As usual, Lu Jing also asked Butcher He about his whereabouts some time before he lost his memory.
As a result, Butcher He said that he was in the butcher shop most of the time. Because He's butcher shop is the most popular butcher shop in Lingyang County, it is open every day before dawn.
He works until all the meat is sold out, and it's almost sunset. Butcher He usually chooses to have a few drinks in his own yard, and then goes to a nearby village to buy pigs and sheep.
Lu Jing then asked Butcher He if he had been to Zhang's house, and received a negative answer from the latter. As for Yue Ru, Butcher Zhang's wife, he had never heard of it.
In other words, there is no intersection between the two.
Ma Bancheng's mother Liu and the butcher also didn't know each other.
As a result, Lu Jing's plan to use the three people's common life trajectories to circle the location of the strange creature was ruined.
However, Lu Jing did not give up. After leaving He's butcher shop, he quickly went to Ma's Mansion.
When he learned that Director Yang came to the door again yesterday to save people, Ma Bancheng didn't even bother to put on his shoes, so he ran to the door in a hurry, shouting as he ran, "Director Yang, where is Director Yang?!"
"Good morning, Mr. Ma..." Lu Jing was still greeting Ma Bancheng, but the latter had already grabbed his arm.
"Don't say that these are all available, Taoist Master Ma, my mother fainted again shortly after you left yesterday! She hasn't woken up until now. Please give her some more elixirs."
Lu Jing was not surprised by this. Yesterday, he used his deep inner strength to warm and nourish Liu's meridians, which made her look better. However, this was only temporary.
Internal strength is not a panacea that can cure all diseases, especially for an old man like Liu who is old and frail and whose meridians throughout his body have atrophied.
In fact, given her physical condition, even if Lu Jing used his internal strength to nurse her back every day, she would not survive more than half a month.
However, Lu Jing later used his inner strength to kill Liu, because his inner strength was worthless and would be consumed no matter what.
Ma Bancheng was relieved to see his mother waking up again, but after what happened yesterday, he also knew that Liu's physical improvement was only temporary, and he would faint again at some point.
So he was also thinking about how to keep Taoist Yang in front of him in Lingyang County forever. I wonder if a Taoist temple can do it?
Just when Ma Bancheng was thinking about what price to use to impress Lu Jing, Lu Jing unexpectedly spoke first, "Mr. Ma, is there a place for decoction in your house?"
Ma Bancheng was shocked when he heard this. He just thought that Lu Jing had some new panacea that he was going to fry for his mother, so he immediately said, "Master Yang, wait a moment, I will have someone clean up a room for you so that you can fry it specially." medicine."
"No, no, I just want to borrow a fire," Lu Jing waved, "I don't want a new house."
Seeing Lu Jing's firm tone, Ma Bancheng stopped insisting and asked someone to take Lu Jing to the place where he usually cooks medicine.
When he got there, Lu Jing kicked out the two maids who were planning to help him and everyone else in the room, leaving him alone.
Although some people felt strange about this, they didn't think much about it. They just thought that Lu Jing didn't want his prescription to be leaked. In addition, there was nothing valuable in the room where the medicine was cooked, so no one had it. What objection.
After closing the door, Lu Jing started the fire first, but he didn't have any medicine to fry. The reason why he came here was just to see if he could get any clues from here.
Speaking of which, Ma Bancheng reminded Lu Jing when he asked for the elixir.
Judging from Ms. Liu's physical condition, she has obviously been ill for a long time, but she has been fine before. Could it be because a miracle doctor prescribed powerful prescriptions for her and helped stabilize her condition?
However, for unknown reasons, the miracle doctor disappeared just like the child Yue Ru, and the traces he left in this world were also erased.
As a result, Liu lost her prescription and her condition began to worsen.
Similarly, the same situation happened with Butcher He. The person who taught him the art of killing pigs disappeared, and Butcher He also forgot what that person taught him.
And this also explains why he can still kill pigs now, but he is no longer as clean as before.
This is because he still has so many years of experience in killing pigs, but the most important technique has been forgotten by him.
In addition, this also solved another doubt that Lu Jing had, which was why Liu, Yueru and Butcher He had no intersection with each other.
Because these three people are not the real owners who came into contact with the strange thing, but the people who were affected after the real owner disappeared.
The reason why Lu Jing borrowed the decoction room from Ma Bancheng was to confirm his suspicion.
He didn't expect to find the prescription here, because it was almost impossible for such an item that came directly from the owner's hands to still exist in this world, but it seemed that the ability of the strange thing was not perfect at present.
Otherwise, Yueru, who had gone crazy, would not still have the memory of her child, even though she was a little crazy, and Lu Jing later saw some clues in the accounts of Zhang Mansion.
Everything related to the baby boy was basically gone, but Lu Jing saw some expenses from the account that seemed to be to help pregnant women maintain their health.
What Lu Jing is looking for in this decoction shop is similar indirect evidence.
As a result, he did gain something after a quarter of an hour.
Lu Jing picked up a few pieces of dried medicinal herbs under the stove, and then found some medicinal residues in the corner on the other side. From visual inspection, they should have been left behind by someone accidentally knocking over the casserole while cooking medicinal herbs a month ago. .
Lu Jing took some and wrapped it in oil paper, then found some licorice and Pangdahai from the medicine box on the other side, and sprinkled some randomly into the boiling water on the fire.
After going out, he told the two maids at the side to wait for the soup on the stove to cool down before feeding Mrs. Liu to drink it, and then drifted away.
After leaving Ma's Mansion, Lu Jing immediately found a drug store and spent twenty taels of silver to find the most senior pharmacist in the drug store and asked him to help identify the ingredients in the pieces of dried herbs and the dregs.
When the final results came out, Lu Jing learned that one of the dried herbs was very rare, and the old pharmacist could not distinguish all the herbs inside because the residue was so old.
However, he has been selling medicine for so many years and is familiar with most of the prescriptions, so he can assure Lu Jing that this prescription is not an ordinary prescription, at least their drug store has never caught this prescription.
To be cautious, Lu Jing then visited three other pharmacies in the city, and all received the same answers. Lu Jing also had a preliminary understanding of the capabilities of the monster he was going to deal with this time.
