Then Qian Jue saw his master turn around and go into the pharmacy, open the lid of the wine jar, and pour the wine all over the pharmacy. After pouring several jars of wine, he set fire to it, and then he and Qian Jue sat on the mechanical bird.
"Master, sit tight."
As the flames rose, the mechanical bird disappeared at the door of the pharmacy and flew down the mountain.
When Lou Qing noticed this side, the fire had already illuminated half the sky.
He angrily scolded his subordinate who was still standing there, "What are you standing there for? Why don't you go and call for help?"
The subordinate left in response, and when he looked up again, the strange object in the sky had disappeared.
"Did I see it wrong?"
After muttering to himself, he quickly went to wake up his men to come and put out the fire.
Unfortunately, the fire was too big and the water poured on it was like mud falling into the sea, and it had no effect at all.
Fortunately, there were no other buildings around the pharmacy, so they could not put out the fire and could only watch the fire burn everything that could be burned and then stop on its own.
The flames died down, and thick smoke drifted into the air. Lou Qing looked at the devastation before him and gritted his teeth, "Where are the two people who were watching Qian Zhong? Are they both dead?"
He had worked so hard to collect the medicinal herbs and spent so much money on them, but now, they were all gone.
"Young Master, calm down. I didn't see them. Please wait a moment. I'll go in and take a look."
Lou Qing waved his hands, his expression did not improve, and he waited for the result with a sullen face.
Soon, the subordinate who went in came out with a pale face.
"Master, both of them are dead."
"Dead?"
Lou Qing's face showed a ferocious look, and he ordered the people behind him, "Quick, go and carry the person out."
The fire came out of strange circumstances, and now hearing that two people had died, Lou Qing narrowed his eyes, remembering Qian Zhong asking for wine during the day, and he had the answer in his mind.
Qian Zhong, it must be that old guy Qian Zhong.
The weather is already dry, and with the wine he poured, it's no wonder the fire started so quickly.
While he was thinking, three bodies were already in front of him.
"Master, they have all been carried out, but there is another body whose owner is unclear."
Lou Qing glanced at the three charred bodies on the ground and said expressionlessly:
"Yes, Mr. Chen. The fire was set by that old man Qian Zhong. Now give orders and have your men search for Qian Zhong's whereabouts."
Many people don’t know how to turn on and off the suspension bridge. Old man Qian Zhong thought he could go down the mountain just by going out. He was so naive.
Now that Old Chen is dead, he must bring Qian Zhong back to continue training his special forces.
"Now go and search carefully for Qian Zhong's whereabouts."
…
The search was in full swing here, but little did they know that Qian Zhong had already been taken to the tent of Yu Yiluo and his group by Qian Jue.
"We're back."
Qian Jue controlled the mechanical bird to descend and said to the people gathered around the campfire with a smile.
"Master, are you okay?"
Mu Xue stood up and walked towards Qian Zhong with concern.
"I'm fine."
Divine Doctor Qian greeted Concubine Xian and Concubine Shu, then sat down on the ground. "If that old bastard Min Qiu hadn't tricked me, I wouldn't have fallen into their hands. When I see him, I'm going to torture him."
"General Jin is fine, that's great."
Qian Zhong, who was originally angry, saw Jin Ting'an coming over, and the anger on his face was replaced by surprise.
"It's okay, I'm sorry to have worried the doctor."
"That brat Lou Qing must have thought you were still in their hands, but he didn't know you had been rescued."
"Who is Lou Qing?"
The third prince heard this name for the first time, and it was the same surname as his mother's, so he couldn't help but feel curious.
"It's that old man Min Qiu who aided and abetted the tyrant. I don't know what his relationship with Min Qiu is."
He was locked in a secret room all day long and only recently came out to get some information. He had no idea what the relationship between the two was.
"Let's not talk about this for now. What is this thing of yours?"
Qian Zhong pointed at the mechanical bird not far away, like a curious baby.
Qian Jue briefly introduced the purpose to him and handed him the food.
"That's amazing," Qian Zhong said with a bright smile, "Those bastards are probably still looking for me now."
Mu Xue was a little amused and felt that her master was so angry that he started cursing.
"Does Doctor Qian know where the person in charge of the Yueqing Gold Mine is being held?"
Li Yunhe, who had been silent for a long time, suddenly asked.
"General Jin, don't you know?"
Qian Zhong looked at Jin Ting'an in surprise, and Jin Ting'an looked confused.
Isn’t Li Yunhe investigating this matter? How would he know?
"Among those who ambushed you were the two managers of the Yueqing Gold Mine. Sadly, they are both dead."
"Doctor Qian is saying that among those monster-like people is the Yueqing prefect and my confidant Jin Ming?"
"Yes, they were caught earlier than me. When I arrived, they had already been drugged and looked like neither human nor ghost."
As soon as these words were spoken, the smile on Jin Ting'an's face disappeared. He thought that Jin Ming had died before, so the accident happened in Yueqing Gold Mine. But now Qian Zhong told him that Jin Ming died after seeing him.
He suddenly recalled that among the group of strange soldiers that day, there was one who was familiar with his moves when fighting with him.
He didn't care at the time, but now he thinks that person must be Jin Ming.
"General Jin, don't be too sad. Their death is actually a relief."
The old man surnamed Chen gave these people a strong drug so that they didn't feel pain or fatigue during the battle.
But they are still mortals. If they keep fighting without food or water, they will naturally die of exhaustion in the end.
Xi Tong held Jin Ting'an's hand and said, "General, we will attack tomorrow and cut the man who made the medicine into pieces."
"I have burned that man to death."
Qian Zhong took a bite of the cake and said, "They also captured innocent people to test the medicine. How could I let such people go?"
