Chapter Seventy-Five: A Double Mission
Just a year ago, Chenfanjian, the largest, the largest and the most branches in the south, also opened a branch in the industrial city. All of a sudden, the business model of the tavern in front and the inn in the back crushed most of the other inns and taverns, but fortunately, the mortal stream was big enough, and those who wanted to drink and feast and live in the hotel could always find a place here.
The dusty stream can be regarded as the most mixed in the industrial city, and it is also the safest and safest place. Different courtyards meet the needs of different guests, different rooms meet the requirements of different drinkers, and different grades meet the demands of customers at different levels, which easily demonstrates the power of the mortal stream itself that cannot be underestimated.
There is no doubt that the mortal stream is the inevitable place where the two missions choose to settle down, and it is also the place where Azule and the other three people directly stay.
The three of them had a simple division of labor. Leaving the distance to contact the inner circle to determine the follow-up connection and other matters, Qing Zhuo went to the secret base of the Trap Hall to find out the news of his parents, and Azule also told the other two that he would go alone to meet the two old friends.
It happened to be close to noon, and this time was usually when Yao Xiucai from Li Ji Teahouse was telling stories, so he would definitely not be disturbed. Anyway, when Master Xiao confessed, he also said that as long as he found anyone between Yao Xiucai or Divine Doctor Li, it would be fine. Therefore, Azule decided to try his luck at the Jishitang Medical Center first, maybe "Li Huatuo" was in a bad mood today and did not go out for medical treatment.
The road from the mortal stream to the Jishitang Medical Center is all too familiar, after all, Azule has lived here for nearly three years, and most of them still run to the medical center every day for most of them.
When Azule came to the medical center, he naturally touched the scene. The medical hall is still the same, there is no doctor sitting in the hall, only one guy grabs medicine. Azule didn't know the newcomer, so he didn't say hello and went straight to the back hall. Maybe the young man seems to be so familiar with people, and after glancing at it, he didn't stop it.
At this time, Doctor Li must still be drinking tea in the main hall while closing his eyes and recuperating.
When Azule came to the main hall, his estimate was very correct, and Doctor Li was closing his eyes and recuperating. Azule quietly stepped forward, saluted, and asked in a low voice, "Is the master still in good health lately?"
Although the voice of greeting was small, it made Doctor Li bounce up directly from the recliner.
"Why did you come back? Remember to come to see me? Oh, I haven't seen you for two years, I've grown a lot taller, but nothing has changed. Divine Doctor Li laughed a few times, looked at Azule carefully, and sat back as he spoke.
"The kid was in a hurry to escape, for fear of affecting the master, so he didn't say hello, and he didn't come back to visit you. Azule said slowly, observing etiquette.
"The master's habit hasn't changed at all, there is no sitting in the front hall, you must be drinking tea in the back, you are so leisurely. Azul quipped again.
"How about it, you have nothing to do but go to the Three Treasures Palace, if you have something to say, you will leave if you have nothing to do, and you will see me anyway. Doctor Li took a sip of tea, lay back in his chair and said.
"Of course there is something, I haven't been in Gongcheng for the past two years, and I finally came back, there must be something. Someone brings you two sentences. Azul said in a deep voice as he pulled over a nearby chair and sat down.
"Oh, bring me two sentences! Then you say those two sentences first, see if I can guess who this person is, and if I can't guess, you can help me answer the answer. Doctor Li became more and more curious, straightened up from the chair where he was lying down, and looked at Azule with teasing eyes.
"Master, anyway, I'm just a talker, so I'll just say it as it is. The first sentence is to ask who will pay for the words between you and Yao Bowen in the end?"
But when Doctor Li heard the three words "that pair of words", he had already jumped up before he even heard the last few words, his face was full of shock, his face was red and black, and even his lips couldn't stop beating, and a lot of words jumped to his mouth, but he couldn't bear to say it.
Although Azule didn't know what it meant, he was not surprised at all, he knew very well that what Xiao Shi asked him to ask must be full of deep meaning.
Doctor Li obviously struggled a few times, and then stopped, his eyes were also bright for a while, listless for a while, and gradually fell silent for a long time.
"Go ahead and say the second sentence. Doctor Li's voice was very kind, as if he had made great efforts to say this.
"Okay, master. The second sentence is to say, 'He has found the heir of the jade pendant'. Azul still relayed the sentence in a very flat tone.
Compared with the excitement just now, as soon as this sentence was finished, the expression and attitude of Doctor Li before and after the sentence were completely opposite. If the sentence just now showed excitement and surprise, it seems that the sentence has not played a role.
Azule didn't rush Doctor Li either, just sat there quietly, silent for a long time, and there was no expression on his face at all.
"Are you just talking, or do you know something?" Doctor Li asked as if he had made a final decision, glaring at Azule with his eyes, and word by word.
"I'm a talker, but I'm not a random pick. Azul replied very cleverly, as if he had answered, but as if he had said nothing.
"That's right, if you don't know, you just need to bring a letter, not in person. What is the surname of the person who asked you to speak? Ou, Xiao, Fan, An, or Mu?" asked Doctor Li again, this time very calmly.
"The surname is Xiao. Azule replied in the affirmative.
"Good, good, good! gave me hope, gave me direction, but seventeen years have passed, and everything has become different. Doctor Li changed his eyes to a reminiscing look again, as if he had returned to the seventeen years ago mentioned in the words.
"Azule, what is your relationship with the person surnamed Xiao? In fact, whether you know the meaning behind these two sentences or not, you are already involved. Since the surname Xiao knows that you have studied in this medical hall for a year and a half, it is only natural for you to ask you to spread the word. But since I ask you to spread the word, you must be implicated in this. I'm also half your master, so it's okay to say anything. Doctor Li seemed to be talking to himself, and as if he was reasoning, in a few words, he had already touched the identity of Asule.
"Master, I won't hide it from you. The one surnamed Xiao has taken me as an apprentice, and in addition, the jade pendant is also what I wear with me all the time. Azule didn't want to go around in circles anymore, so he made it clear.
"Take out the jade pendant and I'll take a look. Doctor Li asked closely.
Azule did not shirk, took out the jade pendant and handed it to Doctor Li.
Although Doctor Li pretended to be calm, his hands were obviously trembling, and he changed his arrogant expression, solemnly and respectfully took the jade pendant, looked at it carefully, and turned over and over the front and back before returning Azule seriously for a long time.
"I've always known about the existence of this jade pendant, but I didn't have the opportunity to watch and play with it like this before. It's been seventeen years, and the old guys are going to come together again by mistake, it's really tricky. Asoule, what's the next arrangement?" asked Doctor Li as he laughed at himself.
"Master Xiao asked you to prepare, just in the past two years. Azul said.
"You tell the surname Xiao, I decided to let Yao Bowen settle the payment, and I will forward it to you after I write it. Doctor Li muttered to himself as he got up and went to the inner room.
Azul heard some of the meanings of the words, but he didn't have time to think further, so the hour was almost up, and he and Qing Zhuo were going to meet a key person who would have a key to the success of the mission.
