Chapter 103:
Shen Liufeng has never driven such a tiring road.
Xue Yan rode very fast on horseback. He originally took more than half a day to reach Yangzhou, but it took him less than two hours to run.
Shen Liufeng, who has always been able to ride horses, chased after him all the way, and when he arrived in Yangzhou, he started to vomit.
But Xue Yan didn't stop for a moment. As soon as the horse's head turned, he was about to enter the mountain.
Shen Liufeng wanted to stop him, but when he thought that life was at stake, he swallowed it again.
However, he still caught up and reminded: "My lord, will you be entering the mountain? It will be dark in two hours."
Xue Yan didn't look back.
"Come in," he said. "At dawn tomorrow, it's best to take the genius doctor out."
Even if they are tied, they must first be tied to Jinling.
In any case, he did not dare to let Jun Huailang wait. When he held Jun Huailang in his arms today, he was so hot that Xue Yan felt pain in his heart.
Such a person he can't bear to move a finger, how can he bear to let him suffer like this.
He burned for a moment longer, and Xue Yan felt so distressed that he wanted to die.
How does he know that this person is not only ruthless and ruthless, but also so crazy when he saves people?
If he had known earlier, when he was in a hurry to go out this morning, he would not have forgotten to stuff a steamed bun into his arms.
The mountain road is not easy to walk.
The last time they entered the mountain, they rode their horses slowly all the way, and Jun Huailang and Shen Liufeng talked and laughed together. But this time, the sun gradually slanted westward, and in the silent valley, only the sound of two horses' hooves echoed in the valley.
Fortunately, the mountain road that collapsed when they came last time has been repaired.
In this valley, I almost broke the emperor's favorite King Guangling. Therefore, as soon as they left, the magistrate of Yangzhou immediately rebuked a lot of manpower and material resources to repair the entire mountain road.
Therefore, they also drove straight in, and entered the mountain without any hindrance.
But this piece of mountain forest outside Yangzhou city has a wide area and cannot see the end at a glance. The last time Shen Liufeng was able to find the place to take the magician was purely by mistake, but this time, he might not have such good luck.
As soon as I entered the mountain, there were fork in the road.
If you just have nothing to do and look for fun, just pick a road and bump into it, but this time is different, they are eager to save people.
Shen Liufeng had no choice but to turn his head and look at Xue Yan.
Seeing that Xue Yan also stopped, looked around, then dragged the horse to turn around and walked towards one of the fork roads.
Shen Liufeng quickly followed.
"My lord, how did you know you were going here?" he asked.
Xue Yan looked sideways, looked in the other direction, and said casually: "Mountain."
"Huh?" Shen Liufeng didn't understand.
Walking on the mountain road, Xue Yan still trotted the horse all the way, looking for a new way while walking.
"He was found once last time, this time, he must go to the most hidden place." He said. "But he was alone, and he also had to eat and drink. So the place should not only be hidden, but also open and flat, allowing him to dig wells and grow vegetables."
Shen Liufeng thinks about it, it really is.
The last time he arrived at the genius doctor's house, he did have a small yard, in which there were a few pheasants that would peck at people, and a few pieces of sloppy vegetables were planted in the back of the house.
Indeed, although the divine doctor is divine, he also has to eat.
But Shen Liufeng couldn't help but feel surprised. The last time I went to the magical doctor's house, I forgot what his house was like. How could Xue Yan know, and where would he settle down?
Shen Liufeng was puzzled, and finally came to the conclusion that Xue Yan was indeed the grandson of the dragon, and he was very good.
So, Shen Liufeng put down a hundred hearts, followed Xue Yan all the way up the mountain into the valley, and circled in the mountain. The two of them went deeper and deeper, and gradually they lost sight of where they came from.
At this moment, Xue Yan stopped.
He looked up.
In front of him, was a steep mountain wall, towering into the clouds. Above the cliff, under the mellow sunset, you can see a small house.
Shen Liufeng exclaimed in surprise: "There!"
But after that, a look of embarrassment appeared on his face.
"This... how does this get up?" he said.
Xue Yan looked around.
Then, he got off the horse neatly and handed the reins to Shen Liufeng.
"You take the mountain road on the west side and go around the mountain and go up," he said. "You can find it there."
Shen Liufeng took the reins.
"Where are you going then?"
Xue Yan said: "That road goes too far, and the mountain road is steep. At this speed, you can go up after dark."
Shen Liufeng nodded: "So what?"
Xue Yan glanced at him.
"So, I'll go up first," he said. "When you come, go directly back to Jinling."
When I get there, I have to explain the purpose of my visit to the genius doctor, and I have to pack a horse and pack for him, which will take some more time.
If you delay like this, you may not be able to go back tomorrow.
Xue Yan didn't want to wait for a moment.
Shen Liufeng raised his head and glanced up again.
The mountain is so high, it looks like it can be hundreds of feet.
He looked at Xue Yan.
"Then how do you go?" he asked involuntarily.
Xue Yan did not look back.
"Don't get lost," he said.
