But when Zhou Xuan reached the hall on the first floor, he was stunned.
In the hall, Ye Qingtang and Lin Long had not left.
The Apothecary was standing at the entrance of the pavilion, and many citizens were behind him, blocking all the exits.
Zhou Xuan looked at everything in front of him stiffly and vaguely sensed that something was wrong.
"Apothecary … you guys are …" Zhou Xuan said hesitantly.
However, at this moment, the elderly standing in the hall was no longer as humble as before. He stood there with his back straight, and a creepy smile hung on his lips. The citizens standing behind him were expressionless and did not have the initial reverence and uneasiness on their faces. Instead, their eyes were as cruel and cold as a wild beast's.
Ye Qingtang narrowed her eyes and looked at the group of people blocking in front of them. She instinctively tightened her grip on Lin Long's wrist.
The Apothecary's gaze was less humble and more sinister. He sized up Ye Qingtang and the rest, and the smile on his lips was so sinister that it was a little scary.
"Sirs, it's already so late. Where are you going? If there's anything, you can do it tomorrow, "the Apothecary said, but his tone was more forceful.
Ye Qingtang looked at the Apothecary coldly, and her lips suddenly curved into a smile.
"Village Master Wu, you brought so many people here at night. Shouldn't you tell us the reason?"
The moment Ye Qingtang said that, not just the Apothecary, but even Lin Long and Zhou Xuan, who were standing at the side, were instantly stunned!
Village Master Wu?
Wu Chengze?!
What exactly was Ye Qingtang saying!
The smile on the Apothecary's lips gradually disappeared as he addressed her. He suddenly narrowed his eyes and looked at the beautiful young girl in front of him.
"Lord Ye, what are you saying? Why don't I understand? "
Ye Qingtang smiled and tilted her head slightly. "Village Master Wu, I can't help but admire your acting skills. But you've forgotten that even if you've changed your face, some things can't be changed."
As she spoke, her gaze landed on the Apothecary's hands that were hanging by his side. "As an Apothecary, the web between your thumb and index finger is filled with thick calluses. To accumulate such thick calluses, one would need at least decades of sword practice … Village Master Wu, you're still too careless."
The moment she said that, the Apothecary looked at his hands. There were indeed calluses between his thumb and forefinger that did not match his identity as an Apothecary. He narrowed his eyes slightly but did not show any panic on his face. He only raised his head and said helplessly, "Although I am not talented enough, I like to cultivate my body and mind with the sword. I'm afraid Lord Ye has misunderstood."
"Misunderstanding?" Ye Qingtang raised her brows slightly and smiled. "Then … Village Master Wu, can you tell me why your grandson's body is so skinny in Spirit Condensation Mountain Village? The pampered Young Manor Lord is as skinny as a child from a poor family. He's obviously a treasure in his hands, but why are his hands as rough as a servant's? "
The Apothecary's face instantly darkened.
Ye Qingtang sneered in her heart, and her eyes sharpened!
