The doctor sitting in the hall stroked his long beard, took back his hand on a man's pulse, and asked: "When did this symptom appear?"
The man said with a grimace: "Just yesterday, last night, I was talking to my wife, um, um, um..., suddenly there was a loud noise outside, which shook my house almost to the point of collapse. At that time, I was um, and then,
Then I couldn’t get up this morning…”
The doctor nodded, then comforted him and said, "It's okay. It's normal to be frightened at that time and have such symptoms. I'll give you a prescription, and you'll be fine after taking it for a few days."
The man said gratefully: "Thank you, doctor, thank you, doctor!"
"That's right." The doctor picked up the pen and said, "Just follow this prescription and take the medicine. One hundred-year-old wild ginseng, one deer antler, a pair of bear paws, and a pound of cordyceps. Just take it for a few days and you'll be fine...
…”
After the man grabbed the medicine and left, the shopkeeper of the pharmacy counted the money and said: "I don't know what happened last night. I was sleeping soundly when suddenly there was a loud noise outside. I was so scared that I fell under the bed.
I thought the earth dragon was turning over, but it was shaken..."
On the streets, people were also discussing this matter.
The loud noise late last night woke up the whole city. Even now, most people don't know what happened.
It wasn't until the Qingjiang County Government posted a notice in order to stabilize people's hearts that the people knew the whole story.
The notice said that last night, several monsters attacked the Wu family manor outside the city and had a big battle with the Wu family practitioners. This battle was very fierce and razed the entire Wu family to the ground. The loud noise was the sound of the battle.
dispatched.
"It's so terrible that a big war actually caused such a big fuss!"
"Fortunately, the war did not happen in the county town, otherwise we would also suffer disaster."
"When will the imperial court completely eliminate these damn monsters and drive them back to the mountains and never come out again?"
…
Among the crowd, a cultivator said with lingering fear: "What a bullshit fight. Fighting is not that powerful. This is equivalent to self-destruction at the peak of creation. Yesterday, I just watched from a distance, and I was all affected and injured. What if
If you get any closer, you may die..."
The person next to him looked pale, his breath was very weak, and he gritted his teeth and said: "Damn it, it will take at least half a year to recover from the injury I suffered this time. That lunatic, His Highness the County Prince was so angry with him last night..."
The cultivator said: "If it weren't for that lunatic, His Highness the County Prince would have caught those monsters. If Wanhuan Tianjun's daughter was handed over to the court, it would be a great achievement..."
…
"Little snake..."
In the crowd, a handsome man burst into tears. As the tears dripped from his cheeks, they disappeared into the void.
Beside him, a beautiful woman also shed two lines of clear tears. She took a deep breath and said in a hoarse voice: "Let's go!"
Thousand Fox City.
After Fan Ji, Hu Jiu and others came back, they checked the entire Mei Sect, but still couldn't find any clues about the undercover agent. That person was like a poisonous snake that chooses people to eat, hiding in the dark, who knows what?
Sometimes, they will bite them again.
Fan Ji looked at Hu Jiu and Hu Liu and said, "From now on, you are the only ones I can trust."
Hu Jiu walked into a small courtyard. When he came out, he held several neatly folded clothes in his arms. He had a sad look on his face and said, "I want to build a tomb for the little snake."
Outside Qianhu City, a small mound was piled up on a beautiful hillside.
Fan Ji and Hu Liu stood in front of the mound in silence.
Hu Jiu put his hand on the tombstone in front of the mound and said very seriously: "Little snake, I will definitely avenge you..."
…
Jiujiang County Prince's Mansion.
"Your Highness, Master Wu, Master Mu, and Master Mei's life talismans are all broken!"
"Master Chen's is also broken..."
"It's the fox demon taking revenge..."
Listening to the reports from his subordinates, the face of the Prince of Jiujiang became more and more gloomy. The fox indeed held a grudge and launched a crazy revenge on them not long after he escaped.
He thought for a moment and said in a deep voice: "This is because they are seeking death themselves. They informed the county government that there are monsters from the Demon Kingdom who want to murder the king."
The servant said: "Those monsters are so powerful that the county government may not be able to deal with them."
The Prince of Jiujiang County snorted coldly and said: "If they can't handle it, there will always be someone who can..."
…
Demon King's Cave.
Li Mu was lying on the grass, with his hands behind his head, a blade of grass in the corner of his mouth, and looking at the sky above his head.
His mission of sneaking into the Thousand Fox Kingdom has been completed, and the play has been performed. Although he is not so addicted that he can't get out, after lying here for two days, the stories of Fan Ji, Hu Jiu, and the Mei Sect will often appear in his mind.
figure.
