After Su Muchi left the room, she glanced at the remaining decoction residue in the bowl.
She asked: "This soup looks different from before. Has the medicine been changed?"
The servant reported back: "It's a new recipe that the young master found. He still asked Uncle Fu to boil the medicine. We don't know what the medicine is."
Fan Liren's decoctions were all given to his servant Fu Bo. This old man had been in the Fan family for many years. He had watched Fan Liren grow up and had always taken care of Fan Liren.
There is a pharmacy in Fan Mansion, and there is an old man in it, that is Uncle Fu.
There was only one person in the pharmacy, only Fu Bo. No one is allowed to enter this pharmacy, except Uncle Fu.
In short, only Fu Bo is in charge of the whole pharmacy. Even if he keeps taking medicines and decoctions every day, it is still done by Uncle Fu alone. The servant who delivered the medicine could only wait for Uncle Fu to hand the medicine soup out of the window, and then give it to Fan Liren.
After so many years, the servants have become accustomed to it.
Fan Liren trusts Uncle Fu very much and will hand over all herbal prescriptions to Uncle Fu.
Su Muchi looked towards the pharmacy not far away. She couldn't see clearly what was inside, and she wasn't interested.
Although she was a noble person when she married into the Fan Mansion, the whole Su City knew that the eldest young master of the Fan Mansion was a drug addict. That marriage should be considered a happy occasion.
"I wonder how Tuantuan is doing in school?" Su Muci thought.
Yu Zhi handed over the person to her, and she couldn't let Yu Zhi down. Besides, how can a cute child not be liked?
"It's almost nightfall. Yichun, go and bring Tuantuan back."
...
...
In the mountains and forests outside Su City, Yu Zhi was sneaking among them. After entering the seventh level of Kaibei, he became much more courageous.
In the past, he didn't know who wanted to harm him, but he always avoided it.
But after knowing the truth of everything, Yu Zhi felt much calmer, and the fear also dissipated.
This is quite a feeling that you are not afraid of thieves stealing, but you are afraid that thieves will miss you.
Now that the thief has revealed his true colors, there is no need to fear anything else.
After roughly learning the location of the mountain city from Su Ji, Yu Zhi sneaked into the mountains alone. If it were just a group of ordinary bandits, Yu Zhi would wait and see how You Yuanju would solve them.
Now the bandits have kidnapped hundreds of children, and there is a huge mountain city deep in the mountains.
The bandits obviously have ulterior motives, or there may be a bigger conspiracy behind this banditry.
Yu Zhi's guess is - night ghost!
In the wilderness of Cangzhou Prefecture, the empty mountain city was filled with the aura of night ghosts. What about the one Su Ji mentioned?
Is he also a night ghost?
In front of Ye Gui, the collusion between the bandits and Su Chengjun deputy general Chao Dabiao was just a trivial matter.
What Yu Zhi really wants to find out is what is hidden in the mountain city and why the bandits arrested these children.
Is it really like what Su Ji said - to cure the disease and survive?
"Killing young children and eating human hearts can cure all diseases. Take the heart blood and fry ginseng, and you can live for a hundred years."
Yu Zhi smiled silently. Anyone who really believed this rumor was either a lunatic.
You must know that Yu Zhi also suffers from hidden diseases, which have threatened Yu Zhi's life all the time since he was a child. But Yu Zhi would never believe these nonsense.
The actual number of more than 200 children counted by Su Ji must be much higher. Outside Su City, there are thousands of people suffering from banditry on the official roads along the way. What about the six counties under the jurisdiction of the Su City Army?
There are not a few people who suffer there, and there are not a few children who are kidnapped.
The mountain forest at night is like a huge mouth of an abyss. Once you break into it, you will be swallowed up by the night.
"It should be right here." Yu Zhi looked around.
This place is exactly what Su Ji said. From here, if you walk ten miles into the mountains, you can see the city in the mountains.
Su Ji was sure that he remembered correctly, but when he led the soldiers of the Su City Army to search for the second time, he could no longer find the mountain city.
"Ten miles ahead, even if Su Ji really misremembered the direction, it's probably only ten miles in radius." Yu Zhi said.
A radius of ten miles is not big, but in this deep mountain, there are many hills within a radius of ten miles. Yu Zhi knew that it would take a long time to run through these hills and he would be very tired.
If you are less lucky, you may have to walk the entire ten miles.
At this moment, Yu Zhi couldn't help but think of Wu Hua. "If there is a little monk, it should be much easier to find."
The secrets of Buddhism are mysterious and unpredictable. Wuhua can discover the mountain city in Cangzhou Prefecture, and there is no need to worry about it.
Unexpectedly, a sneeze sounded in the forest.
"Who is it?" Yu Zhixun asked, and a figure walked out of the night not far away.
"Amitabha, Brother Yu, long time no see."
"Little monk?"
His clear eyes and shiny head shined in the faint moonlight.
"It's the little monk." Wuhua clasped his hands together and said. "Xiao Monk is still wondering who is talking about Xiao Monk. It turns out to be you, Brother Yu."
Really, whatever comes to mind... Yu Zhi excitedly stepped forward, put his arm around Wu Hua's shoulders, and asked, "Why are you here?"
