Thinking of this, Chu Tianshu glanced at a middle-aged man in the crowd.

The middle-aged man immediately understood and disappeared silently into the crowd.

Having finished his business, Wang Wu decided not to linger and prepared to return directly to Qingyuan County.

Along the way, Wang Wu discovered that Jiangyang City, which originally had few refugees, now had quite a few people. Judging from their clothing, they should have come from the north. The north has always been chaotic, but it seems that no one has ever been able to escape for many years.

The more refugees a dynasty has, the more chaotic it becomes, which is definitely not a good thing.

Just as Wang Wu and the others were leaving the city, a middle-aged man suddenly stopped them. "Dear friends, I have something I'd like to discuss with you all. I wonder if you could give me a little time?"

Wang Wu said with some caution, "We don't have much time. If you really have something to say, please do so as soon as possible."

Wang Wu remembered that Ning Ye had offended not only a young master surnamed Su in Jiangyang City, but also had some grudges against this young master. He wondered about the background of this middle-aged man and decided to be careful.

The middle-aged man smiled slightly, "Don't worry, I'm not a person with ill intentions. I'm just very interested in the military rations you've brought out. I wonder if you could hand over the method for making these rations?"

Wang Wu's face showed some displeasure. "Sir, what you're saying is already going too far. Every skill we have is our lifeline. You think you can just take it as you please?"

The middle-aged man stood with his hands behind his back. "I am Wenren Feng, a disciple of Prince Jingyang. It is not that I want it, but that our prince wants it. For people like you, this is already a great favor. Don't be ungrateful and hand it over obediently."

“Even a prince cannot seize by force. If the prince wants to do business with us, we are naturally welcome. But if the prince wants to do things this way, we will never agree to it.”

Wenren Feng still had a smile on his face, "I am really thinking about you and your employer. If you insist on going your own way, I'm afraid you will regret it."

Wang Wu said calmly, "Thank you for your favor, Your Highness, but we are not worthy of such kindness. If you have nothing else to do, please make way for us to leave."

At this point, Wenren Feng finally lost his temper. "Do you know what you're saying? Do you know that what you're saying today could very well bring you utter destruction?"

"I only know that even a prince cannot arbitrarily seize other people's things. If there are no rules at all, then what kind of person is he?"

After saying that, Wang Wu was about to leave with his men. Wenren Feng hadn't brought anyone with him this time, so he couldn't stop Wang Wu. Besides, a scholar like him wouldn't use such a brutal method.

Even though he couldn't see the deep malice hidden in his eyes, Wang Wu still felt a chill run down his spine.

That same day, Wang Wu led his men back to Qingyuan County, while Ning Ye's panacea was delivered to Wang Mingyuan.

Regardless of whether this thing is useful now, Ning Ye is well aware that it will definitely be of great use in the future. He exchanged 100,000 for it the first time, and that amount is already enough for now.

Looking at the boxes and boxes of universal antidote pills laid out in front of you, Wang Mingyuan didn't know what to say, since there were just too many of them.

Lin Changhe chuckled and said, "This kid really has some good stuff hidden away. All the medicines here look exactly the same. Which family could afford to do this?"

Wang Mingyuan shook his head and sighed, "This little guy bought a large batch of medicinal herbs before, which were purchased from various different places. I suppose he made this stuff himself."

"This little guy is bringing more and more surprises. I never expected him to even know medicine. Have you really found out? Is this little guy's family just an ordinary one?"

Wang Mingyuan said irritably, "If you don't believe me, go check it yourself. Anyway, this is all I found out. Do you really think there could be any secrets under my nose?"

"You're right. If we could really keep it from you, there would be no need for us to stay here. It seems that this little guy must have had a little-known experience, otherwise how could he be so outstanding?"

"I've heard that there are ancient legends about immortals imparting knowledge and teachings in dreams. Maybe there really is such a wonderful encounter. After all, I really can't think of any other explanation besides this one."

Lin Changhe burst into laughter, "I can't believe you actually said such a thing! I couldn't help it, I really couldn't help it."

Wang Mingyuan said with a slightly displeased expression, "All you do is laugh here. You didn't do a single thing I asked you to do well, and you still have the nerve to laugh at me?"

Lin Changhe's smile vanished abruptly. "Hey, I don't know how this kid Ning got so bold. Two consecutive robberies and killings, taking over a hundred lives. Both times he acted decisively. I like it."

“Killing is a means, and it can be used frequently here, but it would be a big taboo in other places. He is still young, and I am afraid that he will go astray.”

"Don't worry, I don't think so. This kid should know what he's doing. Our worries might be a bit unnecessary."

As the two were talking, Xu Sanguan came in. "Sir, that medicine is very effective. I found a patient to take it and he has improved a lot since then. It seems that it is not a simple illness."

Wang Mingyuan's face had darkened. "I underestimated these people. They still have no intention of letting me go. The investigation a while ago found that the Bai family had been here before the outbreak of the plague."

Lin Changhe said nonchalantly, "I've said it before, these people only ever want to kill people. It's impossible to get them to stop."

"But I still can't understand why I would do something like this when I should no longer pose any danger to them."

Lin Changhe pointed out incisively, "Your relationship with the Prince of Huai'an is the biggest problem. Even if you don't have the intention, these people are still very afraid that after you meet the Prince of Huai'an, everything will change again."

Wang Mingyuan clenched his fist tightly in his sleeve and did not continue the conversation on this topic.
