Ye Qinglin raised her eyebrows in confusion and asked, "What is this?"

"A wooden sign that can be used to contact my master." Xie Xu pinched the back of Ye Qinglin's hand and explained in a calm tone: "Li Dali is eyeing us covetously, we have conflicts with the Feng family, and Feng Laosan's martial arts are not bad.

I am afraid that you will be in danger. I cannot protect everyone now. I want to contact Master and ask him to protect us in secret."

Ye Qinglin agreed with Xie Xu's idea.

"Then how do I contact Master?" Ye Qinglin asked curiously.

Xie Xu's deep eyes curved, and he said in a gentle voice: "Take the wooden sign to a noodle shop in the town, show it to the boss, and tell him that little Xie is looking for the stinky old man, and ask the stinky old man to go to Qinghua Town to wait for little Xie."

Hearing this, Ye Qinglin blinked and couldn't help laughing: "Little Xiezi? Stinky old man?"

Xie Xu was a little embarrassed and laughed twice: "Master, he is a little naughty."

"Okay, I'll go out now." After saying this, Ye Qinglin went out.

There was a noodle restaurant not far from the inn, and Ye Qinglin found it quickly.

She walked in and showed the wooden sign to her boss.

The boss was stunned when he saw the wooden sign. He glanced at the customer who was eating noodles and his expression became serious: "Young lady, please go to the backyard and wait for a moment."

Ye Qinglin nodded in understanding and followed the waiter to the backyard. After a while, the boss came and looked at Ye Qinglin with a little more respect.

"Young lady, what can I do for you?"

Ye Qinglin smiled and repeated what Xie Xu said.

The boss paused for a moment, then said more respectfully: "Don't worry, young lady, I will convey your message."

"That would be troublesome."

Ye Qinglin bowed to the other party and went out.

Seeing Ye Qinglin coming back, Xie Xu secretly breathed a sigh of relief: "No one found out, right?"

"No." Ye Qinglin shook her head and sat next to Xie Xu. While Chen and Su Yun went to the next room, she changed the medicine for Xie Xu's wound.

Seeing that the wound on Xie Xu's butt had already healed and some new flesh had grown, Ye Qinglin was happy and changed the bandage carefully.

"Xie Xu, your injury will heal soon."

Xie Xu hummed softly, raised his hand and rubbed Ye Qinglin's thin wrist: "Wait for Master to come and ask Master to help me check my knee."

Ye Qinglin's eyes lit up: "Master knows medical skills?"

Xie Xu nodded: "Yes, his medical skills are OK, but I don't know if he can cure the knee."

Ye Qinglin knew what Xie Xu was thinking and patted the back of his hand: "If Master can't cure it, we shouldn't give up. We will definitely find a doctor who can treat the knee."

She had been wandering in the human world for twenty years and had heard of the name of the master bone-setter. He could cure any patient with a leg or foot injury.

Unfortunately, she didn't know the bonesetter's name, nor had she seen what he looked like. She only knew that the bonesetter was from Yongcheng, Cangzhou.

When they go to Yongcheng, Cangzhou, they must inquire about the news of the bonesetter.

the other side.

Li Dali took a look at the sky and heard his men report that the Xie family had gone out to look for someone and had not returned yet. He curled his lips sarcastically and asked his men to keep a good eye on the other prisoners while he went out to look for the Xie family.

When Liu Shitou heard that Li Dali was going to look for someone, he hurried to follow him, but was pushed away by Li Dali.

"Liu Shitou, I have forgiven you for your previous mistakes. If you still insist on not seeing your true identity clearly, don't blame me!"

As the voice fell, Li Dali pulled out the whip from his waist and swept it coldly towards Liu Shitou.

Liu Shitou bit his lip and wanted to say something, but was stopped by the escort next to him, who apologized to Li Dali and took Liu Shitou away.

Li Dali snorted unhappily, turned around and walked out of the inn, heading straight for the yard where the thugs lived.

"Where are the people?" Li Dali raised his eyes to look at the tall man, with a look of superiority: "Take me there now."

The tall man glanced at Li Dali, forced out a flattering smile, made a gesture of invitation, and took Li Dali to the yard next door.

As soon as he opened the door, a sack wrapped around Li Dali.

Li Dali growled, "What do you want to do?"

The tall man snorted and said angrily, "Of course I'm going to teach you a lesson. If it weren't for you, our brothers wouldn't have been hurt. Just now, a few people came over and beat us up and took the people away.

Not only that, they sprinkled itching powder on us, and there was not a single piece of good meat on my brothers, and it was all your fault!"

As the voice fell, the tall man waved his hand, signaling his men to take action.

Li Dali had no weapon in his hand and was put in a sack, so he could not protect himself at all. He was beaten by the thugs until his face was bruised and swollen and he felt dizzy.

Before Li Dali could come to his senses, he felt someone holding his chin. The tall man stuffed a pill into his mouth and poured some water into his mouth. Li Dali swallowed the pill.

"Let me give you a taste of poison."

Upon hearing this, Li Dali panicked and scratched his throat with his hands, trying to spit out the poison.

The hooligans laughed when they saw this: "We didn't expect that he would believe us just because we said it casually. How can you be a bailiff if you are so timid?"

Li Dali secretly let out a breath, stood up and wanted to teach the thugs a lesson, but found that they were running away one by one.

Feeling unwell, Li Dali gave up the idea of ​​settling scores with the thugs. Instead, he walked out of the yard and went to the town's clinic to ask the doctor to check him. Only after the doctor confirmed that he was not poisoned did Li Dali breathe a sigh of relief.

However, when he returned to the inn, thinking about what the thugs said, Li Dali became so angry that he swept the teacup on the table to the ground.

"Damn it, failed again!"

Li Dali knew that the Xie family had begun to suspect him.

*

After a rare good night's sleep, the Xie family and the Liu family father and son were full of energy. They had meat buns, eggs and milk for breakfast and were all in a good mood.

Then they left the inn and headed straight for the inn where the exile team was staying.

Seeing Li Dali standing outside the inn with a bruised face and nose, Ye Qinglin felt that her fifty taels of silver were well spent.

Ye Qinglin knew exactly why Li Dali was standing at the door.

Li Dali must have thought that his sweet words could dispel the Xie family's suspicions, allow them to continue to interact with them, and look for an opportunity to take action against Xie Xu.

"Old lady, you are finally back. I didn't expect you to find the Marquis. You are so lucky!" Li Dali walked forward excitedly with red eyes, looking worried about them.

The Xie family had already witnessed Li Dali's cruelty, so they naturally would not be fooled.

Ye Qinglin felt that the two sides had already torn their relations apart, and there was no need to be hypocritical.

"Yeah, I also think we are lucky, otherwise we wouldn't be able to see someone's true face and might be fooled!" Ye Qinglin smiled meaningfully.

The smile on Li Dali's face stiffened a little. He glared at Ye Qinglin fiercely behind her back, then resumed his attitude of speaking in a friendly manner.

"Madam, are you talking about Liu Shitou? I also think he has ulterior motives."

Ye Qinglin was not afraid of Li Dali at all, and did not want to waste time talking to him. She curled her lips and sneered, "Master Li knows what he did better than anyone else. Don't put on a show in front of us."
