Lord of Earth Fiend

Chapter 74

Uncle, it is Qiu Bugui.

Chen Jin hurriedly asked, "What's wrong with my uncle?"

"Unexpectedly, the uncle led the army to suppress the bandits. He was caught in an ambush, was seriously injured, and fell into a coma. Fortunately, his subordinates fought desperately with him and rescued him..."

Xiaocui went into the city in a carriage, and Chen Jin and Gu Leyou got into the carriage.

On the way, after learning about the situation, Chen Jin couldn't help clenching his fists.

This time to suppress the bandits, soldiers sent troops to the black village. At that time, Chen Jin wanted to go with the army, but Qiu Bugui sternly refused, saying that Chen Jin did not have the position and identity to join the army.

Qiu Bugui also said that Heishanzhai is powerful, not just ordinary bandits, and might be dangerous.

Unexpectedly, the word became a truth.

They were sent back to Qiujiazhuang at noon yesterday, and Qiu Bujuan hurried back after hearing the news.

According to Xiaocui, Qiu Bugui's situation is quite critical.

"I hope uncle can hold on..."

Chen Jin was so anxious that he wished he had wings and flew home immediately.

Finally returning to the village, he jumped out of the carriage and hurried to his uncle's house.

The second uncle Qiu Bulai, the younger aunt Qiu Bujuan and others all guarded outside the room.

Chen Jin asked eagerly, "How is uncle?"

Qiu Buyan's eyes were already red: "Xiao Lang, if you don't come back, you won't be able to see your uncle for the last time."

Chen Jin's heart sank.

The door opened, and a white-haired old man came out with a medicine box on his back.

Qiu Bulai went up and asked, "Miraculous doctor Chu, can my elder brother be saved?"

Doctor Na Chu shook his head: "I'm sorry, I tried my best, but Uncle Qiu was hit by six arrows, and three of them hit his vitals. This old man is really helpless."

Qiu Bulai said unwillingly: "There is no medicine left?"

"This kind of situation cannot be cured by ordinary medicine, unless..."

"Unless what?"

Hearing that there was still a glimmer of hope, Qiu Bulai immediately asked: "No matter what price I pay, I, the Qiu family, are willing to pay it."

Doctor Chu pondered and said: "It is said that there is a magic medicine in Li Village, called 'Ghost Animals Returning Yang Pill', which can life and death human flesh and bones. If there is this medicine, give it to Uncle Qiu, maybe a miracle will happen."

When Qiu Bulai heard this, the hope that had just been ignited in his heart was extinguished again.He knew Li Village, and he had heard of the name of Ghost Animal Huanyang Pill, but the ghost cultivators of Li Village had always been treacherous and mysterious, and it was extremely difficult to deal with them. How could they obtain the magic medicine?

Qiu Bujuan immediately said: "I'm going to Li Village right now, they won't give me medicine, so I'll kill them in."

Qiu Bulai quickly stopped her: "If you don't marry, don't be impulsive. Don't say whether the other party is willing to take medicine. It will take a whole day to go back and forth. Big Brother may not be able to wait for that time."

Qiu Bujuan stomped her foot: "Then you can't just sit here and watch your elder brother wait to die."

Chen Jin suddenly asked: "Miraculous Doctor Chu, may I ask how to take the Ghost Animal Huanyang Pill?"

Miracle doctor Chu was stunned for a moment, and replied: "It can be cut in half, and one half is applied externally, and the other half is soaked in warm water, and taken internally."

"Thank you, Miracle Doctor Chu, for your help with the medicine."

"Uh, what kind of medicine?"

Chen Jin replied: "Of course it's the ghost animal returning Yang Dan."

Everyone was shocked now, Qiu Buzhu subconsciously asked: "You have?"

Chen Jin didn't talk nonsense, and immediately took out the medicine box: "Here is one, I just got it yesterday."

"You went to Li Village? No, why do you have this medicine? Is it true?"

Qiu Bujuan was full of doubts and asked questions incessantly.

Chen Jin said in a deep voice, "Now is not the time to discuss this."

Qiu Bulai hurriedly said, "Yes, quickly give elder brother medicine."

Several people surrounded Miracle Doctor Chu and entered the room to help get the medicine.

Seeing Qiu Bugui lying unconscious on the bed with a face as golden as paper, Chen Jin couldn't help but feel his heart ache. He was extremely grateful to this majestic uncle and never wanted anything to happen to him.

I hope that the ghost and animal return to Yang Dan will be useful.

Half an hour later, after taking the medicine, Doctor Chu said, "The next step is to see if Uncle Qiu can survive tonight. As long as tonight passes, a life can be saved."

Qiu Bulai clasped his fists and said, "Thank you, Miracle Doctor Chu, I will invite you to stay in the village tonight and help take care of it... By the way, please keep the matter of my elder brother taking the Huanyang Pill a secret and don't tell it."

Doctor Chu was startled, and then thought of something: "No problem, I will keep this matter to myself."