As expected, the play should not be performed for too long, otherwise it will be easy to lose track of the inside and outside of the play.
Li Mu stretched out his hand, and there was a piece of spiritual jade in the palm of his hand. In the center of the spiritual jade, there was a red trace in the shape of a blood drop.
He left this spiritual jade in the Demon King's space, and his body disappeared on the spot.
Somewhere in Jiujiang County or Qingjiang County, Li Mu's figure appeared out of thin air.
He took out the spirit snail and input mana.
The Queen's angry voice soon came from the spirit conch: "Li Mu, if you don't let me speak this time, you will see how I deal with you when you come back!"
Li Mu coughed lightly and said: "Your Majesty, you can say as many words as you want this time, and you can say as long as you want..."
Opposite Lingluo, Zhou Wu was stunned for a moment, and then said: "Forget it, your safety is important. If you have anything to say, tell me quickly. It will take too long, and you may arouse their suspicion."
Li Mu said: "Your Majesty, don't worry. I have completed my mission and will be able to return to the capital of God soon."
"Can you come back?"
"Yes, I have left Qianhu Country."
"Then don't wait until later. Let's set off now. Immediately, right away, before tomorrow. I want to see you. Do you know how I have spent the past few months? I am tired of reading the book every day..."
…
Li Mu listened to the Queen's complaints and said helplessly: "Your Majesty, I still have some things to do in Jiujiang County. Once these things are dealt with, I will go back as soon as possible."
Zhou Wu asked: "What's going on in Jiujiang County?"
Li Mudao: "Xiao Heng, the king of Jiujiang County, has a large number of retainers in his palace, and has also recruited a large number of practitioners through some black means. He allows his subordinates to cause harm in Jiujiang County. I will go back after handling his affairs."
Zhou Wu was a little disappointed when she heard this, and could only say: "Can you do it alone?"
Li Mu said: "I'm afraid it won't work. I need the assistance of the Minister of Worship."
Zhou Wu asked: "Is it enough for one great worshiper and ten fifth-level peak worshippers?"
Li Mu thought for a while and said, "It's enough to bring the big enshrinement. We don't need so many people."
Zhou Wu held the conch, looked at Lord Mei beside her, and said, "Go and notify the Enshrinement Department and ask the two great envoys to go to Jiujiang County together. After handling the matter, bring Li Mu back to me."
Lord Mei quickly came to the Enshrinement Department and said to the two great envoys: "Your Majesty has decreed that the two envoys go to Jiujiang County to assist Lord Li in handling the matter of the Prince of Jiujiang County, and then bring him back. If he does not come back, he will
Tie him back."
The two of them raised their hands at the same time: "I obey the order."
In Changle Palace, Zhou Wu looked at Lingluo and said, "I heard that in the Demon Kingdom, you beat a fox's legs and shoulders, and washed her feet?"
"..."
As expected, this matter still reached the ears of the Queen. His majestic image in the Queen's mind may have collapsed. Li Mu sighed and said: "Your Majesty, please listen to my explanation..."
An hour later, Li Mu put down the spirit snail.
It's been a long time since he cooked Lingsnail porridge with the Queen like this. In the past hour, he had finished his work report to the Queen in advance. He didn't know why the Queen was so curious about these things, and asked him to explain them one by one in detail.
If there hadn't been a courtier asking to see her, she might have asked Li Mu to talk for an hour.
Li Mu returned to Jiujiang County and prepared to wait for the two great ministers to arrive.
At their speed, they will be there by this time tomorrow.
He had just walked around a street corner when an incredible voice suddenly came from behind him.
"Little snake?"
Li Mu turned around subconsciously, and when he saw Hu Jiu's face, he secretly thought that something was going to happen.
Hu Jiu ran over excitedly, grabbed Li Mu's arm, and said in surprise: "Little snake, it's really you, you're not dead!"
It wasn't just Hu Jiu who was excited, there was also an unspeakable look of surprise on Fan Ji's face.
Only Hu Liu looked at him with surprise on his face.
Li Mu waved away Hu Jiu. Hu Jiu was stunned for a while and asked: "Little snake, what's wrong with you? You don't recognize me anymore?"
Fan Ji seemed to realize something, and looked at Li Mu, the light in her eyes quickly dimmed.
Even at such a close distance, she didn't feel the presence of that drop of blood.
The person opposite is not a little snake.
Li Mu looked at Fan Ji, raised the corner of his mouth and said, "Fox, we meet again."
