Xiao Qiang's words did not receive any response, and there was silence around the thatched house, as if his words had never sounded before. Zhang Jingyi's heart sank, she knew that if the old Chinese medicine doctor was not here, then it was likely that they would have to go to Kunming Mountain, which was a very difficult choice.

In desperation, Xiao Qiang could only walk quickly to the thatched house and push the door open. Sure enough, there was no one in the house, just some Chinese herbs planted, as well as a wooden bed and some old daily necessities.

"It seems that the old Chinese medicine doctor is not in Jigong Mountain." Zhang Jingyi sighed, the last thing she wanted to appear was still there, she said helplessly, "We don't have tents and sleeping bags, if we catch a cold on the way to Kunming Mountain, I'm afraid it will be a problem if we can't even reach it." ”

Xiao Qiang pursed his lips, he knew that what Zhang Jingyi said was the truth, if they couldn't find the old Chinese medicine doctor in Jigong Mountain, then their hope of looking for them would be shattered. With regret and helplessness, he could only comfort, "Jingyi, otherwise, let's go back to Jiang Village first, get the tent and sleeping bag again, and then come over?" It's easier to go down than up, we had a night's rest here, left at dawn, and maybe went back all day. ”

Zhang Jingyi's beautiful eyes were a little dim, she bit her lip and said, "Xiao Qiang, it's too time-consuming to come and go, otherwise let's go directly to Kunming Mountain, it should be okay to go one night, let's build a bigger fire, if ...... If the two of them hug each other to keep warm, they should be able to survive the cold night. ”

"This ......" Xiao Qiang didn't expect Zhang Jingyi to be so resolute, and he actually thought of a way for the two to hug and warm up by their body temperature. The thought of being able to sleep with a beautiful woman in his arms at night, his little heart couldn't help but speed up his heartbeat.

"That's it, we...... Let's go first while we still have time. Zhang Jingyi's face was slightly red, she knew that what she just said was completely devoid of a woman's reserve, and stomped her feet shyly, "Anyway...... We must find the old Chinese medicine doctor! ”

"Okay...... Then let's go directly to Kunming Mountain. Xiao Qiang knew that Zhang Jingyi wanted to save the company, and he was embarrassed to refuse, so he could only nod in agreement, and wanted to leave the thatched house first.

"Whoosh!!" Just as Xiao Qiang walked to the door, a black shadow suddenly shot in, and before he could react, there was a cracking sound on the wooden pillar next to the door, and the sharp arrow had already been slammed into the wood of his face, trembling!

Xiao Qiang's whole body was a little stiff in fright, if this sharp arrow hadn't missed so much, I'm afraid it would have hit him directly in the neck, and he wouldn't even have any reaction before he died!

"Xiao Qiang!!" Zhang Jingyi screamed in surprise, and hurriedly stretched out her hand and quickly pulled him into the thatched house, for fear that he would be shot again by a sharp arrow. However, it seems that the person who shot the arrow outside did not make the next move, and did not continue after shooting this arrow.

At the moment of life and death, Xiao Qiang was really frightened, he wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, and hurriedly used the clairvoyant eye function to look out of the thatched house. I saw that dozens of paces away, an old man dressed sloppily, with a shawl and a long beard, was holding a crossbow in his hand, and was vigilantly facing the door of the thatched house.

"This ...... This is ......" Xiao Qiang was shocked and suddenly ecstatic, originally he thought that it was the follow-up of those ninja killers who wanted to kill him, but now he found out that the person who shot the arrow was not a ninja, but an old man! Judging from the sloppy dress of this old man, he is undoubtedly more like the old Chinese medicine doctor who has been in the mountains for decades and is used to living a savage life!

And now that I think about it, it is possible that the arrow just now missed at all, this old man obviously regarded them as intruders, and the sharp arrow that entered the wooden pillar of the door was just a warning, he didn't want to hurt anyone at all!

Sensing this, Xiao Qiang's heart suddenly felt a lot more relieved, but he didn't dare to really continue to show his head, shook Zhang Jingyi's nervous little hand, and gave her a comforting smile, he shouted loudly outside the house, "It's an old Chinese medicine doctor outside the house, I hope my friend and I don't be surprised if we take the liberty to visit!" We're not evildoers, we're just people who want you to help us heal, and we're sorry to go into the thatched hut without your consent, we just want to see if you're always in the house. ”

As soon as Xiao Qiang's words came out, the old man standing outside the house had not yet spoken, but Zhang Jingyi next to him was excited and her beautiful eyes were bright, and her pretty face turned red! If the person who shoots the arrow outside the door is really an old Chinese medicine doctor, it means that there is hope for her company to come back to life!

Sure enough, Xiao Qiang guessed correctly, and when the old man outside the house heard this, he put down his bow and crossbow, and said in a rather stiff and cold tone, "Come out, I don't like strangers to break into my house." ”

"Okay, we'll be right out." Xiao Qiang glanced at Zhang Jingyi with a little excitement, took her little hand and walked out of the thatched house.

At this time, Zhang Jingyi saw the true appearance of the old man outside the house clearly, looking at his old and yellow face, as well as his sloppy dress and hair, and even smelling the stench coming from his body, but these are not important, the important thing is that he is an old Chinese medicine doctor in the mountains, and he is the person she finally found who can save the company after so many hardships and hardships!

"Hello old Chinese medicine doctor, my name is Xiao Qiang, and I am the nephew of Zhang Tianzheng of Jiang Village under the mountain, do you remember me?" Xiao Qiang pointed to his face and said, "I was scratched when I was a child, and it was my grandfather who carried me up the mountain to find you, and my scar was completely healed." ”

The old Chinese medicine doctor stared at Xiao Qiang for a long time before he said coldly, "I have saved too many people, and they are so old that I can't even remember myself." You came to me, what's the matter? ”

"Oh, that's right, I've been injured in the abdomen with a hidden weapon, and I want you to help me heal." Xiao Qiang said this, and walked to the old Chinese medicine doctor's side, revealing the wound that had been bandaged in the ribs.

Although the old Chinese medicine doctor has lived in the mountains for so many years, he still respects the injured. He put down his bow and crossbow, and after he stepped forward and reached out to tear the gauze of Xiao Qiang's wound, an obvious scar was exposed to the air.

After being nourished by the aura of heaven and earth, the wound has initially healed and no longer bleeds, and it seems that there is no major problem. The old Chinese medicine doctor frowned a little solemnly and reached out to wipe the wound, then let it be licked in his mouth, and looked at Xiao Qiang with some surprise, "There is a toxin on the edge of your wound, but you ...... Why is it okay? ”

"Uh......" Xiao Qiang didn't expect that the old Chinese medicine doctor was so clever that he could even find a small amount of residual toxins, so he didn't know how to explain it. He can't say, I have a strange treasure, can cure all kinds of poisons, right?

"It seems that you are a master of detoxification, and the healing of wounds is basically fine, so you don't need to come to me at all." The old Chinese medicine doctor's face turned cold, "Your purpose is obviously not to cure diseases, I hate deception the most, forgive me for not sending guests, please go!" ”

"Old Chinese medicine doctor, this ......" Xiao Qiang was really a little dumbfounded, this old Chinese medicine doctor really has a strange and hard temper, how can he drive people out if he doesn't agree? They had a hard time finding this place, but they couldn't just waste their efforts!
