The Eve of the Hunt (1)
In a medicine hall, the woman in red's left hand, which was dislocated and slightly fractured, had been fixed by orthopedic reduction, bandaging and fixators.
"That's it, keep it like this for three months, start with three months, and after three months, try to take it apart, and if it doesn't work, just continue to fix it, understand?"
Next to the woman in red, a young male doctor said to her lightly.
"Hmm. ”
The woman in red didn't make much of an expression, but after answering as usual, she stopped talking.
"Then you settle the fees here first, it's a total of nine dollars.
After that, you will go to the front desk again and prescribe a few medicines, what medicines, what course of treatment, and the doctor there will tell you.
That's it. ”
Seeing him say this, the woman in red silently took out nine pieces of money from a few cloth bags around her waist and put it on the table as he requested.
After waiting for him to click the account again, the woman in red stood up from her seat and walked out silently towards the front desk outside.
According to what the doctor who gave her orthopedics said, after prescribing a few pairs of medicines at the front desk and completing some other complicated procedures, the woman in red really walked out of this medicine hall.
recalled the trivial matters of the past few days: after killing two unscrupulous cultivators, he continued to take the task for two days and one night without sleep.
The next day, he met Yuan Li, and the next night, that is, last night, he slaughtered the entire Yuan family without leaving behind.
Until now, she has not slept for three days and two nights, and it is true that she is still awake at this time.
However, it is also true that he is extremely sleepy.
Now she is only struggling with two things: she wants to leave immediately, go to the next county, and rest on the way there.
Or find an inn here, take a rest, and then go.
The former has little to worry about, but the latter ......
If you rest here first, I'm afraid that trouble will come to you one after another.
Although, only the local law enforcement hall may come to look for her, and she can also be sure that the local law enforcement hall is not her opponent at all.
But the woman in red was still uneasy, and this inexplicable sense of crisis disturbed her uneasy.
In fact, what the woman in red didn't know was: the first prey to offend her: Yuan Li.
She didn't die in the slaughter last night, which is why she felt uneasy.
After struggling for a long time, looking at the blood stains and countless stains on his body, he finally decided to rest here for two days.
Take good care of yourself, at least to the point where you can show others, and then pretend to travel, and feel comfortable in your heart.
After making up her mind, the woman in red began to look left and right, looking for a better inn, after all, she had broken her left hand, of course, she had to be kind to herself.
After a lot of effort, I finally found an inn that is friendly and convenient for people with disabilities, and I immediately checked in.
Even though the woman in red was a disabled person, embarrassed and covered in scars, not many people showed much surprise at this.
After all...... This kind of existence like the woman in red, although it is not common, but in general, they have seen a lot, and in their eyes, the woman in red must be a loose cultivator who is not self-sufficient.
Because she took on a task that she couldn't complete, it couldn't end unexpectedly, and the mission failed, so she was so embarrassed that she needed a stronghold to recuperate.
And the woman in red will naturally follow their concept and directly make up this kind of perfunctory snack lies to prevaricate in the past.
In fact, this is indeed the least suspicious and the most effective lie, and if you are not a long-standing or ugly person, no one will notice you and think deeply about your lie.
But with the embarrassed posture of the woman in red at the moment, who will notice her peerless face?
The Yuan family's mansion
"Arrange people to find all the boundaries within a radius of twenty miles around here, and don't let go of any inns and restaurants.
Inns that have been searched, but have not received results, and any place where people can stay, make a mark.
In this way, send a signal to others that there is no need to search in vain, and that it is up to you to decide what mark to use.
If you find the woman in red, you must not act rashly and startle the snake!
After making a sign that means "find the target, return quickly", come to the Purple Sect to find me, even if you find nothing, you have to come back.
Give them two hours to go ahead. ”
"Yes. ”
In the front yard of the main house of the Yuan family, Yuan Li commanded the servant in front of him with a serious face.
Although his tone revealed an undisguised sense of command, his temperament was very different from before.
If you want to say that in the past, it is just that: Yuan Li, who has nothing to do all day and only thinks about how to have fancy pleasures, will never manage any family affairs, there is no need to say more.
