao first heard about this, he thought in his heart: The mouths of people in the Jianghu are really bad enough.

☆, rumors

Shen Yao asked again: "What am I yours?"

Huang Banxia respectfully said: "Brother!"

Shen Yao taught him: "Brother for a day, brother for life. From now on, if you see any good medicinal materials, first bring them to honor your elder brother; if you get any delicious food, first bring them to your elder brother to taste."

Huang Banxia's eyes fell aside.

In front of the courtyard of a nearby family, a red sign was posted. Swollen Zheng? Qi? The word robbed? Jie???

Seeing this, Shen Yao said with relief: "I won't treat you badly either. In the future, if you want to get married..."

Shen Yao was about to make a statement: I can help you connect, but Huang Banxia, ​​who was standing by the side, was already furious: "Shen Yao, you are too deceitful! I haven't gotten married yet, and you start thinking about my wife?"

Shen Yao reprimanded seriously: "Who cares about your wife? The heart of a villain judges the belly of a gentleman, and I will punish you to recite "Treatise on Febrile Diseases" silently three times today."

Before Huang Banxia went out, his father asked him to take Shen Yao and his party back to the pharmacy.

Huang Banxia followed his father's order and dared not argue with Shen Yao any more.

Shen Yao hooked his shoulders with him: "I'm not bragging, I've seen a girl who looks like a fairy two or three times, and there is no movement in my heart. I have already jumped out of the world of mortals, and I have seen through the boring colors."

Huang Banxia didn't believe it: "Really?"

Shen Yao nodded: "Of course it is true, if you don't believe me, ask my brother."

Huang Banxia asked curiously: "Miss Tianxian...what does she look like?"

Hearing this conversation, Xu Xingxiu turned to look at Shen Yao.He thought to himself: Shen Yao, this little bastard, probably thinks of Yun Tang, the leader of the Demon Cult.

Shen Yao laughed and said, "Don't mention those beauties in the rivers and lakes. If we can't solve the plague, we will all die in Anjiang City. For the rest of our lives, we won't be able to step out of the city gate."

With his hands behind his back, he said lightly: "It's a pity, I haven't been to the famous Liangzhou. I heard that the rice noodles in Liangzhou are the first, the wine is the second, and the beauties in Qinhuai Tower are the third... "

Huang Banxia suddenly answered, "The fourth unique skill in Liangzhou is Sword Immortal."

Shen Yao turned his face and glanced at him: "Anjiang City is so close to Liangzhou, have you ever been there?"

Huang Banxia raised her head slightly, as if she was thinking: "When I was seven years old, I went to Liangzhou with my father. That day, the Duan family was selecting a group of young people who practiced martial arts...it was the Duan family who had been born a sword fairy! "

Shen Yao chuckled: "Who in the world doesn't know the Duan family in Liangzhou? Although I am a foreigner, I am not a villager."

Liangzhou is an important place for the imperial court. It has been prosperous and prosperous since ancient times, making people linger and forget to return.After dark, tourists often walk along the streets and alleys, and the street lights are as bright as stars.

When Shen Yao's master was young, he traveled in Liangzhou for a year, and wrote a poem in his own hand: "The spring wine is warm by the lakeside of Hualou, and the flowers are red on the banks of the fine grass and breeze."

Master seldom wrote poems.But he fell in love with the pavilions, towers and pavilions in Liangzhou, with smoked willows and painted bridges.

However, when mentioning Liangzhou in front of Jianghu knights, most of them would hear the name of "Liangzhou Duan Family".

It is said that more than 30 years ago, there was a young sword fairy in the Duan family, who was amazingly talented.He has no sword in his hand, but he has a sword in his heart. He is good at "Treading Xue Wuhen", which can kill people invisible.

Shen Yao put forward a new opinion: "Is there anyone who doesn't want to live, just go to the Duan's house to find the sword fairy! Die quickly, without pain, and without suffering."

Huang Banxia advised him: "Brother, you are a doctor, if you meet this kind of person, you have to persuade him to spare his life."

"I won't persuade," Shen Yao said lazily, "People who deserve to live can live, and people who deserve to die will die sooner or later."

He took out the dagger from his pocket, put it in his sleeve, looked at Huang Banxia again, and said something in his words: "For example, we were in your pharmacy that day... When we talked about the plague, how did you answer it? Do you remember?" ? You said, we gangsters from out of town go as far as we can to confuse people.”

He stopped and stood quietly in front of the pharmacy: "Tell me, if you believed us at that time, could there be fewer deaths in this city?"

Huang Banxia endured for a moment, then stepped up the steps: "Aren't you from the Chu family in the capital?"

