Changsheng: Peak at the Beginning

Zhuo Yichen started to arrange things right away: "It's not convenient for us to go separately right now, why don't we look for a clinic in the city first? We have Xiao Jiu, the little genius doctor, here, who will definitely be able to help develop a suitable prescription as soon as possible. As for catching monsters, that's the job of the rest of us."

"The clinic is easy to find." Zhao Yuanzhou flew up to the corner tower above the city gate and looked out. As expected, he found a very busy place in the east of the city. He thought that was where the clinic was. "There are many people walking around in a place not far from here in the east of the city. Maybe that's where the clinic is. Let's go. I'll lead the way."

Everyone walked and observed as they went, and when they entered the inner city they finally saw healthy people walking on the streets, but they all seemed to be walking towards the same place, and those who came out were all carrying medicine bags. When pedestrians met them they subconsciously stayed away from each other and were in a hurry.

Seeing such a group of well-dressed and impressive people, some people would come forward to inquire about the news. A middle-aged man in a blue silk robe greeted Jiang Xinxin and his party from about four or five feet away: "Where are you from, distinguished guests? Are you here to solve the plague in our town?"

When encountering such a thing, Bai Jiu took the initiative to speak up: "I am a doctor from Jixin Hall in Tiandu City. I have learned all the true teachings from Dr. Wen. Today, I passed by Sinan Water Town and encountered such a thing. Of course, I have to do my best to help."

When the middle-aged man heard that Bai Jiu was a doctor from Jixintang in Tiandu City and had received the true teachings of the great doctor Wen Zongyu, he could not help but move closer and said happily, "Oh, so you are a disciple of the great doctor Wen!"

"It just so happens that Divine Doctor Wen has come here for his travels and is now seeing patients in the clinic. The epidemic in our town is now entirely dependent on Divine Doctor Wen's care!"

Wen Zongyu actually came to Sinan Water Town. Not only Bai Jiu, the disciple who was most deeply touched, but even Pei Sijing, who had already guessed about Wen Zongyu's hidden identity, felt that everything was settled.

Bai Jiu was young and had quite a bit of experience, but he lacked the ability to conceal his emotions when facing his master Wen Zongyu, and Wen Zongyu saw through a lot of his things. So that night Wen Zongyu told everyone that he would leave Sinan Water Town to help Bai Jiu gather the available medicinal herbs.

Zhuo Yichen and Zhao Yuanzhou's opinion was to play the long game and hook the big fish, and have someone secretly follow Wen Zongyu to see what other forces were involved behind him.

Wen Xiao and Pei Sijing also agreed. Ying Lei was not quite clear about the whole story, but seeing that almost everyone agreed, he nodded along with Bai Jiu.

Only Jiang Xinxin objected: "When you have the ability to lead everything, you should not let go of the mastermind that has been inferred."

"If we suspected the wrong person and caused losses to Wen Zongyu, I am willing to make amends afterwards. But if we did not suspect the wrong person and arrested Wen Zongyu as soon as possible, perhaps we could have saved many innocent victims."

Jiang Xinxin didn't plan to convince everyone just like that. Anyway, she had made up her mind. Even if no one agreed, she would take down Wen Zongyu first. She had the strength and means to torture Wen Zongyu. What's more, Wen Zongyu was full of blood and injustice, and he wasn't innocent at all!

Wen Xiao quickly stopped Jiang Xinxin and said, "Master Yuan Xin, the world is full of laws and rules, especially in such a major event. If there is no solid evidence, it is very likely that Wen Zongyu will be unharmed if he acts rashly. Wouldn't that be too easy for him?"

Zhuo Yichen and Pei Sijing had similar ideas. The more serious the case, the more detailed and accurate the evidence and testimony needed without any omissions, otherwise there was a high possibility that Wen Zongyu would really turn the tables and escape.

Jiang Xinxin certainly knew this truth, but the key point was that she and the Demon Hunting Bureau were not following the same path.

Jiang Xinxin explained: "You need detailed and solid evidence to judge Wen Zongyu, but for me, just looking at his sins and karma is enough."

"Of course. Once I capture the person and interrogate him carefully, I will be able to find the evidence and testimony you want."

Jiang Xinxin walked out the door. Zhuo Yichen and Wen Xiao wanted to stop her, but Zhao Yuanzhou stopped her. "Sometimes you are too rigid in doing things. It is true that Wen Zongyu has not been convicted, but Lord Yuan Xin has never made a mistake. Since there is a way to be lazy, why do you have to keep yourself busy and act like you have to endure hardships?"

Zhuo Yichen sighed, "It's said that Wen Zongyu is involved in a lot of things, and he has a very good reputation. Now it seems to the outside world that Jixin Hall was deliberately burned down. Public opinion is speculating that someone is jealous of Wen Zongyu's good reputation and is trying to attack him and exclude him through some shady means, or trying to make him fall into trouble first and then take him in as a disciple, or else they are coveting his medical skills."

Seeing that Zhao Yuanzhou still didn't take it seriously, Wen Xiao simply provoked him: "Are you just making sarcastic remarks here because you don't have the ability to catch Wen Zongyu?"

Zhao Yuanzhou was so angry that he laughed. "Wen Zongyu is a doctor who is powerless. The most he can do is poison. What other tricks does he have?"

Bai Jiu carefully reminded Zhao Yuanzhou: "Didn't Lord Yuan Xin speculate that my master might be colluding with the great demon in the Great Wilderness? It's inevitable that the great demon knows your weakness, not to mention that the medicine my master gave me before is effective for you."

Pei Sijing also let go of her sarcasm: "Yes, some... monsters really think highly of themselves, narcissistic and arrogant. Lord Yuan Xin has a higher level of cultivation than you, but he has never been as coquettish as you."

Now Wen Zongyu can't escape Jiang Xinxin's control, so it's better for them to worry about the plague.

Zhuo Yichen was also a little troubled by this matter. "Any plague must have a source. Tomorrow, Wen Xiao, Ying Lei and I will go to the surrounding area to get some information and see if the source is in the town."

Bai Jiu took the task himself: "Then I will take the time to see more patients and develop a prescription as soon as possible."

Pei Sijing also accepted the task: "I will follow Xiaojiu, protect his safety, and get some information from the patients."

Zhao Yuanzhou seized the opportunity to retort sarcastically: "I have already said that this plague is very likely related to Fei. Didn't you hear what that person said this morning? This Sinan Water Town has always been blessed by Kunlun Mountain and has never suffered any disasters. It is now suddenly hit by the plague, and no suspicious people have appeared before."

"And I did sense Fei's demonic power and hostility from those patients."

Zhuo Yichen was so angry that he said, "Are you sick? Why didn't you tell me such an important thing earlier?"

Zhao Yuanzhou looked innocent, "I said before we even entered the city that it might be related to Fei."
