Under the attention of the person guarding the door, Cao Mo closed the wooden door calmly and appeared in the corridor outside the house.

"Old man, how is the situation of my village leader?"

"The situation is relatively stable."

The same conversation has been repeated many times in the past few days.

Because he still wanted to take advantage of Lin Pan's life and death, he had been giving Lin Pan medicine on time these past few days.

For him, who is already a poisoner, delaying the spread of poison is a relatively simple matter.

But in the eyes of everyone in the village, he had been diligently delivering medicine for days. Although he failed to detoxify the village owner, it was true that he delayed the onset of the poison.

Therefore, Cao Mo had gradually won the trust of everyone in the stronghold. This was proven by the fact that he had just entered Lin Pan's room alone to give him medicine and no one had stopped him.

In the small pharmacy not far away, the aroma of medicinal herbs spreads to the aisle through the open window, and the medicine is still simmering on the small earthen stove.

Cao Mo lowered his head, hunched his upper body, and slowly walked towards the place that belonged to him step by step.

In the eyes of the people at the door who fell on Cao Mo, they saw that he was just an old man with some medical skills and no strength. If anything happened to the boss, they could end Cao Mo's life at any time.

The world is so sad and ridiculous. These people may not know until their death whether they are sheep in the tiger's mouth or wolves in the flock.

Cao Mo doesn't care about the life or death of these people at all. They are just tools he uses to complete his mission. When the time comes, these people can only seek blessings for themselves because they don't know the inextricable connections between them and survive. Otherwise, they will die. Like Lin Xing, he never knew that he had been taken advantage of before he died.

Cao Mo already possesses fourth-level strength and has an extraordinary ear. He was about to step into the pharmacy when he stopped.

There was a lot of movement at the entrance of the village. It must be Lin Wen and others who had gone out and returned.

"I wonder if there is any whereabouts of Lin Xing's group?"

With these things in mind, Cao Mo stopped at the door, planning to wait for the group of people. He could also take this opportunity to speed up the search for medicine.

Mu Qing was now among the people in Iron Bone Village. Lin Wen had just returned to the village and didn't even want to waste time talking to Lin Tian who was waiting at the door. He asked Lao Balin Town to explain the current situation while directly talking to everyone. The brothers walked towards Lin Pan's house, surrounded by Mu Qing.

Liu Weirui, Li Si and others are still outside the village. Originally, everyone would be escorted into the village, but because Mu Qing went to Lin Wen directly and said that it was important to save people, they were allowed to block the crowd outside the village gate. The caravan remained there, now being guarded by thirty or forty men.

If there was no one to guard them, Liu Weirui and the others could actually just force their way through the pass set up on the other side of the trade road. However, Mu Qing had already entered the village, and everyone in the caravan really admired his ability to save people, so they planned to respond as usual. Ever changing.

If you can't do something, you can't save people.

Everyone also believed that Mu Qing, who did not need to worry about the safety of himself and others to save others like before, could easily come out of the village and join everyone.

Except for one person in the middle, all the people walking towards him were familiar faces. Cao Mo stood by the corridor pillars and looked at them quietly.

"Mr. Cao, how is my elder brother doing?"

Lin Wen and Lin Zhun walked at the front of the group, holding Mu Qing's arm. When they saw Cao Mo not far ahead, he quickened his steps and separated from the crowd, and hurriedly walked towards Cao Mo to ask.

"Second Master, the situation is quite stable. As the old saying goes, it takes Nine Turns of Fire Flame Grass to completely remove the poison from the First Master."

Cao Mo pulled at his gray beard and looked distressed. He looked at Mu Qing among the crowd from the corner of his eye and said to Lin Wen.

"I don't know, who is this person?" Cao Mo glanced at Mu Qing.

He clearly felt Lin Wen's current respect for him from the change of title, so he took this opportunity to ask Lin Wen a little more than the rules.

When Lin Wen heard this, he paused. He thought that these old men with some medical skills are the most precious. You can beat him and scold him, but you can't doubt his medical skills. And the old man in front of him does have some medical skills. Now arrest him. I don’t know if it’s okay to come here. My eldest brother’s condition is uncertain and I have to rely on him in the end.

He then said perfunctorily: "Oh, this is a caravan leader we just captured. He now wants to prove his worth."

"Mr. Cao, you can leave first. I'll go see my elder brother first."

Cao Mo didn't want to ask anymore. He quietly glanced at Lin Tian who was beside Lao Balin Town, nodded, and stepped out of the way.

"Don't know what to call me yet?"

"The second boss can just call me Mu Qing."

Mu Qing was led into Lin Pan's bedridden room by Lin Wen and others, and now they knew each other's identities.

Lin Wen did not exchange too many pleasantries. He pointed to the bed where Lin Pan was lying on and said straight to the point: "Brother Mu Qing, don't talk nonsense. My eldest brother was poisoned in wine by a gangster a few days ago. Please take a look first. Say it again."

After he finished speaking, several people around him approached Mu Qing. If Mu Qing couldn't tell him something, they would send him home immediately.

Mu Qing pretended not to know what the people in the room were thinking, and slowly approached Lin Pan's bed with steady steps.

He squatted beside the bed, stretched out his fingers, and gently placed them on Lin Pan's wrist pulse.

Thinking together, the special internal force in the body separated into a very small stream and entered Lin Pan's body directly along his fingers.

The other people in Iron Bone Village saw that Mu Qing was not pretending, so they walked out. Now only Lin Wen and Lin Zhun were left standing in the room, looking at Mu Qing quietly.

