Chapter 126: Shenyang, Shenyang (3)
Snow ginseng, a treasure that is difficult to find in the world, what Xu Xiaobai wants to get the most, only in the ancient classics, it has only been preserved in ancient classics, for a thousand years, no one has ever seen it again, does this kind of thing really still exist in this world?
If anyone knows, then this person must have grown up in the forest and snow fields of the Xing'an Mountains since he was a child, right?
What Xu Xiaobai didn't expect was that he would meet such a person by such a coincidence. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
Looking at Xu Xiaobai's eager eyes, Xiaoqing, who has always been not afraid of heaven and earth, was actually a little scared, because Xu Xiaobai's eyes at the moment seemed to be about to eat her raw.
Because of her profession, she has also seen all kinds of men, some of them pretend to be high and calm, some are full of hungry wolf nature, and some are obscene, honest, and even pure, but Xiaoqing has never seen anyone like Xu Xiaobai, whose eyes burst out with a daunting but want to explore. Xiaoqing's mood was a little strange, and some feelings that she had never experienced were born and indescribable.
She leaned back slightly, making the distance between herself and Xu Xiaobai farther, and then she stammered a little: "You ask...... Snow ginseng? ”
Xu Xiaobai nodded heavily and said, "Yes, snow ginseng, a precious medicinal material, is said to be only available in Xing'anling, you ...... Ever seen it? His tone trembled because of his nervousness, for fear that he would hear an answer he didn't want to hear.
Xiaoqing pondered hard in her mind, and said slowly: "I have been away from my hometown for a long time, and there are many things there that I can't remember clearly. I can't remember this snow ginseng you said......"
Sure enough, it was a disappointing answer, but Xu Xiaobai didn't have the idea of giving up, he hurriedly took out his mobile phone, called up the picture of snow ginseng, and held it in front of Xiaoqing's eyes: "Look like this, have you ever seen it?" ”
Xiaoqing looked at the picture seriously, and thought hard in her mind again: "This ...... Isn't it the ginseng of our Northeast...... Thinner than a human body, maybe some special variety of ginseng, I don't know, I can't tell the difference. There are many types of ginseng. ”
Xu Xiaobai still didn't give up, and continued to ask, "Is there any way to confirm?" It's important to me, very important. ”
At this time, the proprietress served the noodle bowl, Xiaoqing pulled two mouthfuls of noodles, but Xu Xiaobai didn't mean to move the chopsticks, he didn't want to do anything until he figured out the problem of snow ginseng. Xiaoqing ate two bites of noodles, and saw that Xu Xiaobai was still looking at her eagerly, being stared at with this kind of eyes, and she was in no mood to eat noodles, she knew that Xu Xiaobai would not give up if she didn't give an explanation, so she had to say: "I can't be sure, but I have a distant relative, he is an old Chinese medicine doctor, and he is very familiar with the medicinal materials born and grown in our area, maybe he can be sure." ”
Xu Xiaobai saw a glimmer of hope and hurriedly asked about the person's situation. Xiaoqing sighed and said, "That's one of my uncles, since I was very young, he was a famous barefoot doctor in the village. Later, the young people in our village came out to wander around, and there were fewer and fewer people left in the village, and his business became less and less good. Later, a health clinic was opened in the village, and doctors transferred from the county hospital opened it, and Western medicine was effective in treating diseases, and my uncle's earthwork was even more unacceptable. When I left the village, he was already poor and almost in need of food, and now I don't know if he is still in the village, or maybe he has gone out to work. ”
Listening to Xiaoqing's words, Xu Xiaobai's brows furrowed more and more, but as long as that person was still alive, he would definitely do everything he could to find that person. He hesitated in his heart for a long time, and had already figured out his next move, and hurriedly said to Xiaoqing: "I'm going to your hometown to find your uncle." You show me the way. ”
Xiao Qing looked at him stunned, with a look of embarrassment on her face.
Of course, Xu Xiaobai knew what she was embarrassed about, so without saying a word, she took out a bank card from her wallet and slapped it on the table: "There are 100,000 yuan in this card, as long as the uncle who accompanies me to find you, the 100,000 yuan is yours." ”
Xiao Qing's face showed a very wonderful expression, a little incredulous, and asked, "What you said is true?" ”
Xu Xiaobai directly stuffed the card into her hand and said, "I never tell lies. When I find your uncle, I will tell you the password of the card, and you can take 100,000 yuan and leave. ”
Xiao Qing silently pinched the card in her hand, raised her head and asked, "Why did you find this snow ginseng?" ”
Xu Xiaobai sighed heavily, and only said after a while: "Naturally, it's to save my life, please help me." ”
Xiaoqing wanted to ask again, but Xu Xiaobai didn't want to say more, Xiaoqing finally nodded and said, "Okay, I promise you." ”
Xu Xiaobai is in the mood to pick up the noodle bowl and eat noodles, although this noodle is not expensive, the craftsmanship of the proprietress is very authentic, especially the spoonful of lard mixed in the noodle soup, which has always been the essence of Yangchun noodles, and every bite of soup has a very strong taste. It's just that Xu Xiaobai is in an excited mood now, and he can't feel the taste of anything he eats, and this bowl of Yangchun is really a waste for him.
