Everyone in the Liuxiang Tower ran away last night!
Sang Biao barked and told Xiao Jingcheng exactly what the dogs had seen and heard last night.
Xiao Jingcheng's eyes darkened, and his eyebrows furrowed imperceptibly.
He hadn't expected that in just one night, Xiao Yixuan would lead the two from the Ye family and the guards out of Dongli Town in such a hurry that even Xiao Wuchen wasn't informed.
It seemed that what had happened in the capital had also made Xiao Yixuan feel the crisis.
In front of Jiang Mian, Mo Zhizhang and the others, he naturally wouldn't reveal that he could understand dog language.
He half - squatted down and made a sound from his throat that only he and Sang Biao could hear.
[Do you know where they went after leaving Dongli Town?]
Sang Biao barked.
[Da Hei said they went south. It will follow them all the way and send back the news at any time.]
Xiao Jingcheng nodded.
[You've done a good job. I'll ask Zhao Hu to prepare food for you.]
Sang Biao was overjoyed. It stood on its two front paws and bounced a few times, then barked twice around Xiao Jingcheng.
Sang Biao's appearance outside the Huichun Hall attracted the attention of Jiang Mian, Mo Zhizhang and the others.
Jiang Mian let out a soft "Huh" and looked back and forth between Xiao Jingcheng and the excited Sang Biao.
Why did Xiao Jingcheng and this stray mongrel in the town seem to be on such good terms?
She suddenly remembered that when she found Xiao Jingcheng in the Feihu Gambling House that day, this mongrel was also squatting outside.
Moreover, when she and Mo Zhizhang rushed to Jiang Zhiqing's courtyard yesterday, there seemed to be quite a few dogs following behind Xiao Jingcheng.
Mo Zhizhang walked to Ye Wanmian's side and said vaguely, "It seems Brother Gou Dan has other dogs outside. No wonder Da Huang doesn't like him."
Da Huang pricked up its ears, glanced at Mo Zhizhang, then ran towards Xiao Jingcheng. It wagged its tail and circled around Sang Biao twice, then nudged Sang Biao with its snout.
Although Sang Biao disliked its timidity a bit, in front of Xiao Jingcheng, it still touched noses with Da Huang as a greeting.
Mo Zhizhang: "..."
This yellow dog was quite intelligent.
Jiang Mian waved to Sang Biao and said with a smile, "Come here, boy."
The fairy sister was calling it!
Sang Biao's tail wagged so fast it was a blur. It carefully looked at Xiao Jingcheng's expression and, seeing that he didn't stop it, immediately ran towards Jiang Mian.
"Woof, woof!" Sang Biao wagged its tail desperately and wanted to jump on Jiang Mian. But after hearing Xiao Jingcheng's loud cough, it quickly stopped and just lowered its body, flattened its ears back and whined at Jiang Mian flatteringly.
Jiang Mian took out a piece of candy and put it on the ground. Sang Biao grabbed it in one bite and happily ran in circles.
Da Huang chased after it jealously and snapped at it. The two dogs chased each other in the house, barking merrily and dispelling the gloom brought by the incident.
Xiao Jingcheng walked to Jiang Mian's side. She looked at him and said, "Come to think of it, if the dogs in the town hadn't come to the Huichun Hall to inform me yesterday, I wouldn't have known that Mother was in trouble."
"Do you know how this happened?"
There was a hint of probing in her words. She always felt that Xiao Jingcheng had some connection with these dogs in the town, but she didn't know where this intuition came from.
Xiao Jingcheng said calmly, "Isn't it because you've fed the dogs a few times?"
Really?
Jiang Mian had indeed fed the dogs including Sang Biao, but how did these dogs know about Mother's situation and come to inform her?
She remembered that she had never mentioned it to them.
She turned around to count the medicinal materials in the medicine cabinet. As she was counting, a sudden thought flashed through her mind.
Something was wrong! How did he know how many times she had fed the dogs in the town? She had only taken him there once, and at that time, he hadn't fully regained his senses and was still the silly "Gou Dan"!
Could it be that he remembered everything that had happened at that time?
That's right. They had caught fireflies by the river that night and sent a firefly lantern to Mother. That's why he knew where Mother lived and could infer the relationship between her and Mother.
But after he regained his memory, he had never mentioned these things to her and had mysteriously said it was a secret.
Jiang Mian looked back at Xiao Jingcheng. He was leaning against a chair, looking through the medical records she had written.
She wondered what he was up to.
After playing for a while, Sang Biao ran away. Since it wasn't her own dog, Jiang Mian didn't try to keep it. She just watched its departing figure, frowning slightly, lost in thought.
It was raining so heavily outside that pedestrians could hardly move forward, so no one came to the medical clinic to see a doctor. The Huichun Hall seemed extremely deserted.
This rain had interrupted the Huichun Hall's free clinic and tea - giving plan, resulting in a mountain of medicinal materials piling up in the medical clinic, especially those for relieving summer heat. There was hardly any room to store them.
Jiang Mian sighed worriedly. She had been worried about not having enough medicinal materials, so she had bought a lot. Unexpectedly, it had backfired.
After revising and registering the medicinal material list again, Mo Zhizhang called her over.
"Didn't you say you wanted to learn how to detoxify with me? Now that we have some free time, why don't we start today?"
As soon as Mo Zhizhang said he was going to teach Ye Wanmian how to detoxify, Qi Wenxing rushed over excitedly. "Doctor Mo, can I learn?"
Xiao Jingcheng held the medical record in his hand without moving, but in fact, his ears were pricked up.
Mo Zhizhang said, "If you're interested, you can sit down and listen. But the master only leads the way; it depends on the individual's cultivation. How much you can understand depends on your comprehension."
Xiao Jingcheng tightened his grip on the booklet.
He was sure that Mo Zhizhang was doing this on purpose!
Qi Wen sat down at the table, excitedly waiting to hear what Mo Zhizhang had to say. Suddenly, someone sat down beside him, and the space became very crowded. He turned his head and saw Xiao Jingcheng crossing his arms, smiling slightly.
"Really? Then I'll also come and see how much I can comprehend."
Mo Zhizhang met his somewhat provocative gaze and calmly raised his eyebrows.
The small table was full of people, but Mo Zhizhang's real "apprentice" was only Jiang Mian.
"If you want to learn how to detoxify, you first need to know how many kinds of poisons there are in the world," Mo Zhizhang said slowly. "I wonder how much you, my junior niece, know about poisons?"
Xiao Jingcheng looked at Ye Wanmian. She pondered for a moment and replied,
"Before I became a disciple, I made a living by gathering herbs in Dongli Town. Worried about picking the wrong herbs, I specifically asked my master for a medical manual. Besides common herbs, there were also some poisonous herbs in it."
"Such as Datura, Oleander, Aconitum, Gelsemium..."
She listed all the poisonous plants written in the medical manual one by one. After hearing this, Mo Zhizhang raised his eyebrows slightly.
This girl had actually remembered all the poisons written in the medical manual. It really surprised him.
