When Bai Lang returned to the medical clinic, except that he had an extra jade box in his hand, Bai Lang couldn't see any different emotions from before. And Dr. Zhang, who cultivates human essence, doesn't ask too many questions.
After practicing day and night to heal his injuries, and using Dr. Zhang's secret medicine for internal and external repair, Bai Lang was allowed to leave after staying in the hospital for ten days. After that, you only need to come back every three days to change the medicine.
The injuries on the ribs and neck healed the fastest, and now you basically don’t feel any discomfort or pain as long as you don’t knead them. It's just that sometimes you feel itchy, which is a normal reaction to the wound healing.
The injury on the chest is the most serious. Bailang will still feel pain if he walks too fast, but it will not affect his movement.
If he walked slower and ignored the gauze on his body, Bailang would already look like a normal person.
"Are you going back to Qianfang today?"
"Yes, Mr. Liu, the injury is almost healed. Doctor Zhang from the medical center said that he can go back and recover slowly."
"Okay, although the situation has gradually stabilized recently, Qianfang can't do it without you. It would be great if you could go back. I happen to have some nourishing medicinal materials here. You have injured your roots this time, so you have to make up for it, otherwise Leaving hidden dangers will be a big trouble in the future. I will send someone to send you a money shop later, so you don’t have to worry."
Before leaving Ma Sheng Alley, Bailang came to the affairs hall to find Liu Xu. He planned to explain some things clearly to Liu Xu. Even though Liu Xu must have guessed some clues at this time, and he was giving face by not telling or asking, Bai Lang felt that he couldn't pretend to be stupid and treat others as fools.
Besides, the relationship between Bai Lang and Liu Xu is much closer than that between Bai Lang and Tang Yan. Tang Yan could say it, but why couldn't he say it to Liu Xu?
"Master Liu, there are many things Bailang didn't explain to Master Liu before. Please don't blame Master Liu. Bailang does the same."
"Okay, it's good that the swordsman knows these words. You don't need to say anything more to me. Who in the mixed swords hall doesn't have some thoughts? It's hard for you to think of telling me clearly. It's worthy of what Zhou Dong said to me before You hold me in high esteem.
I can no longer wield a knife at my age. If I want to retreat safely instead of dying on the street, there must be someone who can hold on to the situation after I leave this position and can see my way out. This is also the principle followed by the forces in the sword hall.
Talents like Zhou Dong have always been placed in the position of street wanderers by me because I want to discover young people who can take over my lineage. I don’t care how many secrets you hide? As long as you can hold up the pillars of my lineage.
In fact, Zhou Dong and I guessed from the beginning that you had something hidden on your body. For example, your strength grows too fast, for example, you can always win across levels, and even win easily.
Just because we don’t mention these things doesn’t mean we don’t know them. You're the only one who really thinks you're hiding well? Hahaha"
Bailang was stunned by Liu Xu's words, and his self-consciousness suddenly became awkward.
"Haha, I said, don't take it too seriously. You have a clean foundation, and it doesn't hurt to have some secrets. And at first we didn't think you would be involved in becoming a Qi Refiner. We just thought you had some special circumstances in martial arts. That's all. Now it seems that you can always surprise people. In this case, my lineage will be more stable.
Once you gain some experience in Hongdao's position, I can start to truly retire. "
"Red knife?"
"Haha, now you have killed all the crows in one battle. You have resisted the attack of the secret guards, and you have intercepted and killed several people in Yuzhong. You also arranged the combined attack technique in advance for Qianfang's waist knife to practice, plus The red knives in the sword shop suffered heavy losses, and what I told you before naturally happened much faster than expected.
You can think of this as part of your reward. So congratulations, Bailanghongdao! "
As Liu Xu spoke, he gestured towards the door of the public house. The door opened and an attendant came in holding a tray.
On the tray is a brand new sheathed dagger and a new waist badge.
Bailang bowed to Liu Xu to thank him, then took off the dagger and belt tag from his waist and replaced them with new ones.
[Discover (white) ordinary short sword × 1]
Pulling it out and looking at it carefully, the heavy hand and the hidden ferocity of the edge are clearly reflected in this short knife. In particular, the staggered blood grooves on the left and right sides of the blade, as well as the oval blade grid on the grip, all indicate that this knife is used to kill people.
This is much better than the inferior short knife with gray characters in Bai Lang's hand before. And when you hold it in your hand, both the transmission of true energy and the attachment of spiritual energy are much easier and smoother than before.
"Okay, you can take your time and look at things when you go back. Now tell me your plans."
Bailang heard this and sheathed his sword. Then sit down again. No need to organize words, he said directly: "Master Liu, when I go back this time, should I transfer to the shopkeeper of Qianfang like before? What about the location of the town hall?"
"What? Still reluctant to let go?"
"Hehe, Mr. Liu, haven't I just smoothed out those waist knives? I have to have time to make arrangements before I let go, right? Besides, the clerks in Qianfang's hands now are not just those in Qianfang, but also in the accounting department. You know the new strategy. If someone else comes here, I will have to communicate again, so I hope that the person who comes will be easier to talk to, preferably someone from you, Mr. Liu. The best is like Zhang Wu and Wang Bing. "
"It's good that you think about it. But Zhang Wu and Wang Bing are determined to follow you now. You are good at recruiting people. Do you want me to help you find someone so that you can take advantage?"
Bailang chuckled and scratched his head, not denying that he had this idea.
But Liu Xu shook his head and said, "Don't even think about it this time. No one will give it to you."
"Ah? Mr. Liu, what do you mean?"
"What do you mean? It means that after you become the red knife, you will be promoted to the shopkeeper of Qianfang, but the post of Zhentang will be vacant for now, and you will continue to be in charge. The knife hall will not send anyone to take over for the time being. This is the meaning of "zuodao", and it is true once you come. There has been a shortage of people everywhere recently, and secondly, I have taken into consideration that the noise you made in the money shop is really not suitable for changing hands halfway."
"Ah? Should I do both?"
"What? Don't want to?"
"No, no, no, I just didn't expect this."
"Okay, just understand. You can go down and recuperate yourself first. Don't worry about anything else."
"It's Mr. Liu, I'll take my leave now."
"Yes." After a pause, Liu Xu suddenly added: "In the future, you should be careful when doing things, especially when it comes to the City Lord's Mansion. Don't be used as a weapon."
After speaking, Liu Xu didn't let Bai Lang reply, and waved his hand to signal Bai Lang to leave quickly.
Although the words were meaningless, Bai Lang was stunned for a moment and understood. He turned around and bowed his hands to Liu Xu, who was waving his hands, and then turned and left.
"No one will be able to suppress this kid in a few years. I'm afraid Zuodao's plan will be hard to come by." Liu Xu muttered to himself, smiling happily.
