Chapter 205: Crazy Onlookers
The old man walked out of the medicine house, and the hundred or so people who had poured out of his house before were still crowded in the courtyard. In fact, where there is any yard, the bamboo fence around the yard has long been pushed by this group of people. Although there was no fence, they all stood crowded inside the fallen fence, and none of them went out of bounds, and they didn't know what strange psychology was at work.
As soon as the old man went out, those people instantly split into two groups and went to both sides of the courtyard, as if they were dodging the old man.
The old man turned his head left and right to look at them, and they also looked at the old man with pitiful and defensive eyes.
"Ahemββ! the old man clenched his fist with one hand and coughed heavily, then went down the steps, walked directly through the path between the two groups of people to the bamboo gate that had disappeared, and then turned around again, and said with a serious expression to the two men in the crowd who were all turning their heads and looking at him 'sneakily': "Ergouzi, Dashan, you two come with me." β
Two men came out of the crowd, and they were two of the people who were called by the old man outside the village half a month ago to come to the village to push a cart to save people.
Ergouzi and Dashan followed the old man to the far side of the medicine house.
Behind them, the men, women, and children crowded in the courtyard of the medicine house were boiling in their hearts, watching the old man and the other three leave, and they didn't know the old man's age, but his brain was not confused, and when they were about to swarm towards the door of the medicine house, the old man replied:
"You all go back, and if I come back in a moment and see anyone still here, then don't be unkind. β
Everyone who was still enthusiastic a moment ago wilted at this moment, and no one dared to take a step forward standing in place.
The old man left only a word of 'threat' and left.
......
"I've been so busy these days that I forgot to ask you, is that everything done?"
At the entrance of Shiwai Village, the old man stood and asked the two dogs and the mountain that came with him.
"Aren't we at ease with our seniors? Just put a hundred hearts, the two of us destroyed all traces that night, and no outsiders will find any traces. Dashan patted his chest and said proudly.
"That's it, even the blood-stained stones by the river have been washed, and there will be no accidents, seniors, you can rest assured!"
"Well, that's good. The old man nodded, and then he was relieved, "Let's go." β
"Let's go?" Dashan looked at the old man who had turned around and walked back, very speechless, "I thought that the seniors were looking for us to do something, but it turned out that we were just asking about this matter, and we were nervous when we came!"
"It's thia, it's thia, I still think that the seniors have some big task for the two of us to do it! Don't you just ask this little thing, why is it necessary to go so far to ask thi!?"
The two kept chirping behind the old man, and the drunkenness never stopped, but the old man who walked in front kept silent, looking preoccupied.
When the three of them returned to the medicine house, it was indeed empty in front of the medicine house.
From afar, Ergouzi and Dashan looked at the empty front of the medicine house, and the two still didn't believe their eyes.
They have been born for more than 30 years, and they still don't know what kind of character they are from the outside village?
How can those people be so honest and obedient, and the old man's words 'Threats can't frighten them at all!'
Entering the courtyard, the two were still in a state of shock, but the sight that followed their eyes showed how well they knew their neighbors.
Because, the medicine house facing the fence bamboo gate was crowded with people at this time, and those people rushed forward and back, and the scene was really pushing the back waves forward, and they all wanted to squeeze in front.
Looking at that scene, Ergouzi and Dashan were stunned.
Although the two of them have been involved in this kind of thing these days, they have never seen such a spectacular scene as they are now.
The two of them were stunned and swallowed with difficulty, and then followed the old man to the medicine house.
"Ahem!"
Standing at the door, the old man cleared his throat and coughed vigorously.
The medicine house was very noisy, and the crowd was shouting loudly for those who were pushing themselves or those who were in their way, mixed with cursing and quarrelling.
The old man finished coughing, and the medicine house was silent for a moment.
The two dogs and Dashan who were standing behind the old man were all happy at this time, and the curvature of their mouths was grinning, so they were waiting to see the show and see how the old man 'disposed' of these people who had no king's law'.
"Oh, senior, why are you coming back now?"
In other words, Uncle Zhang was standing in the middle of the crowd, and he couldn't stand at this time, because he was tall, so he stretched out his arms to support the people on both sides to barely maintain his balance. Seeing the old man suddenly appear, he greeted the old man with a flattering smile.
"Why is my medicine house so fragrant lately, why are you all rushing here as if you don't want to die?" the old man was surprisingly calm, but walked towards the table as he spoke.
Everyone's heads and eyes mechanically followed him in the direction of the table.
"Ouch, senior, just let me do this kind of thing, you're tired these days, let's go back to your room to rest, I'll leave it to me here, and I'll take care of it for you." β
There was a bowl of rice porridge on the table, which was originally prepared for the girl on the bed, Uncle Zhang thought that the old man was carrying rice porridge and was about to feed the girl, so he enthusiastically shouted for help, and his body was squeezed out at the same time.
"Yo, you're very warm-hearted. The old man sneered, and the hand that reached out to the table skipped directly over the bowl of porridge and headed towards a small box in the middle of the table. "You say, 'You are so zealous, how can I thank you?...... or else. β
Placing the small box in his arms, he opened the lid and reached out to take something out of it.
Knock knock......
Just as the contents of the box were presented in front of everyone's eyes, the men, women, and children who were still curious about the old man's behavior instantly ran out of the door like crazy.
