The Transmigrated Farm Girl Has a Cheat Code

Chapter 84 Meeting

When Cheng Lin left with his sword, the room was in complete disarray. The bandits had been beaten and lay sprawled on the ground, none of them dead, but their legs broken, screaming in agony.

Cheng Lin thought to himself: I've saved this girl some trouble again, so I guess she'll have to send me two jars of wine in return. Although the master is the one giving the orders, I'm the one actually carrying them out.

…………

When Lin Yan and her group re-entered the mountain path, everyone became wary. Lin Yan also opened her eyes, worried that the bandits would attack again.

However, the convoy traveled safely the whole way without anything happening.

Lin Yan raised an eyebrow. She activated her supernatural ability, connecting with the grass on the ground to find out where the group of people on the mountain had gone.

After a while, Lin Yan opened her eyes with a strange expression and burst out laughing.

The bandits had been beaten up on their own turf and were still lying on the ground.

Lin Yan thought of Cheng Lin and the other person who had gone ahead, and guessed that it was them.

It's lamentable that these bandits offended someone they couldn't afford to mess with.

Little did they know that the bandits had no intention of offending them, and they were inexplicably purged.

With everyone safely out of the mountain, Manager Wang was also somewhat puzzled:

There are indeed bandits on this road, but for some reason, they haven't appeared even once this time. Could it be that they think our group is too dangerous to mess with?

…………

Zhao Yuncheng's carriage had already arrived in Rong'an County.

A man dressed in a blue robe and with a kind face stood at the city gate. When he saw Cheng Lin driving the carriage over, his eyes lit up and he went to greet him.

"master!"

Zhao Yuncheng lifted the curtain. "Mu Yu, have you found any trace of Li Zhongwei?"

Mu Yu bowed before raising his head and saying, "Reporting to Master, I can confirm that Li Zhongwei appeared in Rong'an County. He showed up several times at a restaurant called Jufulou. I inquired and found that this restaurant had given out information about a month ago that it wanted to sell a century-old Ganoderma lucidum."

Zhao Yuncheng lowered his eyes in thought, "A hundred-year-old Ganoderma? That can certainly attract the attention of the famous doctors in the vicinity. It seems the news is true."

Did they sell it?

Upon hearing his master's question, Mu Yu's expression turned somewhat strange, and he replied, "It's sold! But the buyer isn't Li Zhongwei."

Zhao Yuncheng looked up, somewhat puzzled, "Oh?"

"They sold it to the Yu family of Xinglintang."

“The Yu family…” Zhao Yuncheng chuckled, “If you’re looking for money, selling to the Yu family would be a good option. No matter how good Li Zhongwei’s medical skills are, there are people who don’t need him.”

"That's all the news. There's been no sign of Li Zhongwei for several days now. I don't know where he's staying. However, I've arranged for someone to be stationed at the entrance of the county town. He hasn't left Rong'an County."

Zhao Yuncheng nodded. "Since it's in Rong'an County, we'll find it eventually."

"Where is Xiao Jingzhi?"

Mu Yu pursed her lips. "Uh... His Highness the Crown Prince injured his leg when he crossed the mountains to enter Daliang. He's currently recuperating at the inn."

"Pfft!" Cheng Lin couldn't help but burst out laughing.

Zhao Yuncheng glanced at him, and Cheng Lin shut up, his face turning cold again.

Mu Yu glanced at him, then turned and complained, "Those two brothers surnamed Chen are so unreliable. They actually took Prince Xiao hiking, with Prince Xiao's health..."

Zhao Yuncheng lowered his eyes and said coldly, "No matter how well Xiao Jingzhi is protected, it's useless. If we can't find Li Zhongwei, he probably won't live for more than a few years."

"Let's go to the inn where they're staying first!"

"Yes!" The two accepted the order, and Mu Yu also got into the carriage and sat next to Cheng Lin.

…………

It was evening when Lin Yan and her group finally arrived in Rong'an County.

