Chapter 396: The Strange Medicine Shop Owner
excessively luxurious. 。Every brick and tile in this courtyard is obviously polished. Walking through it, you can't detect even a trace of earthiness, yet the courtyard is filled with an abundance of...Several people looked down and indeed saw that the ground was covered with all sorts of insects at some point. Although it was just a drop of blood mixed with Peony flower pollen, the scene was still jaw-dropping.
Qin Luoyan frowned, her gaze falling on those insects. She hesitated for a moment before taking a step forward. Her thoughts had drifted far away, and her heart skipped a beat. These days, she'd always heard the phrase "special bloodline." Were there really so many special bloodlines in this world Last time, the Phoenix clan elder said before his death that the Phoenix clan bloodline was special, and now there were only four left. There was also something about a Phoenix clan saintess who was still out there.
Could it be that Yixing's grandmother was also a member of the Phoenix Clan If not, then how can we explain these special bloodlines Since they are special, where could we possibly encounter them so often This seems too much of a coincidence.
And… she also thought of herself. Back when she was in the cave, her blood could activate the mechanism. She was also special, with unique bloodlines. Could it be that she was related to the Phoenix Clan too
A string of questions lingered in Qin Luoyan's mind, unanswered, causing a dull ache at her temples. It seemed that after all this was over, she would have to verify the doubts plaguing her own body.
If these people brought the owner of the apothecary here to find a cure for Yì Shēng, then Qin Luòyān would breathe a sigh of relief. At least that way, Yì Shēng would have a chance at being saved.
In the courtyard, two young women wiped the bloodstains clean with water. The strange smell disappeared, and the insects gradually dispersed.
The masked man finally nodded, acknowledging the two women's recognition of Yixing's bloodline. After giving a few instructions to his attendants, he addressed the guard: "Take us to see the owner of that strange apothecary."
The guard seemed very afraid of the masked man and quickly scurried ahead to lead the way.
The masked man in black, accompanied by several others, followed after. Only one attendant remained behind. The attendant approached the two women and beckoned them over, "Come here, I'll tell you the plan to rescue you."
Two women upon hearing this, immediately revealed expressions of delight and rushed forward. However, before their smiles could fully blossom, the attendant drew his sword in a flash and cut across both of their throats.
Fresh blood splattered everywhere, both young women died not knowing how the plan to save them turned into their demise.
"I'm sorry, but the whereabouts of the young prince cannot be divulged. Only the dead can keep secrets." The attendant sighed at the two women's corpses, sheathed his sword, and then turned to leave.
After they left, the coachman led Yin Qi and Qin Luoyan down from the rooftop. They were also about to follow the others to the east wing, but Qin Luoyan quietly picked up the bottle of peony flower pollen that had fallen to the ground while Yin Qi and the coachman were turning around.
"What are you doing" Yin Qi turned his head inadvertently and happened to see Qin Luoyan bending over as she got up.
Qin Luoyan's face remained calm and composed, her voice as light as a feather. "I merely saw that the two of them were pitiful, so I closed their eyes for them." As she spoke, she truly reached out and closed their eyelids.
Yin Qi responded with a sound, and when Qin Luo Yan walked over, the three of them went to the east wing.
In the east wing, the three guards of Ming were too tense to even dare to nap. When they saw the masked man enter the room, they all became excited like they had been injected with chicken blood, rushing to the masked man's side and bowing, "Greetings... "
"Alright, let's skip the ceremony. Where is the person" the masked man asked coldly.
"The person is locked inside the house. We'll bring him out immediately." One guard quickly winked at a few people around him, and several of them swiftly dragged a middle-aged man bound with ropes from the side room.
Having subdued the middle-aged man on the ground, the guard boasted, "This is the person you asked us to watch over. He's doing well, not even a hair out of place."
The masked man winked at his attendant, who knowingly stepped forward and removed the rag stuffed in the apothecary's mouth.
"Where is the miraculous medicine that can cure demonic fire possession We only want that medicine, and we'll let you leave safely once you hand it over." The masked man said.
The proprietor of the apothecary looked at the few people around him, his gaze falling on the child being carried by the man with the bushy beard behind them. He frowned and said, "Is it for this child that you've come"
"This is none of your concern." The masked man let out a cold snort, his voice turning even colder. "Hand over that strange medicine of yours quickly, or you'll suffer the consequences."
The owner of the apothecary was bound tightly, with no room for negotiation. In normal times, he wouldn't bat an eyelid even if asked for a hundred kinds of rare medicine. After all, his apothecary had nothing but an abundance of herbs. But facing death, what were herbs worth
However, he only had one daughter. From childhood to adulthood, because his wife died early, he only had this one daughter, so she was always spoiled and pampered. Now that his daughter was so eager for this miraculous medicine, he hesitated. He had never seen her so nervous before. That is to say, this miraculous medicine was very important to her now.
And Li Huan was also training martial arts. Because of that person, she wanted to become stronger and always tried all sorts of strange things just to improve her martial arts as quickly as possible so she could be worthy of him. Although he felt sorry for her as a father, he couldn't resist her. He could only watch helplessly as she fell deeper into this relationship that had no hope of a happy ending.
This time, Lihuan's eagerness was so alarming. In the worst-case scenario, she might have fallen into demonic possession herself. The owner of the Qiyuan Pharmacy was very afraid. If it turned out as he expected, if Lihuan went mad with power, would handing over this magical medicine not condemn her
Every parent's greatest worry is their children's health. Even if their child is only one in a million to get hurt, they wouldn't dare risk her life.
"Well Seems like you won't cry until you see the coffin" The masked man saw that the owner of Qiyuan Pharmacy didn't react, and a murderous intent immediately flared in his eyes.
The apothecary owner looked at them, his voice pleading. “Could you please let me see my daughter before I hand over this rare medicine I promise, unless my daughter needs the herbs to save her own life, I will give them to you.”
The masked man let out a scornful laugh. “You think you have the qualifications to bargain with me What if it was your daughter who needed this herb to survive, would you still refuse to give it up”
