Tao Qiming was anxious. On the surface, he was more anxious than Jiang Jingshu and paced back and forth.

"They're talking about this gambling house, aren't they? Are they blackmailing us?" he didn't believe those people. How could he happen to know the whereabouts of doctor Xue.

Jiang Jingshu's eyes sank. "It should be true. Their eyes are true, and there is no need to deceive us."

"Then why can't I find it?" Tao Qiming was worried.

"Ask someone. Someone should know the whereabouts of doctor Xue."

After half an hour, I finally learned the news from a man's mouth.

"Ah... That old man Xue must have been sold again."

"Sold?" Jiang Jingshu was stunned.

"Yes, if you can't pay off the debt, you'll be sold as a slave. But... He'll be back soon." the man smiled twice and didn't say much.

Tao Qiming also looked at a loss. He left the master for many years and didn't know how the master lived.

"Let's go." Jiang Jingshu reminded him, and he just recovered.

The three went to the black market again.

There is everything in the black market. Birds and beasts, jade and pearls, and even hard work can be bought and sold.

The three entered the black market. It was the first time they came to such a place. They had no bottom in their hearts.

Lengxue closely followed Jiang Jingshu, holding the long sword, looking cold. If someone who doesn't know good or bad dares to touch the young lady, she will cut off the hand without hesitation.

It was because of the cold snow that others dared not approach and gave way.

The three walked slowly, and Jiang Jingshu glanced around.

Finally, I found a group of people sitting on the ground in the corner. The fierce strong man sat in front of the crowd and ate noodles.

Jiang Jingshu stopped.

She saw those people wearing handcuffs and foot cuffs, obviously sold as coolies.

When the strong man saw the three young masters with white faces, he immediately put the following bowl, "do you want to buy hard labor? I have everyone here, so you can choose!"

Then he pointed to the man behind him.

The people sitting on the ground were dressed in ragged clothes and looked haggard. They all raised their heads and looked frightened.

Some people show hope that they want to be bought quickly. As long as they can make a living and have a place to sleep, it's better than anything.

"Look," Jiang Jingshu whispered to Tao Qiming.

Tao Qiming stepped forward and swept their faces one by one, looking for the figure of the master.

But everyone was almost the same. His face was haggard and gray. He really couldn't recognize who was who. Tao Qiming hoped that the master could recognize him and take the initiative to recognize him, but no one spoke.

Jiang Jingshu also looked over and frowned slightly.

Some of the people sitting on the ground are sleeping on the ground, unkempt and unkempt. It's too difficult to recognize their appearance.

Is Dr Xue really among these people?

She walked over with doubts.

Lengxue grabbed Jiang Jingshu's clothes and shook his head slightly, "don't get too close."

She was afraid that these people would hurt the young lady.

Although they were all handcuffed and handcuffed, they could not stop the insane madman. It would be bad if they hurt the young lady.

"Nothing." Jiang Jingshu said calmly. She just took a look at it and wouldn't get too close. Lengxue released her hand and grasped the long sword tightly.

Jiang Jingshu walked carefully step by step and scanned the crowd.

Tao Qiming frowned. He was not sure which was his master.

“……”

After a long time, Tao Qiming turned back and shook his head, "there seems to be no here... Why don't we go somewhere else?"

Jiang Jingshu looked at the sleeping crowd lying across the distance, "look carefully again."

"OK." Tao Qiming replied.

She walked over and passed people in rags.

When you get to the corner, stop.

She looked straight at the sleeping man lying across in front of her, with shabby coarse linen clothes and dark face. She didn't know how much dust had been covered.

Jiang Jingshu paused for a moment and whispered, "doctor Xue?"

The lying man didn't respond.

Jiang Jingshu flashed a different color in the bottom of her eyes and stared at the person in front of her.

"Jiang... Brother Jiang!" Tao Qiming almost shouted out Miss Jiang. Seeing her man's dress, he changed his mouth. He quickly came over.

Jiang Jingshu still looked at the man in front of him, "he is doctor Xue."

"Master?"

Tao Qiming was stunned and dared not recognize each other.

Is the unkempt old man in front of him his master?

Tao Qiming stretched out his hand and pushed the old man. The old man opened his eyes vaguely and frowned, "who dares to wake me up!"

"Master!" when I heard the voice, it was really his master!

"Master, it's a disciple!"

Doctor Xue turned his face and looked at Tao Qiming. He was neither surprised nor surprised. He just said calmly, "it's Tao, you..."

"Master, why are you in such a place? Why are you in debt?"

"Hum." doctor Xue got up and snorted discontentedly, "I'm just unlucky."

"I'll take you back!"

Tao Qiming was really surprised. He stared at doctor Xue closely. Now he felt that this face looked familiar. Just now he didn't recognize it, but Miss Jiang recognized it.

Eh? Wait

Miss Jiang has never seen the master. How did she recognize him?

And even as a disciple, he didn't recognize this appearance!

"Brother Jiang, how do you know?" Tao Qiming was suspicious.

"He has a smell of herbs." Jiang Jingshu said faintly. She has a sensitive smell. When she passed the old man, she smelled a faint smell of herbs.

