Chapter Eighty-Eight: A Dwelling in the Mountains
Seeing that the sun was about to set, Jin Xinyuan and the others slowly got up from the bed one by one.
As soon as he saw Chu Xiao, Jin Xinyuan hurriedly avoided his eyes, he didn't expect that he would fall asleep in such an environment.
Chu Xiao looked at Jin Xinyuan's dodging appearance and snorted coldly, "I see that you don't usually like to sleep so much." ”
"Isn't that a special case?"
Jin Xinyuan walked towards Chu Xiao with a smile and patted him lightly on the back.
Jin Xinyue looked at Chu Xiao's indifferent expression, thinking that he was angry for his younger brother, so he hurriedly helped his younger brother speak.
"Young Master Chu, we are causing you trouble, please don't be angry with Yuan'er for the sake of everyone's acquaintance."
"Miss Xiaoyue, don't worry, Chu Xiao won't be angry because of this little thing."
Ever since he knew that Miss Xiaoyue was Jin Xinyuan's sister, Tong Xiang felt a little unhappy every time he saw her talking to Chu Xiao.
She knew that everyone couldn't be so careful when they got along together, but she just couldn't control her emotions.
After hearing Tong Xiang's words, Jin Xinyue lowered her head and said in a low voice, "That's good." ”
After the joke, Jin Xinyuan's expression became serious.
"Chu Xiao, what did you find on this trip?"
After a day's sleep, Jin Xinyuan was refreshed, and he would not forget his purpose.
When it came to this topic, everyone present became serious.
Chu Xiao coughed lightly twice, "Doctor Liu has passed away." ”
"How is that possible?" After hearing this, Jin Xinyuan waved his hand and said firmly, "This Dr. Liu is in such good health, are you mistaken?" ”
In the face of Jin Xinyuan's questioning, Chu Xiao still did not change his face.
"Probably not, if that is indeed Dr. Liu's son, then the deceased must be Dr. Liu."
After learning the news, Jin Xinyuan didn't say anything for a long time.
That Dr. Liu has also worked in Rendetang for decades, and since Jin Xinyuan began to remember, he has known about Dr. Liu's existence.
In the past few years, Dr. Liu has also helped Jin Xinyuan a lot with his medical skills.
For some things that he doesn't understand in medical books, Jin Xinyuan always asks Dr. Liu for advice, and Dr. Liu always knows everything and says everything.
Looking at Jin Xinyuan's sad expression, Tong Xiang sighed slightly, "Since we are not sure if the news is correct, it is better for us to come and see tomorrow." ”
Chu Xiao was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and then shook his head.
"They live in such a remote place, it's obvious that they are hiding, and it's not appropriate for us to go over so blatantly."
Tong Xiang's face was cold, and he said lightly: "If the people are gone, what do you care about?" ”
Chu Xiao still felt that something was wrong, after all, the person behind Doctor Liu had not yet appeared, and it was still a potential danger.
If it is discovered at this time that they have been investigating this matter, it will not only be a great hidden danger to them, but may also have a bad impact on Dr. Liu's family.
Without waiting for Chu Xiao to express his thoughts, Jin Xinyuan slapped it on the table fiercely.
"No matter what, we are going to take a look, after all, Dr. Liu is the key to the whole thing, we haven't shown up, so what's the point of investigating?"
Listening to Jin Xinyuan's bold words, Chu Xiao swallowed the words that had already reached his mouth.
What Jin Xinyuan said is not unreasonable, some things have to be faced after all, otherwise all this will always be a mystery.
Considering that Jin Xinyue and Xiaoqin had a huge amount of activity in the past two days, and their physical strength might not be able to support them to go to Dr. Liu's house, Tong Xiang and the others drove over.
The mountain path is extremely narrow, and the carriage has to press the grass on the side of the road in the middle, and the whole body swayed.
Jin Xinyuan sat in the carriage, and his body would hit the body of the carriage from time to time, and along the way, his face became more and more gloomy.
He lifted the curtain and looked out the window, his brow furrowed.
"You say that this Dr. Liu's son is really powerful, in order to gamble, he shuttles on such a path all day long."
Tong Xiang chuckled, "After being addicted, you can do anything, if the white flowers are popular, then Kobe Bryant's gambling will have a lot of impact." ”
Although she has never been exposed to drugs, she has seen many people die because of this, so she hates this kind of thing in her heart.
Jin Xinyuan listened to Tong Xiang's resentful tone, and the corners of his mouth hooked up a shallow smile.
"Actually, this matter itself doesn't have much to do with you, why are you so interested in Baihua?"
Although Jin Xinyuan had a smile on his face, his eyes were more like interrogation.
Tong Xiang was silent for a moment, and then slowly spoke: "I'm not afraid that you Rendetang won't be able to distinguish between right and wrong, and when the time comes, the patients will come to me, won't I be exhausted to death?" ”
When Jin Xinyuan heard this, he pursed his lips impatiently, "Who do you think you are, this incident is just an accident, those patients are still very convinced of Rendetang's medical skills." ”
Tong Xiang looked at Jin Xinyuan's bulging appearance, and the smile on the corner of his mouth became even stronger.
