As soon as he finished speaking, he saw his master glanced at him coldly, and that look made him feel creepy.
Could it be that something unexpected happened again? I was puzzled, but I didn't dare to ask again.
The master always attaches unexpected importance to the ghost doctor's affairs. I thought he would wait until night before coming back, but he came back before half a day. I guess something unexpected really happened.
But, what happened? Did the ghost doctor not treat the master well
The two men felt uneasy as they watched their master, with a gloomy face, walk into the room and close the door without saying a word.
After a long while, the two looked at each other, walked out of the yard and talked in a low voice.
"What do you think happened?" Gray Wolf asked Yingyi.
Ying Yi pondered and said, "It must be related to the ghost doctor, otherwise the master's face wouldn't be so ugly."
"Just tell me! We were not allowed to follow earlier. If we had followed secretly, we would have known what happened to the master and the ghost doctor by now!"
After thinking for a while, Ying Yi lowered his voice and said, "How about this, you go out and ask around? Where has the master been since we came back? And where did the ghost doctor go? We have people in Liudao City too, so this matter won't be hard to investigate."
"Investigate what happened to the master today? This... is not good, right?" Gray Wolf said with difficulty: "If the master finds out, we will be in trouble!"
"You are the master's attendant, and I am the master's shadow guard. You see the master's face is so grim when he came back. Shouldn't we find out what happened? What's more, this matter is most likely related to the ghost doctor. If you don't dare to check the master's whereabouts today, then check the ghost doctor's."
Hearing what he said, it seemed to make some sense, so Gray Wolf nodded: "Okay, I'll be back soon."
He took a few steps but then stopped, glanced at Ying Yi, and asked, "Why don't you go? You can go for this, too!"
Yingyi glanced at him and said, "I have to stay here to guard the master!"
"I can also stay here to guard the master, and you go and check, so that I won't be the one to suffer again." The Gray Wolf came back and motioned him to go.
"You're really not going?"
"No!" Gray Wolf shook his head, thinking that this was not a good job.
"I'll go if you don't want to, but don't ask me when you come back."
"Why?"
Ying Yi walked out and said, "Because I'm only investigating ghost doctors." If he only investigates ghost doctors, it won't matter even if the master finds out.
"Treacherous!" Gray Wolf cursed softly, watched him walk away, and then returned to the yard to guard.
On the other side, in the alley
Fengjiu stepped on the waiter's back, leaned over and played with the dagger in her hand, looking at the pale and frightened face of the waiter lying on the ground.
"Where did you take my mount?"
"W-what mount? I, I don't know... ah!"
Before he could finish his words, a shrill scream was heard.
The dagger pierced the back of the young man lying on the ground, and blood gushed out immediately. The shopkeeper who had caught up with him was so frightened that he trembled and looked at Fengjiu.
"Sir, we can talk it out, but please don't kill anyone."
Fengjiu pulled out the dagger and wiped the blood on the waiter's face. Her soft voice was somewhat nonchalant, yet chillingly cold.
