- Facing the young man in front of him who has watched him grow up for a few years and has changed a little, watching him question silently, Liao Shi felt that he was really sad in his heart......

However, after all, he has lived in this world for nearly fifty years, and his state of mind is gradually aging like his skin, and it is not easy for a trace of sadness to leave many deep traces.

Lifted the blanket that hung diagonally on his shoulder, took off the old gourd hanging at the end of the blanket, pulled out the wooden cork and drank a small sip on his neck, and let the mellow and mellow fifty-year-old wine tumble on the tongue coating again, and then swallowed it slowly.

Old wine is not very prickly, if you don't get drunk in one go, it gives people a floating feeling but it doesn't hurt overnight. Liao Shi swallowed the wine and took a deep breath, as if he wanted to swallow all the leakage of the wine back into his stomach.

Then he breathed a sigh of satisfaction again, as if this sip of wine would relieve him of his worries and refresh his spirits, and a smile gradually began on his wrinkled face.

If Yan Xingzhi could still look at his face calmly at this time, it would not be difficult to find that the deeper the old pharmacist's smile in the past, the deeper the wrinkles on his face, but although the old pharmacist was smiling at this time, the wrinkles on his face seemed to have become shallower.

This makes the face full of traces of time more clearly reveal a somewhat unfamiliar feeling, which Yan Xingzhi will never see before.

Liao Shi didn't say anything more, nor did he stand still and wait for Yan Xingzhi to come over and walk together, he just turned around and walked forward by himself. His two hands no longer pressed the medicine box on his chest and the bamboo basket behind him, but just flung one arm at random with the walking posture, and the other hand reached out to the blanket, blindly touching the dried braised pork stuffed inside, and throwing it into his mouth as he walked.

Seeing that Liao Shi had already walked out a little far, Yan Xingzhi seemed to suddenly come back to his senses, and he didn't speak, but just quickened his pace and trotted to catch up.

――――

Ride slowly on a sparsely wooded hill. Lin Shan, who was looking at the pair of travelers on the dirt road from afar, could roughly see that the old and the young seemed to have caused some verbal unpleasantness just now.

Lin Shan, with his own understanding of the personalities of the two people, although he could expect that the two would not let go of the grudge even if they had a conflict, but looking at the two people on the dirt road, they obviously widened the distance between each other when they walked. He still couldn't help but be a little worried. After hundreds of miles of travel, I just started to walk this short section, and there was a problem on the journey, and I didn't know what would happen later.

Yan Xingzhi did not hide from Lin Shan that he had signs of a strange family illness on his body, although the friendship between Lin Shan and the Yan family was not very far-reaching, but because of the relationship between the two parties, Lin Shan subconsciously took care of Yan Xingzhi carefully.

There is only one descendant of the Yan family, although with Yan Xingzhi's father's current age, it is not too difficult to marry a few more concubines and give birth to children, but to raise a baby to adulthood again. How long and how long does it take? And it's not sure if the next grandson of the Yan family can avoid this strange family disease.

Using the number of children to filter the probability of the onset of this disease is too cruel and cruel.

The best way is to find a healing technique, and from then on, completely cut off the dark clouds that have hung over the Yan family's heads for nearly a hundred years.

Whether it was for the sake of Yan Xingzhi's future consideration, the only grandson of the Yan family, or to put it cruelly, asking him to go to the Medicine Valley was just an attempt for himself. This may be the reason why Yan Guang, as the chief official of the Taiyi Bureau, has a noble status, but he did not prevent his only grandson from worshipping under the name of the notorious medicine ghost, but the children of the family are willing to be just a little medicine boy.

- Although Yan Xingzhi didn't think about it so much, being able to be Liao Shi's sidekick didn't make him feel aggrieved, but he was very happy.

He has lived next door to this only grandson of the Yan family for nearly three years. Lin Shan had also hesitated many times whether he should reveal some of Yan Guang's thoughts to him. In this way, even if the future treatment is not successful, he can be mentally prepared earlier.

However, Lin Shan soon found that he might have overthought about this matter, or that he had failed to grasp the young man's true thoughts.

