I can't keep a low profile when cultivating immortality; the sixth one is actually myself.

After speeding all the way, we finally arrived back at the patrol office just as the sun was rising.

Upon arriving at the backyard, I saw Xiao Cai pacing back and forth in the yard, looking preoccupied.

Seeing someone come in, Xiao Cai turned around.

Seeing the older boy approaching, Xiao Cai immediately rushed over.

She hugged Toyokawa tightly, as if afraid her little brother would run away.

The rising sun casts its warm morning light.

The light shone on the two people in the courtyard, making them look like a painting.

Time seemed to stand still at that moment, and they both felt incredibly warm.

Neither of them spoke. Xiaocai hugged him tightly, while Fengchuan gently patted Xiaocai's back.

A moment later, Xiao Cai reluctantly let go, her ears turning red.

"Young man, why did you take so long? Has the case been solved? Has the real culprit been found? Was this trip dangerous?"

Xiao Cai asked a lot of questions in a row.

Toyokawa did not answer directly, but instead pulled Aya over and led her to the pavilion in the backyard.

After sitting down, he told Xiao Cai the details of his trip.

As Toyokawa narrated, Aya listened intently.

One can't help but feel angry, tense, worried, and regretful at times.

Only at the very end did he finally break into a smile.

This young man is amazing! He not only solved the case but also brought down the culprits.

Most importantly, the young man's training hasn't lagged behind at all. In fact, his progress is incredibly rapid!

Seeing the young man's calm and confident expression, Xiao Cai's eyes smiled like two crescent moons.

Then, Toyokawa took Aya to the main hall of the yamen.

The report detailed the entire course of the case and the people involved, down to the smallest detail.

Then he summoned the patrol chief of Quzhou Prefecture and ordered him to deliver the memorial to the chief patrol officer in the capital.

With this, all the cases of evil spirits causing havoc in Quzhou have finally come to an end.

In the following three years, Quzhou never experienced any major cases involving demons or evil spirits.

Even Li Jinwen, the governor of Quzhou, was later dismissed from office for the crime of condoning such behavior.

In the time that followed, Toyokawa and Aya spent their time either training or traveling around.

Experience local life and explore the customs and traditions of different places.

Every few days, he would take Xiao Cai back to his home in Qingzhou City to spend time with his parents, uncles and aunts, as well as his younger brother and sister.

Life was simple yet fulfilling.

However, both Toyokawa and Aya were enjoying it immensely.

On this day, Toyokawa finished his training.

Suddenly, he remembered the animal hide scroll he had obtained from the Bloodface storage bag.

He took out the animal hide scroll again and examined it for a long time, but he still couldn't figure out which kind of monster's hide it was.

With nothing else to do, Toyokawa intercepted a wisp of energy and transferred it into the Tai Chi Eight Trigrams Diagram.

As the catalogue rotated, five red lines soon emerged, pointing in different directions.

Toyokawa had only tried it out of curiosity, but it actually worked.

They immediately found Xiao Cai, and then the two of them took off on their swords and sped away along one of the silk threads.

After flying for two hours, they finally arrived at a small mountain village.

We followed the silk thread all the way into the village.

Before long, they arrived at the gate of a dilapidated courtyard.

The courtyard gate was ajar, but at that moment a pleading voice could be heard coming from inside.

"Uncle Village Chief, please, save my grandfather! He's my only remaining family member, I can't lose him too!"

A child's innocent voice rang out.

"Oh, child, it's not that your uncle doesn't want to help you. It's just that your uncle is powerless to do anything about it!"

Our village is too remote. Where can we find a doctor to come here?

Even if a doctor comes, they probably won't be able to save your grandfather!

Your grandfather is now at the end of his life, and there's probably no way to save him!

Ugh……

Child, your uncle has passed away. Spend some more time with your grandfather!

If your grandfather passes away, please come and tell your uncle.

Uncle, let's gather the villagers and help with your grandfather's funeral arrangements!

A kind and impartial voice reached outside the courtyard.

Just then, Toyokawa was about to knock on the door.

Just then, the village chief opened the courtyard gate from the inside.

The two men were taken aback when they saw him, and then the village chief looked at the newcomer with surprise.

"May I ask what brings you here, esteemed guest?"

The village chief immediately calmed down and then asked.

"Hehe, hello uncle! My name is Toyokawa. May I ask your name?"

We are traveling from out of town and are looking for a place to stay.

I happened to hear someone inside the courtyard calling out "Grandpa Village Chief," so I thought I'd come in and take a look.

Toyokawa replied politely.

"Haha, it's young friend Feng. You're too kind, young friend Feng!"

My surname is Zheng, and I am the village head here. This village is called Zhengjia Village, and we are all from the same family.

Although the village is simple, there are still places to stay. Please follow me, young friends.

The village chief was also very hospitable and did not refuse.

"Hehe, Uncle Zheng, please wait a moment. I overheard your conversation with this young friend just now."

Although I am not very talented, I do know a little about medicine. Why don't you take me to see him? Consider it a token of my gratitude for the lodging!"

Toyokawa said modestly.

Before the village chief could answer, the little boy next to him heard that someone could save his grandfather, and immediately knelt down.

"Please, brother, save my grandfather! Please, brother, save my grandfather!"

He pleaded and kept kowtowing.

Upon seeing this, Toyokawa quickly stepped forward and helped the child up.

"Hehe, little brother, don't panic. Let's take your older brother to see your grandfather first!"

Toyokawa said to the little child.

"Haha, so young friend Feng also knows medicine. That's wonderful, please come in!"

