Chapter 55: Fighting for the Tiger

He walked over and crouched down on the Circle Wall, thought for a moment, and reached in to touch it. The cub's body shrunk and let out a faint growl, and there was no other movement. He opened the tiger cub's eyelids with his hand, and found that the white inner eyelid could not be retracted, and it looked like it was about to die.

He stood up and walked into Tao Wenbao's room. Chen Sangu was wiping his face with hot water, and Li Bochen saw that Tao Wenbao's face was blue and his lips were pale, so he didn't mean to pretend to be sick.

When he saw Li Bochen walking in, he only squinted his eyes, and said weakly, "Mr. Li, I'm smiling." ”

Li Bochen sighed lowly: "Mr. Tao, you woke up so sick in the morning?"

Tao Wenbao waved his hand, as if he was powerless to speak. Chen Sangu said: "I still have the strength to listen to the owner through the door in the morning, and it will be like this in a while." Don't worry, the young lady has invited a doctor again. ”

Li Bochen walked to the side of the bed and saw that Tao Wenbao was covered with three layers of quilts, and there were six charcoal stoves at the head and foot of the bed, and he seemed to be extremely afraid of the cold. He asked, "Third aunt, is Mr. Tao feverish?"

After Chen Sangu wiped his face, she tucked the corner of the quilt and washed the handkerchief and said, "It's weird to say this." Common illnesses are afraid of cold, and most likely are fever. But the owner is very cold. ”

wiped the corners of Tao Wenbao's mouth again, and picked up the basin: "Mr. Li, take care of it, I'll go get hot soup." ”

When she went out, Li Bochen said, "Mr. Tao, I'll take a look." ”

He put the back of his hand on Tao Wenbao's forehead. It was winter, and he walked in from outside, his hands and feet cold. But when he put it on Tao Wenbao's forehead, he felt even colder, like a piece of ice.

He thought for a moment and said in a low voice, "Mr. Tao, does it feel like a cold method?

Tao Wenbao lifted his eyelids slightly, thought about it, and said weakly: "Mr. Li thinks ...... I'm sick...... I feel cold, but it's not like the wind blowing around, it's like blowing in the body......"

Li Bochen breathed a sigh of relief: "Tao Gong is also suspicious of the people of the Kongming Society?"

Tao Wenbao said: "I didn't expect them to have such courage...... But I was afraid and didn't dare to take my life. It's just that Chen'er and I have suffered. ”

Li Bochen nodded: "Then I'll go and see Dingchen." Tao Gong and rest assured, if the next doctor still can't diagnose and treat, please ask the mage in the city. ”

Tao Wenbao closed his eyes: "...... Mr. Lawrly bothered. ”

Li Bochen went to see Tao Dingchen. The child's condition is not as good as Tao Wenbao's, and he has already fallen asleep. He touched it, and his body was cold. I only spent three days with him, and I really didn't have any deep feelings. But even if the people of the three sects and the ninth rank in Sui Ziang's mouth know the truth that the misfortune will not affect his wife and children, if this matter is really the handiwork of the Kong Ming Society, then it is really okay.

Li Bochen already had a thought in his heart, so he went to the back kitchen. Chen Sangu happened to walk out with the hot soup, so he went down to the cellar of the back kitchen, found a small jar of wine to hide in his arms, and returned to his house in the front yard.

He didn't know if there were any other diseases in this world that would cause "a cold body" or "like the wind was blowing", but he knew that if he was entangled by a yin spirit, it would be so. Last night, Zheng's second sister-in-law sent a tiger cub...... I heard that there is an evil spirit in this world called a ghost, so I like to attach it to the tiger. Now the tiger cub is dying, perhaps because the possessed evil spirit has left.

He drank a small jar of wine in one go, lay down on the bed to gather his mind, and after a few breaths, the yin spirit came out of his body.

