Chapter 98: Cut the grass at its roots

To cut the grass, you must remove the roots.
Princess Mingzhu is so cruel that she uses the snake corpse as a feast. We cannot let her go.
Cao Jinxing said: "The old ones are exhausted and the young ones are too weak to run far..."
"I'll go."
Shen Xiang nodded in understanding and said, "It's just that you..."
Cao Jinxing shook his head: "Don't worry, I'm fine."
A [Heavenly King Pill] has made up for the damage he suffered from drawing the bow, and he was not injured just now, so there is no problem at all.
"good."
Shen Xiang turned around, bowed to Zhou Mingrui and Lei Zongliang, and said, "Please help me and look after my brother."
Zhou Mingrui opened his mouth and thought, he is so powerful, does he still need our care?
"Do not worry."
Lei Zongliang cupped his hands and said, "We will do our best."
Shen Xiang nodded and chased after him.
It was quiet in the cave.
Zhou Mingrui and Lei Zongliang looked at Cao Jinxing together.
"Xuepo Sword, Xiuchun Knife..."
Lei Zongliang raised his eyebrows and said with a smile: "Brother Wang Wu, you are going a bit too far."
"No wonder the name was so random, it's almost like writing it on the face..."
Zhou Mingrui whispered, "It turns out to be the thirteenth guardian of the Imperial Guard, Cao Jinxing..."
The Langya List said that this person mastered the three unique skills of sword, knife and palm in two months. He always thought that Langya Pavilion was giving face to the Pacification Office and was just bragging.
When I saw you today, I realized that I was too modest.
In addition, he has ghostly martial arts skills and such a powerful pet!
He single-handedly lured the Flame-winged Eagle and the Mongols into a fight, and then "learned and applied" Mongolian archery skills to kill the snake mother with three arrows!
What a terrifying talent!
Zhou Mingrui felt complicated.
I’m afraid of comparison in everything…
The matter has been settled.
Cao Jinxing simply uncovered his face, revealing his true appearance, and said, "I'm sorry, it was just to make it easier for me to move, I didn't mean to hide it, please forgive me."
"Master Cao, there is no need to do this."
Lei Zongliang said: "Since the man just now is surnamed Shen and used the Shushan swordsmanship, he should be the twelfth guardian."
"yes."
After Cao Jinxing finished answering, he changed the subject and said, "This matter is of great importance, and the Eight Horses of the Wanma Gang are still in the dark. I hope you two can tell the truth and give a brief explanation later."
The Wanma Gang has a complicated relationship with the government. Don't let those horse dealers think that the court is deliberately discrediting them and then taking the opportunity to cause trouble, then the Jinyiwei will have to step in.
Lei Zongliang nodded: "I understand."
Zhou Mingrui next to him was about to nod, but suddenly he slapped his head and said anxiously: "My father! My father is still in here!"
He began to look for Zhou Hongru anxiously among the snake corpses.
Many people were lying on the ground in all directions.
Except for the humans in the cages, most of them were clawed or pecked to death by the flame-winged eagles.
Zhou Mingrui was very worried.
What’s even worse is that he also saw several escorts from Huiyou Escort Agency.
"Please don't let anything happen to you..."
Zhou Mingrui was running around in the cave. Lei Zongliang saw that he could not help, so he turned his attention to the Flame-winged Eagle and the snake mother's corpse .
Cao Jinxing glanced at him and said, "This time, I was able to accomplish this task thanks to your help. How about this golden flame snake..."
" Master Cao what are you talking about?"
Lei Zongliang interrupted him and said, "The reason why I helped is, first, to open up the trade route, and second, to eliminate harm for the people. You can kill snakes and eagles because of your own ability. Of course, it's yours... I just saw that the snake scales and eagle feathers are of good quality, especially the eagle feathers, which are harder than metal and can release flames. They are good materials for making firearms."
"Then I'll leave it to you."
