When Chu Qingxiao returned to the drug store.

There was still a large group of people surrounding the drug store and they had not dispersed.

When Chu Qingxiao came to the door of the drug store, before he could squeeze into the crowd, someone discovered Chu Qingxiao's presence behind the crowd.

At that moment, the man was startled at first, then his expression changed drastically, and he quickly backed away.

This reaction was also noticed by the companions nearby, and more people became aware of Chu Qingxiao's existence at that time.

So the crowd hurriedly backed away, but the faces of most people were no longer filled with the initial fear or apprehension, but instead were filled with reverence and excitement.

Chu Qingxiao vaguely felt some changes in the attitudes of the onlookers around him.

But he had no intention of delving into it - in the illusion of the eternal night world at that time, he had long been accustomed to being misunderstood and suspected again and again. Chu Qingxiao knew that even among the closest people, it would be difficult to empathize with others. Instead of caring about others view, it is better to be yourself.

Without much hesitation, he walked into the medicine shop along the path that the crowd made way for him.

Song Qingqing and others were still there, and most of the disciples of White Camelback had not left yet, but there was a figure that Chu Qingxiao was familiar with - the master of White Camelback, Fu Zhengliang.

Chu Qingxiao was not surprised by Fu Zhengliang's arrival. After all, the death of an elder from White Camelback was not a small matter. As the peak master of White Camelback, he should be present.

At this moment, he was commanding some disciples to collect Jia Lian's body.

When Chu Qingxiao walked into the drug store, he also noticed Chu Qingxiao's presence.

However, he was not as angry as expected. Instead, he walked to Chu Qingxiao's side with a kind expression, with emotion and solemnity on his face.

"Chu Siming, we have met before." He did not show any contempt for Chu Qingxiao, but instead bowed his hands to Chu Qingxiao.

The attitude is respectful, which is extremely rare for a peak master of Tianxuan Mountain.

Chu Qingxiao was not surprised by this, he also returned the favor.

"I have heard the news about Chu Siming's appointment a long time ago. I should have come to congratulate you, but I was busy with worldly affairs and never had the chance." Fu Zhengliang said this, with a look of emotion on his face: "I didn't expect that you and I would treat you like this. This is how we meet.”

Chu Qingxiao stared at Fu Zhengliang, the expression on his face was a bit intriguing, but he did not answer Fu Zhengliang's words, and just watched quietly.

Fu Zhengliang didn't seem to expect that Chu Qingxiao would react like this. He couldn't help but be stunned. However, for an old fox like him, he had seen too many big scenes, so he quickly recovered and took a look with shame. Jia Lian's body, which had been restrained beside him, said: "It sounds like the old man is incompetent in his teachings."

"Such a wicked person came out of my Bai Hump family."

"Fortunately, I met Chu Siming, and happened to uncover this matter, so that the Xue family and his son, who had died in vain for many years, were brought to justice."

When Fu Zhengliang said this, he turned his head and looked at Xue Sanniang.

A long time has passed since Jia Lian committed suicide, and Xue Sanniang's mind has calmed down a lot, but her eyes are still a little red.

Fu Zhengliang said apologetically: "It was my negligence in employing people that caused this Miss Xue to suffer so many years of injustice. I just brought the land deed of this drug store and returned it to its original owner."

"Also, I have sent people to count the specific amount of profit made by this drug store over the years. Although most of it has been squandered by Jia Lian, I will fill in some of the remaining portion to supply Miss Xue. "

"Of course I know that my father and brother died unjustly. This debt cannot be measured by money, but people cannot be resurrected after death, so this is all we can do."

Fu Zhengliang's words were impeccable and his attitude was extremely sincere, making it impossible for anyone to find any fault with him.

The onlookers outside the drug store were probably a little confused about Chu Qingxiao's troubles and Jia Lian's suicide.

But with Fu Zhengliang's visit, such doubts have been solved——

When Fu Zhengliang arrived, Chu Qingxiao had already left, and the crowd in front of the drug store was noisy.

Some people swore that Jia Lian was bewitched by Chu Qingxiao's evil methods.

Some people are speculating that Chu Qingxiao may be retaliated by Tianxuan Mountain, and that the position of Chief Commander of the Tianxuan Division may be destroyed before it is even warmed up.

No matter what the purpose is, probably no one is optimistic that Chu Qingxiao can solve this matter.

When Fu Zhengliang arrived, everyone confirmed their suspicion.

At first, Fu Zhengliang's reaction was exactly as everyone expected. He looked at his disciples with a gloomy face and asked what happened.

When he learned from his disciples that Chu Qingxiao smashed the medicine shop, injured Jia Shunwen, and forced Jia Lian to death on the pretext of investigating the Huangwu case, he was furious and wanted to attack Meng Jin and others who stayed behind.

Meng Jin and others were also a little nervous at that time. After all, Fu Zhengliang, a major in Shenfeng Peak, was beyond them. If he attacked them, they would have no ability to resist.

However, thinking of what Chu Qingxiao had said when he left, Meng Jin still had the courage to hand another hemp rope to Fu Zhengliang, and told him that it was the one used by the Xue family and his son when they committed suicide in prison out of fear of crime.

