When the Dragon King of the Jinchang River entered the city, it was through the South Gate. Now, being fiercely pursued by Zhang Guifang, and not familiar with the terrain, he ran and ended up at the East Gate.
At this time, there were quite a number of civilians entering the city through the East Gate, among which were a few horse-drawn carriages.
"Whoever obstructs me will die! Move aside! Get out of the way for the king!"
The Dragon King of the Jinchang River was called down by Zhang Guifang twice, struck with a pearl by Feng Lin, and with his foot broken, he felt pain all over his body.
Facing the blockage of the road, he was in a great hurry.
Unleashing dragon aura would only worsen the congestion on the road, and Zeng Guifang, who was in pursuit from behind, seemed to be catching up.
As he prepared to take the risk of riding on the clouds again, a very handsome horse, pulling a carriage behind it, moved sideways, clearing a narrow path for him.
"Thank you! I owe you one today! There will be thick rewards in the future!" He heard a woman's voice in the carriage and didn't have time to look closely, leaving behind a sentence before charging out of the city with blood all over his body.
As he left the Qiaojia City, the Shang Dynasty's aura suppression completely disappeared, and he unleashed his full power, soaring into the sky.
In the final moment, he looked back one last time at the majestic Qiaojia City.
The thought crossed his mind that he was going to snicker, and he would definitely find the true owner of the jade tablet for the sake of Xiqi and the Shang Dynasty. Then, let's see if they dare to treat me with such contempt again!
The most pressing matter is to return to the Jinchang River. He now needs to practice how to walk using two crutches...
He dared not fly over Chao Ge City, so he had to ride the clouds, taking a detour from the East Gate to the South Gate, then to the West Gate, before finally heading west back to the Jinchang River.
"Close the city gate! Close the gate!"
"Stop him, do not let the offender of the imperial court go!"
"Come with me, we must catch this thief today!"
Zeng Guifang and Feng Lin, along with over one hundred soldiers, were chasing in a swarm.
Until these people had all left, Deng Chan Yu, who was playing cards with Daji and Ping'er in the carriage, only then pulled back the curtain, gazed into the distance for a moment, her expression showing something inexplicable.
She patted her chest guiltily, was that really the Dragon King of the Jinchang River? I was scared to death, and I thought he was coming to settle accounts with me. Why did he run though? I didn't even run, what made him run?
Deng Chan Yu has always felt that the incident at the Jinchang River Dragon Palace was a bit reckless. If she were to do it again, besides the Cui Guang Two-Yi Lamp, she would never touch the dragon palace. She doesn't need that stuff.
Deep down, there is a sense of guilt.
At first sight of the Dragon King of the Jinchang River, Deng Chan Yu felt unnerved, but then she saw a group of numerous Yin Dynasty generals, and she refrained from making a move. Instead, she ordered Biaozi to clear the way and give the Dragon King of the Jinchang River a chance at life, slightly making up for her past guilt.
Daji, wearing the black veil like Mu Wanqing to cover her face, followed her gaze: "Who is that? Is he your friend?"
"Not... not very familiar... Let's go. Let's go to the Huang mansion first. I'll introduce Biao Shu to you, and let Biao Shu arrange a place for us to stay. We'll probably have to stay in Chao Ge for some time from now on."
The next day.
Zeng Guifang reported that he had severely injured the fugitive and then fallen into the river.
Fei Zhong brought up the old account of the Dragon King of the Jinchang River's "help" to Xiqi in the past. When King Zhou saw it, he laughed, "Ah, this fellow really has a grudge against me; he's definitely an assassin."
Rewarding Fei Zhong and Zhang Guifang heavily for presenting the jade tablet, and the matter of the jade tablet was brushed aside lightly.
...
Deng Chan Yu and Daji directly stayed at Huang Feihu's palace.
Daji's cultivation scripture is "Six Paths Rebirth Sutra. Human World Chapter". This cultivation method uses one's own grief, sorrow, and pain as fuel. The more negative emotions one has, the faster their progress will be.
