With a "bang", the bamboo flute slid from Meng Heng's hand to the ground, striking with the bluestone slab, making a crisp sound.

Meng Heng gritted his teeth, and a layer of cold sweat broke out on his forehead.

It was he who was careless.

Since he came to this plane, he had never encountered such a powerful youkai that could get a breath from the sound of his flute.

No, perhaps because of the tumbling pain in his body, he was a little unable to play the lullaby.

At this moment, his shoulder was being grabbed fiercely by the monster with its sharp claws, and there was a faint smell of blood.

Meng Heng's eyes narrowed instantly. His sanity was on the verge of collapse.

The smell of blood and the strange pain that constantly hit his nerves were intertwined back and forth, and he only felt as if there was a ghostly force in his body screaming to break through the shackles.

Damn everything that held him back!

Meng Heng glared at the banshee like crazy, teeth faintly glowing with cold light could be seen in his mouth, he had been driven by that crazy thought, and subconsciously wanted to pounce on her and bite her to death.

Just like the goblins who are fierce.

However, at this moment, the banshee seemed to be the first to sense Meng Heng's intentions, and the strength on her claws suddenly increased by ten points, and suddenly it sank into Meng Heng's shoulder.

A sharp sting came over me, and the thick smell of blood filled the air.

But at the same time, the severe pain in his body made Meng Heng's mind sober for a moment!

Regardless, he couldn't tolerate his will getting out of his control, especially if it became like a beast or demon.

If that were the case, then his very existence as a hypnotist would be gone.

Meng Heng gritted his teeth as hard as he could, and the green tendons on his temples were covered with dense cold sweat.

"You give it to me, stop." He said word by word, and the net of heaven and earth had been laid in his eyes like an abyss and a sea of stars.

The transformation between strong and weak is only in a moment.

When the boy was discovered, it was already nightfall, and passers-by who happened to pass through this dark alley smelled a smell of blood that could not be ignored, so they dared to ask someone to touch into the dark alley with him, and carried a lamp to shine, but found a person who was bleeding half of his body.

Seeing that this person was dying, and because his face was stained with blood, he could not tell who he was and whose identity he was, and they were a little undecided, and they did not know whether this person was dead or alive, nor did they know whether to send this person to the yamen or the hospital.

But there was a person who looked at the young man lying on the ground, and his expression changed suddenly.

"Li Qing, go over and find out the situation." The man said in a calm voice.

The person who was called Li Qing replied "yes" in a low voice, then walked over neatly, squatted down and probed the young man's snort.

"Master, the man is still alive." He immediately turned back and said.

The man nodded, his eyes became darker, he groaned slightly, and said, "Someone will take him back to the house to take care of him, and send a few doctors to treat him, and he must not be mistreated." ”

"Yes." The guard replied, and quickly disappeared into the darkness, and in a short time he called a carriage, and together with a man, carefully lifted the wounded boy into the carriage and drove away.

Then, the man standing on the outside of the crowd quietly followed the carriage.

Seeing this scene, the crowd of onlookers talked with each other for a while, and their interest faded and gradually dispersed.

said that the person who asked the boy to take him away was Xiao Yu who visited the boy in Cuiwei Forest Garden that day.

He and his guard Li Qing were waiting for news in a nearby inn, but after passing through this dark alley, they saw that there seemed to be a noise inside, so they came in to take a look, but they didn't expect to see that person.

Dr. Meng.

The appearance of the young man's wolf at this time was very different from the indifferent posture he saw in Cuiwei Forest Garden that day. The lips that were always smiling were tightly pursed at the moment, without a trace of blood, and the eyes that were hidden in the edge were also closed, and there was no anger at all.

It looks like he's badly injured.

Xiao Yu, who was sitting in another carriage, couldn't help frowning.

It can be said that the long conversation with the young man in Cuiwei Forest Garden that day did not obtain any useful information, and the more calm and undisguised the young man's attitude, the more suspicious he felt.

is called a doctor, but he is a heart disease that cannot be cured by doctors in the world, and he looks ordinary, but he has the skills to manipulate people's hearts and drive away evil spirits and catch demons.

What made him even more suspicious was the young man's life experience.

As he thought, of course, this Doctor Meng could not have appeared out of thin air, and he had called people to investigate carefully these days, and sure enough, he found a hidden event that was quite hidden.

