It seems that this Han Guishan has to go to the meeting by himself. Zhan Qingxiao thought to himself.

"Qingxiao, do you have any demon gold, get me some. Zhan Qingxiao was thinking about it, Zhan Qingyun walked downstairs, sat opposite him, and asked while eating.

Zhan Qingyun had been sleeping before, and he naturally didn't know what happened in the lobby just now, and the reason why he went downstairs was because he was hungry. These days, Zhan Qingxiao asked him to stay in the room and not appear in such a high-profile manner, so as not to cause unnecessary trouble.

"You're going out?" asked Zhan Qingxiao.

"Well, I've got to find a way to get Vial and Lil out. Zhan Qingyun finished eating in three or two clicks, and then said.

Zhan Qingxiao took out a few golden tickets, he naturally knew that Zhan Qingyun was not a reckless person, and he would not go directly to the town guard to save people, so he said: "You be careful, this is a demon clan after all, if there is anything, discuss it with me first." ”

"yes, I see. Zhan Qingyun took the golden ticket, then got up and walked outside.

As soon as he walked to the door, he bumped into a person, Zhan Qingyun didn't look at anyone, and said a little unpleasantly: "Be careful when walking!"

The person who hurried over was Wu Xiaogua, Wu Xiaogua was in a hurry to find Zhan Qingxiao, and when he saw that he bumped into Zhan Qingyun, he hurriedly said apologetically: "I'm sorry, I'm sorry." ”

"It's you. Zhan Qingyun saw it clearly, and he didn't care about it at the moment.

Wu Xiaogua showed an embarrassed look on his face, and then the two of them staggered, and he walked towards Zhan Qingxiao.

"Is it done?" In the past few days, Wu Xiaogua has been busy arranging his identity for entering the periphery of the Flame Abyss, if it hadn't been completed or there was some problem, he would definitely not have come to Zhan Qingxiao.

"Uncle, the things you explained to the villain have been done, but"

"Just what?"

"It's just that this status is a bit humble, and you were really wronged in the past. Wu Xiaogua looked embarrassed, he could only do this.

"It doesn't matter, as long as you have an identity to be able to blend in. Zhan Qingxiao said indifferently.

-------------------------------------

As soon as the sky was bright, a tall mansion gate was closed, and there were more than a dozen demon clan soldiers with weapons standing at the door, and there were many soldiers patrolling the left and right of the mansion gate, which could be described as heavily guarded.

The crunch of wheels rattled and a dilapidated cart came to the gate, and it was a husband and wife who pushed it.

"Stop!" the leader of the demon clan soldiers in front of the gate of Nafu stopped them.

The weather has entered the cold winter, the sky is getting late, in this kind of cold night, few people will take the initiative to go out, because going out means to be with the cold. Except for the beggars and the poor who have to do a small business outside, who will go out in such weather.

On the street of Shenwu City, there were several people bustling, and an old man in a wide and thick cotton coat walked out of the city with a cane at the gate of the West City, followed by a graceful girl, this girl was wearing a blue brocade robe, which did not look thick, but the raging winter wind did not seem to make her shiver a little.

"Grandpa, the temperature has been getting lower and lower these days, why are you suddenly going out of the city when you are not at home?"

The old man looked outside the West City Gate and said, "Yunshan, grandpa is already old, I'm afraid time is running out." This time, I'll take you to meet a senior. ”

"Seniors, what kind of seniors, are you that old, and what do you think are seniors? How old do you have to be?" said the girl, chuckling, covering her mouth.

"Let's go, grandpa, this is also the news I just received, this senior is in a village outside Shenwu City at this time, and he will only stay for one day. So we've got to hurry. ”

These two are Jing Zhen and Jing Yunshan of Shenwu Academy.

The two men went out of the city gate and walked all the way west, and after more than an hour, they came to the outside of a dilapidated village.

"Grandpa, your village is so dilapidated, even the houses are in ruins, is it possible that someone will live here?" Jing Yun asked puzzled.

"Yun Shan, you have lived in the Shenwu Academy since you were a child, and you rarely go out. Naturally, I don't know the outside world, some people live at the bottom of this world, they don't know any cultivation, they can only farm, fish, chop wood, write to barely survive, and even winter comes without winter clothes to keep out the cold. They can only eat steamed buns that are as hard as stones for every gamble, and they live in dilapidated houses. Jing Zhen sighed and said.

"Isn't that like a beggar?"

