Chapter 40: A Strange Case on the Road (Part II)

The sky is getting dark, after they finish dinner, Yuhan and Tianlang go back to their rooms to rest, Yuhan habitually calms down, sits cross-legged on the bed, rests his hands on his knees, and begins to breathe and practice qi, ears and eyes, eyes and nose, nose and mouth, mouth and heart, inhale aura, air flow in the acupuncture points around the body, a round down, suddenly feel that the breath is more and more smooth, and the spirit is very good. It turned out that self-cultivation and qi refining were so good for people who practiced martial arts, and they didn't want to sleep for a while, so they drank a cup of warm tea.

Yuhan wanted to breathe outside the door, so he pushed open the door, the night was already deep, the faint moonlight shone on the roof tiles, a white light, the courtyard of the inn was very quiet, and people had already fallen asleep. Only the small insects were "buzzing", and although the weather was still very cold, the thriving scene of spring had already been revealed, the grass was slightly green, and new shoots were drawn from the branches.

Yuhan suddenly found that the light was still on in Tianlang's room next door, she shook her head, Tianlang is very diligent, and must be meditating and self-cultivation. She took a deep breath and prepared to return to her room. A gust of night wind blew, and she snorted. The door was blown open, and after waiting for a while, the half-open door was still not closed. Yuhan wondered in his heart, could it be that he fell asleep while practicing.

She walked over slowly and called softly, "Tianlang, Tianlang, your door is blown open by the wind, close it quickly, or it will not be easy to catch a cold." ”

No one answered, she knocked on the door, but still no one responded, Yuhan was shocked, could it be that something happened to Tianlang.

She flashed into the room, which was empty, a lone lamp flickering in the night breeze. Yuhan snorted softly: "Oh no", she closed the door and swept towards the outside of the courtyard.

In a century-old pharmacy on the street, Dr. Xue Yaoshan and two medicine boys in Xuejiaji Pharmacy were nervously preparing medicine in the counter to the medical box. He had just received the news that a pregnant woman had a difficult birth, and was about to rush over to save people, and the two medicine boys were grabbing the medicine according to his request and putting it in the medical box.

Suddenly, a young man in black walked in at the door, standing against the door frame, his face was gloomy, and he didn't say a word. Doctor Xue smiled and said, "Zhuangshi, do you have anything to do? Do you need to buy medicine? Let him prepare it for you, I have something urgent to go out, so I will leave first." He gestured to one of the older boys.

The young man didn't look at the medicine boy, just stared at him, and asked in a low voice, "Are you the medicine mountain?"

"Exactly, may I ask your Excellency?"

"I found you, you relied on the power of Kunlong Palace to oppress the people, relying on medicine for huge profits, today it fell into my hands, how can I spare you, how do you want to die, do you want to cut it yourself? Or do I do it?"

"Zhuangman, I have always been above board, I have never done what you said, of course you want to take my life, can you have a discussion? Let me go and save a pregnant woman first, if you need money, all the money and things here can be given to you, or you can go with me, and then you will deal with it after saving people, what do you think?"

"Don't think about it, don't pretend to be so kind, too righteous, I can let you go, put away this fake trick, take your life. The young man pulled out his waist knife and slashed at Doctor Xue, and the two medicine boys saw that they were busy stepping forward to block it, and shouted, "Master, go quickly." ”

The two teenagers had nothing in their hands, but they pounced directly regardless of their own safety, but they were not martial arts practitioners, and they were slashed to the ground by the young man on the left and right.

Doctor Xue just rushed to the door, the young man chased out and stabbed him in the back, which immediately penetrated the front of the heart, the young man pulled out the knife suddenly, blood splashed everywhere, Doctor Xu's eyes widened, raised his hand to point at the young man, and spit out a few words in his mouth: "You, why are you ......" The corpse slowly fell to the ground.

At this time, a guy leaned out of the back door, and when he saw this scene, he was so frightened that the basin containing medicine slipped from his hand and fell to the ground, turned around and hurriedly ran to the backyard, and kept shouting: "It's not good, it's not good, Doctor Xue has been killed." The young man looked, and instead of chasing into the backyard, he turned and hurried away.

From the shadow of the opposite corner, a black-haired and black-clad masked woman turned out, holding a long sword, and the moonlight dragged her figure to the elder, she hurried to the front of the pharmacy, kicked Dr. Xue's body with her foot, and quickly entered through the back door.

When Yuhan arrived at the Xue Jiaji Medicine Shop, she saw Dr. Xue lying on the threshold, and she tried his breathing with her hand, but it had already stopped.

There were still two teenagers lying in front of the counter, two medicine boys, who had also died of anger, her black eyes were full of awe, and she cursed in her heart: "Damn." ”

The back door was ajar, too, and she had a sense of foreboding. She walked into the backyard, it was pitch black and gloomy, and the smell of blood made Yuhan feel sick to her stomach, she pulled out the rainbow sword, polished the fire folds, and slowly walked inside.

