Chapter 59 Pretending to fall into the trap

After Ye Qinglin comforted him, Xie Xu's emotions finally stabilized.

Because he was worried about her, Xie Xu had been in a state of anxiety and self-blame. Now that Ye Qinglin was safe and sound, Xie Xu soon felt sleepy and fell asleep.

Seeing Xie Xu sleeping, Ye Qinglin tucked the quilt in for him and touched the tip of his tall nose with her index finger.

"You! You are still the same as before, fond of daydreaming."

After she finished speaking, Ye Qinglin walked out of the room. She had just done something big and was too excited to sleep, so she took a walk in the backyard of the inn.

Suddenly a black shadow appeared, and Ye Qinglin stepped back in fear. When she saw the figure standing in front of her, her eyes lit up.

"Uncle?"

Old man Chen seemed dissatisfied with this title. His brows were furrowed into a "川" shape. He just looked at Ye Qinglin with complicated eyes but didn't say anything.

"What are you doing walking around here so late?"

Old Man Chen's tone was a little stiff, and there was a hint of discomfort.

Ye Qinglin was very happy to see Old Man Chen talking to her.

"Uncle, thank you for what happened tonight. If it weren't for you, Yu'er and I would have fallen into a trap and wouldn't have been able to find the herbs so quickly."

Ye Qinglin bowed to Old Man Chen. Seeing that he was still looking at her with a complicated expression, Ye Qinglin moved her red lips twice: "Uncle, why don't you want to see mother?"

The corners of Old Man Chen's mouth were tightly pulled down, and he spoke after a while: "It's not the time yet."

Ye Qinglin was slightly startled, a little puzzled: "Uncle, what do you mean by this?"

Old man Chen sighed and suddenly turned around: "It's not time for us to recognize each other yet."

Ye Qinglin raised her eyebrows suspiciously. She didn't know if it was her illusion. She felt that when Old Man Chen said "we", he was not referring to him and the Chen family, but to her and him...

Thinking of this, Ye Qinglin shook her head and put the strange thoughts in her mind behind her.

After walking a few steps, Old Man Chen suddenly stopped, turned his head and looked deeply at Ye Qinglin, his gaze lingering on her belly.

"The baby in your belly is fine, but you shouldn't overwork yourself!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Old Man Chen strode away into the night, leaving Ye Qinglin alone and disheveled.

Ye Qinglin always felt that there was something else behind what Old Man Chen said.

On the other side, at the Huang Mansion.

When Mr. Huang and Crazy Du heard the servants report that the medicinal herbs in the woodshed were gone, they were shocked and glared fiercely at Dongfang Yu and Liu Yueshi opposite them.

"Liu Shitou, I didn't expect you to be able to lure the tiger away from the mountain." Crazy Du said gritting his teeth.

"Same here." Liu Yueshi chuckled, "Luckily I know your temper, so I'm prepared for both situations."

Huang was furious: "With so many herbs, it's impossible for them to transport them away so quickly. They must have hidden them. Hurry up and look for them everywhere."

Mr. Huang was very angry and his face darkened.

If that pile of medicinal herbs were snatched away, they would lose their dominant position in the plague and wouldn't even gain any benefit.

Crazy Du also thought so. He glanced coldly at Liu Yueshi and followed him to look for herbs.

Dongfang Yu and Liu Yueshi smiled at each other and secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

They were sure that Ye Qinglin and Bai Yuer had succeeded.

Taking advantage of the chaos, the two used their Qinggong skills to leave.

Crazy Du and Mr. Huang ignored them. Firstly, because the two men were good at martial arts and they could not stop them, and secondly, the most important thing now was that batch of medicinal materials.

Dongfang Yu and Liu Yueshi returned to the inn, and Zhou Ping, wearing a long green gown, came.

Zhou Ping bowed to the two of them and said, "Third Master, did Doctor Liu's operation go smoothly?"

Liu Yueshi grinned and gave Zhou Ping a look that said 'don't worry'.

Zhou Ping let out a long breath, with a hint of excitement in his eyes.

