I was just solving crimes, how could I become an immortal?

Chapter 196 A life demand from the previous king?
  Sheep Country is a rich and peaceful place.

The people here, from the king to the common people, all have the surname Yang. The king is Yangli, and the twins are Yangqin and Yangjun.

It seems to correspond to the name of the country. Sheep are abundant here, very, very abundant.

After all, the rams who drank the demon blood were all very excited. The adult ewes were in a state of pregnancy for a long time, and the lambs they gave birth to were able to challenge a wolf when they landed, which sounded amazing.

When Cao An and the others arrived, a herdsman was driving a group of sheep down the mountain.

It’s not a mountain with hillsides, it’s a mountain with cliffs.

The herdsmen themselves climbed down from the bamboo ladder, while the lambs chased them all the way and jumped directly from the cliff, as if all the sheep here were masters of Qinggong.

No wonder they dared to claim that they could fight against the Jing Feather Crow last time in Chiguang Country. It turns out that their sheep can really climb mountains!
  "We are rich in goat milk, wool, mutton, and sheep testicles... If you need them in the future, you can order from me."

Yang Gongdao was selling their goods with a cold face.

According to what he said, his products live up to their name and are reasonably priced, especially the sheep testicles. The results are very good today and in the future.

Unfortunately, the Tsing Yi Department doesn't have much time to fuss about health products. They come here to finish their work, and they also have to look for the water flag. The time is tight and the task is heavy.

"Let's talk about the case directly. You said it was syphilis before? Then go find a doctor! Why are you looking for me?" Cao An was a little confused.

Yang Gongdao also had no ink: "The doctor couldn't cure it, so I was ordered to find you. I don't know the details. Come with me, and I will take you to see our king."

The territory of Sheep Kingdom is not large, but the mountain roads are relatively rugged.

After bypassing two steep peaks, the capital of the Sheep Kingdom, built on the mountain, came into view.

The well-proportioned houses stretch upward like stairs. Although the capital of the Sheep Kingdom is not as grand as Shangjiang City, it still has a unique exotic style.

We had just reached the halfway point of the mountain when we saw a group of guards with scimitars at their waists, surrounding a young girl.

There is no need for heavy makeup, her youthful and beautiful face is like a flower in bud, she is dressed in a beige silk dress, and her body is filled with the amorous feelings of an exotic girl.

"Benefactor." With these two simple words, the identity of this person was revealed. Yang Qin, the princess of the Yang Kingdom, was the girl who was saved by Cao An.

Although Cao An verbally rejected the marriage, looking at the shy expression on this man's face, it seemed that at the age when love was just beginning, his thoughts were already fixed on him, completely ignoring the large group of people around him.

As for Cao An, he was not too entangled.

Although this foreign princess is tall and graceful, she is only in her teens. How about... how many more years can we raise her?
  "Ahem, hello, Your Royal Highness, I am the special envoy of the Daxing Dynasty, Cao An of the Qingyi Department of Water Embroidery. Nice to meet you."

"Well, it's great that you can come. Please save my brother."

It can be seen that this person already cares about Cao An, but now she cares more about her twin brother than herself.

"Princess, please don't worry, we are here just to solve the problem." Cao An did his part.

The brothers Tu Qi and Jin Qi stayed outside, and a few people quickly followed. Under the leadership of the princess, they went all the way to the depths of the palace.

The king at this moment happened to be in the prince's bedroom.

Looking at the doctors and servants running back and forth at the door, it seems that the trouble is not small!

Outside the bedroom, a strong man with a beard was pacing back and forth anxiously. He must be the king.

Cao Anli was careful, and just as he was about to take out the document and hand it over, he was already caught.

"Are you Cao Shuixiu?"

"Um, that's right, your official..."

"Don't be an official anymore. I heard you can do anything. Come in and see my son."

omnipotent?

Which bastard helped me spread this name?

The matter has reached this point, and Cao An has no time to refute. Seeing that the situation has reached a very critical level, he cannot afford to delay.

Arriving at the inner room, the temperature in the room suddenly rose a lot.

Looking at the bed again, a young man who looked very similar to the princess was lying on the bed moaning in pain.

The doctor on the side was sweating profusely, obviously unable to deal with such injuries.