This young man not only felt that he had been with Liao Shi for so long, but he had only been known as a little medicine boy. It's not a particularly aggrieved thing, and at the same time, in the motives of this young man following Liao Shi, there are hardly many shadows who are anxious to treat himself.

It seems that the young man really just wants to worship under the pharmacist and study pharmacology. He often sought advice from Liao Shi. Follow Liao Shi to explore the qiē medicinal materials that can be found in this barren land, and take notes carefully.

With such a dedication to studying, his body, which is already slowly developing lesions, will of course be a little unbearable, but even when he is so weak that he can only rest in bed, he hardly takes the initiative to mention the Yan family's strange disease to Liao Shi, and other book friends are reading:.

It is as if forgetting this matter is equivalent to forgetting the pain.

Now that he has hidden that he has this state of mind, it is not easy for Lin Shan to take the initiative to prompt anything.

At this time, he reminded Yan Xingzhi that his grandfather Yan Guang might have some thoughts, which were probably not helpful to him, but only increased his hindrance and mental distress.

But as long as he can take care of Yan Xingzhi in life, Lin Shan tries his best to be thorough, and this is the only place where he can help the Yan family.

said that he was taking care of everything, but in fact, Lin Shan actually didn't do much practical things for the old and young people who accompanied him to the north to eat sand thousands of miles away.

A few years ago, when Liao Shi was still living in seclusion in the small town adjacent to Xingjia Village, although the "Sanliang Pharmacy" he opened was often engaged in the sparse business of fishing for three days and drying nets for two days, it was actually very profitable, and he had accumulated a lot of savings in five years.

Later, because the residual poison in Mo Ye's body came to an end, he closed the pharmacy and went into the mountains again. Although during that period, he took medicine collection as all his life, but occasionally walked out of the mountains a few times, in addition to giving himself a small vacation, he could also target a wealthy family, and after taking a few pills, he easily collected a huge amount of silver......

For those who are rich, the money is inexhaustible, but the miracle doctor is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. The silver they exchanged for a pill of silver is a thousand taels for ordinary people, but for them, who are originally based on making money, it won't take long to earn it back from other ways. On the contrary, if you only live for half your life and become sick and disabled, then the family business will all wither.

For Yan Xingzhi, a child of the family and the only grandson of the Yan family, there is absolutely no need to worry about living consumption. It's not just silver. Considering that the north is barren and has limited resources, the servants of the Yan family who come every two months will also bring sufficient supplements, and ginseng lotus dates are constant.

In fact, outsiders including Lin Shan know it. These supplements did not play a good role in the Yan family's strange family disease, and most of these supplements were finally transferred to Chen Jiu by Yan Xingzhi, but Yan Xingzhi never refused anything to the servants of his family who came from afar. He took all the supplements, and he never said that he would ask the servant to bring back the message to stop the house.

The situation is obvious, only the parents who accept all the supplements sent by the family and watch over their son from afar at home can feel that they can still help their son do something.

In the face of the strange family illness like the curse of the evil spirit, everyone in the Yan family is often immersed in the negative feelings of extreme helplessness, and the feeling of powerlessness makes them often want to throw something on themselves. Therefore, this practice of sending tonics to the descendants of the Northland, although it is in the rich medical knowledge they already have. It's a very stupid thing, but they can only anesthetize themselves for the time being.

Because they really can't use what they have to know to do anything for their children.

Lin Shan couldn't use his own strengths to help Yan Xing; The huge amount of silver taels he can dispose of, this old and young do not need; There are many of his subordinates, but they are mostly used in fighting and tracking, and the people of this northland town are simple. Basically, they can't be used, even if there is any emergency, with a few medicine bottles hidden in Liao Shi's body, it is enough to deal with it.

What Lin Shan can do is to have a small gathering with Yan Xing from time to time, talk about some things, and solve some confusion.

In this world, perhaps only the medicine ghost Liao Shi can help the Yan family do what they are looking forward to.

The world's well-known about the medicine ghost Liao Shi is almost all negative information, and many big people have died by medicine; But what the world doesn't know, and what Liao Shijue is most proud of in this life, is the successful blood washing of the baby Mo Ye, who is poisoned with fetal blood. And the outsiders in the world who know about this matter, in addition to Mo Ye's master Lin Shan, and her biological father who lives in Kyoto. And then there is the Taiyi Bureau, the doctor is strict and wide.

