I have a magical tree

Given Chen Er's injuries, the wisest thing to do is to go directly to the city wall to call for help, so that he can get help and treatment from the city defense army immediately.

Chen Er just passed on the message, which was a secret message. As long as he didn't reveal it casually, he didn't have to hide from people. He could just wait until the city defense army rescued him and told him the news after seeing him.

In this case, would Chen Er choose to enter the city through a secret passage? And finally faint on the street?

"Let's go! Accompany me to the Shangyi Bureau!" Nangong Nei thought of this and took Chen Xiao straight to the Shangyi Bureau.

One is to see Chen Er's injuries, and the other is to see if there are any clues and information left on him.

"What to do?"

"Nothing, just a casual look!"

Chen Xiao was helpless. Nangong must have something on his mind, but if he didn't say it, he couldn't do anything!

The two came to the Shangyi Bureau. As soon as they arrived at the door, they saw Ge Yongyan and Xu Dao getting out of the car.

"Ge Zhubu!" Nangong Nei called out.

"Your Excellency, the Imperial Envoy!" Ge Yongyan hurriedly returned the greeting.

Xu Dao also saluted, "Meetings, Your Excellency, the Imperial Envoy!"

"No need to be polite!" Nangong Nei waved his hand, and Chen Xiao nodded to the two, although he didn't know either of them.

Nangong Nei looked at Xu Dao again, "Xu Dao, I remember you, this should be the third time we meet?"

Xu Dao bowed again, "I am so terrified!"

"Your talent for alchemy is second to none even in the county city. Although your talent for cultivation is not as amazing as alchemy, it is also very good. Don't underestimate yourself. I intend to recommend you to participate in the Xijing Dao Alchemy Competition. Don't let me down!"

Xu Dao was confused. What is the Xijing Dao Alchemy Competition? What is that? Why didn't he know? And when you recommended me like this, have you considered my feelings? Isn't this a bit disrespectful?

Xu Dao was thinking about how to refuse without being too rude. Based on his understanding of Nangong Nei, this mansion master was actually a good person. If he said directly that he didn't want to go, Nangong Nei probably wouldn't force him.

But at this time, he heard Ge Lao next to him take the lead in bowing, "Thank you, mansion master, for supporting my humble disciple!"

The happiness in his words didn't seem to be fake at all.

Nangong Nei waved his hand, "The Xijing Dao Alchemy Competition is a competition of ability. If you send him there, it depends on his luck. If he is strong enough, there will be a lot of good things in the competition, not only natural treasures that can improve the soul, but also pills that can improve the soul!"

Xu Dao's heart moved when he heard this. Natural treasures that can improve the soul? And pills that can improve the soul?

"Thank you, Lord Fuzun!" Xu Dao bowed sincerely. Although up to now, he still knows nothing about this Xijing Dao Alchemy Competition. But as long as there is benefit, he still doesn't mind going to see it!

From this point of view, Lord Nangong actually respects geniuses!

"I told you, don't thank me. There aren't many people in Black Mountain Prefecture who can be called geniuses in alchemy, and it's hard to find someone as talented as you in a few hundred years. If you get a good ranking in the competition, I will not only be proud of you, but Black Mountain Prefecture will also benefit from it!"

Nangong Nei patted Xu Dao on the shoulder, "However, this competition is not that simple, you have to be mentally prepared!"

Xu Dao nodded, and he was even more curious about the so-called Xijing Road Competition.

There are actually very few things that can move the master so much, which means that this competition is probably not as simple as he imagined. I must ask later.

But I heard Ge Lao asked: "What is the purpose of the Mansion Master coming here today?"

Nangong Nei's face became solemn, "In the early morning of today, the Inspection Department rescued a colleague from the Qingli Department on the street. The man is currently receiving treatment in the Shangyi Bureau. Let me take a look!"

Several people were surprised, but Xu Dao felt uneasy. You just look at the patient, why did you suddenly look at me?

However, just when Xu Dao was in doubt, Nangong Nei had already looked away.

"Let's go, Ge Zhubu is not busy now, right? Let's go and take a look together!" Nangong Nei invited.

Ge Yongyan is the most accomplished in the art of refining medicine in the Shangyi Bureau except for Old Wang. His medical skills have long been perfect, and he is definitely good at curing diseases and saving lives.

Ge Lao naturally would not refuse, nodded, and followed.

Xu Dao naturally fell behind to catch up, but he did not expect that there was another person who fell behind and walked side by side with him.

"Your name is Xu Dao?" Chen Xiao walked beside Xu Dao, and naturally raised his hand and put it on Xu Dao's shoulder.

Xu Dao: "..."

He nodded, "Yes, the Imperial Envoy!"

"Don't call me the Imperial Envoy, my surname is Chen and my name is Xiao!"

"Master Chen!" Xu Dao changed his name.

Chen Xiao shook his head, "Boring, you should call me Lao Chen or Brother Chen now! In this way, I will recognize you as my brother! But I didn't expect that you are not very courageous! Why does Nangong look at you differently?"

Xu Dao: "..."

No, this man is mentally ill!

He really can't grasp this man's thoughts and jumpy ideas.

So, he simply kept silent.

"Tell me yourself, what is there in you that is worthy of Nangong's attention?" Chen Xiao's eyes swept back and forth on Xu Dao.

He really had never seen it before. Nangong would pay so much attention to a young man. Is it really just because of his talent in alchemy?

Not necessarily. Nangong, who seems to be domineering and tough, is actually the most thoughtful. He always feels that Nangong pays so much attention to Xu Dao. There must be other reasons.

In fact, Xu Dao was also thinking about this question, especially the look in Nangong Nei's eyes when he mentioned Chen Er before. He always felt that something was wrong. Was he exposed?

This shouldn't be the case, or did he reveal a flaw somewhere that caught the attention of this Lord of the Mansion?

Xu Dao's mind turned rapidly, but he replied calmly: "Maybe I have decent talent!"

Chen Xiao curled his lips and took back his arm from Xu Dao's shoulder. This Xu Dao didn't seem to be lying. When answering questions, his breathing was steady and his heartbeat was normal.

Maybe he didn't know it himself?

It seems that this matter still needs to be asked by Nangong Nei.

Several people came to the medical department of the Shangyi Bureau.

Because Chen Er was extremely important, he was sent directly to Old Wang. He was not at ease to be placed in the hands of others. At least with Old Wang's means, even if he couldn't cure this person, he had a way to save his life.

"Lord of the Mansion, Grandmaster Chen, Old Ge!" When they entered the door, Old Wang was checking Chen Er's injuries.

"Old Wang!" Xu Dao still had a good impression of this great doctor.

"Xu Dao! You're here too!" Old Wang responded with a smile.

"How is Chen Er?"

"The strange energy entered his body and went deep into his lungs. The key is that he was so badly injured, but he still survived. It's unprecedented." Old Wang paused for a moment when he said this. "I suspect that this person had been treated before he was found, otherwise he would not have survived until we were found!"

After he finished speaking, Old Ge frowned, Xu Dao was uneasy, Nangong looked deep, and Chen Xiao seemed to be thinking about something.
