"Girl, what are you doing here?!"

Seeing the woman in front of him kneeling, Han Lin was shocked, and quickly stood up, wanting to help the other party.

The woman was in her twenties, but after seeing Han Lin at this moment, she cried directly.

"Girl, what's wrong with you? Money is a small matter, I'm not in a hurry, it doesn't matter how many days it is late. Han Lin immediately said in a warm voice, and even Xiaowen immediately came over to persuade the young lady not to cry.

But when the woman heard this, she cried even more.

This made Han Lin completely confused, so he could only comfort him slowly, and after a while, the woman pursed her lips and said with a pleading face:

"Master Han, your great kindness, the little woman will never dare to forget, but now, after my grandfather went to the medicine garden outside the city, he hasn't come back for three days, dad and grandpa, I don't know what happened......

The woman cried and said, saying that on the night when Grandpa was helping Han Lin, he set off for the medicine garden overnight.

Although there are thirty miles away, she should have arrived in one night, but this time, there was no news directly, so she was alone at home, and after waiting for three whole days, she could only come to Han Lin to explain the situation.

"Is there such a thing?" Han Lin frowned.

The matter of this family, he asked his parents casually before, knowing that the son who guarded the medicine garden was a down-to-earth person, and it would be understandable if something happened to him if something happened to the medicine garden, but his grandfather had just passed, how could there be a response, right?

"There was only one donkey cart in the house, and my grandfather took it, and I wanted to go, but it was too far away...... Childe, can you ask someone to help me drop by?"

The woman had a look of distress, it was too dangerous for her to go on the road alone, and she had no means of transportation, so she couldn't afford to rent a carriage or anything, so she could only come to Han Lin again.

"Well, don't worry, girl...... I'll help you check it out. After thinking about it for a while, Han Lin felt that it was troublesome to ask others.

And these thirty miles, based on his current footsteps, it doesn't take half an hour to run, so it can be regarded as a night run to eliminate food.

"This, how embarrassing, I just want Han Gongzi to have someone drop by, just ask, don't dare to bother Gongzi......" The woman's face turned red, but immediately, Han Lin gently patted her shoulder, signaling her not to get excited.

"Small things, you continue to worry tonight, tell me the direction, I am the worship of Luoyang City after all. Han Lin said with a smile.

The position of worship in this world is almost omnipotent, although it is very good, but if the government has any trouble, it may find an offering, simply put, it is to serve Luoyang City.

Of course, this kind of service needs to be requested by the government, not directly by the people.

However, Han Lin regarded the offering as a responsibility, and since the woman in front of him was in trouble, he could help directly.

At this moment, the woman was even more excited and didn't know what to say, and her eyes were full of gratitude and respect when she looked at Han Lin.

"Xiaowen, take care of this sister, you wait for me here, and I'll bring back the news in an hour. ”

After Han Lin knew the location, he changed into clothes that were convenient for movement, and finally considering that there might be beasts or something in the wild, he picked up a cold steel long knife that the chief soldier Tang Yuan gave when he came to congratulate him the day before yesterday.

This cold steel is far tougher and sharper than stainless steel, and it has the effect of calming the mind, and Li Changan and Li Wei, who also practice mad knives, also use this material.

After Han Lin tried it, he felt very comfortable, so he directly accepted it as his weapon.

"Young Master be careful, do you need to carry a lantern?" Xiaowen asked with concern.

"No, the moon is quite big today, my eyes can see it. Han Lin smiled slightly, his internal strength and body have been improving these days, allowing his eyes to see things at night, and carrying a lantern or something will only affect his speed.

After saying that, he walked directly through the door.

"Han Gongzi is really a good person......" The granddaughter of the medicine farmer had a tangled expression, but she didn't expect that this trip she originally wanted to let Han Gongzi not be in a hurry and wait a few more days, but the other party directly helped her to investigate.

When Xiaowen on the side heard this, she smiled sweetly, looked at the departing figure outside the door, and said softly: "Childe is indeed a good person." ”

It's just that at this time, Han Lin didn't even notice that he ran out of his new home, but in the alley diagonally opposite his house, there were two people staring at the door.