Although speaking of this blood-washing therapy, Liao Shi also has to thank his near-demon junior brother, it was many years ago that Liao Shi returned to the medicine valley in order to dissuade his junior brother from stopping refining medicine puppets, and after fighting medicine with his junior brother for a few days and nights, he suddenly got this trace of medicinal inspiration.

The people of the world who have heard of Liao's notoriety, and even the doctors who have medical knowledge. I'm afraid it's hard to believe this. Liao Shi's medication has always been violent, and some adults can hardly bear it, but he successfully treated Mo Ye, who was only five years old eight years ago. And this treatment process is long-lasting, reaching five years, and it is also the first example of secular medical therapy.

But no matter what, Liao Shi succeeded, not only using this therapy to "wash" away the toxins that Mo Ye brought out from the mother's womb, but also achieving the expected miraculous effect to give Mo Ye a special physique. Even if there was no incident of killing snakes on the Foggy Mountain, thinking back on the changes in Mo Ye's physique in the past few years, Lin Shan could already be sure that this child's physique was not only extremely strong, but also had a kind of restraint ability against poison.

On the eve of returning to Kyoto, Lin Shan gave her some incense in order to send Li away quietly, so as not to make Mo Ye sad, but she didn't expect that she only slept in a daze for a while, and woke up by herself soon after! Seeing this scene for the first time, even Lin Shan was secretly startled.

Mo Ye's treatment effect made Lin Shan quite happy, and at the same time, it also made the grandfather of the Yan family, who had nothing to do with the child, ecstatic-because he saw the hope of his grandson regaining his health from Mo Ye's rebirth and the success of Liao Shixin's treatment.

I have to say that three years ago, Yan Xingzhi was determined to follow Liao Shi to the north to endure hardships, although he did not have much intention of planning for himself, but perhaps it was the mercy of providence, and a kind of opportunity was matched in the dark, and finally Liao Shi, who was withdrawn and only liked to walk alone all his life, suddenly had the idea of saving and continuing a person's life for free.

Yan Xingzhi often doesn't know what to write to his family, but he doesn't know that Lin Shan has helped him "ghostwrite" nearly half of this kind of thing to report his living situation to his family.

Regarding the details of Yan Xingzhi's physical lesions, in addition to often asking him to have dinner, Lin Shan would ask a few words briefly, mainly through Guò to Liao Shi's side, but obviously the information provided by Liao Shi's side was more reliable. Based on the information obtained, Lin Shan would regularly write letters to Yan Guang, the elder of the Yan family in Kyoto, and the letter would take the shortcut route of a direct letter between Lin Shan and the emperor, and the content of the letter would be Yan Xingzhi's daily physical condition. It is well documented and has not been embellished in the slightest.

If it weren't for that, just with the probability of Yan Xingzhi writing a letter to his family, it is estimated that he would not wait for Liao Shi's side to take Yan Xingzhi back to the Medicine Valley for treatment. I'm afraid that Yan Guang is already going to rush to the north with dozens of servants, and he will also tie Yan Xingzhi back.

Thanks to Lin Shan's help, Yan Xingzhi's physical lesions did not deteriorate so quickly. Although the living facilities in this small town in the north are scarce, as long as he can stay by Liao Shi's side, it is definitely better to alleviate Yan Xingzhi's condition than to let him stay in Kyoto, even if there are so many famous doctors in Kyoto, Yan Guang also has so many famous doctor friends.

Sometimes non-material help is so priceless.

In Yan Guang's latest reply letter from Kyoto, the old doctor expressed his most sincere gratitude to Lin Shan, but Lin Shan did not write that long letter in the same old fashion...... Instead, he threw this task to Yan Xingzhi. Before going to the medicine valley, he wrote this long letter to his family by himself, and it was not written to his grandfather in Kyoto, but Lin Shan himself was the messenger and handed it to Yan's mother in the old house of the Yan family in Qingshi County.

