Chapter 93 Missing

Chapter 93 Missing
In early winter of October, the north wind suddenly rises.

In the southwest border of Dong'e County, a team of nearly 10,000 soldiers and horses hurried on, escorting hundreds of carts of supplies as they marched southward. They were Song Jiang's troops returning from Liangshan.

Attacking Gaotang, killing the prefect, and robbing money and grain made Liangshan's notoriety spread rapidly. Which county along the way dared to provoke it?
At the end of the baggage train, there was an ordinary cart following, with straw underneath and a winter quilt covering it. In the middle was lying a listless young man, who was none other than Yang Chang who had fainted at the celebration banquet.

I opened my eyes on the bumpy ride and saw the sky was gray.

Yang Chang sat up by supporting himself on the carriage board. On his left were the moving carriage and soldiers, and on his right was the withered and desolate earth.

"Where is this?"

"Sanlang? You're awake!"

When Zhu Tong heard the familiar voice, he jumped off the horse with a start, holding onto the edge of the carriage, very excited.

When Yang Chang saw Zhu Tong, he remembered that he was in the Water Margin world. He rubbed his forehead and forced himself to stay awake, but his body was still very tired.

"Brother Jieji, where are we going now? I am..."

"On the way back to Liangshan, you had been unconscious for almost four days. The military doctor said that you were suffering from a deficiency of both Qi and blood. It was probably because you consumed too much energy chasing Gao Lian and drank too quickly that night. In addition..."

"Ok?"

"Song Gongming was afraid that you were possessed by evil spirits, so he asked Master Yiqing to perform a ritual to exorcise the evil spirits. However, Master Yiqing said that Sanlang's spirit was damaged, and it is possible that he was injured by Gao Lian's magic. Anyway, it is good that he can wake up. Remember not to fight so hard in the future!"

"Uh, no."

Yang Chang suddenly remembered the meaning of [Eye of Insight], 'The stronger the origin, the more energy is consumed, and if the energy is insufficient, the spirit is consumed.'

It should be that he tried to force himself to spy on the Qi-refining master Gongsun Sheng, which caused him to run out of energy and fall into a coma.

[Eye of Insight] is good, but this thing is harmful to the body. Don’t use it carelessly in the future, especially for an extraordinary person with a strong origin like Gongsun Sheng.

Gongsun Sheng is at the fifth level of the Qi Refining Realm. How could this little Karami from the ordinary world of immortal cultivation be so amazing in the Water Margin world, beating up mortals like a piece of cake?
Use the Qi-inducing spell to peek into the origin. Perhaps after reaching the Qi Refining Realm, you can use the [Eye of Insight] at will?
When Yang Chang obtained the [Eye of Insight], it was like learning a practical big move in the game. His own mana was only 100 points at the time, but it required 1,000 mana to release the big move, and if the mana was not enough, his health would be deducted.

I don't know why Gao Lian had no cultivation before. After he died, not only did he not release any attack spells, but why didn't he also drop some Qi Refining Realm cultivation? Ordinary soldiers will drop weapon experience.
Ever since I saw Gongsun Sheng's cultivation, I suddenly felt that my own attributes and skills were not that good.

But no matter how much we complain, life must go on.

Compared to other people in this world, Yang Chang was already getting a great advantage by being able to pick up corpses. He stroked his chest and comforted himself to be content. What if he had the opportunity to practice in the future?
"Are you hungry, Sanlang? Can I get you something to eat?"

"are you hungry?"

After hearing Zhu Tong's reminder, Yang Chang slapped his forehead and said in surprise: "Yes, I have been unconscious for four days, but I didn't starve to death."

"What nonsense are you talking about, Sanlang? He wasn't completely unconscious for four days. He was fed some porridge while he was dazed. Otherwise, how could he have survived until now? Lie down quickly and don't move. Brother will be back soon."

"Oh"

Yang Chang responded and lay down again, staring at the gray sky, thinking about how he would develop in the future.

He must continue to pick up corpses. Is he trying to get close to Gongsun Sheng? His disciples all have the fifth level of Qi Refining Realm, so his master Luo Zhenren should have a higher level of cultivation?

Riding a donkey and mule thinking of a steed, the official residence and the prime minister met the prince.

If he could enter the immortal world and seek immortality, he would not want to miss this opportunity.

By the way, we have to bring Sanniang along, so that we can be a happy couple.

