- The talkative servant girl couldn't help but tremble when she heard this, and she didn't dare to say anything more.

A few maidservants entered the house to clean up the scraps, and the maidservant who had been orally lectured by Lin Shan's henchman guard at the door just now suddenly couldn't help but say again: "What! I'm not just gossiping, what kind of fierce is that guard."

A tall servant girl beside her dissuaded: "You better say less!" You are not familiar with that guard, how can you gossip about the affairs of your master's house in front of him? Let alone...... The little brother at the door just now was right, don't think that you are a weak woman, you can be presumptuous with this. Of course, a gentleman will not embarrass a woman for some trivial things, but do you know what the result will be if you are disgusted by him? That is, Miss Chen's appearance, talent, and character, can be a caring person for Mr., and occasionally frolicking willfully can be unscrupulous."

"Che, that's your private opinion, but in my opinion, it's not. Look at the tea cup that was almost glued to Lin Shansheng's hand, don't you see? Although the Chen family's wine is mellow and attracts an endless stream of drunken buyers, Mr. Lin has directly quit drinking, what does this mean?" The handmaid who was talking at the door just now said to the tall handmaid with great disapproval, "After all, it's still disgusting...... Miss Chen was originally a celebrity in Dongfeng Building, and she stayed in that building for a long time before Dongfeng Building changed the rules of the door plaque...... Is she still a girl......"

Except for herself, who said this, all the maidservants who were cleaning up the scraps at the table stopped moving.

When the talkative servant girl saw this scene, she already realized that an extremely strong oppressive force came from the gazes of several handmaidens around her and smashed it on her face.

A servant girl in the left corner of the table suddenly said with a penal voice: "Pray that you don't marry the wrong man in the future!" Because people like you only need one setback, and they will never be able to get up and cheer up. It's a setback like this, maybe every woman can't avoid it without going into the building. Looks like you're in danger! "

The tall servant girl also spoke, and said in a cold voice: "Why wait for that kind of test, a servant girl like you who likes to talk long and short, I'm afraid that I just need to send you back to the Mu Lao General's Mansion in Kyoto, and a word loss can kill you."

A servant girl in the right corner of the table also said with a cold face: "It's really a shame that you are still a servant girl who has been cultivated in General Mu's mansion. General Mu's wife is the aunt of Emperor Ling of the previous dynasty, and the old general also has a daughter-in-law who is also a member of the royal family of the former dynasty, and the backyard of this family can be described as the most complex and dangerous household among the nobles of Kyoto. Because the noble identity of the mother's family is subverted. The struggle between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law in the backyard of Mu Mansion is even more distorted of human nature. You haven't tasted lasagna, chili oil, and skewered tofu in it, and you should have seen others enjoy it, so how can you forget what the curse of the tongue can do?"

Lasagna. It refers to wetting the belt with leather inside and embroidered brocade cloth outside, and then whipping the person. This torture instrument can be carried around, and it is not too conspicuous like a mace, but the servants and maids who have been served by this torture instrument. It is inevitable that there will be scars on the body that will not be erased for many years.

Chili oil is relatively simple, it is a red soup made by soaking chili peppers and peppercorns in boiling oil. It's just that when using this kind of thing to punish the servant, it is usually made to lie on the back or swallow it upside down. The slightest mistake in the swallowing angle may lead to a dumb person. Even if he escaped the catastrophe of becoming dumb, the servant who swallowed this chili oil. Diarrhea for at least seven days, the mouth and tongue will be paralyzed and tasteless for at least a month, and you will not be able to swallow half of the hot food. To eat half a month of raw food waiting for the injured mouth to recover.

This trick was learned by two princesses of different generations from the Ministry of Punishment, but it has to be said. Their intentions are ingenious. Although these two condiments are a bit expensive, they are very popular on the table in Kyoto, and they are well stocked and can be used at any time, and they can afford to pay for the expenses of the Mu house. It's just that the servants and maids are suffering, and the ingenious wisdom of the two princesses can only make people fearful.

