"Why did you and Mr. Hou get involved? Are you in the same group?" Zhao Chuan was shocked and confused.
"Yes and no!" Zhao Li answered calmly.
"How?" Zhao Chuan was puzzled.
"The one who is with Mr. Hou is Wang Ke."
"How could it be? Nonsense." Zhao Chuan shook his head in denial.
"Yes, don't forget, they are all bandits and have great ambitions!"
"They're just bandits, how could they have any big ambitions?" Zhao Chuan disagreed.
"The Marquis wants to be the emperor, and Wang Ke wants to rebel and seek hegemony. Isn't this ambition big?" Zhao Lidao said.
"Really or not?" Zhao Chuan burst into laughter, pointing at Zhao Li and saying, "You became a beggar and fainted from hunger, are you talking nonsense again?"
Zhao Li is finally full. Do you believe it or not when he says these words to Zhao Chuan? Any mob rebellion or water bandits robbing a passenger ship are all fakes arranged by others in advance. They have their own motives. If you don’t believe me, you will know later.
After Zhao Li finished eating, he wiped his mouth and went downstairs to leave.
Zhao Chuan said that you haven’t said why you became a beggar.
Zhao Li said that I am going back to Nanhai. If you lend me some money, I will tell you.
Zhao Chuan said yes, how much will it cost?
Zhao Li said one thousand taels.
Zhao Chuan immediately took out a thousand taels of silver notes.
Zhao Li said that I originally wanted to come here to find Wang Ke, but I was stolen from the luxury passenger ship and beaten up. When the ship arrived at Jiangzhou Pier, I was kicked off. Damn it, I have to find a master to learn martial arts...
Zhao Li finished cursing and said goodbye to Zhao Chuan, then left the inn, regardless of the fact that it was still raining outside.
Regardless of whether Zhao Chuan believed what he said or not, Zhao Li just left like this. It was obvious that he had no nostalgia for Zhao Chuan.
In the afternoon of the next day, Zhao Chuan went to Wang Decai's pharmacy to pick up medicinal materials, planning to go to the plantation to refine elixirs and settle the orders between Wang Decai and several warriors.
Just as they arrived at the drug store, Wang Decai's wife, Wang Zherongyan, came back from outside and told Zhao Chuan that they had found Hunyuanzi in Nanfeng County. The man was still recovering from his injuries in a guest house.
Knowing that his wife was actually running errands for Zhao Chuan to inquire about things, Wang Decai also pretended to be deaf and dumb, pretending that he didn't know anything and that he only cared about making money.
Upon hearing this, Zhao Chuan said that he would go to Hunyuanzi immediately to find out the whereabouts of Qi Yatou.
Although Wang Decai was very unhappy, there was nothing he could do about it. He couldn't control his wife, Wang Zherongyan. Who said women were strong and men were weak?
Zhao Chuan told Wang Decai that he was going to Nanfeng County, and the elixir ordered by Wu Ren could only be postponed. When Wang Decai heard this, his face turned ugly, and he stared at his wife, Wang Zhe Rongyan, and kept sighing.
Seeing Wang Decai's appearance, Wang Zherongyan asked Zhao Chuan if he could handle the orders for the warriors in his hands first? It's not too late to go back after refining the elixir. Hunyuanzi was seriously injured and won't recover in ten days and a half.
Seeing Wang Decai's embarrassed look, Zhao Chuan nodded in agreement.
Five days later, Zhao Chuan prepared several Qi-tonifying pills and gave them to Wang Decai.
Zhao Chuan rushed to the inn in Nanfeng County according to what Wang Zherongyan said.
You won’t know if you don’t go, but you will be shocked if you go.
Hunyuanzi's real appearance is around thirty years old. Zhao Chuan knows this. When she travels, she usually uses disguise to pretend to be in her fifties.
But the person on the bed felt like she was seventy or eighty years old, dying, with her eyes closed and her face gloomy. She doesn't look like the original Hunyuanzi. Could it be that she has developed a new disguise technique?
Could it be that Wang Decai's wife, Wang Zherongyan, got the wrong person? Or are there two people with the same name, are they different people?