This is the time to go. Lin Shan can help all the help, looking at the sunset from silver to light red on the dirt road, the old and the old gradually moving away, Lin Shan stopped the horse under the seat, and no longer continued to send each other.

I don't know how far the dirt road on the side of the mountain will stretch, but the long mountain range with sparse trees and low trees on the side of the road has come to an end, and I will send it down again. Then they had to drive their horses on the dirt road.

Lin Shan knew that Liao Shi didn't want to see the faces of acquaintances on the way back to Medicine Valley, especially annoying him to follow, obviously having some intention of avoiding him.

Of course he knew what the old pharmacist was worried about.

His gaze, from a certain angle. It's the same as the emperor's eyeliner. For the emperor's invitation, he asked the old pharmacist to treat the second prince for the congenital deficiency, but Liao Shi had refused several times. Maybe one day the emperor will really get angry, and if he wants to come hard, he just needs to find out the location of the medicine valley. Just send a few thousand soldiers in full armor to protect the whole medicine valley directly.

In order to guard against the strong military strength of the northern country, the new monarch of the southern country has already begun to train a few strange troops, Liao Shi believes that this emperor has such an unconventional means of using troops, you might as well take the medicine valley as an experiment first, a good-looking novel:.

No one can confront this kind of national machine, just with those few people in the Medicine Valley, no matter how powerful the highly poisonous powder in their hands is, it is only a single soldier's strength.

Seeing Lin Shan stop his horse and riding beside him, Chen Jiu finally asked, "Just send it here, right?" As the sun sets, it's time for us to go back. ”

Lin Shan didn't speak, just sighed.

"Tired, aren't you?" Chen Jiu couldn't help but say half worried and half reproachful, "You said you wouldn't come to see you off, but in the end you still came, but you didn't bring a single attendant." People are suddenly gone, and after such a long delay outside, those subordinates of yours should panic. ”

Lin Shan didn't seem to hear what Chen Jiu said, and when he spoke, he naturally started another sentence, and said in a somewhat lost tone: "Actually...... If you prepare meals slower in the afternoon, maybe I have a reason to stay for half a day. ”

Chen Jiu suddenly heard him say this, and couldn't help but be stunned.

She tossed hard for more than an hour, as fast as she could, and actually ...... Did you do something wrong?

Although she could understand Lin Shan's desire to stay in Liao Shi for a long time in order to express her sorrow, she was still a little uncomfortable in her heart when she heard Lin Shan say what she had just said.

tried his best to do things for a person, but in the end he had to deny it, whoever encounters such a thing, how can he not have some bad feelings?

Chen Jiu didn't speak for a long time, and the look in his eyes was also gloomy.

Lin Shan kept his head down slightly, not knowing what he was thinking, he didn't know if he had noticed the gloomy expression of the woman beside him, and he didn't say anything to ease, he was also blindly silent.

Such an almost frozen atmosphere makes people feel as if time is stretched and their minds are frozen, which will not be too good for anyone.

I don't know how long it took, Lin Shan finally raised his head, as if he had just recovered his mind from his thoughts that stretched into an endless and distant land, and then he looked again towards the dirt road to the far end, and saw that the two vague but still familiar backs were no longer on the deserted road.

He stared for a moment, then raised his hand to the height of his forehead, and waved it in the direction where the two men were gone, and then he grasped the reins and turned them in the direction of the return to the dwelling.

Maybe this one turned around and was in a hurry, or maybe the big things in my heart finally put aside. Or for some other reason, the moment Lin Shanti turned around, he suddenly felt that it was not only the surrounding environment that had changed. It seems that even the sky and the earth have suddenly come to a replacement......

When Chen Jiu also proudly waved to the end of the dirt road, and then turned the horse's head, she saw Lin Shan's shoulders stiffen for a moment, and then suddenly leaned and fell off the horse!

"Lin ......"

Chen Jiu exclaimed, and before he could think about it, he immediately released the reins in his hand and "fell" to the ground—she threw herself down half of Lin Shan's shoulder at the speed of falling off her horse, to prevent him from rolling down the hill.

This hill is not very high, though. But after all, it can't really be compared to a small mound, even if you fall down a gentle slope, a distance of dozens of zhang, it is difficult to protect yourself from some trauma.

