Chapter 166

No words all night.

I don’t know that it was because the time I was delayed after going up the mountain was too long, but Shu and the others got up a little later than usual, and they waited until it was almost the end of Chenshi and then got up and finished packing.

Chen Wu got up and cleaned up himself, and then took a martial artist to the village to wait for Ji Yang's news. However, there was no movement until the end of Si Shi. Then the martial artist was left to continue waiting. He returned to the house alone and talked about the situation to Shu Yan.

"Maybe the journey is a bit long!" Shu Ying said with some uncertainty.

"It shouldn't be the reason!" Chen Wu shook his head and said to Shu Ying with great certainty: "I asked the people in this village. They all said that the county town is only about fifty miles away from here, and if you ride a horse, it will only take about an hour... If Lord Ji goes well, he will set off at Mao and Chen Shi should be back!"

Chen Wu's expression was extremely solemn. As soon as he finished speaking, he looked out the door, then lowered his voice and said to Shu Ying: "Also, Miss, I heard someone in this village mention that the disease of the second in command is a bit strange... They don't seem to be afraid of going to the county town for medical treatment because they were wanted!"

When Dian Chu heard this, he quickly looked out the door, walked over quickly, closed the door and finished it in one go, then he let out a breath and stood back to Shu Ying's side, and whispered to Chen Wu: "Uncle Chen, be careful of the ears of the wall..."

Chen Wu nodded embarrassedly, and then continued to say: "After I woke up in the morning, I heard a family in the village say in the kitchen that there have always been wanted for them in the county town, but there is no portrait of them on this wanted, so on weekdays, people in their village can go to the county town very casually!"

"What did they do to ask Brother Ji to go to the county town to seek medical treatment?" Shu Ying frowned immediately when he heard this and thought of a bad idea: "They didn't deliberately take Brother Ji away from us and then want to deal with us?"

Chen Wu shook his head and said that he was not clear: "What I know is that the second in commander's illness is a bit strange... As for what is wrong, I don't know! Lord Ji invited the witch doctor back, so we'd better leave quickly! Otherwise, if they ask for medical treatment, we won't be so relaxed if we leave!"

Shu Yan nodded quickly, but he had never left the house again.

It was not until after noon that the martial artist who was waiting for the news ran back happily and told Shu Chang and the others that Ji Yang was back.

Shu Chang breathed a sigh of relief and immediately signaled Chu and the others to pack up their things, as if they were about to leave at any time.

Ji Yang appeared in front of Shu Ying after a stick of incense. He was still frost and tired, but he said to Shu Ying seriously: "Miss, have you rested? If there is nothing wrong, we will prepare to go down the mountain now!"

Shu Yan was stunned for a moment, but he didn't expect that Ji Yang was so anxious. He didn't care about asking more questions at this moment. He nodded quickly and asked Dian Chu and the others to bring everything with him. Then he stood beside Ji Yang and asked in a low voice: "Do you still need to say goodbye to the second in command?"

"No, I've already seen him!" Ji Yang shook his head directly, and after watching Dian Chu and the others carry things, he quickly urged Shu Jiang and the others to walk down the mountain.

The way down the mountain was smooth. The village sent five men to send Shu Chan and the others to the foot of the mountain, and returned their carriages and everything. Then, he bowed to Ji Yang and turned around and left without saying much.

Chen Wu breathed a sigh of relief and quickly called many martial artists to sort out their things. Then he asked Ji Yang: "Sir Ji, are we going to set off now?"

"Well, go first!" Ji Yang said to Chen Wu with a anxious look on his eyebrows: "Things, things, etc., get on the carriage and go clean it up!"

Chen Wu responded, then turned over and urged the convoy to set off.

Dian Chu and Cong Shan got on the carriage, and after letting Shu Yan rest aside, they found that the things in the carriage were turned over. They frowned and said with some complaints and anger: "These people are really bandits. They clearly promised to keep our things, how could they move? I don't know what is missing..."

"We have all the valuable things with you, and it doesn't matter if you don't have them!" Cong Shan quickly comforted Chu and said, but his eyes were staring in front of him, counting the things one by one, and frowned tightly.

"Just spend money to eliminate disasters, the carriage is fine!" Shu Ying also comforted the two of them, and heard them responding with a nod. The counting movements in his hands had no intention of stopping. He could only shake his head helplessly, lifted the curtain of the car and looked outside. Seeing Ji Yang straightened his back and rode a horse not far ahead, he thought about it and shouted at him.

Soon, Ji Yang stopped riding a horse, waited for Shu Yan's carriage to follow and then followed: "Miss, do you have something to do?"

"I'm a little curious!" Shu Ying thought for a while, told Ji Yang the news that Chen Wu had heard, and then asked: "Why did they ask you to go to the county town to hire a witch doctor? Can't they go by themselves?"

Ji Yang shook his head, thought for a while and said to Shu Ying: "They dare not go!"

Shu Ying looked at Ji Yang in confusion, not understanding what these bandits were afraid of.

"The second head of the army was not actually sick, but offended the witch doctor!" Ji Yang said to Shu Ying in a low voice, "Their reward orders have always been hung in the county town. It was just because the government did not have their portraits, which made them unscrupulous... Then the second head of the army took a fancy to a woman in the county town. The woman was beautiful and gentle, which made the second head of the army admire her. She had a hot mind and kidnapped the woman up the mountain, but she never thought that the woman was the daughter of a witch doctor in the county town..."

Shu Ying opened his eyes wide in surprise, only to find that the story was a bit bloody.

"A lot of people in the county town saw him kidnapping, and immediately went to report to the witch doctor to know, and also alarmed the people in the government..." Ji Yang frowned, with a faint displeasure: "The second in command failed to kidnap people out of the county town, so he took the woman to their house in the county town and was locked up for three days..."

Of course, Shu Ying could understand what happened in the past three days.

"Three days later, the witch doctor came to the door with the government and caught him." Ji Yang frowned and said, "The woman was innocent and wanted to go to die. The second in charge clamored to cook the rice and let the witch doctor agree to his marriage with the woman. When the witch doctor disagreed, he said angrily, if the woman did not marry him, no one would ask her for the decay of her in this life..."