"Ouch ββ!"
"Ouch ββ!"
With two screams at the door, the old man lifted the thing in his hand and looked at it lovingly in front of his face.
It was only a moment, and there was no trace of anyone else in the house except for the old man, Beichen Fengyun and Yan Xi.
Beichen Fengyun was still sitting on the bed, looking at the old man in surprise at this time.
"Ouch, what the hell you guys! I almost didn't break my nose!"
At the door, the second dog only stood up from the ground at this time, and was holding his nose with one hand and yelling at the men, women and children who rushed out of the door, in order to vent the anger of being hit by them.
"It's thi! If I hadn't covered my hands quickly, my front teeth would have leaked in the future!" Dashan also covered his mouth with one hand and scolded angrily, and then followed the second dog into the house.
However, when the two of them stood in the door and saw the old man, they screamed at the same time, and then turned around and ran away from the door.
"Senior, ...... are you?"
Beichen Fengyun really didn't understand the old man's actions, so he asked strangely.
The old man was holding not anything in his hand, but a slender and colorful snake that was still writhing!
"Oh, it's a spotted snake, you won't have to worry about your life if you are bitten by it, at most it will make you itch for a few days. Childe also saw it, these people are very difficult to deal with, if the old man does not scare them, I am afraid that you and this girl will be at peace all day long. β
"I see. "Beichen is suddenly in the clouds.
The old man put the spotted snake in the small box again, closed the lid and walked out of the door.
"Dashan, Ergouzi, Chen Da...... You can't leave for a while, and now that you've ruined my good yard, shouldn't you restore it to its original state?"
The old man pointed to the pitiful bamboo fence lying on the ground and said to the dozens of people standing in the courtyard, reluctant to leave even though they were intimidated by the terrible spotted snake.
"Alas, don't worry, senior, we will fix it for you! As long as you don't let that scary snake appear in front of us again!"
Dashan said fearfully after clutching his chest.
"Hmph, then let's start quickly, if you don't get it right before dusk, I'm afraid you'll have itchy leek sprouts for a few days?" β
When the people outside the door heard this, their feet were all weak, but they did not slack off, and immediately started to repair the bamboo fence.
"It really made Childe laugh. β
After entering the house, the old man picked up the porridge on the table and came to the bed, and then handed the porridge to Beichen Fengyun and said.
"Thank you, seniors. Beichen Fengyun took the porridge, scooped a spoonful and sent it to Yan Xi's mouth, who was still unconscious.
"She can't eat this for the time being, I'm letting you eat it. The old man said, "The first few **** woke up in a coma, and fainted due to overwork, this sleep is six days, I want to come to your body is very weak, and you must take supplements in time." β
"The juniors are fine, thank you for your concern. "Beichen Fengyun only said.
He really couldn't feed the spoonful of porridge to Yan Xi. He put the tip of the spoon in Yan Xi's mouth, but as soon as he poured half of the porridge, it all flowed out of the corners of Yan Xi's mouth.
He hurriedly wiped her with one cuff.
The old man hurriedly walked to the table and took a sweat towel to help wipe it, and then said, "I said, she can't eat it, so she can only feed her some medicinal soup to nourish her body for the time being." You eat, I will make a decoction for you, these **** will make up for your body, and you will need to help do some things then. β
"What's the matter? Although the seniors say it, the younger generations will never give up. "Beichen Fengyun Road.
"Wellββ, not to die. The old man waved his hand, "Although I don't know you well, and I don't know who you are, but judging from the fact that you are injured and still have a strong aura in your body, you should be good at martial arts." β
"The seniors are really powerful, yes, the juniors are not talented, but they still know some martial arts. "Beichen Fengyun Road.
"Hmm. The old man nodded, "That's why I asked you to help." The poison on this girl's body is no longer a problem, and it is only a matter of time before it is completely removed. However, she was deeply poisoned, and she was treated late, vomiting so much blood in those days, and her vitality was seriously damaged, and we may not know when she will wake up. However, there is a mountain in the east of our Shiwai Village, and on the top of the mountain grows a kind of Jinhua tree, which bears fruit in summer, and is called Jinhua fruit, which has a miraculous effect on the treatment of human beings who are in a coma due to poisoning, and if it is there, it will be helpful for the girl's awakening. However, the trunk of the Jinhua tree is straight, and the branches and leaves of the fruit are more than 100 zhang from the ground, and because the trunk of the tree is extremely slender, ordinary people cannot climb it at all, so I thought, since the son knows martial arts, it must be easy to get the Jinhua fruit on the tree. β
"I see. Beichen Fengyun nodded, then drank the bowl of porridge in his hand, and then said: "Don't worry, seniors in this matter, please ask the seniors to show the way, and the juniors will go and get the Jinhua fruit." β
With that, he got up and prepared to go out.
Then, before he could step out, he suddenly felt dizzy, and then his legs went limp, and he fell back to the bed.
"You see, how can you get out with such a weak body, you can't even walk, and besides, the mountain is so high and majestic that it will take a lot of effort for a young and strong young man to climb it, let alone the way you are now. The old man held one of his arms and said, "This matter is not urgent, you can rest assured first, and it is not too late to go after a few days when your strength has recovered." β