Both of them fell heavily to the ground, although Chen Jiu deliberately fell under the horse's back. But when the body really hit the rugged mountain, although half of the body pressed on Lin Shan's shoulder, slightly slowing down the cushioning strength, but the other side of the body was already numb by the fall. After a while, the severe pain of the contusion reached the brain, provoking the person to faint.

But Chen Jiu never dared to faint at this time, and Lin Shan's sudden fall from his horse. It almost scared her out of the woods.

Struggling to get up half-up, Chen Jiu grabbed one of Lin Shan's sleeves with all his strength and shook it, and called out repeatedly: "Brother Lin...... Saburo ......"

The severe pain caused by the body hitting the ground also made Lin Shan wake up quickly, Chen Jiu saw that he was awake, his heart was slightly calm, and then he struggled with his whole body strength, and other book friends were reading:. Help him to sit up.

"What's wrong with you? What is the sudden discomfort? Chen Jiu stared at Lin Shan's face that was starting to turn a little pale, and asked nervously.

"Drunk......" Lin Shan closed his eyelids hard, and when he opened his eyes again, he was a little more energetic. Although he was suddenly dizzy just now, he didn't see how Chen Jiu pounced to save him when he fell off the horse. But at this moment, he looked at Chen Jiu's messy hair, and he could roughly guess what adventure she had done for herself just now.

He tried to remove the sticky grass stalks from her hair, but he moved his fingers before he suddenly frowned.

Chen Jiu had already noticed that it seemed that half of his arm was injured, and she hurriedly grabbed the hand he was about to lift, but when she lifted the sleeve of her shirt, her movements became extremely gentle.

When the sleeves of Lin Shan's shirt were raised, Chen Jiu did not find any scratches.

She was a little relieved, and then she was about to lift the sleeve of his other shirt, but she was soon stopped by his voice.

"It's just a fall, and there is some pain in my body temporarily, so it's not in the way." Lin Shan grabbed Chen Jiu's hand and clenched it gently, but quickly let go again. After a pause, he continued: "It should be that the medicinal power has passed, but the strength of the wine is still there, so I can only work hard for you to go back and call someone to pick me up." ”

Chen Jiu was so anxious that he didn't even hear Lin Shan's words, so he said urgently: "What about the medicine? You didn't have it with you? ”

"You and the pharmacist told me to take that medicine in moderation, and I obediently left it in my house when I went out just now." After Lin Shan said this slowly, he reluctantly smiled at his lips, and really pretended to be a good child.

Seeing that Lin Shan was still joking, it was obvious that his mind was very sober at this time, and Chen Jiu calmed down a little, but the sadness on her face was still there, and she hesitated and said: "Otherwise, I will carry you back and leave you here alone, how can I rest assured." ”

"What's not to worry about. On a hill like this, even a wild dog is reluctant to nest here, maybe......" Lin Shan breathed a sigh of relief before he continued: "When you come back later, I can still catch a nest of rabbits for you to raise and play." ”

If she listened to Lin Shan's words during casual chatting on weekdays, Chen Jiu would definitely be amused and laughed, but at this time, she was in pain, nervous, and anxious, where could she still show a relaxed mood to face any laughter.

She shook Lin Shan's hand and felt that his fingertips were a little cold, this was originally the norm for his body to be much worse than before, but at this moment, the abnormality in body temperature was caused by the environment, and it was amplified several times in her heart.

"No......" she finally chose to resist the construction of the forest and fir land, no matter how reliable it sounded when he said it.

However, she only had time to say a word when she was interrupted by Lin Shan's words.

"I'm thinner than I used to be, but your body is even thinner, and doing so will crush you." Lin Shan put away his reluctant smile. He had been frowning slightly, but his face became stern again. Although he was still sitting on the ground, not looking at Chen Jiu from a condescending point of view, he had naturally formed an undoubted momentum in him.

