Chapter 318: The First Signs (1)

Xiao Wu returned to the room and sat on the couch for a while.

After about a stick of incense, there was a knock on the door.

"Who?"

Junbao responded, "Let's go, it's time to go to dinner."

Xiao Wu replied, "Oh, I'm not hungry, I don't eat, I'm a little tired, I want to wash and go to bed early, if it's not urgent, don't bother me anymore."

Junbao shook his head helplessly, turned to leave, and passed Xiao Wu's original words to his grandfather.

Zhou Dan looked at the food on the table and felt that he had no appetite.

After a simple scrub with hot water, Xiao Wu changed into a cyan robe, put on a green gauze hat, carried the blank edict that had been printed, and took the climbing claw rope to blow out the candle.

Looking out of the crack in the window, when he saw the patrol guard far away, he jumped directly from the back window to the second floor and disappeared into the night.

Xiao Wu sneaked into a secluded wall in the garden, took out a rope with an iron claw and threw it up, and the iron claw grabbed the wall, and she easily climbed over the high wall along the thin rope, unaware.

There was a drizzle in the sky, and a cold, damp mist was everywhere.

Walking lonely on the dark and deserted street, Xiao Wu didn't know where to go for a while?

There were scattered points of light flickering in the distance, and Xiao Wu walked towards the light blankly.

I don't know how long I walked, I felt that my legs were very sore, and I looked up sharply and found myself on the stage where I had sold myself.

Xiao Wu sat on the edge of the stage, drenched in a cold drizzle, as if it happened yesterday......

A wry smile overflowed the corners of his mouth, how simple his mind was at that time, what he wanted was to help his father pay off his gambling debts, and all the time, he was looking forward to the master to pick him up.

Now, except for Wuba and the master who dare not touch easily, his heart is full of plagues, poisoning, revenge, and unfulfilled promises......

I didn't dare to stop for a moment.

Calming down and thinking about his past little dance, the master, who was deliberately pressed in his heart, jumped out again "suddenly".

How good would it be if the master was here?

The master will definitely understand herself, can give herself comfort and warmth, with the master here, even if the sky falls, she doesn't have to worry about it, because the master is omnipotent.

I haven't seen my master for almost ten years, and I'm sixteen years old.

Sixteen years old is the age at which most mature women should get married.

And those who may be less than a handful of people know that they are women, who will treat themselves as women?

As she gets older, Xiao Wu is more and more afraid to look forward to it, and she doesn't even want her master to come over, feeling that the slave mark on her forehead is no longer worthy of the master, and besides, she is sorry that the master was not loyal and fell in love with Wuba.

The master has not heard from him year after year, should he have forgotten about himself?

There are too many people who lie in this world, and the master may have told a white lie, in order to comfort himself or a child, he can't take it seriously, but he is too serious.

Xiao Wu found a reason to comfort herself, but the more she thought about it, the more distressed she became, and the more comforted she became, the more sad she became.

"Boom ......"

"Crackle......"

There was a chaotic sound in the distance, although it was not loud, in the empty streets at night, Xiao Wu, who had been trained in his ears, heard it clearly, and concluded that it was the sound of a fight.

Xiao Wu wiped the rain from her face and the tears that flowed unconsciously, and rushed towards the sound.

Xiao Wu ran to the door of the Tongren Medical Center, listened inside, and kicked the door open.

I saw two people who looked like men, rummaging in front of the medicine cabinet.

Two men, one old and one young, with their faces covered in blood, were gagged and tied to the legs of a square table, and an old woman was lying on the ground, already unconscious.

Seeing Xiao Wu breaking in, the old man whined, "Woo, help, life, ah......."

The two guy-looking people were startled at first, and when they saw that it was Xiao Wu, who looked like a thin literati, they immediately pouted, their faces full of disdain.

"Interesting, just be honest, master, perhaps...... I can spare your life."

A short man said, holding a dagger in his hand, and walked towards Xiao Wu.

Xiao Wu also took out a dagger and fought with the short man.

The tall man went to close the door first, and when he turned around and saw that his companion couldn't win Xiao Wu, he took a short knife and also joined the battle and came in.

It took about half a pillar of incense to subdue the two of them, and untied the rope that tied the old and the young, and tied the two of them strongly.

The old man trembled and saluted Xiao Wu, and greeted the young man who was treating the old woman.

"Thank you, thank you, son, you saved our whole family, you are the great benefactor of my family, son, come and kowtow to the benefactor"

The old woman woke up faintly under the pinch of the young man.

"Bao'er, are you alright?"

"Mother, I'm fine, come, sit down"

The young man helped the old woman to sit on the chair and came to Xiao Wu, and was about to kneel down with her robe, but she hurriedly reached out to support her.

"Are they taking advantage of the chaos?"

The young man turned his head, glared angrily at the two tied up, and said with a look of resentment: "They are not here to rob money, but to force medicinal herbs."

The two guys dressed up as good martial arts and tall figures, Xiao Wu had already suspected that the two were not simple guys, but more like samurai.

"Medicinal herbs, they just need medicinal herbs?"

The young man generously replied, "Yes! Since yesterday noon, our store has been closed for many days, and people have been breaking in...... There have been as many as four or five robberies."

"Robbery, all the medicine!"

"They robbed all kinds of medicines, atractylodes, realgar, rhubarb, especially curcuma, all of them were snatched up, no, they came to force us to do curcuma again. ”

"Is it all robbing?"

"Yes, this curcuma is called "green silk tulip", it is very expensive, it is not very versatile, and the inventory is naturally not much, and it has been bought by the people before us, and they have forced us to ...... Take out the curcuma, where do we still have it?"

Xiao Wu keenly noticed that the situation was abnormal, and hurriedly asked, "Curcuma, Atractylodes, what are the effects of these medicines they want?"

The young man grimaced, "Oh, these medicines...... ...... against epidemics More or less it will have some effect, I think it will be used to prevent the plague."

"In this case, is it just you, or are other pharmacies also encountering forced purchases and robberies?"

The old man sighed, "Several medical centers on this street have been robbed."

Xiao Wu looked at the two people who were sitting on the ground, and asked with a sloppy face, "Say......! For what? Who arranged for you?".

The short man snorted, "Huh, nonsense, buy medicine...... Heal the disease".

"What kind of disease to cure, where is the prescription, who to treat? Say ...... quickly"

The two of them were stunned by Xiao Wu's series of questions, and they both felt that Xiao Wu was not an ordinary nosy person, depending on not wanting to cause trouble, so they put down their arrogant expressions and replied in a hurry.

"Governing ...... Cure stomach pain, the formula is not brought, it is for our mother...... Healing"

Xiao Wu looked at the old man with talking-like eyes, and saw that he shook his head slightly, understanding that this medicine did not cure stomach pain at all.

It's not that the two men are stupid, obviously the young man said that curcuma and so on may prevent the plague, and they dare not say it when they hear it, for fear of exposing their purpose of looking for medicine, and second, for fear of attracting guards to carry away their sick "fake old lady".

Xiao Wu took a step forward and raised her leg to kick the short man down, judging from their appearance, the two of them were obviously not brothers in the family, obviously they were lying.

Xiao Wu deliberately scolded angrily, "Fuck you, do you want to find death? Lie? and don't look at the master...... Okay, take the master...... Go to your house and see how your wife gave birth to you...... Different stuff?".

Set a small goal first, such as remembering in 1 second: book guest residence
