I traveled through time with my best friend.

Chapter 170: Trouble in Wanhetang.



Chapter 170: Trouble in Wanhetang.

Jiang Xue looked at Lin Yiyi standing quietly under the willow tree, and her eyes couldn't help but feel distressed. When Yiyi woke up this time, she seemed to have changed a lot, as if she talked less.

Lin Yiyi looked at the willow trees swaying gently in the wind, and couldn't help but reach out and grab the willow branches that she gently stroked. The thin willow branches felt cold and tender in her hands, and as soon as she loosened her hands a little, the branches slipped away from her hands.

Lin Yiyi's heart sank as she watched the willow branches swaying slightly in the wind again, and unexpectedly, Wang Ziyan's face appeared.

Lin Yiyi closed her eyes, tears gently sliding down her cheeks. She and Wang Ziyan... seemed like they were just in a dream, and now that they were waking up, it was time to part ways.

"If I had known it would be so heartbreaking, I would have never met you in the first place." Lin Yiyi said softly.

Jiang Xue walked forward and whispered, "Actually, Wang Ziyan has always wanted to see you, but I stopped him..."

"The stars have gone last night, but the green mountains remain. Xue'er, please help me tell him this."

Jiang Xue's eyes tightened and she asked, "Are you really going to be so decisive?"

"Well, he is a high and mighty young marquis, and the owner of the Shadow Hall. He is the only one who has no weak points, so he will not get hurt."

Jiang Xue lowered her eyes, understood what Lin Yiyi meant, and nodded, "Okay, I'll ask someone to tell him, go back to the house, you still have to go find Hongying tonight."

"it is good."

Just as the two turned around and prepared to go back to the house, a maid walked in quickly from outside the courtyard, "Miss, someone is coming from Wanhe Hall."

Jiang Xue and Lin Yiyi turned around at the same time.

"Let him in." Jiang Xue said softly.

After the maid left, a servant wearing Wanhetang clothes came in from outside. Jiang Xue had seen him before, so she asked directly, "What happened?"

The servant said anxiously, "Miss, there is a commotion in Wanhe Hall."

"What's going on? Explain it clearly." Jiang Xue said solemnly.

"In the past few days, there have been people who have been infected with the flower poison coming to Wanhe Hall for treatment, but Doctor Liu can only suppress it temporarily. Two people have died in the past two days, and those people are anxious and making a fuss."

Jiang Xue had been taking care of Lin Yiyi these past few days and had not paid much attention to the flower Gu matter, which had unexpectedly deteriorated so much.

After hearing this, Jiang Xue hurriedly said to Lin Yiyi: "Yiyi, I'll go over and take a look."

Lin Yiyi grabbed Jiang Xue's hand and said, "I'll go with you."

Jiang Xue lowered her eyes and thought for a moment. It would be easy for Yiyi to have wild thoughts if she was alone. Why not let her go to Wanhetang to have a look? She looked up at Yiyi and said, "Okay."

The two of them went out and took a carriage heading towards Wanhetang. Wanhetang was located in the most prosperous area of the capital, but when the carriage drove into this busy street, there were only a few people selling things on the street.

Lin Yiyi lowered the curtain, looked at Jiang Xue and said, "What happened? Why is the street so deserted?"

Jiang Xue told Lin Yiyi about the flower poison and warned her, "There is no solution to the flower poison yet. You must be careful and don't touch anything that looks brightly colored."

"kindness."

When they arrived at the gate of Wanhetang, the two men got off the carriage and saw that there were more people making trouble at the gate than on the street.

Amid the commotion, Jiang Xue saw that Doctor Liu had been squeezed in the middle, unable to move forward or backward.

The people of Wanhetang could no longer stop the people. Seeing the chaos, Jiang Xue ordered the servant to take Lin Yiyi to the back door.

Lin Yiyi knew that she couldn't help much, so she whispered, "Be careful."

"it is good."

After Lin Yiyi entered from the back door, Jiang Xue looked at the crowd, which was so dense, and then she put her hands on her waist and shouted behind them: "If you want to live, stop!"

The voice stopped abruptly, and everyone turned around to look, only to see Jiang Xue standing alone next to the carriage.

Time stood still for a second or two. Just when Jiang Xue thought that those people were going to pounce on her, they turned their heads away and started pulling Doctor Liu again.

Jiang Xue: "..."

Since you won’t listen, I’ll have to take action.

Jiang Xue used her Qinggong skills to fly quickly towards the crowd, picked up Doctor Liu from the crowd, and then flew back to the carriage.

Doctor Liu's white clothes had been wrinkled beyond recognition by those people, his hair was disheveled, his hair crown was crooked, and he was leaning against the carriage, gasping for breath.

