Even if that person can control his breath so weakly, it can be seen that his internal strength must be very deep. Lu Xiao gently pulled Lachen Nian and signaled to her that there was someone hidden inside. Chen Nian bowed slightly, but his mouth was still begging for Chaoyangzi, completely like a daughter seeking medical treatment for her seriously ill mother.

Chaoyangzi used to think that the girl in front of him had a sharp tongue and a smooth and hateful tongue, but at this moment, he only felt that she was clever and likable. He refused a few words with great impatience on his face, and finally made a look that he couldn't stand Chen Nian's begging, and said: "Okay, I'll prescribe a prescription for you, you grab the medicine and go back to your old lady to eat, as for whether she can be good, then leave it to fate," After speaking, he dipped his pen in ink and wrote two pieces of paper and handed them to Chen Nian: "That, here you go,"

Chen Nian stepped forward and took the paper with great gratitude, only glanced at it and saw that the one below was written with other contents, so he put it in his sleeve without a trace, looked back at the counter but there was no one, and asked Chaoyangzi again: "Dao Chief, where is the little brother who grabbed the medicine?"

"Ah," Chaoyangzi was stunned for a moment, and then replied, "I went home to visit my relatives." ”

Chen Nian hesitated, and then asked, "What about this medicine,"

Chaoyangzi didn't want her to do such a full set of acts, so he couldn't help glaring at her hatefully, got up and went to the counter and grabbed two packets of medicine for her and threw them to her, and drove them away: "Hurry up, hurry up,"

Chen Nian went out with Lu Xiao at this time, and the two of them didn't dare to speak when they got out of the shop, so they went straight to the outside of the town, and when they were some distance away from the medicine shop, Chen Nian dared to ask Lu Xiao in a low voice: "Can someone follow the two of us,"

Lu Xiao shook his head and said, "No, that person didn't come out." ”

Chen Nian saw that there was no one left and right, so he took out the paper that had been hidden in his sleeve before, opened it and looked closely, and saw two lines of words scribbled on it: At the beginning of the child, in the east wing of the backyard of the pharmacy, the demon Jing Yuxuan was settled, and he could take advantage of the void to enter.

When Chen Nian saw the name of the devil, he was surprised and said "Huh", and said strangely: "How did Chaoyangzi provoke him?"

Lu Xiao didn't know much about the things in the Central Plains Martial Arts, so he poked his head over and asked, "Who is Jing Yuxuan?"

Chen Nian explained to him: "I have only heard of this person's name, it is said that this person's martial arts are unfathomable, people are both righteous and evil, and his temperament is extremely eccentric, if he looks at you pleasing to the eye, you are no matter how insidious and cunning he is, and he can help you kill people with a knife, but if he looks at you unpleasantly, you will not provoke him at all, and he may also destroy you." ”

Lu Xiao frowned unconsciously, was silent for a while, and asked Chen Nian: "Then what should I do, save it or not,"

Chen Nian is also a contradiction for a while, if it is against Jing Yuxuan, even Lu Xiao may not be his opponent, but if he can find Chaoyangzi to treat Yang Yi and them, with his medical skills, the lives of those people in the village can be saved. She pondered for a moment and said, "Although Chaoyangzi has a bad temper, he is not a bad person, and we have to save him." Besides, Chaoyangzi has fought with you, and he probably knows the depth of your martial arts, since he asked us to go over at that time, I think I am sure that I can control that demon. ”

The two of them said a few more words, and then returned to the hillside where they had broken up with Xiao Monkey before, Chen Nian made a loud whistle, and after waiting for a while, he didn't see Xiao Monkey coming from his hiding place, and he was a little worried: "Isn't something wrong,"

The two of them followed the horse's hoof prints on the ground all the way, straight into a narrow ditch on the side of the hillside, and walked a short distance forward, then they heard the sound of horses' hooves, and after a while, a man and a horse appeared at the bend of the ravine, which was the monkey they were looking for. Xiao Monkey saw the two of them from a distance, and hurriedly shouted: "I found Shi Dazhuang and them, just in front." ”

Shi Dazhuang was one of the two people who were sent to the town by Wen Daya to buy food yesterday. Chen Nian saw that the two people had not returned, and last night there were suddenly many officers and soldiers in the village, so he guessed that the two people might have been poisoned by the officers and soldiers. Wen Daya and they still wanted to go out to find it, but they didn't want to end up here.

It turned out that the name of this Xiao monkey was not only called Monkey, but also his temperament was as indefinite as that monkey, he was waiting for Chen Nian and Lu Xiao on that slope, and he walked around in a moment, but he accidentally saw something in the ravine under the mountain, so he rode down on horseback, but he found the corpses of Shi Dazhuang and another person.

"I think it was caught by those officers and soldiers, and after being killed, it was thrown into this ditch, and it was dragged away by wild wolves at night, and the corpses and two horses were gnawed clean, leaving only some wreckage." Xiao Monkey said with red eyes.

Chen Nian and Lu Xiao were also silent when they heard it, and after a while, they asked the monkey again: "But I have to go over and collect the bones of the two of them,"

Xiao Monkey shook his head and said, "There is no delay at this time, I will discuss it with Brother Wen and them later, and then come over to collect it." Only then did he notice that they hadn't been able to bring Lang Zhong over, and he was surprised: "Miss Xie, what about Lang Zhong,"

Chen Nian shook his head and said: "There are some strange things in the pharmacy, I can't call Lang Zhong out now, and I can't go again until the evening." She thought for a while, and then asked Xiao Monkey, "Do you dare to go back to the village by yourself?"

