Chapter Seventy-Seven: Kindness and Virtue
The five of them stared at each other, and they didn't know how to open this mouth with Governor Zhang. The prefect www.biquge.info was full of anticipation, and it could be the pill just now, which made the prefect feel that they had a cure.
Sha Li secretly used his consciousness to communicate with Nan Yuan: "Does your pill work?" ”
Nan Yuan shook his head: "I don't know, that kind of pill is generally given to children by cultivators, so that children can strengthen their muscles and bones and cultivate easily, and ordinary people will not be a big problem if they eat it." After all, this is a pill, not a medicine for the sick, and even if it can be cured, I can't get that much. ”
After listening to Nan Yuan's explanation, Sha Li gave up completely.
Luo Yuyan, who closed his eyes and recuperated on the side, said, "Elder Zhang." ”
Governor Zhang agreed, and the representative of "Zhang Lao" threw away his official status. Governor Zhang is also a transparent person, since he chose such a close title, most of them refused.
"Elder Zhang, we can't do anything about it." Luo Yuyan said simply, "The things of the pill also have different properties, and they are different from medicine. We have the heart to save the people, but like you, we can't do anything. ”
"It's the old man who is abrupt." Governor Zhang wiped the moistness from the corners of his eyes, "Lao Er also knows that real people are also divided into demon slaying and alchemist. A few nobles should be real people who slay demons and eliminate demons. ”
Governor Zhang's words were not wrong, and a few people didn't have the extra heart to give him a science popularization, so they nodded and admitted.
"After dinner, Lao Er took a few nobles to the post house where he stayed, it was not early, and Lao Er didn't bother much." Governor Zhang got up and bowed solemnly, "The old man is abrupt, don't blame a few nobles." ”
"Zhang Lao's heart is for the people, which is the blessing of the people, so how to blame it." Zhi Ge said in a deep voice.
After receiving Zhige's understanding, Governor Zhang nodded, picked up the wine glass and saluted everyone.
Sha Li still couldn't let go of it in her heart, and asked, "What is Zhang Lao going to do next?" ”
"The acquisition of medicinal herbs and the search for folk holy hands cannot be stopped, but Lao Er has not put all his confidence on this." Governor Zhang was also reassured, "Not far from Baiwu City, there is a cultivator sect Immortal Hall, which is said to be good at pills, and has sent someone to visit a few days ago, hoping to invite the real people of the Immortal Hall." How many elders can know the Immortal Hall? ”
"Immortal Hall? I really don't know. Sha Li muttered, probably a small sect that occupies a place.
Governor Zhang said: "The Immortal Hall is very prestigious here, and the high-grade pills made by the Immortal Hall can be said to be hard to find, and ordinary pills are only affordable for the rich and noble. If you can ask the people of the Immortal Hall to help, then this epidemic can be controlled. ”
There are too many sects in the Cultivator Realm now, and a few people can't tell how capable this Immortal Hall is. However, the strength of the forces that can become one side should always be not weak. Taking this opportunity to visit the attitude of the Immortal Hall is not in vain.
Governor Zhang said to Zhi Ge: "The general's march can detour from Mingsha County, where the epidemic has not yet been discovered, and it is safer for the army to walk from that side." ”
Zhi Ge raised his glass: "Thanks for the reminder." ”
If it is said that Fang Cai deliberately appeared close, then at this time, everyone was more grateful to Governor Zhang. Governor Zhang didn't know the changes in the hearts of several people, and his occasional sadness showed his concern about the epidemic, and he was afraid that he himself did not dare to have confidence in the Changshengtang.
Zhi Ge pondered for a moment and said, "If the Immortal Hall refuses to come forward, I will let the military doctor of the Silver Feather Guard give it a try." ”
Governor Zhang hurriedly stood up: "I can't help it, I can't help it!" How dare you bother the Silver Feather Divine Army! ”
Governor Zhang is not exaggerating, but he really doesn't dare. The Huang Dynasty has regulations that military doctors are also soldiers, and the army has its own system and is not given to outsiders, especially the core army of Yinyuwei, which is the Son of Heaven. It was reasonable for Governor Zhang to dare not invite the Yin Yuwei driver. However, if there is a stop to come forward, things will be easier to do, and if he returns to the court and is impeached by a few more imperial histories, the emperor should be able to understand.
Zhige was able to make this promise, but everyone didn't expect it, and Governor Zhang was even more flattered.
Zhi Ge was indifferent: "The people are the most important." ”
"Zhang Kaizhi represents the people of Baiwu City, thank the general." Governor Zhang knelt on the ground and kowtowed.
Governor Zhang breathed a sigh of relief, with the Silver Feather Guard military doctor, he could sleep well tonight.
A subordinate ran in in a panic and said something in the ear of Zhang Zhifu, who stared at him and was so shocked that he couldn't speak.
Suddenly, there was a commotion outside. The door was rudely pushed open, and an angry white-bearded old man rushed in, next to the unsuccessful stall, followed by a timid little boy with a small bamboo basket on his back, and looked into the house with wide eyes and curiosity.
The old man was in good spirits and had a ruddy complexion, and no one would have dared to recognize him as an old man if it weren't for his gray hair and white beard. He was dressed in short brown cloth and carried a bamboo hat behind him. The old man was obviously angry, glaring at a table of people, his beard curled up.
Sha Li instantly thought of the two old living treasures in the mountain gate, Uncle Kong Ming and Uncle Yun Yin. I thought that with the addition of this one, it is estimated that I can make up an auspicious three treasures.
Nan Yuan's gaze fell on the little boy behind the old man, and his smile was a little playful.
"What did you find?" Sha Li easily captured Nan Yuan's mood changes.
"I'm not sure, let's see."
