Han Xian and Zhou Lingfeng both looked at Kun Yuan in surprise.
Kun Yuan was also a little confused. Did this person know him?
But he doesn’t know the man in the prison?
"You know me? But how can I..." Kun Yuan said slowly.
The man in the cell patted his chest and said, "My master is Taoist Master Kunpeng. I joined the master late, but I was fortunate enough to be valued by Master Yunlan and sent to Daliang to handle affairs.
"On the first day I entered the sect, I saw Master Kun Yuan fighting with my master. You are so young, and you are the youngest Master Master in Kun's generation.
"But your Taoist attainments are the most talented and potential among all the disciples of Kun Dynasty! From the first day they entered the master's sect, the disciples have especially admired my uncle!"
Kun Yuan frowned and nodded... He did compete with his senior brother last year when the sect was recruiting new students.
That was the "recruitment ceremony" arranged by Uncle Yunlan.
"When did you come to Daliang and what were you here to do?" Kun Yuan asked.
The man opened his mouth to say excitedly, but he suddenly looked at Han Xian and Zhou Lingfeng, "Who...are these two?"
Kun Yuan coughed lightly, "These are the senior brothers who were older than me. Their talents and potential are even greater than mine. They were sent down the mountain to practice early and have been practicing in the world, so you newcomers have never seen them."
"Oh..." The man nodded and bowed, "Hello, uncle!"
Han Xian and Zhou Lingfeng kept their faces straight and remained silent.
Uncle Kunyuan, please take me out quickly. The environment in this prison is really bad. Not only is it dark and damp, but there are also such big rats. It’s so disgusting! "
The man made gestures with his hands.
The mouse he gestured with was bigger than the cat.
Zhou Lingfeng raised his hand and flicked a Taoist talisman into the prison.
The Taoist talisman was pasted on the wall of the cell, and the cell suddenly felt like it was being heated by the warm sun.
A soft sigh of relief came from the man's throat.
But he quickly stared at the three people outside the cell door and said, "Uncles, this cell is comfortable, and I don't want to stay here.
"It's not that I don't want to, it's that I can't! Master and Master Yunlan have assigned me a mission."
Kun Yuan nodded and said, "Of course I know you have a mission, otherwise why would I be here? What's your mission? You haven't said it yet, how do I know if the person I want to save is you?"
The man stared at Kun Yuan in astonishment, "Of course it's me, who else could it be if it wasn't me? Uncle Master, just count it with your fingers, don't you know?"
Kun Yuan snorted coldly, "Are you working for Uncle Teacher?"
"No... Master said, you can't talk about this matter to others..."
Kun Yuan put on a bad face, "Then you wait for your master to come and save you. Brothers, let's go."
Kun Yuan turned around and walked out.
The man opened his mouth in surprise, "Hey, uncles, masters...really, really leaving? Save me, save me!"
Just as they were about to leave the prison, they turned a corner and lost sight of them.
The man shouted, "I said, I said, Uncle Kunyuan, come back!"
Kun Yuan nodded towards Zhou Lingfeng and Han Xian.
He went in alone.
Han Xian and Zhou Lingfeng left the prison and walked towards the carriage.
The two came to the car window and reported the situation in the prison to the emperor and empress in the car.
"Are they really from Qingcheng Mountain?" Wen Jin raised his eyebrows, "Has the cold food powder they sell been quietly circulated among the powerful in Kyoto?"
Wen Jin squinted his eyes. During the Wei and Jin Dynasties, it became a common practice for nobles to take cold food. It is considered beautiful for men to apply powder on their faces and wear hairpins on their heads.
How weak did the young man become in the end?
If you can get on a horse without being supported, get on or off a carriage, or step on a horse stool, you will be praised as a brave man! So cool! Handsome!
"Your Majesty, if the cold food spreads among the dignitaries in our capital, it will be very detrimental to our Daliang.
"Therefore, there is a strong dependence on the drug. Initially, it will make people feel energetic, and their physical condition will suddenly return to that of a young adult.
"But once you take it for a period of time and become dependent on it, it will quickly corrode your will. Without this medicine, you will feel restless.
"The toxicity of this medicine accumulates in the body and makes people feel hot. The reason why it is called 'Hanshi Powder' is because this medicine makes people feel hot from within.
"I can't eat hot food, and I have to wear very thin clothes in winter. My skin is sensitive and I can't stand the friction of fabrics..."
Wen Jin leaned into Xiao Yuchen's ear and added a few more words, "The desire is too strong...but I have to increase the dosage of medicine to fully enjoy it."
Xiao Yuchen frowned, "This is a vicious cycle."
Wen Jin said, "Yes! So I asked the emperor for permission to release this little Taoist priest and ordered someone to follow him secretly in order to destroy his den and prevent this medicine from continuing to spread in Kyoto."
Xiao Yuchen nodded and said, "Yes!"
Wen Jin also got off the carriage, and Kun Yuan just came out of the prison.
Wen Jin waved to him.
Kun Yuan immediately blushed and trotted over, "Mother..."
Wen Jin said, "Let him out, can you follow him without being discovered and find his lair?"
Kun Yuan thought for a while, then nodded slowly, "You can do it, poor Taoist!"
Wen Jin smiled slightly and said, "Okay, then I'll take care of this matter."
Kun Yuan's face turned even redder, "Your Majesty, you are so polite. As a member of Qingcheng Mountain, but you see your fellow disciples doing such things that go against the will of heaven, I can't just stand by and watch... Thank you, Your Majesty, for giving me the opportunity to make amends." !”
Wen Jin looked at him, "How is Taoist Master Kunyuan? Are you still dependent on that medicine?"
Kun Yuan listened to her concerned voice and felt her gentle gaze... His heart was pounding so fast that it almost jumped out of his throat.
"No...it's okay. The honey medicine given by the empress is very good. Not only can it resist the dependence on the cold food powder, but it can also help Pindao's energy and cultivation.
"This is the nourishing medicine that truly complies with the way of heaven and is the good medicine of heaven and earth."
The more Kun Yuan talked, the more embarrassed he became.
Wen Jin took out another small bottle and said, "There are three more pills here. Taoist Master Kunyuan has not rested yet, so he has to work hard again."
"It's very important to find their lair. Thank you for your hard work. If you are weak or the strength of Hanshi Powder is coming back, this medicine will definitely help the Taoist Master."
Kun Yuan glanced at Wen Jin and quickly took it with both hands.
Wen Jin, Xiao Yuchen and others left first.
Kun Yuan went to the jailer of Jingzhao Mansion to sign a bond and took the man out of prison.
He walked out of the cell door in a high-spirited manner and pouted at the jailer triumphantly.
"Did you see that there are people above us! They bullied me because they thought I was a foreigner? Humph!"
"Let's go." Kun Yuan closed his eyes.
These new disciples recruited by Qingcheng Mountain are getting worse and worse.
It was almost dawn when Kun Yuan led the man out of the prison.
"You have a place to live, right? You go back and do your work. Uncle Yun Lan also left me with a task." Kun Yuan waved his hand, "Let's say goodbye."
"No, uncle, you saved the disciple, the disciple has to treat you to a meal!" the man said with cupped hands.
Kun Yuan waved his hand, "Uncle, can I still care about you?"
Kun Yuan took the first step.
The man kept watching him go away, then looked around and saw that no one was following him, and then left quickly.