I was just worried sick about my nephew. If you can treat him, it will be a huge help!

Upon seeing this, the village chief immediately led the way into a dilapidated house.

The room was somewhat dark and damp, but it was fairly clean.

Upon arriving at the bedside, Toyokawa saw an old man lying on the bed with his eyes closed.

However, the old man looked very unwell and was extremely weak.

It's currently in a state of exhaling more air than inhaling air.

I estimate it won't be long before I can't hold on any longer.

Judging from his appearance, the old man should have passed away a long time ago.

She must have been worried about her grandson, which is why she held on to her last breath and refused to swallow!

"Alas, how pitiful are the parents in the world!"

Without much thought, Fengchuan produced a pill with a flash of light in his hand.

Without hesitation, he fed it to the bedridden old man.

As the pill entered his stomach, its powerful medicinal effects immediately took hold throughout the old man's body.

Soon, the old man's body surface began to be covered with fine sweat, which brought out a lot of black impurities and had an extremely pungent smell.

After another incense stick's time, the medicine wore off, and the old man finally woke up slowly.

Perhaps due to prolonged hunger and this serious illness, the old man was extremely weak.

Then, Fengchuan took out a fasting pill and fed it to the old man.

After a short while, the old man's complexion became rosy.

Then the old man lifted the blanket and got off the wooden bed.

He immediately knelt down in front of Toyokawa.

"I am Zheng Dayong, and I thank you, little immortal, for saving my life!"

As he spoke, he was about to kowtow.

Upon seeing this, Toyokawa quickly stepped aside and then helped the old man up.

But as soon as they helped one child up, the other child suddenly knelt down again with a thud.

"Thank you, brother, for saving my grandfather! Thank you, brother, for saving my grandfather! Thank you, brother, for saving my grandfather!"

He kowtowed repeatedly, crying and laughing at the same time.

The child was crying and sniffling, leaving Toyokawa feeling helpless. He could only rush over and help the child up.

"Hehe, no need to thank me, it was just a coincidence."

As Toyokawa brushed the dust off the baby, he said with a smile.

Then he looked at the village chief.

"Uncle Zheng, I'd like to speak with Grandpa Zheng and his grandson alone. Is that alright?"

"Haha, please make yourself at the young doctor's place. I, Zheng, will wait for you two outside the courtyard!"

Uncle Zheng was not reserved at all and went straight outside the courtyard.

Then, Toyokawa looked at Grandpa Zheng.

"Grandpa Dayong, I actually came here to look for something, but I happened to encounter you being seriously ill."

To be honest, I helped the child for two reasons. First, I couldn't bear to see the child so pitiful. Second, I needed something from him.

I wonder if you have ever seen this kind of animal skin roll.

I would like to purchase this item from you. What do you think?

Toyokawa told him directly the purpose of his visit without any attempt to conceal it.

When Grandpa Zheng saw the animal skin scroll in Fengchuan's hand, he was stunned for a moment, and then fell into his memories.

It took her a while to regain consciousness, thanks to her grandson shaking her.

"Haha, please excuse my poor attempt to make a fool of myself!"

The animal skin scroll you mentioned, I have indeed seen it before, and I even have one at home.

That thing was actually something the child's father found by chance in a cave when he went hunting in the mountains many years ago.

My family also studied it for a long time, but we still couldn't understand it at all.

I didn't think much of it after that and put it in the cabinet along with some other odds and ends.

This item is of no use to us. If you need it, young man, don't hesitate to ask me for it. I'll give it to you!

After all, the little miracle doctor saved me, a man on the verge of death!

The kindness of saving my life is greater than heaven; I don't know how to repay it!

If I can help you even in the smallest way, it's just a small token of my appreciation!

After finishing his sentence, Grandpa Zheng walked to a dilapidated wooden cabinet.

After searching for a long time, they finally found the animal skin scroll.

It seems to have been sitting there for a long time.

Without saying a word, he handed it directly to Toyokawa.

Toyokawa accepted the animal skin scroll without ceremony and put it away.

Then, he took out a talisman and activated it on the baby.

Suddenly, the talisman shone brightly, and Toyokawa was taken aback.

It's unexpected that such a random village would have such a talented and promising young person.

"Brother, what's your name?" Toyokawa asked.

“Brother, my name is Zheng Hu,” the child replied.

"Then would you be willing to become my disciple?" Toyokawa asked solemnly.

Xiao Hu was stunned when he heard this, and was at a loss for what to do.

"Tiger, what are you waiting for? Hurry up and become my apprentice!" Grandpa Zheng shouted excitedly.

Upon hearing this, Xiao Hu immediately knelt down again and kowtowed three times to Feng Chuan.

This time, Toyokawa did not avoid it and took the initiative to accept the apprenticeship ceremony.

Then, Toyokawa slightly raised his hand, and Xiaohu automatically stood up.

At this moment, Grandpa Zheng and Xiao Hu stared wide-eyed, their faces filled with disbelief.

However, Toyokawa ignored their shock, gave them some more instructions, and then left.

After finding Uncle Zheng, they found a simple place to stay under his guidance.

Toyokawa didn't mind and stayed there.

Before parting, he also gave Uncle Zheng a lot of silver.

However, Uncle Zheng did not accept the money, but simply told Fengchuan and his companion to settle down and stay.

You don't need to worry about food either; he will arrange for someone to deliver it regularly.

Next, Toyokawa settled down in the village.

He needed to help Xiaohu lay a foundation for his cultivation before he could leave.