When those people saw Doctor Liu being pulled away, they turned around and ran towards Jiang Xue.

Doctor Liu's eyes widened before he could even breathe. Jiang Xue said quickly, "Hide in the carriage."

Doctor Liu nodded nervously and climbed into the carriage using his hands and feet.

When those people were about to pull Doctor Liu off the carriage, Jiang Xue stood in front of them and asked sternly, "What do you want to do?"

A group of people surrounded the carriage. The person standing in the middle was a thin middle-aged man with a very long face, small eyes and a small mouth. But he bared his yellow teeth and said to Jiang Xue, "We want to find Doctor Liu to treat us."

The person next to him echoed, "Yes." Then he shouted into the carriage, "Doctor Liu! Are you really going to watch us die without saving us? Everyone says that Doctor Liu is a miracle doctor, why don't you even treat our illness?"

Doctor Liu's guilty voice rang out in the carriage, "Everyone, it's not that I can't treat you, but I really can't do anything!"

"Then how can you be qualified to be a miracle doctor and save people?" someone in the crowd cursed.

"That's right, he's just a liar."

The man with yellow teeth continued, "I think Wanhetang is a big liar who specializes in deceiving poor people like us."

"That's right." People in the crowd nodded in agreement.

"Smash Wanhetang and let them continue to swindle people!" Huang Ya shouted indignantly.

As soon as he finished speaking, the crowd began to surge and run towards Wanhetang.

Jiang Xue frowned, and flew to the entrance of Wanhe Hall with a flip. She said in a sharp voice, "Who dares?"

Huang Ya pointed at Jiang Xue angrily and asked, "Who are you?"

"I am the owner of Wanhetang."

Huang Ya's expression changed, and then he shouted loudly: "The owner of Wanhetang is here, everyone hurry up and catch her!"

Jiang Xue looked at Huang Ya with a stern expression, ran towards Huang Ya quickly, and then swung Huang Ya hard, and Huang Ya was thrown onto the open space next to him.

"Ouch!" Huang Ya got up in pain. Before he could say anything, Jiang Xue had already walked in front of Huang Ya and asked coldly, "Who sent you here?"

Huang Ya's expression trembled, and a hint of surprise flashed across his eyes, but he quickly hid it and shouted to the people: "The people from Wanhetang are beating people! They are beating people!"

Jiang Xue impatiently pulled up Huang Ya, looked at the people and said, "This man has bad intentions. If you still follow him to target Wanhetang, then you won't be able to recover from your illness."

A man in the crowd said weakly, "Do you really have a way to cure our disease?"

Jiang Xue looked over and saw that the person who was speaking was a man in his early twenties with a pale face. His originally straight back was now slightly bent. He placed his hands on his abdomen and looked at Jiang Xue with longing eyes.

Jiang Xue's lips moved slightly and she was about to speak.

Then a clear male voice was heard beside the carriage, "Of course!"

Jiang Xue frowned and looked over. Wang Chen was standing beside the carriage wearing a coarse cloth robe and had a serious look on his face. His eyes were firm.

Everyone looked over. Wang Chen walked through the crowd with a determined look in his eyes and walked towards Jiang Xue. The corners of his mouth slightly raised. He turned around and looked at the people and said loudly: "Everyone, you have contracted a strange disease for no apparent reason. It is understandable that you are anxious, but you really shouldn't vent your anger on Wanhetang."

"The reputation of Wanhetang is obvious to all. As long as everyone works together, I believe we will find the cause of the disease. Wanhetang will also help everyone and overcome the difficulties together."

Wang Chen's words calmed the anger of the people who were about to continue making trouble. The man who had just spoken in the crowd also said, "I believe in Wanhetang."

As soon as these words came out, the people all lowered their heads and said one after another: "Girl, we are almost tortured to death by this disease, you must save us."

Huang Ya, who was standing by, saw that the people had no intention of continuing the commotion, so he said anxiously, "Don't count on Wanhetang. They can't cure you."

"Shut up!" Jiang Xue slapped Huang Ya with her palm, and Huang Ya fainted.

Doctor Liu lifted the curtain of the carriage and looked outside. Seeing that the people had been stabilized, he jumped off the carriage, straightened his robe, and then walked towards Jiang Xue.

He bowed to the people and then said, "Everyone, I'm sorry, I really can't do anything, but my boss behind me may have a way, so I hope everyone can trust Wanhetang."

The people had calmed down. They bowed slightly to Doctor Liu and then slowly dispersed. After the crowd had dispersed, the man in his early twenties was still standing there, staring at Jiang Xue.

Jiang Xue threw the yellow tooth on the ground, walked up to the man and asked, "Aren't you leaving?"