The first two punishments are widely used in the punishment of theft and long tongue of servants and maids in the back house of Mu Mansion, respectively, as for whether the punished person really stole the master's valuables, or criticized the master with many mouths, he may still have done nothing, just blocked the intersection of the two princesses walking around the garden, and was dragged to punishment, no one knows.

As for the punishment of skewering tofu, it is a bit ingenious, and it also shows the distorted wisdom of the two hostesses.

There is no tofu that can be picked up with a thin needle, and when the two hostesses of the Mu Mansion who have the status of the princesses of the previous dynasty asked the servants and maids to string the tofu with needles, they not only asked the servants and maids to pinch the sharp long needles to the tofu strings in the hands of the servants and maids, but also worried that they would not be able to prick each other's fingers when they had experience, so they ordered them to be able to fluently answer the family rules and regulations of the Mu Mansion that the two princesses studied at any time while stringing the tofu.

The eldest princess and the fourth princess of the previous dynasty got together to become a mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, and the identity of the royal family was lost, so they devoted themselves to the struggle for the status of the family house.

This is the hell in the hearts of many palace slaves who were assigned to Mu Mansion! Even if one day they were extremely lucky enough to have a reason to leave there, how many midnight dreams they had, they still couldn't escape the terrible torture they had suffered in the back house of the Mu Mansion.

At this time, the maid who was talking a lot at the door of the dining room of Lin Shan's residence, and when she entered the hall to clean up the leftovers and dishes, she was open-mouthed, and she came out of the Mu Mansion.

So the other handmaidens who cleaned up the table with her, in addition to writing that they were not used to the pampering and arrogant words of this person at the door just now, and listening to this person's criticism of the old wine in the hall, really angered the maids, and the handmaidens were really a little curious, this long-tongued girl really came out of the Mu Mansion?

And after being verbally beaten by the servants around him, the long-tongued maid seemed to be real. [,！ I remembered the terrible back house of the Mu Mansion. Of course she didn't want to be sent back there, her spiritual world was filled with fear at an extremely fast speed, and she didn't have time to think about all the good things in Lin Shan's residence, and all that was left in her mind was the horror of the Mu Mansion that was thousands of miles away.

Her hands trembled, and her shoulders trembled. After a while, she suddenly said hoarsely, "I don't want to go back...... But where do we end up? It is obviously impossible for Mr. Lin to stay in Northland forever......"

The tall maid on the side smiled warmly, then raised her eyebrows and said, "It's where you're going to end up, not us. The old pharmacist is gone, and you're not alone. Mr. Lin won't stay here for long."

Halfway through her words, she glanced around at a few maidservants in the hall, and said with a slightly slower face: "So we have discussed it, so we will stay in the Chen family's small winery, and we will go wherever the eldest sister goes. We really admire the ability of the wine sister and are willing to follow her to be a wine lady. Who said that a woman can only be entangled with a woman in her life, if she can't find a good match. We'd rather live the moment. Don't make a living to marry a bad man, suffering hardships and suffering have no good results, that is a ruined life."

Several handmaidens standing at the table, who were obviously in line with the tall handmaiden, nodded their heads again and again.

The tall maid suddenly smiled leisurely again. added: "However, with Sister Jiu's wide connections in Kyoto, as long as you follow her, it seems that you don't have to worry too much about finding a lover. When the time comes, watch me pour a pot of old Chen family wine. Wouldn't it lock a man's heart better than those brocade embroideries?"

"Yes, yes!"

"Sister Jiu said a long time ago that you have to keep a man's heart. You have to lock the man's stomach first, and I will recite this sentence several times a day."

"Sister Jiu has been trying to make fruit wine these days, I have tasted it, maybe in the future, I can not only lock the hearts of men with wine. Even my mother-in-law and sister-in-law have picked it up together! "

All the maidservants in the hall laughed unconsciously, and the trace of melancholy that was still lingering between their brows just now was suddenly melted away...... And some of them seemed to be all glued together into the eyes of the mouthy maid who had just speculated on the obscure past of the old wine.

In the midst of the joyful discussion of the maidservants. There was a certain color in the eyes of the mouthy servant girl that was sinking little by little. She doesn't want to appreciate other people's happiness but can't have it herself. So she looked elsewhere.

