Chapter 10: Suppressing Demons
By the time Wang Cheng woke up, it was already four o'clock in the afternoon.
He and Liu Fei were originally sleeping on the haystack, but they were transferred to the bed in a private room by someone.
When he woke up and saw this situation, he was stunned for a moment, and immediately got up, got out of bed and walked out of the room.
"You are awake, Master Wang, Chief Du has explained that if Master Wang and Master Liu are awake, there is no need to rush to see him. After he blew the whistle and issued a convening order, he can just go over and meet him."
"In addition, Captain Du also ordered that you should bring it to you whether you want to eat or drink when you wake up."
Outside the room, a villager guarding here saw Wang Cheng pushing out the door and immediately said what he wanted to know with a smile on his face.
Seeing this, Wang Cheng pondered for a moment, then nodded slightly to the country man in front of him and said, "I understand, so please give this elder brother some hot food and hot water to our brothers, and then help us find a clean dress."
"The little one understands, the little one will do it now."
Seeing the country man walking out of the yard, Wang Cheng returned to the room, poured a glass of water from the pottery kettle on the table and drank it. Then he looked at Liu Fei who was still sleeping. After thinking about it, he was not in a hurry to wake him up.
He saw him concentrate a little and summoned the merit book.
Name: Wang Cheng
Age: 16
Realm: Qi and Blood Realm
Martial Arts: "Tiger Fist" (Introduction, 0.1%)
Merit value: 75
"Sure enough, I didn't read it wrong in the morning. The number [] behind "Tiger Fist" did not appear."
"This is definitely not because my merit value is not enough. After all, it was only costing 5 points of merit value once before, even if it is ten times more, it is enough!"
"There is only one reason. My basic practice of the seventeenth style of "Tiger Boxing" can only allow me to practice to the point where my qi and blood boil. Only by obtaining the supporting fundamental picture practice method can I continue to improve my martial arts cultivation."
Wang Cheng waved his hand thoughtfully to disperse the silver book, and he gained a new understanding of the role of this book of merit.
Although this thing is mysterious and has extraordinary functions, it is obviously not omnipotent.
It can only improve his martial arts cultivation as the host under existing conditions, and cannot create something out of nothing, allowing his cultivation to be infinitely higher.
For example, Wang Cheng does not understand the method of practicing Taoism now. No matter how much his merit is, the merit book cannot make him a Taoist practitioner and perform magic.
For example, now, without the guidance and reference of more advanced martial arts techniques, the merit book cannot continue to improve his martial arts cultivation.
Now he has to explore and explore these things step by step by step.
Maybe one day he is strong enough to fully understand the role and origin of this merit book.
Thinking about this, Wang Cheng no longer paid attention to the matter of the Book of Merits. He walked to the bed and reached out to block Liu Fei's nose, preparing to wake the kid up.
Very hot!
As soon as Wang Cheng's hand touched Liu Fei's nose, he was so hot that he was taken back by the hot temperature on Liu Fei's face and the heat exhaled from his nose.
His face suddenly changed, and he immediately realized that Liu Fei was in the rain last night and was caused by the cold and yin energy entering his body, causing a high fever.
"A common method is of no use for this kind of high fever. You must immediately ask a doctor to prescribe medicine for him!"
Thinking of this, Wang Cheng immediately rushed out of the yard and went to find the official in the yard without hesitation.
As a town with a population of thousands, Dasang Township naturally has doctors in the village for consultation.
This kind of medical skills of the local doctor may not be very good, but common diseases such as wind and cold fever must know how to use medicine.
Wang Cheng went out less than two quarters of an hour before returning to his residence with a middle-aged doctor carrying a medicine box.
"This Liu Daoye has a severe high fever. His medical skills are limited. He can only prescribe some drugs to clear heat and detoxify to suppress his condition. If he really wants to cure him, he has to go to Chunhetang in the county to ask a famous doctor for treatment!"
In the room, the middle-aged doctor took back his hand that was taking Liu Fei's pulse, turned around and shook his head slightly at Wang Cheng, who was full of concern, and said something that made Wang Cheng very disappointed.
Although he didn't have much hope for such a rural doctor, he still couldn't hide his disappointment when he heard this.
