The caravan traveled for less than an hour, and Cheng Jiyuan, who had just abandoned the crowd and fled, rushed back to the caravan in embarrassment, but when they went out, there were four merchants, but when they came back, only Cheng Hanhu and three families remained.

Zhao Tianci and his entourage are nowhere to be found, presumably the fierce and auspicious, these three have lost a lot of manpower, and only half of the goods are left, all of them follow the caravan in frustration, and they are no longer in high spirits when they set off.

Li Luo and a few people saw Cheng Jiyuan and said hello, Cheng Jiyuan's expression darkened, he didn't respond, pretended not to see, and bowed his head and hurried.

The other merchants in the caravan couldn't help but speak coldly, and several people knew that they were at a loss, and no one dared to refute it.

In the evening, the caravan stopped and set up camp to rest. Li Luo lit a bonfire with Chajing, grilled some meat to eat, Hu Chajing was overjoyed, greeted Ni Qing and Zhu Zhi, and rushed to take the order. Li Luo and Shen smiled at Dongguan Er, and it was hopeless not to attract attention, so Li Luo simply ignored it.

After eating, Hu Chajing was full of wine and food, and was chatting with Ni Qing and Zhu Zhitian from time to time, Chu Ying'er added some dry branches to the fire from time to time, and was alone in a daze, Li Luo read by the firelight, Shen Xiangdong saw this and asked, "Changqing, what are you looking at?" ”

Li Luo put down the book and said with a smile: "A few days ago, an old man gave me a medical book, and I had nothing to do to pass the time. ”

"Oh, what medical book?" Shen Xiangdong asked with interest.

Li Luo closed the medical book and handed it to Shen Xiangdong and said, "Ten thousand miles of idle clouds." ”

"Huh?" Shen Xiangdong took the medical book and said strangely: "What a strange name, the old man has never heard of a medical book with this name." Looking down, he gasped and said, "Old man of Guigu!" ”

Hu Chajing on the side didn't know why, and asked, "Uncle, who is the old man of Guigu?" ”

Shen Xiangdong frowned, hurriedly opened the medical book, looked at it a few times, closed the medical book again, handed it back to Li Luo with both hands, and said: "Changqing, this is a strange book, put it away carefully, don't fall into the eyes of others." Li Luo smiled slightly and took the medical book.

Only then did Shen Xiangdong say to Hu Chajing: "This old man in the Ghost Valley is a genius, in addition to his medical skills, his ability to use poison is also unique in the world. When it comes to martial arts, no one in the rivers and lakes has always been willing to admit that he is second, but when it comes to medical skills, if this old man in the Ghost Valley says that he is second, then no one dares to say that he is the first. ”

"So powerful?" Hu Chajing glanced at the medical book in Li Luo's hand in disbelief.

Zhu Zhi smiled and said: "Prince, you are lonely and unheard, the name of this old man in the Ghost Valley is known to everyone in Dagan, and it is rumored that there are life and death, and the magic power of flesh and bones is very good." It's just that he is withdrawn and difficult to contact, and the princes don't look at each other, and the head of the Wang family has been turned away from the door when he went to visit him before. After speaking, he glanced at Li Luo with admiration.

Li Luo was slightly stunned, flicked the medical book, and did not speak. Hu Chajing said angrily: "I haven't heard anyone talk about it today, is it true that I am a frog at the bottom of the well, just like the merchant said." He shook his head in annoyance.

Shen Xiangdong laughed and said: "Wu Jing, you can't say that, you are good at martial arts, it is reasonable that these strange people in the mountains and fields have not heard of it, He Yitian we met today, and the wild eagle of the head of the horse thief, the old man has never heard of it, the old man is so old for you, if you are a frog at the bottom of the well, then what is the old man?" ”

Hu Chajing also smiled, and then left it behind. Shen Xiangdong turned to Li Luo and said, "Changqing, I don't know if there is a chance to introduce you, the old man wants to pay a visit to this old man in the Ghost Valley." ”

Li Luo raised his head and glanced at Chu Ying'er, Chu Ying'er was also looking at Li Luo, Li Luo said abruptly: "I'm afraid there is no such opportunity, the ghost old man has already gone immortal." ”

"Huh!?" Shen Xiangdongji sighed regretfully: "Doctors don't treat themselves, and the old man has missed another master in the world." ”

Chu Ying'er said coldly: "The old man of the Ghost Valley did not die of disease. ”

"Oh, why is that?" Shen Xiangdong asked in a surprised voice.

Chu Ying'er glanced at Li Luo, Li Luo slowly closed his eyes, Chu Ying'er paused slightly, Shen Xiangdong saw this and knew that there was a reason for the incident, so he stopped asking, and was about to divert the topic, when he heard Chu Ying'er say: "The old man of Guigu died in Zhuocheng. After speaking, he closed his mouth and said no more.

