The man didn't say he believed it, nor did he say he didn't believe it, he just smiled, and then asked something else, "I don't know if you have seen my guard, or someone else? I was hunted down, and I got lost with the guard."

Anxi shook his head, "I only see you nearby. If you are in a hurry, I can look for it for you while I am collecting medicine. What does your guard look like?"

"Then trouble you, they..." He described the appearance of the guards to Anxi, and those who chased and killed him also mentioned it. After that, the man drank the medicine and fell into a drowsy sleep.

After he fell asleep, Anxi finished disposing of the medicine in his hand, went out to find new ingredients, and checked to see if there were any other people.

The hills here may be the reason for the lack of people, and the medicinal materials are very rich, Anxi does not need to go far to find a lot.

So after searching for three days, there are many medicinal materials, but no one was found.The man was a little disappointed after hearing this, but he didn't dare to ask Anxi to look for it far away. After all, with Anxi around, he would be safer.

Otherwise, if Anxi went far away and the enemy came, with his seriously injured body, he would not even be able to find a place to hide.

After the initial dangerous period, the man's spirit improved a lot, and he had time to chat with Anxi during the day, "Have you always lived in this mountain? Have you ever gone out?"

Anxi shook his head, "When I was young, I lived with my master. After the master passed away, I was alone. I would occasionally go to the village at the foot of the mountain to exchange some supplies with people, and it would be gone any further."

"Why don't you go out? Life outside is always more convenient than in the mountains." The man smiled.

"It's okay, I'm used to it, and I don't find it inconvenient." Anxi looked indifferent.

The man was dumbfounded. He couldn't tell whether Anxi's words were right or wrong. He changed the subject and said, "I don't know your name yet?"

"My name is Anxi, what's your name?"

"My name is Zhao Tan, and I am the seventh in the family. You can call me Zhao Qi."

"Zhao Qi, why did you suffer such serious injuries? Did you encounter bandits? But I have lived here for so many years, and I have never seen any bandits."

Anxi wanted to inquire about some outside news from Zhao Tan, but he didn't want to ask blatantly, for fear of arousing the man's suspicion.

This person had an extraordinary background at first glance, and he was cautious and suspicious. Anxi didn't want to cause trouble for himself, so he could only inquire around the corner.

"My injury was not caused by the bandits." Zhao Tan's eyes darkened, his face was very serious, obviously he was in a persistent mood.

Anxi pursed her mouth and stopped asking questions, fearing that he would continue to be angry.

On the contrary, Zhao Tan, who may have been holding back for a long time, couldn't help but say more when facing Anxi, the stranger who had saved him.

"I am the seventh in my family. There are four older brothers on top and two younger brothers on the bottom. My family is also counted..."

"Why is there only four brothers in the seventh place? Isn't it six?" Anxi asked strangely.

"The other two died in infancy."

"Oh, don't you have any daughters in your family? They are all sons, which is amazing."

Zhao Tan held back, but couldn't hold back, "Do you still want to listen?"

"Okay, okay, you talk, you talk, I don't want to interrupt." Anxi quickly comforted him, wanting him to talk more.

Zhao Tan snorted coldly, "I have three sisters, but they have different ranks, and they don't have the same order as brothers. Moreover, daughters are all going to marry off, so there is no need to earn anything with us."

After explaining, he continued, "My family is considered to have a small fortune, and the aunt in the family did not give birth to a aunt, so my four brothers are all eyeing the position of head of the family. These years, they have been fighting openly and secretly. Fortunately, before I I'm not an adult, so I didn't get involved. Who knows, as soon as I became an adult, my father only sent me some tasks, and they targeted me."

"I never thought about earning family property with my brothers, and kept giving back, always giving in. But this time they really went too far. They actually found someone to kill me while I was going to the south of the Yangtze River to inspect the industry. How can I do this? Can you bear it? If I can bear it any longer, I will lose my life. I am lucky to have met you this time, otherwise I would die in this cave."

Speaking of this, anger and hatred flashed in the man's eyes, his eyes were like ice skates, as if as long as those brothers were in front of him, he would cut them into pieces and let them taste the pain he had suffered.

Anxi silently went through his words in his mind, a trace of speculation emerged in his mind.

This man's clothes are not obvious, and he doesn't look very luxurious, but Anxi, who has lived for several lifetimes, how can he not see it, it must be a good material that is hard to buy.

In order to earn family property, rich and noble families have a lot of fights between brothers, but not many are so ruthless, sending killers is not counted, but poisoning.

Before the man woke up, Anxi had already carefully studied the arrowhead. The materials used in the workmanship were definitely not as good as modern ones, but in ancient times, they were definitely considered high-quality goods.

Coupled with the complex and delicate poison, it is really beyond the reach of ordinary people.

Anxi had a bad association in his heart, this man named Zhao Tan, could he be a prince?

