    Chen Wenying seemed to feel something and asked with concern: "What's wrong?"

    Luo Yuanqiu did not answer, but took the reins from her hands, drove the horse forward to catch up with Bai Bin, and rode alongside him.  At this time, the wind gradually weakened, and the strange smell drifted in and out. Luo Yuanqiu took a deep breath and finally confirmed that this was not his imagination.

    Bai Bin turned around and saw Luo Yuanqiu looking at him. He was a little surprised and asked, "Miss Luo, what's the matter?"

    Chen Wenying looked Bai Bin up and down critically, and was about to laugh a few words when she glanced at his belt, her expression suddenly turned doubtful. Just when she was about to speak, she felt a warmth covering the back of her hand. She looked down and saw that it was  Luo Yuanqiu held her hand.

    Looking along Luo Yuanqiu's line of sight, Chen Wenying asked in surprise: "Bai Bin, what's wrong with your hand?"

    Bai Bin¡¯s right hand was wrapped in white cloth, obviously injured.  He smiled and said: "It's nothing, it's just that I accidentally hurt my hand when I was fighting with one of my elders. It's also caused by my poor academic skills. I can't blame him."

    He was a little awkward when he spoke, and even Chen Wenying could tell that something was wrong. She asked with rare concern: "Is the injury serious?"

    Bai Bin said: "It's just that you can't touch the water or get cold, but the rest is fine."

    Hearing this, Luo Yuanqiu shook his head and said casually, "Is the person who hurt you okay?"

    Bai Bin's expression froze, his throat felt a little stiff, and he whispered: "Hehe is sick."

    Luo Yuanqiu thought that it was not as simple as being sick, so he said: "If you are sick, you must see a doctor. Don't hide your illness and avoid medical treatment."

    As soon as these words came out, Bai Bin's face suddenly turned white, his mouth was speechless, and he was speechless.

    Luo Yuanqiu must have known what was going on by looking at his expression and behavior, and was just waiting to see if he was willing to tell her.

    The three of them were riding through the busy city. The surroundings were very lively and people were shouting.  Chen Wenying had been detained at home for many days and rarely came out to relax. She looked around and saw everything new, so naturally she missed the conversation between Bai Bin and Luo Yuanqiu.

    After coming out of the busy city, the three of them were blocked by a group of people seeing off their bride, so they had to take a detour.  Passing by an intersection, Chen Wenying took a look and said, "Why does this place look familiar?"

    Luo Yuanqiu took a look and said, "It seems to be the place where we found the body when we first patrolled the night."

    Chen Wenying thought of the corpse and felt a chill running down her spine. She forced a smile and said, "What a coincidence, hahaha"

    She laughed for a while and saw that Luo Yuanqiu and Bai Bin were both looking at the road. She didn't know there was anything worth seeing on the street that could make them look so intently.  Chen Wenying took a few glances, but before she found anything interesting, she heard Bai Bin say: "Miss Luo, have you seen a doctor?"

    Luo Yuanqiu¡¯s lips curved up and he said, ¡°I have a weird habit of treating doctors. I don¡¯t treat common diseases, but only treat difficult and complicated diseases.¡±

    Chen Wenying looked surprised and said: "You can still see a doctor?"

    Luo Yuanqiu's eyes moved slightly and he said softly: "Did you forget that I also saw a doctor for you when I was at your house?"

    Chen Wenying was stunned for a moment, but after thinking about it carefully, it was true. It could indeed be regarded as a cure. Then she nodded and asked Bai Bin: "Why do you suddenly ask about this?"

    Bai Bin looked a little strange and said calmly: "In that case, I would like to ask Miss Luo to go to my sixth uncle's house to check on his illness."

    Luo Yuanqiu responded with a smile, secretly saying that Bai Bin had indeed come forward.  Chen Wenying on the side listened very confused and asked: "What, you want Yuan Qiu to go see a doctor for your sixth uncle? Your sixth uncle is sick, why don't you just call a doctor? What can you do with Yuan Qiu? She is a talisman master, yes.  Do you want her to draw talismans to ward off evil spirits?"

    Luo Yuanqiu reminded: "A talisman master can't draw talismans to ward off evil spirits. If we want to talk about exorcising evil spirits, it would be better to find a talisman master."

    Chen Wenying chuckled and said: "Then forget it, it doesn't matter if the evil is not driven away, just let it stay."

    Bai Bin pondered for a moment, then said to Chen Wenying: "In this case, you go to the Taishi Bureau to report your work first, and take a leave of absence for the two of us. Just say that the matter is urgent, and ask Mr. Dong Guanzheng to forgive me. If he asks,  Just tell the truth, just say that my sixth uncle is seriously ill, and I asked Miss Luo to go take a look at him."

    Chen Wenying looked at the two of them hesitantly with a confused look on her face.  Seeing this, Bai Bin said patiently: "My sixth uncle is very ill, and it is not convenient to see people. The house is in a mess, and you will have nothing to do if you go."

    Chen Wenying thought for a while, nodded reluctantly and said, "Okay, you go ahead. I'll pick Yuan Qiu back later. By the way, where is your sixth uncle's house?"

    Luo Yuanqiu interrupted in time: "No need, it will be the same if Bai Bin takes me back when the time comes."

