C3 His Family Had an Accident and He Wanted to Go to Beijing

Jiegeng panted as she rushed to the wall outside her courtyard. She carefully moved the things in the small hole, pushed aside the weeds, and slipped into it.

When she rushed into the room, Jiegeng could not help but ask before she could see the person clearly. "Shao, how is it? Is the disguise alright?"

Unexpectedly, what entered his eyes was not Shao, but his grandfather's angry eyes.

"What is it? Finally willing to come back! I didn't even know that there was such a hidden dog hole in your courtyard. What? In order to get out, you're even willing to dig a dog hole?" Jiegeng's grandfather said to Jiegeng in a strange tone.

Not good. Every time, if her grandfather were to rage at her and cause trouble, it would be fine to end it. If her grandfather used this tone, it would prove that she could not escape this time.

Jiegeng glared at Shao and complained in her heart. This girl's mouth was not tight. Why did everything become more obvious to her grandfather? If that hole was exposed, how would she go out in the future?

"You don't need to stare at Shao. I can clearly see how you came back! Grandfather, although I am old, my eyes haven't bloomed yet." After saying that, Jiegeng's grandfather even snorted.

Jiegeng immediately lowered her head and thought of at least getting a good attitude.

"Why is there blood on your clothes? Where did you get hurt?" Jiegeng's grandfather glanced and saw the blood that Duan Shuang left on Jiegeng's body.

"No, no! I am not my blood." Jiegeng hurriedly explained. Her hands and hair shook together as she tried her best to separate them.

"Not your blood? Whose blood is it? Don't tell me it's a rabbit! " The beard on Jiegeng's grandfather's lips moved up and down again.

"That's right..." "It's because someone was injured. I splashed it when I bandaged him." Originally, there were all sorts of excuses in his mind, but now that the blood had been exposed, he could only tell the truth.

"Didn't I tell you not to touch medical skills? Why did you not change your ways!" Jiegeng's grandfather was furious and actually went forward to give Jiegeng a slap.

Jiegeng was stunned by the slap. In her memory, her grandfather had never hit her before. The intense pain made Jiegeng subconsciously cover her face with her hands. Her eyes were wooden as she looked at her grandfather. Tears flowed out of her eyes.

Jiegeng's grandfather was also stunned. His hand that had just hit Jiegeng was still trembling slightly. He was too angry. This only granddaughter of his was still in pain. How could she bear to hit her just like that?

"Ever since your parents passed away, I have warned you not to touch medical skills again. It doesn't matter if I have old bones, but you are the last root of our Bai family. If anything happens to you again, how am I going to explain it to your parents? " Jiegeng's grandfather fell onto a chair beside her, as if he was talking to Jiegeng. He seemed to be muttering to himself.

"Grandfather." Jiegeng knelt beside him and cried with a sobbing tone.

"You are the same as your parents. You are a kind person. Seeing others in pain, she wanted to pounce on them and save them. But why can't you understand grandpa's pain? I don't want to experience the grief of a white-haired person sending a black man away. Grandpa doesn't want you to promote the medical skills of our old Bai family, and I don't expect you to have any great achievements. I only hope that you can marry into a good family like an ordinary girl. Live a happy life. " Jiegeng's grandfather touched Jiegeng's head and sobbed. "It was precisely because I was worried that the Bai family's reputation would become a burden to you that I moved my family to this border. Don't walk the same path as the Bai family, just let me cut off all of these medical skills. Let me apologize to my ancestors. The name of Glory World's medical skill is our Bai family's life threatening talisman!"

Jiegeng had never heard her grandfather talk about this before, so she was shocked in her heart.

"Go to the ancestral hall and self-reflect for a month. Shao, find all of the medical books that the young lady hid and give them to me." After a long silence, Jiegeng's grandfather finally broke the silence.

" Grandfather! " Jiegeng shouted.

"Shao, if I find out that you are hiding something, I will send you to someone else." This sentence undoubtedly broke Jiegeng's last hope.

"Yes." Shao trembled and agreed, not daring to disobey.

In the middle of the night, Zhen'an King's good friend, Ouyang Lingfeng, rushed to the thatched hut.

