Chu Qingzhi flew down from the mountain peak and asked with a smile, “Who exactly are you? Who is he? Why are you chasing him?”
Tang Jinghong suddenly felt that Chu Qingzhi was unfathomable. He sized her up. She was just a skinny girl. Other than her bright eyes, there was nothing special about her. However, the more ordinary she was, the more extraordinary she seemed.
Instead of answering, he asked, “Do you know martial arts?”
Chu Qingzhi was carefree and did not care if her secret was discovered. At most, she would find another body to possess “Don’t you also know martial arts?”
Tang Jinghong’s eyes darkened. “Thank you for helping me catch this mole.”
Chu Qingzhi sized up the person who had fallen to the ground. “He’s a mole?”
“Yes.” Tang Jinghong turned the person over and took out a folded piece of paper from the mole’s pocket. Then, he put it into his pocket.
Chu Qingzhi crossed her arms and looked at the man in front of her. “Are you from the army?”
Tang Jinghong paused. “How did you know?”
Chu Qingzhi leaned against a tree with a relaxed expression. “Tell me the truth. Otherwise, I’ll snatch it.”
Tang Jinghong said, “I’m indeed from the army, but I’m also from this village. It’s just that my identity in the army is sensitive, so I didn’t reveal it. I came home mainly to recuperate…”
After he finished speaking, he suddenly covered his chest with his hand. His face turned pale and he broke out in cold sweat. He knelt on one knee.
Chu Qingzhi stood up and looked at Tang Jinghong. She asked, “Did your old illness relapse?”
Tang Jinghong gritted his teeth and endured the pain. “Didn’t you say before that my illness was caused by overwork? With my family’s situation, not to mention recuperating, I don’t even have time to rest. My illness is getting worse and worse.”
Chu Qingzhi nodded in agreement. She walked towards Tang Jinghong and slapped his back. Tang Jinghong immediately spat out a mouthful of blood.
Chu Qingzhi explained, “Don’t misunderstand. This is to help you clear your blood. Only then will you feel better.”
Tang Jinghong quickly felt that his heart was no longer in pain. “Your… medical skills are not bad.”
Chu Qingzhi quickly said, “Don’t be in a hurry to praise me. Your body is in bad condition. It’s not easy for it to return to normal.”
Tang Jinghong said, “Then can I trouble you to see what exactly is going on with my body?”
Chu Qingzhi walked over. “Give me your hand. I’ll take your pulse.”
Tang Jinghong stretched out his hand cooperatively.
Suddenly, the man in black on the ground moved. Then, Chu Qingzhi and Tang Jinghong knocked him out at the same time.
Chu Qingzhi felt a little awkward. She coughed and said, “Come to my house tomorrow to get the prescription. I don’t have a pen and paper now.” After saying that, she jumped up and flew back to the mountain.
Tang Jinghong looked at Chu Qingzhi’s graceful figure. “I’m afraid her qinggong exceeds mine.”
He reached out and grabbed the man in black before heading in the opposite direction.
Chu Qingzhi sat down cross-legged and leaned against the white tiger. She adjusted her position and looked at the full moon in the sky in a daze.
…
In the camp at the outskirts of the capital.
When the guard saw Tang Jinghong return with someone, he quickly went forward. “General, you’re back.”
Tang Jinghong threw the man in black to the guard. “Watch him closely. Also, tell Dr. Fang that I’m looking for him.”
The guard replied respectfully, “Yes, General.”
Tang Jinghong returned to the tent and took out the paper he found from the man in black. He unfolded it and looked at it. “As expected, it’s a map of the distribution of the army in the capital.”
What did anyone want this for?
This thing would only be used when attacking the capital. Although the world was not particularly peaceful now, it was still a long way before a war would break out.
Tang Jinghong frowned slightly, puzzled.
After a while, footsteps were heard at the entrance of the tent. Fang Zerong’s voice was heard. “General.”
Tang Jinghong put away the map. “Come in.”
Fang Zerong lifted the curtain and walked in. “General, what is the matter?”
Tang Jinghong stretched out his hand. “Take my pulse.”
Fang Zerong immediately looked worried. “Has your old illness relapsed?”
Tang Jinghong didn’t know whether to laugh or cry as he said, “It did just now, but someone cured me with a slap on my back.
Fang Zerong was frightened and immediately went forward to check. At the same time, he muttered in his heart, “Who dares to hit the general?”
After taking his pulse, Fang Zerong was surprised. “General, is the other party a divine doctor?”
