Herb Family [Rebirth]

After Lu Qi and his party settled down, they began to quietly inquire about Mr. Bai's whereabouts.

After a few days, the people under his command came to report that someone really had seen old man Bai. Not only that, that person also entertained old man Bai for a while until he left their house.

And the whereabouts of the old man also made Lu Qi's heart sink.

According to that person, the old man clearly went to Wolong Mountain.

Now Lu Qi and others had to go into the mountain.

But before entering the mountain, you have to make sufficient preparations, so Lu Qi sent all his subordinates out to make preparations, and he himself wrote to tell Bai Heng everything about Meizhen. ...

capital city

When Bai Heng received Lu Qi's letter, Lu Qi had already brought people into the mountain.

Bai Heng had also heard about the dangers of Wolong Mountain, so after hearing the news, he was extremely anxious.

Fortunately, under his treatment, the prince's health has improved greatly, so after careful consideration, Bai Heng proposed to the prince to leave the palace.

"You said you were leaving the palace to go to Wolong Mountain?" Xiao Qi asked after hearing Bai Heng's report.

"Reply to His Highness, yes." Bai Heng stood in front of Xiao Qi and replied respectfully.

Xiao Qi frowned and didn't speak immediately, after pondering for a while, he said: "It's not impossible, Gu's body is already well, if Little Doctor Bai wants to leave, Gu will make arrangements."

Having obtained Xiao Qi's approval letter, Bai Heng was very happy.

After Bai Heng withdrew, Xiao Qi ordered someone to report to the emperor.

After the emperor heard about it, he wanted to keep Bai Heng, but after the crown prince went to the imperial study to discuss with the emperor in detail, the emperor issued a decree, ordering someone to protect Bai Heng and go to Wolong Mountain.

After receiving the order, Bai Heng breathed a sigh of relief.

He was really afraid that His Majesty would not allow it, so he insisted on keeping him in the palace. Fortunately, he first asked the Crown Prince's consent. ...

Just like that, Bai Heng quietly left the palace under the protection of the guards.

Wolong Mountain

It has been three days since Lu Qi brought his men into the mountain. Wolong Mountain is as dangerous as rumored. The deeper they go into the forest, the more beasts they encounter.

Fortunately, Lu Qi led enough people, each with good skills, and there was a local hunter as a guide, so they went all the way to the deep mountains without any danger.

"Master, it's almost noon, it's time to rest." Lu Qi's personal servant came over and reported in a low voice.

Lu Qi looked up at the sky, there was a dense leaf above his head, and some of them could not see the sky, but according to the walking speed of everyone, it should be noon.

"Well, let's rest where we are." Lu Qi looked around, ready to rest where he was.

After hearing this, everyone put down the bags on their backs and began to clean up the surrounding environment. Some went to collect firewood to make a fire, some went to find water to replenish their water bags, and some prepared to eat later.

Lu Qi's servant handed over a water bag, "Master, drink some water."

Lu Qi was also very thirsty along the way, so he took a few mouthfuls of the water bag and gulped it down. At this time, the people who went to pick up firewood came back, and everyone lit a fire to prepare for dinner.

At this moment, the grass not far from them suddenly made a rustling sound.

Lu Qi and the others immediately stopped their work and stared at the grass with strict vigilance.Several bodyguards with the best skills have even raised their weapons and guarded in front of everyone.

The rustling sounds kept coming, the grass was swaying more and more loudly, everyone became more and more nervous, and even Lu Qi stared at the front with breathless concentration.

Sudden--

"Shhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh)."

Lu Qi watched intently, and couldn't help but laugh. It turned out to be a hare. When everyone saw it was a hare, they couldn't laugh or cry, but it would be nice to have an extra meal at noon.

One of the guards stepped forward, lifted the hare's ears, and was about to walk back, but suddenly realized that something was wrong. The arrows on the hare's body were very strange, and they were not used by their group.

Thinking of this, his heart skipped a beat, and before he could sound a warning, suddenly many people jumped out from around the forest, surrounding them and his group.

Lu Qi and the others did not expect such a shocking change. They were surrounded by people in an instant. The people surrounding them all had fierce expressions on their faces. Those with swords, and those with bows and arrows.

Seeing all kinds of weapons pointed at them, Lu Qi and his party felt heavy in their hearts.

The bodyguard carrying the hare just now calmed down and said, "Everyone, we went into the mountain just to find someone, and we will leave as soon as we find someone. Please raise your hands high."

Among the group of people surrounding them, one of the tallest and muscular men said in a rough voice: "Stop talking nonsense, after entering Wolong Mountain, it's up to you if you want to go back!"

After finishing speaking, the people around them rushed up, Lu Qi and others were defeated, and were quickly taken away by Wuhuada.

Lu Qi and the others were tied up and walked into the deep mountains, following the men's twists and turns. Not long after walking, a village hidden in the mountains appeared in front of them.

