On this day, the sun shines through the clouds on the grassland, and the breeze blows gently.

Among the Xianbei tribes, Hong Gang no longer pretended to be sick. He walked firmly to Tuoba Tianlong's tent.

Tuoba Tianlong was sitting on a tiger leather chair, holding a scroll of parchment in his hand, his brows slightly frowned, as if thinking about something important.

Hong Gang walked into the tent with an excited expression on his face and said loudly: "Chief, I'm cured of illness!"

Tuoba Tianlong heard the sound and raised his head suddenly, with a trace of surprise flashing in his eyes.

He looked at Hong Gang carefully, and saw that Hong Gang had a bright eyes, a rosy complexion and a full of energy. His previous illness had long disappeared.

Tuoba Tianlong put down the parchment book in his hand, stood up, strode to Hong Gang, held his shoulder tightly with both hands, and a gratified smile appeared on his face, and said, "Okay! I'm so happy to see you in such spirit!"

Hong Gang's face was full of gratitude, and he looked at Tuoba Tianlong with a firm look, and said, "Thank you for your concern during this period of time. I can't wait to contribute to the tribe!"

Tuoba Tianlong laughed, patted Hong Gang on the back, and said, "Okay! Our tribe just needs a warrior like you!"

Hong Gang laughed cheerfully and said, "Chief, this is thanks to Mr. Liusong! Everything is done by Mr. Liusong's medical skills. He gave me some pills. If you are sick, you can cure your illness, and if you are not sick, you can strengthen your body. After I took it, my body recovered quickly."

Tuoba Tianlong's eyes lit up and he couldn't wait to say, "There is such a magical pill?"

His eyes were filled with anticipation and joy.

Hong Gang nodded heavily, with a very serious expression, "Chief, it's true! Mr. Liusong's medical skills are indeed very clever. I have personally experienced the wonder of this pill."

As he said that, he carefully took out an exquisite small cloth bag from his arms, held it in both hands and handed it to Tuoba Tianlong.

Tuoba Tianlong took the cloth bag and showed an admiration on his face, "Hong Gang, it is a blessing for the tribe to have this heart."

Hong Gang lowered his head slightly and said modestly: "Captain, this is all I should have done. If the leader had not been taking care of him all the time, I would not have been today."

Tuoba Tianlong opened the cloth bag, took out a pill, put it in the palm of his hand and looked at it carefully, with curiosity and thoughts in his eyes.

"The pill smells a bit fragrant." Tuoba Tianlong murmured to himself.

Hong Gang explained from the side: "Chief, the smell of this pill is also very unique. After I took it, I felt that my body was full of strength." His face was full of affirmation of the effect of the pill.

Tuoba Tianlong put the pill back on the cloth bag and patted Hong Gang on the shoulder, "Hong Gang, if you bring such a treasure to this leader, I will definitely not forget your contribution."

Hong Gang looked at Tuoba Tianlong eagerly and said earnestly: "Chief, you might as well try one now."

Tuoba Tianlong smiled heartily and responded without hesitation: "Okay!"

He took a pill from the bag and put it into his mouth.

Tuoba Tianlong chewed it carefully, and a hint of surprise appeared on his face, then a satisfied expression appeared, and he praised: "Well, this tastes so good."

Seeing Tuoba Tianlong satisfied, Hong Gang was happy in his heart. The smile on his face became brighter and excitedly said: "It's good that the leader likes it. I hope this pill will be of great benefit to the leader."

Tuoba Tianlong patted Hong Gang on the shoulder and said with a smile: "Hong Gang, you have the heart."

After receiving praise from Tuoba Tianlong, Hong Gang said respectfully: "Chief, that subordinate is back first."

Tuoba Tianlong nodded slightly, and Hong Gang slowly withdrew from the tent.

But after he just went out, the smile on his face could no longer be suppressed, and his excitement was beyond words.