"No, they are not beggars. Beggars beg with their own dignity and just want to live each day. And they have their own families, as well as parents and children. Although life is hard, the family is also happy. ”

As he spoke, a man in a long robe with several patches approached, rubbing his hands together as the cold wind blew down his thin clothes and made him shiver.

"What are you doing, two?" the man asked, shuddering over to them.

"Young man, may I ask if Mr. Deng Lijun and Mr. Deng are in your village?" Jing Zhen asked with a kind smile.

The man seemed to have suddenly realized, and said, "Oh, old man, are you here to see Mr. Deng for medical treatment? Mr. Deng and his apprentices and grandchildren are at Mrs. Xu in the north of the village. ”

"Hehe, young man, can you take us there?"

The man's face was embarrassed, then he hesitated for a while, and said, "Originally, I was going out of the village to buy grain, and the family was waiting for the rice to boil." However, if you come here, I will take you there, and I will not delay much time. ”

"Thank you!" give him some silver. ”

When Jing Yunshan heard this, she untied the money bag around her waist and prepared to take out the silver. The man hurriedly waved his hand and said, "You don't have to be so polite, it's just a gesture, since you are here to see Mr. Deng for medical treatment, our village is deeply favored by Mr. Deng, so naturally we can't take your money." ”

Jing Yunshan took out a small silver ingot, about two taels, and was about to hand it over

In the past, the man's head shook like a rattle, and he refused to answer it.

Jing Zhen saw that he insisted on refusing to accept it, so he said to Jing Yunshan: "That's it." ”

Jing Yunshan took the silver back, and a smile appeared on the man's face, and said, "That's right!

After walking for a while, the man led them to a slightly better-looking house, and then pointed to this house and said, "Old man, this is Mrs. Xu's home, Mr. Deng has been living here for the past few days, I won't go in, please take care of yourself." ”

Jing Zhen nodded slightly, then said with a smile: "Thank you." ”

"No thanks!" said the man, turning to leave.

"Grandpa, they are all poor like this, why don't I give him silver, but he doesn't want it? Isn't it too little? These two taels of silver can still buy a lot of things!" After the man left, Jing Yunshan asked very puzzled.

Jing Zhen looked at the direction in which the man left and said, "It's not that he dislikes the lack of silver, but this matter is indeed a gesture for him." In their minds, if he brought us here for silver, it would be a bargain, and if he didn't want silver, it would have been what they should have been, friendly and simple. These are some noble qualities that we people in the city don't have. ”

"Yun Shirt doesn't understand very much, where does this quality come from money?"

Jing Zhen smiled and said, "Okay, you'll understand later." Go knock!"

Jing Yunshan nodded incomprehensibly, and then knocked on the door.

"The door is not closed, come in!" heard a knock on the door, and a voice came from inside the room.

So Jing Zhen and Jing Yunshan pushed the door in, and after entering, there was a courtyard, there was a bluestone path in the middle of the yard, this path led directly to the main house from the gate, and on the left and right sides of the bluestone path were several vegetable fields, but it was winter, except for a few large radishes that had already been emptied, there were no fresh vegetables.

"Who are you?" asked a middle-aged man who looked at the grandfather and grandson who walked over.

"Let's look for Mr. Deng. Jing Zhen replied.

The man answered, and then said, "Mr. Deng is in the back hall, treating his mother, if the two of you are looking for Mr. Deng to see a doctor, why don't you go to the living room to rest for a while?"

Jing Zhen said: "We are not here to see a doctor, I met Mr. Deng, and I heard that his old man is in Lotus Village, so I came to visit. ”

When the middle-aged man heard him say that he knew Deng Lijun, he didn't dare to slack off, and hurriedly made a gesture of please, and then led the two into the back hall.

In Mrs. Xu's room in the back hall, there was a charcoal fire in the room, and the two who had just come in from outside obviously felt that the temperature in the room was much higher than outside. At this time, Xu Lao Taiping was lying on the bed, wearing a white underwear, with dozens of silver needles densely tied on his body, and on the edge of the bed sat an old man with a pure white beard, gently playing part of the silver needles, the silver vibrated and made an inaudible broken sound, and there was also an old man in Tsing Yi with white hair and a young man of seventeen or eighteen years old who were watching this scene intently.

"Grandpa, is this the senior you are talking about?" Jing Yunshan looked at this scene and walked inside, but was pulled by Jing Zhen.