The man pursed his pale lips slightly and asked hesitantly, "Can I stay in Wanhetang?"

"Are you feeling unwell?" Jiang Xue asked with concern.

“No.” The man shook his head gently and said, “I think I have contracted that strange disease. I have a younger sister at home. If I go back and get sick, my sister will be scared.”

Jiang Xue frowned slightly and asked, "Stretch out your hand?"

The man stretched out his hand obediently. Jiang Xue placed her somewhat cold fingers on the man's wrist and began to take his pulse. Sure enough, his condition was the same as those other people.

"How long have you had this abdominal pain?"

"I felt a slight abdominal pain three days ago."

Jiang Xue pondered for a moment, thinking that if she wanted to study this flower Gu, she would have to have someone to test the medicine on. The person in front of her was young and the disease had just begun, which just met her requirements.

Then he asked, "I may be able to cure your disease, but there are certain risks."

The man was also very smart. He knew what Jiang Xue meant, so he smiled and nodded, saying, "If the girl can try out the antidote on me, I would be happy to do that."

Jiang Xue chuckled. She didn't expect him to agree so readily, so she asked, "What's your name?"

"Park Sang."

“It’s a nice name.”

"Thank you." The man nodded politely, holding his abdomen.

Jiang Xue turned to look at Doctor Liu and said softly, "Take him to the backyard first and arrange a sunny room for him. I'll be there soon."

"it is good."

Doctor Liu nodded and helped Park Sheng into Wanhe Hall.

Wang Chen said from the side: "Miss Jiang, you are finally back."

Jiang Xue looked at Wang Chen and nodded slightly, then asked, "How is your mother's health?"

"Thanks to your medicine, my mother is much better now."

"That's good. Can I trouble you for something?" Jiang Xue looked at the yellow tooth and asked Wang Chen.

Wang Chen nodded and said, "Ms. Jiang, please speak?"

"Can you help me send this person to Lord Pei and give him a message?"

"I am willing to serve." Wang Chen said softly.

After Jiang Xue thanked him, she continued, "Please hand him over to Lord Pei and tell him that this man mixed in with the crowd and deliberately incited the people. His behavior is very suspicious. Maybe he can be a breakthrough."

"Okay." Wang Chen nodded slightly.

After watching Wang Chen drive away in the carriage, Jiang Xue entered Wanhe Hall and walked towards the backyard.

In the room, Lin Yiyi was trying to comfort Park Sheng who was sick, but Park Sheng was rolling on the bed in pain and almost kicked Lin Yiyi.

Fortunately, Jiang Xue came in and quickly pulled Yiyi away, otherwise if Lin Yiyi didn't dodge, the kick would have hit her abdomen.

Lin Yiyi saw Jiang Xue coming in, and said anxiously: "Xue'er, go see him quickly."

Jiang Xue looked towards Park Sheng, and the silver needle in her hand flew out. Park Sheng instantly calmed down. Jiang Xue then sat down and felt Park Sheng's pulse.

If there was nothing wrong with the pulse just now, then the pulse now was rushing wildly. Jiang Xue felt something was moving inside, affecting her meridians.

He frowned slightly, and suddenly quickly untied the belt around Park Sheng's waist, revealing his abdomen. He saw a small bulge on his abdomen that was moving slowly.

Lin Yiyi frowned upon seeing this and asked in surprise: "Is this... a living thing?"

Jiang Xue nodded slightly, took out the dagger, looked at Yiyi and said, "Candle."

Lin Yiyi quickly turned around and lit the candle on the table and took it over. Jiang Xue shook the dagger over the candle, and then gently poked the tip of the dagger at the bulge.

However, as soon as the tip of the dagger touched the abdomen, the bulge immediately flattened.

Lin Yiyi came closer and said, "No more."

Jiang Xue put down the dagger, her eyes moved, and then she slashed her palm with the dagger. Before Lin Yiyi could stop her, Jiang Xue gently stabbed Park Sheng's abdomen with the bloody dagger.

The small area that had just flattened out quickly bulged up again. Lin Yiyi's eyes widened for fear of missing something.

Jiang Xue turned her wrist slightly and pulled out the dagger, with a small red insect on the tip of the knife.

Lin Yiyi frowned, "Is this the flower Gu?"

Jiang Xue nodded, "Yes." Then she placed the dagger on the candle. The jumping flame touched the poisonous insect, and the flame immediately shot up high. After a moment, the poisonous insect turned to ashes.

Lin Yiyi asked in surprise: "Don't you want to study it?"

"Once the poisonous insect leaves the body, it will die." Jiang Xue said as she put the dagger aside.
