In the evening, three middle-aged men in their thirties or forties walked into Chen's Pharmacy.
When Chen Tianqi saw the middle-aged man at the head of the group, he excitedly stepped forward, and the two hugged each other vigorously.
The middle-aged man at the head laughed loudly and said: "Medicine farmer, long time no see."
Chen Tianqi replied excitedly: "Boss Fisher King, long time no see."
Then, he let go, hugged the other two people vigorously, and said: "Iron Fist, Kuaijie, long time no see."
After saying hello, both parties sat down.
After the Fisher King sat down, he asked with a serious face: "Yao Nong, you have been retired for fifteen or sixteen years, why are you still here? Is there something wrong here?"
Chen Tianqi was open-minded, shook his head and said: "I believe it's not our problem. When we used tactics to massacre the southern barbarian tribe, I had too many exchanges with the witch doctor, and the flaws were exposed.
There were too many. After the witch doctor who was seriously injured at that time escaped, I was worried about this. I was afraid of injuring the big guys. To be honest, I was also afraid of death. So I retired from the world, returned home, married a wife, had children, and lived a good life.
the lives of ordinary people.”
Chen Tianqi sighed and said: "To be honest, after fifteen years, I really thought this matter was over. Unexpectedly, I still didn't escape in the end, and retribution still came."
The Fisher King said dissatisfied: "What kind of retribution is this? It's not like you don't know the virtues of the Nanman. They see that our smuggling profits have made them so fat that they even borrowed our hands to wash Huaiyuan with blood and return to Huaiyuan."
The idea of returning to my hometown and returning to the south bank of the Huaijiang River is really ridiculous! They don’t even know what kind of virtue they are, and they still dare to speak such lies. A group of such ignorant guys, if we don’t destroy them, who will we destroy?”
Chen Tianqi couldn't help but recall that night, when children and women were killed and slaughtered by them one by one in the light of the fire. Although everything they did was just, they still felt lingering fear and guilt every time they dreamed about it at midnight.
.
Especially after marrying his beloved wife Lin Niang and giving birth to his son Shaoqing, this guilt became even more serious.
Chen Tianqi shook his head and said: "Boss, I don't regret it. If we didn't do this, our Huaiyuan County would have faced a bloody storm sixteen years ago, and those who were slaughtered might be our old and weak.
Women and children. Even if I had to do it over again, I would stick to the choice I made that night and raise the butcher knife."
The Fisher King laughed loudly and said: "Haha, good, good job on the medicine farmer, I really did not misjudge the person! Haha..."
Chen Tianqi said with a smile: "Although I entered the world and became a low-ranking person and did not join the orthodoxy of the Celestial Dynasty, I still believe that we should uphold the spirit of chivalry and do what we think is right."
The Fisher King patted Chen Tianqi's shoulder with admiration, and agreed: "You are still a medicine farmer, you are educated. Although I can't tell you so many great principles, but I, the Fisher King, am a member of the Celestial Dynasty.
, Death is a ghost of the Heavenly Dynasty, he is definitely a hero who stands upright to heaven and earth, and he is definitely not a person who talks about loyalty."
Corn wormwood
Chen Tianqi held the Fisher King's hand tightly and said, "I know, otherwise I wouldn't have written to the boss again for help after sixteen years."
"Yes, we can reminisce at any time. Let's solve your crisis first." The Fisher King nodded and asked: "Medicine farmer, what are your plans for this matter? What do you need us to do? Just say, go up the mountain of swords and go down into the sea of fire.
We’ve done it for you too.”
"Thank you, boss. With these words, my mental arithmetic has been put into my stomach."
Chen Tianqi then analyzed: "Boss, this is my guess. The reason why the other party came to me for revenge after sixteen years was for two reasons. One is that his injury was too serious and he had been recovering from it for more than ten years.
He got better recently. The other thing is that his injury was not healed, so he used his last time to cultivate an heir, tell him all the information to his heir, and let his heir take revenge."
Chen Tianqi paused for a moment, glanced at the three fisher kings, and said: "I think it should be the second situation. The person who came is not the witch doctor back then, but his successor, a newly promoted person.
Gu Master."
The Fisher King asked in confusion: "Medicine farmer, what is your basis? The enemies are different, and our strategies to deal with them will be very different. This cannot be careless."
"Of course I have a basis." Chen Tianqi said: "First of all, although the person who targeted me this time used witchcraft, it was obviously not the method of the witch doctor who escaped with serious injuries. Compared with
Gu is better at using poison."
"Secondly, if it were the witch doctor back then, and he wanted to take revenge, he would not be so petty and choose Shaoqing. Instead, he would be more likely to choose everyone in the city to bury him with me."
"Finally, the witch doctor back then was too old. Even if he survived, he would not live for ten years. What's more, after a serious injury, his lifespan will be shorter. Therefore, he is definitely not the witch doctor back then."
Back then, Chen Tianqi had a very good relationship with the witch doctor because of his medical skills, and they had many exchanges with each other. If there was anyone who knew the witch doctor best, it was Chen Tianqi.
Since Chen Tianqi is so sure, it seems that the person who came for revenge is indeed not the witch doctor who escaped with serious injuries.
The Fisher King then asked: "Even if you are his heir, how can you be sure that you are a Gu master and not a witch doctor? You know, heart-eating Gu is very common and even a witch doctor can refine it. Medicine farmer,
Gu masters and witch doctors have completely different methods of dealing with them, so we must not be careless about this."
Chen Tianqi then analyzed: "Over the Southern Barbarians, each tribe only has one medical witch or Gu master, but Gu masters are even rarer, and witch doctors are relatively more. The main reason is that witch doctors are more suitable for the survival and survival of the tribe.
development, but, in fact, their witchcraft and Gu techniques are similar, so even a witch doctor can teach a Gu master successor."
Chen Tianqi first talked about the possibility that the successor of the witch doctor was a Gu master, and then went on to analyze: "The Gu master is more aggressive than the witch doctor. Generally speaking, in the Southern Barbarians, practicing witchcraft and Gu masters does not have the burden of tribes.
Most of the people are Gu masters. This is a southern barbarian custom, and generally speaking, people who practice witchcraft and Gu will follow it. In this regard, the successor of the witch doctor who was seriously injured and escaped fully meets this condition. Not surprisingly,
This person must be a Gu master."
Chen Tianqi finally analyzed: "Last point, if it is revenge, according to their customs, they will usually use their best method. Witch doctors use poison, and Gu masters use Gu. For them, this is respect for the enemy, and it is also
Respect for oneself. This is the custom of the Southern Barbarians. Those witch doctors and Gu masters who have practiced the art of witchcraft and Gu all follow it. Since he used Gu when he attacked Shaoqing, it proves that he must
