Tianxing Pavilion.

"What? You said Pavilion Master Liang is not here? Where did he go?"

Outside the dimly lit Tianxing Pavilion, Su Xuqing's voice sounded particularly anxious.

Now Shen Xuanheng's life is hanging by a thread, and it is hard to say whether she can survive the night. Now she can only hold on to a glimmer of hope and see if the powerful master of Tianxing Pavilion can help her find the miraculous doctor who is hiding in the city.

But at this moment, the guards outside the Tianxiang Pavilion told her that Liang Heng was not in the pavilion.

"The Pavilion Master always comes and goes without a trace. Sometimes he disappears for several days in a row. We don't know where he went..."

The guard shrugged his shoulders, his tone helpless.

This sentence was like the straw that broke the camel's back, and Su Xuqing staggered back a few steps.

How could this happen… Am I destined to lose him?

Do not!no!

The disappointment in Su Xuqing's eyes suddenly disappeared and she became determined!

There is another way!

Since Liang Heng is not here, then we should find a way to find that wandering monk. As long as we can get the "Shennong Herbal Classic", my husband can be saved.

If the Prince of Zhennan's Mansion can't find it, then we'll ask Miss Sun Youwei for help. If Miss Sun can't find it either, then the Princess' Mansion may have some favors to offer!

In short, do your best and leave the rest to fate!

Su Xuqing took a deep breath, turned around and left, not daring to delay for even a moment.

"Ouch!"

As soon as Su Xuqing turned around, she bumped into someone. The person staggered and fell to the ground with his legs up in the air.

"Feel sorry……"

Holding his forehead, Su Xuqing quickly pulled him up.

The man who was knocked down had gray hair and looked to be over 70 years old. He was wearing a Taoist robe full of patches. If he had an immortal look, he might have looked like a Taoist master, but this man had shifty eyes and looked like a charlatan.

After he stood up, he grabbed Su Xuqing's wrist with a smile.

"Haha, old Taoist, I was worried that I wouldn't have a place to eat tonight. Come on, come on, you bumped me down, you should treat me to a meal."

The old Taoist priest's hand was quite strong. Su Xuqing hurriedly used her toes to push against the bluestone slab on the ground to stop herself. She frowned and said, "Master, my husband's life is in danger. I have to find a way to save him. I don't have time to treat you to a meal. Why don't I give you some silver and you can go by yourself?"

Upon hearing this, the old Taoist looked at Su Xuqing's face with a smile, and also glanced at her chest with a lewd look on his face.

"Girl, you are not worthy of being fed by me. I have my own way to save you and others..."

Su Xuqing's pretty face turned slightly cold. This old Taoist priest looked frivolous. It was obvious from his expression that he wanted to take advantage of the situation. How could he possibly save people?

In addition, Su Xuqing was worried about Shen Xuanheng at the moment and couldn't help but get angry.

But when the words came to her lips, she suddenly held them back because she remembered the monk who collapsed outside the gate of Zhennan Palace on that windy and snowy afternoon.

That man was also in rags, but he was an accomplished monk. The "Shennong Herbal Classic" he gave her has benefited her to this day...

A mountain is not famous for its height, but for the immortals; a river is not famous for its depth, but for the dragons; never judge a person by his appearance...

Su Xuqing was open-minded and suppressed her anxiety. She said softly, "What the Taoist said is true. Human life is at stake."

The old Taoist raised an eyebrow and reached out to tap Su Xuqing, "You actually doubted my ability. Let me tell you a fortune!"

As he spoke, the old Taoist pinched his fingers and muttered to himself, his eyes darting up and down.

"Ok?"

The old Taoist made a sound of doubt and then stared at Su Xuqing with a look of horror, "This is strange. You were originally a short-lived person, but there is a purple aura in your fate, as if a master has changed your fate..."

After hearing these words, Su Xuqing got goose bumps all over her body.

Could this old Taoist priest have discovered the secret of my rebirth? Could he really be a master?

"Taoist Master."

"Don't worry, I'll calculate it again."

"Don't forget it, I'll trust you this time, let's go, I'll treat you to a meal!"

Su Xuqing's eyes seemed to light up. She admitted that there was an element of gambling involved, but for some reason, she felt that she had a great chance of winning.

After all, we have been reborn, so what is impossible?

The old Taoist narrowed his eyes and showed approval when he heard this. He exclaimed: "Good, good, good, you are a very good girl. I like you very much."

Opposite the Tianxing Pavilion is a restaurant that has been booked.

Su Xuqing ordered a banquet with countless wine and meat. The old Taoist priest sat down in a careless manner, without any proper table manners. He grabbed the pork elbow with his hands, and his face was covered with oil.

Su Xuqing certainly couldn't eat at this moment, so she asked cautiously, "Master, my husband's energy and meridians are damaged and his life is at stake. What can you do to save him?"

The old Taoist drank heavily and said, "Although medicine and Taoism are inseparable, I don't know how to treat patients."

After hearing this, Su Xuqing's expression was filled with surprise and doubt.

Is this old Taoist priest really reliable? One moment he says he can save the person, and the next moment he says he doesn’t know how.

The old Taoist priest seemed to see Su Xuqing's doubts, and said while chewing the meat: "If it is destined to happen, it will happen. If it is not destined to happen, don't force it. Treat impermanence with a normal mind, and that is the best and most foolproof method."

Hearing this, Su Xuqing's face was full of bitterness. She said in a sad voice: "Master, you don't know, I have a miserable life. It was not until I met my husband that I tasted the warmth of this world. He is my life. I can't live without him, and I can't be calm and inactive."

The old Taoist priest smiled, said nothing, and continued eating.

Su Xuqing felt like sitting on pins and needles and wanted to get up and leave countless times, but she held back.

Life is like playing chess. Once you make a move, don't regret it. Even if you ask everyone for help now, you may not be able to find the wandering monk. It's a gamble anyway, so you might as well bet that this old Taoist priest is not an ordinary person.

After eating and drinking, the old Taoist burped in a very rude way.

"Comfortable, comfortable. I haven't eaten so well in a long time."

Seeing that he had finished eating, Su Xuqing wanted to ask more questions, but the old Taoist just stood up and said, "Oh, I have been walking all day, and my feet are sore. Go get me a basin of hot water to soak my feet."

Su Xuqing was stunned for a moment, then calmed down.

"it is good."

She stood up and left, and the old Taoist priest looked at her butt with a smile.

"Not bad, not bad. She's a good fertile one."

About a cup of tea later, Su Xuqing came back. As soon as she entered the door, the basin in her hand fell to the ground and her face turned pale.

Because the room was empty, there was no trace of the Taoist priest.

It's over, I've been cheated.

Su Xuqing leaned weakly against the beam, holding her forehead with her hand. Tears welled up in her eyes and she felt so bitter that she couldn't speak.

The hemp rope is cut at the delicate point, and bad luck finds the poor.

Am I destined to lose my beloved and suffer for the rest of my life? Can't I live happily in two lives?

The evening breeze came in from the window, and there was a rustling sound on the table.

Su Xuqing slowly raised her tearful face and looked at the dining table, and found a few yellowed papers under the jar of wine that the old Taoist had drunk from.

She quickly wiped away her tears, walked over in a panic, and then she was stunned.
