Chapter 584: Being Blocked at the Door
Chu Xiaomu said goodbye to the two of them and hurried out of the pine and bamboo garden.
Returning to the streets of Jinyang City, thinking of what Xuanying had said to him, he suddenly felt that he might be right. If he could really join forces with him, with the army of Jinyang City and the general's Bicheng Army, he might be able to drive the Red Soldiers, who everyone fears, out of Cangmu Country.
Although he, the commander of the Nanding Army, did not have the support of several battalion officers, he was still a member of the Bicheng Army. The general had been testing him secretly, and Jinglan's father Zhou Zhongjun had high expectations of him. If she really agreed to Xuanying's request and conspired with him in Jinyang City, how could she live up to the general and Zhou Zhongjun, and how could she live up to the five words of the Bicheng Army, "loyalty, loyalty, determination, success and respect"?
At the same time, he thought that for more than a month, Jinglan and he had been acting under the fake identity of Lin Qinglinyuan from Qingyuan. It was indeed quite inconvenient. Just changing our appearance every day was very laborious. Now the matter of raising food and grass for Bicheng had been completed, Xiao Zhenrong was dead, Jin Lier had recognized him, and it didn't matter if Chang Lun and Jin Dao Hei Jian recognized him.
Anyway, he didn't want to be the Golden Captain of the "Qingyu Army" anymore, so he might as well show his true face to the world from now on. Just like Xuanying said, Golden Captain Lin Yuan was dead.
Thinking of this, he peeled off the mask on his face, and with a pinch of his hands, the Force spread everywhere, and the mask turned into powder and disappeared without a trace.
He was walking aimlessly with all sorts of random thoughts in his mind. Suddenly, he saw a lot of people gathered at the corner of a tall house in front of him, pointing and talking in low voices at a white notice on the wall.
Chu Xiaomu hurried over and squeezed through a few people to take a look. The notice seemed very simple, but the content surprised him. It turned out that it said: The city lord declares that my daughter Jin Lier has been injured by an evil spirit and is in a critical condition. Anyone who has a spiritual doctor who can cure her will be rewarded handsomely!
Xuanying said Jin Lier's life was in danger, and he was right. He called me to the Pine and Bamboo Garden to discuss important matters, but he didn't expect it was to stop me from saving her. However, Jin Lier played an extremely important role in the upcoming Seven Cities Conference, so how could I not save her?
I thought that Jin Li'er was an important figure in hosting the Seven Cities Conference, and her injury should be kept secret. But this Jin City Lord actually posted a notice in the city that his daughter was seriously injured, fearing that others would not know. What if this news spread to Chi Bing? !
Seeing the eye-catching black words on a piece of white paper on the yellow wall, Chu Xiaomu could no longer hold back. He squeezed through the crowd and peeled off the edict.
A soldier who posted the edict saw that it was a young man in his thirties. He looked him up and down, and seemed to be a little unconvinced that this young man could cure Jin Lier's strange injury. He said, "This is an edict issued by the Lord of Jin City himself. It is not something to be joked about! Several famous doctors in Jinyang City have been imprisoned in the underground prison of Tiankun Castle. Don't be idle and make trouble here!"
Chu Xiaomu frowned and said, "Take me into Tiankun Castle. If I can't cure Miss Jin's injury, you can throw me into jail."
Seeing that Chu Xiaomu spoke seriously, the soldier did not dare to neglect him. He called another soldier, took the horse, and led Chu Xiaomu hurriedly towards the direction of Tiankun Castle on the west side of the city.
The place where the notice was posted was far away from Tiankun Castle. Two soldiers rode on one horse, and Chu Xiaomu rode alone. The horses trotted all the way, and it took almost an incense stick of time to reach the gate of the castle.
There were still more than twenty feet away from the castle gate when he suddenly saw a tall and thin man in black clothes and with long hair standing in front of the gate.
Xuanying has arrived.
He obviously came to stop Chu Xiaomu and not allow him to go in to treat Jin Lier.
Chu Xiaomu's heart couldn't help but beat fast. He thought to himself, this Xuan Ying is really bold and reckless. Are you going to fight me at the gate of Tiankun Castle? !
Xuan Ying stared at Chu Xiaomu with cold eyes, like two strange lights in an endless abyss.
When the two soldiers who led Chu Xiaomu saw Xuanying, they hurriedly jumped off their horses, saluted him, and called him "General Xuan".
Xuanying asked coldly: "Why did you bring this man here?"
One of the soldiers quickly replied: "General Xuan, this man received the city lord's order in the East Market. We will take him to see the city lord."
"If you bring a swindler in, I will kill you!"
The two soldiers immediately panicked and stammered, "General, we...we dare not bring a liar in..."
"Then drive him away!"
Chu Xiaomu was furious and said, "If I can't cure Miss Jin's injury, I am willing to pay with my own life and never implicate anyone else!"
Xuan Ying snorted and said, "There are many boastful and cunning scoundrels in Jinyang City. Get him out of here!"
The two soldiers immediately changed into a ferocious look, grabbed Chu Xiaomu and shouted, "Damn it, you actually dared to trick yourself into coming to Tiankun Castle, just follow us and go to the Criminal Investigation Office!"
Chu Xiaomu exerted a little force with his feet, and he was like a big rock on the ground. The two soldiers could not push him at all.
