Everyone turned their heads around.
The head of the Fu family did not come. Instead, it was one of Fu Chen's uncles.
When he looked over, his eyes widened, and his legs began to tremble.
Fu Xi didn't wear anything like a mask, so his face was exposed to everyone's line of sight.
However, no one had seen Fu Xi before.
Fu Chen's uncle had only seen a portrait.
The impact of seeing the real person in front of him was too great.
In the next second, he knelt on the ground with a thud.
Fu Chen saw the girl and instinctively opened his mouth. "Mas —"
Ying Zijin glanced at him.
Fu Chen swallowed his words in time.
The others did not know Fu Xi, but they knew Fu Chen.
The deputy leader said, "Gongzi Fu Chen, this is?"
"Old, Old Ancestor." Fu Chen's uncle finally caught his breath. He trembled as he said, "Old Ancestor, why, why are you here?"
If he had known earlier, he would not have come to the meeting. His heart was not good to begin with.
He was scared out of his wits.
"It's related to the evil doctor. Of course I have to come." Fu Xi glanced at him indifferently. "That's the corpse?"
The entire hall was silent.
Everyone was shocked.
Old Ancestor of the Fu family?
Wasn't the Old Ancestor of the Fu family Fu Xi, the person who founded the Fu family?!
Lord Meng's expression changed instantly.
Family Meng's Old Ancestor did not live as long as Fu Xi. The one who founded the family had died long ago.
Family Meng could not compare to the Fu family in this aspect.
"Senior Fu Xi, it's not that we didn't invite you, but we shouldn't bother you with such trivial matters." The deputy leader wiped his sweat. "You've been living in seclusion all this time. Where would you find the time to pay attention to such trivial matters?"
Fu Xi only said, "I'll do the autopsy myself."
No one dared to move.
The ancient doctor in charge of the autopsy trembled as he handed over the disinfected silver needles.
A minute later, Fu Xi put down the silver needles and said indifferently, "The pill he took can detoxify the poison, but his emotions fluctuated too much and he did not have time to suppress the effects of the pill. Coupled with his chaotic internal energy, his heart meridians ruptured."
Hall Master Li: "…"
Did he really hit the nail on the head? Did he really die out of excitement?
What a strange way to die.
Fu Xi sighed softly.
His master was still his master.
The Xu Family Head had indeed died from the rupture of his heart meridians, and the medicine was indeed nourishing.
However, if one of the herbs was a little less, it would not be able to achieve this effect.
Elder Four's expression froze. "Is it really a tonic?"
"Evil doctors must be eradicated by the ancient medical community, but no one can be slandered." Fu Xi's voice turned cold. "Aren't you digging your own grave by beating up the geniuses of the ancient medical world into evil doctors?"
Lord Meng's face turned red, and he had no choice but to lower his head. "You're right, senior."
Fu Xi said coldly, "Since you're not an evil doctor, apologize to her now."
With Fu Xi's words, how could the others sit still?
Everyone, including Lord Meng, apologized to Ying Zijin.
The Meng Family's Patriarch took a deep breath. He felt suffocated.
Who would have thought that Fu Xi would actually interfere?
Fu Xi stared at these people and apologized before leaving.
The hall was soon empty.
Only Elder Four was still sitting in his original position, muttering, "Not an evil doctor, gone again. Hahahaha, gone again!"
After laughing wildly, he was in a daze again. He sat on the stone steps and stared blankly at the sky.
The light in his eyes was extinguished bit by bit.
Fu Chen was surprised. "What's wrong with him? Has he gone crazy? "
"No, he's not crazy. He's just too miserable." Hall Master Li waved his hand. "You don't know, but his family members were all killed by the evil doctors. The bones that were found in the end were incomplete."
Ying Zijin narrowed her eyes. "Were they captured to refine medicine?"
The only evil doctor she had seen was Shi Fengyi.
Shi Fengyi liked to refine medicine that affected people's nerves.
However, she was not the only kind of evil doctor.
"Who knows? Because we can't find anything. " Hall Master Li sighed and said, "That was a long time ago. It was twenty years ago when he was just promoted to an elder. After he had real power, he prepared to bring his son and daughter-in-law over from his hometown."