His eyes were flashing with cunning and expectation, and he felt secretly proud: "As long as Tuoba Tianlong takes all the pills, he will be poisoned slowly. Humph, my plan will be realized by then, and this Xianbei tribe will eventually belong to me!"

The more he thought about it, the more excited he became, and his steps became lighter, as if he had seen the glorious scene after his success.

Hong Gang was walking excitedly on the way back to his tent. Suddenly, his steps stopped and his thoughts drifted back to the day he had a secret conversation with Anqingli.

Hong Gang and An Qingli met in a secret corner.

Anqingli lowered his voice and said with a gloomy expression: "Hong Gang, if we want to replace Tuoba Tianlong, we have to think of a complete solution."

Hong Gang frowned and looked thoughtful, responding: "This is not easy, Tuoba Tianlong is very cautious."

An Qingli's eyes flashed with a trace of viciousness, and he leaned close to Hong Gang and said, "I have an idea. We can bribe Mr. Liusong and let him poison Tuoba Tianlong, so that he can kill Tuoba Tianlong without any effort."

Hong Gang was a little hesitant at first, with a tangle in his eyes, but soon, greed and ambition took the upper hand, his eyes became firm, his mouth raised, and he said, "This is indeed a good way."

At this moment, Hong Gang, who came back to his senses from his memories, once again showed a smug smile on his face, and he accelerated his pace and walked forward, thinking in his heart: "Soon, this Xianbei tribe is mine."

Hong Gang speeded up and returned to his tent, sat on the couch, and continued to recall his conspiracy with Anqingli in his mind.

Anqingli smiled sinisterly at that time, revealing a yellow teeth: "When Tuoba Tianlong dies, there will be no leader in the tribe. With your prestige and my operation, this leader is the position of you!"

When Hong Gang heard this, his heartbeat couldn't help but speed up, and his face was filled with excitement and his fists were clenched tightly: "Okay! After the matter is done, I will definitely not treat you badly."

"That's natural, we're grasshoppers on a rope." An Qingli's eyes flashed, and he was calculating. "But, you must not let go of any noise in this matter, otherwise we will both die without a place to bury."

Hong Gang took a deep breath and nodded solemnly: "Don't worry, I know what's going on."

As he thought about it, Hong Gang's lips raised, his eyes full of longing for the future: "Tuoba Tianlong, your death is not far away, and this Xianbei tribe is about to usher in a new master."

Hong Gang was immersed in his thoughts, and An Qingli's flattering and sinister face kept popping up in his mind.

On the other side, Xi Yu and Tuoba Yu continued on their way with a quick horse.

Tuoba Yu frowned, with an anxious and worried look on his face. He kept staring at the front and kept muttering: "Don't encounter anything again along the way, just arrive at his destination as soon as possible."

Xi Yu looked at Tuoba Yu from time to time and easily saw her thoughts.

He showed an undetectable smile and thought to himself that all her thoughts were written on her face.

But he said nothing, but just quietly accelerated the speed of riding.

The sun shone on them, and Tuoba Yu's forehead was covered with sweat, but she didn't bother to wipe it, and her hands tightly clamped the reins.

A trace of care flashed in Xi Yu's eyes, but he still chose to remain silent and let the horse's hooves raise dust.

They rushed all the way and finally arrived in front of an inn. However, a striking "closed business" sign at the entrance made Xi Yu frown and his face full of doubt.

Tuoba Yu looked at the sign, turned to Xi Yu and said, "Don't think about it, let's go to another house to see it." There was a little fatigue and helplessness on her face.

Xi Yu hugged his chest with his hands and said with a depressed look: "It's really strange. This place is beautiful and beautiful. I thought it was a good place, but I didn't expect this inn to close. It seems that we can only leave."

After saying that, he sighed, full of reluctance.

Tuoba Yu patted Xi Yu's shoulder lightly and comforted him: "Don't sigh, maybe there is a better inn waiting for us in front."

Xi Yu was still frowning, looking at the closed inn gate, and said unwillingly: "It's really annoying to have been here all the way, but it's like this."