Lin Yan and Lin Yu got off the car, said goodbye to Manager Wang, and left. It was difficult to find a car to go home in the evening, and the city gates were about to close.

Lin Yan took Lin Yu directly to the inn, thinking they would stay there for one night and go back the next day.

When the two arrived at the inn, there were no superior rooms available, and only one bed in the other rooms. Lin Yan then asked for two ordinary rooms. The inns in Rong'an County were much cheaper, costing only forty coins a night.

At this moment, in the upper room of the inn.

"What kind of expression is that!" Chen Shuo's face was fierce.

"What expression do I have!" Cheng Lin said expressionlessly.

"Humph."

"It was you. You couldn't even protect your own master, and you even got hurt."

"You...!" Chen Shuo was furious, but when he thought of the Crown Prince's injury, he felt very guilty and did not want to argue with Cheng Lin, so he lowered his head and sulked.

Mu Yu and Chen Feng were speechless and facepalmed. Chen Feng explained, "These two are still young and not very mature."

Mu Yu nodded in agreement.

Chen Feng looked at Chen Shuo, who was bickering with Cheng Lin like an elementary school student, and sighed:

"Chen Shuo is talkative, but he admires His Highness the most. He felt really guilty about His Highness's injury. He didn't say anything about his own injury. It wasn't until two days later that I found out he had a large scratch on his back."

Mu Yu chuckled and chirped softly, "That kid Cheng Lin, he's been following his master since he was little, and he's learned to be just as cold-faced and quiet as his master. Actually, he was quite a fun kid..."

"Hahahaha!"

Hearing the other two laughing, Cheng Lin and Chen Shuo turned around abruptly and demanded, "What are you laughing at?!"

Mu Yu turned her head, "I wasn't laughing →_→"

Chen Feng: "Cough cough cough! Why does my throat feel a little itchy? ←_←"

Chen Shuo, Cheng Lin: "Hmph!"

…………

Hearing the commotion outside, Zhao Yuncheng glanced at the outer room, then looked up and said coldly:

"Your two subordinates actually took you hiking. They're pretty bold, aren't they? Aren't they afraid you'll die on the way?"

Xiao Jingzhi smiled helplessly, "After all, they can't get in through the city gates, and there are my uncle's spies everywhere on the road, so there's nothing they can do! They've already done their best and have been taking good care of us!"

"The main problem is that my body is failing me. I won't live for many more years. If things continue like this, my ministers will either turn against me or die a terrible death."

Zhao Yuncheng frowned as he listened, not wanting him to continue, and interrupted, "We already have some clues; Li Zhongwei must be in Rong'an County."

"I heard from Mu Yu that Jufulou bought a century-old Ganoderma lucidum and used it to lure him out. Do you have any good medicine on hand?"

Xiao Jingzhi blinked. "I do have some herbs. Daye is mostly mountainous, with many suitable environments for medicinal herbs to grow, but I didn't bring them with me. I'll have Chen Feng contact someone tomorrow to have them delivered."

Zhao Yuncheng lowered his eyes and said, "I don't know how long this round trip has taken, and I don't know how long Li Zhongwei plans to stay here. Even if we find the person, we have to offer him a price that satisfies him. Otherwise, we can't force him to treat the illness."

“You…” Xiao Jingzhi hesitated for a moment before speaking.

"I have no money!" Zhao Yuncheng admitted without any shame.

Xiao Jingzhi: "…………" Okay, I understand!

Zhao Yuncheng leaned back in his chair, seemingly mocking yet nonchalant, and said, "Who doesn't know that among these sons, I'm the poorest and least favored!"

"Don't you have any plans of your own? The situation between the two countries is so tense, and you're in a very awkward position. It's essential to have some money hidden away," Xiao Jingzhi said worriedly.

Zhao Yuncheng calmly raised his head. "Why should I tell you about my plans?"

Xiao Jingzhi's gentle expression cracked, and he gritted his teeth, saying, "Ha! Fine!"
