At night, return to the Peddler, who would have bruisers from having been beaten by Zhai Chuan's aunt. He will tell that Zhai Chuan ended up taking all the potion that we stole and gave to him, who took all of it and which worked like a laxative in big doses. After finding out, the aunt gave the medicine peddler a hammering. Ask him what the potion is made of.