Jing Zhen shook his head slightly and said, "Yunshan, don't go over to disturb Mr. Deng, wait here quietly." ”

Jing Yunshan stopped and looked at her grandfather in surprise, in her impression, grandfather had rarely been so polite to others. Just a few days ago, Grandpa was so respectful to the new one-star student of the Academy, and now he is so polite to this man who seems to be an ordinary doctor.

"Grandpa, this old gentleman looks like an ordinary doctor. The old lady was cold into her body, hurting her heart and lungs, so she should use Yan Wei Zhi and Xing Lingzhi to make a decoction, drink it for a month, and she can be cured. I knew this knowledge when I was ten years old, and he also used silver needles to seal acupuncture points, and the method of clearing the stream had little effect, and the medical skills were really not good!" Jing Yunshan said in a low voice.

"Shut up!" Jing Zhen rebuked in a low voice, looking a little angry.

Who knows, although Jing Yunshan's voice was very small, it was heard by the old man who practiced medicine, he turned his head, looked at her with a smile, and then beckoned and said, "Little girl, you are right, come here." ”

Jing Yunshan saw that what she whispered had been heard by the old man, and she was slightly embarrassed, after all, the old man was so old, and it was really inappropriate for him to arrange others like this. At the moment, his face was flushed, and he was embarrassed to step forward.

"Mr. Deng told you to come over! Why don't you go quickly?" Jing Zhen glanced at her and said, then faced Deng Lijun and said, "Mr. Deng, this is the granddaughter Yunshan, she is young and ignorant, I hope you understand." ”

The white-bearded old man Deng Lijun didn't seem to care, and said with a slight smile: "It's okay." And she wasn't wrong. ”

Jing Yunshan walked over, her head slightly bowed, and she didn't say a word.

"Yunshan, I ask you. What is the price of this Yan Weizhi and Star Lingzhi?" Deng Lijun looked at Jing Yunshan with a smile and asked.

Jing Yunshan is naturally clear about this question, she has been dealing with medicinal materials since she was a child, and she is naturally clear about the price of this medicinal material. So he raised his head and replied: "Yan Wei branch is a new branch bud on the crape myrtle wood after 99 days, picked, soaked in ice water, dried and made, because now the crape myrtle branch is very rare, so the price of the Yan Wei branch has increased a lot, and now a small section needs at least 1,000 taels of silver." The star lingzhi is also a very rare and valuable medicinal material, and its price is distinguished according to its quality, at least three thousand taels, and the highest quality star lingzhi is worth tens of thousands of taels. ”

"In other words, at least four thousand taels, right?" Deng Lijun asked.

Jing Yunshan nodded and replied, "Yes, this is still the worst, if it is the best, then it will be even more expensive." ”

"That's not it, drink it for a month and heal, at least 120,000 taels of silver. Look at it, how much silver can this family earn in a year?"

Jing Yunshan was stunned, she really hadn't considered this question, because she had never lacked silver flowers since she was a child, so the concept of silver was very vague, this family could live in a dilapidated village like Lotus Village, presumably not rich, right?

"And,

Have you noticed the muscles, veins, bones, and blood in her body?

Jing Yunshan hurriedly stepped forward to check Mrs. Xu's pulse, and when she put her hand on her pulse, she found that the pulse beat a little slower than that of a normal person. At first, she was just an old lady because she was old, and it was normal to be slower than normal people, but soon she felt that something was wrong. So, a trace of spiritual power flowed from her fingertips, and she closed her eyes and began to examine her meridians and bone blood.

She opened her eyes suddenly, her face changed, and she said tremblingly: "How can she still be alive if her eight veins are broken? Moreover, it is the rare blood of the Qilin, how can it be so abnormal?"

The blood of the unicorn is a special bloodline, and people with this bloodline generally do not live to be forty years old.

The eight veins of the body are broken, which means that a person has lost the trajectory of the blood veins following the muscles and bones, and will naturally be paralyzed and will not live long.

It is unheard of and unseen for these two situations to happen to the same person. So she naturally found it hard to imagine how such a person could still be alive.

"Why do you think she's still alive?" asked Deng Lijun as he looked at her with a smirk.

Jing Yunshan is not a fool, so she naturally knows that Mrs. Xu can live because of the role of the old man in front of her, so she put down her posture at once, and said respectfully: "The younger generation doesn't know." ”

"It's because of the old man's set of acupuncture methods, one acupuncture can save ten years of life. This is the third time that the old man has given her an injection. Deng Lijun said, and began to pull out the needles one by one.