Zhao Chuan was afraid of making a mistake, so he walked out of the room, found the waiter, and asked the person whether he was a woman or a man and what his name was.
The waiter said that this person was a Taoist nun. I heard her name was Hunyuanzi. When she came here, she was carried on the back of another woman. She was injured. She stayed here for a few days to recuperate. She also went to see a doctor, but the more she looked, the better she was. , I get old very quickly in a few days, and I look the same every day.
Zhao Chuan asked why not see a doctor with better medical skills?
The waiter said that he was looking for the best doctor in the county, the doctor at Huichun Hall.
If Zhao Chuan is like this, why doesn't he recover from his illness? Is it because the precious gold is not in place, or is there some other reason?
The waiter said that he had spent a lot of money. When the Taoist nun came here, she had spent all the hundreds of taels of silver she had with her, and there was no improvement, alas.
Zhao Chuan said that the doctor who treated the disease was a quack with mediocre skills?
The waiter said that this could not be said. The doctor who came to treat the disease was called Zhong Sunsi. He was the doctor of Huichun Hall and a co-worker of the county government. There was no need to ask if he had good medical skills in the local area, but he was not good at it.
Confirming that it was Hunyuanzi, Zhao Chuan waved the waiter to leave and walked into the room again.
This Hunyuanzi was dying of illness. It seemed that if he came a few days later, he would have to go to the mass grave to find her.
Zhao Chuan felt compassion, and the hatred that was originally filled with hatred subsided a lot.
"Old pervert, do you still recognize me?" Zhao Chuan asked, looking at Hunyuanzi lying languidly on the bed.
"Who are you?" When someone called her, the person on the bed forced her eyes open.
"I was the one you stripped naked and chased and beat with your lightning skills. That little brat in your mouth!" Zhao Chuan said loudly, not saying good things to her because her life was in danger.
"..." Hunyuanzi's eyes were blurred and he seemed to have forgotten.
"I really don't remember? The one whose cultivation was abolished by you half a year ago is Xiaoyaozi's disciple!" Zhao Chuan became a little impatient.
As soon as he heard about Xiaoyaozi, Hunyuanzi became energetic, and a complex look containing anger and resentment immediately flashed out, "You, are you that three-bastard? My senior brother's apprentice?"
The name Sanhunzi was the name Zhao Chuan casually mentioned in response to Hunyuanzi's questioning.
"Yeah!" Zhao Chuan responded heavily.
Zhao Chuan originally thought that after Hunyuanzi found out who he was, he would think he was here to cause trouble and would scold him unkindly, because he had just called her an old pervert.
Unexpectedly, when she heard the name Xiaoyaozi, although she flashed a complex look of anger and resentment, it only flashed past, and what followed was an empty look of hopelessness.
"I was wrong. I shouldn't have ruined your cultivation. I finally understand that I have been too angry with myself for being right, which ultimately harmed me and others." Hunyuanzi said.
"How can you be wrong? You hate others, and even their apprentices suffer. And this apprentice is just a nominal one. I haven't been with him for a day. Not only have I learned nothing, but I haven't even given him a needle. You Are you saying this apprentice is unjust?" Zhao Chuan said unforgivingly.
"Yes, it's my fault. I'm sorry for you, nephew. I'm here to apologize to you!" Hunyuanzi struggled to get up.
When Zhao Chuan saw this, he was embarrassed to hurt others again.
Zhao Chuan has only seen Hunyuanzi twice. Her attitude was completely different from last time to this time. Zhao Chuan was puzzled by the changes before and after.
According to the character of Hunyuanzi I met last time, she shouldn't be so considerate.
Is this what people often say when a person is about to die, his words are sad?
"Nephew, help me up, and I will unblock the sealed acupuncture points for you..." Hunyuanzi tried hard to get up, but failed to raise her arms, so she asked Zhao Chuan to help her.
Zhao Chuan listened to her words and helped her sit up on the bed.
Hunyuanzi wanted to test Zhao Chuan's pulse first, saying that he wanted to determine the specific condition of Zhao Chuan's physical injury for so long.