Xiaoqing ate sweetly, thinking that she would soon get 100,000 yuan, her heart felt like a big stone falling to the ground, she needed money very much, so she would be reduced to the point of standing on the street.
The two of them ate the noodles cleanly, Xu Xiaobai wanted to pay, but found that there was no penny left in the wallet, Xiaoqing didn't care about him, took out twenty yuan to pay the bill, said goodbye to the proprietress, and then went out to Xu Xiaobai's Land Rover.
The car started and was about to drive forward, but Xiaoqing stopped Xu Xiaobai: "Are you going to leave now?" I still have a little more to do, after all, I don't know how long it will take to be back this time, so you can arrange for me. ”
Of course, Xu Xiaobai wanted to hurry up, but now that he had a request for Xiaoqing, he didn't dare to urge her too much, so he had to agree. Xiaoqing asked Xu Xiaobai to drive the car to the SY City People's Hospital, where she wanted to go to the hospital to see people.
The car drove for half an hour and stopped at the entrance of the People's Hospital. Xu Xiaobai got out of the car with Xiaoqing, but was stopped by her: "It's okay for me to go by myself, don't come with me." ”
Xu Xiaobai shook his head: "You took my card, I will let you lead the way, if you run away, what will I do." I'm going to follow you all the time. ”
Xiaoqing hesitated for a while, and finally nodded, but said, "Then you can only wait at the door of the ward, and you can't go in." ”
Xu Xiaobai agreed, the two walked into the hospital building, went straight to the inpatient area, took the elevator to the eighteenth floor, and walked to a separate ward, Xiaoqing said hello to the nurse at the door, the nurse was obviously very familiar with her, let her in, Xu Xiaobai was waiting at the door. He glanced up at the door number on the ward: ICU, it turned out to be the intensive care unit.
The reason why he can rest assured not to follow him in is not because he believes in Xiaoqing so much, but because this wall can't stop his hearing at all, and he can hear Xiaoqing's actions and words inside, so it's better to respect people's privacy and don't make people feel uncomfortable.
Xiaoqing walked into the ward and walked to the bed, where there was a skinny young man lying on the bed, his eyes were closed, he was in a deep coma, his body was inserted with dense tubes and instruments, and a monitor next to him was ringing, monitoring the man's physiological state, I don't know what disease he was suffering from, and he would be treated so strictly.
Xiaoqing gently stroked the man's cheek, and infinite tenderness appeared in her eyes: "Brother Dali, I'm coming to see you again." If Xu Xiaobai was in the room and saw Xiaoqing's expression, he would definitely be able to easily guess that this person must be Xiaoqing's sweetheart, and the woman's emotional appearance is too easy to distinguish.
She sat down on the chair next to the bed and gently held the man's hand, which was cold and did not respond: "The doctor called me and said that your condition is still stable and there is no change. It's been three years since the disease doesn't get worse, and it's the best news, isn't it? ”
Sickness? Xu Xiaobai was slightly stunned, and pricked up his ears even more, what kind of illness did this man have?
"The medical bills were not enough for the first few days, and I really couldn't earn it, so I asked the doctor for a few days. I happened to meet a soldier today, and he almost hit me, don't worry, I wasn't hurt, but I was taken aback. The soldier brother was very generous and gave me 1500, and I will hand it over to you later. ”
No wonder she worked so hard to make money, even at the expense of selling her hue to make money, it turned out to pay for the man's medical bills. Xu Xiaobai suddenly remembered that when he was in the car before, he thought that Xiaoqing's life experience was too old-fashioned, and he talked nonsense, persuading her that she should make up a story that her brother was seriously ill and needed money for treatment, and Xiaoqing had an emotional breakdown at that time. Now I understand, no wonder her reaction is so big, it turns out that she accidentally really said her situation, but the person who was sick was not her brother, but her lover.
In an instant, Xu Xiaobai's perception of Xiaoqing completely changed.
Xiaoqing in the room was still talking, but her voice gradually became quieter, and Xu Xiaobai had to listen more intently before he could vaguely hear some general information: "That person's name is Xu Xiaobai, and he asked me to accompany him to Xing'anling to find medicinal materials...... I didn't want to say yes...... He is also here to save people, and he is also a fallen person at the end of the world, so I will help him...... He promised to give me 100,000 yuan so that you could receive three more courses of treatment...... Brother, you must get better......" There was a faint sound of sobbing coming from inside the house, almost inaudible.
Xu Xiaobai thought that there was nothing worth listening to, and slowly relaxed his mind, just at this moment, the nurse came in to change the dressing, the nurse passed by him, and looked at him curiously, Xu Xiaobai saw that the nurse was holding a hard splint in her hand, with a medical record sheet on it, with his super eyesight, he glanced at the list and saw the diagnosis written on it: thalassemia.