While Yang Chang was daydreaming, Zhu Tong came back with dry food and water, and also reported to Song Jiang and Wu Yong. Many leaders came to visit and say hello.

Gongsun Sheng also came. He looked at Yang Chang for a long time, then just nodded and left.

At the fifth level of Qi Refining Realm, does he have the ability to tell fortunes? Can he tell his fate of picking up corpses? All these made Yang Chang feel very nervous. He thought, don't be like the old Chinese doctor who doesn't speak. He was scared when being stared at by a big guy.

As the crowd left, Yang Chang suddenly asked Zhu Tong, "Brother, while I was unconscious, did any leader come to check on me?"

"Yes." Zhu Tong nodded and said, "Li Jun came several times, Instructor Lin and Tixia Sun came twice each. It seems that they have a good relationship with you. In addition, Yang Lin came once."

"I don't need to worry about it." Yang Chang chewed the biscuit and thought to himself that only these few people were worth making friends with. Most of the others were Song Jiang's confidants, and he had never thought about making close friends with them.

It’s not the quantity of friends that matters but their quality; having three or five good friends is enough.

When they returned to Liangshan in mid-October, Chao Gai held a grand banquet to celebrate his success and welcome Chai into the group. However, Yang Chang was absent from the gathering of leaders due to illness, and Hu Sanniang stayed in the back mountain to serve and did not attend either.

Song Jiang was drunk that day. When he was helped back to his residence by Song Qing to rest, he stopped in front of the door and burped. He suddenly remembered that Wang Aihu was not there, so he went to say hello next door.

"Where are you going, brother?"

"Hmm? I didn't see Brother Wang Ying just now. I wanted to say hello before going to bed."

"Wang Aihu is not on the mountain"

"Not on the mountain?" Song Jiang was surprised. He quickly leaned against the wall and shook his head. He frowned and asked, "Is it in Yanshun Village? I passed by the main road in front of the mountain at noon, but I didn't see this guy coming to greet me."

Song Qing pouted and shook his head, "He's not here either. He left Liangshan."

"What?" Song Jiang sobered up with a start. He moved closer to Song Qing and asked again, "Silang, what do you mean?"

"Let's talk inside."

Song Qing held Song Jiang and pushed open the door, explaining as he walked: "During the time when my brother was attacking Gaotang Prefecture, Wang Aihu felt bored in the mountains, so he moved to Yanshun Camp for a short stay. Half a month ago, I heard that he sailed out to Jinling to find an expert in 'transplanting flowers and grafting trees'. After that, there was no news of him."

"A master from Jinling?"

"It is said that there is a famous doctor in Jiankang Prefecture, who is called 'the living Hua Tuo' by the locals."

"I see."

Song Jiang nodded and just sat down, when he suddenly stood up with his hands on the table, thinking that the "transplanting flowers and grafting trees" was just his own nonsense, and it would be useless even if Wang Aihu found the real Hua Tuo.

The key point is that Liangshan is famous in Gaotang Prefecture, and they are afraid that this guy’s ability is not enough to make it to Jinling.

"Did Yan Shun send him away? Did he send an escort to accompany him?"

"I asked Yan Shun before, and he said he didn't know. Wang Aihu left alone. It seems that he didn't even go to Jinshatan, but got a boat from Shuizhai. He didn't see anyone in the four stores of the east, south, west, and north. Maybe he rowed the boat directly to Jeju?"

"Who will take him across the 800-li Liangshan Lake?"

Song Jiang frowned, thinking that there was no news from the outer area of ​​the lake, could it be that there was a storm in the lake? Thinking of this, his face instantly turned black.

"Brother, where do you want to go?"

"Nanshan Water Village!"

"Brother, why do you have to go down the mountain? The Ruan brothers are also drunk and are now resting in their residence on the top of the mountain. I will go and call them to ask them."

"No, I'll go myself."

Seeing that Song Jiang was determined to do so, Song Qing had no choice but to help him go find the three Ruans.

Yang Chang lay in the tent for a day. He was still weak, but his complexion had improved a lot.

There was some warm sunshine at noon, and Hu San helped him go outside the village to get some fresh air.

I saw that Yazui Beach in the northwest of the mountain seemed different from usual, and there were more thugs near the pier.

"What's going on at Duckbill Beach?"

"You are the only one who can't sit still. I'll ask someone to ask."

Half an hour later, the scouts came back to report that some unknown clothing was found at Yazui Beach, and they were suspected to be the clothing of the smuggled leader Wang Aihu.
