Chu Tianxiao and the prefect were in the yamen to discuss important matters.

No one expected that something like this would suddenly appear.

Without the head of the matter, Chu Sheng can only come forward to deal with it.

He dropped the bowls and chopsticks, pushed open the small round chair, stood up, and quickly stepped over the servant who fell to the ground in panic.

Chu Sheng used his strength on his feet, walked through the corridor in a few steps, and ran towards the gate.

Outside the gate of the Chu Mansion, there was a one-armed young man leaning against the cylinder. His face was covered with dry black blood, and his body was covered with traces of being cut by branches. One cuff was empty, and he was holding a broken Pu Dao in the other hand. His eyes were closed and his mouth was slightly opened. If it weren't for the slight ups and downs on his chest, others would have thought he was dead.

It took only a few minutes to pass from the servants to the lobby inside the mansion. When Chu Sheng learned the news, he ran out and crossed many building walls. After only a few breaths, he arrived outside the mansion.

Seeing the injured person lying on the edge of the cylinder, Chu Sheng, with his understanding of the meridians and acupoints of the human body in the Huichun exercises, first supported the stranger's back with one hand, then used force to seal the important acupoints of several major meridians around him, and took out a pill to replenish blood and refresh his spirit from his waist.

Chu Sheng made full preparations for his previous experience. Once he encountered an enemy of equal strength, he was in a stalemate again. At that time, he was fighting for endurance, and these great tonics could work well. Now Chu Sheng himself hasn't used it first, and the one lying on the ground has used it first. Not to mention the fate of heaven, he can only say that this young man is lucky.

Chu Sheng spread his mouth open, stuffed it into the pill, closed his jaw, and used clever force to send the medicine to him from his throat into his belly.

When Chu Sheng finished all this, the subordinates rushed over.

"You guys, find a door panel, put it on it for him, and carry it to the south wing room in the backyard." Chu Sheng pointed to several strong servants. "By the way, get some water for him and wipe his face. Remember not to touch the wound. You also went to Baicao Pavilion in the north of the city and invited Doctor Wang to me. He said that someone in the Chu family suffered a broken arm injury from a sword and asked him to prepare the corresponding medicine.

Also, this is silver, remember to bring it with you.”

"Okay, young master, I'll go and invite Doctor Wang now." A thin and dark servant took the silver liang, turned his head and ran for a while, then disappeared at the end of the street corner.

"Don't be stunned. Call some people and wipe the blood on the ground, let the kitchen boil some blood-replenishing items and bring them to the backyard."

After Chu Sheng gave these instructions, he stood up and looked at the injured man on the ground. His breath gradually stabilized. He turned around and walked towards the yamen.

Since this person's life has been saved, he must also go to the yamen and ask his father about the origin of this important guest.

.............

In the Qingfeng City Defense Army Camp.

In the large round tent, the vermilion table faced the sand table, and the ground was covered with carpets made of animal skins. Candlelight shone on the bodies of several people and was printed behind the tent.

Around the large tent, there were more than a dozen wooden sticks as thick as arms, and were pulled with straw ropes soaked in grease.

There are some delicious food in front of the table in the tent.

The general of the city defense sat cross-legged at the top desk with a smile on his face. Behind him was a dry tiger skin, and a hideous tiger head seemed to be roaring.

There are table tables on both sides, and there are some wine and food on the table, with a total of four tables, aligned in pairs.

They are Chu Tianxiao, the head of the Chu family, Wang Daocheng, the head of the Wang family, Xu Jiaquan, the head of the Xu family, and Ge Xiaoyi, the head of the Ge family.

These four masters can already be said to own most of the industries in Qingfeng City.

Chu Tianxiao is one of them.

He was wearing a carefully sewn fur coat, a thin coat, a large felt hat, and a wine glass made of jasper in his hand, lowering his head to think about something.

Except for the general, several other heads of the family bowed their heads and thought, not knowing what they were thinking.

Wang Daocheng of the Wang family was uneasy because of his little girl's ghost hitting a ghost, but because of this incident, he recruited a large number of experts from the world to come to protect the house. It can be said that Mr. Wang is now the one with the largest number of warriors among them.

After waiting for a long time, no one spoke. Mr. Wang put down the cup in his hand and spoke first.

"General Cheng, you said you wanted us to inquire about the disappeared caravans. We also inquire about it, but it was useless. We sent people to search along the way, but it was not found either.

Now you ask us to draw more people and go to several nearby villages to inquire, but we don’t have so many people.”

Old Master Chu glanced at the person above, lowered his head and continued to remain silent.

Cheng Jiangjun also curled his smile at this time, with a sad look on his face, and he sighed.

"I don't know why. I'm just following the orders from above.

Besides, I know that finding this way is not a solution. After all, there are so many living people who can't be seen, and there must be some unknown secrets among them.

The above didn't tell us it, but just asked us to continue looking for it.

But this is Qingfeng City, the land under the rule of Qi State, and it is also the place where you four are settled. You can't listen if you don't listen!"

Chu Tianxiao and the other three still lowered their heads and looked at the wine in the glass.

Wang Daocheng was still not silent, but stood up and continued.

"Since the caravans are not found for the time being, can we call back the couples going out?

After inquiring about the news, our family continued to send people to inquire for you. And when you look at this situation, dozens of people disappeared suddenly without leaving any trace. No matter how you look at it, it may be a weird thing.

Since you have no choice, I have invited a master to treat my little girl before. You can ask for help investigate one or two."

"That's fine. If this chivalrous man has any requirements, we will try our best to meet them." General Cheng took the lead in setting an example.

"I am willing to contribute funds to reward the hero."

"Yes, so do I!"

"So too!"

Chu Tianxiao voted one by one with the remaining two of them.

"Since that's the case, then I'll ask Mr. Wang to have a good chat with this expert and see how to arrange it."

General Cheng came seriously.

"Okay, I'll go back and contact me now to see if the master is still there."

Mr. Wang waved his hand, lifted up the tent, sat on the carriage that had been prepared outside, and left far away.

Chu Tianxiao looked at this scene and felt heavy for some reason, as if a stone was blocked.

................

The prefect's office.

Chu Sheng asked the yamen runners at the door, and it turned out that his father was not here, but went to the city defense army to discuss matters. It seemed that this trip was in vain.

He looked up at the plaque above his head, turned around and left slowly.