Afterwards, Zhou Ping brought the constables over and took away some of the medicinal herbs.

Ye Qinglin only took out a part of the medicinal herbs, mainly because she was worried that Crazy Du and Mr. Huang would take action. For safety reasons, she placed most of the herbs in her space.

After searching for a whole night and still not finding the herbs, Crazy Du and Mr. Huang became angry.

"I don't believe they took all the herbs away!" Huang Yuanwai said angrily, "If they did, someone would definitely find them, but there are no clues in the firewood room or on the road outside."

Crazy Du frowned, then thought of something, and said in a hoarse voice with a hint of coldness: "Didn't they say that a woman got the peace locket?"

Upon hearing this, Mr. Huang was suddenly shocked: "You let the peace lock recognize its master, and then the other party obtained the magic and transported the medicinal materials away?"

Crazy Du nodded gently: "How else can I explain what you just said! Besides, it is the peace locket of the Chen family. It is not surprising that it has some inexplicable abilities."

Huang suddenly understood and nodded: "Mr. Du is right, it's just that I am ignorant."

"Now that those medicinal herbs have been snatched away by Liu Yueshi, they will definitely be able to cure the people infected with the plague, and our efforts will be in vain." Mr. Huang was a little angry and very unwilling to say so.

Crazy Du pulled the corner of his mouth and shook his head: "No, the day after tomorrow I will use the Sui Xin grass to create another plague, and Liu Yueshi will definitely be too busy to handle it.

Besides, with two plagues superimposed on each other, no matter how skilled Liu Yueshi is as a doctor, it would be impossible for him to find a solution all at once.

Even if Liu Yueshi really developed a prescription, it would take several days. We can take advantage of this time to spread rumors and make the people of Hongcheng panic.

If the people of Xinghua Village take the opportunity to escape, Hongcheng will be in chaos and Liu Yueshi will not be able to control it at all."

Upon hearing this, Huang nodded and smiled complacently: "No wonder King Xiang trusts Mr. Du so much. Mr. Du is indeed a man of great talent."

Everyone likes to hear compliments from others, and Crazy Du is no exception.

"We will do nothing for the next two days, so that Liu Yueshi and the others will think that we are powerless and let down their guard. Then we will give them a fatal blow." Crazy Du smiled coldly.

Mr. Huang smiled so hard that he couldn't close his mouth and nodded: "Just do as Mr. Du says!"

At the same time, in Xie Xu's room.

Xie Xu, Dongfang Yu and Liu Yueshi discussed the next countermeasures in the room.

Liu Yueshi was the first to speak: "Based on my understanding of Crazy Du, he will not stop and will most likely create a second plague, so what you need to do now is to send someone to sneak into Xinghua Village to protect the Sui Xin grass."

Dongfang Yu raised his gentle eyes slightly and nodded slowly: "Doctor Liu, I understand. I will send a pigeon to the people in Mingyue Villa nearby and ask them to go to Xinghua Village."

Xie Xu narrowed his deep eyes slightly, not knowing what he was thinking, and spoke slowly: "Brother, you'd better let them change their appearance, and we should not alert the enemy and let Crazy Du and Mr. Huang think we have fallen into a trap."

Liu Yueshi touched his chin and frowned slightly: "The Sui Xin grass will bloom in two days. Crazy Du will definitely pick it himself the day after tomorrow. By then, the people of Mingyue Villa will not be a match for Crazy Du."

Xie Xu smiled and looked at Liu Yueshi with burning eyes: "Brother Liu, this important task is now handed over to you. You must protect the Sui Xin Grass when the time comes."

"The people from Mingyue Villa and I will protect you. If a fight is unavoidable, we will stand up!" Dongfang Yu quickly made the promise.

Liu Yueshi scratched his hair in annoyance, looked at Xie Xu, then looked at Dongfang Yu: "Alright, Crazy Du and I will have a fight anyway, it doesn't matter if it's sooner or later."

Hearing this, Xie Xu and Dongfang Yu smiled at each other.
