"Although this place looks a bit messy, at least they have taken care of themselves."

"And you have been lying here for a long time. People passing by look at you not only without disgust, but also with respect."

The little old man just smiled: "Just based on other people's eyes?"

"The gourd you use to drink wine is not the kind found in taverns. Compared to the gourd used to hold wine, the gourd you have is more like a gourd for refining medicine. Although it is not common, it can be considered as seen."

"Last point, although you are an alcoholic, your hands are steadier than my father's. You must have practiced it by taking medicine for many years."

The first thing Wen Jiu noticed was the little old man's hands. At first glance, they looked full of mud, but they didn't move at all when he picked up the gourd.

The witch doctor didn't deliberately hide it. Since he was recognized, there was nothing wrong with admitting it: "You girl do have some eyesight. Since you can recognize me, it is also a fate. How about helping you?"

Wen Jiu didn't expect that he would agree so simply, and he hurriedly saluted: "Thank you sir!"

The little old man was startled, with a bit of suspicion in his eyes: "Are you from the capital?"

Wen Jiu was stunned for a moment, remembering the gift just now, he nodded magnanimously, and smiled cleverly: "That's right. We heard that the scenery in southern Xinjiang is very different from that in Beijing, so we came to have some fun, but my brother passed by a sanatorium The Gu house, I thought it was an abandoned courtyard, but it turned out to be a poison."

I don’t know how much he believed these words...

The little old man returned to his nonchalant look just now: "In that case, you bring the person here to take a look, and I will save him if I can."

Wen Jiu suddenly realized that no wonder the man asked him to come here to attack people. It turned out that he did not go out to treat patients, but only treated them here.

She said hello and took a few steps toward the exit but turned back uneasily: "If sir can save my brother, we will do our best to repay him for saving his life."

I also hope that he will stay here and wait for him to bring his senior brother, and he will do what he says.

The man continued to lie back under the tree, holding the half-empty gourd with an unknown amount of wine in it.

Wen Jiu didn't care about anything else and rushed back to the inn.

Zhou Mingran, who was still pacing back and forth in the lobby, and Lu Xu, who was frowning, breathed a sigh of relief when they saw Wen Jiu.

Zhou Lingran was about to speak, but Lu Xu beat him to it.

I saw him staring at Wen Jiu, with unconcealable anger in his eyes: "Where have you been?"

From the moment Lu Xu found out that Wen Jiu was not at the inn and went out alone, his heart never let go. Lou Wu and others could not find any trace of her.

Wen Jiu was frightened by him, opened his mouth, and suddenly forgot what he was going to say.

Zhou Lingran glanced at Lu Xu with a bit of surprise in his eyes.

Lu Xu rarely lost control like this, and then said: "Can't you tell us first? Don't run around like this next time."

Wen Jiu frowned, what does running around mean?

In his eyes, is he such a willful person?

She frowned slightly: "Why should I report to you where I am going? I am not your subordinate!"

Seeing that something was wrong, Zhou Lingran quickly interrupted the argument between the two: "Senior sister must have her reasons for going out! It is understandable that Mr. Lu is worried that something will happen to senior sister! Now is not the time for the two of you to quarrel!"

Wen Jiu was a little angry... Lu Xu had never scolded her like this before.

But this critical moment is not the time to show off your temper.

She did not develop a bad temper in Qingyun Mountain. Instead, in a strange environment, she cherished everyone's care for her and was always grateful in her heart. She did not take it for granted.

She took a breath first: "Today I went out to inquire about news. Some people said that there is a witch doctor in the east who can cure senior brother. I have found the person and I need to take senior brother there quickly."

Ye Ziheng has been in a coma since he came back. He can't even ask the person who saw the poison. Only when he wakes up can these things be revealed one by one. Otherwise, they may have already exposed their traces. If the other party really has another move...

The enemy is in the dark and they are in the light, so they dare not gamble.

"How do you know that the witch doctor can save him?"

Lu Xu doubted it almost instinctively, and now none of them dared to believe it.

Zhou Lingran also wanted to know the reason and said, "Yes, senior sister, this person is unfamiliar with the place. Can he really be trusted?"

Wen Jiu raised his eyes: "Since that man told me, he can't come here to lie to me, right? Then I will definitely let Jiang Que take me to chase him to the ends of the earth!"

She slapped the table angrily and gritted her teeth.

Zhou Lingran turned around and prepared to run to Ye Ziheng's room.

Lu Xu saw a figure flash in front of him: "What's wrong?"

"Take senior brother to remove the poison."

Lu Xu suppressed the doubts in his heart. Since the brothers and sisters believed in this person so much, let's give it a try.

And those who can solve this poison may know who the poison is.

It would be okay even if Ye Ziheng didn't say anything.

Lu Xu immediately had someone prepare a carriage and took Ye Ziheng to the place Wen Jiu mentioned before dark.

Ye Ziheng was taken to the shed, accompanied by Zhou Lingran, and Wen Jiu and Lu Xu stood outside the shed.

The cold moonlight shone quietly on their faces, and there was a hint of embarrassment in the air.

"Sorry, this afternoon is my problem."

Lu Xu's voice was not loud, but it exploded a thunder in Wen Jiu's heart.

Is he apologizing to himself?

In Lu Xu's life, are there still three words "I'm sorry"?

Wen Jiu looked at him suspiciously, with stars in his eyes.

Seeing that she didn't speak, Lu Xu just stared at him, thinking that he didn't accept his apology, and continued to explain: "I just care about it, and it will cause chaos. Southern Xinjiang is not like the capital. Even your second senior brother will be poisoned. I'm afraid that you will too." …I haven’t been able to find you this morning, even Lou Wu and the others…”

"I know, I know you have good intentions. I just feel that it is just a waste of time for us to gather together. It is better to spread out people, so I went out alone to look for clues. I didn't expect that I would find them."

"I knew the man wouldn't lie to me, so I took it upon myself to go find the witch doctor first. If I could find him, I would bring him back. If he can't be found, I'll ask you to help..."

"So...I don't blame you."

Wen Jiu was confused when she heard the concern, and she didn't dare to listen anymore.

She seems to be able to accept anyone who tells her that he or she cares. Only Lu Xu's words of concern just now were chaotic and full of emotions that she didn't expect...

She felt something was wrong, so she interrupted immediately.

"That's good." Lu Xu looked at Wen Jiu, who had his head lowered beside him, and gently twitched the corner of his mouth, half-smiling.

That night.

Wen Jiu leaned in the carriage. He had been busy all day and had no time to drink water. He could finally rest for a while.

In a daze, Lou Wu's deliberately lowered voice came from outside the car curtain: "Miss Wen, my subordinate bought some pastries. Do you want some to fill your stomach first?"