The unfortunate Daji was very suitable for this cultivation method, burning away her self-pity and self-blame, and her personality also became more cheerful.
Daji has a strong domestic nature and doesn't like socializing. She usually spends her time practicing this scripture.
Deng Chan Yu was still looking into the matter of Jiang Ziya, occasionally going to teahouses and chatting with passersby from various directions to adjust the medicinal effects of the cooling tea.
The incidents of the unconscious Sword and Zhu Tianlin deeply moved her. Entire villages of civilians were massacred, and it is truly difficult for ordinary people to survive in these times.
Letting Deng Chan Yu embody a Bodhisattva who saves suffering, she cannot do it, but she feels that she can do something within her means.
Zhu Tianlin's death is the result of karma in the underworld, but if you look closely, you can still trace the clues of the demon race to Daji's side.
Meng Po secretly told her that Daji's calamity has not been completely dispelled. What others consider a fortunate event could, in Daji's case, be the worst possible outcome, commonly known as "losing one's luck."
As a lifelong good friend, Deng Chan Yu naturally could not stand by and do nothing.
The traditional practice of the Jie School has always been to confront the younger with the older, and if the older is defeated, then confront an even older one.
When dealing with Zhu Tianlin's seniors and elders, one must be on guard.
If she were to switch targets, she could easily ask Xun Zhong to mediate, believing that she has this face. However, the Plague faction of Lu Yue? She truly looks down on it!
There are thirty thousand paths to the Tao. Why do you all have to harm the common people? Do you deserve the title of 'immortal'?
After settling down in Chao Ge, she slightly adjusted her approach to making cooling tea to detoxify and save lives. Jiang Ziya, who was 72 years old when he descended from the mountain and 98 years old when he overthrew Shang and bestowed gods, is calculated to have been fighting for more than twenty years between Yin Dynasty and Xiqi, with countless combatants killed, including a considerable number of immortals. The epidemic would be even more rampant at that time, and she has been researching pharmacology in order to find a few pharmaceutical formulas that are effective against epidemics, inexpensive, and do not cause significant harm to the body.
The formula has been developed, and the next step is to conduct clinical trials.
Her teahouse was a treasure, moved entirely onto the street, an absolute violation of building codes. If there were urban management officers in these days, she would surely be punished for "occupying public space for business activities."
The pharmacy can't occupy the main road anymore.
This matter still has to be found with Biao Shu.
A pharmacy named "Bao Zhi Lin" officially opened for business about 12 days later.
The store of the pharmacy is from the Huang family, and the shopkeeper is named "Huang Feihong." Is this "Huang Feihong" related to Huang Feihu and Huang Feibiao? How deeply are they related? No explanation needed; those who understand know.
Deng Chan Yu has learned a lot from the Huangdi series of books, and she has a comprehensive understanding of the medicinal materials in this era.
Daji has inherited part of Meng Po's teachings and, knowing her thoughts, also started to study. She has developed a soup that can put people to sleep. This is not the kind of incantation that Zhu Tianlin used, but rather something similar to the future Han Dynasty's Ma Bu Scatter.
Opening the door to welcome patients, reality dealt Deng Chan Yu a heavy blow.
In the Yin Dynasty, it is still an age that relies on Si Ming for spiritual solace. Drinking amulet water like Zhang Jiao's is considered heresy here, not because it is backward, but because it is too far ahead!
The term "witch doctor" is a misnomer. "Witch" should come before "doctor," and Deng Chan Yu's herbal medicine is a second-tier treatment method in this era.
The pharmacy had been open for several days, and the passersby did not ask about their treatment methods but instead inquired about the immortal gods they worshipped.
If Deng Chan Yu had no roots, she could follow the trend and say one thing, it wouldn't affect her at all. But now, she can only say Nuwa, and patients shook their heads. Nuwa's healing effect is not good; they don't believe in your medicine.
Just as she was regretting, a patient with both feet amputated, covered in tatters, and tightly holding a black cloth package came to seek medical help.