If it's true, it's in trouble.It is undoubtedly a very troublesome matter for an unknown person like him to get involved in seizing the heir.

Moreover, the most important thing is that he looks so much like Zhao Tan!

Anxi lowered his eyelids to cover his thoughts, "Then what are you going to do now? Your guards are nowhere to be seen, and I don't know if those who want to kill you are nearby."

Yes, this is the most important thing.

Anxi has only been practicing martial arts for a month, if he really encounters those killers, he may not be able to handle them.

This Zhao Tan is different from the old man Lin Zi'an that Anxi met before, it is impossible for Anxi to take him home rashly to avoid disaster.

Lin Zian was already terminally ill at that time, and he himself was carefree. He would be curious and surprised by Anxi, who had a strange background, but he would not covet him.

And the old man is even more so, he is already so old, and he lives alone in the mountains and forests, completely cut off from the outside world.

Anxi brought them home to ensure that they would not have bad thoughts.

But this Zhao Tan is different, not only is he young, but he may also be an ambitious prince.

Such a person, even with Anxi's courage, did not dare to reveal his secret.

Hearing An Xi's words, Zhao Tan also showed a thoughtful expression, "Yes, please pay more attention to Mr. An when he is collecting medicine."

Anxi nodded in agreement, but secretly made up his mind in his heart to gather more medicine later and make some poisons and drugs for self-defense.

After a few more days, Zhao Tan's wounds began to heal, and the toxins in his body were cleaned up, and he would no longer be drowsy like before.

Anxi had more time to go out and didn't have to stay by his side, so he walked farther.

On this day, Anxi climbed into the col of another mountain and found a thin old man in gray clothes.

According to observations, this old man has some superficial absorbing skills, as well as extremely dexterous skills.It can be seen that he has suffered a lot of injuries, but climbing up and down does not hinder him at all.

Fortunately, Anxi's inner strength and mentality are superb, even if the study time is still short, it is not easy for the old man to discover.

After following him for a long time, I found that he had been looking for someone, so I didn't know whether it was Zhao Tan's bodyguard or a sent killer.

To be on the safe side, Anxi quietly left, returned to the cave where Zhao Tan was, and told him what the old man saw.

Zhao Tan was extremely excited, "That's my servant, who took care of me since I was a child, and is someone I trust very much, please bring him here."

Anxi nodded, "Tomorrow, it's getting late now, and the road in the mountain is not easy to walk. He is on another mountain, and the road is far away. I will go there and inform him tomorrow."

Zhao Tan didn't say much, but thanked with a smile, "Thank you, Brother An."

"Should be."

That night, after the two had dinner, Zhao Tan rested.Anxi, on the other hand, was busy preparing the powder.

Early the next morning, after breakfast, Anxi, urged by Zhao Tan's eyes, went to find the old man named Wang Qian.

When Anxi left yesterday, the sun was already in the west, and Wang Qian didn't dare to wander in the mountains at night, so when Anxi came, he was still in his original position.

Anxi stepped forward, explained clearly his purpose, and gave Wang Qian a jade pendant that Zhao Tan had given him.

When Wang Qian first saw Anxi, he almost yelled 'Prince', but he stopped in time, and after observing, he also saw that this was not his lord.

Hearing Anxi's intention and seeing the jade pendant again, Wang Qian hurriedly asked excitedly, "My lord, how is my master? Is there any injury?"

"Yes, the injury is not serious, but it's getting better now, so you don't have to worry." Then, Anxi repeated the process of meeting Zhao Tan.

After Wang Qian listened, he bowed again and again, thanking Anxi again and again.

Anxi smiled, but didn't take it to heart.

Because the distance was relatively long, the two chatted about other things. Wang Qian kept asking about Anxi's life experience. Anxi thought that he was curious about why he looked like Zhao Tan, so he repeated the previous remarks. .

After Wang Qian listened, he stared at Anxi's back, his eyes flickered, but Anxi, who was leading the way, didn't notice it.

The two went all the way to the cave, and when they reached the entrance of the cave, they saw Zhao Tan coming out to breathe.

Wang Qian burst into tears with excitement, "Master, are you okay? How is your injury? Is it important? It's all my fault for not protecting you and causing you to suffer such a serious injury."

"I'm fine, you don't have to worry, the injury has begun to heal, and it will be fine after a while." Zhao Tan smiled.

"That's good, that's good." Wang Qian heaved a sigh of relief, and a smile appeared on his face.

"Thank you Mr. An, if it wasn't for him, I would be dead now." Zhao Tan patted his hand and asked him to look at Anxi.

Wang Qian wiped away his tears with the corner of his clothes, walked up to Anxi, knelt down immediately without saying a word, "Thank you Mr. An for your kindness, the villain kowtows to you, thank you for saving your life."

As he spoke, he knocked to the ground with a 'boom'.

Anxi was taken aback, and quickly stepped forward to support him.Then, his eyes suddenly went dark, and his whole body went limp.
