Chapter 174: The Gu Master Who Cultivated the Young Hero
There was a sudden knock on the door. From the person's breath and footsteps, Qi He determined that it was Yan Yixiuan and opened the door.
"Xiao He, we plan to go to the city lord and ask him if he has found the person. We are all up now except you!"
Qi He nodded, holding the sword, and walked out with Yan Yixiuan.
When going down the stairs, Qi He naturally walked to Lin Zhi's side.
"Actually, I've wanted to ask you for a long time. How did you find Brother Lin so accurately when you couldn't see, Xiaohe?"
Qu Ziheng had no ill intentions, but he had been really curious about this question for a long time.
The three of them stood here, no one spoke. Qi He, who came down from above, was able to accurately and silently find Lin Zhi's location.
"I have been with Master for a long time, so I am naturally familiar with his aura."
Qi He smiled and his words did not sound strange, just like most disciples in the world who are very familiar with their master.
He was familiar with everything about Lin Zhi, his voice and footsteps, the sound of his bell, even the frequency of his breathing and the sweet scent on his body.
Qu Ziheng's doubts were resolved, and he led everyone out of the inn through the backyard as there were too many people in front.
"I hope the person has been caught, so that Mr. Chen's life will be protected and we can leave quickly."
Yan Yixuan snorted: "Don't let me catch that thief, or I will teach him a lesson."
Jiang Yan waved his fan and joked, "Lady, with your lightness skills, I guess you can't even see the other person's shadow."
"How dare you criticize me? We are equally skilled in Qinggong. At least I can grab the edge of Xun's clothes in the competition, but you can't touch anything."
Yan Yixiuan made a face, and Qingxun smiled a little embarrassedly when he was mentioned.
Although Qingxun has the worst martial arts skills among the four, his lightness skills are comparable to those of Qu Ziheng, who has the best martial arts skills.
Lin Zhi knew the reason for this. He had already collected as much information as possible about the various sects in the martial arts world.
In addition to learning how to use medicine and poison, doctors at Biyuan Villa also have to learn martial arts to protect themselves. If the situation is not right, they will leave immediately, making the most of the thirty-six strategies of running away.
Biyuan Villa’s unified rhetoric to shirk responsibility: What does the fight between gangsters have to do with my doctor?
The four of them were talking and laughing in the front, while Lin Zhi and Qi He were behind them. No matter how fast or slow they walked, they always kept a few steps away from them.
"Master woke up today and didn't see me. Why didn't he wake me up? I was stunned for a moment when Sister Yixuan came to wake me up."
"It won't hurt if you sleep a little longer."
"Master knows that I never sleep in. I just had a dream last night, so I came down late."
Qi He's tone was calm yet a little depressed, making it easy for people to connect the dream he described with his tragic experience.
Lin Zhi naturally thought so too. Qi He told him the reason for the accident in his family last night. When he recalled it, he inevitably thought of those experiences and hatred. He couldn't help but have trouble sleeping because he thought about it during the day and dreamed about it at night.
He even thought last night that Qi He might come to him because he couldn't sleep, but Qi He didn't do that. He has grown up.
Lin Zhi did not realize how bold the seemingly well-behaved disciple beside him was. She actually dared to express those erotic and obscene dreams about him so openly in broad daylight, and even disguised them as another meaning vaguely to arouse his sympathy.
Lin Zhi deliberately slowed down his pace and distanced himself from the people in front of him.
He asked Qi He: "Do you want to go back and take a look?"
Ever since he took Qi He out of Chunyi seven years ago, Qi He has never returned.
He did go and see it, and left people around.
The Qi Mansion had long been overgrown with weeds. Some drunkards and scoundrels tried to climb over the wall to find things or to stay, but they were all driven away by him. As a result, the place became a famous haunted house.
There were people who worshipped and cleaned the tombstone of Qi He's parents. They were friends of Qi He's parents and people from the escort agency.
Qi He shook his head slightly, his voice deeper: "I am too embarrassed to see them now."
He has more than one enemy, and he won't go back until he figures out who those people are. He can't worship his parents empty-handed.
"But we already have a clue. If we keep searching along this path, we will eventually find clues." Qi He's expression returned to normal. He held Lin Zhi's sleeve like a child and said, "With Master by my side, I will definitely find the answer."
"That's natural."
Lin Zhi affirmed Qi He's words, did not wave away Qi He's hand, and walked forward with him.
After arriving at the City Lord's Mansion, they waited for a long time before City Lord Chen appeared.
He looked tired and gloomy, and it seemed that the situation was not optimistic.
Yan Yixuan stood up and asked, "Didn't you catch Yingying?"
"She was caught, but she didn't tell us who she gave the drugs to, and she committed suicide when we were least prepared."
City Lord Chen looked at them and asked anxiously, "Can you tell me what the thief looks like? Maybe we can find him."
Qu Ziheng and the others subconsciously looked at Lin Zhi and Qi He. Lin Zhi apologized and said, "The man was wearing a mask, so we don't know what he looks like."
It would be useless even if he looked for Bai Youqiu again, because he had already given the medicine to someone else, and that person would not let him know the whereabouts of the medicine.
Yan Yixuan said, "Uncle Chen, how about we help you look for it?"
"Forget it. Now that the clues are gone, it would be like looking for a needle in a haystack to search for it again. This city can no longer be closed because of my personal affairs. I will trouble you young heroes to help me. I will host a banquet later. I beg you to do me a favor."