Wuhua was also surprised to meet Yu Zhi here. After he saved the souls of the dead in that mountain city, he immediately rushed to Su City. There was no stopping at all along the way.
Until tonight, he once again felt the overwhelming resentment.
Buddhism saves the world and is extremely sensitive to wronged souls. This is my intuition after many years of burning incense, worshiping Buddha and chanting sutras. Even if you don't use Buddhist secrets, encountering gods and ghosts will make people in Buddhism feel emotional.
Before Wuhua could speak, Yu Zhi said first, "Did you sense something again?"
Wuhua lamented and asked, "What really happened here?" He very much hoped that his perception was wrong.
The two looked at each other, exchanged glances, and sighed almost at the same time.
Yu Zhi told Wu Hua the whole story, from the bandits' looting to the kidnapping of young children, to another mountain city that happened in Suji, everything seemed to be able to guess the truth, but the closer to the truth, the closer I don’t know what to do.
"Little monk, do you think these people will use the source of night ghosts to mutate wild beasts like black tigers in captivity?" Yu Zhi asked with a frown. "The city in the mountain that Su Ji described to me is almost the same as what we saw that day. I'm afraid that the tragedy in the city will happen again here."
What worries Yu Zhi most is that these abducted children are being used as food for wild animals.
If I hadn't met Black Tiger on the way, I would have discovered the city in the mountain.
Yu Zhi would not speculate on these aspects at all. His only guess was that children were being sold. This trafficker's business is a big money-making business.
Previously, the scene in that mountain city was too horrifying. Countless human bones were stacked together. There were countless piles of bones like tombs, filled with a cold atmosphere, as if countless innocent souls were roaring.
Even now recalling the scene at that time, Yu Zhi still felt his scalp numb.
Wuhua sighed "Amitabha" again, and then said: "The young monk saw that there was so much resentment here, so he went in to investigate. But he didn't expect that there was a city in the mountain here. As Brother Yu said, I am afraid that in this mountain There are many innocent souls who died tragically.”
Yu Zhi had an idea and asked, "Can you follow this resentment and find the city in the mountain here?"
Wuhua looked up and looked into the depths of the night. The secret technique of Xuankong Temple allowed Wuhua to more clearly feel the resentment after death.
After a while, Wuhua nodded and said: "Brother Yu, follow the young monk!"
Two figures shuttled quickly through the mountain forest. They were like wild beasts foraging at night. They smelled the smell of food and were hunting and hunting.
The direction the two of them headed was exactly the direction Su Ji pointed.
Yu Zhixin said: It seems that Su Ji remembered it correctly.
For the two of them, a ten-mile journey is just the time it takes to burn an incense stick.
Yu Zhi and Wuhua came to another mountain forest, but there was no mountain city in front of them as Su Ji mentioned.
What Su Ji said is true. During the second search in the mountains, Su Chengjun did not find the city in the mountains.
Yu Zhi frowned and checked around the area. After a while, his frown deepened.
"There is nothing here." Yu Zhi said.
Wuhua also looked puzzled and said: "The closer you get here, the heavier the resentment becomes. Almost all the resentment emanates from here, so the monk can be sure that there must be something weird here."
Yu Zhi said again: "Could it be that there were some formations or exotic treasures that covered up this mountain city? Su Ji said that they also discovered the mountain city by accident, but when he led Su Cheng's army to search for the second time, Then I can no longer find the original place. Someone must have used some kind of deception."
Wuhua's body was full of true energy, golden light was rippling, and Buddhist scriptures were written all over the ground, rushing in all directions like a tide.
In an instant, the entire dark forest became extremely sacred.
After about half a cup of tea, Wuhua calmed down his energy, and the surging golden light dissipated like fireflies.
Yu Zhi asked: "How?"
Wu Hua shook his head and said: "The young monk has limited cultivation and cannot detect the secrets. However, the young monk can be sure that there is a maze here that blocks our exploration."
Yu Zhi also looked troubled, and suddenly felt like he would miss the book when it is used. There is Yun Jin's formation inheritance in General Jia, but he has not practiced it for a long time.
Otherwise, there is no need to be blocked by the maze today.
Different from the mist formation of the fog ghost, the current maze formation has no clue. It is difficult for even the little monk Wuhua to understand the secrets of Buddhism, let alone Yu Zhi.
Yu Zhi was unwilling to go back like this. He thought about it carefully and said with a ruthless face, "I still don't believe that some bullshit maze can block my way?"
Wuhua said: "If you want to break the formation, you have to find the eye and destroy the objects. But if we can't break through this maze, how can we find the eye?"
Yu Zhi smiled coldly, and the moonlight poured on Yu Zhi's figure, making the smile even colder.
"Who said I want to break the formation?"
If you practice and pass on the formation in Jia Li, it may be of use. But this will come again in the year of the monkey and the month of the horse.
Cramming for the moment only wastes time.
Yu Zhi took out a stack of red fire talismans from his arms, gave a portion to Wuhua, and said, "Since we can't find the maze, let's blow it up!"
Hey hey hey, I blew up this damn place!