"Cough cough, the medicine has been brought here. It's here. Wang Kuye asked someone to decoct for two quarters of an hour before taking the medicine soup to the patient."
The middle-aged doctor coughed twice with an unnatural expression. After putting down a pack of herbs wrapped in hard paper, he hurriedly left the room.
Judging from this situation, he probably knew what he could do before he came. The pulse he had just taken was just a gesture.
Seeing this, Wang Cheng had no choice but to shake his head helplessly and said to the villagers who had brought people to bring hot food and hot water outside the door: "This elder brother has also heard the doctor's words just now. Please help me decoct this bag of medicine. Wang will go to see Captain Du first."
"Yes, yes, the younger ones will definitely do this."
The villager nodded and quickly put down the two dry clothes he was holding to get the medicine and decoct it.
The place where Captain Du lives is in the large mansion of Lizheng's family, and he lives in a high-quality guest room.
When Wang Cheng came, Captain Du had already gotten up.
After hearing him explaining Liu Fei's situation, Captain Du immediately said: "Send Liu Fei to the county town to see the doctor's affairs. This Captain will arrange for other people to do it. Now the Tiqi of the Demon Suppressing Division is coming, but there are not many people under this Captain who can call him. Wang Cheng, you can't leave at this time."
"But Liu Fei..."
Wang Cheng wanted to say that Liu Fei was in serious condition and he was worried that others would send him off.
But before he finished speaking, Captain Du suddenly made a sound and interrupted his words.
"Liu Fei is just a cold and high fever. The doctors in Chunhetang, the county town, won't be able to cure this minor illness. You can't help with anything you can do. Don't forget your identity and responsibilities!"
Speaking of this, what else can Wang Cheng say?
"Yes, my subordinates obey the order."
He bowed helplessly and turned away from the room.
Half an hour later, Wang Cheng watched with his own eyes several ox carts pulling Liu Fei and the constable who died last night, and the yamen runners' bodies slowly sail towards Dantu County.
Only then did he realize that after the battle last night, only four of the ten Qingyi constables who came alive from Xiao Chen Village eventually survived, including him and Liu Fei.
At that time, only five of the twelve "white soldiers" who survived by chance survived.
It’s no wonder that Captain Du didn’t allow him to escort Liu Fei back to the county town without any favors.
Not long after seeing Liu Fei off, a rapid sound of horse hooves sounded from the streets of Dasang Township.
At that time, Wang Chao had just finished his meal and was visiting them in the yard where his master Li Tong and his two senior brothers were resting, talking about the battle last night. The main reason was that he wanted to inquire about the "evil-killing talisman" used by Li Tong last night and the information of the Taoist practitioners.
After hearing the rapid sound of horse hooves, the four of them suddenly realized something and hurriedly climbed to the roof and looked towards the direction of the village fort.
I saw that on the not-wide street of Dasang Township, eighteen horses with black fur, carrying eighteen knights in black armor were galloping past the street, and they stopped at the gate of the town fort at the end of the street.
"I am the devil-suppressing captain Duan Yanqing, who is the head of Dantu County Du Chun?"
On the back of an ink-black war horse on his head, a ferocious man with a long scar on his right face slowly raised his eyes to the staff who came out to check after hearing the movement in the castle. His eyes were as sharp as lightning, and the stabbing people dared not look at him.
"The humble official is Du Chun, the captain of Dantu County, and Du met with Lord Duan of the Demon Suppressing Department."
Outside the village fort, Captain Du, who had rushed over from the Lizheng house, quickly rushed to the horse of the Demon Suppressing Division who was asking about it, and clasped his fists and bowed to reveal his identity.
Seeing this, the captain Duan couldn't help but squint his eyes and glance at the captain's captain's uniform on Captain Du's body, and then said coldly: "You are the captain, why are there no constable following behind you? When I arrived in Dantu County, the county magistrate said that there were twenty-five constables and fifty yamen runners coming here with you."
When Captain Du heard this, his expression changed slightly, then lowered his head slightly, and replied respectfully: "Mr. Duan has a clear understanding. There is another reason for this. I have a long story. Please get off the horse and rest first, and Du will slowly tell the man."
"dismount."
The captain Duan looked at Captain Du for a while and waved his hand.
