A soft cough came from the room. Old Tang and Old Xu were delighted and hurriedly opened the door and entered.
As soon as he opened the door, he saw the city lord sitting up and coughing, and the two of them immediately saluted.
"Meet the City Lord"
"Get up, cough..." City Lord Wei asked the two of them to stand up, but couldn't help coughing.
"City Lord, you still need to rest," Old Tang said with concern.
"What time is it now?" City Lord Wei asked, and Old Tang immediately replied: "It's just after dawn."
City Lord Wei nodded. He naturally knew what time it was, and asking questions was just to cover up.
He was always conscious thanks to the Turtle Breath Kung Fu, but from the outside or looking at his pulse, he looked like he was seriously injured and in a coma.
"How are Sister Lin and Mr. Qin?" City Lord Wei asked pretending not to know, otherwise, everything he had done would be in vain.
"Thanks to the city lord's desperate fight, the two of them were not injured. It's just that Sister Lin Xue has heard that her expression has been not good, so she is very relieved of the city lord. However, now that the city lord wakes up, sister Lin Xue can also rest assured." Old Tang saw I was happy to see that the city lord was safe and sound.
"Sister Lin, she is indeed... ahem, she is a kind-hearted girl, so she is worried." City Lord Wei couldn't help coughing as he said this. When Old Tang and Old Xu saw it, they couldn't help but persuade: "City Lord Sir, you still need to take a good rest. If your body is affected, the people of Splendid City will still count on you. If something happens to the Lord of the City here, our lives will not be worth your life."
"Yes, City Lord." Lao Xu agreed.
"I have made you worry. Where are Mr. Qin and Sister Lin now? It cannot be because I neglected them. I have told you many times that what Mr. Qin said is my word." City Lord Wei repeated it again.
"We have always remembered your teachings, and we have never dared to neglect Mr. Qin, not even Miss Lin Xue and us." Old Xu took the lead in reporting to City Lord Wei. Old Tang still didn't understand what City Lord Wei meant. , Lao Xu said it first.
But seeing City Lord Wei nodding his head silently, Old Tang really felt that Old Xu was really smart. He didn't think about anything, but others already understood what he meant. No wonder he has always been favored by City Lord Wei, which really made him He was convinced, and at the same time he admired City Lord Wei very much for not forgetting her at this time, and he would have to talk to Sister Lin Xue properly when the time comes.
"That's very good. Lao Xu, you stay here. Lao Tang, you will protect Lin Xue and Mr. Qin. If anything happens, I'll take it from you." After the city lord Wei finished speaking, he slowly lay down and prepared. Take a good rest. He was a little too harsh on himself at that time. As a result, he is a little unrestrained now and couldn't help but cough a few times. However, he has always believed in a saying that if you want to achieve extraordinary things, you have to make extraordinary efforts. cost.
He used to really look down on those snobbish people, but after meeting people like Lin Xue, he understood some truth. Sometimes things that can be solved with money are no big deal. When facing people like Lin Xue, he just He was able to move things with emotion and reason, otherwise, how could he have made himself like this as if he was about to commit suicide? His internal organs were seriously injured, there were dozens of external injuries, and his meridians looked very bad.
Of course, City Lord Wei is not a fool. Even though his meridians are seriously injured, it is just a feigned injury on the surface. If he really wants to take action, he may not lose, but even if it is a superficial injury, he will still be injured after all. It was an injury. It would be nonsense to say that there was nothing wrong with it.
Old Tang and Old Xu exited the room together, and were about to let City Lord Wei take a good rest. At this time, Lin Xue, who was invited by Old Tang to cook the medicine, was holding a bowl of hot cooked medicine.
"Sister Lin Xue, I have good news for you. The city lord just woke up." Old Tang couldn't wait to share the good news with Lin Xue.
"Really, that's great." Lin Xue was really relieved for City Lord Wei when he heard this, and then handed the medicine to Old Tang.
"Since Lord Wei is recuperating, I won't go in. This doctor's medicine will be a waste for two of us."
"It's a small matter, I'm just afraid that Miss Lin Xue will have to wait for a few days." Old Tang pushed the medicine into Old Xu's hand, and Old Xu couldn't help complaining. This Old Tang is so shameless, even Wei Wei The big city lord asked him to guard, but there was no need to do this, making him seem to be of no use at all.
"Nothing is permanent in the world. If everything goes as expected, there won't be so many miserable people in the world," Lin Xue sighed.
"Lord City Lord, let me protect you. I think Mr. Qin also has some skills. Plus Lao Xu is here, I believe nothing will happen. How about you and I each ride a horse and let Lord City Lord take a good rest. I How about I protect you and go find that person?" Old Tang felt quite sorry for Lin Xue, so he used his brains to come up with what he thought was a perfect solution.
"Thank you, Brother Tang. However, after all, the city lord was targeted and injured by thieves because of me. If I leave like this, I would be ashamed of my conscience. My uncle once told me that it's not too late for good food. If you came together, let's go together." "Lin Xue declined Old Tang's idea. Although she wanted to meet him quickly, if such a big thing happened, he wouldn't let it go, and she couldn't let him look down on her.
"I didn't expect Lin Xue to be like this, but I, Old Tang, fell behind." Old Tang felt a little more admiration for Lin Xue in his heart.
"Brother Tang, since the city lord asked you to follow me, then you can start with me. My uncle once taught some medicinal diet. I think it should be of some help to the city lord." Lin Xue asked Old Tang to help him with the fight. Of course, Old Tang would not He refused, and was about to talk to Sister Lin Xue on the way about how City Lord Wei had just asked him to treat them well, and he couldn't neglect them just because he was away.
"I really didn't expect that Miss Lin Xue can know how to cook medicinal foods. I heard that not many people in the city know how to do it. Except for Lin Dacai from Juxian Tower, most of the people who know how to cook medicinal foods are better off eating them directly. The city lord once took me I ate it with Lao Xu once and it was really hard to swallow." Lao Tang remembered the past as he spoke. When he thought of the bark-like medicinal food, he really wanted to grab their heads and taste it.
"Brother Tang, I never told you that Mr. Lin is my uncle, and he taught me my craftsmanship." Lin Xue led Old Tang to the kitchen downstairs, and the two started talking.
"No wonder, the people at Juxian Tower were so respectful when they saw you. I was still surprised at the time. Could it be that they knew your identity as Mr. Qin's student?" Old Tang suddenly realized and sighed, no wonder it was so delicious. It turned out to be Juxian. The craftsmanship of Xianlou.
Lao Xu watched the two people leave, but he still couldn't stop thinking. How could the city lord's innate master lose to a third-rate master whose strength was only acquired? If it weren't for the light skill, he wouldn't even be considered a third-rate master in his eyes.
"Mr. Qin, are you there?" Lao Xu felt that something was wrong, so he mustered up the courage to knock on the door and asked.
After not seeing a reply for a long time, Lao Xu secretly thought that something had happened, so he pushed the door open and saw who was inside. However, Lao Xu did not see any traces of a fight. Based on what was behind Mr. Qin and Tang Ao when they fought, It is not easy to take down easily. Lao Xu came to the window and looked outside, and happened to see Mr. Qin coming back downstairs. The direction he came back was exactly the direction where the thief escaped, and it was also the death of the city lord and the thief. A place to fight.
Does Mr. Qin also think something is wrong? Or discovered something? Lao Xu was actually a little curious, but after thinking about it, he sighed. He had gone too far, and his old habit had returned.
