Chapter 8 Seeking Assistance

Zhang Feiyang remembered Hodan who had helped him when he was getting started.

He thought that even if that killer was not Xiang Dong, the leader of the Alchemy Department, it would definitely not be Huo Dan of the Corpse Transport Department.

After all, when he was able to enter the Firefox Sect and become an outer disciple, Huo Dan contributed a lot, if Huo Dan had murderous intentions towards himself, then there was no need to let himself get started.

Before you know who is going to kill you, the best thing to do is to find someone who can help you.

Zhang Feiyang felt that this person was probably the only one who was the most suitable candidate at present.

Thinking of this, he was even more determined in his heart, but he did not rush to the corpse transportation department.

Because, his body is still too weak, in order to be able to meet Hodan and ask him for help, at least it is safe on the road, and he needs to adjust his body first.

Zhang Feiyang didn't want the plan to be good, but before the plan was implemented, because of bad luck, he met the killer halfway and suddenly killed him, but he didn't even have a chance to escape.

As if thinking about it a few times, a cold wind blew, piercing the skin and bones, Zhang Feiyang sneezed coldly, wrapped his clothes tightly, and hurriedly returned to the room to rest.

After a day, the sun was shining, the sky was clear, the air was fresh, Zhang Feiyang's spirit was much better, and he was no longer as tired as he was a while ago.

As soon as he had breakfast, he got up and walked out of the hut and walked around it to exercise, trying to regain the feeling he had when he was healthy.

After lunch, although his physical condition was still not enough to wash clothes, Zhang Feiyang was unwilling to continue to stay in bed, and under the strong persuasion of Zhou Zhou Xian, he still followed him to the river, sat on a big rock, and watched Zhou Zhou Xian wash his clothes, while chatting with him to relieve his boredom.

After dinner, all the senior sisters and Sister Qiao went back to the house to practice, Zhou Zhou Xian also pushed the cart out to collect garbage, Zhang Feiyang was not idle, took a cloth bag, and went to the outside of the wooden house where the senior sisters lived one by one to collect the extra garbage at the end of the day.

When he worked hard and filled most of the garbage in the entire laundry department into half a sack, Zhou Zhou Xian also pushed back with a cart of garbage.

The two handed over briefly.

Zhou Zhou Xian couldn't wait to rush into the hut where Zhang Feiyang and he were sleeping, and lay on the bed to rest.

Zhang Feiyang pushed the cart alone, staggered, and walked out of the mountain gate.

As soon as he closed the mountain gate, he was already panting from exhaustion, his forehead was covered with a row of sweat the size of soybeans, and his face turned pale.

However, Zhang Feiyang didn't dare to delay, and only rested for half a stick of incense, then gritted his teeth and stood up, and pushed the cart to the river again.

At this time, the night was already dark, it was dark in all directions, and he couldn't see anything clearly, Zhang Feiyang swept his head back, and even the mountain gate was shrouded in darkness, and he couldn't distinguish between the southeast and the northwest.

But tonight's moonlight is beautiful, and the moonlight shines on the surface of the lake, like the sun, illuminating the scenery by the lake.

Zhang Feiyang took advantage of this round of moonlight to remove the cloth bag from the cart, and after opening it, he rummaged through it as usual to find useful things to see if there was anything as full of surprises as the red strip of cloth.

It's a pity, this time, there is nothing, the whole sack is full of some discarded copper and iron, as well as tattered robes, in addition, it is the most familiar medicine slag.

Zhang Feiyang was not very disappointed, this result was expected.

It would not be normal if you could find something like a red cloth in the garbage heap every time.

He shook his head, smiled slightly, took out the stove, snapped, and lit it with a flint.

I saw a flash of red light on the surface of the stove, which instantly expanded several times, and stood firmly on the ground on all fours.

Zhang Feiyang skillfully opened the lid, carefully poured the collected medicine residue into it, and then took clean water from the lake and put it in to boil.

Less than half a stick of incense had passed, and a familiar aroma of strong medicine had already wafted out of the small hole on the top of the stove.

"It smells so good. Whether you are sick or not, the medicinal soup made in this stove is still so fragrant. I don't know if I can treat the disease. ”

Zhang Feiyang took a heavy breath, was fascinated and full of anticipation, took a small bowl, filled it all, and drank it all in one gulp.

Sure enough, the feeling of the body improved significantly.

The magic of this medicinal soup once again made him want to scream with excitement.

The feeling of muscle soreness is gone, and although the whole body still has no strength, there is a noticeable improvement in spirit, and all the feeling of fatigue has disappeared.

When Zhang Feiyang went back, even if he had to push the cart to climb the mountain, he didn't have the slightest tiredness and had to stop and rest again.

With such a discovery, Zhang Feiyang's confidence increased greatly, and for seven consecutive days after that, every day he would cook medicinal soup for himself at night when he went out to dump garbage.

His condition became milder and milder, his physical condition recovered little by little at a speed visible to the naked eye, and his spirit healed earlier than his body.

When his body was fully restored, Zhang Feiyang's spirit had already recovered two days ahead of schedule.

He used the time of these two days to inquire in detail about Huo Dan's residence in the corpse transportation department from Zhou Zhou Xian.

The geographical location of the corpse transport department is the valley between the peaks of Firefox Mountain, and the terrain is lower than the laundry department where Zhang Feiyang is located.