There were seven or eight corpses lying in the backyard, blood spilling all over the ground, and Yuhan asked in a low voice, "Is there anyone?"

It was dead silent, and suddenly there was a faint sound in the darkness, and Yuhan shouted, "Who? After a moment of silence, a black cat came out of the darkness, and Yuhan let out a breath of turbidity, so he had to leave the door of the medicine shop and go straight back to the inn.

There was no light in the room, and there was silence in the inn. Yuhan's heart was uncomfortable, and she suppressed her anger and walked back to her room angrily.

The next day, at dawn, the inn lobby was noisy, Yuhan came to the lobby alone, there were many people eating breakfast, she found a remote corner, asked for a bowl of porridge and a fritter, just sat down, Tianlang also came, sat down opposite Yuhan, and said with a smile: "Yuhan, eat breakfast, why don't you call me." ”

Yuhan didn't look at him, and ate to himself.

The two at the next table were talking. One of the middle-aged people asked, "Hey, Zhang San, everyone is saying that there was a big incident in Longtan Town last night." DID YOU KNOW THAT?"

"Are you talking about the Xue family's medicine shop?"

"Isn't it, Dr. Xue was killed in the store. ”

"Yesterday when you passed by the street during the day, did you see it? Isn't there a woman crying and complaining about grievances? Is it a small family that has been bullied by this doctor and wants to die? The man opposite said while eating steamed buns.

"So, this murderer must be a chivalrous warrior who acts bravely?"

Tianlang showed a smug look on his face, and looked at Yuhan, who lowered his head and ate without saying a word.

"I heard that this Xue Jia Ji Pharmacy is the number of Kunlong Palace in Longtan Town, and it is also close to Kunshan, so they will definitely send someone to investigate. ”

"Then this righteous man may be in trouble, belch, Kunlong Palace is not easy to mess with!"

Xiao Er happened to send noodles over, and when he heard the discussion between the two of them, he interjected: "Guest officer, you are outsiders, aren't you what you said?"

"Oh, what's going on?" the man named Zhang San hurriedly asked.

Xiao Er said: "Doctor Xue is a good person, known as Xue Bodhisattva, Xue Divine Doctor, he saved the dead and helped countless people in the town, Xue Jia Ji Medicine Shop is Kunlong Palace, is set up in Longtan Town's aid station! ”

"That's the case, how can it be completely different from what we listen to?" the middle-aged man was stunned.

A smile froze instantly on his face.

Xiao Er continued: "Originally, last night, the Divine Doctor Xue rushed to save the mother-in-law of the King of the West Head of the Town, she had a difficult birth, and her life was on the first line, waiting for the Divine Doctor Xue to save her life." However, the pregnant woman could not wait for the arrival of the divine doctor, and the women and children unfortunately all died in bed, which was unbearable! What was even more infuriating was that all the men and servants in the pharmacy were also killed, was this the work of a righteous man? ”

"Ahh

"Oh, I heard that a young man was rescued in the morning, and he has been spontaneously carried to Kunlong Palace by the people of the town. A little brother at the next table interjected.

Tianlang's face turned pale at this time, and he lowered his lips: "Xiao Er." ”

Xiao Er hurriedly walked over: "Guest officer, what do you need?"

"Let me ask you, what you just said is true?" A cold aura emanated from Tianlang's body, and his face was extremely gloomy.

Xiao Er shuddered, nodded and said, "It's true, I don't believe you can walk around the streets of the town casually now, see the situation, and ask a local, you will believe it." ”

Tianlang nodded, turned around, and a gust of wind seemed to disappear in front of the door, startling Xiao Er on the spot.

Yuhan put the money on the table, greeted Xiao Er, and hurriedly walked out of the inn.

In front of the Xuejiaji medicine shop, there were people gathered, some people from the government were cleaning up the scene, some passers-by from other places were watching, and more were many local people, old and young, some kneeling on the ground and burning paper money, and some wiping tears on the side.

Suddenly, a man cried loudly: "Doctor Xu, Engong! You have saved so many people since you came to town, but you have come to such a tragic end, good people are not rewarded, what is the reason, it was you who saved my life, I will definitely give up this life to avenge you." ”

As soon as this person's words came out, more than a dozen strong men immediately shouted, "We too, we must avenge Doctor Xue and find out this murderous maniac." ”

Tianlang, who was standing on the edge of the wall, was so good that he almost fell to the ground, he slowly turned his body, walked back slowly, glanced at Yuhan behind him, paused for a moment, and suddenly, ran away.

Yuhan didn't chase him, but approached the crowd and watched the officials carry out the corpses in the courtyard and shop one by one. The grief and indignation of the common people, the sighs of the onlookers.

Instead, her mood calmed down, and she thought to herself: this is a trap, someone is taking advantage of it.
