Looking for you in reincarnation

They were extremely angry, but the county magistrate was in critical condition, so they could only find a way to get some more medicinal herbs and boil some medicine for him to drink first.

However, this corpse poison is unusual and cannot be cured by ordinary medicine. The condition is getting worse and worse.

Because of this incident, the entire Lingcheng was once again under martial law, and there were intensive patrols of the streets and alleys by police officers.

After daybreak, entry and exit at the city gate became more strictly controlled, and the inspection was very detailed.

As the sun rose high in the sky, a carriage entered the city, with guards in front and behind. When the officers who were checking the carriage saw the sign on the carriage, they immediately let it pass, very respectfully.

The person in the carriage was the national teacher Jiang Yuan.

Something happened in the county magistrate's mansion last night, and someone reported it to him immediately. He happened to be dealing with several sects near Lingcheng recently, so he came to take a look after daybreak.

When he arrived at the county magistrate's mansion, he went straight to Gao Hua's bedroom.

At this time, there was a lot of crying in the bedroom. It was Gao Hua's concubines and sons. They were crying and wailing, and those who didn't know would think that they were dead.

Gao Hua's wife died of illness a few years ago. Now there are only concubines in the mansion. These concubines gave birth to many children for him, but he never made any of the concubines his legal wife. Therefore, there have been undercurrents in the backyard, just to gain more benefits.

Now that Gao Hua is critically ill, they are naturally anxious and rush into the bedroom, crying and arguing.

However, the room smelled very bad, with a faint stench of decay in the air, as if a stinking rat had died in the room. Even if the doors and windows were opened for ventilation, the unpleasant smell could not be dispelled.

At this time, Gao Hua had fallen into a coma, his face was covered with horrifying corpse spots, and the poison was acting very violently.

In just one night, his condition worsened very seriously. He seemed like a different person and was extremely scary to look at.

His concubines and sons were all terrified when they saw this and did not dare to get close. They just stayed far away in the small hall outside the bedroom, separated from the bed by a curtain.

It was because they saw Gao Hua in this state that they felt he was hopeless, so they were anxious to gain some benefits before he died.

When Jiang Yuan arrived, he saw this noisy scene.

He raised his hand, and the guards beside him hurried forward and drove them all out.

They didn't dare to say a word because of the identity of the national teacher opposite them. They even stopped crying and went out obediently one by one.

The bedroom was suddenly empty, even the doctors had left, leaving only Gao Hua lying on the bed.

The guards were standing outside the door, and Jiang Yuan walked in slowly.

He remained calm about the foul smell in the air, as if he was used to it.

He walked to the bedside and looked at the seriously ill Gao Hua with interest. After a while, he took off his veil and gloves, sat down beside the bed, stretched out his hand, and checked Gao Hua's current condition.

After a quick inspection, Jiang Yuan stretched out his sharp nails and pricked Gao Hua's wrist. In an instant, a small cut appeared and dark red blood flowed out of the cut.

The blood was a bit sticky and had a strong fishy smell, and its dark red color was ominous.

Jiang Yuan withdrew his hand, smelled the blood on his nails, then took it away with some disgust, wiped the blood stains on the quilt on the bed, and wiped his fingers clean.

After a while, he took out a small porcelain bottle and fed Gao Hua some medicine. Then, he took out a spiritual essence. He sucked most of the semen in the spiritual essence himself, then stuffed the rest into Gao Hua's mouth, pressed his hand, and forced Gao Hua to swallow it.

After a while, Gao Hua's body began to tremble and his face became hideous.

Jiang Yuan took out another needle and inserted it into several acupuncture points on his body. After a while, Gao Hua slowly stopped trembling.

Jiang Yuan looked at it for a while, feeling slightly satisfied, then he stood up and walked out.

On this day, things changed in the county magistrate's office.

The government announced that County Magistrate Gao Hua was attacked by an assassin and was critically ill, and his family members followed him out of the city for recuperation.

Lingcheng was taken over by newly appointed officials, who added a lot of manpower to capture assassins and thieves. Officials could be seen everywhere in the city.

The same is true for the rural towns outside the city, where patrols by officials are very frequent.

For a time, there was a roar of wind.

Now, not only Lingcheng, but several surrounding cities are under martial law and search. If it weren't for the constant fighting on the border, not many people could be mobilized, and I'm afraid there would be no place to hide in the mountains.

……

Liangjia Village was bustling with activity early in the morning.

Because a person went missing in the village yesterday and has not been found yet, a group of villagers were preparing to go into the mountains to look for him again today, but a group of officials arrived at the village entrance.

They asked the village chief if any outsiders had been to the village, conducted routine checks, and carried some wanted posters with them for the villagers to identify.

In the past, these officials would come every few days, but recently they have been coming more frequently, once every one or two days.

In fact, the officials were not very willing to run to these rural towns every day. They held low positions and were not equipped with horses when they went out. After all, horses were quite expensive. There were many people in the government office, so it was impossible to equip everyone with one.

If there were no orders from above to come out for investigation and the reward on the wanted list was not very high, who would want to do such hard work?

After the investigation, the village chief wanted the officials to help him go into the mountains to look for someone, saying that someone in the village had gone missing.

But the officials refused on the grounds that they were busy with official duties.

Missing people have become quite common in recent years, especially after the tense war, which has caused chaos in the world.

What's more, this person disappeared in the mountains, so it is very likely that he was in danger.

In this kind of situation, even if you find the person, you still have to help collect the body. If you don't find the person, you won't get any benefits. Moreover, it is very dangerous to go into the mountains, and no one is willing to do this hard work.

Helplessly, the villagers could only look for it themselves.

There are many more villagers going into the mountains today than last night. After all, going into the mountains at night is too risky, and most people are still not willing to take the risk. But going into the mountains during the day is not only convenient, but you can also bring back some mountain products, killing two birds with one stone.

So, a group of dozens of people, carrying their equipment and tools, headed into the mountains in a grand manner.

At this time, the people in the forest were also preparing to leave the cave.

The people from Bai Shi Sect were anxious to get their reward, and now they regretted that they should have gotten the reward before looking for the medicine. Now they had to make another trip, which only added to the trouble.

As for the matter of the elixir of immortality, they asked about it many times last night, but Xie Meng refused to speak and insisted on finding Hu Qing and getting all the medicine before they could talk about it.

Out of their last bit of face, the people of Baishi Sect did not break up and did not ask any more questions. Besides, Zhao Mie and others were still watching closely outside the cave, so it was difficult to say much.

Today, He Biao and his men had agreed to take only a few skilled men with them to collect their rewards, while the others would remain behind to watch, fearing any further trouble from the Taiyi Sect. After receiving their rewards, they would then try to pry Xie Meng open and interrogate him about the elixir of immortality.

If possible, they also want to leave the mountains, but the search outside is too strict. If they want to leave, they can only take the mountain road, but before that, they have to get the reward first.