At this time, no one noticed that the dark color in the eyes of this servant girl was getting deeper and deeper, and gradually a little aura.

But at this moment, a person suddenly walked in from outside the door, and his eyes happened to meet the hint of anger in her eyes. The handmaid with a sensy gaze was stunned, and the speed at which she cleaned up her floating scheming was a little slower. The guard who came suddenly had been with Lin Shan's side for a while, and his eyesight was not low, and he could see at a glance that this woman seemed to have evil intentions, and she was also slightly stunned.

However, when he withdrew his eyes to look at the rest of the maidservants in the hall, he thought that he understood that the gloomy look he had just witnessed might just be due to the jealousy between the women over something, so he didn't take this little matter to heart.

Among the several servant girls who were laughing in the hall, one of the servant girls noticed the guard who suddenly ran in a little faster than everyone else, obviously familiar with each other, and she immediately shouted: "Brother Shanliang!"

"Sister Mian'er......" In front of everyone's eyes, the guard named Shan Liang suddenly felt a little embarrassed to shout out this title that he was already familiar with.

In fact, the handmaidens who came to their attention together, because they were still discussing how to lock the man's heart just now, so when they heard the slightly intimate name of the two people in front of them, they unconsciously had a little more subtlety in their eyes.

With a slightly embarrassed smile, Lin Shan's close congratulatory Shanliang got down to business, and said with a smile: "Do you know where Lord Lin went?"

Immediately, a servant girl said, "Have you gone to send the old pharmacist?"

Soon another maidservant disagreed: "It seems that she did not leave the dining room through the front door, but may have gone to the study."

Shan Liang shook his head and said, "No, I came from the study, and the door is still locked. And if Lord Lin wants to send the old pharmacist, he won't bring his attendants."

At this time, the maid Mian'er, who was familiar with Shanliang, thought about it and said, "Sister Jiu is not here, maybe Mr. Lin went to the wine shop with her."

When Shan Liang heard this, he shook his head again and again and said, "Lord Lin can't get into alcohol now......" Halfway through his words, he suddenly closed his mouth, looking nervous. Maybe it was because the young women he was facing had known each other for a long time, so he was negligent for a moment and missed half a sentence.

It was only a few close servants like him who were informed of this in order to facilitate the attendants. But of course, Shan Liang also remembered Lin Shan's repeated emphasis that this matter must be kept secret, otherwise this weakness will be taken away by someone with a heart, but it will cause great harm.

The attendant standing outside the door suddenly walked in and slapped Shan Liang.

A trace of blood overflowed from the corner of Shan Liang's left mouth, and the maid Mian'er next to her screamed in shock when she saw this scene.

Shan Liang did not speak, nor did he express his anger at the guard who had smoked him. He just raised his right hand suddenly, not to wipe the blood from the corner of his mouth, nor to return the slap to the guard who had slapped him, but to slap him again.

The guard who had just walked in from outside the door and slapped people with his slap only then said in a hard voice, "What's the matter?" Go outside and say, what is there to say here! "

The two guards immediately walked out together, as if they didn't remember the two slaps just now.

All the maids at the table stopped talking, and their men moved again. And it's faster to clean up the tables.

Wait for a qiē to be cleaned up. When the women were about to leave the dining room with the trays, the tall man was tall. [,！ The handmaid who picked it suddenly said in a deep voice: "Today we are just cleaning up the plates in the dining room, and nothing else has happened. Did the big guy remember?"

All the maids nodded when they heard this, and there was no longer a trace of relief on their faces.

The more things you have in your heart, the more people naturally can't be too easy to learn the secrets you know. Not all of them are beneficial gains. The maidservants inadvertently learned the truth that Lin Shan couldn't drink alcohol today, although it was enough to overturn the gloomy argument of the mouthy maid just now. proves that Lin Shan doesn't drink the wine made from old wine, it's not that she dislikes anything, but who dares to say this?

This secret is like a double-edged sword, hanging over the heads of the handmaidens from today onwards. I'm afraid that only when they no longer wait for Lin Shan, and go thousands of miles away to cut off the connection, will the threat of this sword dissolve due to long-term forgetfulness.

