38. (xxxviii)

After Jiang Yuanzhong and Wang Meng left, Su Muxian stayed in Wucang Mountain.

Although the mountain is quiet and lonely, it is better than the mountains and mountains, the scenery is beautiful, and it also has a unique flavor, except-

"What is this for?"

Su Muxian took the bamboo basket handed over by Xiao Qinglin and looked dazed, there were vegetable leaves, beans and some miscellaneous grains in the basket, which looked quite suitable for the surrounding atmosphere, but why should he give it to her?

Xiao Qinglin said succinctly: "Feed the chickens." ”

Su Muxian: "......"

"Wait, didn't I come to you for a detoxification? No, wait...... Are there chickens here? Su Muxian looked around, he didn't see the shadow of a chicken, and Xiao Qinglin's expression didn't look like he was joking.

"In the back of the house." Xiao Qinglin pointed behind him and continued to say succinctly, "After feeding the chickens, then go to the medicine garden to pull weeds." ”

After speaking, he pondered for a moment and then said, "After pulling the grass, run around the hill twice." ”

Su Muxian: ...... I feel as if you're making me laugh.

Feed the chickens, pull weeds, run...... Is she really here to detoxify? This miracle doctor doesn't look reliable at all!

As if seeing her doubts, Xiao Qinglin explained indifferently: "Your physique is too poor, I'm afraid that I won't be able to survive when I detoxify you, and I will smash my miracle doctor's signboard." ”

Su Muxian: "...... Okay, I got it. ”

The arguments are too strong to refute.

After Xiao Qinglin said this, he pushed the door and entered the house, leaving Su Muxian alone outside with the mountain wind. She walked to the back of the house with a bamboo basket, thinking about Xiao Qinglin's words as she walked. It's true that her body hasn't been good since she was a child, and it's very reasonable to run, but ...... Feeding the chickens or something is definitely Xiao Qinglin's selfishness.

Alas, forget it, the sender has to bow his head under the fence.

Su Muxian sighed as she pushed open the fence of the chicken coop. I don't know how Xiao Qinglin usually raises them, these chickens look so thin that they are almost only hairy, and they huddle in the corner of the chicken coop one by one, and there is no movement when they see people coming in.

No wonder she said that she didn't hear the chickens in the morning because she had raised chickens in the mountains, and they were all emaciated like this, and they didn't taste good.

Su Muxian smacked her lips, instantly remembering the roast chicken she ate a few days ago, and then looking at these chickens, her gaze became much more eager, after all, no one knew which of them would be her next lunch.

Saying...... Doctor Xiao didn't let you eat meat, right?

Su Muxian recalled carefully, Xiao Qinglin's medical advice did not mention this.

She squatted down, poured the contents of the bamboo basket to the ground, stroked the top of the head of the big nestled in front of her with her fingers, and muttered, "Eat more, eat fat, it's too thin to taste good......"

Xiao Qinglin, who happened to come to the chicken coop: "......"

I just let you feed the chickens, and I'm worried about eating people.

He didn't bother to speak,

You can't eat and drink in vain, and people don't have any expressions.

Su Muxian felt that the etiquette she should have still couldn't be left behind, although her cooking skills were not very good, but she couldn't watch Doctor Xiao do it himself.

After listening to her, Xiao Qinglin's expression drifted subtly: "...... Who said I was going to eat it? ”

Su Muxian: "...... What? ”

If you don't eat it, what are you doing with it!

Xiao Qinglin explained naturally: "I'll test the medicine with it." ”

At the end, remembering that Su Muxian and Jiang Yuanzhong had a great relationship, he paused and said, "If you want to eat...... Wait until I'm done trying the medicine before I take it? ”

Su Muxian: No thanks.

I was reluctant to delve into the real reason why Xiao Qinglin's chickens were so thin, so Su Muxian went to the medicine garden after feeding the chickens.

To be honest, it was a bit difficult to discern which herbs were planted in the medicine garden with Su Muxian's only medical knowledge, but fortunately, the weeds were still very easy to recognize. Xiao Qinglin caught the chicken and went back to the room to tinker, probably researching his new medicine.

Su Muxian was digging grass in the ground, and she was in a trance, when she suddenly felt a hand pat her shoulder.

She was frightened, and before she could look up, the owner of the hand spoke.

"Excuse me, Xiao Qinglin Xiao Divine Doctor lives here?"

Su Muxian: "......"

Oh my mother, why does this sound so familiar?

She turned her head silently, just in time to meet a gentle, watery face. If it weren't someone pretending to be there, it just so happened that she had only met this person not long ago - in her inn.

"Miss Shen, let's meet again." Su Muxian raised his little paw covered with mud and waved.

The person who came was the eldest lady of the Shen family, Shen Ying, who angrily broke the marriage contract for true love.

