The general's eldest daughter has a spatial ability

Chapter 535 Something strange was discovered

Li Liuyun felt a warmth in his heart after hearing Zhuge Qingyi's words. This master, whom he had taken for granted, truly treated him like family, which was why she was still worried about him even though she knew his abilities.

Li Liuyun stepped forward, grabbed Zhuge Qingyi's arm, and shook it: "Hey, old man, don't worry about me. Who can hurt me? Don't worry about anything. Just stay at your senior brother's house and don't run around. Be a good boy and wait for me to take you home."

Zhuge Qingyi looked at Li Liuyun and poked his forehead with her finger: "You're so disrespectful every day, always calling me 'old man,' but I'm your master!"

Li Liuyun pretended to be scared and shrank his neck: "Oh, I know I was wrong, it's Master! Not the old man, is that alright?"

"That's more like it! You must be careful when you're out and about. Don't be careless or underestimate your opponents just because you have some skills. If you walk by the river often, you're bound to get your shoes wet. Even the King of Hell is a troublemaker, and his underlings are hard to deal with! You must be very careful and never be careless, lest you put yourself in danger."

You must always remember your master; I'm still waiting for you to take me home! Your master hasn't had enough of your cooking yet. And that brat, if he dares to bully you, come back and tell your master, and your master will teach him a lesson!

"I know, Master! If he dares to bully me, I'll tell you, when we get back you have to beat him up for me, beat him so badly his own parents won't recognize him!" Li Liuyun laughed and leaned her head on Zhuge Qingyi's shoulder, acting coquettishly!

The sadness of parting was dispelled considerably by Li Liuyun's coquettish interruption.

"The token that your master gave you, Seventeen, can mobilize the Huichuntang in the four kingdoms, and all its resources are at your disposal. If you ever need Huichuntang's help, you can take this token to their manager, and they will help you with anything, whether it's medicine or money."

"Wouldn't I be rich then? Master, aren't you afraid I'll use this token to empty your pockets?" Li Liuyun joked with a smile.

Zhuge Qingyi said, "It doesn't matter whether you give it to me sooner or later, it's all going to be left to you in the future anyway."

Nangong Li and Li Liuyun were quite surprised by Zhuge Qingyi's words.

Li Liuyun touched Zhuge Qingyi's forehead: "Something's not right. She doesn't have a fever, so why is she talking nonsense?"

Zhuge Qingyi pushed Li Liuyun's hand away and glared at him: "Didn't you say you would support your teacher in her old age? There's a saying among the common people that whoever supports their parents in their old age inherits their family fortune. Are you going back on your word and no longer want to support your teacher in her old age?"

Before Li Liuyun could react, Zhuge Qingyi plopped down on the ground, slapped her thighs, and began to wail: "Oh dear, I'm so unlucky! I'm so old, and there's no one willing to take care of me in my old age and see me off in my final days."

Li Liuyun was stunned by Zhuge Qingyi's actions. Seeing the disciple outside the door sticking his head in, Li Liuyun quickly stepped forward and covered Zhuge Qingyi's mouth.

He lowered his voice and said, "Old man, stop howling! When did I ever say I wouldn't take care of you in your old age and see you off in your final days? Didn't I say that I would take you home when I returned from the southern border? If you keep howling, I really won't take care of you anymore."

With Li Liuyun covering her mouth, Zhuge Qingyi could only blink and nod before Li Liuyun finally released her.

After being released by Li Liuyun, Zhuge Qingyi looked at Li Liuyun with a pitiful expression.

"Get up and sit on the stool. You're so old, yet you're acting like a child, sitting on the ground. You're practically throwing a tantrum. Aren't you ashamed?" Li Liuyun said, giving Zhuge Qingyi another disdainful look.

Nangong Li found the master and disciple duo in front of him amusing; they were quite a pair of clowns.

In the study of Prime Minister Lin at the Prime Minister's residence in Southern Xinjiang, Chen Ting sat in a grand chair by the bed: "I wonder what business the Prime Minister has with me, his Preceptor?"

Prime Minister Lin looked at the man in front of him. He looked to be in his early twenties, but he was actually about the same age as him, almost forty. This old man had threatened him before, saying that he had taken a fancy to his daughter, Lin Miao, and that if he did not comply, he would report his secret gold mining to the King of Southern Xinjiang.

Unauthorized gold mining is a capital offense! Left with no other choice, he reluctantly gave Miao'er to this old thief. At first, the old man doted on Miao'er, and in front of others, he maintained a respectful relationship, addressing her as his master and disciple.

Ever since that spy from Beili entered the manor, this old man has been tormenting Miao'er day and night ever since he only glanced at his daughter a couple of times. Today, Miao'er's maid secretly came to beg him to help plead with the Imperial Preceptor.

As he pondered how to begin, Chen Ting looked impatient: "Since the Prime Minister hasn't figured out how to start, I advise you not to speak. I need to go back and continue researching those medicine people."

Although that traitor stole our national master's Gu worms, our nation's greatest weapon is that batch of medicinal humanoids. If anything happens to those humanoids, our heads will be forfeit.

After Chen Ting finished speaking, he stood up and turned to leave. Lin Chenglian quickly stood up and said, "Grand Preceptor, please wait. I have something to discuss with you today. In two days, it will be the anniversary of Miao'er's mother's death. In previous years, around this time, I would go to the temple for a few days to chant sutras for her mother's soul. I hope that you will grant my request and fulfill Miao'er's filial piety. I would be extremely grateful."

After Prime Minister Lin finished speaking, he bowed to Chen Ting, who turned to help him up. "Prime Minister, you are too polite. Although Miao'er and I are nominally master and disciple, I genuinely like her. Given our relationship, you can be considered my father-in-law. Since it is the anniversary of Miao'er's mother's death, let's follow the old customs of previous years!"

"In that case, I thank the Imperial Preceptor on behalf of Miao'er for granting her this request."

Chen Ting nodded, turned and left the study, heading towards the hidden dungeon near the artificial hill. When Chen Ting arrived at the artificial hill, he pressed a button on it, and the two sides of the artificial hill automatically separated, revealing a long staircase. Chen Ting followed the staircase down.

Upon seeing Chen Ting's arrival, the guards of the dark prison respectfully rose and bowed, saying, "Greetings, Grand Preceptor."

Chen Ting nodded and continued inside, arriving at the cell where the drug addicts were being held: "Have these drug addicts shown any unusual behavior recently?"

The guard responsible for watching over the drug-using people answered with trepidation, "Reporting to the Grand Preceptor, these drug-using people are nothing special, except that they seem to have lost their minds even more than before, and some of them can no longer speak."

They seem to have become less human and more like wild beasts. They'll tear each other apart over a single steamed bun, until they're bleeding profusely. Yesterday, I personally witnessed two people fighting over a bun; one of them bit off the other's ear and swallowed it whole.

Chen Ting nodded: "This is the true nature of the medicine man, as fierce as a wild beast. Once he is fully trained, he will become one of my greatest weapons! Moreover, once the medicine man is released, the plague he carries will spread as well, and no one will be able to stop him wherever he goes!"

The guard responsible for watching over the medicine people felt a chill run down his spine and his hair stood on end after hearing Chen Ting's words.

Chen Ting's gaze swept over the medicine-using people one by one, then suddenly turned around and slapped the guard in charge of watching over them.

He then grabbed the guard by the neck: "Speak! Has anyone been here these past few days? There aren't many people here! Why is a mother and child missing!"
