Chapter 128
Si Ruiyan's eyes moved, and suddenly he felt that something was removed from his heart, and suddenly his breathing became much easier.

Seeing the old doctor and Cheng Feng come back, he should know that Xiao Ning is fine.But when I actually heard this answer, my heart was relieved a lot.

"You're amazing, kid! Don't let me see you in the future!" The old doctor was willing to gamble and admit defeat, but he still felt unwilling to lose to a young man.

Just as he turned to leave, Si Ruiyan suddenly stopped him.

"Wait a minute, old doctor, you owe me something and haven't paid it back."

The old doctor was stunned, his eyes widened again, and wrinkles appeared on his forehead.

"Since you lost the first game of chess, you didn't even realize that you lost, and you played the second game with me confidently. After that, you wanted to drink and play tricks. Add up the two things, do you think you still owe something?" Si Ruiyan whispered softly, with confidence in his eyes.

"What do you want!" The old doctor wanted to play tricks, but he failed once before, and no matter how thick-skinned he was, he would be laughed to death by the younger generation.

"I want the old doctor to inquire about something for me." Si Ruiyan's voice suddenly became colder, "Prefect Li of Xihe City, have you deployed defenses in the city recently?"

As soon as these words came out, the old doctor's original angry expression suddenly turned into astonishment.

Si Ruiyan looked at him firmly, not feeling at all that he asked the wrong person.

Even though he was wearing a mask, the old doctor recognized him.He also knew that he was imprisoned in this station and which room he lived in.It can be seen that on the first day he entered the city, the old doctor received some news.

He is very clear about every move of Xihe City, and he is by no means an old doctor who simply hides from the world.

Mrs. Ming has their inquiring contacts, and the information she inquires will not be accurate or inaccurate, no matter what she inquires, she will not tell him.

He didn't want to be kept in the dark, however.

"Are you here to help those rebels?" The old doctor's voice suddenly sank.

"Not exactly." Si Ruiyan's eyes lightly moved, "Firstly, it's because I don't want people to suffer, and secondly, it's not because I don't want to startle the snake."

"Shock the snake?" The old doctor frowned suddenly, as if some other thoughts appeared in his eyes.

Si Ruiyan raised his eyes to look at him, and their eyes met.

"I see." The old doctor stroked his beard, raised his legs, squinted his eyes and became a little cunning in an instant.

"I didn't expect that people like me, half of my body buried in the ground, would still miss it. Since you have such an identity and such a city, I have lost this game in vain!"

A genius doctor who has been in the rivers and lakes for many years is actually convinced by a young man.

If this is spread, there will be some waves in the arena.

"But even if you lose, you don't want to ask for anything from me!" The old doctor twirled his beard like a mouse negotiating with a cat, "I saved your wife's life anyway. I lost your bet. You said I cheated, but how can I be cheated if I didn't succeed. "

Although the sophistry was unreasonable, Si Ruiyan didn't respond either. He knew that the old doctor had something to say next.

"It's fine if you want me to find out for you, but you have to agree to one condition." The old doctor didn't wait for Si Ruiyan to agree, and pointed out a finger, "Come and play chess with me once a month, otherwise, don't even think about playing chess with me." What's the cheapest thing to ask for!"

Cheng Feng was sweating on the sidelines, he thought that the old guy was going to make some excessive demands, and he was ready to fight for his master, but he didn't expect it to be such a flimsy condition.

West Crane City is only a day’s journey away from Kyoto, so if you take two days out of a month, it’s nothing like a "good old doctor." Si Ruiyan untied the jade pendant from his waist, put it on the table, and pushed it gently past.

This is considered an agreement.

The old doctor glanced at the jade pendant, snorted coldly, said nothing, turned around with a flick of his sleeves and walked out the door.

"The old man's temper is really weird, but giving him a token, not giving him silver taels, why did he lose his temper?" Cheng Feng saw the old man leave from the window, and finally dared to speak out what was in his heart.

"Perhaps, he knows all about my comings and goings." Si Rui said with deep eyes.

If he wanted to live in seclusion, he had to keep an eye on the world, and if there was any trouble, he could make early preparations, flee or fight.

Knowing oneself, knowing the enemy, and winning every battle, this old doctor has been in the arena for many years in his early years and offended many people. It is not easy to quit the arena with just one word.There are countless people who want to chase and kill him, how can they survive until now without any way to inquire about him.

"Is she really alright?" Si Ruiyan asked softly.

The poison on Xiao Ning's body, he believed that the old doctor could cure it, but he didn't know what to do with the dark poison accumulated in his body for many years.

"Don't worry, my lord, before we come back, the eldest lady is no longer in danger of her life. Our people also took the pulse personally, but this relapse has caused some damage to her internal organs, and she needs to be recuperated slowly." Cheng Feng replied truthfully.

Si Ruiyan breathed a sigh of relief, as long as he didn't have to worry about his life.It is not difficult to recuperate, and anyone who wants any medicinal material can find a way to get it.

A person suddenly appeared outside the door.

"You?" The man was about to step into the house when he saw Cheng Feng suddenly startled.

Cheng Feng put his hand on the handle of the knife, his eyes were filled with murderous aura.

"Go out." Si Ruiyan glanced at Cheng Feng, raised his hand and poured a cup of tea, and put it on the seat in front of him.

Hearing this, Cheng Feng withdrew his hands, swaggered past the man and left.

The man's face was tense, seeing Cheng Feng going out, and seeing the tea on the table, he walked over and sat down calmly.

"Do you know who I am?" The visitor was only in his early thirties, but he had a white face and no beard. He looked only eighteen or nineteen years old.

"Of course I recognize it." Si Ruiyan recalled the assembly in the hall a few days ago, and this person was the one who stood up and insisted on uprising that day to avenge the elder.

"Since you know who I am, I'll cut to the chase and say it directly." The young man clasped his fists together, "I'm called Heishanyun, and I'm the leader of the gang. I and the gang members have already dealt with the uprising. Discuss clearly, I don't know what Madam Ming and Elder Wu want?"

Si Ruiyan's eyes were tight, and he sneered silently in his heart.

He didn't intervene much in the affairs of the rebel army. When he went out to investigate a few days ago, Mrs. Ming and Elder Wu also left first.

It was absurd for this person to come directly to him and ask him what those two people were thinking.

It's just that since he can be the master of the house, he must not be such a confused person.I didn't really want to ask for an answer when I came to ask questions, but to provoke.

If he said that he didn't know, Heishanyun would definitely attack. If he said what Mrs. Ming and others thought, it would be nonsense.Then he will go over there to sow discord and say things that shouldn't be said.

Of course, he can also be ambiguous and say that he can discuss with Mrs. Ming.But when Heishanyun refused to let go, he made another provocative statement.

"Mrs. Ming has always called you son, and the elders and others don't know your name or where you come from." Suspicion was already in Heishanyun's eyes, "You seem to know the uprising very well. Since you know that Prefect Li has already deployed it, then you should also know how to break through!"

Liyu was deep, like an ice pick falling between the two.

Si Ruiyan smiled lightly and shook his head, casually walked to the window sill, with his hands behind his back and his back facing Heishanyun.

This is an extremely disadvantageous position for him.

No one will turn his back to the enemy, even the beasts in the forest know to protect their backs at all times.

"I'm afraid the hall master is overestimating it. It's not difficult to find out the news. It's just that some of you are too eager to take the risk and don't want to give up halfway." When Si Ruiyan was in the hall, he saw many people hesitation.
