Chapter 194 A Book Was Stolen

Then Hou Shi felt her pulse. For a long time, he looked at Yang Zijin's eyes, or asked her to open her mouth.

When Hou Shi stopped, Yang Zijin asked, "Master, how's it going?"

"All Right. I didn't expect you to recover so quickly." Hou Shi looked at Yang Zijin and said.

After hearing this, Yang Zijin couldn't help feeling happy, and then asked, "Do you mean that we can now draw out the Awakening Worm?"

Hou Shi nodded.

Yang Zijin stood up and said to Hou Shi with a smile, "Master, please help us draw out the Awakening Worm."

"Okay." Hou Shi said with a smile.

Yang Zijin nodded and ran outside.

Then she ran to Shuo Ling's room. She walked straight to Shuo Ling's bed, calling Shuo Ling with a smile, "Get up. Get up."

"What's the matter?" Shuo Ling frowned slightly. Then he opened his eyes and sat up.

"The remaining poison in my body has been cleared. Now we can draw the Awakening Worm out." Yang Zijin said with a smile.

After hearing this, Shuo Ling immediately sat up from the bed and said, "Really?"

"It's true, of course." Yang Zijin then said.

At this time, Shuo Ling also quickly got up from the bed, and then led Yang Zijin to Hou Shi's room.

"Here you are." Seeing Shuo Ling took Yang Zijin's hand and strode in, Hou Shi raised his head and asked.

Shuo Ling nodded. "Thank you for your trouble."

"Sit down, please." Hou Shi looked at Shuo Ling and smiled. Then he pointed to the stools on one side and motioned for them to sit down.

Shuo Ling and Yang Zijin sat down.

At this time, Hou Shi put all the things he had prepared on the table one by one. Then he pulled Yang Zijin's hand over and cut Yang Zijin's middle finger with a knife. Later, he put the finger in the jar he had prepared and let the blood flow into the jar.

After a while, Yang Zijin felt something moving in her chest. It must be Awakening Worm running out along the blood.

Sure enough, after a while, Yang Zijin saw a small black bug running out of the wound.

When the little black worm fell into the jar along with the blood, Hou Shi quickly covered the jar. Then he took a piece of cloth from the table and bound up the wound of Yang Zijin's finger.

After drawing out the Awakening Worm in Yang Zijin's body, Hou Shi used the same method to draw out the Awakening Worm in Shuo Ling's body.

There was no difference between the two Awakening Worms. It seemed that the Awakening Worm in Shuo Ling's body was twice as large as that in Yang Zijin's body.

After everything was done, Hou Shi said to them, "Now both of you are very weak. Go back and have a good rest, and you will recover soon."

"Thank you, Master." At this time, Shuo Ling and Yang Zijin said together.

Then they walked out of the room.

At this time, Pei Moning and Runyu also got up. They saw Yang Zijin and Shuo Ling coming out of the house of Hou Shi. They hurriedly ran forward and ask, "What's the matter?"

"Brother, it's OK. The Awakening Worms in our body have been drawn out by Mr. Hou." Yang Zijin smiled slightly at this moment.

After hearing this, Pei Moning couldn't help but shout, "Being drawn out? Very good. When are we going to leave?"

"Brother, we are still very weak. There's some distance from Jiandu. I'm afraid my body can't bear it. So, we plan to stay here for two days. When we're better, we'll leave." Yang Zijin said to Pei Moning.

Hearing this, Pei Moning nodded and said, "Yes, I was so excited that I forgot it."

"Brother, Young Master Run, we will leave first." Yang Zijin then said.

Then they went into Yang Zijin's house first.

Shuo Ling first helped Yang Zijin onto the bed and then covered her body with the quilt.

Then he sat on one side and watched her quietly.

Yang Zijin felt speechless at the moment. "Won't you be bored if you keep staring at me like this?"

"You look so beautiful. How can I feel bored?" Shuo Ling pinched Yang Zijin's nose.

Yang Zijin pretended to be angry and said, "Stop joking. You should go back to have a rest."

"When you fall asleep, I'll leave." Shuo Ling did not take it seriously and said.

"Okay." Yang Zijin said and closed her eyes.

Previously, the Awakening Worm in her body had made her feel unbearable. Later, she rushed back all the way from Xiling.

Because Shuo Ling was in a coma, she had been worried about him. Now they were OK. She could finally have a good rest.

Not long after closing her eyes, Yang Zijin fell asleep with a smile on her face.

At this time, Shuo Ling looked at Yang Zijin and couldn't help kissing her on the cheek.

Then he stared at her with a disconsolate expression on his face.

He didn't expect that the death of Yang Zijin's mother, Princess Nanyang, also had something to do with Chushi Youtian.

It seemed that he needed to recover as soon as possible. After returning to Jing City, there should be a lot of things waiting for him.

Thinking about this, Shuo Ling covered her body with the quilt again, and then stood up and walked outside.

During the two days, Pei Moning went to buy ingredients outside, and asked the cook to make some nutritious foods for Yang Zijin, of course, as well as Shuo Ling.