As soon as these words came out, Fu Zhengliang's expression suddenly changed.

He took the hemp rope and the file, first looked at the file carefully, and then looked at the hemp rope for a while.

Just when everyone thought that Master Fu Peak was brewing his own anger, Fu Zhengliang suddenly turned his head and became furious at the Jia Lian disciples beside him.

Then he raised the hemp rope, revealing the truth that Xue Cheng, who had cultivated in the Third Realm, could not be strangled to death by a hemp rope.

At that time, everyone around him suddenly realized why Jia Lian would plead guilty and why Chu Qingxiao would put Jia Shunwen on the beam.

After understanding all this, the spectators' perceptions of Chu Qingxiao suddenly changed.

This is why when Chu Qingxiao appeared at the door of the drug store again, the attitude of the onlookers towards Chu Qingxiao changed.

Especially after Fu Zhengliang almost sold Xue Sanniang, who was a victim, to the vassal state, the crowd became even more angry, and their anger towards Jia Lian reached its peak.

But to be honest, when Chu Qingxiao returned and Fu Zhengliang said these words, everyone's hatred for White Hump could not continue to grow.

Obviously, whether it is the way he did not shy away from favoring Jia Lian, or his attitude of not shying away from what happened back then, as well as his sincere words at this moment, to a large extent, everyone felt that what Jia Lian did was just What Jia Lian did alone has little to do with White Camelback.

In Fu Zhengliang's words, he was guilty of negligence at best.

This is also the reason why Fu Zhengliang can become the master of White Hump.

In the shortest possible time, he thought of the best way to protect the face of White Camelback and the interests of White Camelback to the greatest extent.

Chu Qingxiao squinted his eyes and looked at Fu Zhengliang, who was sincere at this moment.

Naturally, he would not be stupid enough to believe Fu Zhengliang's words, but he would also not expose this point.

He knew very well that the onlookers around him were now on his side because he had irrefutable evidence in his hand. Once he took the opportunity to attack, the people who had just been on his side would fall to White Hump again.

He said: "Master Fu Peak does not need to blame himself. You are busy with affairs and it is inevitable that you will make some omissions."

"It happened that when I was investigating the Huangwu case, I found that the names of the Xue family and his son were on the list left by the Bai family, so I wanted to use this as a clue. Unexpectedly, there was no progress in the Huangwu case, but I discovered an unjust case many years ago. , being able to clear the grievances of the Xue family and his son can be considered an unexpected gain."

After hearing the words "Desolate Case", Fu Zhengliang's expression changed obviously, but he quickly added: "Chu Siming is responsible for the great trust of Supervisor Tiansi and Prince Wu's Mansion. He is busy with affairs, but he must also pay attention to rest and don't get tired. Damn yourself."

"Thank you Peak Master Fu for your concern. There are still many suspicious things on the list. I don't dare to neglect them. I just want to find out the truth as soon as possible, find the people behind it, and bring them to justice. At the same time, I can comfort those who are in the deserted area." The person who died in vain in the case also wanted to clear Elder Fu Xuance's name." Chu Qingxiao deliberately emphasized the word innocence, and his eyes when looking at Fu Zhengliang became a little colder.

Fu Zhengliang's face didn't change and he just said: "Thank you for your help, Chu Siming."

Then Fu Zhengliang ordered people to carry away the restrained body, and then left with everyone.

Seeing that the incident had come to an end, the onlookers lost interest in watching, and the crowd gradually dispersed.

The Langsi Medicine Shop suddenly became deserted. Everyone looked at each other, and the atmosphere was a bit dull.

It is certainly a good thing to be able to clear up the grievances of Xue Sanniang's father and brother, but although the revenge was avenged, the Xue family and his son will never be able to live again. Revenge brings not pleasure, but an empty feeling with no goal.

Although everyone is not Xue Sanniang herself, they can somewhat understand this feeling.

They wanted to say something to comfort Xue Sanniang, but when the words came to their lips, they didn't know how to speak.

Chu Qingxiao walked towards Xue Sanniang at this time. Song Qingqing and others also knew that Xue Sanniang needed Chu Qingxiao's comfort at this moment, so they backed away one after another for various reasons.

Chu Qingxiao came to Xue Sanniang, and Xue Sanniang also looked up at him.

She didn't say any words of gratitude. After all, for her and Chu Qingxiao, they had been dependent on each other for life and death, so such words were meaningless.

She just stared at Chu Qingxiao and suddenly said: "Qingxiao."

"If you are free, can you accompany me to visit my father and brother?"

Xue Sanniang's father and brother were buried in a wasteland eighty miles away from the western suburbs of Tianxuan City.

Because they died of guilt, according to the laws of Daxia, their tombs cannot enter official tombs, and can only be buried in sin tombs in the wilderness. Even tombstones cannot be erected, only a number.

After arriving at Tianxuan City, Xue Sanniang never inquired about it because she was afraid of causing trouble to Chu Qingxiao.

Now that the father and son have finally been vindicated, Xue Sanniang naturally wants to pay homage to her father and brother and comfort their souls.

When Chu Qingxiao heard this, he didn't think much, he just nodded and responded.

"good."
