Upon entering the city, the group noticed many small apothecaries, selling large quantities of bleeding stop ointment made from Yellow Grass Roots.
The supply of Spiritual Medicine left by the Immortal Rabbit Dragon was running low, and seeing that the quality of these ointments was quite good, Zhu Minglang decided to purchase some as well – after all, they still had to exterminate the Lizard Water Monster.
No sooner had they bought the ointments and stepped out of the shop when they suddenly heard a scream from the direction of the city gate. The crowd of onlookers that had gathered before seemed to have been frightened by something and scattered in all directions!
Zhu Minglang turned to look back. Although there was some distance, he could still clearly make out what had happened.
There was a large pool of blood at the city gate, and the team of guards stationed there lay dead in the blood.