The steps are slightly higher and the stone is polished smooth.Huang Banxia raised his other foot, and the sole of his shoe crushed the ground: "The Chu family in the capital is so famous, why don't you ask Mr. Chu, or ask Mr. Chu to come forward to do something?"

Xu Xingxiu, who was standing in front of him, replied: "You guessed it right, I really went to find Chu Kairong."

Xu Xingxiu was easy-going, safe and steady, just from his words and deeds, he was much more reliable than Shen Yao.Huang Banxia believed what Xu Xingxiu said, and asked eagerly, "Master Chu, what do you need?"

Xu Xingxiu smiled and said, "Young Master Chu doesn't see any visitors behind closed doors."

Shen Yao continued to correct and said: "To be honest, we are not from the Chu family. However, if something goes wrong with the whole Chu family, the three of us brothers...will have no face to go back to our hometown."

Several people said, they passed the side door of the pharmacy and walked into a hall.

The screen is embroidered with flowers, grass, fish and insects, and stands against the wall.Huang Banxia's father opened the screen, clasped his fists and saluted, "Doctor Wei."

Wei Lingfeng replied: "You're welcome, Doctor Huang."

Huang Banxia's father said modestly: "I am no longer a doctor in front of you, so why don't you just call me Lao Huang."

Lao Huang asked him to sit down: "Last night, I went to see the magistrate. I also presented the prescription you prescribed last time to the magistrate... What the lord means is, please come to uphold justice and eradicate the epidemic."

After saying a few words, Lao Huang rolled up his sleeves and covered his face with a cough.

In front of him was a purple clay pot, brewing the best Biluochun.He had just poured a cup of tea for Wei Lingfeng, when Shen Yao pushed aside the teacup and asked him, "Doctor Huang, I have a question, I don't know if I should say it or not."

With a smile in his eyes, Lao Huang said kindly, "Please tell me."

Shen Yao held his breath, and then said: "Since the magistrate appreciates my senior brother, why don't you meet with senior brother alone?"

After a while, Shen Yao smiled: "Naturally, Dr. Huang is dedicated to serving the people, I'm not doubting you."

Wei Lingfeng didn't care about Shen Yao's speculation.He said: "Doctor Huang, we are all foreigners, and it is inconvenient to do things in Anjiang City. If you trust me and my juniors, give me the key to the pharmacy, how about it?"

Old Huang hesitated.

Wei Lingfeng looked at Huang Banxia: "How long has your father been coughing?"

Huang Banxia was startled, Nuonuo said: "Three, three days."

Wei Lingfeng stretched out his left hand: "It's not too late."

Without waiting for his father to speak, Huang Banxia took out the key and put it in Wei Lingfeng's palm.

Wei Lingfeng stood up, his robes were clean and spotless, like fresh snow.He said: "Please inform the county magistrate that martial law is ordered throughout the city. Everyone, regardless of gender, age or age, must drink boiled water, eat cooked food, and avoid raw food..."

He bent down and said the most important words: "The corpses of the dead are not allowed to be buried or disposed of without authorization. They are all handed over to the government."

Lao Huang frowned tightly: "What do you mean?"

Wei Lingfeng took a step back and said honestly, "The dead body should be cremated."

The apex of Lao Huang's heart throbbed with pain: "After death, it is safe to bury yourself in the ground."

Wei Lingfeng raised his hand and caught his pulse: "After death, there is rebirth. Whether your body is intact or your bones are ashes..."

Wei Lingfeng gently put down Lao Huang's arm: "You have to go to Huangquan Road and Naihe Bridge."

Lao Huang's chest kept rising and falling, and the satin gown was covering his body, and the fabric was folded into traces one after another.

Wei Lingfeng didn't know what he thought of.In short, Lao Huang's complexion also became ugly.

Old Huang Mingming had to sit on a chair and lean half against the screen to be more comfortable.But after listening to Wei Lingfeng's warning, he walked around the hall a few times before saying, "I will write to the county magistrate."

"It's too late to write a letter," Wei Lingfeng urged, "It's best to go to the government now."

Lao Huang nodded and ordered his housekeeper to prepare the horse.

The housekeeper helped him steady: "Master..."

Lao Huang waved his hand: "No problem, you go prepare the horse. The county magistrate only trusts me. My sons are not in the same generation as the talking."

After Lao Huang left, Wei Lingfeng dragged the two juniors to pick medicinal materials from the warehouse.

The three of them cooperated tacitly and worked swiftly, especially the way of handling medicinal materials was something that Huang Pinxia had never seen or heard in this life.