The maidservants couldn't laugh anymore. But the maidservant girl who had shown gloomy eyes in the laughter of everyone just now smiled at this time. She didn't smile very brightly, but the corners of her mouth moved like a twitch. And although she was smiling, the anger in her eyes seemed to be heavier.

It's just that because she walked at the back of all the maidservants, no one noticed the smile in the corner of her eyes and mouth that was even more cruel than a curse.

The smile was only faint and calm.

Whether it is a few maidservants who came to the dining room to clean up the table and plates, or the two guards guarding outside, at this time, there is a change of cloudy and sunny in their hearts, but the matters of these two aspects of people's hard work and sadness are a little different.

The guard Shanliang came to look for Lin Shan, because Liao Shi took a step ahead just now, and when he met him at the gate of the residence, he handed him something and asked him to pass it on. This was not an urgent matter, but to Shan Liang's surprise, after only a few moments, several of the main characters in the residence were gone.

The guard who slapped Shan Liang just now, after listening to Shan Liang's report, thought about it and said: "Although the people in this place are still relatively simple and peaceful, exceptions are not ruled out. You take my waist card and summon a few people to look for it in the west of the town."

Shan Liang took the waist card and said hesitantly: "If Lord Lin really went out of the town to send the old pharmacist, how can you be sure that you are going to the west?" We don't know where the old pharmacist's ancestor mountain gate is."

The guard he asked explained: "It is impossible to go north, there are almost no deep mountains and forests there, and it is almost to the wild goose realm, and the old medicine master will not go there when he returns to the mountain gate, so there are only the remaining three sides. I'll go to Jiang Chao, and I'll go to the east and south to look for it, so you don't have to worry about it."

Yamara nodded and went.

Just when the guards in Lin Shan's residence were all facing a dark cloud on their heads, and they were calling the whole team to prepare to go out of the town to find someone, the two people they were looking for had already left the stone archway at the entrance of the town. Two horses, a couple of men galloped at a moderate pace on the unrepaired dirt road at the entrance of the town, their hooves moving in unison, rolling up a cloud of smoke.

This road did not go far, and the two men and two horses turned into a mountain pass.

It is not very accurate to say that these two people rode horses to climb the mountain, because the "mountain" climbed by the two horses can only be described as a mound. The mountain is not steep, and the sparse trees on the mountain are comparable to the top of the head of a middle-aged man who gives thanks to life. The horses of the north have long been accustomed to this kind of sparse mountain forest, and can run wild in it almost without hindrance, as if walking on the ground.

However, Lin Shan and Chen Jiu did not continue to walk on the dirt road, but carried the reins to the horse to climb the mountain, the main reason was that they had caught up with the footsteps of Liao Shi and Yan Xingzhi.

On the top of the mountain, a man and a woman on horseback on the mountain looked at the old man and the young man walking on foot on the dirt road down the mountain, and the speed of the horse was slower to the same pace. In this way, four people walked together on two parallel lines, one high and one low, hundreds of meters apart.

The slender old man walking on the dirt road carried the bamboo basket behind his back, and the belt around his neck that framed the medicine box like a necklace, because it was filled with no less than forty-three small medicine bottles, and it was quite hard because it was filled with no less than forty-three small medicine bottles, and at this time it was like a large jewel pendant at the front of the necklace, bouncing on his sunken chest as he walked step by step.

The old man's shoulders, thin as bamboo slices, still hung the blanket stuffed with slices of braised dried pork. At the end of the jacket hung the old gourd that was fifty years old, and it was also "walking" on his crotch.

Liao Shi threw all the weight on Yan Xingzhi's body onto his shoulders, which were not strong.

Yan Xingzhi, the only grandson of Yan Guang, walked beside Liao Shi, and he was very close. The vision of the two people on horseback on the mountain was slightly blurred, and Yan Xingzhi's hand was placed under the medicine basket behind Liao Shi's back, as if he wanted to use his hand to support it as much as possible to help Liao Shi lose some weight.

The three years of living in the Northland are the years of Yan Xingzhi's growth. A diet with more meat and less vegetables. Let this young man, who was still as tall as Liao Shi when he came, now has grown to the height of Liao Shi's forehead on his shoulders.

