Lying on the Datong bunk, smelling the familiar, slightly "foul" smell on his back, Xiao Chen seemed to have forgotten the pain of torn muscles in his back, and fell asleep.
In a daze, he saw the tempting bunch of candied haws. He kicked the pebbles away with jealousy and anger, causing the vicious waiter to chase him.
I wanted to run, but I couldn't.
The boy took the stick in his hand and hit him on the back again and again.
Severe pain came from his back. Xiao Chen struggled hard, but couldn't get away. He had to shout loudly to the sky: "Master, save me, save me."
"Xiao Chen, wake up. Are you having a nightmare?" Duan Tianming, who was outside the door, heard Xiao Chen's cry and rushed in, slapping him hard on the shoulder.
Xiao Chen slowly opened his eyes, sweating and nervous.
"I dreamed that I was being chased and I couldn't escape. Hey, that's not right. I'm awake now. Why is the burning sensation on my back still so strong? Look, what's wrong with my back?"
Xiao Chen wanted to look back anxiously.
"Don't worry, I'll take a look before talking." Duan Tianming stretched his head and looked at Xiao Chen's back.
The back that had just been wiped clean and smeared with medicine was actually a bloody mess.
Duan Tianming was shocked in his heart. Before he could scream out, he was shocked by everything in front of him.
The wounds on Xiao Chen's back, the muscles seemed to be stimulated by the potion, and they squirmed slowly.
The original condensed skin was torn apart and slowly began to recover.
"What's going on?" Xiao Chen asked anxiously.
Duan Tianming opened his mouth wide and couldn't calm down for a long time.
Hearing Xiao Chen's question, he said dullly: "Shopkeeper Wang's healing medicine is so miraculous, it can actually restore muscles quickly."
"Recovering muscles? Why do I feel burning pain in my back?"
"That's because the muscles grew too fast and tore the condensed skin of the original wounds." Duan Tianming said incredulously.
"Too fast?" Xiao Chen was startled.
He suddenly remembered that when he was with his master, he drank the medicinal wine from his master's flask and knocked himself into a coma.
After waking up, my whole body felt full of power.
Could it be said that he was also growing muscles at that time, or that he was increasing the strength in his muscles?
How could Wang Zhongzhen, a wealthy man from the capital, have such a magical healing medicine?
Moreover, the smell produced by mixing the two drugs together is very similar to the pot of hodgepodge cooked by the master?
Could it be said that Wang Zhongzhen and his master are really the same person?
Now that he is injured, Wang Zhongzhen has sent special medicines that only the master has. Could it be that the master has also come to Gongchang?
They tried every possible means to kidnap the prince, but they treated him so well. What was the reason behind this?
A secret organization aiming to overthrow the imperial court followed him to Gongchang Mansion, and even took out special healing medicine when he was injured. What did they want to do?
"At that time, I remembered that the Qianhu who was commanding on the ground had been controlled by someone. But the other person was hiding behind Qianhu, and I didn't see his face clearly. Where is this person now?" Turning to look at Duan Tianming, Xiao Chen had a look on his face.
of solemnity.
It is not easy to quietly approach Gong Changwei Qianhu, who is fighting at full strength, but it is even harder to control him instantly.
But I vaguely remember that the other party seemed to not only control Qianhu, but also pinched Qianhu's neck and lifted him off the ground.
How can this kind of strength be possessed by ordinary people?
Combined with the healing medicine on his body, this person must be the master.
Xiao Chen's eyes couldn't help but turn red.
Because of the prince's affairs, I had already expressed my anger towards him, thinking that he was always against me and made me have no good life.
But at this critical moment, it was the master who stepped forward and captured Gong Changwei Qianhu, saving himself from being attacked by countless gunpowder arrows.
Master still has himself in his heart, and he is not as bad as he thought.
"Who captured that Qianhu? Until now, I haven't found anyone. However, the other party's attack was very ruthless. The bones of Qianhu's limbs were all broken, and now he is like a disabled person." Duan Tianming said with a solemn expression.
Such an elusive master, thank you for not being on the opposite side of him.
Otherwise, Xiao Chen is injured now, and the entire Gongchang Mansion's defense cannot stop the opponent from taking action.
If Zhang Xing, the commander of Gong Changwei, and two important court officials from Dingxihou were kidnapped, Dongchang's reputation would be completely wiped out and he would be despised.
