s within us."Miss" The old man's eyes were clear, for a moment they seemed to flash, "Where did she go"The sycamore trembled and slowly raised its hand, pointing towards the doorway. But outside, the...The owner of the pharmacy suddenly laughed, a middle-aged man laughing heartily and freely, "Yes, if this medicine is used to save my wife's life, then I would never give it to you, even if...it cost me my own life."
Hidden in the shadows, Lihuan's eyes welled up with tears upon hearing the apothecary's words. She knew her father had always loved her dearly, but she never imagined he would go to such lengths for her.
Yin Qi and Qin Luoyan, along with another person, arrived at the courtyard. With the help of a coachman, the three jumped onto the roof of a nearby building and looked down at everything happening in the courtyard below.
Hearing this, Qin Luoyan also furrowed her brows, the worry on her face evident. She was a bit nervous. If the owner of that strange apothecary really preferred death over handing over those herbs, then Yisheng would be hopeless, wouldn't he
All eyes were on the masked man, as if his attitude would determine the course of events.
As soon as the masked man heard what the owner of the pharmacy said, he laughed even more contemptuously. He took a step forward, pulled out a dagger from his waist, and before the owner of the pharmacy could react, the dagger was already plunged into the owner’s thigh. “In my life, I hate it most when people threaten me! If you can save that child, that's best. If not, I'll make sure every single person in your pharmacy, hundreds of them, will be buried with you.”
“You, you!” The owner of the apothecary never expected this masked man to be so forceful and completely unreasonable. What surprised him even more was that although this masked man was doing his best to save the young boy, it wasn't like the young boy was indispensable to him. The masked man’s relationship with the young boy left him increasingly puzzled, and for a moment, he didn't know what to do.
While the apothecary owner was still hesitating, the masked man drew his dagger again and plunged it into his other leg. "You can take your time to think," he said, "for every second you spend pondering, I'll strike you once more. Let's see how many blows your body can withstand. I haven't got time to waste with you here."
“I, I… want to see my daughter!” The owner of the apothecary was stabbed twice, but he still gritted his teeth and refused to let go. His legs were bleeding, staining the muddy ground almost red, filling the air with a thick metallic scent.
The masked man let out a cold snort and plunged his sword into the proprietor of the apothecary's right arm once again. The apothecary cried out in pain, but still refused to yield. The two remained locked in a stalemate; the masked man showed no mercy, while the apothecary was just as stubborn, refusing to compromise in any way.
But in a moment, the owner of the pharmacy was stabbed dozens of times. If not for that masked man intentionally avoiding his vital points, he would have already gone to meet the King of Hell. Even so, with his whole body bleeding, if his wounds weren't treated, he would truly be in danger of death.
As the owner of Qiyuan Pharmacy was on his last breath, Qin Luoyan in the distance, Lihuan in the shadows, and even the bearded man with Yingsheng on his back couldn't help but feel tense.
Qin Luoyan had several times wanted to rush out, but she forced herself to calm down and stop. Even if she could prevent the masked man from pressuring the owner of the Qiyuan Pharmacy, could she make the owner willingly hand over the medicinal materials She couldn't, so she needed help.
She was capable, but the man with a bushy beard couldn't help himself. He carefully placed the pale-faced Yisheng aside and walked toward the owner of the peculiar medicine shop.
Just as the masked man raised his dagger to stab the apothecary owner again, the bearded man grabbed the masked man's wrist. "That's enough, he'll be dead for real if you keep going."
He had handed over the things, what could I do You saw it too, I've already done my best. If the results aren't satisfactory, it's not something I can control." The masked man seemed to be sneering, though with his face covered, it was hard to tell for sure.
The bushy beard was not afraid of the masked man at all, "Doesn't he just want to see her daughter Let her see him then."
"What do you mean We're short on time, we don't have time to go looking for his daughter!" The masked man flung the bearded man's hand away.
“Why bother looking for her Maybe she’s right here.” The man with the bushy beard scanned the shadows in the yard with cold eyes, then looked up at the roofs in the distance. He gathered his inner energy and shouted loudly, “Come out, all of you! Do I have to invite you”
As expected, with his long beard's martial arts prowess, he had already known about the existence of Li Huan and Yin Qi and others.
Actually, Qin Luo'yan had already guessed the identity of the man with a beard. With such good martial arts skills and such a strange temper, and appearing together with Yingsheng, he was actually Jinmu's senior brother, wasn't he She didn't expect that this man with a beard would be so good to Yingsheng, she couldn't help but feel a warmth towards Yingsheng.
Li Huan had already burst into tears. Now that her secret was exposed, she stumbled out and scrambled to her father's side. Trembling, she reached into her bosom and took out gold wound medicine to staunch his bleeding. She choked out a sob: "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, Father, I should have come out sooner. I'm sorry, Father, I hesitated, I hesitated..."
Yes, she hesitated. She wanted to stand up and save her father, but she was also afraid that her father would hand over the medicine. People always say that girls are extroverted, but for this man, she actually hesitated when her own father was in mortal danger. She was a shameless person. How could such a shameless person be treated so well by her father
Self-blame and pain welled up in her as she embraced her father, tears streaming down her face, almost forgetting the danger that surrounded them.
It was when the coachman brought Yinchí and Qin Luòyān into the courtyard that Wúshēng, who had been leaning against the wall this whole time because he was too weak to speak, suddenly burst into tears. He choked out a single word, "Sister…"
A single "sister," pulled Qin Luo'yan's thoughts back to the first time she saw Yìngsēng. Back then, he was just as disheveled and as frugal with his words.
She responded with a choked voice, her throat tightening. She rushed to Yixing's face in three steps, pulling him into her arms with tenderness. "It's alright, it's alright, Yixing don't be afraid, elder sister is here, I will definitely save you, I will."
"Well," Yisheng strained a smile, as if using great effort. He gasped a few breaths before speaking again, "Sister, I seem to be like you."
After uttering those words, Yisheng was drenched in sweat. His extreme weakness and pallid complexion made him look like a dying man, someone who might close his eyes forever at any moment, never to open them again.