Master Meng Renmeng, who was a member of the second rank of the dynasty, a secretary of the military department and a cabinet minister, once had a son, whose name was Meng Heng.

It's just that Meng Heng, the youngest son of the military department, died of illness three months ago.

And this Dr. Meng Heng Meng suddenly appeared in the past two months and became famous in the capital.

What is the relationship between these two people, or how an ordinary child of a family has transformed into a doctor Meng who can manipulate people's hearts, drive away evil spirits and hunt demons, this cannot but make him deeply suspicious.

Moreover, at the moment, the young man was seriously injured for unknown reasons and appeared in this dark alley......

Xiao Yu's expression became more and more gloomy, and his fingers involuntarily rubbed the edges of the cuffs.

As the night deepened and the people were silent, only two carriages drove one after the other to a secluded house in the city.

*

The daylight was faint, and when Xiao Yu returned home from the court and accepted the news from his subordinates, it was already after the evening of the next day.

"Back to Your Highness, after careful diagnosis and treatment and exploration of Dr. Meng yesterday, Wei Chen found a few unusual places." The man wearing the six-rank imperial physician crown on his head lowered his eyebrows slightly, and said to the young man in a respectful tone.

Xiao Yu narrowed his eyes and nodded, "Imperial Doctor Zhang, please speak." ”

"Dr. Meng's wound was three inches above the collarbone, the wound was extremely deep and slender, it seemed that the other party was about to pass through the shoulder, but fortunately it seemed that there was an obstacle in the middle, although Dr. Meng's injury was extremely deep, but there was no danger of life." The imperial physician came one by one, but when he said this, he paused slightly, and his tone changed a little subtly: "It's just...... Wei Chen carefully observed the wound, but found that this injury did not look like an ordinary person did it with a sharp weapon, but like a sharp claw of a fierce beast. ”

"Beast Claws?" Xiao Yu repeated these words meaningfully.

How can there be fierce beasts in the capital? It's just nonsense.

But this "nonsense" happened to the teenager......

Imperial Physician Zhang replied affirmatively: "Yes, although Wei Chen can't tell what kind of beast did it, he is ninety percent sure that this injury will not be caused by a human." ”

"Since Imperial Doctor Zhang is ninety percent sure of something, there will be no mistakes." Xiao Yu pondered for a long time, and Fang said.

Doctor Zhang was slightly humble, and said: "There is another matter, but it also makes Weichen deeply puzzled. ”

"Oh?" Xiao Yu raised his eyebrows and asked, "What's the matter?" ”

"Doctor Meng, he seems to be ......" Imperial Doctor Zhang seemed to have no idea where to start with this matter, hesitated for a long time, and finally took out a stack of paper bags from his sleeve, presented it to the young man, and said, "Your Highness, please take a look at this." ”

Xiao Yu took the paper bag and patiently opened it, but saw that there was a small pile of dark green, slightly blackened thick substance, and couldn't help frowning: "What is this?" ”

As the name suggests, it is a medicine that changes the appearance and hides people's ears and eyes. When Weichen was healing with Dr. Meng, he inadvertently found that the skin between Dr. Meng's neck was different, and he was suspicious, and saw that Dr. Meng's face was in cold sweat, so he ordered someone to wipe it with warm water, and sure enough, he found this thing. Imperial Doctor Zhang replied one by one, and couldn't help frowning: "I just don't know why this Doctor Meng wants to change his face, and who is he trying to hide?" ”

"...... disguise" A thought flashed in Xiao Yu's heart, he quickly glanced at Imperial Physician Zhang, his eyes darkened, and asked, "Then can Imperial Physician Zhang recognize Doctor Meng's true appearance under disguise?" ”

Imperial Physician Zhang shook his head and said, "Wechen has never seen it. Halfway through the words, he seemed to remember something again, and sighed slightly: "If Weichen has seen it before, then he will definitely not forget the person of Doctor Meng, because that kind of appearance is really the only one in Weichen's life...... Maybe it's because of this that Dr. Meng is so disgraceful. ”

Xiao Yu raised his eyebrows quietly, secretly speculating in his heart about Imperial Doctor Zhang's words.

If the reason for Dr. Meng's disguise was really so simple, then he wouldn't have to put so much effort into it.

He gave a few more orders to Imperial Physician Zhang, and then asked him to retreat, and then called Li Qing and a few secret guards in the evening, and ordered them to report to him the results of the investigation of the young man in recent days, until midnight.