Seeing that she suddenly appeared on Wucang Mountain, and came to Xiao Qinglin by name, it is estimated that she already knows who the person who saved her was in the first place.

While thinking about it, Su Muxian looked thoughtfully at the window of Xiao Qinglin's room.

When Shen Ying saw that it was her, she subconsciously took half a step back, her eyes scanned around with her as the center, and asked, "Why are you here?" Is the guy surnamed Jiang also there? ”

Su Muxian shook his head: "Miss Shen, don't worry, I'm here to find Doctor Xiao to save my life, Jiang Yuanzhong is not here." ”

"He's not there? That's it. Shen Ying stood still, and her eyes fell on Su Muxian's face, "You said you came to Doctor Xiao to save your life, what happened?" What are you doing now? ”

Shen Ying didn't have any prejudice against Su Muxian, and when she saw her say that she was looking for Xiao Qinglin to save her life, she asked the reason casually.

"Pull the weeds." Su Muxian replied as a matter of course, "As for why you came to Divine Doctor Xiao...... Well, it was an accident, and it's a long story. ”

Shen Ying shouldn't know what happened after she was kidnapped by the man in black, anyway, it's not a glorious thing, and there is no need to talk about it in detail.

Shen Ying saw that she didn't want to say it or reluctantly, she just asked casually, but now Xiao Qinglin's matter is more important.

She handed a handkerchief for Su Muxian to wipe her hands, pointed to Xiao Qinglin's room and whispered, "Doctor Xiao is inside?" ”

"Yes, I guess I'm testing small animals right now." Su Muxian replied.

As if to confirm her words, a terrible rooster crow sounded in the room at the right time.

Shen Ying usually looks very generous and hearty, but at this moment, she said with a little twist: "Then can you ...... Help me call Doctor Xiao out? ”

Su Muxian stared at her with a faint crimson on her face, and her mood was a little complicated.

But she had also seen Miss Shen's temper, and it was not easy to refuse her request, so Su Muxian took her to the door and knocked on the door three times, and after waiting quietly for a while, she heard a flat voice from inside.

"Come in."

……

Different from Su Muxian's imagination, Xiao Qinglin's pharmacy was exceptionally simple.

There is a row of medicine buckets against the wall, and at a glance, I don't know how many small compartments are divided. There were a few medical books on the desk, the white cooked rice was spread out, and a pen dipped in ink was casually put aside, and it could be seen that the master had hastily written a few strokes and went to continue to work on other things.

Xiao Qinglin stood by the window, in front of him was a small table, on the table was the big rooster brought from the chicken coop, I don't know if it was dead or faint, his head hung down softly from the edge of the table.

On the small square table were several small porcelain bottles for medicinal purposes scattered disheveled, and in the corner of the table was a white tray with several daggers glowing with cold light, the blades of which were stained with blood, presumably from the large rooster.

Su Muxian didn't dare to look more, and when she saw Xiao Qinglin's puzzled gaze, she hurriedly turned sideways and let Shen Ying out.

"Doctor Xiao, this girl wants to see you."

Xiao Qinglin's eyes wandered around Shen Ying's face, as if he was recalling who she was, but after thinking about it for a while, he didn't think about it, and his expression didn't seem very warm.

He nodded lightly at Shen Ying and asked, "Is there something wrong?" ”

"Can you go in and talk about it?" Shen Ying asked, pointing to the threshold under her feet.

At this time, she put away the shyness of her daughter's family, and instead put up everyone's beautiful shelf.

Xiao Qinglin tilted his head slightly, as if he was thinking about something, and quickly replied, "Then come in." ”

Shen Ying was about to walk inside, but Su Muxian withdrew her hand one step faster, and helped them close the door with knowing and interest.

This kind of emotional thing, she is not an outsider to mix.

But speaking of which...... Shen Ying looked at the inconspicuous mountain and water, why is her hand strength so big!

Su Muxian shook his hands and walked out, and when he walked outside the house, he was suddenly hit on the head by a small pebble.

The strength of the pebble is not large, so it can be seen that the other party is just playing around and has no intention of hurting people.

Su Muxian didn't think that there would be stone rain in the sky, so this small stone must have been smashed down by someone, and she was very targeted at her.

She looked back in the direction where the stone came, and saw two people standing on the roof of Xiao Qinglin's hut, because of the backlight, their faces were not very clear, and she could only clearly see that one of them was pulling the other person's ear, and that person didn't dare to struggle violently, so he had to bear it obediently.

"Shopkeeper Su, help-"

Someone who was grabbed by the ear called for help to Su Muxian.

Of course, listening to his exclamation for help is more exaggerated.

Su Muxian stared at the figures of the two and squinted for a while, then suddenly smiled. It's really strange today, what kind of wind blows all the acquaintances, and there are three of them at once.

She smiled and waved at Hu Xiaodie and beckoned, "Miss Hu, long time no see." ”