In order to hold the medicine basket that was on Liao Shi's back, Yan Xingzhi had to walk with a slight bow. So the appearance of the old and the young walking together looks as awkward as it gets.

Lin Shan, who was riding slowly on the hill here, finally couldn't bear to sigh and said: "That medicine box is full of medicine bottles that the medicine master regards as treasures, so the box is made of three layers of materials, and there is a layer of iron plate made of forging hundreds of times in the middle. The box is not big. But I weighed and added those bottles. It weighs nearly thirty pounds in total. Counting the set of tools for climbing the cliff and digging medicine in the bamboo basket behind him, he must have fifty pounds in his body."

Chen Jiu, who was riding a horse beside him, pondered and said, "It's about the weight of half a bucket of water next to the well pavilion in the backyard?"

Lin Shan nodded, and said, "Uncle Liao has to walk about four hundred miles with the weight of this half bucket of water."

"Four hundred miles?" Chen Jiu's eyes showed a hint of surprise, and he looked at the old and young people walking slowly on the dirt road down the mountain in a somewhat awkward posture. She thought about it. [,！ After a while, he said: "From this direction, where his division is located, it should reach the clear water and surrounding mountains in Zhongzhou. But. The people of Zhongzhou can make move, and he won't let you send someone to send him. You can also send someone from Zhongzhou to pick it up."

"It may be in the Zhongzhou range, but it may not be in the clear water and surrounding the mountains...... I don't know ...... accurate," Lin Shan lowered his head a little in annoyance, and then quickly raised it again, "Liao Shi is considered to be the same generation as my mentor, but his sect was separated from the Beili School a few generations ago, otherwise it would not have been passed down to the present day, and there would not be such a big difference in expertise and attainment. Since their Medicine Valley has become an independent faction, it is not easy for the Northern Fence to intervene. Perhaps only the official inheritors of the generation of the Beili School can have enough manpower to find out the specific location of the Medicine Valley, but I think it's better not to know, lest the Medicine Valley be robbed."

Hearing the words "Inheritor of the Northern Fence School" in Lin Shan's words, she didn't think deeply about how the Medicine Valley might be destroyed because of the leaked address, she just unconsciously remembered what Liao Shi explained to her a few days ago.

Regarding the Hokuri School, which is extremely low-key, but has a long journey that is almost the same as the previous dynasty's operation, it has strange school rules that are like the laws of the monks.

If Lin Shan can't inherit the position of the inheritor of this Shimen school, or if he voluntarily renounces his qualifications before returning to Shimen to compete for the promotion, does that mean that he doesn't have to comply with this regulation? That means that he can really make a lifelong commitment to the woman around him who he likes happily?

Looking at Chen Jiu, she seemed to be thinking about something, and she looked slightly distracted, but Lin Shan could not accurately recognize the thoughts in her heart at this time, and only thought that she was still pondering the location of the medicine valley.

After a little consideration, Lin Shan said slowly: "Although only Liao Shi knows the way back, since he took the initiative to take Yan Xingzhi to the Medicine Valley, he should be able to take care of it well no matter how far he travels along the way."

Chen Jiu retracted his distant thoughts, and nodded lightly when he heard the words. And when her thoughts returned to her eyes, she suddenly remembered something she had heard Lin Shan accidentally mention about Medicine Valley before, and couldn't help but ask, "Could it be that Medicine Valley kidnapped children to practice hidden puppets is true?"

――――

On the top of the hill a hundred paces away on one side of the dirt road, when the couple on horseback were talking about a certain topic at a critical juncture, the old man on the dirt road parallel to the ridge, who was carrying many heavy loads on his chest and back, and seemed to be crushed by this, was also talking to the young man beside him to a point where he was about to quarrel.

Yan Xingzhi wanted to remove the bamboo basket on Liao Shi's back and carry some weight for this elder whom he respected incomparably, but it was already the sixth time that he was pushed away by the old man's thin palm.