Ouyang Lingfeng was also a famous young doctor in the capital.

Once he saw Duan Shuang, Ouyang Lingfeng checked his injuries again.

"Don't tell me you are injured like this. If it wasn't for the little girl you mentioned earlier, I wouldn't have helped you. I guess I will only be able to see your corpse when I come here." Ouyang Lingfeng smiled evilly. "Although her method of treating the wound is too crude." From the doctor's point of view, Ouyang Lingfeng did not forget to complain.

"Take a look at these medicines." Duan Shuang gave the medicinal pills that Jiegeng gave him and the remaining Golden Sore Medicine to Ouyang Lingfeng.

After Ouyang Lingfeng carefully examined them, he looked at him in surprise. "These medicines are all hers?"

Duan Shuang nodded.

"What is the background of this girl? These herbs were very similar to the ones from the Bai family. " Ouyang Lingfeng held these herbs as if he had just found a treasure.

"I have asked Anzhao to follow me to investigate." After he finished speaking, Anzhao returned.

"Master." Anzhao knelt down and greeted him.

"How is it? Did you find anything?" Zhen'an King put on his clothes.

"Master, that girl's grandfather was the Bai Qing who disappeared eight years ago." Anzhao returned respectfully.

"Bai Qing! It really is him. I didn't expect that the Bai family, a medical family that disappeared mysteriously eight years ago, would actually come to this border." Ouyang Lingfeng was overjoyed. The medical books and medical books passed down from generation to generation in the Bai family were priceless treasures.

"However, the Bai family is very strange right now." Anzhao continued to report what he saw. "Bai Qing did not allow Jiegeng to learn medicine. He even punished her to kneel in the ancestral hall for a month because she saved me tonight. He also wanted to confiscate all of her medical books."

"Maybe this has something to do with the plague in the capital eight years ago." Ouyang Lingfeng speculated. "The plague eight years ago was really strange. It swept across the entire city in an instant. No prescription had the slightest effect of suppressing it. However, after that, a prescription for the illness appeared in the air. Only then did it suppress the plague. It was not an exaggeration to say that if it was not for that prescription... The Great Yan Dynasty will be destroyed."

"Indeed. At that time, it was rumored that the prescription came from the palace. However, those people in the palace simply did not have the ability. Except for Bai Qing, imperial physician, who was given the title of the late emperor. However, during that period of time, Bai Qing had disappeared for no reason, and his son and daughter-in-law had all died from this plague. However, right after the prescription was born, his family had disappeared." Duan Shuang frowned. He couldn't help feeling suspicious. After all, that period of time was also when Imperial Brother was fighting for the throne.

"No matter what, you should go back first. I still want to have a good tour of the Bai family." Ouyang Lingfeng laughed. He didn't care about the military and political affairs of the country. In his heart, medicine was the most important. That year, this decision made his stubborn Prime Minister father extremely angry.

Half a month later, in Bai Mansion.

"Miss! Don't kneel, something big has happened." Shao hurriedly rushed into the ancestral hall and panted as she shouted at Jiegeng.

"What happened? If Grandfather finds out that you entered the ancestral hall privately and are still shouting in the ancestral hall... I'll definitely sell you to someone else!" Jiegeng panicked. This ancestral hall was the place that Grandfather valued the most. She could not tolerate any disrespect. Hence, she immediately bowed towards the ancestors' ranking.

"Miss, the Great Master has gone missing!" Shao was so anxious that she almost cried out.

"What? Missing? How could Grandpa be missing? Where's the housekeeper? " Only then did Jiegeng realize that something big had happened.

"The housekeeper just couldn't find Master for three days and just entered the pharmacy. Everything was in a mess. Only then did he realize that something might have happened to Old Master Tai. That's why he asked me to quickly look for the young lady. " Shao's agitated voice and tone became much faster.

"Let's go, let's go and take a look." Jiegeng left the ancestral hall.

The moment she rushed into the pharmacy, she knew that Shao's words were not false. The medicinal herbs were thrown all over the floor. The porcelain bottles that contained the medicinal pills were also shattered quite a bit. Many shelves had also come down. It could not be more appropriate to describe it as a mess.