"How's it going? Are you interested in learning?"

"Master, your Yin Yang Nine Lives Divine Needle has not yet been a disciple. When the old man who was watching heard Deng Lijun's words, his face was a little unhappy, and he said. And the young man behind him also looked at Deng Lijun expectantly.

"Nangong, you and Xiao Si are not suitable for practicing this set of acupuncture, so I can't teach you. Deng Lijun said lightly.

A look of disappointment flashed across the faces of the old and young men, and they bowed their heads and said no more.

"Do you want to teach this set of acupuncture techniques to the juniors?" Jing Yunshan's face showed a shocked look, she didn't know why this ordinary-looking medical master was willing to teach such a precious acupuncture method to herself, was it because of Jing Zhen? Thinking of this, she couldn't help but turn her gaze to Jing Zhen.

Jing Zhen naturally heard their conversation, so he stepped forward, saluted Deng Lijun, and then said, "Mr. Deng, are you really willing to accept Yunshan as an apprentice?"

"Well, I have a good eye for this kid. Moreover, in her life, there is a deep bond with that person. Think of it as selling him a favor. Deng Lijun nodded and said lightly.

"You see that?" Jing Zhen nodded, looking excited.

"I can see it, and besides, his wounds can help you heal. ”

After listening to his words, Jing Zhen sighed and said, "He can see at a glance that I am injured, but he didn't mention that there is a cure." ”

"It's just that he thinks that your relationship with him is not worth his help. ”

"Grandpa, what kind of dumb riddle are you playing, what kind of he, what is the healing method? Grandpa, your injury has not healed for so long, is there any other hidden secret?" Jing Yunshan listened to their conversation and smelled a hint of an unusual smell, but at the same time, she was confused, so she asked.

"Nothing. Jing Zhen didn't seem to have any intention of telling her.

Deng Lijun packed up his things, then looked at Jing Yunshan, and asked, "Yunshan, are you willing to worship me as a teacher?"

"I'm willing, I'm willing!" Jing Yunshan hurriedly replied, this old man's medical skills are so good, he is naturally very willing.

"Well, from now on, you will be my Deng Lijun's closed disciple. Come, let me introduce you to you, this is your third senior brother Nangong Jiu, this is his apprentice Chen Xiaosi, and he will also be your junior nephew in the future. You also have a senior brother and a senior sister who have never been with you and will be introduced to you when they have the opportunity. Deng Lijun smiled slightly and introduced the old man and the young man next to him.

"Yun Yi has seen the third senior brother. ”

"Xiao Si has seen Uncle Xiao. ”

"Little junior sister is polite, I really envy you for being able to practice Master's unpassed technique, Yin Yang Nine Lives Divine Needle. Nangong Jiu looked at her with envy on his face and said.

"The matter of Lotus Village is over, the teacher is going to the Tianqiong Mountain Range in the near future, Yun Yi will come with me, you master and apprentice will go to Shenwu City to find your second senior sister, don't follow me anymore." At this time, Deng Lijun said.

"Yes, Master. ”

"Xiao Si respects the master's order. ”

"Grandpa?" Jing Yunshan was stunned for a moment, and asked Jing Zhen tentatively. seems to be wondering if he was sold by his grandfather

"Yunshan, you should go into the mountain with your master first, grandpa said, you should still come out to see and see the outside world. Regarding Deng Lijun's arrangement, Jing Zhen did not have any objection.

"You go to the living room for dinner first, old man Jing, you come with me to my room, and we will talk about something." Deng Lijun said again.

So the people of the Xu family took them to the living room, and Deng Lijun and Jing Zhen also arrived in his room, and the two sat opposite each other.

"Old man Jing, what's the situation with that person now?" After putting down the things, Deng Lijun asked.

"I'm in a hurry to go to the inner courtyard, I can't help him, so I can only let him go in through the outer courtyard by himself. ”

"Is it for Zhang Shaohan's chess piece?" Deng Lijun frowned and asked.

"Well, after all, he was ordered by Emperor Feng, so he naturally fell into Zhang Shaohan's trap. ”

"I know, you don't do anything to interfere with him, whether I can return to the fairy world or not depends on him. Don't worry, he's a man with clear grievances, and he'll help you get rid of the nightmare sooner or later. ”

"Mr. Deng, what else do you command?"

"It's almost the New Year, isn't it? On this day of the Lantern Festival, it will be a bloodless battle, we probably won't be hiding for long, right?"