Jiang Yan closed his fan and asked, "What about your son's illness?"
City Lord Chen sighed: "Although there is no medicine like Bilu Hantian, the others can be substituted. The effect is not as good, but it can barely save a life."
Lin Zhi looked at the middle-aged man in front of him and said kindly, "Can you ask what disease your son has? I know a famous doctor, maybe I can ask him for help."
"Thank you for your kindness, young man. But even the owner of Biyuan Villa is helpless. My son went wrong in his training. We can only find the right medicine for him."
City Lord Chen bowed, and several young men expressed their regret for what happened to his son.
Lin Zhi didn't say anything else and just nodded.
The group left the City Lord's Mansion. Qu Ziheng said, "Fortunately, there are other medicines, but do you want to go to the banquet that City Lord Chen mentioned?"
Jiang Yan shook his head: "Let's not go. We still have to go to Yicheng. We have been delayed here for a few days."
Yan Yixuan nodded: "If we catch the thief, or find the whereabouts of the medicine, I will definitely participate, but knowing this news is all thanks to Brother Lin and Xiaohe, it seems that we have not been able to help. Brother Lin, do you want to go?"
"No need, too many people will inevitably make noise."
There was nothing here that Lin Zhi wanted to explore, and he didn't want to waste time.
Yan Yixuan: "Then we will send a message to Uncle Chen later. We will pack our things now and leave when we can leave the city."
Everyone walked towards the inn. Qing found Lin Zhi and asked him curiously which famous doctor he knew.
Qingxun is a rather introverted and shy person, but he has great passion for things related to medicine and poison.
"One of my uncles, but he has been wandering for many years."
Lin Zhi just made up an excuse, and now he is using Yan Sangeng to cover up his lie.
This ghost doctor has been dead for many years, but it makes sense.
While the others were returning to the inn to pack their things, Lin Zhi contacted Bai Youqiu.
He booked a private seat in the teahouse and Bai Youqiu entered stealthily through the window.
Bai Youqiu lowered his voice and said anxiously, "Have you figured out that I don't know where the medicine is? Can the bug be taken out?"
Lin Zhi knocked lightly on the wooden table: "Where in the City Lord's Mansion did you steal the bottle of medicine?"
"What happened in the study?"
"No mechanism?"
"How is that possible? It can be said that we are on high alert," Bai Youqiu raised his chin and said somewhat proudly, "But I'm a little thief, how can that be difficult for me?"
"Your apprentice should have only learned the old man's footwork, not his handwork, otherwise the old man would not have agreed to only call him master. A thief did not start out by relying on light skills. Outsiders think that we are powerful because we have good body skills and can come and go without a trace. But without real hand skills and a cunning eye, how can we steal treasures?"
"Do you know City Lord Chen's son?"
Bai Youqiu looked puzzled and said, "How would I know? I just stared at him."
Lin Zhi knew in his heart that the city lord was indeed lying.
What life-saving medicine for his son? If it was really related to his son, how could Bai Youqiu, who had been staring at him, not know who his son was?
It's impossible that my son was in critical condition and I never visited him or even mentioned it once.
Lin Zhi asked Bai Youqiu when he made the deal with the person. In order to get the worms out of his body as soon as possible, Bai Youqiu told her everything in detail.
In February of this year, Bai Youqiu made a deal with someone and has been squatting in Qinhe Valley for more than two months.
Therefore, as soon as the bottle of Bilu Hantian came into the hands of City Lord Chen, Bai Youqiu stole it away.
More than two months... Qu Ziheng and the others got the news that Jing Weisong was looking for Snake Cloud Grass last month. Lin Zhi suppressed his thoughts and removed the poisonous insect from Bai Youqiu's body.
In order to give Bai Youqiu a better experience, Lin Zhi specially chose the most obvious way.
Feeling the poisonous insect crawling on his face and drilling out of his bloody mouth, Bai Youqiu left a sentence "We'll meet again if we're destined to" and disappeared in front of Lin Zhi, giving people a feeling that he didn't want to see him again.
Lin Zhi put the insect away, dripped a few drops of blood into it, sat quietly in the teahouse for a while to sort out his thoughts, then left and prepared to meet up at the inn.
But when he arrived at the inn, he didn't see Qi He.
Qu Ziheng looked around and asked, "Brother Lin, didn't Xiao He go to look for you? Why didn't she come back with you?"
Lin Zhi frowned and asked 01 to locate Qi He. He was relieved when he saw that he was moving towards the inn.
He knew that ordinary people could not hurt Qi He with his strength, but Qi He was blind after all, and he was still a child.
Outside the inn, Qi He came in with a pot of wine.
Yan Yixuan: "Xiao He, where have you been? Brother Lin was so worried when he couldn't find you just now!"
Yan Yixiuan had just been standing next to Lin Zhi, and she clearly saw the gloomy look on Lin Zhi's face when he found out that his disciple was missing. The beauty's worry made her feel worried too.
Qi He walked quickly to Lin Zhi and shook the wine jug at her as if offering a treasure.
"I just smelled the fragrance of plum wine. I know Master loves to drink it. I heard that the plum wine here is very famous, so I went to get a pot for Master."
"Master, I have grown up. I won't get lost. I can find you no matter where you are."
Before yesterday, Qi He hoped that Lin Zhi would treat him as a child, so that she would always take care of him and love him.
But now Qi He hopes that Lin Zhi can realize that he is no longer a child.
He was old enough to dream of having sex with him, and he would continue to grow.