This smell would not exist if it were not for people who touch herbs all year round.

Tao Qiming admires, "it's worthy of brother Jiang."

Jiang Jingshu gave money to help doctor Xue pay off his debt. The strong man untied the handcuffs of doctor Xue, "all right, let's go! Don't delay me in doing business!"

Tao Qiming held doctor Xue respectfully and invited people into the carriage.

Jiang Jingshu and lengxue sit outside the carriage. Lengxue drives and is ready to go to the inn first and let doctor Xue clean his body.

In the carriage.

Tao Qiming looked at doctor Xue and said, "master, how did you fall into this situation? The money for consultation?"

When he was a disciple of doctor Xue, he never saw his master down and out.

Why did master become like this in a few years?

Doctor Xue closed his eyes and said, "children don't understand."

"The disciple is not a child..." Tao Qiming retorted. He has been with the master since childhood. The master is like a father to him.

Hearing this, doctor Xue opened his eyes and glanced at him.

"Who is that woman?"

Tao Qiming admired the master. The master was indeed a master. He saw through his face changing skill at a glance and recognized Miss Jiang as a woman.

"She is the young lady of the Jiang family in the capital." he answered truthfully.

"From the capital?" doctor Xue thought for a moment. "Miss your family, it's still a success. It's worthy of you."

"No..." Tao Qiming blushed and hurriedly explained, "Miss Jiang and I are innocent. Miss Jiang has been engaged!"

"With whom? Engaged to someone and ran out with you?"

"You eloped?"

Doctor Xue said one sentence after another. Tao Qiming looked embarrassed and didn't know how to refute.

Fortunately, Miss Jiang is not in the carriage, otherwise he looks like looking for a rat hole to drill in.

"Listen to me, master..."

Tao Qiming told doctor Xue everything. Doctor Xue understood what had happened. "Poison? Is there poison in the capital?"

"Listen to you, that Gu should be Acacia Gu."

"I think so too." Tao Qiming nodded with a straight face. He searched all the books for three days. Only Acacia Gu met brother Ning's symptoms.

However, his medical skill is still shallow. He doesn't dare to judge, and he doesn't know how to solve the Gu.

We can only find the master and let him do it.

"Interesting..." doctor Xue smiled in a low voice with bright eyes. "I've only encountered Gu poison three times so far. This poison is changeable, and it's particularly difficult to solve..."

"If I can, I really want to raise some poisonous insects."

Doctor Xue's smile is penetrating. If anyone sees him, he will never think he is a doctor.

The trickier the poison, the more excited he was.

Tao Qiming inherited this point and was ready to move when he saw the thorny poison.

"Don't delay. Let's go to the capital quickly! I want to see the poison with my own eyes!"

"Master... You'd better wash first."

Tao Qiming pinched his nose. There was a sour smell in the carriage. He wanted to cry without tears. He knew he should sit outside with Miss Jiang and them.

Jiang Jingshu leaned back against the carriage, and the dialogue between Tao Qiming and doctor Xue was heard clearly.

After hearing the Acacia insect, her eyes coagulated slightly.

"Acacia Gu..."

This is the poison in Luo Qi.

The carriage soon drove to the gate of the inn. Tao Qiming took doctor Xue to freshen up.

Jiang Jingshu guarded the carriage, while lengxue went to the nearby shop to buy some dry food. Without delay, they immediately returned to the capital. We still need to eat and sleep in the open air, so we should prepare dry food.

An hour later, they walked out of the inn.

Doctor Xue cleaned up and changed his clothes. He looked like a kind old man.

Doctor Xue looked up and down at Jiang Jingshu, "girl, do you understand medicine?"

"Slightly understand."

Jiang Jingshu respectfully replied that she did not dare to teach in front of doctor Xue. She just knew a little fur. It was nothing.

Doctor Xue smiled with satisfaction.

He has heard what Jiang Jingshu did.

It's admirable that a girl from a delicate background is so willing to bear hardships. In order to save people, she came to this distant Liuzhou from the capital.

Unfortunately, if only I could make a pair with his disciples.

Unfortunately, someone has long been in my heart.

Jiang Jingshu doesn't know what doctor Xue thinks, but looks at doctor Xue with strange eyes.

Doctor Xue waved his hand, "OK, you two girls can get into the carriage. I'll drive the carriage with my apprentice!" doctor Xue knew very well and absolutely didn't let the two girls show up.

Jiang Jingshu did not refuse, nodded slightly, "it's hard for doctor Xue."

Four people left Liucheng in a carriage.

A group of people sent by Lord Yin are still looking in Liucheng and find strong men selling hard work.

With a knife across the strong man's neck, he asked coldly, "where's old Xue?"

The strong man turned pale with fear, "old Xue... I don't know who old Xue is..."

The man's face was cold and had no emotion at all. The knife moved slightly in front of the strong man's neck and immediately shed blood. The strong man trembled. "I remember! Is it the unkempt old man? He has been bought!"

"Bought it? Who bought it?"

"I don't know. It's three young men..."

"Three people..." the man bit his teeth. "We're a step late again!"