    &n¡­¡±

    Luo Yuanqiu said lightly: "Without breathing and heartbeat, you are no different from a dead person. Even if you can walk, it is useless." She lifted the white gauze around the woman's neck, and sure enough, there were several more scars, and said: "Think about it,  If he really came back to life, would he be willing to hurt you?"

    The woman touched her neck with trembling hands, tears fell from her eyes, and she cried on her shoulder.  Luo Yuanqiu patted her back and pressed his hand on the back of her neck. The woman's body suddenly softened, and the arms clinging to her slowly slipped away.  Luo Yuanqiu bent his knees to catch her and held her in his arms.  When I lowered my head, I accidentally saw that the woman's face was full of tears. Even though she had fainted, tears were still flowing from the corners of her eyes.

    She unconsciously stretched out her hand to wipe it away, and when the tears touched her fingertips, they were obviously ice, but they seemed to be burning with fire, so she quickly retracted her hand.

    A younger man chased out of the courtyard. His facial features were somewhat similar to Bai Bin's. He took the woman from Luo Yuanqiu without saying a word and asked in a low voice: "What's wrong with my mother?"

    Luo Yuanqiu said: "Give me her hand."

    The man glanced at her and asked doubtfully: "Who are you?"

    Bai Bin said at the right time: "She is also an official of the Taishi Bureau. Don't worry, I specially invited you to see Uncle Liu."

    Regardless of what he said, Luo Yuanqiu stepped forward and took the woman's hand, took out a cinnabar pen, drew a talisman on her palm, and then said: "Send her back to the house, have a good sleep, and she will be fine when she wakes up."  .¡±

    The man hesitated for a while and said, "Thank you." Then he turned to Bai Bin and said, "I will talk to you again after I send my mother into the house and settle her down."

    Bai Bin and Luo Yuanqiu were waiting outside. The courtyard was extremely quiet after the crying stopped. Not long after, the man came out again and said, "Let's go, my father is in the east courtyard now."

    Bai Bin couldn't help but look at Luo Yuanqiu and asked, "How is Uncle Six?"

    The man said: "I don't know either. I have been staying with my mother this morning."

    Luo Yuanqiu asked: "What kind of person was your father in the past?"

    The man didn't know why, but he still replied: "He is a worshiper in Xuanmiao Temple. He has lectured and discussed Taoism in the temple for many years. He especially likes to study alchemy. Apart from that, I have never seen him have any other hobbies."  .¡±

    "Alchemy?" Luo Yuanqiu said, "Has he seen any strange people in recent months?"

    The man thought for a while, then ordered his servants to call someone and said, "I haven't been at home for the past six months, and the housekeeper is taking care of everything in the inner house."

    After a while the housekeeper came, and the man asked: "Have you seen anyone during my absence from home?"

    The housekeeper replied: "As for the young master, I go to the temple to give lectures as usual, otherwise I am refining alchemy at home, and I have never seen any guests come to the house. However, in the past six months, the master has not been at home to look at the alchemy furnace.  I often go out for several days, and when I come back my clothes are all burnt."

    The man was stunned and said: "There is such a thing, how come I don't know about it?"

    The housekeeper said: "I used to be like this all the time, so the people in the house didn't take it seriously, not even my wife."

    The man wanted to ask again, but Luo Yuanqiu interrupted him and said, "Let's go see your father."

    The man took them to the east courtyard. The courtyard was very remote, and most of the tung paint on the door had fallen off. When they opened the door and walked in, the courtyard was in a state of ruin, with no trace of anyone living there.

    "It's right inside." The man took a deep breath, pointed at the dilapidated door and said, "Go in, I don't know what he is like."

    Luo Yuanqiu walked to the door one step ahead of him, opened the door and went in. The dust fell down, and it was so dark inside that he couldn't see anything clearly.  The man took two torches, one each for Bai Bin, and lit them to illuminate the scene in the house.

    A coffin was placed in the hall. The lid of the coffin had been broken open and it fell to the ground. The man's face changed drastically when he saw it, and he said: "How could this happen? He was still in this coffin before!"

    Bai Bin stepped forward and lit up the coffin with a torch, while Luo Yuanqiu squatted down and looked at the coffin lid. As expected, there were messy scratches on the coffin lid.

    Bai Bin picked up a rag and said, "Thisisn't this the clothes I put on for Uncle Six last night?"

    The man was in disbelief: "Where would he be if he wasn't in the coffin?" He looked at the window and said, "He couldn't have run away. I clearly had someone tie him up with chains!"

    Bai Bin pointed into the coffin and said, "Cousin, look, your chains are here and have been opened by Uncle Six."

    The two of them were talking around the wooden coffin, but Luo Yuanqiu stood up thoughtfully and looked down at the ground - because no one had cleaned the house for a long time, a thick layer of dust fell on the ground.  Luo Yuanqiu blew lightly and saw a few vague footprints leading to the window, but then turned back.  She followed the footprints and found that it was too dark in the back room, so she could no longer see the ground clearly.

    She walked to where the footprints disappeared and looked up to see a half-decayed wooden screen standing in the dimness. The curtains were hanging down and the faded tassels were swaying slightly.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com)?, I found that it was too dark in the back room and I could no longer see the ground clearly.