First took a turn around the pottery house, and there were only sparse pedestrians, cars and horses on the street, and their expressions were normal. So he went back to the house through the wall and went straight to the backyard to look. When he passed the small door in the backyard, he looked up at the bronze mirror under the eaves of the door, and found that the original faint glow was gone.

His heart sankβ€”not a real illness.

He went straight into the Taowen Conservation Room, thinking that if it was a legendary ghost, maybe he could try to drink it away. But when he entered the room and looked at Tao Wenbao, he was stunned.

The room was clean, and there wasn't even a single yin spirit.

He is incarnated as a yin spirit, and he can see the vitality in the living. Ordinary people who do not have a serious illness will have a very faint light on the surface, and you have to look carefully to notice. But right now, the light on Tao Wenbao's body is brighter than ordinary people, as if the vitality is particularly strong.

But if this is the case, how can it be sick?

He went through the wall to Tao Dingchen's room and found that the child was in the same condition.

He didn't give up, and checked the whole house again, but still didn't find anything abnormal. Outside the walls, there were no one, only the sound of cars and horses passing through the streets, the whispers of pedestrians, and the sound of iron cables heard last time the Yin Spirit left its body. The voice made Li Bochen feel a little uneasy, but he already knew from Chen Sangu that the people in the courtyard next door were running merchants, maybe it was the sound of a cart and horse. He could only take a few hundred steps from his body, and he couldn't see.

There was nothing he could do but go back into the house and wake up.

The smell of alcohol on his body was very strong, and he was afraid that it would cause misunderstanding by smelling it, so he changed his clothes, went to the water room to wash his face and rinse his mouth. After another while, Tao Chunxi and Lao Xu brought in a doctor.

She asked Lao Xu to take the doctor to the backyard, and she walked to the door and whispered to Li Bochen: "Mr. Li, Zheng's second sister-in-law's shop is closed." I asked my neighbor and said that her son had a leg ache last night, and Zheng's second sister-in-law took him out of the city to see a doctor. ”

Li Bochen frowned: "Go out of the city to see a doctor?"

Tao Chunxi sighed: "The neighbor said that it was her son who said that there was a doctor who specialized in bone grafting somewhere outside the city, but I asked if I knew where the doctor was, and the neighbor said that I didn't know - expected." ”

Not to be expected. It seems that there is indeed a problem with the tiger cub sent last night. Li Bochen thought for a while: "Miss Tao, Tao Gong's illness is probably because of magic. ”

Tao Chunxi was stunned: "Mr. Li...... Did you see that?"

"I'm half a cultivator, so I know a little bit. Li Bochen said, "I don't think this doctor can see anything." Gong Tao should have traveled a lot in Zhangcheng, does Miss Tao know if there is any mage in the city who can be invited to exorcise evil spirits?"

Tao Chunxi thought for a while: "Yes." Just Mr. Li, two more things. ”

"Please. ”

"When I went out with Uncle Xu just now, I got lost and walked out in a circle. Tao Chunxi frowned slightly, and said slowly, "I thought I was anxious and panicked." But when I came back, I went around again. ”

Li Bochen's heart jumped: "What else?"

"I met Sui Ziang. I was afraid that Kong Ming would do something, and when I went to Zheng Er's butcher shop, I went to several other shops by the way, so that they knew that Daddy was sick, and he was very sick, and met Sui Ziang on the road, and he asked me if Daddy was better. I thought he had heard it from someone else, but on the way back, I thought that he should have been studying art today, and he would never deal with people in the pig shop, how did he know?"

Li Bochen thought for a while: "He is also a member of the Kongming Society?"

Tao Chunxi shook his head slightly: "He's not, but I heard that he has a cousin...... Daddy said that it was his cousin who blocked the way a few days ago. ”

Li Bochen's heart jumped again: "His cousin is a young man, about the height of my ears, a little dark, with a single eyebrow, right?"

"That's right, that person's name is Fang Qi. ”

Li Bochen thought about it and sighed lowly: "Miss Tao, I'm afraid that Sui Ziang already knows that I live in your house, or at least have a good relationship with your father." ”