Tuoba Yu shook his head gently and advised: "Don't be angry, maybe there is something wrong with the store. Let's go quickly and find the next place to rest."

There was a hint of eagerness in her eyes, and she just wanted to continue on the road as soon as possible.

Xi Yu gritted his teeth, kicked the stone under his feet hard, and said, "Okay, then I'll listen to you and keep moving forward. I hope we won't disappoint you in the next place." After that, he turned over and looked angry.

At this moment, a man suddenly came out of the inn.

He was burly, with a stubborn face, with a vigilant look in his eyes, and he asked in a rough voice: "What are you two doing here?"

Xi Yu quickly dismounted with a polite smile on his face and bowed and said, "Brother, we are running all the way. We wanted to rest in this inn, but we saw this closed-door sign. I wonder if it would be convenient for me?"

The man looked up and down Xi Yu and Tuoba Yu, frowned slightly, and said, "This store has been closed and cannot receive you."

Xi Yu hurriedly explained: "Brother, we are so tired. We have not seen any other inns nearby. Do you think we can be compatible?" His eyes were full of expectations.

The man was silent for a while, and Xi Yu and Tuoba Yu looked at him nervously, their hearts twitching. Finally, the man seemed to have made up his mind and said, "Forget it, you are really pitiful, so just stay."

Xi Yu and Tuoba Yu were overjoyed and thanked him repeatedly.

The man took them into the inn and arranged the room. Seeing that the man's face was always ugly, Xi Yu couldn't help asking: "Brother, I saw that you were not in good shape. Why did this good inn close business?"

When the man heard this, he suddenly opened his eyes wide open and said angrily: "Let you not meddle in other people's business! Don't ask what you shouldn't ask!"

Xi Yu was startled by the man's sudden anger and quickly smiled and said, "Brother, don't be angry. I was just curious and asked casually. If there is any offense, please forgive me."

The man snorted coldly, turned his head away, and ignored Xi Yu.

Seeing this, Tuoba Yu gently pulled La Xiyu's sleeve and whispered: "Don't ask, since we have settled down, don't annoy others anymore."

Xi Yu nodded and said no more. But he couldn't help but think: This man was so angry, and there must be something behind the closure of business.

In the evening, after Xi Yu and Tuoba Yu had used simple meals, they were ready to go back to their room to rest.

When I passed by the man's room, I heard a faint sigh from inside.

The doubts in Xi Yu's heart became increasingly intense, but it was difficult to ask questions again. He could only return to the room with full of questions and discuss with Tuoba Yu that it would be better to leave early tomorrow morning, so as not to cause trouble again.

Late at night, Xi Yu got up to go to the toilet. When he passed by the man's room, he heard the man's heavy sigh again.

He couldn't help but slow down, and then he heard the man muttering to himself.

"Oh, I have checked the days I have long ago. I originally planned to die today. But tomorrow is a good day, so let's die tomorrow." The man's voice was filled with despair and helplessness, as if the candlelight of life was shaking in the wind.

Xi Yu was shocked and couldn't help but approach the door, wanting to hear what was going on.

The man continued, "I made some money today and I will leave it to my brother. In this world, he is the one I can't rest assured about." At this point, the man's voice was a little choked.

Xi Yu frowned, his face full of shock and sympathy. He hesitated for a while, and finally raised his hand and knocked on the door lightly.

The man was stunned and asked in a trembling voice: "Who?"

Xi Yu took a deep breath and said, "Brother, it's me, the guest living here. Brother, don't be unwilling to think about it. There is nothing in the world that cannot be overcome." His tone was sincere and anxious, his brows were tightly locked, and his face was full of worry.

The man was silent for a moment, and replied hoarsely: "Don't worry about me, this is my life."

Xi Yu hurriedly said, "Brother, your life is yours, how can you give up easily? Tell me what happened, maybe there will be a turning point."

His eyes were staring at the door, and his hands were unconsciously clenched into fists.
