After Ling'er took care of Teng Fei's wife, Teng Fei personally took Ji Cangyu and his party of nine to a quiet courtyard and arranged for them to stay there temporarily.
But Teng Fei disappeared after that. He didn't even show up for lunch, and only let his men entertain them warmly.
Teng Fei's avoidance made Ji Cangyu and his party a little anxious after finally entering Beifeng Village, because their investigation had not made any substantial progress.
So after lunch, Ji Cangyu called everyone into the room to discuss countermeasures.
"I thought we were halfway there when we arrived at Beifeng Village, but now it seems we're still standing still." Zhong Gong said frustratedly.
"That's not necessarily true. Teng Fei can hide from us for a while, but he can't hide from us forever. Sooner or later, he will have to give us an explanation." Gong Ming said.
"Well, he's just not ready to face us yet." Ji Cangyu said.
"Then what should we do? Can we just wait?" Zhong Long asked.
"Actually, there is one thing that Ji can't figure out. Don't you think it's too much of a coincidence that Teng Fei's wife suddenly became seriously ill and then had to come to Ling'er for treatment? Let's not talk about his wife's serious illness. Talking about how they learned that Ling'er knew medical skills. Ji remembered that he had never brought Ling'er to meet anyone from Beifeng Village," Ji Cangyu said.
"It's really unusual! Things are going too smoothly, right?" Zhong Gong said.
"Could it be that God is not helping us, but someone is secretly helping us?" Zhong Long speculated.
"Actually..." Ling'er and Zhang Ziran said in unison.
"Girl, please speak first!" Zhang Ziran made a gesture of invitation.
Ling'er nodded and said, "There is something I haven't told you yet. There is someone who is secretly helping us."
"Who is it?" Zhong Long interrupted impatiently.
"It's the 'Uncle Yang' mentioned by the maid Bing'er." Ling'er replied.
"What's going on?" Ji Cangyu asked.
Ling'er said: "Teng Fei's wife is not sick, but has been poisoned by a poison called 'heart erosion'. This poison is very special. The pulse of the poisoned person is not abnormal, so it is difficult for doctors to diagnose her. "
"No wonder Teng Fei is so anxious, saying that other doctors are helpless." Zhong Long couldn't help but interrupt.
Ji Cangyu signaled Ling'er with his eyes to continue.
"Teng Fei came to me because of the recommendation of the maid Bing'er, but Bing'er listened to Uncle Yang. More importantly, Uncle Yang also told Bing'er that I used to take slow medicine and it would take a few days to cure it. Madam's illness is cured." Ling'er added.
"This is buying time for our investigation. Because he guessed that Teng Fei would evade our questioning." Ji Cangyu said.
"So, this poison was also administered by Uncle Yang?" Zhong Gong said in confusion, "Has he been prepared for it? Otherwise, where would he find such a special poison?"
"That's not necessary. The medicinal materials used to prepare 'Erosion Heart' are very common and can be picked in the mountains." Ling'er said.
"Then he must be proficient in medical science. Who could he be?" Zhong Gong frowned.
"It doesn't matter who he is, as long as you know he is a friend and not an enemy." Zhong Long said with a smile.
"I'm afraid we are enemies rather than friends!" Gong Ming said.
Zhang Ziran, who had been silent until now, suddenly said: "That Uncle Yang should not be an enemy! I seem to know who he is."
As soon as these words came out, everyone fell silent and looked at Zhang Ziran.
Zhang Ziran was stunned for a moment before continuing: "From your description, he should be from the Yixing Clan. But I cannot reveal his identity."
Xu Jun, who had been sitting quietly from the beginning to the end, narrowed his eyes when he heard this, thinking that Yixingmen was still involved in this matter!
Zhong Long said with a smile: "It turns out they are from the Yixing Clan! It doesn't matter who they are, they are all our own! You can rest assured."
Gong Ming asked Zhang Ziran with a sullen face: "Why don't I know about this?"
"Captain, I only found out last night. He also asked me not to spread the word." Zhang Ziran quickly explained.
"Did anyone come last night?" Gong Ming looked embarrassed. He was watching outside and didn't notice?
"Ah! That's the black shadow I saw last night!" Zhong Long said excitedly, "I felt something flash by."
"Jimou didn't notice anything strange. It seems that this friend's Qinggong is very good!" Ji Cangyu praised.
Light kung fu and high strength? Ling'er was startled and suddenly thought of Qi Yang. But she immediately overturned this idea. Qi Yang should be in Xiayun Ridge at the moment.
But when Ling'er thought of the heart-pounding gaze she met outside the door yesterday, she suddenly felt a little more hopeful. If that Yixing sect member is Brother Qi Yang, then will I be able to see him soon?
"It seems that shopkeeper Wu misunderstood Yixingmen. The Yixingmen did not stand idly by after leaving. They just used other methods to investigate." Zhong Gong said.
"But I wonder if this friend has investigated anything?" Ji Cangyu asked Zhang Ziran.
Zhang Ziran shook his head and said, "He didn't say anything. He came over last night just to ask about our plan. I told him that Master Ji wanted to see Teng Fei but encountered difficulties."
"I see, no wonder he would help. If there is a chance, please ask Brother Zhang to exchange information with him. After all, he has been investigating here for a long time." Ji Cangyu said.
"Okay. However, I don't know how to contact him." Zhang Ziran frowned.
"Can't we just ask Uncle Yang if we find him?" Zhong Long said innocently.
"Zhong Long, please don't act recklessly. Your reckless behavior will most likely expose his identity and affect his investigation." Ji Cangyu hurriedly stopped him, "If that friend is unwilling to reveal his identity to us, That’s it.”
"I'll try my best," Zhang Ziran said.
"Then please leave it to Brother Zhang." Ji Cangyu said with a smile.
"So what if Teng Fei always avoids me?" Gong Ming asked.
Ji Cangyu thought for a while and asked Ling'er, "When will Teng Fei's wife wake up?"
"The soup is almost ready. She will wake up after drinking the soup to detoxify her." Ling'er replied, "Do you want me to start with Madam?"
"That's right. Teng Fei would rather reveal his whereabouts to us in order to save his wife, which shows that his wife has some weight in his heart. If his wife can persuade her with a few words, he will definitely listen." Ji Cangyu said.
"Then how should I persuade his wife?" Ling'er was a little embarrassed. If she was asked to save patients, she was still somewhat confident, but if she was asked to persuade others, she was a little unable to do so.
Ji Cangyu knew that Ling'er was simple-minded and did not understand the ways of the world, so he said: "His wife will definitely express her gratitude to you after she wakes up. You just need to find a way to have Teng Fei personally host a banquet for us."
Ling'er thought for a while, then nodded and said, "Then let me try it!"
