The road is right under your feet

Chapter 243 Monster?

She took a deep breath and said, "I will give you a chance to prove your innocence. Whether you can convince this princess and the people is entirely up to you."

Shirahoshi nodded, "Thank you."

Bai Xing did not make things difficult for others. He walked straight towards the crying woman on the ground. He took a step forward and his spiritual consciousness immediately invaded the woman's mind, forcing her to "wake up".

The woman looked up in confusion, but met a pair of dark eyes. Those eyes seemed to have magical power that made her lose her mind.

At this moment, Bai Xing stood up, called the child beside him, brought him to the woman, and asked, "Is he your son?"

The woman looked down and shook her head: "No, he is not my son. I don't have a son. My son is gone. My son is dead."

As she spoke, a tear silently fell from the corner of her eye.

"Oh, I remember now. She is Aunt Wang from the east of the city. She is a widow. Her husband and son have been dead for many years." Someone in the crowd said.

"Now that you mention it, it seems to be her. I heard that her husband was a captain. Unfortunately, the good times didn't last long. Not long after they got married, her husband died on the battlefield. At that time, she was pregnant and the child was also gone. Her parents-in-law cried every day, and she died within a few years. It was pitiful."

Everyone sighed. Bai Xing paused, then changed the subject and asked a different question: "What did you feed the child last night? Why did you do that?"

"What did you feed the child? It's a soup made from white koji. It looks like poison, but it won't kill the child. It will just make him suffer."

"Why do you do this?" she murmured, and suddenly she felt a bursting pain in her brain and groaned, covering her head.

Bai Xing's expression changed slightly, and his spiritual consciousness probed out.

At this time, Xu Jie said: "It's bad, she has been put under a forbidden spell. As long as she opens her mouth, she will have a splitting headache and bleed from all seven orifices and die."

Bai Xing's eyes darkened, "Is there any way to remove the forbidden spell?"

"A mere low-level spell can't faze me."

Bai Xing was in a state of panic as she saw Aunt Wang's condition becoming increasingly serious. Blood was already oozing from the corners of her eyes, but the magic had already been cast and could not be interrupted. In a moment, she would tell the truth.

"Why don't you remove the curse?"

Xujie immediately stammered, "This, that, Master, my strength is almost exhausted, I can't...unlock it."

"You absorbed so much of my spiritual energy and thunder power, and you told me that it was about to run out?"

Xujie immediately lowered his head, "Master... Master, have you forgotten that you were attacked by the backlash before, and I used a lot of strength to barely suppress it."

White Star: "......"

Shirahoshi sighed, "How much strength do you need? Pump it."

Xujie's eyes lit up, "Not too much, just a little bit is good. It would be even better if there is the power of thunder."

"Okay." As he said that, Bai Xing quietly activated the power of thunder. Then, a suction force came from the ring, sucking in Bai Xing's energy.

The feeling of having one's strength sucked away was not pleasant. Shirahoshi endured the discomfort and allowed the virtual world to absorb it.

Xu Jie also knew Bai Xing's physical condition, so he didn't dare to inhale too much, just a little bit more.

Then, Bai Xing saw Xu Jie's small figure appear between the two of them. Bai Xing's face changed, and just as he was about to say something, he heard Xu Jie say, "Don't worry, Master. As long as I don't want them to, they can't see me."

Bai Xing's expression relaxed, and then he saw the virtual world floating over and pointing a finger at his forehead.

After a while, Aunt Wang gradually calmed down and the bloodstains disappeared at the same time.

At the same time, in a dark cave outside the city, a masked figure suddenly opened his eyes and spat out blood.

He raised his hand to wipe away the blood, "I underestimated you, miracle doctor."

His eyes were looking straight in the direction of Xunfeng City, as if he could see the white stars through layers of obstacles. His eyes were dark and chilling, like a poisonous snake.

Bai Xing's eyelids jumped, "Is it all right now?"

"Master, it's just a low-level forbidden spell. It can be destroyed violently."

"Are you sure you won't hurt her here?" Bai Xing pointed to his head.

"No, no, Master, you have to trust my skills."

Bai Xing held his forehead with his hand and said, "What have I learned from Qiqi every day?"

It took less than a minute from Aunt Wang holding her head and groaning to her current recovery. Everyone had no idea what had happened. They only saw Aunt Wang holding her head and crying out in pain a few times as if she had a headache.

However, considering Aunt Wang’s previous crazy behavior, no one took it too seriously.

All I heard was her saying: "It was an immortal who told me that the fifth princess would come to visit with a miracle doctor soon. The miracle doctor is a monster and anyone can kill him. As long as I do as he tells me and bring disgrace upon the monster, he will help me save the souls of my husband and children and allow them to have a good life in their next life."

"I didn't believe it at first, but I didn't expect that the princess really came the next day, and brought a guy who claimed to be a miracle doctor. Ever since I saw Lao Zhang recover, I knew that this story was probably true. The miracle doctor was a monster. I don't know what kind of magic he used, and how many people died because of it."

Bai Xing's mouth twitched. This is too easy to deceive. He has been dead for so many years. He should have been reincarnated long ago. Why wait until now? Then he will become an evil ghost or a resentful ghost?

Wait, are there such things as ghosts here? Shirahoshi fell into deep thought.

In that case, is Feng Yi, who is only a soul left, considered a ghost?

That's called a spirit body, so it shouldn't count...right?

They say that ghosts have green faces, fangs, and no feet, and are ghosts. Feng Yi is no different from ordinary people except that he has no body, so he shouldn't be considered a ghost, right?

Before Bai Xing could think deeply, everyone looked at Bai Xing differently.

"Is he really a monster? Forget it. What kind of medical skills are so powerful? Can they produce immediate results? Have you ever heard of it?"

They shook their heads and said, "I think this is probably true."

"..."

The discussions grew louder and louder, and the corners of Shirahoshi's mouth twitched.

Seeing that the situation was not good, Wu Qingshuang had to intervene.

The discussion gradually died down, and Bai Xing continued to ask: "Have you ever seen what he looks like? Is he a boy or a girl?"

Aunt Wang shook her head. "No, he/she was wearing a mask and a large cape. He/she looked very tall. I couldn't tell whether the voice was male or female, nor could I tell the age."

"What's going on with them?" Bai Xing continued.

Aunt Wang followed Bai Xing's line of sight and was confused for a moment. "They are the allies I found. The immortal said that if they can subdue the monster, they can fulfill one wish."

"Oh~" Bai Xing curled the corners of his mouth and snapped his fingers, and Aunt Wang's eyes instantly regained their spirits.

She opened her mouth, completely unaware of what had just happened, and yet it seemed as if something big had happened.