"His daughter-in-law gave birth to a pair of twins. At that time, his grandson and granddaughter were already three years old. They were quite talented and already knew how to identify medicinal herbs."
Hall Master Li continued, "Miss Ying, you know that Danmeng was founded two hundred and twenty-three years ago. It's not easy to be promoted to an elder."
Ying Zijin nodded. "Yes, I know."
An elder in Danmeng had to be a seventh-grade member, but a seventh-grade member might not necessarily be able to become an elder.
To be promoted to an elder, one had to pass many tests.
However, becoming an elder in Danmeng meant that one had a stable position in the ancient medicine world.
"The ancient medicine world is different from the ancient martial arts world. You can't kill each other. After all, most ancient doctors are physically weak. Even if they are physically strong, they are still ordinary people. At most, they have self-defense skills, so the ancient medicine world is relatively safer." Hall Master Li continued, "Their house is not far from the Danmeng General Administration. It's only half a day's journey. Who would have thought that such a cruel thing would happen on the way?"
When the fourth elder realized that something was wrong, he rushed over but found that there was no one at home.
The bones were only found a month later.
The scene was too horrible to look at.
Those evil doctors were so cruel that they didn't even let the children go.
The fourth elder broke down at that time.
After twenty years, he still couldn't find the culprit.
"He has been tracking down the evil doctors all these years." Hall Master Li shook his head. "He doesn't want to let go of even the slightest trace. Previously, he thought that you were an evil doctor and wanted to use you to find the entire evil doctor faction."
Ying Zijin said calmly, "It's human nature. I can understand."
"Miss Ying, you shouldn't have known about the existence of the evil doctors. It's inevitable that it would cause panic." Hall Master Li's expression became serious. "But now that you know, you must be careful. A genius like you is also a target that the evil doctors want to kill."
Ying Zijin frowned slightly.
She was now certain that the fake number one poison master that Rita Bevan had found was an evil doctor.
At this time, the Fourth Elder walked in. His eyes were still red. "Miss Ying, I've offended you just now. I heard from this kid that you need medicinal herbs. I'll give you my share. Anyway …"
He didn't need it anymore.
"No need. I don't need it." Ying Zijin looked up and glanced at him. "You're depressed and your liver is damaged. If you have time, take some medicine to relieve your depression."
The fourth elder was stunned. "Miss Ying, you …"
Ying Zijin took a sip of tea. "I know a little about physiognomy."
"Oh, oh." The fourth elder nodded. "No wonder."
Ancient doctors looked, listened, asked, and felt the pulse. Basically, they knew a little about physiognomy.
This kind of physiognomy was different from fortune-telling.
They could tell which part of the patient was sick based on their physiognomy.
After all, many diseases could be seen on the face, even if it was just a pimple on the chin.
**
On the other side.
Family Meng.
Meng Qingxue was stunned after hearing what had happened. "The Fu family's ancestor? She's Senior Fu Xi's disciple? "
Otherwise, why would Fu Xi come out?
Meng Qingxue clenched her fists.
If she was Fu Xi's disciple, no one of the same age could compare to Ying Zijin.
Even Fu Chen's seniority was much lower.
Lord Meng laughed. "Qingxue, you're thinking too much. What kind of person is the Fu family's ancestor? How many years has she been in seclusion? Only Fu Chen received her guidance. "
"How old is Ying Zijin? She's almost nineteen, and she's a distant relative of a small ancient martial arts family in the Ye family. She's not even close to the Fu family. "
Meng Qingxue frowned. "But —"
"The Fu family's ancestor came out today because she heard about the evil doctor from Fu Chen." Lord Meng shook his head. "Everyone knows how much the Fu family's ancestor hates the evil doctor. After all, she also had a disciple who died at the hands of the evil doctor."
"The evil doctor that the Ling family sent to the Fu family last time, didn't Fu Xi come out too?"
"In addition, this Ying Zijin is indeed very talented in alchemy. Although the Fu family's ancestor hates the evil doctor, she can't let a genius alchemy be slandered as an evil doctor. She's kind, and it's just on the way. Don't think too much."
Meng Qingxue's heart relaxed a little.
