Chapter 108 Shenjia Village
"Despicable! If you have anything to say, come to me. Don't make things difficult for my wife and children." Upon hearing this, Niu Niu's father changed his silence since being arrested and shouted excitedly.
"Your wife and children, Ding Yong, have you been pretending for too long? Have you even forgotten who you are? Look up and see who I am?" The man whipped Ding Yong fiercely, piercing Ding Yong's luck.
Ding Yong closed his eyes in despair, but explained in a low voice: "Whether you believe it or not, I found An Niang and her daughter in the river."
If Chu Ci were here and heard this conversation, he would probably sigh, "How exciting! It's like a real-life soap opera!"
It’s a pity that Chu Ci is not here.
At this moment, Chu Ci, due to the agreement with the Purple-Robed Envoy, decided to advance the construction of the women's college in order to avoid alerting the enemy.
Under the pretext of selecting a site for a women's college, Chu Ci led the Purple-Robed Envoy to travel through the mountains and remote villages of Lianzhou.
After eight days, Chu Ci's legs were almost broken from exhaustion.
However, apart from discovering some "Holy Mother" believers who were hiding very deeply or had not had time to evacuate, they found nothing.
Many people in the Xiuyi Law Enforcement Department complained about this: "I don't know what the Purple Envoy is thinking. Could it be that the Chu family is more powerful than those of us who have received training?"
When Jin Ming heard this, his heart tightened.
As expected, Chu Ci treated everyone equally and didn't give in. "Whether I'm even close to you, I don't know, but this job was requested by your Lord Purple Envoy. So, when it's time to shut up, shut up. Understand?"
"Why? I..." He had really been relying on the power of Xiu Yi's law enforcement for too long and had become a little arrogant. Even after Chu Ci had said so much, the other party was still not convinced.
The purple-robed envoy was also annoyed. "Xiang Ying, I have no shortage of subordinates who disobey orders. If there is a next time, I will automatically resign."
After hearing this, Chu Ci curled his lips in disdain, thinking to himself that he would just withdraw next time and not pursue the matter this time!
"Sir Purple-Robed Envoy, I'm hungry and craving for a roasted whole lamb. Please grant my wish!" Ever since she was forced to agree to the Purple-Robed Envoy's request, Chu Ci would have a tantrum from time to time.
The Purple Envoy allowed her to do so, but it made life difficult for his subordinates. They were either roaming the mountains and fields looking for rabbits and catching pheasants, or picking some strange weeds.
Despite his grievances, Xiang Ying couldn't resist a single look from his boss. Even if he felt aggrieved, he could only go find Yang.
Unfortunately, wild goats are not found on every mountain. Even after running all over the mountain, Xiang Ying didn't see any goats. In desperation, he could only catch two pheasants to make up the number.
"I am incompetent." Although his tone was harsh, he still learned to bow his head.
Xiang Ying originally thought that Chu Ci would let him go.
Unexpectedly, Chu Ci just said: "No appetite, leaving!"
In fact, during this period of time, Chu Ci had scanned the entire mountain and confirmed that there was no gold mine, so there was no need to stay any longer.
But Xiang Ying didn't know. He kicked the motionless pheasant on the ground several times, then picked up the pheasant angrily and caught up with the main group.
However, this may have opened up Chuci's hidden evil taste. In every subsequent climb, various tricky requests were made one after another.
Even so, Chu Ci and his team searched almost all of Lianzhou and its surrounding mountains, but found no trace of the gold mine.
At this point, Chu Ci couldn't help but feel suspicious: "Is there no gold mine at all? Did Niuniu just hear it wrong?"
"No, you're not wrong. The gold mine does exist." Although the Purple Envoy had been busy with Chu Ci these days, his men hadn't been idle. As he spoke, he produced a list. "Young Madam, please review this list."
"Is this the missing persons list for Lianzhou? How come there are so many missing persons in Shenjia Village and nearby Lianjiakou?" Chu Ci looked at the list, frowning. "Have you checked Shenjia Village?"
Chu Ci believed that the Purple-Robed Envoy had already checked, and sure enough, the Purple-Robed Envoy frowned and said, "There's nothing wrong with Shenjia Village or Lianjiakou Village, but there's a rumor in the nearby mountains and forests that there are tigers that often eat people."
"This should be a smokescreen deliberately released by those people." Tigers may really exist, but whether they eat people frequently is probably questionable.
The purple-robed envoy nodded and said, "I too once had this suspicion and sent two brothers to investigate, but they could only wander around the periphery."
"Let's go to Shenjia Village." Chu Ci said without hesitation.
This was exactly what the Purple Envoy wanted, so naturally, he wouldn't stop them. However, none of them expected that upon reaching the entrance of Shenjia Village, they would hear shouts: "Lift it steadily! If you can't lift it, replace someone else."
When I got closer, I saw the villagers carrying a young man covered in blood and missing an arm.
"Was it a tiger bite?" Chu Ci was puzzled, but he didn't hesitate. "I'm a doctor. If you'd like, my senior brother and I can help take a look."
Chu Ci was afraid that he would not be able to gain people's trust, so he pulled Jin Ming over and gave him the title of senior brother.
Sure enough, the leading elder immediately walked towards Jin Ming. "Doctor, please save Qiangzi."
Jin Ming did not refuse and immediately took action: "Put him down, Junior Sister, come and help."
For such a serious injury, ordinary medicine will definitely not work.
Fortunately, in order to hide his tracks, Chu Ci carried a large package with him. Under the cover of the package, Chu Ci secretly smuggled in a lot of spiritual spring water and high-quality medicine.
But they all blamed it on Doctor Hua: "Brother, use these. These medicines were given to me by Master just in case."
Jin Ming did not hesitate at all. He followed Chu Ci's instructions and first used spiritual spring water to clean the wound, and then disinfected it with alcohol.
For shallow wounds, apply medicine directly; for deep wounds, suture them.
After the operation, the villagers of Shenjia Village all widened their eyes, but the effect was significant. Except for the broken arm, the other wounds no longer bleed.
"What a miracle doctor! He's truly a miracle doctor!" Most people felt fortunate for the wounded on the ground, while some felt indignant for those injured earlier: "If San'er had been there... maybe he could have saved his life."
Maybe it's just a simple emotion.
But as soon as these words were spoken, the villagers present immediately looked at Chu Ci and Jin Ming cautiously.
The old man in the lead apologized repeatedly: "Two miracle doctors, Chen Mu didn't mean it. It's just that his son was the same, but he wasn't as lucky as Qiangzi and has passed away..."
Chu Ci frowned slightly when he heard this: "Does that beast often come to the village?"
The old man's face was filled with worry. He sighed and said, "I don't know if it's because the feng shui of the village is bad."