After taking a deep breath, when he spoke again. There was already a hint of a somewhat piercing determination in his tone: "My body and mind are already very tired, don't do anything that makes me sad, go ahead." ”

"Good...... I'll be back soon......" Chen Jiu finally stopped arguing or anything, and only chose to obey, she seemed to be able to completely cool down her feelings, but in fact, the gloomy look she had just suppressed appeared from the depths of her eyes, which was what made her instantly feel cold.

Tethering Lin Shan's mount to a nearby tree, Chen Jiu mounted his horse and whipped down the hill.

She didn't know when it started, her eyes were full of tears; She didn't know why she had accumulated so many grievances in her heart.

When he was a child, his family was in decline. when forced to beg; When he was young, in order to buy medicine for his sick father, he sold himself into the Qinglou for ten taels of silver; Three years ago, he came to the north with his dying life, and waited day and night to serve the decoction...... She didn't have the same tears as she did today.

Perhaps it was the horses that did not understand the mood of their owners that the animals were aroused when they rushed down the hill. The rhythm of the four hooves jumping up and down is a little bigger, so that her tears will be shaken out, right?

So what is the grievance in my heart?

What kind of grievances have you not endured?

Chen Jiu clenched her teeth and pursed her lips, trying to at least restrain her crying, but as the galloping horse leaped high, she could already taste the slightly salty taste of the roots of her teeth.

The cool evening breeze slapped on his face, and he rolled up his sleeves and whirred. He poured it into the sleeve again, rubbing the pain in her body. She was suddenly inexplicably relieved, and no longer deliberately held back the tears in her eyes. She whipped the horse's hips, and she rushed into the wind...... If no one hugs you, let yourself jump into the wind!

――――

There may really be such a thing as providence in the world.

If Liao Shi hadn't walked to the end of that dirt road and walked out of the line of sight of Lin Shan; Or rather, if it weren't for the fact that the low mountains didn't stretch far. Stopped Lin Shan's continued footsteps...... Then, when the car with no wheels and only woven bamboo chips appeared in front of him, it was likely that the secret address of Medicine Valley would be difficult to hide anymore.

A carriage without wheels, if nailed out of planks, would look a bit like a coffin.

Thankfully not.

Pieces of bamboo, faintly colored with green bamboo, are tightly woven together. Approaching this bamboo car, you can vaguely smell the aroma of green bamboo. The nodes on the bamboo pieces are staggered, and the rattan is passed through the thin seams between the bamboo pieces, and this weaving technique has a staggered beauty. However, the surface environment inside the bamboo car is still relatively flat, and the overlapping sharp head corners between the bamboo pieces and the bamboo pieces are meticulously woven outside.

However, when Yan Xingzhi, who was hurrying side by side with Liao Shi, saw this wheelless bamboo car suddenly "floating" to the ground, he only felt that his heart was full of surprise.

And when he saw that there were four other car bearers dressed in black, standing like pillars, with very young faces and waist-length silver hair, next to the car, his heart sank uncontrollably. Fortunately, he quickly remembered what Liao Shi had told him just now, and remembered these four ...... It may have been the medicine puppet that calmed his mind a little.

However, although what he saw in front of him was not a ghost, the puppet was first-class, and it was almost like a living dead.

Yan Xingzhi took a closer look at the strange figures and faces of the four cart bearers, and soon noticed their bloodless lips. Their pale cheeks were two pale blue colors, their eyes were wooden, and they could only look at people directly, but their eyes had pupils that seemed to refract a glimmer of light like fireflies. Such faces are lined with their waist-length silver hair...... It's like four geyers that haunt during the day.

The image of the medicine puppet that Liao Shi had just introduced to him was immediately reflected in these four people, although Yan Xingzhi had already learned about this situation first, but when he really saw the appearance of the medicine puppet with his own eyes, he was so shocked that he forgot how to speak for a while.

The medicine puppets didn't give him a chance to speak.

For these medicine puppets, except for Liao Shi and the master in the medicine valley, the others are all aliens.

Facing the outliers. They will become extremely aggressive in an instant.

After just looking at each other, a medicine puppet in the lower right corner of the bamboo slice car seemed to have discovered its prey like a falcon, and its originally slightly dull eyes suddenly became sharp. At the same time, his gray hair flew away without wind. Dancing wildly in front of his face, covering his face, his sleeves, which were longer than the tips of his fingers, also fluttered up with his body like a leaf, and instantly swept in front of Yan Xingzhi, a beautiful novel:.

