245 At this time, the other Cao Gang disciples also rushed over to ask, and Sun Ye said: "Oh, I don't know, he ran away."
The group left.
At this time, Chen Jie also carried his luggage and went directly to Xiantao Village.
It has been a few months since I came out, and I don't know how things are going at home.
In the evening, in Xiantao Village, Wu Zhong returned home with a sad face.
Bai Shi asked with concern, "What happened to the boss? Why are there so many people from the fishing gang guarding our door?"
Wu Zhong sat down with a sad face.
Doctor Bai also asked, "What happened?"
Wu Zhong said, "Dad, something big has happened. Jiu Si is wanted."
"Nine-four? Tell me what's going on!"
After hearing what Wu Zhong said, Bai Wenjing could no longer sit still. Chen Jiusi was his last disciple, and last disciple was raised like a son.
And Bai Wenjing also treated him as her own grandson.
A few days ago, Wu Zhong came back and said that Jiu Si had made great progress and was now the leader of Baihu Hall. The old man was so happy that he drank a pot of liquor directly, and he didn't get drunk.
Although he didn't say it, he couldn't hide his happiness.
But it's only been a few days, how could he be framed?
Bai was also anxious. Jiu Si and his wife had a very good relationship with her. When Jiu Si got into trouble, she couldn't help but ask, "Boss, what happened?"
Wu Zhong said: "Tang Master Peng was murdered, and the murderer is suspected to be Jiu Si!"
"What? Impossible! Jiu Si would never do such a thing!"
After hearing this, Doctor Bai said directly: "I know Jiu Si's character. He would not do such an ungrateful thing."
Bai also said: "Yes, the master must have made a mistake, nine four, impossible!"
Wu Zhong said: "I also know that Jiu Si can't do it, but now the gang leader has personally ordered that the entire Mianshui County is looking for Jiu Si, and has issued a hunting order. Anyone who kills Jiu Si will be rewarded with 10,000 taels of silver, and anyone who provides information will be rewarded with 50 to 500 taels of silver. Jiu Si is now a rat crossing the street!"
"ah!"
After hearing this, Bai exclaimed, and Bai Wenjing also widened her eyes in shock.
Then he said: "How could this be, how could this be!"
Mrs. Bai was even more distressed and said, "How will Yunjin live after Jiusi suffered such a disaster? Why is her life so miserable? She just started to live a good life and encountered such a thing. Head of the family, you should go to the city tomorrow and find a way to bring Yunjin back. How can she live alone in the city!"
Wu Zhong said: "Well, I will go to the city tomorrow."
"I'll go with you."
At this time Doctor Bai said.
"Dad, what are you doing?"
Bai Wenjing said: "I may still have some face left. I will go to the city and ask for help. I hope I can give Jiu Si a chance to survive."
"Ah, Dad, after all the trouble you had with Nei Tang, didn't you say you would never go into the city and never bow your head?"
"I don't care about that. My old face is worth nothing. If I can help Jiu Si survive, I will die here. That's fine. Pack up and go into the city tomorrow."
"Why."
Wu Zhong responded, and Bai said, "Wait a minute, I'll go get some money, maybe it'll be useful."
As they were talking, the family started to get busy, and at this moment, a figure suddenly flew into the yard.
The Bai family was stunned and looked over vigilantly, then they saw a man wearing coarse cloth and a straw hat standing in the shadows.
Wu Zhong stepped forward and stood in front of Doctor Bai and Mrs. Bai and asked, "Who are you and why are you here so late at night?"
At this moment, the bamboo hat was lifted, revealing a familiar face.
"Uncle Zhong!"
Chen Jie looked at the family in front of him with a smile on his face.
"Nine...four!"
Chapter 142 Entering the Gray Mist and Obtaining Treasures
"Ninety-four!"
Doctor Bai's eyes lit up at this moment, and he called out. Uncle Zhong immediately stepped forward and said, "Shh, Dad, the walls have ears!"
Doctor Bai reacted immediately, and Uncle Zhong said, "Dad, you guys chat first, I'll go..."
Uh-huh!
Doctor Bai nodded, and Wu Zhong quietly came to the gate of his own compound. At this time, Chen Jie stepped forward and grabbed Doctor Bai's hand and said, "Master, are you okay?"
Doctor Bai almost cried when he heard the word "Master" and said, "Jiu Si, you have been wronged!"
After hearing this, Chen Jie said, "Master, no, I have never been wronged. Everything is fine."
Doctor Bai said, "Don't worry about it. I heard from others that you were wrongly accused of killing Peng Shizhong."
"Isn't this nonsense? I am the disciple of the Ninth Sect and I value friendship the most. How could I kill my adoptive father? My son, you stay here for one night. I will go to the city tomorrow. Even if it means sacrificing my reputation, I will go to the leader to complain and ask him to thoroughly investigate the matter and clear your name."
Doctor Bai was very excited.
After hearing this, Chen Jie immediately advised, "Master, don't worry about this matter, and don't go to the city. The gang leader is among those who are plotting against me. If you go and file a complaint, you will be trapped."
"Ah, this, this…"
Doctor Bai widened his eyes. He didn't expect that the matter involved the gang leader.
At this time Wu Zhong also came back. Fortunately, the people guarding their gate were quite far away.
At this time he said: "Jiu Si, what is going on? Why did the gang leader frame you?"
