"This is the Soul-Suppressing Alliance, where did the thieves come from?" Ji Chou turned and walked towards the door.

Wang Laoqi was not in a hurry to leave. He stood outside the door with the woman and watched Ji Chou open the door. Seeing that his expression remained normal after looking around, he said, "Since nothing is wrong, let's leave first.

"

Ji Qiu responded, went into the house, closed the door, and continued to search. There was definitely no one there. He was looking for a mouse. From the previous sound, it seemed that something had fallen to the ground. A mouse was the most likely suspect.

The mouse didn't look for it, but he saw something that fell on the ground. It was the Five Elements Tray he had picked up before. He had been keeping this object under the quilt at the head of the bed against the wall, but somehow it fell to the ground.

He bent down to pick up the Five Elements Plate and searched it carefully. The room was only that big and there was nothing to cover it. If there was a mouse, he would not miss it.

With the boss here, the assistant is a dispensable role. Ji Chou is also happy to have some leisure time. He spends most of his time in his room reading the secrets of Samadhi True Fire. As the saying goes, read the book a hundred times and its meaning will be apparent.

As the number of times I read it increased, I gradually understood a lot of the obscure formulas.

If you try to study in the dead of night, you can get a glimpse of the secret.

Three days later in the afternoon, Wang Laoqi came again. He was going out to purchase some herbs for reducing dryness and heat, and asked Ji Chou if he wanted to bring anything with him.

"Why do you want to go out again?" Ji Chou tilted his head and looked at him, "It's not peaceful outside at this time. If you keep running out, sooner or later something will happen."

"It's business this time," Wang Laoqi said seriously, "Maybe it's due to the autumn dryness. These mounts have had poor appetites in recent times and there is always leftover food. The monks from various sects urged me to go out and buy some dryness-reducing herbs.

"

Ji Chou didn't take it seriously and asked casually, "I haven't been out much these days. Is there anything happening outside?"

"Which outside?" Wang Laoqi asked.

"Of course it's what happened in the alliance recently," Ji Chou said, "By the way, do you know what's going on outside? If you know, tell me."

"Everyone from the four major cities seems to have arrived. Ji Ling'er got another mount. I heard it was a young crane, but I didn't see it. It must have been raised in the house," Wang Laoqi said, "

As for the situation outside, it's still the same. The blood-reverse guards are raging everywhere and everyone is hiding. It's getting harder and harder to buy some supplies. After a while, I'm afraid I won't be able to buy them even if I have money."

"Oh." Ji Chou responded casually.

"You really don't need to bring anything with you?" Wang Laoqi asked again.

Jichou knew what Wang Laoqi was doing, so he took out his money bag from under the quilt, took a few broken pieces of silver and threw it over, "Save some money."

Wang Laoqi raised his hand to catch it, thanked him and left happily.

After Wang Laoqi left, Ji Chou also got up and left the residence. As an assistant, it was not good to not show up all the time.

We walked around the self-feeding hospital and the other three branch hospitals, and checked the conditions of the mounts everywhere. As Wang Laoqi said, these mounts seemed to have poor appetites, and there was a lot of food left.

.

The owner of the horse cares more about his horse than the handyman in the feeding yard. He found that the horse had a bad appetite and tried to find out the cause. However, the food was fresh and the drinking water was changed every day. After searching for it, he could only blame it on the weather.

, noon in early autumn is hotter than noon in summer, and the horse's poor appetite is probably caused by the heat.

Before sunset, Wang Laoqi came back and brought some food and wine for Ji Chou.

Since the wine and food Wang Lao Qi brought back were relatively poor, Ji Chou did not send them to Ji Haoran and others. After everyone in the courtyard finished their work, he wanted to find Wang Lao Qi to have a drink with him, but he could not be found.

After waiting for Wang Laoqi to come back for a long time, he returned to his residence, lay on his side on the bed, opened the paper bag, and took some braised food to eat.

At the second watch, Wang Laoqi came, running. His face was very ugly, he was restless, and he stopped talking.

"What happened?" Ji Chou asked.

Wang Laoqi didn't answer immediately. He hesitated for a long time before whispering, "Something bad happened. I may have gotten into a big trouble."

Ji Chou was originally lying on the bed, but when he heard Wang Laoqi's words, he hurriedly stood up and sat up, "What's wrong?"

Wang Laoqi said anxiously, "I went out to buy Andrographis paniculata and honeysuckle to remove the fire during the day. In the evening, I put in water and fed it to the horses."

"Did you buy the wrong medicine?" Ji Chou asked.

Wang Laoqi shook his head and said, "That's not true. Both of these herbs are symptomatic. However, Hu Er, who was helping the stove earlier to remove the ashes, smelled a sour smell from the ashes under the stove. If I had not smelled it wrong,

If so, someone must have burned the Aconitum stems and leaves under the stove."

Ji Qiu didn't understand pharmacology, so he had to ask, "What is Aconitum? Finish your sentence and don't hesitate."

"Aconitum is an herb that dispels wind and restores yang. The root is used as medicine. It is originally non-toxic. However, the medicinal effect will remain for half a month after the substance enters the body. During this period, if it encounters Andrographis paniculata and Goosegrass, it will produce strange effects.

"Poison," Wang Laoqi said, raising his hands and clasping his hands, "I went up the mountain to see it before, and you can see cowweed everywhere in the mountain. Most of the mounts in the mountain must have been poisoned."

Hearing Wang Laoqi's words, Ji Chou suddenly broke into a cold sweat, "Then why are you coming to me? Hurry up and find a way to treat me. If you poison the monks' mounts, they can skin you alive."

.”

"You won't die if you die," Wang Laoqi shook his head and said, "Goosegrass has the effect of clearing away heat and detoxifying, which can neutralize the toxicity, but it also has the effect of shrinking tendons and restoring collaterals, which will make those horses cramp and paralyze, and they will not be able to rise.

Flying in the sky."

After Wang Laoqi finished speaking, Ji Chou hurriedly went to the ground, "Oh no, someone wants to attack the Soul Suppressing Alliance secretly. They secretly poisoned them to prevent these mounts from taking off, so that the monks have no mounts to control them. Let's go, go and follow them."

Auntie and Tian Xiangzi said, "

"Those birds and beasts have no symptoms yet, and I'm not sure if I'm worrying too much," Wang Laoqi hesitated, "Actually, I'm not sure that the sour smell in the ashes under the stove is Aconitum. If not, not only

A false alarm will lead to complaints."

"How long has it been since this happened? You are still afraid of being blamed. You would rather believe that something is true than something that is not true." Ji Chou took Wang Laoqi out and said, "This matter is of great importance and cannot be hidden. If something happens, it will be over.

"

Wang Laoqi was worried and didn't want to go, "Why don't we just take a look and talk about it. Maybe it's just a coincidence."

"You can't take any chances," Ji Chou shook his head and said, "I can't blame you for this. The murderer is someone else."

"Better wait..." Wang Laoqi stopped mid-sentence.

Seeing Wang Lao Qi suddenly stop, Ji Chou turned around to urge him, but when he turned around, he found Wang Lao Qi looking at the western sky in shock.

Ji Qiu followed Wang Laoqi's line of sight and tilted his head to look to the west, only to find that a large dark cloud appeared in the western sky. He looked carefully and saw what kind of dark cloud it was. They were clearly a group of monsters with wings on their backs. They were numerous and dark.

Their movement trajectory is exactly the area where the Soul Resurrection Alliance is located.

"What should I do?" Wang Laoqi looked at Ji Chou in horror.