"Hoo~"

Half a quarter of an hour later, Mu Qing's fingers left Lin Pan's wrist. He stood up and turned around and said, "It's a poison called Dripping Blood Cold. It really requires Nine Turns of Nether Flame Grass."

For Mu Qing, who is fully aware of various poisons, it is not difficult to recognize that this is the poison "Drip Blood Cold" that ranks high in the hearts of all pharmacists. What he is now thinking about is what to do next.

Lin Wen nodded when he heard this. Before, he had not said what kind of poison his eldest brother was poisoned with. With two pieces of evidence, he could prove that Mu Qing had medical skills.

Before he could speak, Lin Zhun, who was beside him, was impatient and said, "We all know this. We haven't found the Nine-turn Nether Flame Grass yet. Didn't you say that you have done some research on this before?"

Lin Wen followed and said: "It's very simple. If you can cure my brother's poison, I can promise you that not only will your caravan pass through our village safely this time, but our village will also remember you in the future." As a favor, I won’t charge you tolls.”

Lin Wen paused and continued: "If you, the boy, are delaying time in front of our brothers and instead delay my brother's condition, then you and your caravan will be dead."

"Can."

Mu Qing also knew at this time that hesitation would make the other party less confident and doubtful about his medical skills, so he simply said: "My family's medical skills are passed down from generation to generation, and we do have a unique secret recipe for this kind of poison, but we cannot reveal it to others due to family rules. Please give up the room, both of you."

"Second brother, no, we don't know where this kid came from. We can't let him be alone in a room with my eldest brother so easily."

Lin Zhun immediately refused.

The format of the scene was reversed, with the guest taking the host position. Mu Qing shook his head. He did not want his secret to be revealed to others, and said firmly, "I think the master has been poisoned for half a month. If he still can't find the Nine-turn Nether Flame Grass, it's really difficult." Knowing how long it can be delayed, I ask you two to make a decision as soon as possible."

Lin Wen stood aside, silent for a moment, and said, "Okay! It's up to you. I won't say any more threats. Just know the consequences."

Mu Qing nodded and said: "In addition, it needs to be mixed with some medicinal materials such as blood and schisandra chinensis."

The village had already prepared enough medicinal materials such as a little blood to detoxify Lin Pan, so Lin Wen readily agreed.

"I'll have the medicine delivered to you right away."

"Okay, it will take about half an hour to detoxify the master."

Cao Mo handed the sorted medicinal materials to the people who came to ask for them. He said casually, "Whoever needs these medicinal materials, I can help brew them."

The person who came to the pharmacy to pick up the medicine was a minion who obeyed the order. He replied: "The second master asked for it by name. He said it was delivered to the first master's house, but I don't know."

Cao Mo didn't continue to investigate. After the others left, he called for Lin Tian, ​​the fourth master.

After Lin Tian came to his room, he asked directly: "Old man Cao, I am busy now, what do you want from me?"

Lin Tian was just leading dozens of people to guard the caravan. Someone came to tell him that it was Old Man Cao who was looking for him. According to his personality, he would have ignored it, but he didn't know if he had taken someone else's medicine in the morning. He subconsciously didn't. reject.

Lin Tian didn't understand the various reasons, but how could Cao Mo not know.

The nightmare insect's child Gu had gradually penetrated into Lin Tian's brain. Because the mother and child Gu were very close to each other, Cao Mo was able to control Lin Tian's thoughts very easily, and the person involved did not realize that he was being controlled.

The current situation is actually a role play. Cao Mo gradually got the information he wanted to know through the mother Gu and the child Gu.

"Who are the people outside the village?"

"Second brother and the others captured a caravan this morning."

"Is the caravan returning to Jinguan City?"

"no."

"Is there Nine-turn Nether Flame Grass in the caravan?"

"No."

"Who just entered the village master's room?"

"Oh, it's the leader of the caravan. He wants us to let them go by rescuing my brother."

Cao Mo looked at Lin Tian in front of him and frowned.

He had just heard that a caravan had been captured, and he was filled with joy, thinking that he was the real owner.

As a result, I asked based on the information I learned from my employer and compared the two, and found that this was not the case.

I don't know if the person who was caught and detoxified was really capable. Lin Pan's poisoning was a prerequisite for him to take advantage of everyone.

Cao Mo discovered that since Lin Xing's death, the situation was gradually getting out of control.

He originally planned to send Lin Tian out, but he was unwilling to do so, so he finally asked: "Is the leader of the guard in the caravan named Li Si?"

"Oh, it's true. That boy just had a conflict with the brother who was guarding them. He seems to be quite strong."

Lin Tian's calm reply made Cao Mo's eyes light up.

He realized that he had just walked into a misunderstanding. Since he could be called "Cao Baiji" and disguised for so many days, it was normal for a caravan that walked on the road all year round to tell nonsense information.

He asked Lin Tian some more detailed questions to determine the identity of the caravan, and finally confirmed that it was the target caravan.

"Haha, it's really... It's really hard to find anything without wearing iron shoes. It takes no effort at all."

Cao Mo didn't want to make any more mistakes, so he put his right hand in his sleeve and used his inner strength to force out a trace of blood essence from the tip of his index finger, and quietly fed it to the female nightmare insect Gu in his sleeve.

He strengthened his control over the mother Gu. Face to face at such a close distance, he directly controlled Lin Tian's thoughts and emotions, and instilled in him an idea that he shouldn't have:

My eldest brother has been put to death, and all the caravans outside must die!
