Yuanxi City

The morning sun pierces through the clouds, the sky is as blue as a wash, the vendors are busy taking care of their own livelihoods, and the merchants from other places are still shuttling through the streets and alleys, and no one seems to care that there are a few fewer refugees and beggars on the corner of the road.

Passing through the slightly lively street, walking through a small road, and coming to a fairly quiet alley, the quaint hall comes into view, and the plaque above the gate is inscribed with the four words 'Changyi Medicine Hall'. On both sides of the door is inscribed a couplet: I wish the people in the world are free of disease, and would rather put medicine on the shelf to produce dust;

Wu Shen was familiar with every word on the couplet, thinking about the situation in the world, and then looking at the small door leading to the medicine hall, recalling the 'uninvited guest' who came early in the morning, and finally sighed deeply.

A comfortable bedroom with sunlight slanting in through the window and in the wardrobe. Ground. A man in a dark blue shirt stood by the window looking out at the quiet backyard, motionless like a stone sculpture, leaving only a long shadow on the ground.

On the soft collapse, Xu Zining finally broke through the darkness and slowly opened his eyes, he didn't know how long he had been asleep, let alone the passage of time, and he couldn't even remember why he was lying on the bed so weakly. I only felt that the light in the room was dazzling and the smell of medicine was tangy.

He raised his hand slightly, wanting to rub his drowsy and aching head, but who knew that just such a slight movement brought a dull suffocating feeling in his chest, and a thin layer of sweat instantly covered his forehead.

The person by the window tilted his head slightly, "Awake?" The calm tone did not reveal the slightest emotion.

Xu Zining was slightly stunned, his head was still groggy, and he couldn't identify who was talking to him for a while, he didn't reply, he opened his eyes and looked deeply, looking at the direction where the voice came from, his eyes straightened.

The man didn't rush over to check Xu Zining's physical condition, but patiently waited for him to come back to his senses, Xu Zining opened his pale lips and tried to make a hoarse voice, "What's wrong with me?"

The man was still in a slightly sideways posture, "It's nothing, you just had a fight, avenged your father and mother, and then walked in front of the Hades Palace." The voice was low, and there was a bit of sadness hidden in it.

Xu Zining stiffened when he listened, and thought for a long time before he slowly recalled what happened in the exotic mansion in Luoxi Village, Xiyuan Town, they took that stronghold, and he did not hesitate to kill Shi Yixiong with his life, and then he fell unconscious, and then woke up and lay on the bed like this, but what seemed to have happened before he fell unconscious.

Xu Zining frowned and tried to recall again, and after a few breaths, he finally remembered, Qingyun! Qingyun was robbed by Li Shijie Su Kexin, and he didn't know where he was!

Xu Zining sat up suddenly, the dullness in his chest became more and more intense, Xu Zining covered his chest and kept panting, coughed a few more times, the person who said sighed slightly, walked to the table and poured a glass of water and handed it over.

Water poured into his throat, Xu Zining slowly eased up, and everything in front of him gradually became clear, "Thank you......"

Before the words fell, Xu Zining's eyes widened suddenly, the person who handed the water was the solemn elder Hai Yi, Hai Yi frowned slightly, his eyebrows were deep, "What's the matter?

Xu Zining looked at it in a daze for a while, put down the water bowl and wanted to get up to salute, but was held down by Haiyi, "Okay, how is your body, don't you know?"

Xu Zining frowned, his mind was full of Qingyun now, and he didn't care how injured he was, "Elder, the disciple is fine, it's just that Qingyun ...... him"

"We already know about Qingyun, and the head has also sent other secret guards to continue to investigate, but you, in order to take revenge, almost exhausted your internal strength, when you came down the mountain, did you forget everything your ancestor told you?!"

Xu Zining's eyes tightened, he remembered that the day before he went down the mountain, Ouyang Tian had summoned him to Jingzhuxuan for a conversation, and the meaning of the words was: forget hatred and focus on the overall situation. The promise is simple, but in the face of the murderer, he still can't control himself.

He suddenly thought of a serious problem, if he didn't give Shi Yixiong the final fatal blow at that time, maybe Shi Yixiong would live to tell the secret he knew, the whereabouts of Qingyun, and there would be some clues, but now because of impulse, he personally cut off an important clue, Xu Zining regretted it.

After coming back to his senses, Xu Zining asked, "Elder, why are you ......" Before he finished speaking, he was forced back by Haiyi's deep gaze, and Xu Zining shut up in disagreement.

Haiyi still told him, "On the orders of the old master and the master, I will bring you back to the mountain safely." ”

Xu Zining was taken aback, "What?"

