Dingqiongzhou Chapter 53 Refreshment
The Medicine King Hall has not been repaired for many years, and the organizations and individuals who have signed up for this year's Medicine King Contest are far more than in previous years, in order to be able to proceed smoothly, so this time from the county to the city, they attach great importance to it, and a separate amount of money has been allocated to renovate and expand the entire Medicine King Hall and rebuild the Medicine King statue.
Of course, ordinary people are forbidden to enter until it is completed, but Shen Bing and Yu Man are different, because they are friends of Lu Ping.
"Depressed, you are the son of the director of the public security bureau, you said it earlier! Yu Man walked between Shen Bing and Lu Ping and said.
"Frightened, why?" Lu Ping asked puzzled.
"Because...... Ouch, why are you pinching me?" Yu Man was pinched by Shen Bing's fingers, and quickly pulled the hatred over.
"Pinch you, who pinched you, you have to be careful, people are doing it, the sky is watching, and the person who betrays his friends will bite his tongue when he eats." ”
Yu Man hurriedly covered his mouth and stared at Shen Bing in horror.
"It's still so naughty, it hasn't changed at all over the years. Lu Ping thought to himself, but he didn't pay attention to Shen Bing, but he kept looking at him vigilantly.
The Medicine King Palace, in fact, can not be called a palace in the strict sense, the old generation is just a large open space rammed out of the soil, which is convenient for people from the south to trade herbs here, and a totem symbolizing the medicine king is erected in the middle.
In modern times, due to the rapid development of traditional Chinese medicine, more and more people come and go to Baiqing, in order to promote the local economy, the government allocated funds to renovate the place, and the totem has also become a so-called statue of the king of medicine.
However, no one knows whether it is the medicine king himself or not, anyway, some experts came out to say that after all aspects of historical research, historical documents were found in some ancient tombs, and finally proved that the medicine king was like this.
But there is no unified statement about what the surname of the medicine king is, what his name is, and where he is from.
Especially the oldest Yuan, Shen, and Sun, all say that the Medicine King is a person from their place. However, there was no basis for this, and in the end it was the government that stepped forward and settled on Baiqing.
Therefore, the medicine king competition once every four years has been held in Baiqing.
Lu Ping and the two girls came to the statue of the Medicine King, the three of them saw it for the first time, and now the repair work has been finally completed, so the statue of the Medicine King has taken on a new look.
"Oh my God, this is the ancestor of Chinese medicine!" Yu Man looked at the statue of the Medicine King with reverence.
Although Shen Bing also studied traditional Chinese medicine and pharmaceutical, she always thought that it was superstition for things like the king of medicine, and she preferred to believe that the achievements of traditional Chinese medicine today are the crystallization of the wisdom of working people for thousands of years.
So Shen Bing didn't feel anything, but very deliberately kept a certain distance from Lu Ping.
Suddenly, Yu Man screamed, and everyone looked in the direction she was pointing.
"You see, there seems to be something missing from the Medicine King's forehead. ”
As Yu Man said, in the very center of the forehead of the Medicine King statue, there was a huge depression, as if something should have been placed there.
Hearing the screams, a white-bearded old man walked over and hugged him: "What are you guys doing? Who let you in?"
Yu Man, who was usually babbling, had already hidden, and Shen Bing stepped forward and said politely: "Old man, we are students of Donghai Medical University. ”
The old man stared at the two girls suspiciously, then turned to Lu Ping and asked, "What about you?"
Yu Man suddenly jumped out and shouted: "He is a public security ......"
"I'm from Gun'an and I've made a special trip to buy some herbs. Lu Ping said.
"Gun'an, I've never heard of this place. Hurry up and get out, it's not yet the day of the game, and if you collide with Lord Yaowang, disaster will fall!" said the old man again.
"Okay, old sir, we'll go, but before we go, I'd like to ask you a question. Shen Bing said.
The old man's face, which was still flat just now, suddenly piled up, and asked with a smile, "Say, little girl." ”
"Old man, is there something in the depression on the forehead of the Medicine King Patriarch?" asked Shen Bing.
"Hehe, the little girl's eyes are quite useful, there was originally the treasure of the Medicine King, because I was afraid of being stolen by the gangsters, so I took it down. ”
Yu Man muttered on the side: "Obviously I saw it first." ”
"Then you must have seen the treasure of the Medicine King?" asked Shen Bing.
The old man hesitated for a moment, his face a little embarrassed: "Eh-I have seen it, of course I have seen it." ”
"What is the treasure of the Medicine King?"
"The treasure of the king of medicine is ......"
Suddenly, Lu Ping shouted: "Who?"
Several people looked together, only to see a black shadow suddenly flashing behind the statue of the Medicine King, Lu Ping left a few people and quickly chased after them, and the others also chased out.
But when a few people chased them out, they saw Lu Ping standing motionless.
"What's wrong? Yu Man shouted.
Lu Ping said with a smile: "Maybe it's my delusion, there's nothing." ”
"Ahem, okay, okay, you kids hurry up, I'm surprised, tomorrow is the day of the game, and it's not too late to come." The old man said and coaxed a few people out.
On the other side, in the luxurious suite of the hotel, Quake looked at Carter anxiously, only to see that Carter's face was pale and seemed to be seriously injured.
"Are you alright? Carter. ”
Carter slowly opened his eyes and said angrily, "My stand-in has been destroyed. ”
"What? How is it possible, your stand-in is faster than a cheetah. Quake shouted.
Carter sat on the sofa, drank a glass of wine, and his face slowly softened: "I can't help but be ruined, and it is very completely ruined, and my stand-in has no power to fight back." It seems that we have met the master of Huaguo this time. ”
"What then?"
"Hmph, it's a pity that I can't see his appearance clearly, otherwise what can I do even if I am a master, and there are still fewer masters you and I have killed?" Carter continued disapprovingly.
"However, I still heard some useful information, it seems that the treasure of this medicine king is real, notify the organization immediately, this time we are bound to get it. ”
"Okay. ”
At night, Lu Ping was lying alone on the bed in the hotel, holding a small black doll in his hand.
The puppet is carved out of wood, has a dark body, and has no face, only a pair of ears.
"It seems that this is a bit similar to the method of the Dancing Ghost Sect, using one of its own things to live on an object and controlling it with qi, it seems that this Medicine King Contest is not as simple as it seems. ”
"I just don't know, what is the purpose of this spellcaster, is it staring at the treasure of the Medicine King? This makes me more interested in the treasure of the Medicine King, if this treasure is useful to me, even if it robs me, I will rob it!"