"Anyway, you're under my hands now, no matter what we research, the money we earn is mine, what reason do I have not to investigate this matter?"
"Tong Xiang, you have a good wishful thinking, let me tell you, I will set up my own door after I go back, and I won't tell you all the results."
As soon as Jin Xinyuan heard the question of the ownership of interests, his emotions suddenly became excited.
Tong Xiang didn't refute, just looked at Jin Xinyuan with a smile, "I won't lose if you leave, anyway, you have a lot of compensation." ”
As soon as Tong Xiang's words came out, Jin Xinyuan instantly quieted down, he lowered his head and didn't say a word for a long time.
Tong Xiang looked at Jin Xinyuan and couldn't help smacking his tongue, "Jin Gongzi, we are clearly written in black and white, you shouldn't be able to repay your debts." ”
Jin Xinyuan glanced at Tong Xiang and responded impatiently: "If you say that it is difficult to chase the horse, how can I repay the debt?" ”
After finishing speaking, Jin Xinyuan leaned on the body and helplessly endured the impact again and again.
After half an hour, the carriage finally stopped. Chu Xiao's deep voice came from outside the door, "It's ahead, this section of the road is narrower, and the carriage can't pass." ”
"What the hell is this place to live in, why is this road so difficult to walk?"
Jin Xinyuan muttered quietly as he got out of the car.
When they got out of the car, they couldn't help but be a little surprised when they looked at the pile of low bushes in front of them.
Jin Xinyuan walked around the carriage for a while, and finally stopped in front of Chu Xiao, "There is not even a road around here, how can we go?" ”
Chu Xiao pointed to the one in front of him, which was only about a foot long, and said with a smile, "That's it, Dr. Liu's son entered from here." ”
Looking in the direction of Chu Xiao's hand, Jin Xinyuan couldn't believe his eyes.
"Can people leave this place? Are you mistaken? ”
In such a small place, even a small child should be careful of the bushes on both sides of the road to avoid tripping over anything.
Chu Xiao nodded solemnly, "I'm sure it's here, his carriage stopped here at that time." ”
After finishing speaking, Chu Xiao also pointed to a tree next to him, "At that time, in order to prevent mistakes, I also made a mark on the tree. ”
Jin Xinyuan walked quickly to the bottom of the tree, looked at the word "Chu" on the tree and sighed helplessly.
He could not have imagined that the road he had just stumbled through in the carriage was the best.
Tong Xiang raised his head, one hand in front of his forehead, squinting at the bright sunshine.
"Okay, let's not waste time, it's getting hotter and hotter."
After finishing speaking, she glanced at Chu Xiao, "The two of us will open the way in front, and the three of you will follow behind." ”
Fortunately, Tong Xiang also brought a dagger for self-defense when he went out, although it may not be of great use, but it still works.
Just when Tong Xiang had already bent down and was about to make a move, the dagger in his hand was snatched away.
"It's good for you to follow behind, I'll do these things."
The gentle voice reached her ears, Tong Xiang's heartbeat accelerated slightly, and she slowly raised her head, just in time to meet Chu Xiao's deep eyes.
I don't know why, Tong Xiang's body at this time seems to be out of her control, she obviously wants to say that she can, but she can't say anything.
"Okay, don't be in a daze here, let's go."
Seeing Chu Xiao and Tong Xiang grinding and chirping in front of them, Jin Xinyuan stepped forward and patted Chu Xiao on the shoulder.
Jin Xinyuan's voice pulled Tong Xiang out of her thoughts, and she quickly stood up and stood behind Chu Xiao.
"Then be careful yourself."
After saying this, Tong Xiang seemed to be a different person, and his tone became extremely cold, "What are you urging, why don't you go to the front to open the way?" ”
Jin Xinyuan looked at Tong Xiang's face full of doubts, "How did I provoke you, how did it be like eating gunpowder?" ”
Jin Xinyue was a bystander, and hurriedly pulled his younger brother over, "Okay, stop talking, let's leave quickly." ”
Fortunately, Dr. Liu's son often goes out, so the road is much easier to walk than in places that have never been cultivated.
After overcoming all the obstacles along the way, Tong Xiang and the others finally saw the eaves hidden among the trees not far away.
Xiaoqin was already out of breath at this time, and when she saw the dawn, she was instantly relieved.
"It's finally coming."
A few people worked hard to finally keep the clouds open and see the moon, and walked to the gate of the house.
The wooden gate was closed, signaling that no one should approach.
As soon as Jin Xinyuan raised his head, he happened to see the white paper flowers hanging in front of the door, and his face instantly became gloomy.
In this era, if someone in the family dies, there will be such a white paper flower hanging at the door.
He walked to the door with heavy steps, stood on tiptoe and barely touched the deadbolt, knocking lightly a few times.
After a long wait, there was no answer from inside the door.
Tong Xiang's expression also became serious, Chu Xiao was sure that it was this position, so why didn't anyone answer?
