=====================

The farther west you go, the more desolate the land gradually reveals. It is rare to see a dense vegetation forest in half a day. In some places, the exposed land has even been deserted.So when approaching the location of Baicao Hall on the map, the lush and dense greenery is particularly conspicuous. Under the fierce sun, people can't help but feel refreshed, and feel that the surrounding air seems to be much cooler. .

It was already another afternoon, and it was the time when the sun was at its most venomous.Ye Mu found the nearest small village on the map, and let Jialuo land near there.

To go to Baicao Hall, Ye Ming must be settled first so that he can rest well.Then he went by himself, and it was more convenient for him to act.

The customs and customs of Xiliang are quite different from those of the Central Plains.There are no pavilions in the town, and the densely packed houses are mostly made of mud, and most of the structures from the roof to the windows and even the doors are arched.People with wheat-colored skin and cool clothes are walking on the street, there are sexy and hot dancers with golden rings on their arms and tulle, there are passers-by in cloaks who are mysterious and unrecognizable, and some people from afar Traders and passing caravans.Although the town is not big, it is very lively, and there is no trace of panic in the Central Plains.

After settling down in a hostel, leaving Ye Ming behind, Ye Mu went out alone.He planned to buy a few black cloaks of the kind that passers-by here often wear, just in case.After asking passers-by and shopkeepers all the way, he turned into a rather dense group of houses.

The sun fell on the eaves, casting shadows in the not-so-wide aisle.It is much quieter here than the street outside, and there are no people to be seen.Ye Mu walked unhurriedly all the way, and disappeared after turning a corner.

After a while, there was a rush of chaotic footsteps from the direction he came. A plump, slightly fat, middle-aged woman in old clothes hurriedly appeared at the corner, frowning and stretching her neck to look around, her face full of anxiety. flustered.

The black figure fell silently behind her, and the Senhan long knife with its sheath, which was not warm even after basking in the sun for a long time, was placed on the woman's neck.Ye Mu asked: "You have followed me for such a long distance, what are you going to do?"

Suddenly hearing an emotionless voice behind her, the middle-aged woman trembled violently in fright, but she didn't scream out of her voice, but turned around hastily and plopped down on her knees, suddenly letting out a loud cry of grief.

"Young man! Please do me one thing, I will be grateful to you even if I am a cow! Please!"

Regardless of the long knife on her neck, she hurriedly took off the silver bracelet on her wrist, hairpin, earrings and other things, gathered a small handful in front of her, and pointed at Ye Mu. Pushed.Immediately, he knocked his head heavily, bang bang bang bang, bloodstains were seen on his forehead after a while, and he just kept saying "Please!"

Tears streamed down his face, his face was stained with blood.In the red and swollen eyes, there was a monstrous hatred.The sound of each word is like a cuckoo crying blood.

Ye Mu withdrew his long knife, stepped sideways to avoid the inexplicable gift, and quickly scanned the middle-aged woman, but didn't notice anything unusual.Then he said, "Get up first, and talk about it if you have something to do."

The woman hurriedly got up and put away the bunch of jewelry, it seemed that she wanted to stuff it into Ye Mu's hands but she didn't dare to do it again.He raised his sleeve and wiped his bloody and tearful face, and immediately his face looked bloody and terrifying.She tried her best to make a smile that was uglier than crying, and said: "Young man, can you come to my house and talk, it's near here, very close! Really!"

Ye Mu looked at her and said calmly: "I don't have that much energy. Just tell me, what do you want me to do for you?" As he spoke, he jumped and landed on the eaves on one side.

The middle-aged woman took two steps forward in a hurry, and blurted out: "Please help me kill someone!"

This unexpected answer stopped Ye Mu from leaving. He stared at the middle-aged woman for a moment to confirm that she was serious and urgent, and asked, "Why did you find me? The person you want to kill, Who is it again?"

"Only people from the Six Great Sects dare to carry weapons here. With your outfit, I know you belong to the Palace of Seven Killers. Everyone says that the Palace of Seven Killers is very capable, and there is no one who can't be killed." The woman said, There was longing and hatred in her eyes, "Please! Kill that bastard that Baicaotang poisoned!" She burst into tears, "He killed my child!"

Baicaotang?

Ye Mu turned over and fell back in front of her, and asked briefly: "The specific situation?"

The woman cried, and Xu Xu started talking.

When it was getting dark, Ye Mu returned to the hostel where he stayed.

That woman's child had suffered from an unknown serious illness a few days ago, and the medicine was useless.She went to the doctor in a hurry and went to the poison disciple of Baicaotang by mistake, who coaxed her child to try the medicine.Seeing that the child was not well, she hurriedly carried her to find another medicine student, only then did she know that the child had been poisoned.The child who was only a few years old cried in pain in front of her for a long time before he died.

From the woman's narration, it can be seen that she wished to eat the flesh and sleep on the skin of the poison disciple who killed her child, but she still respected and respected the medicine disciple who was also in Baicaotang.And in the process of narrating the incident, when she expressed her hatred for that poison student, she repeatedly used words such as "sure enough" and "everyone said"—the poison department of Baicaotang seems to be not affected by it in Xiliang. welcome.