Zhao Chuan also obediently extended his wrist to her.
Hunyuanzi stretched out his weak arm and placed two fingers on Zhao Chuan's body. Later, he was surprised and said, "Ah, has your cultivation level recovered?"
"Yes." Zhao Chuan answered.
"Why, how could this... happen?" Hunyuanzi murmured to himself and tested his pulse again.
Zhao Chuan remained silent and allowed Hunyuanzi to test. He felt that the spiritual energy sent by Hunyuanzi from his fingers was very weak. He walked around his body and quickly withdrew it.
"Who restored it to you?" Hunyuanzi asked, frowning in confusion.
"Guess." Zhao Chuan said.
"Your master Xiaoyaozi?"
"No, I wanted to find him, but his whereabouts were elusive. After you sealed the Tanzhong point in the Zhongdantian, I couldn't find him at all. Alas." Zhao Chuan sighed.
"Who is that master?" Hunyuanzi sat on the bed and frowned, thinking, "It stands to reason that no one can crack this acupuncture point. I used my own unique technique to seal it, and the aura is mixed with my inner fire..."
"I didn't break it, and I don't know any masters at all. I suddenly recovered one day, really!" Zhao Chuan said seriously.
"That's strange..." Hunyuanzi was very puzzled.
After staying for a while, Hunyuanzi couldn't figure out the reason, so he asked Zhao Chuan why he still came here to find her since his cultivation had recovered.
Zhao Chuan said, do you want to hear the truth or a lie?
Hunyuanzi said that I am already like this, do I still need to listen to your lies?
Zhao Chuan said what's wrong with you? What's the matter? What's the disease?
Hunyuanzi said it’s hard to explain in words, so why don’t you tell me why you came here to find me?
"I heard you were here, so I came here to take revenge on you!" Zhao Chuan said with a smile, "You sealed my cultivation level and had a great influence on me. I hate you so much!"
After hearing this, Hunyuanzi felt very guilty and expressed his understanding, saying that now that she had no love in her life, she could let Zhao Chuan deal with her.
Zhao Chuan laughed and said that after seeing your appearance here, he changed his mind temporarily. After all, you are also an elder, aren't you? Isn't it taking advantage of others' danger to take revenge on you under such circumstances? You can't do such a thing!
Hunyuanzi said you are ridiculing me, right? I sealed your acupuncture points back then, but you have Qi. You can do whatever you want now, even take your life! Anyway, I am hopeless now.
Zhao Chuan said that my uncle's words were serious, I just said angry words, how dare I be disrespectful to you?
Hunyuanzi said, okay, I'm tired. Is there anything else you want to say to me?
Zhao Chuan said that I actually came here to see you because I wanted to thank you for ruining my cultivation.
Thank me? Hunyuanzi smiled bitterly and said, stop joking, I'm afraid I won't live long now, so don't torture my emotions anymore. If you still want to say something, just tell me how to restore your cultivation.
Zhao Chuan sighed, and then his martial arts was disabled. He was unable to fight back when he encountered bad guys. As a result, he was killed. He was revived with a three-turn Yang Yang Pill. When he woke up, he restored his cultivation level, and even improved his cultivation level. One step further.
"So that's it!" Hunyuanzi suddenly realized.
"So shouldn't I thank you?" Zhao Chuan also said with a wry smile.
"Now that you have recovered your cultivation, I won't say anything more. When you see your master Xiaoyaozi, say hello to him for me." Hunyuanzi said to drive Zhao Chuan away.
Zhao Chuan said that the main purpose of my visit this time was to ask if you had seen the little fox that you wanted to chase? Someone saw you staying at an inn in Xintang Town with that little girl.
Hunyuanzi said I don’t know which one you are talking about. I have killed too many vixens. I met one just a few days ago, but I did not kill her. On the contrary, she carried the injured me to this county inn. Recuperate.
Zhao Chuan said that the vixen who carried you here is called Wang Zherongyan. It was you who gave her the name. She was the one who told me you were here. The vixen I'm looking for is the little vixen you hunted down that day when you sealed my acupuncture point. Where is she now? Did you know?