After finishing speaking, Shen Liufeng saw under the setting sun, the tall and straight figure jumped, pointed toes, and jumped to the foot of the cliff, stepping on the ground and jumping upwards , and stepped on the crevice of the cliff.
He leaned against the cliff with one hand, and then went up for a while, and in a few breaths, he flew and disappeared into the night.
Shen Liufeng: "…."
He shouldn't have asked.
He should have thought that this ancestor has the ability to fly over the eaves.
—
Sure enough, by the time Shen Liufeng rode his horse and trotted all the way to the mountain, it was completely dark.
It is undoubtedly the yard of a genius doctor.
According to the progress Shen Liufeng envisioned before, Xue Yan should have been waiting at the gate with the genius doctor. After all, Xue Yan, the bandit, even if the genius doctor is unwilling, he can kidnap people and take them away.
However, the yard was quiet at the moment, not even a voice.
Shen Liufeng is a little strange, I don't know what went wrong. He avoided the chickens, tied the horse, and ran to the door of the genius doctor.
He cautiously approached the door, wanting to hear if there was any quarrel inside.
But as soon as he got close, he heard the person inside suddenly speak.
"You don't need to knock, just come in when you come."
It is the voice of the Physician.
Shen Liufeng knew that he had been found, and was a little embarrassed for a while, so he tiptoed open the door and walked in.
In the shabby hut, there is only a genius doctor, but there are two tea cups on the table.
The doctor is sitting at the table, reading a book. Seeing him push the door open, he raised his chin and gestured to the empty chair in front of him.
"Come and sit," he said.
Shen Liufeng looked puzzled.
Where is Xue Yan?
He didn't move, looked at the doctor, was about to speak, but heard the doctor speak.
"Oh, you asked the man who came earlier," he said.
Shen Liufeng nodded quickly.
I heard the genius doctor say: "Didn't he ask me to help him save people? I'll let him do one thing for me first, and when it's done, I'll go to Jinling with you."
Shen Liufeng was dumbfounded: "Do you still need to do something?"
The genius doctor glanced at him, then pointed at the empty chair: "Sit down, it's blocking my light."
Shen Liufeng had to sit down first.
I heard the genius doctor say: "Of course I have to do things. How many times have I said it, I have been secluded, and come to me repeatedly one after another, is it possible that I shouldn't be paid?"
Shen Liufeng could not refute.
"Then... what is it?" he asked again.
Ordinary things are easy to say, but if you really want to do things for three days and five days, then Huailang may not be able to hold it.
The doctor turned a page.
“Why so many questions?” he said. "It's not something you can do."
This genius doctor speaks very sharply, which Shen Liufeng has learned a long time ago.
But after hearing what he said, Shen Liufeng was relieved. Although this genius doctor has a strange temper, he shouldn't be the kind of person who is extremely sinful and will not embarrass Xue Yan.
Shen Liufeng's body began to give him feedback as soon as his heart calmed down.
He followed Xue Yan out at noon, and until now, no water has come in, and he has been riding a horse for so long. His throat was already on fire, and his stomach was so hungry he was about to lose consciousness.
Seeing a teacup on the table, Shen Liufeng subconsciously went to get it.
"Whose cup is this? I haven't eaten anything all the way, I'll drink first..."
The word of water stopped in his throat.
He stared at the china cup.
On the fine white celadon, there are clear bloodstains.
"...you, what did you do to him?!" Shen Liufeng exclaimed in shock.
In his mind, thousands of strange mountain doctors killed King Guangling from Chang'an and then dumped his body.
No wonder...no wonder it's eerily quiet here, no wonder Xue Yan is not here!
Shen Liufeng's gaze turned from the cup to the doctor's face.
But I saw a clear disgust on the face of the genius doctor.
"Aren't you good at having a small brain?" he said. "I can give you a prescription to try."
Not waiting for Shen Liufeng to reply, he ordered the cup with the book in his hand.
"It was blood on his hands," he said.
Shen Liufeng didn't believe it: "How can there be blood on his hands?"
The doctor glanced at him.
The doctor withdrew his gaze.
"...Then you still let him do errands for you?" Shen Liufeng's voice became weaker.
The genius doctor finally lost his temper in front of these two fools.
“What he wants to do now is naturally the most important thing, understand?” he said.
Shen Liufeng nodded shyly.
"Just wait." The genius doctor threw him a word and ignored him.
Shen Liufeng had no choice but to stare at the teacup.
It was midnight.
Shen Liufeng was sitting in front of the table drowsy, at this moment, the wooden door made a sound.
The blood was blowing.
Shen Liufeng woke up and hurriedly looked towards the door.
I saw Xue Yan standing at the door, covered in blood.
Half of his hair was messed up, and his robes were soaked with blood. His eyes were a little red, panting, standing in the doorway.
He described being a little embarrassed, with sharp wounds on his neck, but his eyes were frighteningly bright.
He loosened his hand, and the black wolf fell heavily to the ground.
"I brought back what you asked for," he said.
Very hoarse voice.
Seeing the genius doctor for a moment, then laughing.
“A lot faster than I thought,” he said. "I've got what I need, let's go to Jinling."
