Chapter VII: Imprisonment

Looking at the old man's distant back, Chu Xiaofeng wiped the sweat on his forehead with his sleeve, and today he felt a little weak by applying two consecutive needles to treat his illness. His set of acupuncture is extraordinary, called "Heavenly Acupuncture Pulse", which was created by Sun Simiao, the "King of Medicine" of the previous dynasty, and needs to use internal force to send needles to dredge the patient's Bailuo with his own qi to achieve the effect of curing the disease. Because of his weak constitution since he was a child, Chu Xiaofeng was not taught martial arts and the method of internal breathing, but only learned the tricks of acupuncture and moxibustion with an imperial physician for a few years.

"Hey, it seems that you still need to continue to cultivate the breath breath to enhance your internal strength, otherwise, you can only heal up to five people a day." Putting away the copper coin in his hand, Chu Xiaofeng was a little depressed, he could only treat diseases with acupuncture, if he could only heal five people a day, wouldn't it be a big problem, at this moment he seemed to see a lot of silver flowing in front of him, but he couldn't catch it.

On the streets, the shadows of people are gradually thinning, the sun is setting in the west, and the sunset is picturesque. Chu Xiaofeng saw that it was already dusk, so he turned around and packed up the banners and prepared to come back tomorrow. Although he only treated two patients today, he gained a lot, and he earned fifty taels of silver at once, which made him feel quite happy. Now that I have earned silver taels by my own ability, I feel a great sense of accomplishment.

"Whew", Chu Xiaofeng intuitively felt that a strong wind was blowing behind him, and the hat was taken off, he frowned, turned around, and saw that the ruffian from last time was looking at him proudly, and there were two catchers standing beside him, and the older catcher on the left was holding his hat in his hand, with a sinister face.

"What do you want to do!" Chu Xiaofeng said coldly, he knew that this matter would be difficult to end well.

"I said I couldn't find you ugly ghost after looking for a day, so I was hiding here!" Wang Ergou smiled very cruelly, in order to invite Huang Gai and Liu Yi to catch and shoot quickly, but it cost three hundred taels of silver. Since seeing Chu Xiaofeng's strength beyond ordinary people, Wang Ergou's whole heart is about to break, and he is worried about Chu Xiaofeng's revenge all day long, so he will not hesitate to put Chu Xiaofeng in prison, otherwise he will sleep with his eyes open.

He was originally a narrow-minded person, cruel in nature, and he did everything too desperately, and over time he always thought that others would be like this, so he thought crankily, in fact, Chu Xiaofeng didn't take the events of that day to heart at all.

"What? Find a helper! Chu Xiaofeng saw that the three of them had an arrogant attitude, and seemed to have settled on themselves, and he was very unhappy in his heart. He has always been the only one who is arrogant to others, and now that the tiger has fallen to Pingyang, any kind of dog dares to bully him.

"Boy, who are you?" Huang Gai is not as knowledgeable as Wang Ergou, and there are generally no ordinary people who are not afraid of officials, but although the person in front of him is pockmarked and ugly, his expression is calm and fearless, and there is an innate power in his demeanor, which is not something that ordinary people can have.

Although Huang Zhukuai has a vicious eye and knows a lot of people, this time he never dreamed that the person in front of him was His Royal Highness the Third Prince of the Great Zhou Dynasty, not to mention facing two small catchers, even if he was a member of the first rank in the court, he could only bow down in front of him.

"A cloth coat, a doctor who treats people." Chu Xiaofeng smiled lightly, he really wanted to see what public power and private use were.

"A doctor who treats people? I think you look like a spy of the Tu Kingdom! Liu Yi looked like he was in his early twenties, and he was stunned, just thinking about receiving benefits and doing things for others quickly, seeing Chu Xiaofeng's indifferent expression, he was already angry in his heart, and he couldn't help shouting, playing official power.

"Spies? This place is tens of thousands of miles away from the Tulu country, how did this spy pass through many checkpoints and come to this Qinghe town? Or are you dissatisfied with the border guards of the Great Zhou Dynasty! Chu Xiaofeng said disdainfully.

"You!" Liu Yiqi pulled out the saber with a "poof", and pointed at Chu Xiaofeng and couldn't say a word, he didn't expect the people in front of him to be so sharp-toothed.

"Liu Yi, put away your knife!" Seeing this, Huang Gai hurriedly reprimanded, people in the government should not show their knives easily, otherwise they will be severely punished.

"Uncle Huang, I" Liu Yixin reluctantly put away his saber and glared at Chu Xiaofeng viciously.

"Then I said the two team leaders, why haven't you arrested this ugly ghost in prison?" Wang Ergou on the side saw that there was a stalemate between the two sides, and carefully reminded him that his three hundred taels of silver could not be a hundred flowers.

"Huh? It turns out that the two of you want to arrest me and put me in prison, I've been everywhere, but I've never been to the cell, so let's go. Chu Xiaofeng put away the banner, tidied up his stall, and said lightly.

"Who the hell is Your Excellency? I guess today's incident may be a misunderstanding? "Being said by Chu Xiaofeng, Huang Gai is even more uncertain, that invisible coercion is not what ordinary people have, if he and others provoke big shots, the consequences

"Misunderstanding? There is nothing to misunderstand, a few days ago I was begging on the street and begged for ten taels of silver, but I was favored by this benevolent brother, but I didn't expect the fighting skills of the hooligans here to be so weak, but I was taught a lesson. Chu Xiaofeng laughed.

"Ugly ghost! You you nonsense! Wang Ergou blushed and had a thick neck when he heard this, and when he thought of his ugliness that day, he couldn't help but shout angrily.