Cao Jinxing said directly: "Good materials require the skills of a master, so please don't be polite, Third Hall Master. When you make it, just give me one as a return gift."
This "wait" is very intriguing.
Lei Zongliang could have dragged it on. Cao Jinxing didn't look like the kind of person who would ask for money, so this was just an excuse for him to take it for free.
Lei Zongliang is a businessman. In their eyes, it is easy to tell who is insincere and who is sincere.
"good."
Lei Zongliang said solemnly: "Since you are so generous, I will not say much. When the firearms are ready, I will definitely deliver them to you."
Cao Jinxing smiled, passed by and looked at the snake corpses all over the ground: "Third Hall Master, please help me. This is a big matter, we need to inform the Guangning prefect, and these patients also need to be accommodated. I have to trouble the Third Hall Master to send someone to run errands."
"No problem."
Lei Zongliang agreed readily: "I have a mechanical bird in my box, which can be used to contact my Lei brothers. Sir, please wait a moment..."
Before he could finish his words, a loud shout was heard.
"father!"
Zhou Mingrui finally found Zhou Hongru who had fallen to the ground. He had been flapped by the Flame-winged Eagle's wings, half of his body was broken, he had burns, and was unconscious.
Cao Jinxing and Lei Zongliang rushed over, one gave acupuncture to remove the poison, and the other gave medicine to the wound.
"fine."
Cao Jinxing performed the acupuncture very quickly and breathed a sigh of relief, "Within half a month, I can still remove the poison. If it takes longer, the poison will enter the five internal organs and we can only wait for the Medical Immortal to come."
"Thank you, sir."
Zhou Mingrui said gratefully: "I didn't expect you to have such great medical skills..."
"I learned a trick for emergency situations, but it can only cure snake venom."
Cao Jinxing took another closer look and said, "Your father is no longer in danger of death, but his bones and internal organs are severely injured. We'll discuss the specific treatment when we get back."
Lei Zongliang opened the black box, took out a pen and paper to write down the instructions, and let the mechanical bird fly back to Wenhe Inn.
Then just wait.
During this period, Cao Jinxing took out the golden flame snake's gallbladder and froze it, and kept it together with the two blood beads, to be taken when he returned.
With nothing else to do, he started to provide detoxification to those in the crowd who had been injured for a short time, so as to save them trouble later.
After Zhou Mingrui settled his father, he watched Cao Jinxing use both hands to save people with acupuncture, and couldn't help but sigh: "It's true that there is no shortage of geniuses in the world. I have been a slow learner since I was a child. If I grew up with Lord Cao, I'm afraid my father would despise me to death."
"everybody is good for something……"
Cao Jinxing kept moving, the Phoenix Needle in his hand rising and falling: "...Besides, there is gain and loss, there is no need to be envious."
Zhou Mingrui was just about to ask him what he had lost when he heard dense footsteps coming from the entrance of the passage.
The three of them looked in the direction of the sound and saw that it was the Guangning Prefecture's constables and the Lei family guards who had arrived.
On the way, he also picked up the Eight Horses of the Wanma Gang.
The prefect of Guangning had been worried about the disappearance of the caravan. When he heard the news from the Lei family and learned that the Jinyiwei was involved, he realized that the case was of great importance. He quickly got out of bed and ordered the chief constable to lead the constables and runners to rescue the people.
The captain of the police was named Fei. He was knowledgeable and had a good memory. He quickly matched the missing person with the person in the iron cage.
"Captain Fei, I've already told you the details. Do you have any objections?" Cao Jinxing said.
“No more.”
Captain Fei quickly put on a smile and said, "Lord Cao is indeed worthy of being one of the Thirteen Guardians of the Pacification Division. He is very smart and can solve cases like a god. He is like Di Gong in the world, or Longtu resurrected..."
“Stop, stop, stop!”
Cao Jinxing quickly stopped him and said, "You are not embarrassed when you say it, but I am blushing when I hear it."