Shen Xiangdong saw that Li Luo and Chu Ying'er were abnormal, and knew that the death of the old man in Guigu was inseparable from the Dagan royal family, so he didn't ask any more. After being quiet for a while, Hu Chajing no longer talked and laughed with Ni Qing and Zhu Zhi, and leaned on the fire in a daze.

Li Luo slowly opened his eyes again, looked at the medical book in his hand, and said softly: "The ghost elder not only died in Zhuocheng, but also died in Dagan Imperial City. ”

After a pause, he continued: "Emperor Wanlong heard that the ghost old man had excellent medical skills, so he sent someone to invite the ghost old man to come to Zhuocheng and wanted to confer the post of chief physician. It's just that the ghost old man has a different personality from ordinary people, and he didn't want to come, but he had no choice but to agree. Emperor Bandung asked him to develop an elixir that could prolong life and keep his youth forever. This move was originally against the heavens, but it was not what the ghost old man wanted, coupled with the jealousy of the ghost elder, some villains often made obstructions, designed to frame the ghost elder, and was almost beheaded by Emperor Wanlong in anger. In the end, although he did not ask for beheading, he was also placed under house arrest in the royal family, depressed, and unresolved, and finally died of depression. In the palace, I have seen the ghost old man several times, cheeky by the ghost old to forget the old friend, the ghost old before the death of the lifelong learning of a book, gifted me, said that there is nothing else to ask for, but I hope to be like this thousands of miles of idle clouds, free and easy, is the origin of this medical book. Calculating the time, it should be the second year of my uncle's stay in Zhuocheng. ”

Shen Xiangdong understood, and sighed regretfully, but seeing that Li Luo seemed unwilling to say more, he didn't ask again. At this time, Chu Ying'er continued: "It was the nine guards in the palace who brought the old man of the Ghost Valley to Zhuocheng that day. ”

At this moment, when everyone saw Cheng Jiyuan coming over, they all stopped talking. When Cheng Jiyuan walked in, Shen Xiangdong got up and said with a smile: "Why did Cheng Dangjia come here so late, please take a seat." ”

Cheng Jiyuan's face was slightly red, and he said abruptly: "Ji Yuan came to ask for guilt, and I hope you don't blame." ”

"Where Cheng Dangjia said, sit down and say."

Cheng Jiyuan sat down next to Shen Xiangdong and said embarrassedly: "What Ji Yuan did today, I am afraid that everyone will laugh at it, but Ji Yuan didn't come to make amends, and Ji Yuan is really uneasy." ”

Li Luo smiled slightly and said: "Cheng Dangjia is serious, the horse thief came to rob, and it was not Cheng Dangjia's whereabouts leaked, disaster is coming, self-preservation is human nature, Cheng Dangjia should not take it to heart." ”

Cheng Jiyuan hurriedly said: "The era is its duty, and it has nothing to do with this horse thief. ”

Shen Xiangdong laughed and said: "We have never suspected that Cheng Dangjia and horse thieves have reported the news, and Cheng Dangjia does not need to disturb himself." ”

Cheng Jiyuan sighed and said: "Later, I heard others say that the horse thieves came to rob today, and several people came forward, chivalrous and courageous, they are great heroes, true heroes, and Ji Yuan is even more ashamed of himself." ”

Shen Xiangdong chuckled and said, "What Cheng Dangjia heard shouldn't be like this." ”

Cheng Jiyuan was stunned for a moment, and then said unfairly: "These businessmen are all people who forget their righteousness for profit, and a few of them risk their lives to defend them, but they don't appreciate it, and they speak badly, and the era is really worthless for a few."

Along the way, thanks to our support, we were able to get here, and after a while, we turned our faces and didn't recognize people, and we were really unkind. ”

Hu Chajing snorted coldly, Cheng Jiyuan shrank his neck and closed his mouth.

None of them answered, Cheng Jiyuan was quite unnatural, he couldn't sit still, as if he had made a great determination, and said in a low voice: "Ji Yuan heard that the queen bee looked at a few people differently, although it was presumptuous, but there were a few words, Ji Yuan did not vomit or be unhappy, and asked Wu Lao to forgive me." ”

"Oh, Cheng Dangjia has something to say, please speak."

Cheng Jiyuan looked around, for fear that someone would eavesdrop, Hu Chajing frowned impatiently, Cheng Jiyuan hurriedly lowered his voice again: "This queen bee is not an idle person in the Western Regions, Ji Yuan heard that she has secretly colluded with many horse thieves to help horse thieves take care of the looted property, and she is the largest stolen goods merchant in the Western Regions." Today's events may not be a trap set by the queen bee, who deliberately sold personal favors to us. ”
