Chapter 586: Grabbing Medicine
Chapter 586: Grabbing Medicine
Today, the sun is shining as usual, but the weather is not as hot.
After leaving the weapon refining workshop, Si He, wearing a veil hat, got directly into the carriage.
The roads in the city were wide and sparsely populated, so the journey was smooth. However, not long after leaving the city, we encountered two groups of people fighting on the road, and the fight was quite fierce.
This is a group of people who encountered robbers. However, the robbers were dressed like gangsters. Judging from the current situation, it looked more like a revenge killing or a robbery with a clear purpose.
Because these people were fighting and blocked the road, Si He stopped the carriage and waited until the fight was over before continuing on his way. There was no need to rush at this moment.
Si He and others watched from afar, and there were also some passers-by behind them who did the same. They had no intention of intervening, but just asked the accompanying guards to be on alert.
Among them were some pedestrians who originally wanted to turn around and flee, thinking that there were robbers ahead and they were afraid of being in trouble. However, seeing that there were two groups of people with knives waiting on the side and not retreating, they plucked up the courage to stop behind and wait and see the situation. They thought that if a fight broke out here, they could run back, and there would be someone taller to hold up the sky if it collapsed.
The situation is chaotic nowadays, and it is normal to see robbers on the road. Generally speaking, most people will choose to travel in groups or follow powerful people.
At this moment, Si He lifted a corner of the car curtain and watched the fight ahead from afar, then saw the robbed person asking for help towards this side.
"Help! Please help me, we will reward you handsomely!"
The person who spoke was a middle-aged man sitting in the carriage. He stuck his head out and asked for help from the people watching from a distance with an anxious look on his face.
After all, in addition to Si He's team of swordsmen, there is another team of people who also seem to have extraordinary origins. The guards are all tall and strong, and they are carrying sharp swords and broadswords.
In addition to this man crying for help, several younger gentlemen who were accompanying him also followed suit and shouted for help in panic. They huddled beside the carriage, looking at the bandits surrounding them in horror.
Hearing these people's shouting, the fighting gang members immediately looked over here vigilantly, fearing that outsiders would interfere.
"You stole our medicine, hand it over immediately and I'll spare your life!"
They also started to refute at this time, claiming that their things were stolen, so they took action. This meant that they were telling outsiders that this was a private grudge and they did not want outsiders to interfere.
When the people who were surrounded heard this, they were immediately furious.
"You are despicable and shameless. Who stole your things? You are slandering me!"
"You are a group of robbers! Help—"
"A generous reward for rescue! Please help us rid the people of this evil!"
……
The besieged young masters screamed loudly and asked for help from outsiders. Although their subordinates resisted the siege of these people with all their might, they could not hold out for long. The other side had more people and had trapped them in place, making it impossible for them to escape!
Now more and more of their men are injured and the situation is becoming critical. They have to panic.
Si He's expression was indifferent. She remained unmoved by the situation.
Seeing that they had no intention of intervening, the other team on the side also stood by and watched.
Seeing this, the besieged people felt a chill in their hearts. Finally, the middle-aged man gritted his teeth and reluctantly gave up and took out a bottle of medicine.
When those martial artists saw this, their eyes suddenly became hot, and they told their men to stop.
For a moment, the fighting stopped and they all retreated a little, keeping a safe distance. As long as they could get the things, the mission was completed. There was no need to fight to the death at this time. After all, they couldn't fight here for too long.
Before handing over the medicine bottle, the man gritted his teeth and said, "I can give you this bottle of longevity pill I bought, but I want to know who sent you here?!"
He spoke in a loud voice, almost shouting, so that people far away could hear what he said clearly.
He did this on purpose. Since they had to hand over the things, he would let them experience the feeling of being targeted and hunted!
The leader of the Jianghu people had a grim expression when he heard this. He didn't say much, but just said, "Throw the medicine bottle over here!"
The man seemed reluctant, as if he was waiting for his answer before handing over the bottle. At the same time, he couldn't help but glance at the people in the distance, and was suddenly worried that they didn't know about the miraculous medicine called the Longevity Pill.
But the enemy leader didn't waste any more time, "Kill!"
At a command, a group of men started fighting again.
Most of the people watching from afar didn't know what the longevity pill was, but they were not stupid and knew what it was for just by hearing the name. And seeing how fiercely they were fighting for this medicine, it was obvious that this medicine was extraordinary and very precious!
For a moment, everyone had different expressions.
Si He was also a little surprised. She didn't expect these people to fight for this medicine.
The same thing happened before outside Tianshan. At that time, the bottle of medicine had been given to Chang Ling, asking him to study and refine it. At that time, she wanted to see how much Chang Ling knew about the longevity pill, and she had other considerations, so she did not take the medicine back.
But now, someone is trying to snatch the longevity elixir again. The man just now said that he bought it?
Did Chang Ling refine the medicine? Or did the previous bottle of medicine slip from Chang Ling's hands and end up in these people's hands? Or was this a fake medicine?
At this time, the trapped man was finally forced to throw away the medicine bottle in his hand.
The other party quickly reached out to take it, and the fight between the two sides stopped again. The man opened the bottle with a happy expression and checked the medicine inside.
Si He narrowed her eyes slightly, and after a while, she said to the guards outside: "Grab the medicine."
"Yes!"
The leader of the guards outside the carriage responded immediately, and then led his men and horses, rushing forward with murderous intent.
As soon as there was any movement here, the people over there immediately noticed it. They didn't expect that someone would actually interfere! And at this critical moment!
However, after Si He's people took action, the team not far away also sent people to join the fight, and the situation suddenly became complicated.
Their leader was still shouting that he was ridding the people of harm and killing the robbers while he was taking action, which gave him a name for his actions.
Si He turned his head to look at the group of people not far away, and saw that the people in the carriage were also looking over here.
The man's eyes showed surprise when he first saw it, but he soon calmed down.
He was a young man in his early twenties with a handsome appearance. When he looked at Si He, he smiled widely, his eyes full of scrutiny and speculation. A pretty beauty was leaning against his side.
The most eye-catching thing was that the Yue family's emblem was hung in front of his carriage.
Si He recalled carefully, but had no impression of this person. She wondered who he was from the Yue family.