"The bones of Qianhu's limbs were smashed? It seems that he was afraid that Qianhu would take the opportunity to escape. He was really intentional." Although his back was still in unbearable pain, Xiao Chen had a smile on his face.
In the inn, Mr. Zhang stood quietly at the window on the second floor, looking in the direction of Gongchang City Official Post.
Although he was very confident in Xiao Chen's body that had been specially tempered by him, the power of the three gunpowder arrows exploding at close range should not be underestimated.
To say that Mr. Zhang is not worried at all is to deceive himself and others.
Turning back and looking at Wang Zhongzhen, who was standing cautiously in front of the table, Zhang Lao said: "Has the healing medicine been delivered to Guanyi?"
Wang Zhongzhen nodded hurriedly: "On the street not far from Guanyi, I pretended to meet Duan Tianming, the head of the Thirteenth Army of Dongchang. By the way, I mentioned the battle at the gate of the government office a few days ago, and took the opportunity to give the healing medicine to
Got him."
"To send a unique healing medicine and to go to such trouble, what I, the master, have done is really enviable." Mr. Zhang said a little dumbfounded.
"General, you said that the young master used your healing medicine. What if he doesn't come to you?"
"If he doesn't come to me, then we will go back to the capital." Mr. Zhang chuckled, turned around and sat on the chair.
He picked up the tea bowl on the table and was about to take a sip, but stopped when he reached his mouth.
"I forgot to tell you. This healing medicine is best taken with shochu for better effect. Go and tell the people in Dongchang."
"Wouldn't soju make the wound inflamed? The weather is so hot now, I'm afraid it will be counterproductive if I say it?" Wang Zhongzhen said with a worried look.
"This healing medicine is different from other medicines in that it uses soju to promote blood circulation and thereby increase the effectiveness of the medicine. Just tell me. Even if the people in Dongchang don't believe it, they should be able to understand it themselves."
Wang Zhongzhen chuckled: "General, are you afraid that he won't come to you because he doesn't know that you gave him this medicine?"
"This separation lasted more than ten years, and the only time they faced each other head-on was actually a fistfight between the two of them. This place is far away from the capital, and there are no hidden stakes that Zhu Di has all over the capital. I thought, I should also let him know who he is.
His true identity."
Mr. Zhang let out a long breath.
This time the two of them left the capital and followed Xiao Chen's footsteps to Gongchang Mansion, because they were worried that Xiao Chen would be in danger during the disaster relief process.
It doesn't matter how deep the water in Gongchang Mansion itself is, Xiao Chen can definitely handle it on his own.
But the Dingxi Houfu that was implicated was an out-and-out sinister mansion.
At the beginning, if the Marquis of Dingxi, who was still a general under the general, had not staged a fake show with Zhu Yuanzhang, the general would not have ended up in such a tragic end.
This past experience will always be remembered by Mr. Zhang, and it is also an important purpose of his coming to Gongchang City.
Regarding Xiao Chen, Mr. Zhang believed that the more than a month he spent with him should be an unforgettable time for him.
The special smell of the healing medicine will definitely make him aware of his arrival.
However, the series of actions he took against the prince in the middle caused a real crisis to Xiao Chen.
Although he initially let go of Cao Zheng, who was attending the academy in Baoding Prefecture, and asked him to inform him of the news, then he stopped. But it didn't mean that he didn't hate him.
It doesn't matter if he can't understand his painstaking efforts.
But he had an obligation to tell him his life experience and the mission he had undertaken without concealing it.
Now is the opportunity.
Can't miss it again.
Looking at Mr. Zhang's complicated expression, Wang Zhongzhen nodded: "General, don't worry, my subordinates will go now. I will personally watch the young master drink soju."
"Wait a minute." Mr. Zhang stopped Wang Zhongzhen, reached out and took off the wine bottle from his waist, raised his hand and handed it to Wang Zhongzhen: "Take this wine bottle with you."
This wine bottle is very similar to the one given to Xiao Chen.
In other people's eyes, Mr. Zhang was an alcoholic and couldn't live without a wine flask, so he made another one.
Only Mr. Zhang himself understood that when he looked at this wine bottle, his mind was filled with every detail of his time with Xiao Chen.
"Okay." Looking at the wine bottle, Wang Zhongzhen responded and reached out to take it.
He turned around, opened the guest room door, and left in a hurry.