Yan Xingzhi suddenly felt that the white shadow in front of him was sweeping around, as if it was the result of the medicine puppet's face coming up and the silver hair coming in a wind. For just one moment, he felt as if the air in his lungs had been squeezed out of his chest in an instant, and a strong feeling of suffocation hit his brain, and his heart and lungs stopped beating together, and he lost consciousness.

"Help!"

looked at Yan Xingzhi who staggered to the ground. Liao Shi shouted loudly at the medicine puppet who had just flicked his black sleeve and spilled a piece of white powder.

The medicine puppet immediately stretched out another sleeve and stiffened Yan Xingzhi's support.

But for Yan Xingzhi, who had lost his consciousness, the medicine puppet was just like a tree that would not take the initiative to give any subtle movements, so he just leaned slightly against the canopy of this "tree", and his body was like a piece of clothing that had been blown off by the wind. Keep sliding down to the ground.

"Hug!"

Liao Shi shouted another word at the medicine puppet.

The medicine puppet stretched out another hand, and the two sides of the arm, which had been covered in long black sleeves and did not even show half of their fingers, formed a half-arc on the left and right, and formed a circle together. The medicine puppet used this still stiff movement to tie Yan Xingzhi's shoulders in the middle, temporarily supporting him from continuing to wither to the ground.

Liao Shi couldn't help but sigh when he saw this. Where is this support, where is the hug? This is similar to tying people with their arms, although Yan Xingzhi did not lie down on the cold ground at this time, if he was still conscious. It doesn't feel very comfortable.

Liao Shi looked at the medicine puppet who was also staring at him blankly, and couldn't help but be annoyed and said, "Remember, when you see this person, you can lighten it up for me!" If he's missing a hair, I'll stop you for three days!" ”

The medicine puppet with Yan Xingzhi in its arms still motionless, staring at Liao Shi with a slightly dull gaze as usual. More indifferent than the possibility that they could not discern such long words, they were more like dead creatures who had left their souls.

If these medicine puppets could still think, they would definitely be so frightened that they knelt down and pleaded guilty after hearing Liao Shi say this. Puppeteers, who have become accustomed to being tempered by drugs, have to take medicinal baths and take a certain dose of medicinal food every day. Otherwise, they will lose some kind of balance against ordinary people's physique, and the internal circulation will be counter-inflicted and harmed, which is very painful.

However, the four of them were able to be released from the Medicine Valley by the medicine doctor and come to such a far place to pick up Liao Shi back, obviously they were already very successful puppeteers. To their near-demon masters, they are obedient and loyal, but to ordinary people, they are puppets, living ghosts with heartbeats and unconscious.

Liao Shi sighed.

Many years ago, he went back to Medicine Valley to dissuade his junior brother from stopping refining medicine puppets, but the puppets who had already been refined couldn't change anything, so they could only stay in Medicine Valley. Since then, Liao Shi and his junior brother agreed to return to the Medicine Valley once a year, and they would be sent off by these puppets all the way, which has been more than 20 years.

His junior brother who was close to the demon didn't know what to think, and he actually used medicine to control the living into this state, saying that they were Gu things, but it was not true, because Gu things couldn't be so perfect.

More than 20 years ago, these puppets were all teenagers in their early tens, and after being washed by the demon's junior brother with various drugs, they became such green-blooded and white-haired weirdos. After more than 20 years of change, the faces of these puppeteers still roughly remain the appearance of young people.

Liao Shi saw the subtle changes of these puppet people with his own eyes, although he was surprised, but he barely got along for more than 20 years, and slowly got used to it.

But in recent years, there have been some special cases on his side, first through Yan Xingzhi's stalking efforts, he couldn't get out, and then Lin Shan's side had an accident, he followed him to the north, and he had to keep Lin Shan's whereabouts secret...... has been involved in all kinds of trivial matters, and I haven't been back for more than four years.

I don't know if the junior brother who is close to the demon in Medicine Valley is anxious and crazy, and what new tricks he has come up with-