There is no need to ask for details, because a red plum blossom is blooming on the chest of Prince Yangjun at this moment.

"So syphilis is the plum blossom of the fire plum blossom? Is this a witchcraft?"

"It's a very strange thing, let me try it." With a bright red eyebrow, Red Fox walked over, stretched out his hand and sucked it out, trying to pull the plum blossom out of the body. As if sensing an external force, the plum blossoms bloomed with even more eerie fire.

The fire followed Red Fox's demonic power and burned into his palm, causing Red Fox's face to change slightly. Yang Jun even screamed in pain, his whole body turned red, as if he was about to be set on fire.

"Oops, this thing has taken root and is extracting nutrients." Red Fox quickly twisted his wrist and pushed forward a stream of evil energy.

This time, the move was right.

The demonic energy merged with the plum blossoms, and the red burning sensation subsided. Only then did Yang Jun let out a long breath.

After a long time, Yang Jun heard the calls from around him, and then he weakly opened his eyes and saw Cao An at a glance.

"Is it my benefactor? Have you come to save me?" He was arrested with his sister that day. This man also regarded Cao An as a hero. Now that he saw him again, the fear in his heart also subsided a little.

Cao An nodded: "Yes, I'm here to save you. You can rest peacefully and the disease will be cured soon."

Yang Jun showed a pale smile and closed his eyes again to rest.

But this sentence, everyone present understood that it was just a word of comfort.

The pain in his body seemed to have eased, but his condition was getting worse.

"Let's go out and talk." Cao An said to everyone.

The group came to the side hall of the palace. Cao An simply handed over the document, exchanged a few words, and then the topic returned to the prince.

"Your Majesty, Prince Yangjun's situation is not optimistic!"

"If you have something to say, just say it." The king's face was downcast and he looked a little haggard. He seemed to be disturbed by the Huomei incident.

Red Fox stood aside, looking at his palms, as if he was recalling the power of Huomei's counterattack just now.

For the first time, she felt the flames that she could not control: "The fire plum is embedded in the body and connected to the heart of flesh and blood. It is very risky to completely remove it."

The pain relief was only superficial. The demonic energy that Red Fox had just sent out actually promoted growth, and a few more fire plum blossoms bloomed on the branches.

But the red fox had no choice.

Just like a plant planted in the soil, it will always absorb the nutrients from the soil unconsciously, and what Huomei absorbs at this moment is the flesh and blood of Prince Yangjun.

If he didn't let this breath of demonic energy pass, the prince would be afraid that he would be drained on the spot. In order to mitigate the danger, he could only add some nutrients into it to temporarily stabilize Huomei.

But breeding like this is not an option!
  When the fire plum grows to a certain extent, the body will be unable to withstand being stretched, and a way must be found to cure it completely.

"Your Highness, when did this happen?"

"After he came back from the Blood Spring recently, something didn't feel right about him. Within two days, that kind of flower appeared on his chest."

"He was the only one who went?"

"No, there are seven more people accompanying him, three of whom are already dead."

"There are three more deceased? So, is it related to the blood spring?"

"I, I don't know..." The king sat on the throne, his face full of pain.

This answer is consistent with the fair tone of the sheep!

It was just the flashing look in the king's eyes, and it was obvious that he was hiding something.

Cao An took a step forward and said solemnly: "Your Majesty, I don't know what you are hesitating about? But a fire plum will not grow in flesh and blood for no reason. If you have something to hide, I'm afraid I can't do it. Back to the days."

Where there are flowers, there are flower growers. Only by finding the flower growers and unlocking their secret methods can we have a chance to save people.

The king's eyes struggled for a moment, and finally he sighed: "I won't hide it from you, my son saw a woman in red."

"The woman in red? In the blood fountain?"

"Yes, it is said that the woman has come back to seek revenge. Everyone who sees her will die a violent death."

"It's not that mysterious, is it? Do you know the identity of that woman?"

"I know, she was the king of the previous dynasty and was killed in a fountain of blood."

"Could it be that the resentment lingered after death and turned into a ghost of injustice? Do you know who killed her?"

King Yangli raised his head, with a trace of struggle in his eyes: "You know, I am the one who killed her, and she came to ask for my life."