Shen Yao also recorded all the medicinal materials, quantities, and formulas used, and left them to Huang Banxia: "Even if you are the county magistrate, you can't use your things for nothing. After this plague is over, you take this piece of paper and copy it. The people who hand it over to the government... At least they can get a few taels of silver from the court."

Huang Banxia even claimed to be.

He squatted aside to help.After a while, he asked, "Brother, do you still blame me for what I said that day?"

"Stop beating me up," Shen Yao said impatiently, holding a bundle of forsythia and flavescens, "What time is it now? Human life is at stake, and you can't protect yourself."

Shen Yao was right.

All over the city, everyone was thinking: the plague broke out, and they couldn't protect themselves.

The Huajie Liuxiang, which was once crowded with people, also became deserted in just a few days.

☆, clear the case ([-])

Shen Yao seemed to be gnawing on pastries leisurely, with a calm expression on the surface, but restlessness in his heart.Shen Yao did not expect that Wei Lingfeng went to the street to buy medicine last night, but was discovered by Captain Zhao's subordinates.

This matter really cannot be studied in detail.

If Duan Yongxuan found out that Wei Lingfeng bought the medicine for Yuntang, and Shen Yao also treated Cheng Xueluo and Tantaiche, then... not only Shen Yao and Wei Lingfeng, but the entire alchemy school would become public enemies of the martial arts .

These consequences made Shen Yao wake up immediately, felt a chill suddenly, and secretly sighed: Fortunately, Duan Yongxuan has spoken.For Duan Yongxuan's sake, Captain Zhao shouldn't embarrass Wei Lingfeng.

However, Captain Zhao turned around and said righteously: "Uncle Duan doesn't know what you are doing. Doctor Wei, you come from a respectable and upright family, you have made great achievements in sweeping up the plague, and you have a strong martial arts family. You should have a bright future .”

Wei Lingfeng said softly: "I don't understand what you mean."

Zhao Duwei pressed step by step, aggressively: "Wei Lingfeng, where are you after Choushi last night?"

Shen Yao also stood up, facing Captain Zhao: "He is with me."

Captain Zhao asked with a smile, "Are there other people around?"

Shen Yao lied calmly as usual: "My other brother."

Zhao Duwei clasped his hands and made a full gesture: "Can I invite him out to meet?"

Shen Yao didn't answer for a moment, Zhao Duwei raised his voice and said: "Guilty? Don't dare? You know what a big mistake I made! Once this matter spreads to the Jianghu, you will have no place to stand."

Wei Lingfeng took a sip of his tea, without any embarrassment: "Your Excellency has no evidence, how can you jump to conclusions? It's better to show personal and physical evidence, and carefully consider it, so as to straighten out the cause and effect."

He sat upright, and his voice was very modest and gentle. Not only was he not provoked by Captain Zhao, but he was able to ask him for evidence. He had the magnanimous demeanor of a son of an aristocratic family.

Zhao Duwei praised and criticized secretly: "Doctor Wei is very courageous."

Wei Lingfeng also praised him: "Captain Zhao is upright."

Captain Zhao suddenly smiled: "Young Master Chu is visiting the yamen, will Dr. Wei come with me to see him?"

Wei Lingfeng said, "We were talking about physical evidence just now, and now we're talking about Chu Kairong, what exactly is Captain Zhao trying to say?"

Duan Yongxuan left the main seat and walked slowly.Standing between Shen Yao and Captain Zhao, he said kindly and kindly: "You two nephews, I and your master are old friends. The troubles of my family can be solved at home, and there is no need to make trouble in front of the government."

After finishing speaking, he patted Captain Zhao on the shoulder.

Shen Yao watched this scene from the sidelines, and thought: Duan Yongxuan once captured a group of demon cult masters, abolished their internal power, locked them in a dungeon, and tortured them every day, whips, honey, and bone-piercing locks.It stands to reason that he should be a big man who is not afraid of getting into trouble... Why is he unwilling to let the government intervene in the investigation?

It's just a question.Apart from this, Shen Yao wanted to know how much information Zhao Duwei had inquired.

Captain Zhao closed his eyes, and after a little while, he suddenly said, "I'll let my subordinates show up. Dr. Shen, you also invite your brother. Let's testify face to face, okay?"

Shen Yao was very flustered, and looking at Wei Lingfeng's expression, there seemed to be something different.Shen Yao's eyes lit up slightly, and he replied, "Yes. But, I won't ask for it, so as not to make Captain Zhao suspect that we are colluding."

Duan Yongxuan clasped his fingers on the table and sent out two attendants.Several people waited for a while, Xu Xingxiu and Huang Banxia both came late with medicine boxes.Xu Xingxiu's forehead was sweating, his face was reddish, and it was obvious that he was running in a hurry.