Every time they ate, Pei Moning watched Shuo Ling and muttered, "You should thank my sister for eating these foods. If you let down her, I will summon others to chop you into meatloaf."

Shuo Ling, however, raised the corners of his mouth slightly, looking at Pei Moning and saying, "I'm afraid you won't have this opportunity."

While saying, he looked fondly at Yang Zijin.

Yang Zijin couldn't help feeling speechless every time they acted like this.

Two days later, Yang Zijin and Shuo Ling almost recovered, and their faces had become quite ruddy.

They said goodbye to the king of witchcraft. Then they left the Witchcraft City.

Thinking of Shuo Ling and Yang Zijin's physical condition, they bought a carriage and let them sit inside.

Pei Moning was responsible for driving the carriage, and Runyu followed behind on the horse.

A carriage and a horse rushed to Jiandu.

In Jing City.

After being ordered by Chushi Youtian, Luoxue visited the mansion of Marquis secretly at night.

He always felt something wrong when he entered the mansion, but he couldn't say it.

Then he looked around and didn't find anyone. Then he was relieved and ran into Shuo Ling's study.

He looked around in the study and found nothing suspicious.

After searching the whole mansion, Luoxue came out of the mansion of Marquis.

What Luoxue didn't know was that he was discovered when he first entered the mansion. Zhou Ji hid his breath and stared at Luoxue secretly.

Then he found out that Luoxue went into the study.

Zhou Ji couldn't help but smile. Marquis Shuo had great foresight. The important things in the study had been hidden by them.

Seeing that Luoxue left the mansion, Zhou Ji just left.

After Luoxue left the mansion of Marquis, he could not help but frown tightly. Now they would fail every time they had a mission. If they continued to fail, it was inevitable that the emperor would be dissatisfied with them.

Thinking of this, Luoxue sighed. Then he flew onto the housetop, running along the roof to Shuo Ling's Bank.

Now he could only start with the bank, hoping to find some clues. If he couldn't find any clues, he would not be able to go back like this.

When he came to the roof of Sijin Bank, Luoxue stopped and then crouched down. He gently lifted the tile on the roof and looked inside along the gap.

At this point, there was a man over 50 years old still checking something, by the light of an oil lamp.

He was the chief of Sijin Bank, Qian Hui.

Luoxue saw that Qian Hui stretched himself and yawned. Then he put down the book in his hand, standing up and walking to the door.

Luoxue flew down from the roof and stood at the door. Then, just when Qian Hui opened the door and saw Luoxue, he was knocked out by Luoxue before he could call out.

Luoxue then dragged him into the house and closed the door tightly.

Then he went over, picked up the book and looked at it.

It said monthly income.

It turned out that Qian Hui was just checking accounts.

Luoxue continued to read. Then he couldn't help but frown slightly. The profit was beyond his imagination.

Then Luoxue read other books. Then Luoxue saw a book on one side, which said, "the branches of Sijin Bank."

Luoxue quickly took this book and looked at it carefully, only to see the names of the branches in each state and city. He looked at it roughly, finding that there were more than 100.

Seeing this, Luoxue couldn't help being stunned. According to the profit, the money in Marquis Shuo's banks was comparable to the money in the treasury. No, no, maybe his money was more.

Luoxue was thinking. At this time, Qian Hui on the side moved and snorted softly.

Seeing this, Luoxue quickly put the book, which included the names of the branches in each state and city, into his arms and jumped out of the window.

At this time, Qian Hui sat up, holding his head with his hand. Then he remembered that he was checking the accounts. He was tired and wanted to go out for a walk. Unexpectedly, he was attacked just as he opened the door.

Thinking of this, Qian Hui quickly stood up and ran to the desk. Finding the account book was still in place, he checked the other books again. Only then did he find that the book including the names of the branches of Sijin Bank was lost.

Qian Hui couldn't help frowning. Who was this person? Why did this person steal the book?

Was the person a competitor? Thinking of this, Qian Hui shook his head. It was impossible. All people knew that the owner of Sijin Bank was Marquis Shuo.

Before, even competitors had to take a detour when they saw him. How could they come to steal the book? Thinking of this, Qian Hui couldn't help but slap his thigh. It was bad. Maybe someone wanted to use this book to do something bad.

So, Qian Hui quickly put the account book in the secret compartment behind him, and ran out of the room quickly to the mansion of Marquis.

At the gate of the mansion, Qian Hui knocked on the door with great force.

When Zhou Ji heard the sound, he quickly came to open the door. Seeing that it was Qian Hui, Zhou Ji couldn't help asking, "It's so late, why are you here, Uncle Qian?"

"Oh, something in Sijin Bank was stolen just now!" Qian Hui gasped and said anxiously when he saw Zhou Ji.

After hearing, Zhou Ji was shocked and asked, "What? Stolen? Who is it? How many valuables have you lost?"

At this time, Qian Hui gasped and waved to Zhou Ji, "I didn't lose any valuables."

"No? What did you lose?" Zhou Ji asked with a puzzled face.

Then Qian Hui said to Zhou Ji. "It's a book including the names of the branches of Sijin Bank."

"Book?" Zhou Ji couldn't help but close his eyes and thought.