The pharmacy was the family's restricted area. Except for Jiegeng who would occasionally sneak in. No one dared to enter. In the past, whenever Bai Qing entered the pharmacy, he would stay there for an entire day. Thus, the servants didn't care at first. It wasn't until three days had passed that Bai Qing's figure was still nowhere to be seen. Only then did they realize that something was wrong.

"Butler Liu, did anything unusual happen before grandfather disappeared?" Even if Jiegeng was extremely flustered at this moment, she could not show it. To her, when her grandfather was not around, she was the master of this family. She must bear the responsibility of this matter.

"The Great Master was very nervous a few days before he went missing. He often stayed in the study for an entire day without coming out." Housekeeper Liu answered truthfully. He was the old housekeeper who came from the capital with Bai Qing.

Jiegeng did not have time to care about the messy medicine. She decisively said, "Go to the study to take a look."

There was nothing unusual in the study room, which made Jiegeng very depressed.

Jiegeng sat paralyzed in front of the study desk and was at her wits' end.

"Miss, let's quickly report to the official." Butler Liu reminded from the side.

"Alright, that's all we can do now." Jiegeng said weakly.

After the officials came, they did not discover anything important and could only hastily withdraw their troops.

Grandfather's disappearance was too strange. Only the pharmacy had traces of disorder. Furthermore, no one saw him leave the house, which meant that... It could only be done by a martial arts expert. However, his grandfather was a medical practitioner. How could he offend a martial arts practitioner?

"Miss, let's eat something first. Ever since you entered this study in the morning, you never went out again, not to mention eating. If you don't even drink a mouthful of water, you won't be able to take it. " Shao's heart ached as she carried the meal to Jiegeng.

"I don't have an appetite and don't want to eat. Go out and don't disturb me. I want to be alone." Jiegeng did not even look and did not even see the dishes that Shao brought over and chased her out.

Grandfather stayed in the study all day. What was he doing?

Jiegeng could not figure it out.

Suddenly, an idea flashed across her head. "Oh right, there is a secret compartment in this study!"

This hidden compartment was discovered a few years ago when she was playing around in the study. There was a locked box inside. At that time, Jiegeng was worried that her grandfather would find out that she was rummaging through his things. After everything returned to its original position, she hurriedly ran out of the study. After a period of time, she also forgot about this secret compartment.

Jiegeng pressed on her memory from a few years ago and opened the secret compartment. She took out a locked box from inside. Intuition told her that her grandfather's disappearance this time must have something to do with this box.

Without saying a word, Jiegeng smashed open the lock of the box.

There was a medical skill book and a jade pendant inside.

The medical book had the words "Bai's Medical Scripture" written on it. The jade pendant was made of suet jade.

This time, Jiegeng did not spend her energy on the medical book, but the jade pendant.

Jiegeng hurriedly put the medical book and jade pendant into her arms and put the box back into the secret compartment. After returning to the original position, she hurriedly returned to her room. She took out the jade pendant from the closet and compared it with the jade pendant in her arms. Except for the words in the middle, it was different. The shape and pattern of the entire jade pendant were actually the same!

The jade pendant in the locker was given to her by Duan Shuang half a month ago.

Now, Jiegeng was even more confused. The jade pendant being the same did not mean that he was related to this matter. After all, whether the things in this box were related to her grandfather's disappearance was still a mystery.

Putting the jade pendant aside, Jiegeng opened the "Bai's Medical Scripture" book. It recorded all kinds of strange and unheard of illnesses and treatment methods. There were also some medicinal herbs that she had never seen in any books. If those people were here for this medical book, then... Those people didn't get this book right now, Grandpa must be safe. If this book was discovered by those people, then Grandpa would be in danger!

Subconsciously, Jiegeng forced herself to memorize this book for the next few days. Even though she did not understand the contents of the book. After memorizing it, Jiegeng wrapped the book with leather. She hid it in the crevice of the wall behind the closet in her room.

Now, the only thing she could do was to go to the capital to find Duan Shuang. After all, a person who could be found in any government office must have a high official position. If it was really a person from the martial arts world, she could only seek help from the authorities with greater authority. Regardless of whether this matter was related to him or not, this time... We'll have to confront him face to face.
