The more people they met, the more they liked dogs.
It was not because dogs were smart or considerate.
It was because dogs were very pure!
Pain was pain. Hunger was hunger. They would wag their tails when they were close to you, and bare their teeth when they were unfamiliar.
People were not like that.
People's hearts were unpredictable.
They could not see through, guess, or understand.
The three puppies were drinking milk together. One was brown, one was black, and the other was white. Their fur colors were different.
Zhu Biqiong looked at them for a while and said with a smile, "It's not easy to find their father."
The black dog and the brown dog started to fight, probably because they were full.
The two puppies were entangled together. The black dog was at a disadvantage and kept whining. They probably wanted the big white dog to teach them a lesson, but the big white dog just turned its head lazily to the side and looked into the distance.
The white puppy jumped a few times on the side. Seeing that no one was paying attention to it, it was bored and lay down.
After whining for a while, the brown dog pressed the black dog under its body. At this time, the black dog stopped whining.
This was the way to announce the winner between puppies. The brown puppy was the winner, and the black puppy surrendered.
The upright Jiang Wang couldn't stand it and poked it with a righteous foot, "Don't bully your brother!"
The brown puppy was easily overturned. It lay on the ground with its four limbs facing the sky. Its eyes were wide open and looked very confused. The black puppy, on the other hand, was heartless. It happily licked its paws.
The big white dog stood up and growled threateningly at Jiang Wang.
Jiang Wang fled with Zhu Biqiong and Dugu Xiao.
…
"I thought you hated dogs!" Zhu Biqiong looked at Jiang Wang with her almond-shaped eyes and a smile on her lips.
She was very happy to see Jiang Wang being chased around by the protective big white dog. It could relieve her a lot of grievances of being treated as a coolie.
"I have no reason to hate dogs, as long as they don't eat human flesh."
He didn't hide his love, but in front of the bottom line, all his love had to give way.
Hu Laogen was now the Town Constable, but he didn't build a new house for himself. He still lived in the old house with his wife, who was said to be very fierce.
This also made him more trusted by the people of Qingyang Town.
Seeing Jiang Wang come to the door, he hurriedly asked his wife to make tea. He also wiped the chair with his sleeve and invited the master cultivator to take a seat.
His wife was also submissive at this moment. She didn't look fierce at all.
Jiang Wang casually looked around the room and felt that the environment was okay. It was not shabby, so he asked casually, "This month will be over soon. Is there anything going on in town?"
"Zhuang Zhi really has something to tell me. I was just about to go to the mine to report to you." The new Village Constable Hu said nervously, "Two people have died in our town recently!"
"What is the reason? Who did this? Do you need me to ask Xiang Qian to investigate? "Jiang Wang looked up at Zhu Biqiong and said," Bamboo Heroine might be able to do the same. "
"What do you mean maybe?" Zhu Biqiong jumped up. "If this lady makes a move, wouldn't it be easy to capture him?"
Xiao Xiao looked at Zhu Biqiong enviously. She envied Zhu Biqiong's irreplaceable value. In this small world, there was a very clear value system. Depending on her past, it would affect her life.
"I just don't know." Hu Laogen said with a bitter face, "These two people died of the same illness."
"What did the doctor say?" Zhu Biqiong naturally entered the state of solving the case. But as soon as she opened her mouth, she showed her unprofessionalism.
There were no proper doctors in Qingyang Town. Those few doctors could only treat people who were dizzy and feverish. They probably couldn't even find the cause of this kind of illness.
Jiang Wang suddenly sat up straight. His family ran a pharmacy since he was a child, so he was very sensitive to diseases.
"What are the symptoms?"
"They all have a high fever, pus and blood …" Hu Laogen was a little sad. "They are all good young people."
"Are they a family?"
"No, one in the north and one in the south. I don't know them."
Although he couldn't tell what it was, there were two similar cases of this kind of illness, which meant that it was possible to be contagious.
Jiang Wang asked, "Where are they?"
"Buried, buried."
It was unrealistic to expect this little old man to explain the illness clearly.
Jiang Wang straightforwardly asked, "What do they have in common?"
Hu Laogen was a little confused. "What do they have in common?"
Xiao Xiao interrupted, "Where have they been recently?"
"Ah, they went to the city!"
For the people of this land, entering the city naturally meant going to Jia City.
Jiang Wang immediately stood up and said, "I'm going to Jia City right now."
First, he had to figure out whether the illness came from Jia City. Second, that Xi Zichu came from the East King Valley and was an expert in medicine. Moreover, as a member of the Xi Family, it was only right for him to contribute to the people of Jia City.
"Xiao Xiao. You stay here with Hu Laogen and isolate everyone who came in contact with the deceased. If there are any obstacles, let your Big Sister Zhu take care of it for you. "
Xiao Xiao was better at handling specific matters. Although Zhu Biqiong was an exceptional cultivator, she couldn't compare to Xiao Xiao in the ways of the world.
When she was young, she had heard her father talk about many terrifying cases. She had also seen many families ruined by serious illnesses. She knew that diseases were fiercer than tigers.
In Qingyang Town, there were tens of thousands of people in the town and village. Jiang Wang didn't dare to be negligent. He immediately arranged matters and went to Jia City alone.
… …
Recently, Xi Zichu's eyelids were twitching violently. Early on, when he was setting up the Hu Mine, he felt that his family was hiding something from him. However, since his father didn't say anything, he didn't ask.
After all, Xi Munan was the lord of Jia City.
He was the future of the Xi Family, that was true. However, if he tried to control the present, he would be overstepping his authority.
This was also the reason why Advisor Liu had been purposely keeping a distance from him.
The streets were crowded with horses and carriages, bustling with noise and prosperity.
The Xi Family was doing well in Jia City. However, those who had long-term ambitions wouldn't allow themselves to be too eager for quick success.
Rest the people and build up their reputation.
Xi Zichu was willing to take out a large sum of compensation to mend his relationship with the Junggenjia because of this reason.
After changing his makeup and wrapping himself in a large robe, Xi Zichu wandered around his family's city.
With his reputation in the city, if he didn't do this, he wouldn't be able to go out.
The failure at the Hu Mine was a blow to his head, smashing his arrogance to pieces.
He realized that not only Jiang Wang, even Hu Shaomeng, who he had always suppressed, might not lose to him.
He had suppressed Hu Shaomeng with the help of the Xi Family. And Jiang Wang had draped the Junggenjia's "influence" over his body like a coat, never leaving.
However, compared to the failure of the treasure auction, what he couldn't accept the most was his father's words: "You have disappointed me."
Outsiders didn't know, but he remembered that he grew up under criticism and attacks.
Since he was young, he had never received a word of praise from his father. Even though he studied politics, cultivated hard, and studied medicine … he strived to be the best in everything.
Even though with the combination of medicinal fragrance and propaganda, all the women of the right age in Jia City flocked to him, not to mention the flattery of his subordinates.
However, he never received his father's approval. He was always disappointed.
Now that he was in the Soaring Dragon Realm, he was confident that he could surpass his father in five years and become an inner palace official. Perhaps only then would his father be satisfied?
"You have disappointed me."
However, this sentence still lingered in his ears.
It was as if a nail had nailed all of his light and airy pride to death.