Qiu Bulai ordered his servants to send Miracle Doctor Chu to the guest room to rest. When he turned around, he saw Qiu Buzhuan pestering Chen Jin to ask questions, so he hurriedly said:

"If you don't marry, don't keep asking, go and see the old man."

Hearing this, even though Qiu Bujuan didn't get a satisfactory answer from Chen Jin, she had no choice but to leave.

Chen Jin asked anxiously, "What's the matter with Grandpa?"

Qiu Bulai sighed: "He saw your uncle was covered in blood, he was so out of breath that he fainted, but there was no serious problem, it's just that he became more confused because of this stimulation."

"I'll go see him."

"it is good."

Chen Jin came to grandpa's side, but saw Qiu Bujuan guarding the door: "Shhh, your grandpa just fell asleep, don't bother me."

The elderly are very light sleepers and just need a good rest.

Chen Jin had no choice but to give up, turned out again, and returned to his uncle's house.

Qiu Bulai stayed here, asked him to sit down, looked him up and down, looked very surprised, and finally couldn't help asking: "Xiao Lang, what's going on?"

"Second Uncle, you should know that I learn martial arts and join the Patrol Division."

"know."

Chen Jin said again: "I also made some friends, they are Taoist priests from Wuling..."

Speaking of which, he called Gu Leyou over and gave an introduction.

This time Gu Leyou came to Laoqiuzhuang, mainly to see if there was any help.He was a sensible person, and stayed by the side all the time, waiting for Chen Jin's orders.

Chen Jin went on to briefly talk about the rescue of Mr. Tan's family, omitting a lot of the fighting process, and only said the result: "Senior Li said he owed my teacher's favor, so he gave me a ghost beast to return Yang Dan. , just for uncle to use."

After listening to it, Qiu Bulai still had many questions, but he didn't get entangled in finding out the root cause. He couldn't help sighing: "Xiao Lang, this time is really thanks to you."

Chen Jin asked again: "Second Uncle, I think this is too coincidental, is there something else wrong?"

Qiu Bulai waved his hand: "Your uncle was seriously injured in the attack, there can be no connection with the medicine donated by Li Village, it can only be said that his life should not be lost."

Chen Jin heard some mysteries: "Second Uncle means that there may be something strange about Uncle's attack?"

Qiu Bulai's face was serious: "I am aware of your uncle's ability. Although he is a martial artist, he acts prudently and knows how to advance and retreat. This time leading the troops to suppress the bandits, how could he advance rashly and fall into an ambush?"

Chen Jin asked, "What do his followers say?"

Qiu Bulai sighed: "Several of them were killed, including Qiu Er. The others don't know much about it, so they can't ask what happened."

Qiu Er was the one who was in charge of driving when Chen Jin was released from prison.

Chen Jin sighed, "Then we can only know the truth when uncle wakes up."

Qiu Bulai nodded: "Xiao Lang, there is one more thing I need to let you know, so I can prepare for it."

"Second uncle, please tell me."

"It's only been one night since your uncle was sent back to the village. Since this morning, there have been many strange faces outside the village."

Chen Jin asked vigilantly, "Are they here after Uncle?"

Qiu Bulai smiled wryly: "It's more likely that they came for our Qiu family."

"The enemy of the family?"

Qiu Bulai let out a sigh of relief: "Xiao Lang, you have reached adulthood, and now you have learned martial arts skills, there are some things, it's time to tell you."

Chen Jin said seriously: "Second Uncle, please speak clearly."

"The Qiu family originated in Yunzhou. In its heyday, there were tens of thousands of people. It was only later that they encountered a great enemy and were almost exterminated. The few remaining clans went into exile, hiding their names and avoiding disasters. Among them, we One. More than ten years ago, your grandfather led us to travel long distances and moved to Lingnan, where we settled down, and this is how Laoqiuzhuang came into existence."

Regarding this situation, Chen Jin had already guessed before, and asked, "Who is the enemy?"

Qiu Bulai replied: "I don't know, it's all a grudge from a hundred years ago. Your grandfather may know about it, but he has always kept it secret. He didn't tell us. He just let us live a good life."

Chen Jin asked again: "What about now?"

Qiu Bulai said: "I'm not sure, I'm just making a conjecture. You've seen the situation in the village, old and injured, there is nothing to rely on, you must plan ahead and prepare for the battle. "

Chen Jin asked, "Second Uncle, are you a warrior?"

Qiu Buzi sneered: "Look at my figure, does it look like I practice martial arts? I have no talent, but a smooth businessman. If you ask me to settle accounts and do business, I will definitely be a good hand. If you fight against the enemy, it is better to let me Come on, baby."

Chen Jin: "..."

I thought that the second uncle would be a hidden master, master master, master master master, but the reality is cruel, there is no such plot.

Qiu Bulai said again: "Your little aunt is a good fighter, but she is alone and cannot support herself. So, Xiao Lang, tell me honestly, how is your martial arts practice?"

Chen Jin replied honestly: "I think I have practiced well."

"You feel?"

Qiu Bulai stared at him, then smiled wryly to himself: I was so ill that I went to the doctor in such a hurry, I actually wanted to pin my hope on this only nephew.

