Great Wei scholar

The oil lamp did not know when it went out.

Subconsciously looking out the window, it was still a big night.

Glancing at the moonlight, uh... not sure when it will appear.

But looking at the night, it shouldn't have been too long.

At the moment, Xu Qingxiao was resting on the bed. What happened that day had some ups and downs, and her spirit was always tense, so she had to take a good rest.

Then Xu Qingxiao closed his eyes.

Soon fell asleep.

In the blink of an eye, two hours passed.

Two hours later.

As the sunlight refracted, Xu Qingxiao gradually opened his eyes.

Looking out the window, the sky is clear.

Two hours of sleep is enough.

For a high-level martial artist, one or two hours of sleep a day can keep him energetic.

At the ninth grade, you don't even need to sleep.

This is the benefit of practicing martial arts.

After a simple wash.

Xu Qingxiao walked out of the room, bathed in the golden sun, practiced his fists and stretched his muscles and bones.

Then he left the house.

He is going to find Dr. Zhao.

Xu Qingxiao felt a little guilty when he heard from his colleagues yesterday that Dr. Zhao had been punished.

Everything is caused by oneself.

If you don't pay attention to it, it seems that you are ungrateful.

On the way, Xu Qingxiao took out the few silver taels left and bought a lot of things. Although the things were not particularly good, they were still in his heart.

That's it.

Three quarters later.

Xu Qingxiao came to the pharmacy.

It's just that compared to the past, Dr. Zhao's pharmacy is quite lively.

Today is a bit depressed.

Ping'an County is not big, good and bad things can be spread quickly.

The fact that Dr. Zhao was arrested by the Yamen and tortured to extract a confession must have been spread.

What the common people are most afraid of is getting involved in a lawsuit, so there are a lot fewer guests.

This is also impossible.

But the more so, the more guilty Xu Qingxiao felt.

Some hesitated, not knowing whether to enter or not.

But at this moment, the apprentices in the pharmacy saw Xu Qingxiao.

He greeted him immediately.

"Master Qingxiao, you are really here, the shopkeeper welcomes you."

Xu Qingxiao was a little surprised when the voice sounded.

Chapter 11: Zhou Xiucai, Confucianism

Ping An County.

Zhao's Pharmacy.

Xu Qingxiao was a little surprised as the shop assistant shouted.

"The shopkeeper invites me?"

Xu Qingxiao was a little curious, he walked in with his things.

"That's right, the shopkeeper is very good at predicting things. He said you would come today, but I didn't expect you to come."

The man opened his mouth, took the gift from Xu Qingxiao, and said respectfully.

"Where is the shopkeeper?"

Xu Qingxiao asked.

"The shopkeeper is recuperating upstairs, you follow me."

The man led Xu Qingxiao upstairs.

The latter followed.

Soon, they came to the second floor.

"Sir, Lord Qingxiao is here."

When they came to the door, the clerk yelled, and a weak voice came from the closed door.

"Please come in."

The voice was weak, and Xu Qingxiao felt even more guilty.

Pushing open the door, Dr. Zhao appeared in front of him on the sickbed.

He was very weak, lying on the bed with a white cloth tied around his head, trying to get up by supporting himself.

"Doctor Zhao, don't get up."

Xu Qingxiao walked over quickly and supported him.

"It's okay."

Taking a closer look, Dr. Zhao's face was pale and looked very weak.

But after a short look, there were brand marks on Dr. Zhao's chest.

This was caused by iron scorching. Although it was bandaged, a little bit could be seen vaguely. The white cloth was soaked with black blood. One could imagine how tortured Dr. Zhao had been.

For a split second, Xu Qingxiao felt guilty and angry at the same time.

"Son of a bitch."

Xu Qingxiao clenched his fists, and he cursed from the bottom of his heart, Dr. Zhao is a doctor with a good reputation, he usually saves lives and heals the wounded, but now that he is over [-], he is still being tortured.

