Chapter 162: Medium Scheme
After a few days, the situation in Guiye City was stable, and Jiang Chao's subordinates had successfully taken over various affairs in the city. Due to the successive battles, Jiang Chao's army suffered a lot of losses, and the conquest consumed huge manpower and material resources, after some careful consideration, Jiang Chao decided to suspend the pace of the campaign, first rest and recuperate to consolidate the fruits of victory, and then carry out the sword and soldier when the time is ripe.
On this day, Yi Qingfeng and Mu Qianqian, who had nothing to do, were wandering around the city, because Jiang Chao took charge of the government and adopted a lot of rent and interest reduction policies to benefit the people, the people in the city benefited a lot, and every household gradually had a rich and rich appearance, and the commerce and trade in the city gradually flourished, and the cars and horses came and went in an endless stream, which was very different from the previous Ji Peng's power when he was oppressing the people.
Yi Qingfeng was very happy in his eyes, and the two walked slowly on the crowded market. Mu Qianqian said as she walked: "Now it's good, the people in the city are living a good life, and we can be regarded as doing our part." ”
Yi Qingfeng said: "It's a pity that there are endless cows, ghosts, snakes, gods, demons, and monsters in the world, sometimes I really want to find a paradise with you to live in seclusion, put aside all the disturbances in this earthly world, and wander between heaven and earth every day. ”
Mu Qianqian smiled: "Don't be self-absorbed, it is our duty as a martial artist to destroy demons and demons, do you think that God has given us such a good talent to be used to travel the mountains and rivers and squander it at will, but it is not necessary to benefit the people of the world, in my opinion, before the world is peaceful, you should put your good wish to live in seclusion in the mountains and forests for the time being, and think about how to solve the people's upside down is serious." ”
Yi Qingfeng said: "What the lady taught me is that Xiaosheng is delusional again, why don't we go back to practice this time?"
Mu Qianqian's phoenix eyes said horizontally: "I don't work hard and don't be greedy for such a little bit, it's hard to come out and go around, wouldn't it be disappointing to go back after a while?"
Yi Qingfeng said with a smile: "I'm playing with you, let's have a good walk around the city today." He said and moved on. The two of them ate, drank and had fun in the city, and did not reluctantly return to the camp until it was getting dark.
As soon as he walked into the compound, he saw Cui Yan sitting on a stone bench with a sad face, and the ancient medical book was placed next to him.
Mu Qianqian stepped forward and said, "Cui Yan, what are you doing, it's dark, and you're still reading, be careful of your eyes." ”
Cui Yan raised her head and said, "Sister Qianqian, you're back, is it fun in the city?"
Mu Qianqian said: "It's interesting, how boring are you staying at home this day, and you don't go out for a walk, what about Renliang?"
Cui Yan said: "He went drinking with Brother Xiang Chen, and he hasn't come back yet." ”
Mu Qianqian said angrily: "Renliang is really good, go out to drink and be happy by yourself, leave you alone at home and ignore it, he comes back to see me and teach him a good lesson." ”
Cui Yan said: "No need, Sister Qianqian, don't blame Renliang, I want to stay at home and read a book, he asked me if I wanted to play with him, I didn't agree." ”
Mu Qianqian smiled: "Why are you so troubled, how good it is to go out and relax, what's the fun of holding this medical book all day long?"
Cui Yan said: "Sister Qianqian, there are many ancient medical skills recorded in this medical book, but I am only blamed for my lack of understanding and inability to comprehend the mysteries. A few days ago, Aunt Sun, who sells tea in the city, came to see me, and her symptoms are exactly the same as a disease mentioned in this medical book, but I tried everything I could not help her remove the root of the disease. If I could understand all the mysteries in the book, Aunt Sun would not have to endure the pain of illness. ”
Mu Qianqian pondered for a moment and said: "What you said is very reasonable, saving a life is better than creating a seventh-level floating slaughter, saving the dead and helping the injured can be described as immeasurable, you have this heart is really admirable." Speaking of which, this medical book records so many ancient medical skills, we should help Cui Yan go to that secret place as soon as possible, Qingfeng, what do you think?"
Yi Qingfeng said: "Of course, Cui Yan is quite talented in medical skills, and she is interested in this, as the saying goes, a gentleman is a good adult, I raised my hands in favor of escorting her to the secret place." ”
As he was talking, Wu Renliang and Xiang Chen walked in together, and Mu Qianqian said, "Renliang, Qingfeng and I have decided to escort Cui Yan to the secret place tomorrow to learn ancient medicine, do you have no opinion?"
Wu Renliang said: "I have no opinion, Cui Yan and I are here for this, but we will leave tomorrow, is it too urgent?"
Mu Qianqian said: "What's the matter, do you want to continue to stay and spend all your time?"