It is said that this was to facilitate the transportation and burial of the body, and if it was not suitable to transport the body directly down the steep mountain road when there was any danger, the corpse carrier would throw the body directly down the cliff.

In this way, the outer disciples of the corpse transport department who live in the valley and are close to the cliff only need to carry the corpse directly from the bottom of the cliff, which can not only avoid unnecessary casualties when transporting the corpse, but also save a lot of physical and material resources.

After walking past the plum tree, the whole valley appeared in front of Zhang Feiyang, where the cemetery was, how the dozen wooden houses were arranged, and what the senior brothers were doing outside the wooden houses, all of which were clearly visible.

When Zhang Feiyang walked into the valley, there were two outer disciples guarding the valley, with a majestic face.

But seeing the robe Zhang Feiyang was wearing, the two simply asked where the department he was in was, and saw that Zhang Feiyang answered fluently and behaved naturally, so they let him go.

According to Zhou Xian's information, Hodan lived in the northernmost and largest wooden house.

Because, in the corpse transportation department, the larger the wooden house, the more noble the status and status.

Zhang Feiyang came to the front of the wooden house, took a deep breath, and began to knock lightly on the door.

The sound of "knock knock" echoed in my ears again and again, but there was no sound of the door opening.

Could it be that Senior Brother Huo was asleep? Or, he was busy with something important, so he didn't hear it?

Zhang Feiyang accentuated his voice a little and continued to knock on the door.

But there was still only an echo of "knock knock" in his ears, and still no one knocked on the door.

Seeing that the door trembled slightly, the amplitude was already very large, and even the senior brothers of the corpse transportation department who passed by all looked sideways and cast curious eyes, but the door inside still did not open, Zhang Feiyang raised his voice again, and called loudly while slamming the door: "Senior Brother Huo, are you there? I am Zhang Feiyang." Senior Brother Huo......"

The door remained closed.

After trying more than a dozen times and shouting seven or eight times, seeing that there was still no response from inside, and the door was not opened, Zhang Feiyang knew that Huo Dan was probably not there, so he retreated from the front of the wooden house, and randomly asked a female senior sister next to him to ask about Huo Dan's whereabouts.

"Senior sister. I have something to do with Senior Brother Huo. Do you know where they are?"

"I don't know. Senior Brother Huo never let us go to him. He was the only one who came to us. ”

Zhang Feiyang was taken aback, and changed to a senior brother to continue the interrogation.

"Senior brother. Hello. I'm here to find Senior Brother Huo for something. Senior Brother Huo, is this going out to transport the corpse?"

The senior brother shook his head and gave a similar answer to the female senior sister in front.

"Nope. If there is work to do, Senior Brother Huo will summon us to go out together. I won't do it alone. That's too much trouble. ”

Zhang Feiyang said: "Then do you know where Senior Brother Huo is now?"

"I don't know. ”

Seeing that he was leaving, Zhang Feiyang took his hand and continued to ask: "Senior brother." Then do you know when Senior Brother Huo will come back when he is usually not at the residence?"

"It's hard to say. When Senior Brother Huo was acting alone, he never asked us to ask him where he went and what he did. There's no chance he'll come back. Sometimes it's a little shorter, maybe half a day. Sometimes a little later, maybe a month or two, it's possible. ”

This answer was like a basin of cold water, which extinguished Zhang Feiyang's enthusiasm.

He never thought that it would be so difficult to come to Hodan for help, obviously they all belong to the same sect, and if they want to meet, they all have to rely on luck.

He shook his head, looked at the sky, saw that the sun was about to set, and wanted to stay and continue to wait, and wanted to leave, thinking that waiting was not the way, in case the person who was going to kill him happened to come to the corpse transport department and show it to the other party, or simply that person was in the corpse transport department, and now he had already seen it for the other party, then it was the most dangerous to leave without knowing it now.

The strength of the other party is obviously stronger than his own, he must be a person who has already practiced the "Qi Refining Technique", and he can no longer compare with a prisoner like himself, if he is really unfortunate that his whereabouts have been exposed now, then it is safest to stay near the residence of the corpse transport department with many people.

After all, that night, that person actually chose to sneak into the wooden house to kill himself, which shows that the person did not want to reveal his identity.

With such considerations, Zhang Feiyang didn't plan to leave for the time being, so while inquiring about Huo Dan's whereabouts, he walked between the wooden houses in the corpse transportation department, looking forward to Huo Dan's early return.

Just as he walked to the last wooden house, he suddenly found that in a remote area to the west, there was actually a wooden house, standing alone, half of which was connected to the cliff, as if it was left out and isolated by everyone, and no one of the disciples of the corpse carrying department had gone there, or even a single person had not looked there.

Zhang Feiyang was curious, walked over, and just when he got closer, he saw the door of the wooden house open, and a familiar man came out of it, sorting out his clothes triumphantly. Looking at the look on his face, it seemed that he had done something extremely happy just now, and he looked satisfied, it turned out to be Hodan.

Zhang Feiyang walked over excitedly, bowed respectfully, and took the initiative to greet: "Senior Brother Huo." Hello. ”

The moment Huo Dan saw Zhang Feiyang, all the pleasant reactions just now disappeared, and his face was gloomy and terrifying, as if the weather suddenly turned from sunny to cloudy.

Zhang Feiyang felt a huge pressure spread.
