Su Qingning could guess from listening to these people's conversation that the beautiful woman should be the city lord's woman.

Before she and Xiao Huaishuo could make a move, the second brother Xiao Lingqiu rushed in like a wild horse without a leash, swinging the sword in his hand and starting to kill indiscriminately.

Su Qingning was stunned for a moment.

"Uh... your second brother has a special personality..."

"Well, he is the most active one among the four of us brothers. We all learn martial arts to protect our country, and he really has a natural liking for swordplay."

Xiao Huaishuo felt a little distressed and held Su Qingning in his arms and sat on the roof.

"It's good that he's ahead. You can take this opportunity to rest for a while."

As a result, before Su Qingning could even sit down to relax, his second brother Xiao Lingqiu had already dealt with all the soldiers below.

The people at the gate were stunned for a moment when they saw the three people suddenly appear, and then they kept backing away while screaming.

"You...what do you want to do?!"

Xiao Ai had evolved the ability to recognize other people's hearts before, and Su Qingning knew that the Zhu family was loyal to them. He did not hide it from Zhu and explained first:

"Aunt, we are here to save you."

"Save...save us...?"

Zhu's face was full of suspicion.

Not many people call her aunt, could they be old friends?

She carefully looked at Xiao Huaishuo, then at Xiao Lingqiu. Uncertainly, she asked:

"Ah...Ah Qiu? Ah Shuo?"

"Yes, Auntie. It's us."

Xiao Huaishuo nodded calmly. The two brothers did not hide anything and immediately took off their masks and hats.

The astonishment on Zhu's face was quickly covered by joy, tears welled up in his eyes, and he excitedly pulled the two brothers Xiao Huaishuo and Xiao Lingqiu to check them over and over again.

"All right, all right! You two brothers are both fine. Auntie knows that all those rumors are just lies. You are both still alive!"

"Who is this girl?"

Zhu Xiaoren looked at Su Qingning with some doubt.

Before Xiao Huaishuo could even open his mouth, he heard the suppressed wailing of a middle-aged man coming from inside the house.

"My head hurts so much, it hurts so much, hurry up, give me the medicine..."

When Zhu heard that his son's illness had relapsed, he didn't bother to greet them anymore and rushed inside, calling his son:

"Da Lang! Go to the main courtyard and get medicine for your mother!"

A handsome young man rushed out of the house, not even bothering to greet Su Qingning and the others, and ran to the courtyard.

Seeing this, Su Qingning knew that City Lord Zhu's condition was probably very serious, so she hurriedly followed him into the house.

"Mr. Zhu, you are somewhat knowledgeable in medicine. Can you please let me take a look at you?"

"This……"

Zhu was not sure about the identity of the woman in front of him, so he was not sure about handing his child over to her.

"Aunt, he is my wife, Ning Ning."

"Ah! So you're my nephew's wife! Great! Then I'll leave it to you, Ningning! Go get some hot water to wipe your uncle's sweat."

Zhu Renben trusted Xiao Huaishuo very much. After hearing what he said, his expression immediately eased a little, and he quickly gave up his seat to let Su Qingning take the pulse.

Su Qingning walked forward to take a closer look, and saw that the man lying on the bed was extremely thin and his face was pale and looked inhuman.

He seemed to be enduring tremendous pain. He was sweating all over and kept rolling around on the bed. All he wanted was for someone to get him the medicine as soon as possible.

Su Qingning placed his hand on City Lord Zhu's wrist and carefully checked it, his brows furrowed tighter and tighter.

City Lord Zhu's symptoms are clearly not an illness, but more like...

"Mom, I've brought the longevity ointment. Please give it to Daddy."

But at this moment, Zhu Jiadalang ran in from the door holding an exquisite box.

"Great! Your father's illness is finally cured!"

Zhu was so happy that he cried. He quickly took the box from him and opened it.

Su Qingning looked up and saw that the box contained a black cake-like object.

It was just as she guessed!

This City Lord Zhu is not sick at all! Instead, he has been infected with the longevity cream for some unknown reason!

A wave of shock suddenly rose in her mind.

This Fushou ointment is actually opium. Once it gets on you, it will only do you harm and no good.

Look at the Zhu family, are they giving the Fushou Cream to City Lord Zhu as medicine?!

So how is this different from chronic suicide? !

What makes her even more frightened is that once this kind of thing appears, it is difficult to completely ban it. Like a virus, it will slowly harm one happy family after another. In the end, the entire country will be destroyed!

Su Qingning remembered that it was mentioned in the later period of the original book that people in southern Xinjiang sold Fushou Paste to the people of Daqian as a medicine that could cure all diseases.

Xiao Huaishuo, who already had a powerful faction at the time, also keenly sensed the danger of this thing and took great pains to ban it in his territory.

I didn't expect that Nanjiang would start making this move so early!

Thousands of thoughts flashed through Su Qingning's mind in an instant. On the other side, Zhu had already lit the cigarette stick and handed it to Zhu Chengzhu with a distressed look on his face.

"Master, the medicine is here. I will feel better soon."

Su Qingning was very anxious and slapped the cigarette holder away from her hand.

"Aunt, this is not medicine!"

Zhu 꽬人놅's smile froze on his face in an instant, and when he looked at Su Qingning, there was some anger on his face.

"Nephew...niece-in-law, what are you talking about?! That's your uncle's life-saving medicine!"

"Do you want to see him suffer and die in agony?!"