"I'm going to report the news, don't lose it, that woman is generous, and the reward is enough for us to spend for a long time." ”

......

In the blink of an eye, Han Lin went out of the city and ran quickly on the official road at night.

With footwork and internal strength, thirty miles is so far away that it will exhaust her for a little girl, but to him, it is nothing.

Most of the traders and travelers also rest at night, so the road is very quiet, and nothing can be heard except for some insects.

Such an environment made Han Lin's heart flash a little throbbing.

"The two of them didn't come back for a long time...... What kind of trouble will you encounter outside the city?" Han Lin muttered, thinking of what had happened recently.

A strange Tan Tianxiong, no one dared to go out at night in Luoyang City, and even he thought of the rumors that the other party was by no means weaker than Li Changan, and he was slightly scared in his heart.

But Han Lin immediately shook his head again, secretly saying that he must have thought too much.

After all, when talking about Tianxiong's return to take revenge, Li Changan said that he wanted to deal with the people who obeyed orders to raid his family back then, and what could it have to do with ordinary people?

So, Han Lin continued to hurry, faster than expected, and not long after, he saw a tea shop that had been closed next to the official road.

"This is it, the girl said that it would be three miles southwest to arrive. Han Lin's eyes lit up, and he found a small fork in the road, and immediately knew that it was leading to the medicine garden.

So, he turned directly, and just a few minutes after entering the path, he smelled a medicinal fragrance.

This medicinal fragrance is elegant and pleasant, just like the fragrance of lotus flowers, incomparably quiet, wisps, as if broken and connected, which is pleasant.

But Han Lin turned on the contrary, his face suddenly changed!

"This is the smell of lotus vanilla, why hasn't it been done?" Han Lin's heart suddenly changed.

This lotus herb is a common heat-clearing and detoxifying herb, and they can sell a lot of it every day in their Han family pharmacy.

It's just that once the lotus herb releases its fragrance, it proves that it is fully ripe, and it should be picked as soon as possible to prevent the loss of medicinal power.

But when he came to the medicine garden and found that there was almost no lotus herb in the medicine garden, Han Lin immediately felt that something was wrong!

Not to mention the late son, even if the old man has been here for three days, and he is in a hurry to repay the harvest, it is impossible to let the lotus herb waste his medicinal power so much.

Thinking of this, Han Lin felt that something was really going on, and immediately became cautious.

He slowed down and walked slowly towards the lonely earthen house in the center of the medicine garden.

In the faint moonlight, the earthen house appeared very dark.

The people inside seemed to have slept, and there was not a single ray of light coming through.

And at this time, Han Lin's nose moved, and his pupils suddenly shrank!

Because when he came to the gate of the medicine garden, he immediately smelled it...... The smell of blood!

After all, his family is making medicinal herbs, and he often goes to the hospital, so he is naturally very familiar with this taste.

Immediately, Han Lin swept his eyes and found that in the yard next to the earthen house, there was a donkey that was hung upside down!

The donkey had been killed, and the blood on the ground had been blackened for some time, and the flesh on it had been almost cut off.

It seemed that someone was unloading the mill and killing the donkey to eat meat, but a hint of coldness flashed in Han Lin's eyes.

"This is the donkey pulling the cart......"

Han Lin remembered what his granddaughter said, his grandfather came overnight in a donkey cart three days ago, and at this moment, for their family, the precious donkey was actually killed, which revealed that something was wrong.

Even when Han Lin took a closer look, there were more animal bones in the corners of the wall, which had already stinked, and he saw two horns, which seemed to be the heads of cows.

"What a heavy smell of blood......"

Han Lin's hand tightened, grasped the handle of the long knife that was not unsheathed, walked to the front of the earth house, and hesitated.

But in the end, he raised his hand and knocked on the door.

No response.

Only the cold wind of the night, howling behind him, made him feel cold.

Han Lin couldn't help but knock on the door for the second time.

He stood quietly in front of the door, and after a long while, he heard the sound of Suosuo, faintly.

"Who!?" asked a deep male voice, nervously.

Han Lin raised his eyebrows slightly, he could hear that this person's voice was not very neutral, not like a person who practiced martial arts.