"But from today onwards, her position in the ancient medicine world is basically set." Lord Meng continued, "Although she can't compare to you and Fu Chen, she can indeed squeeze into the top circle."
The Meng Clan's Lord was talking when he suddenly recalled something that had happened during the meeting. He was left dumbfounded.
This Ying Zijin seemed to know acupuncture?
Otherwise, how could she know about autopsies?
His expression changed, and his eyes darkened.
**
Before the New Year, there was a winter hunt in the ancient medicine world.
Only the three top families, as well as the core members of the Tian Yi Men and Danmeng, were invited.
When Ying Zijin received the invitation, she also received a WeChat message from Fu Chen.
Fish-Catching Sleep: Grandmaster, they sent you an invitation too, right? Are you coming?
Fish-Catching Sleep: If you're coming, I'll go too. It's not like I can't sleep at the hunting ground. Grandmaster, you're simply too amazing. Even if I'm sleeping, my inner strength can really increase!
This was simply good news for Fu Chen.
Ying Zijin raised her eyebrows.
Although she was the one who brought ancient martial arts to Earth, before ancient martial arts, there were martial arts in ancient Hua Empire. Qinggong and acupoint sealing also existed.
However, this kind of martial arts couldn't develop the human body's potential, so it couldn't extend one's lifespan or allow one to surpass the speed and strength of ordinary people.
She used the cultivation methods of the spiritual cultivation world, combined the actual conditions of Earth, and added ancient martial arts, and finally integrated them.
This method of cultivating inner strength while sleeping was something she learned from her good friend. She just changed it into an ancient martial arts secret book.
Ying Zijin: Go, have some fun.
Every inch of land in the capital is worth an inch of gold, and there isn't such a large piece of land for horses to race.
Fu Yunshen picked up the invitation on the table and raised his eyebrows: "You like horses?"
"It's okay." Ying Zijin thought for a moment. "As long as I don't ride it myself."
When one's ancient martial arts cultivation reached the level of 50 years and above, they could use inner strength to lift their body and "float" away. It was much faster than the qinggong in wuxia dramas.
Therefore, for ancient martial artists, even if it was a long journey, walking was much easier than riding a horse.
In the ancient martial arts world, only children knew how to ride horses.
However, the ancient medicine world was different. Ancient doctors basically couldn't cultivate ancient martial arts, so the aristocratic families would let their family members train in horsemanship, archery, and other sports to strengthen the body from a young age.
"Okay, I'll take you to ride." Fu Yunshen touched her head and chuckled. "Just in time. During the winter hunt, let Yunshan catch a few birds and roast them for you to eat."
The air quality in the ancient medicine world was high, and the meat quality of the animals raised was also better.
She really liked to eat.
Ying Zijin nodded slightly. "Catch a few and bring them back for Dad and the others. Can they make bacon?"
"Yes."
"Okay, also send a few bags to Xiao Lan and Adele."
Fu Yunshen held the tablet computer. "Yaoyao, Imperial Capital University is officially on holiday, and your results are out. Do you want to see them?"
Ying Zijin closed her eyes. "No, there's no suspense."
Fu Yunshen looked at the row of full marks and GPA: "…"
There was indeed no suspense.
**
Ying Zijin and Fu Yunshen returned to the ancient medicine world after staying at the Ji family's house for four days.
The hunt started in the afternoon, and many people had already arrived at the horse ranch at eleven o 'clock.
Fu Yunshen went to get the riding clothes for hunting.
Ying Zijin was wearing a baseball cap and holding a bottle of Coke in her hand, looking at the horse.
She glanced at it quickly and only stopped at the end.
Ying Zijin looked up and narrowed her eyes.
It was a pure black horse with a bright mane, four hooves, and a healthy body.
The horse was firmly tied to the railing, and it let out a warning whinny when it saw someone coming.
It startled the others who were looking at the horse.
The girl was dressed differently from the people in the ancient medicine world, and many people looked over curiously.
Ying Zijin raised her hand and was about to grab the horse's reins.
"Miss Ying!" Meng Qingxue saw it and frowned. "That's a wild horse. It hasn't been tamed yet, so you can't ride it. Don't touch it."
