Chapter 22: The Secret of Li Shanren

After listening to the housekeeper's introduction, the two of them knew what happened. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

It turned out that Li Shanren really had a serious illness and had been lying in the house for a few days, and he really couldn't see guests.

When the swordsman heard this, his heart sank. I don't know why, he feels that Li Shanren's illness must be related to the things in the East Bay area, and it seems that Niu's bold guess is indeed not wrong. Li Shanren must know a lot of things.

"I don't know how Li Shanren is now? Didn't you ask Dr. Chen from the north of the city to see it?"

The swordsman asked.

Dr. Chen has come to see him many times. It's just that he's also at a loss, alas. I took a lot of various medicines, but my lord's illness did not improve at all, and he became thinner and thinner. ”

The butler frowned and sighed. He's not a good housekeeper. He needs to take care of the whole house, and recently he has been running inside and outside for the master's illness. On the go.

In this regard, the swordsman did not have the slightest surprise, he could see from Xiaobao's illness that this Doctor Chen probably has no cultivation, just a Tulangzhong, in fact, Xiaobao's illness is not so difficult, it just needs to cooperate with special techniques.

"I've been studying with the Xuan seniors in Taoyuan Village for a while, why don't you let me show Li Shanren below?"

The swordsman asked cautiously. Although he doesn't want to admit it, he also knows very well in his heart that in people's hearts, the older the doctor, the more convincing.

"But Doctor Xuan from Taoyuan Village?"

Unexpectedly, the housekeeper listened to the words of the swordsman and asked in surprise.

"Exactly. ”

The swordsman looked at the butler in surprise, could it be that Senior Xuan was also very famous in this Jianye City, but why did he have a feeling that the butler's smile was a little strange.

"It turns out that the young man is from that Taoyuan Village, no wonder he is so faced. Could this be Miss Xia'er? I have long heard that there is a beautiful girl in Taoyuan Village, but I have never seen it. That's a good feeling. It is said that Dr. Chen in the north of the city was fortunate enough to receive the guidance of Dr. Xuan in the early years, so he settled down in the city and treated the residents of the city. Then it's troublesome. Young man, please come with me. ”

The butler led the way in front of him happily and went up the wooden staircase by the wall to the second floor.

The second floor is divided into two rooms, inside and outside. In the inner room, a large screen blocked the swordsman's view.

"Ahem. Butler, what's the matter? ”

Perhaps the footsteps of several people were heard, and a weak voice came from behind the screen.

"Master, it's a young swordsman in Taoyuan Village, and I was entrusted by the chief of the cow to come to the master for some things. I heard that the old man was sick, so the villain made his own decisions and asked him to diagnose the old man. ”

Hearing the old man's incessant coughing, the housekeeper hurriedly trotted a few steps, stepped forward and gently patted Li Shanren's back.

The swordsman and Xia'er bypassed the screen, only to see that in the inner room, a slightly thin old man was lying on the bed, and was about to sit up hard with the support of the housekeeper.

"Ahem, the two young heroes are not strange, the old man is sick and can't get up to greet him. Ahem, ahem. ”

The old man coughed violently as he tried to sit up.

The two boys hurriedly disturbed, but they disturbed Li Shanren's rest. Li Shanren should not get up, just lie down. ”

Seeing the old man's appearance, the swordsman hurriedly waved his hand and signaled him not to move.

"The kid followed the Xuan seniors to learn some of the art of disambiguation, and asked Li Shanren to lie down, so that the kid could take the pulse of Li Shanren. ”

The swordsman stepped forward, sat on the edge of the bed, and gently put his hand on Li Shanren's pulse.

"Then there is Lao Shaoxia. ”

It seems that Dr. Xuan's reputation is indeed very great, and Li Shanren heard that the swordsman was studying under Dr. Xuan, so he lay down obediently.

The butler beckoned Miss Xia'er to sit down at the table beside her, and then returned to the bed and looked nervously at the swordsman's face. I wanted to see something in the change in his face.

The swordsman carefully felt Li Shanren's physical condition. His brow furrowed. Li Shanren's situation is similar to Xiaobao, but it is more serious, and it seems that the illness has been on for a long time. But...

"How's it going? Shaoxia, can you cure it?"

The butler asked nervously.

The swordsman nodded, then shook his head again.

"What does this mean, Shaoxia?"

What does it mean to just see the housekeeper in the clouds, nodding and shaking his head?

"It can be cured, but I don't have any medicine in my hand, I went to the pharmacy today, and I lack a main medicine. The swordsman said as he pressed certain acupuncture points on Li Shanren's body according to the technique taught to him by Doctor Xuan.

"Medicine, what medicine, Shaoxia, you say, there is a foot merchant named Ma Quanyou in this Jianye City, and he often has some rare treasured things in Jianye City. He happened to be staying in the city these days, and I went to him to see if there was any, and if he really didn't, I could ask him to help find him. ”

When the housekeeper heard that he could be cured, he was very happy. As for the question of medicine, it was not a problem at all in his opinion.

"It's called the medicinal herb of Hell Ganoderma lucidum. I wrote another prescription and bothered the housekeeper to buy it from the drugstore. The swordsman immediately wrote a prescription with the pen and ink on the table and handed it to the butler.

The housekeeper immediately went to grab the medicine himself.

There are only three swordsmen left in the house, Miss Xia'er and Li Shanren.

"I don't know why the two young heroes came to find the old man? ”

Li Shanren has been combed by the swordsman, and his spirit has improved a lot.

"I don't know if Li Shanren has heard of the strange things in the East Bay?"

The swordsman asked tentatively, and kept staring closely at the change in Li Shanren's expression.

Sure enough, hearing the swordsman mention the strange things in the East Bay, Li Shanren's eyes flickered a few times. After several struggles in my heart, I finally spoke.

"Yes, the old man knows, and this matter has a lot to do with the old man. I have never talked about this matter, but I didn't expect to kill so many innocent people. Alas. ”

Li Shanren sighed suddenly, and then told the secret that had been buried deep in his heart for many years.

It turned out that a few years ago, Li Shanren once partnered with a good friend to do business, and he went to the country of Aolai across the sea to sell some strange gadgets. As a result, on the way back, there was a storm at sea.

At that time, Li Shanren escaped by luck, and he had the opportunity to rescue that friend together, but the situation was too critical at that time, and Li Shanren was a little panicked, so he lost the opportunity to save that friend.

In the end, Li Shanren was rescued, but the rest of the people on the boat, including his friend, were killed. Li Shanren repented, and every year he would ask Niu to boldly do more for his comrades who were killed, but with little success.

There are often monsters in the East Bay. Moreover, Li Shanren often dreamed in the middle of the night that his friend looked at him with desperate eyes before he died. For this, he was tormented. Eventually, he fell ill, not so bad at first, but he had recently gotten sicker.

"Alas, he resents me, why should he harass the people in Jianye City?"

Li Shanren grabbed his hair in pain.