Wu Renliang hurriedly said: "Qianqian, don't button my hat indiscriminately, I'm just a little better wine, and it's not enough to spend time drinking." ”
Mu Qianqian said: "Okay, don't say more, it's decided, let's leave for the hidden place tomorrow, you should hurry up and pack up at night." He strode into the house.
The next day, everyone said goodbye to Jiang Chao and set off for the hidden place as planned.
The journey went smoothly for several days without any accidents. On this day, the people came to a small town called Stream, and the town was thriving and full of pedestrians. Everyone rushed for several days in a row, and they were inevitably a little tired.
Especially Cui Yan, she is not a martial artist, her body is weak and she is not used to long-distance travel. After a few days of sleeping in the open air, his face was much worse, not to mention, his body also had some symptoms, and he looked sick.
Mu Qianqian looked at it in her eyes and said: "Let's hurry up and find an inn in the town to stay, Cui Yan followed us all the way in the wind and rain, how can she be a weak woman, I see that her pale face is mostly sick, don't end up with ancient medicine without learning, but make herself sick." ”
Wu Renliang hurriedly shook Cui Yan's hand and said: "Oh, why are your hands so cold, you are really sick, and I haven't heard you say a word along the way, what if there is any serious illness?"
Cui Yan smiled and said: "I'm fine, you guys made a big deal, but I just felt a little cold, and I will go to the pharmacy to grab a few pills and eat them." ”
Yi Qingfeng said: "Without further ado, there is an inn in front, let's hurry up and stay in the hotel." As he spoke, he led the group towards the inn.
After settling down, everyone was hungry and ordered some wine and food to satisfy their hunger, Xiang Chen said while eating: "Renliang, how far is it from the secret place here?"
Wu Renliang said: "I don't know the exact number, the map only marks the approximate direction, according to my estimate, there is no March or May that will not arrive." ”
Xiang Chen said: "This is far enough, it will take at least half a year to come and go." ”
Wu Renliang said: "That's not it, it's not so easy to ask for peerless medical skills. "Talking about eating with a stuffy head.
Full of wine and food, Cui Yan went back to the room to rest first, while Wu Renliang and Yi Qingfeng took Cui Yan's prescription to the pharmacy to grab medicine.
The two walked around the town, and finally found a pharmacy, Wu Renliang walked in with the prescription and said, "Shopkeeper, bring me these medicines." ”
An old man about fifty years old with a white goatee hurriedly said, "Please sit down for a while, guest officer, and I will dispense medicine for you." As he spoke, he turned around and grabbed the medicine from the medicine cabinet behind him.
Wu Renliang and Yi Qingfeng let the shopkeeper dispense the medicine without the slightest suspicion. After a while, the shopkeeper handed several large bags of prepared medicine to Wu Renliang and said, "Guest officer, your medicine is ready." ”
Wu Renliang took out the silver taels from his pocket and handed them to the shopkeeper: "Thank you." As he spoke, he picked up the medicine bag and returned to the inn with Yi Qingfeng.
Not long after the two of them walked out, a person suddenly turned out of the back door of the pharmacy, this person was none other than Granny Chunhua, who had intercepted Wu Renliang halfway before and wanted to seize the ancient medical book. At this time, her old face was full of coldness, and her eyes looked at the shopkeeper and said, "Shopkeeper, just now you gave me the medicine I ordered?"
The shopkeeper nodded tremblingly and said like pounding garlic: "My aunt, how dare the little one disobey, all according to your old orders, and please raise your old hand and let the small family go." ”
Mother-in-law Chunhua snorted coldly: "Even if you know each other, your family is tied up in the house, the two boys who bought the medicine just now will definitely come back in two days, and you must do what I tell you again, otherwise don't blame me for sending all your family to the west." ”
The shopkeeper was so frightened that he said, "I must do it, I must do it." ”
Granny Chunhua said with satisfaction: "Very good." As he spoke, he shouted to the inner room: "Mo Yu, let's go." ”
Mo Yu, who was guarding the shopkeeper in the back room, walked out and said, "Yes, Master." With that, the two walked away.
Seeing that the two evil stars were gone, the shopkeeper's hanging heart finally fell to the ground, and he secretly shouted: "My mother, this is what kind of evil has been done in the previous life, and such a disaster has happened." He said that he was in a hurry and hurriedly walked towards the back room.
The old and young in the house were tied up with five flowers, and the shopkeeper wanted to cry without tears: "My God, you are all okay, you are not scared." As he spoke, he quickly untied the ropes from the crowd
The shopkeeper's son said angrily: "Dad, who are those two wicked mothers-in-law just now, they tied us up for no reason, and I have to report to the official to arrest them." ”
The shopkeeper hurriedly stopped him and said: "Son, I can't go, those two mothers-in-law are devils who kill people without blinking, and the officials in the government can't help them, so they can only consider themselves unlucky when they encounter this." We must not publicize this matter, if it reaches the ears of those two evil mothers-in-law, the lives of our whole family will not be guaranteed. As he spoke, he wiped his tears and was heartbroken.
