Chapter 40: The Pursuers (Supplement 1)

The original tan cane was plated with a dark red, like the color of blood, and like it had drunk human blood.

Wang Ding always felt that it had life.

Sure enough, the green shoots on the cane grew rapidly, and even bloomed a small pink flower.

Granny Mu slowly pulled back the crutches.

The man immediately fell to the ground, breathless, and looked like a dried corpse that had been dried for decades, and even his hair turned white.

Even a layman like Wang Ding can see that Granny Mu must have used an evil method to extract all the vitality of this person, and there is not a drop left. He swallowed subconsciously.

Grunt, a bit loud.

Granny Mu glanced at him and pointed to the woman on the ground: "Hold her up." ”

Then it was concocted in the same way.

When the woman saw the tragic condition of her companion, she had already closed her eyes and passed out, saving her a lot of pain before she died.

Soon, a second small flower bloomed on the crutches.

Granny Mu casually pointed to the two people on the ground: "Dispose of it." Now, their nutrients are inferior to yellow sand. ”

By the time Wang Ding threw the two corpses away and returned, Granny Mu had already walked to the center of the medicine field, and then raised her crutches and stabbed them hard into the soil.

The dark red that absorbs the texture of the cane moves downstream, passing through the tip of the cane into the soil.

The ground under the rod quickly turned red, but it was very light in color.

Immediately after, a faint mist of water escaped from the soil and floated over the entire medicine field.

Only then did Wang Ding understand that the peach powder mist in the air was originally formed in this way!

After this action, the fog became more beautiful and hazy, covering the river and the fields in a pink dream, which should be the ## #春少女最喜欢的颜色. But its source is so horrible and terrible!

The mist rolled, and small sprouts sprang up in an instant from the bare clumps on the ground.

In the blink of an eye, the herbal seeds sown by Granny Mu earlier took root and broke through the ground.

Wang Ding looked a little dazed, it turned out that she was using the essence of human flesh and blood as fertilizer and releasing it to this medicinal field. It is no wonder that Granny Mu has a complete range of medicinal materials and a sufficient age, and he recognizes that there is a famous herb in the field, which is called arachnid, which should have grown between the cold cliffs, and is difficult to pick, so the price remains high. But in Granny Mu's medicine field, they are arranged like Chinese cabbage, in an orderly manner.

All of this made him feel awe of this strange old woman.

When Shen Gu led the elite to the outskirts of Poison Fang Mountain, the officials and troops of Pinggu County were already waiting here. When he saw a large piece of the clothes on the backs of the big-headed soldiers, he knew that the officers and soldiers had only arrived soon.

"What about people?"

Without waiting for the county lieutenant to speak, Shen Gu's henchman stepped forward to report: "My lord, the target has entered the Poison Fang Mountain, and there is a special person to follow up." "They stayed here and waited for Shen Gu.

"Let's go. "He didn't want to waste any time.

On the way, the henchman informed him of more information: "The boy once snatched the golden lock of Huang Yiying, the young lady of the Huang family, with his bare hands, and Qing Xu smelled the smell on it, confirming that he had walked back and forth around the outer wall of the Huang Mansion a few times. "Qing Xu is a dog demon, and his sense of smell is more than ten times better than that of ordinary people," confirmed the horse-drinker behind the east gate, who had left his mount there, and returned in less than a quarter of an hour, mounted his horse and galloped out of the city. In order to stop the pursuers, he also threw copper coins into the middle of the market several times. ”

Shen Gu groaned: "That is to say, he has been in Pinggu County for a whole day, and he didn't go to rob Huang Yiying's golden lock until he left?"

"Exactly. ”

"The fact that he can throw money into the heart of the street shows that he has a clear mind and is not crazy. Shen Gu had a calm face, not very happy. This little ghost used to be just a beggar in Yicheng, or was he mute, how could he become more and more a demon?" "Did you find out what he was doing outside the Huang family?"

The henchman shook his head.

The behavior of the little beggar looks very much like the Jiang Yang thief stepping on the plate before robbing the rich. The ensuing actions also proved that he did indeed commit a robbery. But Shen Gu knew that the truth was not so simple.

What is there in the Huang family that is worth coveting this fugitive kid at the risk of revealing his identity?

"What other clues?"

"Yesterday evening, he also went to Chunhui Pharmacy in Pinggu County. ”

This answer surprised Shen Gu: "He was injured?"

"The guy at the medicine store said, no. But he gave a prescription to catch the medicine, which listed all kinds of rare and precious medicines. The henchman added, "It's worth nearly a hundred taels, and a beggar like him can't afford it, so he left." ”

"This Chunhui medicine store, including other medicine stores in Pinggu County, has it ever lost medicinal materials today?"

"So far, I haven't reported the loss to the medicine store. ”

Shen Gu looked for another point: "What about the prescription?" ”

The henchman handed over a piece of paper: "That guy can't remember everything, he only wrote less than half of it on the paper." There are several flavors of medicine to supplement and hedge, and the amount is fierce, and if you really eat it, it will become a tiger and wolf medicine, and it will not cure the disease, but it will be fatal. ”

If you really want to harm people, you can buy medicine to make drugs, why spend so much money to make it so troublesome?

Shen Gu's frowning brows couldn't be loosened for a long time. The henchman handed over another one: "And the little beggar didn't go to the medicine store alone. ”

The reassurance lifted the adult's spirits: "What?" "Great, is this an accomplice showing up?"

"When we checked Chunhui's pharmacy, the guy didn't think of this little beggar and the wanted criminal together, because he went to the pharmacy with a beautiful woman in red last night, and the questions and answers were all done by the woman, and the boy was silent the whole time. ”

The light in Shen Gu's eyes flashed: "You called him to paint a statue?"

"Go. But he repeatedly said that she had the appearance of a heavenly person, and he had never seen such a good-looking woman in his life. But if you really want him to depict the shape of his nose and eyes, he can't say. ”

Shen Gu scolded: "Rubbish!" What kind of knowledge can a medicine shop guy in such a small place have? Any noble lady from Kyoto who shows up is a "celestial" to him, right? This statement itself has no reference significance.

These two people also stayed at the Fenglai Post House outside the west wall of the Yellow Mansion and three streets away. The shopkeeper also confirmed that there had been a beautiful woman who brought a boy to stay. But she didn't talk much, and after paying the money, she went upstairs directly, and the shopkeeper couldn't remember her appearance. ”

His confession was surprisingly consistent with that of the medicine shop.

They couldn't remember or say what she looked like.

Beauty? There are so many beauties in the world, where can he start to find out? Shen Gu made a difficulty, but he quickly thought that the boy today was riding a horse away from the city, but this red-clothed beauty was nowhere to be seen.

Will she still stay in the county and leave too late?

Thinking of this, he immediately sent an order: "The Pinggu County Office will strictly investigate, and she must be found." ”

Now everyone is still walking the official road.