Seeing this, Lu Qi's eyes flickered slightly. It seems that the reason why there are rumors outside that those who entered Wolong Mountain and never returned is not because those people were eaten by wild beasts, but because they were tied into the stockade?

Just after thinking about it, Lu Qi and his party were pushed into the stockade.

After entering the stockade, I realized that despite the inconspicuous outside, the stockade has a different world, not to mention the vast land, but the scattered houses in front of me. At first glance, I thought I had entered some small village.

What's more, there are fields in the stockade, and the crops in the fields are clearly well-growthed and growing well, even better than the crops in the fields around Meizhen.

Lu Qi silently remembered what he saw along the way, and at the same time guessed in his heart that Mr. Bai was probably taken back to the village, so there was no news of him.

Just as he finished thinking, an old man appeared in front of him, wearing ordinary clothes and a bamboo hat, walking towards him leisurely with his hands behind his back.

Lu Qi was taken aback for a moment, isn't this the old man Bai?

"Master Bai—" Lu Qi hurriedly called out.

"Shut up! What are you yelling about?!" Unexpectedly, the moment he opened his mouth, the big man next to him gave him a hard push.

But old man Bai had already heard the shout, turned his head to take a look, alas, isn't this the kid from the Lu family?

Looking at it again, this kid from the Lu family is actually not sitting in a wheelchair, but walking on two feet. This can be seen as a surprise to Mr. Bai. He knows that his son and grandson are on good terms with the kid from the Lu family, and he also knows that Bai Heng He was treating the Lu family boy's feet.

But he didn't expect it to be cured.

Now the old man was very excited, he came to Lu Qi in a few steps, and said: "I want this kid, send him to me."

The big man next to him heard this, and said respectfully: "Yes, old sir, I will send it right away."

Seeing how respectful the big guys were to Mr. Bai, Lu Qi had some guesses in his heart, but it was hard to say much right now, and Mr. Bai was secretly winking at the side, so Lu Qi was just pushed away in silence.

The big men took Lu Qi to a small wooden house. There were a lot of herbs in the front and back of the wooden house. It seemed that it was the place where Mr. Bai lived. The big guys left him in the house, locked the door and left.

Lu Qi's hands were still tied, so he could only go to a chair beside him and sit down, quietly waiting for Mr. Bai to come back.

Not long after, there was movement outside the door, the door opened, and old man Bai walked in.

After the old man came in, he came over to untie Lu Qi, and asked in a low voice, "Little Lu family, why did you run into Wolong Mountain?"

"Old man, Bai Heng is worried about you, this junior is here to look for you." Lu Qi said.

Old Man Bai was stunned for a moment, then sighed and said, "It's the old man who dragged you down."

"Don't say that, old man. What happened? Where is this place?"

"It's a long story—"

…………

After hearing what old man Bai said, Lu Qi finally knew why the old man fell to this point.

It turns out that the old man who loves medicine has become obsessed, and when he heard that there was a precious herbal medicine in Wolong Mountain, he didn't listen to others' persuasion, and went into the mountain with a few attendants.

Unexpectedly, as soon as he entered the mountain, he was taken down.

It turned out that there was a shortage of doctors in Wolong Village, so the people in the village managed to get the news out, and tricked many doctors into the mountain with an unfounded fake herbal medicine.

Old man Bai was not the first doctor they deceived, nor was he the only one. Many doctors were taken back to the cottage before and after the old man, but they were not treated as well as the old man.

It turned out that the village was not only short of doctors, but also because the owner of the village was sick and needed doctor's treatment urgently, so the people in the village took the risk and kidnapped many doctors back.

Except for Mr. Bai, the rest of the doctors are helpless against the village owner's illness.

Old man Bai cured the village owner and won the respect of everyone in the village, but he couldn't leave the village anymore.

"Firstly, they are short of a doctor, and secondly, they are worried that the old man will report to the government after he goes out, so the old man can only stay." Old man Bai sighed.

Lu Qi didn't have a good idea for a while.

Just like what the old man said, this village happens to be short of a doctor, and the old man has excellent medical skills, so the people in the village naturally hope that the old man will stay; besides, they certainly dare not let the old man leave, after all they have tied up so many people, if the old man What should I do if I report to the official?

"What about the other doctors?" Lu Qi asked.

"...The old man doesn't know either." Old man Bai was silent for a moment, then said calmly.

Lu Qi's heart jumped, and he vaguely guessed the fate of those doctors.

"What will happen to the person who was brought in with me?" Lu Qi asked again.

"Don't worry, there is a shortage of people in the village now, and those people will be sent to work." The old man said.

After hearing this, Lu Qi breathed a sigh of relief.

As Mr. Bai said, except for Lu Qi who was taken away by Mr. Bai, the rest of Lu Qi's group were taken to work. It was also at this time that these people knew that the people in the village were actually making steel and iron.

And what everyone forged was not other things, but armor and weapons.

Seeing this, Lu Qi's bodyguards jumped in their hearts.

They have entered the dragon's pond and tiger's den. ...