Even if you tell your subordinates to do something, it will never be a serious matter, and the tone will be full of disgusting deliberate artificiality, or undisguised inferior temperament.
But looking at him now, he issued the first normal order, and even the tone of his speech became serious and serious.
The two servants in front of him felt a lot more comfortable when they saw him have made such a change.
The servant who had been ordered by him, after listening to his instructions, answered lightly, and walked out towards the courtyard gate.
After seeing him leave, Yuan Li then said to another servant who was waiting for instructions: "I have inquired clearly, among the people who were slaughtered last night, it was not only our Yuan family.
Even the law enforcers who rushed to hear the news were all slaughtered, so I believe: I am not the only one who wants to find the woman in red now.
The Law Enforcement Hall must also be looking for her, you go and communicate with the Law Enforcement Hall in this jurisdiction, with me, the son of the Yuan family......
No, in the name of me, the head of the Yuan family!
Tell them that a casual cultivator like her, once she wants to escape, she will just run away, and posting her wanted notice is just a waste of time and useless work.
The most effective way should be to directly use all the power to find the woman in red in a race against time.
If you find her, you must come to the Purple Sect to inform me as soon as possible.
Also: Whoever can find her and bring her body directly to me, whoever it is, I will reward him with two gold ingots!"
"Yes!"
The second servant, who received the order, also answered lightly in this way, and walked out.
Seeing that the building was already empty, Yuan Li was also ready to walk out of the courtyard gate and go to the Purple Sect.
The reason why he wanted to go there was that he was ready to let the Purple Sect cooperate with his own forces to hunt down the woman in red.
Although there is no whereabouts of the woman in red yet, ...... It's better to prepare for everything in advance than to cram.
The second point is that he also had the idea of becoming a monk!
I saw that he had just walked a few steps, and before he was discharged from the hospital, he saw a girl who looked to be seventeen or eighteen years old in a blue and white plain dress, walking towards him.
This girl's body belongs to the petite and cute category, with the white and delicate skin on her face, pink cherry lips, and the light fragrance that accompanies her body.
It shows that she is also just a mortal with no cultivation.
At this moment, her face was full of worry, and before she approached Yuan Li, she asked eagerly: "Today, there have been some bad rumors everywhere, and the entire Yuan family is also worried.
What happened last night?"
Seeing her coming, Yuan Li didn't even give her a straight look, but just continued to walk uncharacteristically towards the courtyard gate.
While walking, he said lightly: "It's nothing, I have other things, so I won't accompany me." ”
Seeing Yuan Li's performance so abnormally weird, the look on the girl's face added to the confusion.
"What's wrong with you? Why are you so strange, could it be true as they said: half of the Yuan family...... Have they all been slaughtered?"
The girl's emotions suddenly became a little excited, and she asked eagerly.
Ignorance...... Is it because of Yuan Li's rudeness, or because of the panic at the fact that the Yuan family was slaughtered.
And Yuan Li, who was pacing towards the door, heard her say this, and suddenly stopped his steps, and opened his mouth without looking back, as if he was about to say something.
However, after hesitating for a while, he still didn't say anything, just a faint "um", and then walked out the door.
Hearing Yuan Li's answer, the girl was stunned......
Purple Sect
"Ask your sect master to come out, and say that the head of the Yuan family has come to him!
Or just take me to see him!"
At the main gate of the Purple Sect, Yuan Li ordered the guards in front of this gate in an unquestionable tone as he jumped off his horse.
Although the guards did not know what was going on, this notorious local gentleman would claim to be the local tyrant.
He also threatened to find the head of a sect of the Purple Sect, saying that there was something important to discuss.
Of course, although their hearts were full of many doubts, after all, in the face of the eldest son of the Yuan family, they still didn't dare to give face and rashly drove away.
After a while, they decided what to do.
"If you want to see our sect master directly, then come with me. ”
Among the several guards, one of the short men stood up and said lightly to Yuan Li, and after speaking, he walked into the Purple Sect by himself.
Seeing this situation, Yuan Li in the rear naturally followed silently, and it is worth mentioning that before Yuan Li left, he also took down a bulging cloth bag from the horse.