Little Snake would not call Master Fan Ji that way. Hu Jiu finally reacted, took a few steps back, and blurted out: "You are Li Mu, the real Li Mu!"
Li Mu looked at Hu Jiu, and finally looked at Fan Ji, and said: "The great minister said that he saw another me in the Thousand Fox Kingdom. I didn't believe it at first, but now it seems to be true, Fan Ji, Fan Ji,
You are going too far. You dare not fight with me openly, but you humiliate me like this behind your back..."
Fan Ji looked a little haggard, unwilling to mention that matter, and said coldly: "What are you doing here?"
Li Mu glanced at her and said: "This is Jiujiang County, one of the thirty-six counties in the country. I should ask you this question. What are you doing here? Are you trying to do something bad again?"
Seeing this familiar face, Hu Jiu was reminded of something sad. He gritted his teeth and said: "Why do you say that we do bad things? Do monsters have to do bad things? You humans have done more bad things than us."
Lots and lots of them!”
Li Mu was stunned for a moment, then said: "Sorry, that's not what I meant. After all, we have experienced life and death together. Don't quarrel as soon as we meet. What on earth are you doing here?"
Hu Jiu originally wanted to take the opportunity to vent, but he didn't expect that the human being in front of him was so polite and would admit his mistake to him, which made him a little confused.
Fan Ji turned her head and said, "You don't have to worry about it!"
Li Mudao: "Why are you like this? Is this how your Tianhu clan talks to your benefactor?"
Fan Ji said calmly: "You and I have evened out our grievances. From now on, no one owes anyone."
Li Mu patted his chest and sighed: "Try your conscience. I have no grudge against you. You were the one who wanted to kill me in the beginning. Later, I saved you regardless of the past grudges, but you said that the grudges are outweighed..."
Fan Ji took a deep breath and asked, "Then what do you want?"
Li Mu smiled and said: "Tell me the cultivation method of the five-tailed spirit fox. From now on, our grudges will be truly cancelled, and no one owes anyone anything."
Fan Ji's heart moved slightly. Although the Fox clan's laws were not spread outside the country, they were not absolute. Using some of their cultivation methods in exchange for Li Mu's recognition of settling the cause and effect with her was a very cost-effective deal for her.
She looked at Li Mu, stretched out her hand, and said, "It's a deal!"
Snapped!
Li Mu reached out and gave her a high-five and said, "It's a deal."
Fan Ji said: "Come here."
Li Mu leaned over and Fan Ji whispered a few words in his ear.
Li Mu naturally knew the cultivation method of the Five Tails of the Fox Clan, and he was just taking this opportunity to eliminate Fan Ji's inner demons and karma. This was the little snake's debt to her.
Although Fan Ji hates him, she is still sincere. The method of cultivation she described is the same as what Li Mu learned from the book of heaven.
However, he still looked at Fan Ji suspiciously and asked, "You didn't just make it up to deceive me, did you?"
Fan Ji said coldly: "I swear by the Sky Fox, if I tell any lies, I will suffer a thunderstorm and die."
After saying that, she stopped looking at Li Mu and said to Hu Liu and Hu Jiu: "Let's go."
The local government has noticed them, and they have also seen people from the military in the county. If they continue to act, it is very likely that they will fall into the hands of the powerful Zhou army.
No matter how unwilling you are, you can only temporarily return to Thousand Fox Country and make long-term plans.
"Wait a minute!"
They had just taken two steps when Li Mu's voice came from behind again.
Fan Ji turned around and frowned: "What else do you have to do?"
Li Mu looked at Fan Ji and said: "I came to Jiujiang County this time on the order of our queen to investigate the Jiujiang County King. Someone reported that the Jiujiang County King connived at his subordinates to do some illegal activities, but I am not familiar with this place.
, I know that you, the Mei Sect, know more about this place, so if you tell me some more clues about this case, we will really owe nothing to the other..."
Hu Jiu and Hu Liu looked at each other and saw joy in each other's eyes.
Although Li Mu was untrue to his word, he just said that the grudges had been wiped out, and now he mentioned it again, but they were worried about how to avenge the little snake and how to save the compatriots who were imprisoned by the Jiujiang County King. They could just use this person...
Fan Ji's eyes flickered, and then she said: "You can help me if you want, but you have to agree to one condition."
Li Mu asked: "What are the conditions?"
Fan Ji said: "The Prince of Jiujiang County also imprisoned many monsters. You have dealt with the Queen of Jiujiang County. I want to take away these monsters."
Li Mu smiled and said, "As long as you are willing to help me, it's easy..."
