Early the next morning, we set out again, and in order to avoid possible pursuit, we abandoned the official road and chose to walk on the small road.

As I walked, I thought: How do you feel like the four of us are going to the west to learn scriptures? Rui Wei is so sharp, good at kung fu, and swings a stick all day long, she is like Sun Wukong; Wang Shaoting is a little white face, a little unsmiling, and his martial arts seem to be not very good, more like Tang Seng; Father Yan is calm and reliable, and he is more obedient to commands, he can be regarded as a sand monk, then I am ......

No, in fact, we don't feel like we're going to the west to learn the scriptures at all, we are also going south, huh!

During this period, these three people were very confused about my name, but after many times of my mud, they finally agreed on one thing, that is, I am both Tao Yong and Tao Zhihuan, no matter what the reason is, anyway, the blood furnace is in my hands, and I am the heir of the Tao family.

Father Yan also has one thing that I think is incredible, that is, about the murder of my family, why I completely accepted Wang Shaoting's statement, and I didn't seem to have the slightest doubt. In fact, I have no doubts, and I do not doubt them, although the murder of my relatives also makes me deeply regretful, but the most important thing now is not to avenge my relatives, but to uncover the mystery hidden behind the Blood Rock Furnace, only then can this matter be completely ended, so that the Tao family in every world will no longer continue to be tortured.

But there is another thing that makes me wonder why in this world, there is only one thing left in the house, the blood furnace, and the silk book I saw in that world did not appear, and no one mentioned it.

When I stopped to rest and eat at noon that day, Rui Wei looked at our combination and said to me secretly: "I said, there is something I think is a little strange. ”

"What's the matter?"

She pointed to the spot in my arms and said, "Didn't you draw three pictures at that time?" One is me, one is the nerd, and one is a woman, but why did it change to an old man? ”

It seems that she knew that I had kept those three paintings close to me since then. I took the three pictures out of my bosom and flipped to the third, and I couldn't help but be stunned.

Originally, when I came to this era, the first thing I thought of was to find people who had some cause for this matter. It seems that fate has arranged for me to find the first two, but where is the third?

Wang Shaoting, who was on the side, noticed my action, and also came over to take a look, and when he saw Meng Yiling's portrait, he let out a "huh" and muttered in his mouth: "This person seems to have been seen somewhere." ”

My heart moved, when Rui Wei saw this painting, it seemed to be familiar, but when I asked her more later, she only said that it was a feeling, and she couldn't talk about it specifically.

"Think about it, where have you seen it?" I said eagerly to Wang Shaoting.

At this time, Father Yan, who was looking for firewood, came back, and saw the three of us looking at a piece of paper head to head, and also added firewood to the fire, and came over curiously and asked, "What are you looking at?" ”

Rui Wei snatched the painting from my hand, and while showing it to my father, he said, "Look, he said that this is the noble person who was pointed out to him by the master in his dream!" ”

Daddy Yan said, "Oh? And these kinds of wonders, let me take a look! When he took the painting and looked at it, he immediately froze on the spot, his eyes widened as if he had seen something scary, and his hand holding the painting began to tremble slightly.

It was quite unusual for Daddy Yan, who had always been calm, to have such a reaction, so I hurriedly asked, "Daddy, do you know him?" ”

Dad was silent for a long time, sighed and said, "I don't have to hide it from you now, this person is what the Digging Group has been looking for...... Witch. ”

"Witch?" I was very surprised by this title.

Rui Wei is a scientific girl in that world, and here she is a detective-like female celestial master, basically matching; Wang Shaoting is a college student studying civil engineering in that world, although he is a bandit here, but he can blast at all, and it can be regarded as a boundary, I have always guessed that Meng Yiling, the great doctor in that world, should be a doctor here, if he becomes a "witch", this style will change too much!

Father Yan continued: "I don't know the details of this very well, I only saw the portrait of this person when the Digging Regiment's pursuit order was issued, and the reason given at that time was that this woman was needed to serve the Digging Regiment. But when the people below passed it privately, they all said that this woman was a witch, gifted, and able to control people's life and death. It's a pity that after several years of investigation, there is no trace of this person's whereabouts, as if he has escaped from heaven and earth, which is even more mysterious. ”

I see. In my opinion, if you say that you can control the life and death of people, you are only fascinated by her beauty and wisdom!

But at least it shows that she exists in this plane, and maybe I can see her again in my lifetime, which makes me look forward to it!

