Xiao Chenbing's voice was not loud, but it turned into a heavy hammer and struck hard on the hearts of all who came.Especially Mrs. Tang, who was under the threat of the sword's edge, felt cold in her hands and feet, became dizzy for a while, and accidentally fell to the ground while retreating subconsciously.

The broken sword followed like a shadow, and immediately wrapped around her neck.

Seeing this, the followers became more and more nervous.This was not only because Mrs. Tang's life was threatened, but also because Xiao Chenbing gave them a strong sense of oppression, and that kind of immortal method of controlling swords could kill them all in the blink of an eye.

The man in the center of sight glanced at Lin Zhou with deep eyes.

Lin Zhou: "..."

For some reason, he actually read a hint of "you see, I can be a bodyguard, but I'm very good at it", and instantly felt that his cognition was severely hit, so that he couldn't look directly at the other party.

He quickly averted his gaze, signaled the fearful human wall to get out of the way, and said to the shivering woman on the ground: "Mrs. Tang, it's useless to make such a fuss, why don't you tell me the specific problem, maybe I can help you." Busy. My store has been open for two years, and the reputation in the market has always been good, and Mrs. Tang should give her more trust."

His words are actually considered modest. In fact, according to the word of mouth of the residents of Shuangyue Town, the Lingcao Hall has been deified to the point where it can be compared to the treasure house of the famous sect in the Central Plains.Except for the difficult period of starting a business at the beginning, now he rarely encounters complaints from customers, let alone the situation of bringing people to the store.Therefore, he was quite surprised that Mrs. Tang came to him like this.

Of course, the fundamental reason for the good reputation is that the quality of the products is indeed guaranteed, so Lin Zhou has the responsibility and need to figure out what is going on in the face of severe criticism from customers.

Mrs. Tang glanced at the broken silver sword stuck around her neck, tried her best to stabilize her trembling voice, and said coldly: "You just let me say this? Are you planning to drop your head if something is wrong?"

Lin Zhou couldn't help laughing: "It's just because your previous actions disturbed my other guests. If Mrs. Tang can promise not to make a big move before explaining the situation to us, then he will definitely not be so guarded."

Mrs. Tang was silent for a moment, and finally reluctantly agreed.

Receiving Lin Zhou's gaze, Xiao Chenbing was about to recall the Broken Sword, and held it between his two fingers and shook it slightly, as if he was playing with it casually.However, his skill of controlling the sword has been deeply imprinted in the eyes of all his followers, so that they dare not relax or be careless at all, and all of them are highly tense.

Mrs. Tang also felt lingering fear, but she quickly regained her composure on the surface, straightened her messy clothes, and then told in detail the tragic experience that happened to her son.

It turned out that just a few days ago, her precious son who hadn't had a good rest for a long time suddenly fell asleep until the sun was up, which made the whole family feel very relieved, thinking that the requiem grass and red stone fruit bought back by the Lingcaotang had an effect.Who ever thought that after his son woke up, terrible things began to happen.He overeats recklessly at first, gaining weight at a speed visible to the naked eye, but then vomited and diarrhea crazily yesterday, as if he wanted to expel all the things he ate before.

Because she was worried about her son's physical condition, she specially found the best doctor in the town, but before he could make a diagnosis, he fell into a coma.

Speaking of this, Mrs. Tang choked up a little: "My poor son has not been able to wake up until now, and his whole body has become extremely emaciated. The doctors were helpless, and only said that it might be caused by eating some poison by mistake."

She widened her eyes and stared at Lin Zhou with resentment in her sad expression: "What else can you say? Our whole family eats the same meal every day, and he only took more of the medicine from your store. Spirit grass! Isn’t it already obvious what the poison is!?”

"But Mrs. Tang, the medicinal properties of requiem grass and red stone fruit are very mild. Even if you eat them as food for decades, you shouldn't have such symptoms at all." After a pause, Lin Zhou continued, "And according to your prescription According to the statement, the doctor is only guessing that it is related to the accidental ingestion of poison."

In my impression, the son's spirit veins were very chaotic. Although it was far worse than Xiao Chenbing's miserable situation, it was not caused by various accidents in daily life.Combined with Boss Tang's concealment at the time, it is easy to think that there must be human factors here. He originally thought that there was no need to take care of other people's affairs, but he didn't expect this matter to come to the door himself.

Mrs. Tang felt that Lin Zhou was shirking responsibility, and she said angrily, "Then why do you say that?"

Lin Zhou sighed and asked, "I wonder if Madam has communicated with Mr. Tang properly?"

Mrs. Tang was startled: "What do you mean?"

Just at this moment, Master Tang breathlessly exclaimed from outside the door: "Oh, ma'am, you actually removed the door panel... You were too impulsive, really impulsive! Don't cause trouble to Boss Lin." Troubled, I told you it has nothing to do with him!"