Governor Zhang hurriedly greeted him, and the old man was not polite, rolled up his sleeves and stood in front of the prefect.
"Are you the prefect?" The old man stared.
"It's Zhang Kaizhi, the prefect of Baiwu." Governor Zhang respectfully made a gesture.
The old man's gaze swept over the five people in the seat and the cups and plates in front of him, and finally looked at the prefect and asked, "This is what your family said, a guest?" ”
Sha Li and the others don't understand the situation, so it's not easy to speak casually. In case the old father-in-law is looking for a son-in-law, the family affairs still have to be solved by themselves. The five of them tacitly kept their mouths shut and looked at the situation first.
"I wonder what the old gentleman has to say?" The prefect asked politely.
The old man snorted. "I don't dare to advise, so I will ask you, is the guest more important or the people more important?"
The prefect was taken aback at first, and then he was overjoyed: "Dare to ask the old gentleman if he saw the announcement of Baiwu City?" Coming to heal the people? ”
"Exactly." The old man didn't say much.
The prefect was simply crying with joy. Sha Li and the others suddenly realized, no wonder their temper is so stinky, it seems that they have stinky capital. Since you dare to come to the door, there must be a way to deal with the epidemic.
The five of them looked at each other, and it was time to leave. The five of them got up to say goodbye, but they didn't expect the old man to stop them.
"Sir, we are not from Dock City." Lou Qingxiao said politely.
The old man stroked his beard and said, "It doesn't matter if you are an old man here, but if it weren't for you, then the old man wouldn't be able to save the epidemic." Prefect, I'll leave this matter to you. ”
The old man didn't give them a chance to speak, and directly assigned the task to Governor Zhang, and sat on the Taishi's chair as if no one was around, and the little boy behind him followed the old man, and when he saw the old man walking, he hurriedly followed behind. The family knew that the stinky old man was here to help the disaster, so he didn't dare to slack off, and immediately served tea when the old man sat down.
The old man blew on the hot air and took a sip: "It's okay." ”
The five Shali people on the opposite side plus one Governor Zhang couldn't cry or laugh.
Nan Yuan's eyes were focused on the little boy, not caring at all what the old man said. Zhi Ge and Luo Yuxiao glanced at each other, Luo Yuyan was still smiling, Zhi Ge continued to be silent when he had a bottom in his heart, Sha Li and Lou Qingxiao smiled bitterly, at this time, they were still playing dumb riddles, and there was no one left.
The most difficult is Governor Zhang's mansion. On one side is the stinky old man who claims to be able to cure the epidemic, and on the other side is the general of the Silver Feather Guard who he can't afford to mess with his head. At this time, the old man didn't speak, the general and the real people didn't speak, and Governor Zhang was so anxious that cold sweat broke out on his forehead.
"General......" Governor Zhang smiled bitterly and looked at Zhi Ge.
"Young Master Luo, you better make a statement." Zhi Ge didn't want to look at Governor Zhang's embarrassment.
Sha Li said: "No, what's going on here." ”
"Again, why can't we save the people without us?" Lou Qingxiao also relieved himself, and the more he thought about it, the more strange he felt.
Luo Yuyan said to the prefect: "It seems that the doubts should be solved first." Luo Yuyan raised his voice, "Old man, since you want to keep us, you don't have to embarrass the prefect." ”
"Haha, you juniors are quite shrewd and know how to control the situation. Are you afraid that the old man will not be able to trick you? The old man laughed.
"Don't dare, you're a senior. As the so-called teacher is famous, you have to tell a thing or two about this name. Luo Yuyan was gentle and elegant, and the words were to the point.
"Good guts." The old man showed an approving gaze, and he was not as arrogant as just now, "The old man can see at a glance that you are cultivators, and two of them have deliberately hidden their breath. The old man stared at Nan Yuan and Luo Yuyan, and the two of them were like no one, Nan Yuan didn't look at the old man, and Luo Yuyan still maintained an elegant smile.
The old man thought that if he broke through the disguise of the two, the two of them could be a little flustered, but he didn't expect that they didn't hear it, and he couldn't see any waves, so the old man had to put away his mind and began to face the group of juniors in front of him.
Of course, the old man didn't know that one of these two people was an old monster who had practiced for thousands of years, and the other was an old fox who was more shrewd than a thousand-year-old monster.
"Okay, I'm not going to talk nonsense." The old man said, "The medicine boy and I can't collect the medicine, so we need your help." ”
Finally telling the truth, Luo Yuyan nodded with satisfaction.
Governor Zhang said: "There are not enough people, I can let the officials go." ”
The old man waved his hand: "It's useless, those medicinal materials are only wrapped by cultivators with true qi, so they are not afraid of losing their medicinal properties." ”
Everyone knows. Sha Li just wanted to speak, but was blocked by Luo Yuyan.
Luo Yuyan said: "For the sake of the people of Baiwu City, it is incumbent on me to collect medicine. It's just that, sir, you always have to make a statement about this matter first. ”
The old man's eyelids kept jumping, and he knew in his heart that he had met a shrewd master. "Tell me, what do you want?" When the old man saw the move, as long as the other party proposed it, he said that he couldn't do it, and it was most convenient to do this kind of thing.
Everyone's eyes were focused on Luo Yuyan, in the eyes of everyone, every move of Pianpian Jia Gongzi was enjoyment, but only Sha Li and others understood best, it was all appearance. People who have suffered losses in Luo Yuyan know a truth, this time it is planted, don't worry, there is a next time waiting for you.
The old man suddenly had some heart palpitations, and he had a sense of foreboding.
Luo Yuyan tilted his head, just in time to see the stars outside from the open door, and said leisurely: "It's good to have a promise, I'll talk about it later." ”
"......" The old man felt that he had lost a lot.