Chen Jie thought for a moment and said, "Master, Uncle Zhong, you must not interfere in this matter. Just wait for a few days. No matter what happens outside, you should ignore it. Also, do whatever the gang asks you to do, and don't resist. I have arranged everything."
"As for this matter..."
Chen Jie slowly recounted the entire story, including the intrigue between Peng Shizhong and Nan Batian, and the trap set by Feng Xuan. He told it all.
After hearing this, Doctor Bai said, "So that's how it is. It's actually an old story."
Chen Jie looked at Doctor Bai when he heard this. Doctor Bai said, "I know about their affairs. The old gang leader has three disciples. The eldest disciple is Peng Shizhong, the second disciple is Nan Batian, and the third disciple is Xu Nianjiao."
"When we were young, the three of us grew up together. I could see that the two of them had feelings for this little sister. Later, for some unknown reason, Nan Batian broke the gang rules. The reason for his punishment at the time was that he became a disciple of the devil and brought disaster to the gang members. He was sentenced to three cuts and six holes!"
"Then, the night before the execution, Xu Nianjiao committed suicide. On the day of the execution, the old gang leader, thinking of their old friendship, avoided Xu Nianjiao's heart with the last knife strike, thus saving his life..."
Doctor Bai was an old member of the fishing gang, so he knew a lot about Nan Batian's past, and he told it out now.
"So, it was Peng Shizhong who reported Nan Batian for becoming a disciple of the devil, and Xu Nianjiao was implicated in this incident and committed suicide. So Nan Batian hated Peng Shizhong, and this led to the dispute we have today, right?"
After hearing this, Chen Jie said, "Master, what you said is very true."
Bai Wenjing said: "Jiu Si, from what you said, it is extremely difficult for you to overturn the verdict this time, and Master can't help you either. What are you going to do next?"
After hearing this, Chen Jie said, "Master, I already have a plan, but before I implement it, I must first improve my strength."
"I am only at the Iron Bone Realm now. If I want to deal with the current situation, I must reach the Transformation Realm. Therefore, I plan to first refine a pill that can help me break through the Transformation Realm, the Transformation Spirit Pill!"
"Spiritual Transformation Pill!"
Bai Wenjing heard this and said, "This kind of precious medicine is hard to come by. If you want to refine it, you need a lot of natural treasures!"
Chen Jie said: "Master, what you said is very true, but I have already collected the thirty-six auxiliary medicines for refining this medicine. I have obtained two of the three main medicines. Now I only lack one, so I want to ask Uncle Zhong."
"Ask me?"
Wu Zhong was stunned, and Chen Jie said, "Yes, Uncle Zhong, it's like this, the last herb is a 500-year-old blood ganoderma!"
"Blood Ganoderma!"
Wu Zhong was stunned when he heard this, and then looked at Chen Jie and said, "Jiu Si, you don't want to enter the gray fog!"
Chen Jie said: "Yes, I want to ask Uncle Zhong if there is any trace of the blood ganoderma in this gray fog!"
After hearing this, Wu Zhong frowned and said, "Jiu Si, this gray fog is extremely dangerous. I was just wandering around the edge for a while and I almost died. Even Peng Shizhong, Gu Qingfeng, Zhang Liye, and the messenger from Huangzhou Prefecture, four masters of Huajin, did not dare to go deep into it. It is really too dangerous!"
Chen Jie heard this and said, "Uncle Zhong, I understand the danger, but I really need this herb right now. Just tell me if there is any chance of it being here."
"Of course there are. I picked that hundred-year-old blood Ganoderma lucidum that day and took a look inside. There should be quite a few Ganoderma lucidum inside. There should also be some that are over five hundred years old."
After hearing this, Chen Jie said, "Okay, I understand. It's good to have it."
Doctor Bai said at the side: "Jiu Si, don't be impulsive. Don't enter this gray fog easily."
Chen Jie heard this and said, "Master, don't worry, I will be well prepared before entering. Besides, Master, I am very powerful now, and I am considered a master in the Iron Bone Realm!"
Hearing this, Doctor Bai said with relief: "Yes, yes, I know. Ah Zhong said it when he came back. Feng San, the spearman, established his prestige with one battle. People in Mianshui call him Master Chen Wu of the Soul-Chasing Spear, right?"
"Master, you are joking."
Chen Jie felt a little embarrassed by what Doctor Bai said. Doctor Bai said, "What's there to be embarrassed about? It's a good thing to establish your reputation in the martial arts world. Your master is very happy for you!"
Bai Wenjing and Wu Zhong followed Chen Jie to talk.
Aunt Bai couldn't get a word in and said, "Jiu Si, you guys chat first, I'll go prepare the bedding."
Doctor Bai said, "Please let me have a room. I want to have a night chat with my disciple and discuss what we have seen and heard in this county."
Chen Jie heard this and said, "Master, let's talk about this later. I can't stay here today."
"Ah, why?"
Doctor Bai asked.
"Master, I am a fugitive now. Staying here will only bring disaster upon myself!"
"I'm not afraid of any disaster. I'll stay here today. It's okay."
Doctor Bai was unhappy and went home without even staying overnight. Is that okay?
Chen Jie hurriedly comforted him: "Master, Master, listen to me, I have something important to ask you and Uncle Zhong. I have thirty-six kinds of auxiliary medicines. I will ask Brother Hong to take them out of the city and send them to our Xiantao Village. Uncle Zhong, please find a way to hide them. When I find the blood ganoderma, we will refine the spirit-transforming pill together."
