As expected, they came

"Alright!"

After a moment, Old Man Liu sighed and removed the silver needles from the man's body one by one.

"Boss, how is it?" The remaining three men crowded around.

The man clenched his fist, carefully felt it, and smiled, "I'm good!"

"Great, second brother, you go next!"

Then another man sat down in front of Old Man Liu and took off his clothes without a word.

As Old Man Liu inserted the needles again, Lu Zheng faintly sensed the chill again from the needle holes on the first man's upper body.

Old Man Liu didn't remove it completely for them.

But that's normal. This is medical skill, not magic. Modern colds require a course of medication, let alone ancient acupuncture?

However, these people were obviously not good people. Old Man Liu had to take action due to the situation, but he would definitely only take care of the present and send them away.

Could he remind them to come back tomorrow to continue?

"White face, what are you looking at!" Another man glared at Lu Zheng fiercely.

Lu Zheng smiled and looked away.

These guys are humans, not ghosts, and there are people passing by outside the door from time to time. Lu Zheng doesn't want to take action in public and cause a lawsuit. If it is strictly investigated, he is an illegal resident.

"Humph!"

Seeing Lu Zheng look away, the man snorted triumphantly, then turned lewdly to Liu Qingyan, "Little lady, where are you from? What's your name?"

Liu Qingyan shrank back, and Old Man Liu also looked up.

"Third!" The leader glared at the lustful man.

"Hehe, just asking, I don't mean anything else." The man stopped talking awkwardly.

It took Old Man Liu a full half an hour to remove the chill from the four men, well, at least they felt it was removed.

"Thank you, doctor, I am very grateful." The leader cupped his hands and smiled.

"You're welcome, you're welcome, a doctor's heart is benevolent, but you should not go to those colder places in the future, if you get cold again, it will only become more and more troublesome." Old Man Liu hurriedly returned the salute.

"Thank you for the doctor's reminder, we will never go to that kind of place again in the future."

The leader replied, exchanged glances with his three brothers, and all laughed happily.

Now that the illness had been treated, the third seemed to want to harass Liu Qingyan again, but he was pulled by the leader, and then reluctantly left with them.

"Okay, it's getting late, let's go back quickly." Old Man Liu stretched his old waist.

"What kind of people are those guys?" Lu Zheng frowned and asked.

"Grave robbers." Old Man Liu replied casually, "I have been practicing medicine for decades, and I will never mistake the feeling of that chill with death energy."

"Lu Lang, these people are not simple. Their bodies are full of Blood Qi. Although they have not yet cultivated Martial Blood Qi, they are not people that ordinary people can deal with. Although you have cultivated Daoist True Qi, if you face them head-on, I guess you are not their opponent!"

Old Man Liu looked at Lu Zheng with a deep gaze, and hurriedly persuaded, "It's better to have less trouble than more. They shouldn't be from Tonglin County. Now that they are well, they should leave overnight. Let's not cause trouble."

The Liu family all knew that Lu Zheng had obtained a martial arts cultivation method, but they never thought that Lu Zheng had cultivated Martial Blood Qi in just a few days, even before Daoist True Qi.

"Okay, don't worry, I won't be impulsive."

Letting the shop assistant clean up the shop, the three of them returned to Tong Yi Alley together.

As usual, Lu Zheng was invited to have a meal again. When he went home, Aunt Liu rarely joked, "Why does it feel like this is just a place to sleep? Young master, when will you be able to sleep in the Liu family?"

Back home, Lu Zheng did not travel back to modern times, but sensed it, and then added a wisp of Light of Luck to his physique, a wisp of Light of Luck to his spirit, two wisps of Light of Luck to his Blood Qi, and a wisp of Light of Luck to his True Qi.

There were still four wisps of Light of Luck in the Jade Seal.

In addition, spirit is a physical attribute that Lu Zheng has recently discovered can be strengthened independently, and he consumed a wisp at that time.

Similar to physique, spirit also comprehensively strengthens Lu Zheng's spiritual power, including vigorous energy, concentration, enhanced memory, and resistance to being confused.

Too comprehensive, a wisp of Light of Luck still can't add much strength, but it just fits Lu Zheng's idea of ​​all-round development as a hexagonal warrior.

Changing into a short outfit suitable for fighting, Lu Zheng took the Embroidered Spring Blade and sat under the Persimmon Tree in the yard.

Just as he turned into the entrance of Tong Yi Alley, Lu Zheng glanced back and saw the fourth of the four men, hiding in the crowd not far away, secretly following them.

Breaking into a house to commit a crime is different from killing someone in the street. With solid evidence, just like when Lu Zheng escorted the Flower Plucking Thief to the authorities that day, even if he killed them, he wouldn't have to worry about legal trouble.

"Boss, we've located the place. A family of four plus two old servants. Besides that pretty little lady, there's also a young girl, and the old man's wife is also a mature woman with lingering charm!"

"Hehe!"

"I like virgins!"

"Leave the old ginger to me!"

"What nonsense are you talking about? Of course, brothers take turns!"

"Hahaha!"

"Hurry up, let's have some fun for half the night, and then we'll leave overnight."

"What about the stuff?"

"Send it out of the city first!"

"Alright!"

The sky gradually darkened, the moon was bright, and the stars were sparse, making it a rare bright moonlit night.

Lu Zheng leaped up and landed directly on the Persimmon Tree in the backyard. In the dim light, he could see the lights on in the Liu family's backyard, and he could hear Liu Qingquan shouting something.

An hour later.

Tonglin County gradually quieted down, and families turned off their lights to rest.

The Liu family was the same, having fallen into darkness a quarter of an hour earlier.

Just then, Lu Zheng's eyes narrowed as he saw four figures silently slip into the front yard of the Liu residence.

Lu Zheng could see clearly that these four were indeed skilled. If he hadn't cultivated... exchanged for Martial Blood Qi, relying only on his proficient knife skills, he might not have been able to win.

But now...

"Third and Fourth, go and take care of the two old servants first, then split up and act separately, making sure they don't make a sound."

"Don't worry, Boss, tonight we're going to have some fun!"

Third and Fourth crouched down and crept towards the side room in the front yard together.

Just as they approached the side room within five feet...

"Swish!"

Lu Zheng, who had already quietly sneaked onto the eaves of the Liu family's front yard, drew his Embroidered Spring Blade, holding it behind him to prevent reflection, and struck down.

Under the moonlight, a blade light like a bolt of white silk flashed and disappeared.

"Ah!"

Third screamed, clutching his hands and rolling to the side, scattering blood along the way.

Lu Zheng moved like lightning in an instant, slashing three times in quick succession, severing the tendons of Third's hands and the tendon of his right foot in the blink of an eye.