Captain Zhao called to him: "Doctor Xu."

Xu Xingxiu was stunned, "Who is this?"

Captain Zhao staggered towards him: "I am Zhao Ronghao. There is one thing I would like to ask Dr. Xu to comment on. After your senior brother and senior brother went out last night..."

Xu Xingxiu interrupted him: "My brother and I didn't go out last night. We had breakfast together before dawn today."

Zhao Duwei half-closed his eyes: "Little brother, do you have something to say?"

He was asking Huang Banxia.

Huang Banxia's clothes were loose and she yawned.He rubbed his eyes, as if he hadn't woken up from his nap.

Captain Zhao was a little impatient.He carried a short sword with him, and the scabbard was engraved with complicated official inscriptions. Now he was holding the short sword in his hand, and flicked his thumb forward, revealing the awe-inspiring sword light.

He asked: "Are you called Huang Banxia? You are from Anjiang City, your father is a doctor of Huang Xian, and there are three elder brothers in your family. Do you know what will happen to ordinary people if they are infected with the Demon Cult!"

Huang Banxia retreated half a step, and Shen Yao stood in front of him: "Captain Zhao, this younger brother has just turned [-], and he is still a young man, so he can't stand being frightened. You yelled at him while drawing your sword out of its sheath, it's unavoidable. lose identity."

Captain Zhao was about to argue, when Shen Yao cut him off again: "Besides, I was really surprised when you mentioned the Devil's Cult just now. Even if there was a man last night who looked like my elder brother, standing outside the Qinhuai Building , why, is he a member of the heinous Demon Cult? Captain Zhao usually decides cases like this?"

Wei Lingfeng and Shen Yao sang together: "Lieutenant Zhao cares about the common people, so he can't rush forward."

Xu Xingxiu put down the medicine box, and said in response: "My lord, what suspicion and misunderstanding is there, just solve it. Our alchemy school lives in seclusion all the year round, and never asks what is right and wrong in the world. How can it be involved in the demon sect? Your lord is wise and powerful, and you will definitely not wrong anyone."

The three cooperated tacitly, forcing Captain Zhao to speak: "Wei Lingfeng, did you save a woman last night?"

Before Wei Lingfeng could answer, Captain Zhao pointed to the door: "Last night, you stood at the corner of Qinhuai Building and rescued a woman. The woman was being hunted down at that time, and both chasers were killed by your sword." Next. The sword marks on the body of the deceased were all fatal in one blow, as thin as silver threads, and the neck bones were shattered! This is the martial art of the Demon Cult, called Soul Breaking Slash!"

He spoke very quickly, after he finished speaking, a gray-clothed attendant said: "The villain was patrolling the streets last night, and happened to see Dr. Wei."

Shen Yao scolded angrily: "You talk nonsense! My brother doesn't know martial arts at all!"

After Shen Yao got angry, he took out his usual tricky way to deal with his master: "I'm sorry, everyone is laughing. You may not know that as a disciple of the alchemy school, there are two thousand volumes of introductory scriptures, and each volume must be memorized backwards. Human body We have to be able to draw the meridians, organs and bones with our eyes closed, and with daily medical visits, where is the time to learn martial arts?"

Duan Yongxuan explained: "Yes, nephew Wei Xian has no internal strength. A swordsman whose internal strength is not deep enough can't control the Soul Breaking Slash. This kind of killing style is fierce and fierce, and one move can kill people. There is no medicine for the injured. Zhi, he still has consciousness after death, he can feel severe pain, but he can’t make a sound because his throat is broken... In Jianghu, there are also people who call 'Duanhun Zhan' a 'carp knife', killing people is like slaughtering fish."

Before he finished speaking, everyone around did not change their expressions, only Huang Banxia retreated a few feet, trembling tremblingly.

Captain Zhao noticed him now, and asked again: "What do you want to say, Huang Banxia?"

Shen Yao was restless and glanced at him quietly.

Wei Lingfeng thought of Huang Banxia being scared by the Demon Cult and peeing his pants.Wei Lingfeng knew that this child had little guts, was impatient, and couldn't hold his breath when things went wrong.If Zhao Duwei is not settled today, the variable will be Huang Banxia.

Captain Zhao grabbed Huang Banxia's sleeve: "Don't be afraid, tell me everything you know."

He asked: "Last night, were Shen Yao and Wei Lingfeng at Duan's house?"

Huang Banxia blushed, and after a while he choked out a sentence: "Yes... yes!"

Captain Zhao stared at him: "How dare you lie?"

Everything is quiet, Zhao Duwei concentrates
