The Lantern Festival is on the fifteenth day of the first lunar month.
There is a lantern festival in Taoyuan County, and many businesses have opened early.
The tavern was probably the only one in town that hadn't opened yet.
In the afternoon, Cheng Yue called Cheng Wen, Zhang Chengyi and Tu Jin to go to the store together to prepare for the opening tomorrow.
She also took the opportunity to check out the situation at the Women's Workshop.
With Manager Fang around and Gu Xuelan also watching over things, everything is normal at the Women's House.
After finishing her work, Cheng Yue actually wanted to watch the lantern festival in the evening, but Cheng Shun and Jiang had given repeated instructions to the maids Zi Su and Fu Ling, and Xue Hanyu and Cheng Minhong promised not to watch the lantern festival but to stay at home with Cheng Yue, so she had to go home.
Her little sisters sacrificed themselves to watch the fun with her, so she couldn't just watch the fun by herself and leave her little sisters behind.
People should be loyal.
Shanshui stayed in the city to take care of some things and did not go with Cheng Yue.
After dark, Shanshui finished his work and walked home by himself.
He felt something was wrong when he was only halfway there.
He sensed that there were people around him, and quite a few of them.
It took only a few breaths from the time he felt someone was staring at him to the time those people came out.
A dozen people quickly surrounded Shanshui, forcing him to retreat step by step and pushing him into the woods beside the road.
One against twelve reminded Shanshui of the time when Cheng Yue got into trouble when he returned from the provincial capital last year.
After about a quarter of an hour, another person appeared. This person had his face covered and was petite, but Shanshui recognized him at a glance. This was Mingzhu who had left.
Mingzhu helps Shanshui.
The two of them quickly fought their way through and killed several people, leaving only seven people.
“This way!”
Mingzhu ran in one direction first, and Shanshui followed with a sword in hand.
The sword in Shanshui's hand was snatched from the person they killed.
After running for a while, Mingzhu pulled Shanshui to hide in a tree.
Anyone who came after him accidentally fell into the trap that Mingzhu had dug long ago.
Mingzhu jumped down from the tree, took out a hidden weapon from his arms, and swung it, hitting all the people in the pit.
"Why silence them?"
Shanshui asked.
"What's the point of leaving him alive? Don't you know everything already?"
Mingzhu said coldly.
"Are you in the same group with Master Li now?"
Shanshui asked.
"I'm leaving!"
Mingzhu didn't answer, put away his sword, and walked towards another path.
"Mingzhu, Jinyan misses you so much!"
Shanshui said.
Mingzhu paused, said nothing, and continued walking forward.
Shanshui did not chase after him.
He jumped into the pit and checked several people's bodies for anything, but found nothing.
He pinched the mouths of several people one by one and found that these were all dead men and their teeth were poisonous.
Even if he left someone alive and wanted to ask something, he probably wouldn't be able to get anything.
Shanshui checked the previous people again, and found that they were the same as the ones in this pit.
He threw away the sword in his hand, straightened his clothes, walked out of the forest and headed towards the village.
After returning to the village, he did not go back to Cheng's house first, but went back to his own home.
Heizi was practicing with Cheng Jinxing. When Mazi saw Shanshui coming, he walked over.
"Master, there's a letter from Master Mo!"
Ma Zi respectfully handed over a small note.
Shanshui took the note back to his study and unfolded it to read.
Doctor Long has found the medicine and is heading back.
The words on the note made Shanshui frown.
Now that he has found the medicine, what about this group of people he met today?