How can this make Xu Qingxiao not angry.

Hearing Xu Qingxiao's voice, Dr. Zhao immediately pressed Xu Qingxiao's hand, shook his head and said.

"It's over, it's all over, it's good to survive."

Doctor Zhao said weakly.

After saying this, Xu Qingxiao also calmed down a little.

"Doctor Zhao, I, Xu, owed you this matter. I will always remember this kindness in my heart."

At that moment, Xu Qingxiao opened her mouth, full of apologies.

"Don't feel indebted. In fact, I didn't confess to you. I know that once the confession is made, they will not let me go."

"Covering up the crime is not a small crime. A verbal promise is always just a blank sheet of paper. I'm not doing it for you, but more for myself."

"Besides, you didn't do anything wrong. It's normal to want to survive, but the good thing is that we survived this calamity."

Dr. Zhao waved his hand. He was very open-minded, and it was a good thing to survive.

As for not confessing, it was mainly for myself.

He is not a three-year-old child, so he naturally does not believe what the people from Nanyu Mansion say.

"In any case, I have to thank you."

Xu Qingxiao understood this truth, but still thanked her from the bottom of her heart.

But soon, Dr. Zhao's voice continued to sound.

"Master Cheng should have told you about the disadvantages of different techniques, right?"

He suddenly spoke and mentioned this matter.

Xu Qingxiao knew what Dr. Zhao meant, so he didn't answer, but remained silent.

"Forget it, everyone has their own calamity, and there is no way for you to go on this road in order to survive."

"However, Qingxiao, if one day, if you really can't control yourself, sometimes you have to make a good choice for the sake of innocent people, otherwise it will be my whole life's fault."

When Dr. Zhao spoke, he was also very tangled in his heart.

In fact, he originally wanted to confess to Xu Qingxiao, but if it wasn't for the benevolence of the doctor, and because he was afraid that more innocent people would be involved, he would have already said it.

Especially after knowing the true horror of the strange art, Dr. Zhao started to get entangled.

If one day, Xu Qingxiao really turns into a demon, then Xu Qingxiao will not be the only one who dies.

But many innocent people.

Because of this, he stayed up all night.

After all, doctors don't heal people's hearts.

"Doctor Zhao, don't worry, if there is such a time, I won't hurt the innocent."

Xu Qingxiao nodded.

He understood what Dr. Zhao was worried about.

But if one day, I really can't control it, I won't let myself transform into a demon like this.

Hurt the innocent, Xu Qingxiao couldn't do it.

After receiving Xu Qingxiao's reply, Dr. Zhao nodded. Although he didn't know whether Xu Qingxiao was true or not, it was enough to have such an answer.

But soon, Xu Qingxiao's voice also sounded.

"Doctor Zhao, let me ask you something, do you understand Confucianism?"

Xu Qingxiao opened his mouth and asked Dr. Zhao.

The Tiandi Wengong in my mind may be able to suppress the demon seed, but I don't know how to open it.

However, Xu Qingxiao guessed that it had something to do with Confucianism, so he asked.

"Confucianism?"

Dr. Zhao was a little curious.

"Yes, Confucianism."

Xu Qingxiao nodded.

Immediately afterwards, Dr. Zhao shook his head and said.

"I don't know much about Confucianism, but Mr. County Private School should know that he is also a well-known scholar in our county. Although he didn't win the exam, he is also a scholar."

"What are you asking about this?"

Dr. Zhao asked curiously.

"Doctor Zhao, I have strange magic in my body, which belongs to evil spirits, and Confucianism is righteous, and it may be able to suppress the demonic nature in my body. Of course, this is my guess."

Facing Dr. Zhao, Xu Qingxiao did not lie, the truth is the truth.

As soon as he said this, a trace of surprise flashed in Dr. Zhao's eyes, and he said slowly after thinking about it for a while.

"If you say that, it's really possible. I often heard Zhou Xiucai say that a scholar who accumulates energy is immune to evil."