Hai Yi ignored his distraction, and continued, "The old master spoke, and when you are better, you will leave and return immediately, and after returning to the mountain, you will be sent directly to Jingzhuxuan to recuperate." ”

When Jing Zhuxuan was mentioned, he couldn't help but think of Ouyang Tian's majestic look and eagle-like eyes, besides, in order to let him return to the mountain, he did not hesitate to send a high-ranking elder.

Xu Zining gasped, "The matter of the drug production base has not yet been completely completed, Qingyun has not yet been found, and there are still two children, Xiao Liuzi and Xiao Wu, who have not yet settled." Elder, the disciple is really not at ease. ”

"As I said, the head of Qingyun's whereabouts has sent other secret guards to continue to investigate, and as for those two children, they will stay in Changyi Medicine Hall as a medicine boy for the time being. When Hai Yi arrived, he had been secretly observing the two children, and found that they had a great interest in herbal medicine, so he decided to leave them here.

"Uncle Lu... After all, the disciple is with Uncle Lu, and the disciple goes back to the mountain first, and he always has to say hello. Xu Zining exhaled deeply and made a final struggle.

Hai Yi frowned slightly, looking at Xu Zining's energy, he really looked like Xu Yiping, "Your Uncle Lu has been urgently recalled back to the mountain by the old master, and I was also sent by the old master to take you back to the mountain." ”

Xu Zining shook suddenly, there was no need to say too clearly, the orders of the old master and the master in charge could not be disobeyed, he gave up all his efforts and lowered his head slightly, "Disciple obeys." ”

Six days later, Xu Zining followed Haiyi into the carriage back to the mountain, Wu Shen prepared enough medicine for him along the way, Shi Yu set up the carriage, the horse's hooves kicked up the dust, and ran out of the city.

In the early morning of the next day, Li Zifeng and his entourage came to the Changyi Medicine Hall in Yuanxi City, and secretly met with Elder Ning Xiang Wu Shen, in the secret room in the backyard of the medicine hall, Shen Zhiping and Li Zifeng sat facing Wu Shen.

When he was in Weijiazhuang, Piaoyun inquired about a news that made Li Zifeng's heart ache, Qingyun was kidnapped by Li Shijie, his whereabouts are unknown, Xu Zining was seriously injured and unconscious, and he was sent to Yuanxi City to recuperate. So they immediately thought of the branch hall located in Yuanxi City, Changyi Medicine Hall.

I had already heard that Elder Ning was a good hand at finding out the news around Wei'an City, and after Li Zifeng and Shen Zhiping discussed, they left here, first, to find out the whereabouts of Li Shijie and Qingyun, but some things were complicated to implicate Wei'an City, so they appeared here.

After the greetings, Wu Shen kept staring at Li Zifeng, the last time he saw Li Zifeng, Li Zifeng was still a fifteen or sixteen-year-old boy, high-spirited and quite high-spirited. But now, even through the black cloth covering the eyes, it is not difficult to see the vicissitudes and haggard on the face.

Wu Shen poured two cups of hot tea and handed them over, "Zining just left me yesterday and set off for the mountain." ”

Li Zifeng touched the teacup and took a sip, and there was no emotion in his tone, "Zining is seriously injured and has just recovered, so he can't have too much physical exertion, and he should go back to the mountain to recuperate." ”

Wu Shen sighed, "When he was unconscious, I often checked his pulse, and once I heard him keep calling you, saying that he was sorry for you and didn't take care of Qingyun. ”

Li Zifeng shook his head helplessly, this junior brother, he can't understand it anymore, his heart is too heavy, he likes to drill the tip of the horns, and he will definitely enlighten him well in the future, Li Zifeng said, "The disciple heard that Qingyun was favored by Li Shijie, so there should be no danger for the time being." ”

Li Zifeng sighed silently in his heart, hoping that Li Shijie still had a trace of conscience and let go of Qingyun.

Shen Zhiping's expression was solemn, "In the past few days when we have been outside, we have found some clues, and almost all of them involve the prince of Wei'an City and Hongyuan Villa. ”

Wu Shen looked at Shen Zhiping, "So, you are here to inquire about some of the situation in Wei'an City from me?"

Li Zifeng nodded.

Wu Shenhuan looked at Li Zifeng meaningfully and said, "I should come, I can't hide from it, I overheard it a few days ago, saying that the Tianhe Teahouse in Wei'an City has been moving frequently recently..."Wu Shen paused, "Li Muyang has arrived in Wei'an City six days ago and stayed at the Tianhe Teahouse. ”

Li Zifeng frowned.