"It's just a bamboo basket, and it's not heavy!" Yan Xingzhi, who had just been pushed away, did not come close for the time being, and kept a distance of three steps from Liao Shi. He was rejected many times, and he couldn't help but be a little strangely annoyed, raised his eyebrows and said: "If you don't let me carry it, the burden in my heart is heavier!"

Liao Shi still didn't back down at all, and said with a breath in his nostrils: "Nonsense, this is just the weight of half a bucket of water, and I can still afford it."

While he speaks. And I saw him put one hand on the medicine box in front of his chest. Let it bounce and bump on its fleshless sternum so often, and wrap its other hand around its back, tugging at the bottom of the bamboo basket. So that it doesn't always slip towards the sides of the skinny shoulders.

But this action, in Yan Xingzhi's view, is a bit like he is protecting himself, and he no longer allows himself to touch the slightest appearance.

Yan Xingzhi pouted and said, "I know that the pharmacist is going to take me to a somewhat distant and dangerous place. These days, I have been paying attention to recuperating my body, and it is only a 400-mile road. Not to mention that I will carry the weight for you the whole time, at least 200 miles of weight can still be done."

"And then the remaining two hundred miles, you want me to carry you on your back?" Liao Shi said extremely sharply, and paused slightly. He said, "That's what killed me!"

Yan Xingzhi was silent, his eyes full of frustration.

Regarding the strange disease that has been passed down from the Yan family for four generations, the cause has not yet been figured out. Three years ago, I started to have the first symptoms of that strange disease. Although Liao Shi has extremely precise drug development, he still feels relatively good about himself. But he will not forget that the time between the first appearance of his illness and his death was only three or four years.

If it weren't for the careful treatment of Liao Shi, the first pharmacist, Yan Xingzhi felt that he would probably have reached the state of his dead brother's terminal illness.

However, there is no pathological flashpoint in his body that is too strict, can it really be completely proved that he is not in a state of severe illness? Perhaps the current good state of physical fitness is only the result of fine control of medication, and it has not really changed the pathological constitution.

At least in the face of his seemingly good treatment state, Liao Shi, as a healer, has always been extremely rigorous, and his spirit has never relaxed in the slightest.

Since even the pharmacist didn't dare to slack off on this disease, he, a patient who hadn't even figured out the cause of his family's strange disease, should indeed follow the doctor's instructions everywhere.

And for the tragic situation when this family strange disease broke out in full force, Yan Xingzhi really didn't want to recall what his brother looked like before he died.

In fact, Liao Shi didn't want to say such cruel words, but Yan Xingzhi was too tough, so he would make a quick knife to cut off, and his verbal words would naturally become sharp.

Liao Shi has always disliked arguing with others on verbal falsehoods, except for the pharmacology of new subjects--in this regard, he has always believed that only his brother-in-law, who is close to demons, is worthy of discussing with him--for other trivial matters of life, he chooses to avoid as much as he can, and if he can't avoid it, he will express the most authentic results in the shortest words and in the most direct way

[,！ For example, when faced with a seriously ill person, life is life, and death is death, he rarely says anything that is almost certain of these words. It really hurts to talk like this, and it also brings him a lot of trouble. As a person, being able to say something beautiful should be a standing skill, but it is this temper that Liao Shi has cultivated since he was a child in the relatively closed living environment of Medicine Valley, and no one can change it lightly, including himself.

At this time, the old man looked at the young man's silent appearance, and he couldn't bear it, so his tone softened a little, but what he said again still seemed a little hard: "Wait a little longer!"

Yan Xingzhi slowly raised his head when he heard the voice, his eyes were still gloomy, and there was a trace of doubt at this moment.

Because he could hear from Liao Shi's tone that they seemed to be really waiting for someone or something, but this was before leaving, Liao Shi told him a lot of details about the long journey, and made sufficient preparations for the trek, but the only thing he deliberately omitted was not told.

And it seems that just waiting for this person or thing that is also waiting for them will be of great help to their situation of carrying a heavy burden at the moment.

"What are you waiting for?" Yan Xingzhi couldn't help but ask, and unconsciously, he stopped.

"Tell you to wait, you wait." Liao Shi also paused slightly, and suddenly smiled mysteriously on his face, still refusing to explain his words, "However, I don't tell you to wait where you are, we still have to continue to move forward."