Tomorrow, I need to verify whether this is the real general perception of this place, or is it just the imagination of the other party who was a little confused because of the tragic change.

He glanced at the map, and his eyes fell on the sign of Baicaotang.

He did not agree to the woman's request for assassination.

He doesn't have a strong sense of justice and a chivalrous heart. If he really wants to kill someone, it must be for his own reasons. The grief and stories of others have nothing to do with him.Especially in the situation where he is still asking for help from Baicaotang, there is no intention to cause extra problems.

However, if there is no result in the inquiry with the medicine school tomorrow, the disciple of the poison school mentioned by the other party may be worth looking into.

Thinking in this way, after he fell asleep, he got up, put on Ye Ming's Qudu pills and hangover pills, and drove his horse directly to Baicaotang.

Built against the mountain, the broad villa with a corner of green tiles faintly exposed in the shade of lush forests is the location of Baicaotang, which studies medical science and is proficient in poison techniques.

At the entrance of the villa, in the open space surrounded by lush forests, it was extremely "lively".

Originally, there would be disciples from the Department of Medicine taking turns to be on duty every day, treating patients who came here for free, and the flow of people was endless all day long.However, there was no one in front of the long table on duty today, but at the entrance to the side, a group of people surrounded the three floors inside and three floors outside, and forcibly blocked the originally quite spacious entrance.

Ye Mu heard a rather familiar cry from a long distance away.

"My child, you died a terrible death! Poisoned beast, you will die a terrible death!"

Taking advantage of the turmoil, Ye Mu dodged to avoid the crowded places, turned around and turned to the gate of the villa, hiding in a very inconspicuous shadow.From this angle, the situation surrounded by the crowd is clear at a glance.

The middle-aged woman I saw yesterday was sitting in the middle with disheveled hair, hugging a small quilt and crying loudly.She looked like she hadn't washed up overnight, and the dried blood and tear stains on her face were washed away by tears, leaving red marks, which looked shocking.The crowd of onlookers formed a semicircle at a distance of four or five meters from her, pointing and whispering, and looked in the direction of Baicaotang with their obscure eyes.

The costumes of Baicaotang's disciples are mostly white, the auxiliary color of the medicinal costumes is green, and the secondary color of poisonous costumes is blue, which is used as a distinction.A few young men and women with light green borders on their cuffs stood aside, they didn't seem to be too flustered by the situation in front of them, they seemed to stay out of it.And the attention of the onlookers was not on them, and their unfriendly eyes were mostly on the two poison disciples with blue sleeves who were in charge of guarding at the entrance.The two young disciples stood there a little at a loss, their gaze drifting into the open door from time to time, consciously avoiding the direction of the crowd.

At this time, a few young men and women walked out quickly from the door, looking at the costumes, both medicine and poison.There was a commotion among the crowd, and they automatically moved out of the way.

The leading disciple of the medicine department came out more and more, approached the middle-aged woman, and said softly, "Madam, don't worry, Baicaotang is investigating this matter thoroughly, and will not tolerate it, and will definitely give you an explanation."

He handed out a snow-white brocade handkerchief and asked, "Madam, can I treat your wound first?"

The middle-aged woman's crying gradually subsided, and she stopped swearing over and over again.She looked up at the medicine student, nodded with sobs as if she had found a backbone, let go of the quilt she was holding tightly, took the brocade handkerchief and pressed it on her face, covering her face and sobbing.But the medicine student didn't dislike her dirty body, and after getting permission, he gently pushed aside the tangled hair to reveal the wound, after some treatment, he thinly applied a light green ointment.The movements are smooth and flowing, and there is only concern in the expression, without the slightest reluctance.

While he was treating the wound, several other medicine disciples who came with him also began to persuade the crowd to disperse, and formed a long line at the side for diagnosis and treatment again.It's just that some eyes from those teams still cast their eyes over from time to time, seemingly paying attention to the movement here.

The few disciples of the poison department who came together stood on the sidelines from the beginning to the end, standing outside the gate of the villa, watching these people's busyness.They communicated with each other in low voices, without much expression on their faces.

After a while, two people came out of the door one after the other.The person in front of him looks ordinary, but his skin is not as fair as other Baicaotang disciples, but similar to the local people, with a light wheat color that is only found when he often moves under the scorching sun.Wearing a white and blue-striped Baicaotang costume on him, his skin looks even darker.After walking out the door, he stood still, frowned slightly and raised his eyes to look over.The person following behind him was a girl from the Department of Medicine, her baby face was full of nervousness at the moment, her eyes were scanning back and forth, observing the situation outside the door.

The moment the middle-aged woman who had been docile looked over, as if she had been stabbed by something, she swung away the bullet of the medicine disciple beside her and jumped up, like a mad tiger, pounced on the wheat-skinned man. The Poison Department disciple let out a piercing howl——

"brute!"
