Journey through the Worlds from the Wilderness

Chapter 76
After running for a day and a night, and experiencing fierce fighting, and being hit by cold wind and rain, Gao Feng just wanted to take off his cold and hard clothes, get into the warm blanket, and have a good sleep.

Back at the Bailu Medical Center, he did exactly the same.

But before going to bed, he drank a bowl of warm ginger soup first.

"Drinking a bowl of ginger soup will help drive away the wind and cold."

Zhang Yan handed the ginger soup to Gao Feng, and said crisply.

Gao Feng reached out to take it, raised his head and gulped it down.

Although there is the five internal organs guidance technique to reconcile the five internal organs and five elements to strengthen the physique, so that the body is constantly corrected towards a more perfect state. Therefore, with a peak physique, I am afraid that even illnesses will be rare in the future, but at this moment it is far from being free from all diseases. degree of invasion.

What's more, he really couldn't bear to see Zhang Yan, the girl with a lovely smile in front of him, the warm smile on her face disappeared, replaced by a distressed and disappointed expression.

"Thank you, girl."

After Gao Feng drank the ginger soup, he immediately felt the warmth in his stomach, which made him very comfortable.

"You're welcome, brother, take a good rest, and I won't bother you."

Zhang Yan took the empty bowl in satisfaction, raised her face and grinned, then turned around and ran out of the house bouncing around.

"Hehe! I'm still a child."

Looking at the delicate back that he forgot to bring to the door, Gao Feng couldn't help shaking his head and chuckling, stood up, walked to the door and closed it.

Although Zhang Yan, who is fourteen or fifteen years old, has reached the age to get married in this era, in Gao Feng's eyes, she is just a child who has not finished junior high school.

……

Gao Feng was able to go home to cultivate safely, but Lu Jianxing could not.

Back in the small courtyard where he lived with Shen Lian and Jin Yichuan, Shen Lian suggested going out to buy wine and some snacks to reward the three brothers for completing this dangerous case.

This made Lu Jianxing, who was already confused and suspicious, even more puzzled.

"Second brother, you usually save money. Except for New Year's Day, you always save whatever you can. You only want to redeem yourself for Miss Zhou. What happened this time?"

Lu Jianxing asked with a smile, as if he was just surprised by this matter.

When Shen Lian heard this, his heart tightened, and he quickly said: "This matter is different from the past, brother, I think we have been involved in a storm, so I feel very uneasy and want to drink to relieve my worries."

"Trouble? Didn't we just make great achievements? Eunuch Zhao is asking us for a reward?"

Obviously, Jin Yichuan didn't think so much, so when he heard what Shen Lian said, he couldn't help being slightly startled, showing a confused look.

Lu Jianxing glanced at Jin Yichuan and smiled helplessly. His third brother had a sincere heart and had always been like this, which made him feel uneasy and at the same time he couldn't help but feel at ease.

On the other hand, Shen Lian, regardless of his decisive and ruthless style of conduct, or his indifferent way of dealing with others, made him a little bit worried, for fear that something would go wrong one day. Fortunately, there was Zhou Miaotong from Nuanxiang Pavilion who was holding Shen Lian back. Reassure him a little.

However, when he met Zhao Jingzhong after returning to Beijing and listened to the contradictory words he said, he couldn't help but recall everything that happened in the inn, and became increasingly suspicious.

Speaking of credit, Jin Yichuan said with a smile: "Brother, with this credit, you will definitely become a hundred households this time!"

"That's right, brother, although the credit of the emperor's secret decree can't make people reach the sky in one step, it's safe to be a hundred households."

Shen Lian had a lot of thoughts, and forced himself to laugh at this moment.

"I hope so."

Lu Jianxing said something perfunctorily, and sighed secretly, but he was sure of one thing in his heart: Shen Lian really had something to hide from him!

It's just that the position of one hundred households is his obsession, and related to this, although he has doubts and worries, he subconsciously pushes them to the back and ignores them for the time being, so he doesn't ask any more questions, and makes other plans for the time being.

Unlike Jin Yichuan, Shen Lian was a little aware of Lu Jianxing's abnormality. In the past, he would definitely have asked, but as he said, the situation is very different now, and so is he.

"Brother, Ichikawa, you guys rest first, I'll go out and buy wine."

After Shen Lian said this, he walked out of the small courtyard, but he didn't go to buy wine.

……

"I'll exchange half of the gold for common 100 taels of silver bills, and half for clean broken silver. After doing this, I can pretend that I have never seen you before."

In a slightly dark alley, Shen Lian took out a heavy gray bag from his arms, handed it to the wretched man in the alley, and handled it gently.

The other party took the bag, weighed it, and immediately opened his squinted eyes, which were the size of mung beans, wide open, with a greedy gleam in his eyeballs.

"Wow! My lord, it's full of gold? No, with my lord's salary, I'm afraid I won't be able to save so much in ten lifetimes!"

The wretched man chuckled, obviously there was something in his words.

Shen Lian didn't respond to him, but stared indifferently at the other person's small eyes. After a moment of silence, a cold arc appeared at the corner of his mouth.

"The burrowing mouse, although you are a big thief, but you want to threaten me and swallow my things, you have to think carefully, don't lose your head for this!"

Threatening words were uttered, and cold and stern gazes suddenly poured out with murderous intent, and fell on the wretched man known as a burrowing mouse, which made him tremble all over, and those eyes that radiated greed were also narrowed again. , when his eyes swept over the flying fish suit on Shen Lian's body, his spine felt a chill, and all his little thoughts were swept away in an instant.

"Don't worry, sir. I, the hole-stealing rat, will definitely complete this matter. I will never dare to make the slightest move. If I try to deceive you, I will be struck by five thunders and my soul will be driven away!"

The burrowing mouse scolded itself as an idiot in its heart, but on the surface it hurriedly swears poisonously.

"Hmph! I can't believe the thief's oath, but I'm not afraid of you playing tricks, because I will keep an eye on you!"

Shen Lian opened and slowly closed the five fingers of the palm holding the handle of the Xiuchun Knife. This movement made the Burrowing Mouse's eyes tremble, and he lowered his head even lower.

"I'll give you one day to complete this matter. At noon tomorrow, we will still meet here."

After explaining the matter, Shen Lian walked out of the alley and headed towards the tavern.

He believed that the thief, the burglar who once stole pearls worth nearly 10 taels of silver from local wealthy merchants in the south of the Yangtze River, knew what would happen if he was caught by him. There are thousands of connections, and now is the time when the eunuch party is down and the scribe group is rising.

Of course, these are not what he relies on. What gives him confidence is that he will do what he says and he will stare at the burrowing rat.

Once there is any change in the burrowing mouse, he will not hold back, kill it first and then talk about other things!