"Oh......" Yan Xingzhi ran two steps fast. Keeping up with Liao Shi's pace.

Although he could obviously see that the old pharmacist had something to hide and refused to explain it quickly, he knew very well that although the old pharmacist had a withdrawn personality and spoke badly, he would not even have bad thoughts towards strangers, let alone treat him, a little follower of the medicine boy who had been officially recognized. If you don't say it, you won't say it, and it won't get in anyone's way anyway.

Yan Xingzhi is just physically ill, as a descendant of a famous medical family, he has been trained by the family's dogma since he was a child. The good character formed in this way will not be changed lightly because of physical illness.

He's not a frizzy person. And the old pharmacist finally admitted to accepting him as a medicine boy, which made him full of confidence in his "entanglement" formula. I don't know today, he will find a way to ask the old pharmacist another day when he is in a good mood. Definitely get a catch.

Looking at Yan Xingzhi's thoughtful appearance, Liao Shi's heart moved, and he wanted to ask him what little idea he was talking about, but the words changed again. Just said in a very casual tone: "Four hundred miles is Lin Shan's sue for you?"

"Yes......" Yan Xingzhi nodded without thinking, but he quickly seemed to understand something else from Liao Shi's words. Immediately asked again: "Isn't it?"

"Huh." Liao Shigan laughed.

Originally, he didn't want to say anything more about this matter, but when he thought that Lin Shan had finally been deceived by himself, he was a little proud. At this time, only the orangutan regretted that his beard was not long enough, otherwise he would say the next words while brushing his beard. In front of this newly acquired little medicine boy, he must be very good-looking.

"If you want to get rid of the people he sent to follow you, it's not enough for four hundred miles." Liao Shi let go of the hand pressed on the heavy medicine box on his chest and touched the short beard under his jaw, which was only half a finger long. "But if I say to him. It would take eight hundred and thirty miles to get back to the valley, and he must have known immediately that I was lying to him."

"Huh? Four hundred miles is fake?" Yan Xingzhi looked at the rickety old man with extremely surprised eyes, and after being stunned for a moment, he suddenly shook his head again and said, "Eight hundred and thirty miles, if you tell me, I won't think it's true."

"It's... Hey......" Liao Shi almost admitted that eight hundred and thirty miles was a reliable distance, but his words were cut off by himself after only one word. He wasn't sure if he would take this Yan family's only grandson back to Medicine Valley for the second time, so it would be useless to talk about it.

After a slight pause, he casually said perfunctorily: "It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter how long the road is."

Yan Xingzhi pursed his lips and thought for a moment, he gave up asking Liao Shi, "Why doesn't it matter", but said seriously: "Mr. Lin wants to give us a ride, and it is also a good intention, pharmacist, it is not right for you to lie to him."

Liao Shi smiled disapprovingly when he heard this, and said lightly: "If you can only refuse a person by deception, how will you choose?"

Yan Xingzhi didn't answer, but just puzzled: "Why do you have to refuse, isn't it acceptable?" Mr. Lin doesn't want to throw you a fireball, he just wants to send a few guards to escort you for a while, and you don't need to take care of the food."

"You don't know what kind of place Medicine Valley is, so you can speak out about this evil openly." Liao Shi sighed lightly, "If he sends someone to escort me, he will definitely send his most handy subordinates. Of course, I believe that these subordinates will be able to escort them safely, but I can't guarantee their return, and I can protect you at best. This way back, it's not like I can't walk by myself without those few guards to give me a ride, so why let him lose his most powerful subordinates."

Liao Shi's master has always only been in the ears of the world, and no one has ever been able to accurately say the specific location of this place.

Even if some of the false addresses are popular, they will soon be exposed. Because there are still many individuals or organizations who want to find the medicine valley and destroy it, as long as they really go out to investigate, they will find out which claims are false. But despite this, no one can strip away the real results just because they have ruled out false rumors.

Of course, there are still a few medical students who are not afraid of hardships and want to learn from teachers, but in addition to the hidden address, even the recruitment of people in the medicine valley does not seem to be an open way.
