Chapter 172: The Secret of Luojiang Mountain
The person who shouted excitedly outside the house was the lame old man who was guarding the ancestral hall. This old man has the true inheritance of his father-in-law, and has become a famous doctor in these ten miles and eight towns, and even Heyun Town is also famous.
The old man and his wife raised their eyebrows, the fairy couple, saving the dead and helping the wounded, and being benevolent. People who are a little older mention this Dr. Ma and his wife are full of praise.
However, such a clever and benevolent doctor, who went into the mountains to collect medicine, got lost for a while, strayed into the mountains, and when he was rescued by the same villagers, he was lame, and he was stupid and stupid. As for his wife, no one knows.
At first, the villagers sent people to search the mountains while asking. He was stupid and stupid, and he never spoke, and the villagers sent many people to search the mountains but there was no trace of his wife. After three months, the villagers thought that the soft and kind Ma Wang clan had already been attacked by wild beasts, and they were afraid that there would be no bones left. Later, another medicine collector said that near Mount Russell, he saw a woman's cloth shirt torn by wild objects. People are even more sure that something has happened to the Ma Wang clan.
After that, Dr. Ma gradually got better, but he never sent to see a doctor again, and sat at the door of the ancestral hall in a daze all day long, if no one called his name, he could sit for a few days and nights. Someone tried to talk to him and ask about what had happened that day.
As if he hadn't heard, he didn't say anything, and his expression became more and more sad. Most of the villagers are also good people, and they ask a few times, but they don't know the situation of the day, so they no longer do the thing of peeling off the wounds of others, so the villagers never mention the events of the year.
After a few more years, he was silent for longer and longer, but he was in good spirits and invited himself to take care of the ancestral hall. At dusk, he often saw himself kneeling in front of the ancestral tablet, and he didn't know what he was doing.
But. If someone asks him a few words, as long as it doesn't involve the year. He would always answer a sentence or two. For example, the villagers always like to joke in their spare time: "Eighth Master, do you remember what licorice and Fu Feng are used for?"
He raised his eyebrows, looked disdainfully at the person who asked him, and then replied, "You rely on me?"
"Yes. People laughed.
He was stunned as if he thought of something, and his expression became more and more sad. Every now and then. The villagers did not dare to speak much. Over time, everyone didn't dare to talk to this Ma Dafu more, and he definitely didn't plan to make any fun. Not to mention speak.
Therefore, at this time when the distinguished guests came to Huojing Village, Dr. Ma, who had never joined in the excitement and would not take the initiative to speak, actually wanted to squeeze in for the first time. Still shouting excitedly. The villagers thought it was very strange.
In the meantime, everyone made a way for him. He dragged his lame leg in, his thin face was twisted with muscles, he swooped in front of Jiang Chengzi, but his eyes were on the young man, and he asked, "You say, where do you say there are dogs?"
"Luojiang Mountain is Xishan District. Over there at Hairy Dog Rock. The young man replied.
"Over there, over there. Doctor Ma pursed his lips tightly. muttered, then fell to the ground and convulsed. The crowd was startled, and someone wanted to help him.
Jiang Chengzi expected that this old man must have known something terrible and was in a hurry for a while, and if he helped him like that, he would probably take the old man's life.
"Wait. Jiang Chengzi jumped up and shouted to prevent others from helping the old man.
The man was about to come into contact with the old man, but when he heard the delicate cry, he was startled, and he withdrew his hand. Jiang Chengzi walked quickly to the old man and did cardiac resuscitation compressions a few times, but the old man stopped convulsing and slowly opened his eyes after a while.
When the villagers saw a girl casually pressing like this for a moment, the old man who was convulsive kept waking up, and some people heard that this girl was learning from the immortals, so they immediately revered it. But everyone revered and revered, but they didn't dare to say anything casually, let alone ask for the idol's autograph. After all, the other party is a famous lady.
Jiang Chengzi didn't bother to listen to people's discussions, she intuitively felt that what happened to this old man back then or there were any clues, so she squatted down and looked at Doctor Ma who slowly opened his eyes and said, "Don't be excited, the more you are at this time, the more calm you should be." ”
Doctor Ma looked at her in a daze, his expression full of surprise.
"Don't look at me like that, but calm down first, and wait for me to talk to your people here, and then come and see you. Jiang Chengzi said to him, then stood up and said to Ma Laosan, "There is the third master of Lao Ma who carries your eighth master to the bed to rest, and sends someone to watch and bring tea and water." ”
"Yes, yes. Ma Laosan immediately ordered a few people to carry Doctor Ma away, and thanked Jiang Chengzi again and again for saving his eighth master's life.
Although Jiang Chengzi was more interested in what happened to this Ma Dafu couple back then, she would not forget the purpose of coming to Huojing Village. One is to see what seems to be a natural gas outlet, and the other is to understand the geography of the surrounding mountains, so that you can find the real substance enough to support the future glory for the future blueprint.
So she sat down on the stones under the eaves and listened to the villagers talk about the situation in the surrounding mountains. Of course, she guided intentionally or unintentionally, and only knew that there might be Baimaozi Rock on the other side of Jiashan Mountain and Luojiang Mountain, and Luojiang Mountain was too deep in the mountains, which was very weird, and people didn't know the route there.
Jiang Chengzi asked one or two, but he only felt that the place was very strange, and he chatted with the villagers of Huojing Village for a while, and the information he got was also very limited, and he had to go through many things himself.
Jiang Chengzi immediately got up and asked everyone to be busy. It is the busy season of farming, although it is very rare for a famous family to come to this mountain village, but in the end it is still not as important as farming. And everyone dispersed.
When everyone dispersed, Jiang Chengzi took Yao Ziqiu, Xiao Jiu and Pan Daochang into the house to see Doctor Ma. Dr. Ma was still lying on the bed, and he was much calmer.
Jiang Chengzi sat next to him and said very calmly: "Doctor Ma, you have been depressed in your heart for a long time, hidden but not revealed, and you are also calm. Today shouldn't—"
Doctor Ma lowered his eyes, although his expression was still hateful, but his tone was surprisingly calm: "Does the girl really learn from the immortals?"
"What about the means of even the superiors? The important thing is whether it can help you achieve your long-cherished wish, isn't it?" Jiang Chengzi said slowly.
She had a hunch that what Ma Dafu encountered back then was not a beast at all, nor was it his wife who was killed by a beast as the outside world speculated, and he had lived in self-blame for so many years because of his poor protection.
"Can you really help me?" Doctor Ma's eyes brightened instantly.
Jiang Chengzi said indifferently: "No matter what kind of identity I have, it is more than enough to help you." Just look at your sincerity. ”
Yes, she wants to know what happened to this old man in the Luojiang Mountains, where there are many white hairy rocks. She wanted to know if it was a den of the Qiang people. Of course, if not, the person named Long Dao will sooner or later attack herself, and she can also lure the enemy and then go deep into the enemy's lair.
When a person begins to have magical abilities, this open life no longer needs to be explained. In addition to her abilities, the elite education she received as Jiang Chengzi when she was alive was simply a pervert.
The open life made her confident enough to make a promise to this old man.
The old man pursed his lips, Yao Ziqiu knew that he didn't trust him, so he introduced: "The ninth girl is from the Hongnong Yang clan, and she studied under the immortals, and she is the Qincha appointed by the prince today. ”
The old man raised his eyes to look at her, and he didn't care about any courtesy. After a while, the old man sighed, pursed his chapped lips, and said without caring about the blood on the crack, "I really don't want to think about that part." But now, there is a chance for revenge, and I want to talk to the nine girls. (To be continued.) )