The entourage stepped aside, and the chubby middle-aged man walked into the store while wiping his sweat, and apologized to Lin Zhou without saying a word: "Boss Lin, I'm really sorry! Ma'am, she is so ruthless because she loves her son dearly." Sorry for the offense, please forgive me."

Lin Zhou said lightly: "It's okay, just remember to pay for the smashed and damaged things in the store."

Boss Tang nodded heavily: "Of course, Boss Lin just report the amount to me."

Then he was going to drag Mrs. Tang away.

But Mrs. Tang's feet didn't move as if they were on the ground. She even grabbed her husband's arm to prevent him from walking, and asked sharply, "Are you hiding something from me!?"

"Husband, madam, what are you talking about?"

"I'm talking about our son!"

Boss Tang wiped his sweat again, and said embarrassingly, "Let's talk about this matter when we go back..."

"You don't need to go back, just tell me clearly here, does your son's illness have anything to do with him!?" Mrs. Tang refused to let go, and increased her strength with her five fingers pinching her arm, and her nails seemed to be digging into her husband's. Rouli, "Don't leave unless you make it clear! It's about our only son, how can you be so perfunctory!"

Boss Tang, who has been in business for many years, has already developed a temperament of being kind and rich, and he has been strict with his wife for many years. Facing his wife's sharp questioning, he was defeated after a short struggle.

"Just say it, don't be fierce."

Boss Tang waved his hand to push back his followers, hesitantly glanced at Xiao Chenbing, and found that the other party lowered his brows and eyes, and he didn't seem to have any intention of avoiding it, and there was a slender broken sword between his fingers. With a cold light.He felt inexplicably guilty, thought about it, and decided to try his best to pretend that the other party didn't exist, and focus on Lin Zhou.

After all, in comparison, although the boss didn't show the usual smile, Lin's aura was much gentler.

His wife was still urging her, but Boss Tang sighed and finally revealed the hidden secret: "It's like this, I met a fairy teacher a few days ago, and he said that there is a way for my son to embark on the road of cultivation. , just need to take a specific elixir to wash the marrow and cleanse the body..."

"You believe this!??" Mrs. Tang showed an unbelievable look, really wanting to pry open her husband's brain to see what the original structure is inside, "Have you encountered such a liar before?"

Ah Xi said triumphantly in Lin Zhou's mind: "I guessed it right, it really is my own fault!"

Boss Tang argued: "That fairy teacher is really powerful, and not long after taking the elixir, his son really managed to conjure flames out of thin air! He couldn't sleep at night, and the fairy teacher said it was because of his physical aptitude improved. The inevitable process can be passed smoothly only with the supplement of requiem grass, so I came to Boss Lin to buy medicine... who knows what will happen later!"

Speaking of this, he lowered his head in frustration: "I have already sent someone to find the immortal master, but his cave is hundreds of miles away in the deep mountains and forests, and it will definitely take a lot of time to go back and forth."

Mrs. Tang laughed angrily: "It's really hard for you, why didn't you mention such an important matter to me??"

"Because the fairy teacher warned us not to publicize this matter to the outside world. He doesn't want to be disturbed. Ma'am, you also know that you have some—of course only a little—that you can't keep secrets." Boss Tang swallowed Swallowing, he said with a guilty conscience, "After something happened to my son, I dared not tell you even more."

Madam Tang: "..."

Boss Tang: "It's my fault...but I don't think it has anything to do with Boss Lin, so don't bother him!"

Mrs. Tang: "Is this the point now? What about our poor son? And how do you know that there is no influence of requiem grass or red stone fruit? I think we should let him go back with us to see what happened to our son. Condition……"

Boss Tang: "But..."

"Be safe, both of you." Lin Zhou interrupted their conversation with a few coughs, and said, "Actually, Madam's suggestion is good, and I also think it is necessary to confirm whether Mr. Ling's illness is related to the spirit grass sold in this shop. "

Boss Tang was very moved and thanked him repeatedly.

For some reason, Mrs. Tang felt a sense of foreboding, so she hurriedly urged: "Then stop dawdling, and hurry up!"

Lin Zhou nodded slightly, and briefly packed up the things that needed to be carried with him, and was about to tell Xiao Chenbing to remember to change the medicine on time, when he turned around and saw that he had followed silently.

"...Fellow Daoist, do you want to go together too?"

Xiao Chenbing let out a "hmm" from his throat, and he didn't have the consciousness of being a shopkeeper at all.

*****

The Tang Mansion is located in the southwest corner of Shuangyue Town, and has a grandeur comparable to that of Rong Ziyi's family.

As soon as they entered the gate, a young man dressed as a servant hurried over and said in panic, "Master, madam, something is wrong!"

Mrs. Tang's heart skipped a beat: "What's wrong?"

The servant shouted: "My lord...he has blossomed!"

Lin Zhou was very stunned when he heard this, and thought it was really strange, why did he always meet some familiar faces recently?