Don't you know what Chen Jin has been like for so many years?

He is a gentle scholar, he is quite talented in reading, and he can pass the exam... But since he was imprisoned, his temperament has changed, and he began to want to learn martial arts and keep fit.

I am indeed learning. I heard that the elder brother said that the talent is not bad, but what can I do?
In just a year and a half, no matter how good the talent is, it is impossible to go to heaven.

Now what Chen Jin said about "practicing pretty well" probably means that he feels good about himself and is unreliable.

After thinking for a while, Qiu Bulai said, "Xiao Lang, didn't you say that you have met a few practitioners? Besides Daoist Gu, are there other people? If there are, go and invite them to live in the village. It can also add momentum.”

Chen Jindao: "There is indeed another one, Lai Zhishu of Mingchuan Temple."

Qiu Bulai had heard of Lai Zhishu's name before, so he slapped his thigh: "Hurry up and ask Host Lai to come. The remuneration is negotiable, and I will give it."

Chen Jin: "..."

According to the second uncle, Lai Zhishu's status is obviously much higher than that of Gu Leyou, there is no way, this is the impression point, after all, Lai Zhishu's age and qualifications are there.In truth, he is of the same generation as Taoist Izumo.And Gu Leyou is just a junior who has to take over under special circumstances. When Butler Huang came directly to bully him, he also saw this.

If he had known this earlier, he should have left Lai Zhishu yesterday.Now to shake people, the only way is for Gu Leyou to send Xiaoba to find him.

Gu Leyou said: "Lao Lai didn't go back to Wuling Taoist Temple, so he should still be in the city. I know where he lives, and Xiao Ba also knows."

Chen Jin said: "It's just right."

Qiu Bulai still didn't think it was safe, so he thought about it again: the eldest brother has a good relationship with Yang Rong, the governor of the patrolling department, and before Chen Jin was able to go in to serve as the secretary office of the Linpai, it was because of this relationship.Now that the eldest brother has an accident and Laoqiuzhuang is facing a crisis, why not ask Yang Rong to come forward?There are people from the patrol department sitting in the town, which will definitely deter all the young people.

He hurriedly repaired a book, and then gave it to a capable health servant, who asked him to ride a fast horse into the city to find Yang Rong.

In fact, Qiu Bulai is good at dancing and has a lot of contacts, such as the captain Shouzheng who guards the city gate.However, these contacts are not reliable, and it is different to eat meat and drink for business, and really count on the other party to save the day.

Since ancient times, adding icing on the cake is one thing, and sending charcoal in the snow is another.

Chen Jin didn't care what his second uncle did, after discussing with Gu Leyou, he asked him to go out and look around to see what was going on.

As for Chen Jin himself, he had to stay in the village, guarding his grandfather and uncle.

At dusk, Gu Leyou came back and said that there was indeed some situation outside the village, and many practitioners and warriors were haunted.But he didn't dare to scare the snake, and it was not easy to go forward to inquire;
Then Xiao Bafei came back, and Lai Zhishu came at the same time.

Seeing him, Qiu Bulai warmly went out to greet him.

At the beginning, Lai Zhishu didn't understand the situation, but after hearing what Chen Jinfen said, he hesitated for a moment, and immediately patted his chest and said, "Brother Chen has something to do, Brother Yu is obliged to do so, just do what you order."

Seeing this, Qiu Bulai felt a little strange. Looking at the relationship between the two, it seemed that Lai Zhishu wanted to curry favor with Chen Jin.

But before he had time to think about it, the health servant who delivered the letter brought back bad news, and the governor Yang Rong was not in the patrol department at all, but went out on business.

Qiu Bulai could only say nothing about this, he wasn't sure if the other party really went out to do some errands, or if he got wind of it beforehand and hid.

But no matter what it is, it has become an established fact and cannot be changed.

"I just hope, I'm superstitious, I'm too nervous..."

He tidied up his mood, ordered to go down, and made a rich dinner to entertain Lai Zhishu and Gu Leyou, as well as Miracle Doctor Chu and others.

After dinner, night fell, the moon was dark and the wind was high tonight, and the whining wind carried a killing intent.

The atmosphere in the old hill village was rather tense, and the torches and lanterns were lit up, making it brightly illuminated.

Under Qiu Bulai's order, Laoqiu, Qiu Bao'er and other old and weak women and children were all transferred to Qiu Bugui's compound. The people gathered together and formed a circle for defense and protection.

Grandpa Laoqiu was in a daze. When he saw Chen Jin, he opened his mouth and said, "My good nephew, are you back from school? You must study hard. Only after you finish your studies will you be successful."

Hearing this, Chen Jin burst into tears.

Qiu Bao'er had a serious face, and put his hands behind his back: "After five years of learning martial arts, I finally have a place to use them. Cousin, don't panic, I will protect you."

Chen Jin: "..."

I thought to myself that the legendary hidden master was actually this fat cousin?
When it was Haishi, there was finally good news: Qiu Bugui woke up!
　Thanks to the book friend "20181123201221513" for the reward, one of the few consolations!Thanks