"By the way," I thought of something else, and turned to Rui Wei and said, "I used to see that you seemed to have scruples about studying medicine, what is going on?" ”

As soon as Rui Wei heard this, he immediately subconsciously looked a little nervous, but in such an environment, there seemed to be nothing that could not be said. So he said vaguely: "It's not that I have scruples in my heart, it's that the world now has scruples about it." After that, he also glanced at Daddy Yan, and Daddy nodded a little helplessly, expressing his understanding of her.

"How?"

Rui Wei said: "There was a period when studying medicine was very popular, and practicing medicine was also a very proud thing, but I don't know when it began, everyone began to reject medicine, and the imperial court has always emphasized that medicine is just like divination and physiognomy, which belongs to the small skills of carving insects, and it is not allowed to be elegant, and people who practice medicine are not given due respect, so there are fewer and fewer people who study medicine."

In recent years, it is not only disrespectful, but also that some people have begun to spread the word that people who study medicine use the name of practicing medicine to practice witchcraft, deceive the people, and confront the imperial court. ”

When I heard this, I turned to my father and asked, "I seem to have heard you say that you know all the doctors within a radius of 100 miles, doesn't that mean that there are still people practicing medicine?" ”

He nodded and said, "Well, yes, I have secretly investigated this matter, although it is unknown what happened to the doctors who were arrested and killed, but these surviving people have a common characteristic. ”

"What characteristics?" I was very curious, I didn't expect Daddy Yan to also play detective.

He glanced at me and said, "It's just not the same type as you." ”

"Uh...... However, I'm not a doctor...... "I don't know why."

The three of them looked at each other in unison, and then at me in unison, with a suspicious look.

I immediately realized that it was not a good thing to be a fool of myself, so I had to confess my guilt and say, "Well, I know some medicine." ”

"That's right, that's it!" Daddy Yan suddenly pointed at me and shouted.

Rui Wei also looked at me with a very worried gaze.

"This ...... Is there something wrong? "I'm confused.

Father Yan said firmly: "It's not right here. Most of the doctors who survived made a living from acupuncture, moxibustion, massage and trauma treatment, even if someone prescribes it, it is generally prescribed for symptoms, such as honeysuckle and forsythia if you have a sore throat, and Jiao Sanxian if you have a bad appetite. ”

"However, my prescription is based on the internal scriptures?" As soon as I spoke, the three people on the other side nodded with expressions like "look", as if I was a doctor.

I waved my hand: "In short, you mean that the doctor who uses the internal scripture to dialectically prescribe prescriptions is in danger of his life?" ”

Father Yan said with certainty: "Yes, I can only come to such a conclusion. ”

"But, but...... What does this have to do with the Bloodrock Furnace? And how did we get to the point? I asked suddenly.

Rui Wei looked like he was about to faint at that time, grabbed the painting in his father's hand and shook it in front of my eyes and said, "This, this!" ”

Oh, by the way, it's about this third portrait.

At this moment, Wang Shaoting, who had been silent on the side, suddenly shouted: "Ah, I remembered!" ”

We were all startled and looked at him together.

He waved his hand excitedly and said, "I once saw a portrait of this man in the palace!" It was when I was very young, and once begged my father to take me into the palace to see me, but he had no choice but to hide me in the car carrying miscellaneous goods. I stopped for some reason, and I looked out of the car and there was no one outside.

I climbed out of the car and tried to run to my father, who had told me not to be seen, so I would hide when I saw someone coming. But the palace was so big that I got lost after running for a while, and the sky began to darken, and I felt that I was getting more and more remote, and I unconsciously came to a strange gate.

It's strange because the door is carved with a lot of protruding human shapes, which look like ...... Just like many babies, but the shape is a little distorted, it makes people feel numb to look at it, the middle of the door is carved into a circle, half black, half white, inlaid with each other, there is a white dot on the black part, there is a black dot on the white part, staring at it, the black and white halves seem to start turning, making people a little dizzy.

I don't know why, but even though I was only four or five years old at the time, I didn't feel scared when I saw it, but I was curious to reach out and touch it. Before it could be touched, the door opened on its own. Inside is a small hall, with an offering table and a futon, which looks like a place of worship, and there is a candle on the offering table, and a painting on the wall in the middle of it shows a very beautiful woman in it! ”

When Wang Shaoting said this, his eyes flashed, as if he could still clearly recall the shock of that moment until now.

"I was just about to go inside, when suddenly someone picked me up and saw that it was my father! I don't know how he found me, but his panic was something I've never seen before. When he took me away, I looked back and saw that it was a tower, and I could see it standing on that little hill far away......"

He came to his senses and said firmly: "The person in your portrait and the one I saw back then should be a person!" ”