Xiao Monkey was most afraid of leaving the impression of being timid and useless to Chen Nian, so he hurriedly straightened his chest when he heard this, and said: "What dare you do, in broad daylight, the wild wolf will not come out." ”

Chen Nian nodded, thought about it and said: "Then you go back first, and tell Master Wen that I am thinking of looking for Langzhong, and tell him to wait, but if I can't go back early tomorrow morning, you don't have to wait any longer, hurry up and leave the village to find another way to make a living." ”

Xiao Monkey heard Chen Nian say that she and Lu Xiao might not be able to go back, so she panicked a little and asked nervously, "Why can't you two go back?"

"It's just possible, don't panic." Chen Nian didn't want to talk to him in detail, so he only said, "Don't ask again, go back quickly, otherwise you won't be able to return to the village before dark." ”

Xiao Monkey was helpless, and he didn't dare to disobey Chen Nian's words, although he was very frightened and worried in his heart, he had to beat his horse and run to the village. Chen Nian and Lu Xiao watched him leave, so they also temporarily found a sheltered place, picked up some dry firewood and made a fire, and waited for the time to return to the medicine shop.

Chen Nian knew very little about Jing Yuxuan, although she thought that since Chaoyangzi asked him to go at that time, there must be a way to restrain Jing Yuxuan, but after all, she had no bottom in her heart, hesitated for a moment, and still said to Lu Xiao: "Otherwise, let's not save that Chaoyangzi, the friendship is not very deep, and I can't afford to lose my life for him again." ”

Lu Xiao glanced at her and asked, "Do you want to save it?"

Although Chen Nian was annoyed that Chaoyangzi teased her, that person could be regarded as kind to her, and if he could save her, he should naturally be saved, not to mention that saving Chaoyangzi meant that Yang Yi and they also had hope of survival. Chen Nian thought for a moment and replied, "I want to save it, but I ......"

Lu Xiao interrupted her, "Then save it, it's not so much,"

Chen Nian was silenced by him, and after a while he whispered: "If only I go to the adventure by myself, it will be okay, but I still have to involve you, I don't want to go." ”

Hearing this, Lu Xiao turned to her and looked at her, and said strangely: "Xie Chennian, I used to think that you were cheerful and neat, and it was a good thing to do it, but now you have become a mother-in-law and mother-in-law, is this the first time you have dragged me to take an adventure?"

Chen Nian was choked up by his question, and looked at him unable to answer.

Lu Xiao said again: "I don't know if your father-in-law has told you, I have sworn to serve you as the Lord." In fact, it stands to reason that since you are my master, I should stop you from taking risks, but I have always thought that people live for something, if they only live for the sake of living, and are so scared that they dare not do anything for the sake of living, then there is no point in living. Therefore, as long as you feel that the man and that thing are worth your risk, I will not stop you, as long as I can protect you and die behind me, it is not a violation of the oath. ”

Chen Nian didn't expect him to say such a large amount of words, and he couldn't react for a while, and looked at him stunned for a moment, and then said: "Lu Xiao, you have learned Chinese really well, and you will reason with me." ”

As soon as she finished speaking, she laughed first. Lu Xiao also grinned at her, revealing a mouthful of white Sensen's teeth, and said, "Actually, I didn't think so stupid. ”

Chen Nian nodded and smiled: "I'm not stupid, I used to look away." ”

Lu Xiao looked at her, stepped aside, changed the subject and asked: "Wen Daya, they want to follow you, why don't you, in our Xian clan, if someone has a clan willing to follow you, it means that you have the ability, which is an excellent thing." ”

Chen Nian thought for a while when he heard this, and said: "If I accept them, then I have to be responsible for them, don't talk about it for the time being, at least I have to be able to feed them and clothe them, so that they will not lose their lives indiscriminately, this burden is too heavy." ”

Lu Xiao was still a little puzzled, and frowned unconsciously, but he didn't ask again. The two of them were chatting in the snow without saying a word, and before they knew it, the sun had set behind the mountain. The temperature in the mountains dropped suddenly, and it was extremely cold. Chen Nian said to himself: "If you weren't afraid of revealing your whereabouts, you should really go to the town to stay in the store for half a night." ”

Lu Xiao glanced at her twice, leaned closer to her, and sneered: "Just like you, you still have to go outside the gate at this time, I think it's better to forget it, so you don't have to freeze into an iceman again." ”

Chen Nian smiled, but didn't say anything. When they were nearing the end of the day, they left their horses by the fire, and got up and went to the town. The Li family's pharmacy was located at the east end of the town, and the two of them did not take the bluestone road, but bypassed the back street. Lu Xiao first stood outside the wall and listened, signaled Chen Nian to wait outside, and then quietly jumped into the courtyard.

Chen Nian was waiting outside for a cup of tea, and suddenly heard the sound of breaking the window inside, followed by the sound of swords fighting, but the sound only rang three or two times before it suddenly broke off, Chen Nian didn't know what Lu Xiao's situation was, he was in a hurry, and he jumped over the wall and jumped in. The lights were on in the east wing, and when she rushed in again, Lu Xiao had already pressed a young man under the knife, but he was only twenty-five or sixteen years old, with an ordinary appearance, but his eyes were as bright as cold stars, which was very eye-catching, and he was glaring at Lu Xiao with hatred at the moment.

Lu Xiao turned a blind eye to the man's gaze, and only turned around and asked Chen Nian, "Kill or not,"
