"You audacious idiot, I'm so angry! How disgraceful!
Along the way, Chai He, who was beaten black and blue, kept cursing.
The originally neat clothes were now tattered, covered with dust and blood. The group of guards following him all lowered their heads, their faces full of shame.
What happened just now happened too fast, and the people from the martial arts school were too fierce, so I couldn't even hold out for half a cup of tea before I was captured.
After Chai He sighed heavily, he didn't take the matter too seriously.
Obviously, they did not expect that the people in this border town would be so tough, and all the people in that martial arts hall were actually practicing blood refining!
"Spirit Snake Martial Arts School..."
If the Chai family had not been in decline and no longer had the glory of the past, how could they have suffered such a great humiliation here? Chai He couldn't help but feel sad.
On the way back, Xia He always kept a considerable distance from the town magistrate and they did not exchange too many polite words.
However, Wang Erpang, who was following him, would secretly glance at Chai He from time to time, and then whispered in a low voice: "Brother He, is this man really the town commander? He doesn't look like one!"
"Say less, this matter has nothing to do with us."
At this point, it's almost certain.
The backer behind the martial arts school is Captain Fan from their garrison!
This way, everything makes sense.
Kong Hu practiced martial arts privately, and became very good at skin training, and learned the Spirit Snake Fist.
Captain Fan secretly supports the martial arts school and extorts money, regardless of the lives of the people...
The young hall master who was trying to win him over must have also received news in the military camp and learned that Captain Fan had taken a fancy to him!
Xia He took a deep breath and felt a chill in his heart.
"If I had rashly spread the antidote, I would have blocked Fan Qianhu's path to wealth, and the first person he would have killed would have been me!"
Xia He originally joined the army to protect himself and get a chance to learn martial arts.
Who could have expected that the mastermind behind this blood disease was the highest-ranking official in the garrison?
"If I get involved, Captain Fan will never let me go!"
Can this person stay?
Anyone who can become a thousand households must have at least trained his bones!
But he has not yet developed qi and blood, the gap is too big!
Xia He felt like he was facing a formidable enemy.
"call……"
Xia He didn't say a word all the way back even when he was close to the garrison.
The original joy of finding the Xuanjinmu was gone.
"Er Pang, please hand this black gold wood to the blacksmith at the craftsman's place for me. I will take the town magistrate back first."
Erpang nodded in agreement, and couldn't help but glance at Chai He who was trying to remain calm.
"Sir, we are only twenty miles away from the town. There is no need to worry."
"Okay, thank you very much..."
"Little brother, what's your name? Are you also a soldier in this guard post?"
"My name is Xia He."
"Then you and that martial arts school..."
"I have nothing to do with them."
On the way back, Chai He was quite curious about Xia He and kept asking him questions.
Xia He was so annoyed that his head was about to get dizzy.
I didn't expect Chai He to have such good psychological quality and he adjusted so quickly.
Chai He has been living in the yamen since he took office, but since the previous town magistrate was killed, no one has taken care of the house and it has become very dilapidated and desolate.
Originally, Xia He was going to put him down and leave.
Unexpectedly, after some hesitation, Chai He still stopped him.
"Brother Xia, wait a minute."
"Anything else?"
Chai He pursed his lips. He encountered setbacks everywhere when he first arrived.
Without external help, the grand plan of saving the townspeople from blood diseases would probably not be possible.
"I see that you are very familiar with the mountains and are very comfortable with them. I would like to ask you to help me find some herbs that I need."
"Don't worry, if it works, I will pay you."
Xia He looked suspicious for a moment, looked up and down at Chai He, and couldn't help asking,
"Have you any money?"
Chai He's face flushed a little, and he stammered,
"My family has fallen on hard times, and I'm afraid I don't have much real money..."
Seeing that Xia He remained unmoved, Chai He became more and more anxious.
As if he had thought of something, he hurriedly took out a roll of paper from his arms and carefully spread it out in front of Xia He.
Xia He frowned and took a look at it, and soon a look of surprise appeared on his face.
"Yangyuan Buxue Soup?"
This is actually a modified secret recipe for blood-replenishing soup!
"Where did this come from?"
Chai He smiled bitterly.
"My grandfather was a soldier, and his highest position was the guerrilla lieutenant general. This item can be exchanged for military merit in the army, so it is not a rare item."
Having said that, ordinary military households, even those at the level of a hundred households, have little qualification to access it. Usually only generals at the level of a thousand households or above are eligible to obtain it.
The magic of this secret recipe lies in that, by simply adding one unique medicinal ingredient and adjusting the dosage of other medicinal ingredients, the efficacy of the originally ordinary blood-replenishing soup can be greatly enhanced, with the effect at least increased by two times!
Xia He stared at the yellowed secret recipe with a flickering look.
Although Chai He has no money, this prescription is probably his last fortune.
"Okay, just give me a list of what you want. I agree."
Chai He immediately showed a look of joy, and hurriedly took out the list he had prepared long ago and handed it to Xia He.
Xia He just took a look and raised his eyebrows.
Almost all of the medicinal herbs above are used to suppress the external symptoms of blood diseases.
But he didn't say much, just nodded and left.
"It seems that this Chai Town Commander wants to solve the blood disease issue?"
It's a good intention, but it's a bit too naive.
If he knew that Captain Fan was behind all this, how would he feel?
"Forget it. I'll go to the pharmacy before I go home. With this prescription, the time for blood refining will be reduced by at least half."
The feeling of hiding is really uncomfortable!
…
For seven consecutive days, the days of Xiahe were very regular.
Practice martial arts, eat meat, and occasionally go into the mountains to collect medicinal herbs.
However, even if he collected all the herbs and gave them to Chai He, he might not be able to concoct the antidote in a short time.
As for the brothel girl who had previously sneaked into Zhou Bo's son's side, she never appeared again.
But in recent days, those barbarians seemed to have disappeared and have not appeared again.
"I killed the Wolf Guards and obtained the Golden Blood Salt. They suffered such a huge loss, but are they willing to just let it go?"
But Xia He was not too anxious.
During this period, Uncle Zhou actually came to the house privately with his son.
"Unfilial son, kneel down and thank you!"
"If Xiao He hadn't let you go in private, and the matter had been reported, you would have been in the dungeon now."
Zhou Bo's son's face flushed, but the dignity of a young man prevented him from saying anything.
In recent days, he still found it difficult to accept the fact that the person he loved was actually a barbarian spy. He was in a panic all day long and was distracted.