"Well, who do you say is the ugly ghost!" Chu Xiaofeng was furious, from the hooligan just now, he was an ugly ghost, is he ugly? Isn't it just pockmarked with a face?

"Ahh Wang Ergou suddenly heard Chu Xiaofeng's roar, which frightened him so much that he took a few steps back, and sat on the ground unsteadily, looking at the ugly monster in front of him in horror.

Seeing this, Huang Gai "sighed" in his heart, and secretly said that this person is not simple, this proud momentum and calm mind are definitely beyond the reach of people, who is he?

"! What are you arrogant of a pariah! Liu Yi saw that Chu Xiaofeng roared Wang Ergou's three souls out of his body, and he didn't pay any attention to the arrest of these two state capitals, and said angrily.

"As the saying goes, the government oppresses the people, and I only think it is the root cause of the defeat of the previous dynasty, but I didn't expect that there was such a tumor in my Great Zhou!" A cold light flashed in Chu Xiaofeng's eyes, and he forced Liu Yi to look.

"What do you want to do!" A chill behind Liu Yi's intuition rose rapidly, and his legs and feet trembled a little.

"Lead the way!" Chu Xiaofeng glanced at Huang Gai, who was frowning and thinking, and said mockingly.

"This way, please." Huang Gai frowned deeply, glanced at Wang Ergou who was still sitting on the ground, and sighed in his heart, if it weren't for the fact that the old lady in the family urgently needed silver taels to seek poison for treatment, how could he help him to do evil, or not, it was a blessing or a curse, and a disaster could not be avoided. Think about it. Fortunately, he took the lead in the direction of the cell.

The prison in Qinghe Town was only two alleys away from the state capital, so that the prisoners could be arraigned. The cell is located in the innermost part of a deep alley, surrounded by high stone walls and iron locks, and guarded by nearly 100 soldiers.

"Why did Huang Bantou come in person?" Seeing Huang Gai walking towards this side, the guard at the prison door asked with a smile. Huang Gai is a kind person, the oldest in seniority, and has a very high prestige among the government officials.

"Well, send someone in." After thinking about it all the way, Huang Gai always felt panicked, and heard the guard at the prison door speak perfunctorily.

"What kind of big man is worthy of our Huang Bantou personally sending in, it can't be the mountain bandit leader of that mountain who was caught, right?" The guard at the cell door didn't notice Huang Gai's strange appearance and quipped.

"What are you kid rambling, open the door!" Huang Gai was a little impatient, he was already in an irritable mood, and he couldn't help blurting out.

"Uh-huh!" The guard of the cell door was stunned, but he didn't expect the always kind Huang Bantou to suddenly get angry, and hurriedly answered and opened the cell door.

In the gloomy cell, there was a pungent fishy smell immediately, Chu Xiaofeng couldn't help frowning, and walked inside for a long time before he got used to the dim light, only to see that there were a different number of prisoners in the cells on both sides, some of them had dull eyes, some had a fierce light, and some were cold-eyed.

"Uncle Huang, why are we still moving forward?" Seeing Huang Gai walking through the cells and not stopping, Liu Yi couldn't help but ask.

"Go to the innermost cell!" Huang Gaitou said coldly without replying.

"Ahh Doesn't that Mr. Li like to be quiet? Liu Yi was obviously shocked by these words, and said in a low voice.

"Shut the fuck up! Let you go, you just follow! Huang Gai turned around and said coldly, scolding in his heart: If it weren't for you, the king of eight lambs, who saw the idea of getting rich, why would Lao Tzu go to this troubled water! This person must have a great background, and I hope that Mr. Li can help us escape.

"Get in!" Huang Gai glanced at Chu Xiaofeng, who was following behind him, and pointed to the unlocked cell in the innermost part and whispered.

"This cell is weird, why is it not locked?" Chu Xiaofeng asked suspiciously.

"You'll know when you go in." If others asked like this, Huang Gai would have scolded his mother a long time ago, but the origin of the person in front of him was unknown, and he couldn't figure out the details, Huang Gai could only resist the urge to kill and said in a low voice.

"I didn't expect that I would also become a prisoner one day." Chu Xiaofeng smiled lightly and walked in.

"You are here to watch, follow Mr. Li's orders at any time, and notify me immediately if there is anything." Seeing Chu Xiaofeng walk into the cell, Huang Gai wiped the fine beads of sweat on his forehead and whispered to Liu Yi.

"Uncle Huang, you" Liu Yi was a little inexplicable, what happened to Uncle Huang today? Why is it so nervous?

"Shut up! Do as I say! Before Liu Yi could finish speaking, Huang Gai said coldly, glared at him viciously, and turned to leave.

As soon as he walked into the cell, Chu Xiaofeng was so shocked that his jaw was about to dislocate, which is a cell, it is clearly a luxury upper room. The original fishy smell was replaced by a sandalwood incense, the interior decoration of the house was elegant and chic, all the bronze tables and chairs on the walls and floors, the surrounding walls were full of calligraphy and paintings, a black yaoqin hung obliquely at the head of the bed, a long sword stood at the end of the bed, and on the wooden table in front of him, the fragrance of tea was lingering, and there was a faint residual temperature.

"I don't know what to call Mr.?" Chu Xiaofeng respectfully asked in a low voice to the man in front of the window who was looking into the distance. The man was dressed in a gray coarse linen garment, with his hair scattered over his shoulders, and he stood barefoot on the floor, his hands behind his back, thoughtfully.

"Well, you're the true dragon emperor!" When the man heard Chu Xiaofeng's question, he sighed, turned around slowly, his face changed instantly, and he exclaimed.