"So you know what to do?"
"A little."
Captain Fei said carefully: "…Send the injured to the inn to settle down, and then send someone to inform their families and arrange for a doctor to take care of them. As for the people from the Wanma Gang, detain them temporarily, and arrest or release them after the cause is found out."
"Um."
Cao Jinxing nodded. "Wu Yunfeng and Hualiu will be the key figures, especially Wu Yunfeng, who tried to kidnap the disciple of the Medical Immortal twice. I have already cured him of the poison and abolished his martial arts! As for whether the Eight Horses of the Wanma Gang were all instructed by the Mongols or whether they themselves are not clean, we will tell you after a detailed investigation. I will write to General Zhang later and ask him to send military experts to assist. You don't have to worry."
Captain Fei breathed a sigh of relief: "Thank you for your understanding." It was really difficult to let a group of constables guard a martial arts master.
"Then I'll leave things here to you to handle slowly."
Cao Jinxing looked around and said, "I have saved all those who can be saved here. The others have to wait for the Medical Immortal or other divine doctors to come. I can't do anything with my half-baked skills."
"Your Excellency is too modest."
Captain Fei said quickly: "Your medical skills and acupuncture techniques are already miraculous, reaching the pinnacle, you are like Hua Tuo in the world, or Bian Que resurrected..."
"okay!"
This is the only sentence you know, right?
Cao Jinxing was speechless.
He was too lazy to respond and looked outside Yuquan Temple: "It's been so long and he hasn't come back yet, what's the situation with Old Shen?"

Shen Xiang is chasing Mingzhu.
He has successfully followed the trail to find the place where the great shaman taught Mingzhu his skills, and also discovered the buried corpse and the escaped Mingzhu.
But he encountered obstacles when killing people.
"Your Highness, run away!"
A group of thirty shaman knights rushed out of the dense forest and stopped in front of Shen Xiang: "We are waiting here under the guidance of the great shaman. Please mount your horses and return to the Chahar Khanate!"
“Master…”
Mingzhu no longer had the ruthlessness she had when she swore before, and with just one sword, she let Shen Xiang's sword energy cut off her right arm!
Without any moves, she couldn't bring her innate inner strength to bear. She was basically a target. Her face was pale and half of her body was covered in blood!
Damn Han people!
She quickly mounted her horse and rode away.
"oh?"
Shen Xiang stood in front of the front line of cavalry and said expressionlessly: "Can the foreign tribes also calculate the secrets of heaven? If so, have you figured out how many moves you can hold out?"
"kill!"
The leader had a cold face and drew his scimitar.
Thirty riders charged forward in an orderly manner, in a mighty force!
"the answer is……"
Shen Xiang sneered: "I can't even hold out for one move!"
He stomped his foot.
The Ningguang sword is out of hand!
In an instant, strong winds blew in all directions, and an invisible tornado was formed out of thin air from the sword. Wherever it passed, sand and rocks flew, and people and horses fell to the ground!
Screams were heard one after another.
Mingzhu was terrified and couldn't help but look back.
"Where are you looking at?"
Suddenly, a voice rang in my ears, followed by the sound of breaking wind, and then with a "puff" sound, I felt a pain in my chest.
Mingzhu lowered her head in astonishment.
She saw the shining tip of the sword!
A sword pierced her from behind!
Something broke in my chest.
Warm liquid flows out.
"It turns out that your master's predictions were inaccurate..."
Shen Xiang drew his sword, and then slashed it horizontally. Mingzhu's head flew into the air and his body fell off the horse.
"Thirteen is making such rapid progress. As his sworn brother, I can't just sit there and wait for him to surpass me... This move is something I learned based on 'Controlling the Sword with Qi'..."
Shen Xiang looked at the corpse on the ground and murmured, "...You said, let's call it [Hundred-Step Flying Sword], how about it?"
