Chapter 236: Accomplices in Suffering and Suffering
Miss Liuxue had lunch at the inn, and then Bu'an was also a little troubled.
This girl only said that she would help him deal with the Lunatic Cult, and she didn't seem to have any intention of joining the Seven Divisions.
In this way, let her stay in the inn, after all, she is a native of Ningyang County, and if she doesn't return home, it seems that she can't say it;
He simply avoided the important and made a trick, first asking her for advice from the doctor, and then asking about the ins and outs of Ningyang County's suffering from the disaster of moon worship.
Xue Caiyu said that the so-called doctor is proficient in the art of Huang Lao, knows the human body and viscera, and uses spiritual power to smooth the five elements and shun yin and yang......
She saw that most of Bu'an's tents were Taoist scholars, and thought that Bu'an was also familiar with Lao Zhuang, and there were a lot of abbreviations between words.
Bu An was dizzy when he heard this, only knowing that doctors are also the same as ordinary cultivators, practicing with aura, but the spiritual power they have saved is used to save people, not hurt people.
This doctor naturally has a high realm, but there is no Confucianism, Taoism and Buddhism in the general inheritance of the orderly, plus there are many people in the rivers and lakes who pretend to be doctors and deceive, so that the situation is getting worse, and there are those who survive, and the good and the bad are uneven.
And because of the orthodox doctors, there is a suspicion of stealing the power of heaven to continue the life of people, and they are always short-lived. To this day, except for the Bianjing Imperial Court and those princes and princes of the family, there are very few in the market - among the medical halls that are open to welcome guests in various prefectures and counties, those so-called doctors only treat some bruises and injuries, and they also use Qihuang herbs instead of spiritual energy, which is very different from orthodox doctors.
Although Bu An only understands a general idea, as a university Chinese graduate, he still has the ability to summarize the "central idea": in the final analysis, orthodox doctors are hard to find, and being able to get the help of a medical saint like Miss Xue is tantamount to adding wings to the current Seven Divisions.
Then Miss Xue said that this year, the evil moon is coming, the people in the county are panicking, and all industries are withering. After staying up like this for two months, there were rumors in the market that the evil moon was reincarnated, but in fact, the moon official was patrolling for the sky, just like the minister, and the local filial piety was proper, and there would be no disaster.
The more this rumor is said, the more true it becomes, and there are more people to corroborate it: the Tingzhou Mansion uses children and men to worship the moon, and there are no ghosts anymore.
At first, Miss Xue only thought it was nonsense, but in April, the government actually made a big fanfare and set up a altar in a grand manner.
It wasn't until she saw the boy and the girl tied to a pillar and a fire to be lit underneath that she was shocked.
On that day, in front of the county office, Xue Caiyu angrily reprimanded Ningyang County's order, and ordered the ugly aunt to save people, but when she rescued people, she didn't retreat in a hurry, so she surrounded the people.
Most of the people in Ningyang knew Miss Xue and knew that her Xue family had been benevolent for generations, so they neither moved or cursed, but just cried and begged. I beg her to read the well-being of the people in the city, send back the boys and women, and let the government light a fire to worship the moon.
Miss Xue broke her liver and intestines, and finally compromised.
After she went back, she fell seriously ill, and when she recovered and went out, Ningyang County was already what it is now.
"The virgins and men that they used to sacrifice were bought from a foreign country. Then the people were so confused that they burned their own children, and no one spoke. ”
When Miss Xue said this, her expression was a little complicated.
"The city full of afflictions is all accomplices. Bu An smiled bitterly and shook his head.
"It's no wonder they," Xue Caiyu sighed, "They were all deceived." ”
Bu An disagreed with her, but he didn't want to argue with her, so he pondered for a long time, and then asked: "Does the girl think that the gentry in the city are considered accomplices?"
"They are also under the coercion of demons, and they have no choice but to do so. Xue Caiyu replied.
"As a last resort?" Bu An chuckled.
Xue Caiyu was surprised: "Childe has another opinion?"
"I only complain that the demons are too fierce, coercing the gentry, and complaining that the demons are cunning and deceiving the people," Bu An smiled and shook his head: "Girl, they say that you are kind-hearted, and it seems that this is the case." ”
Miss Xue was surprised, but the ugly girl on the side gritted her teeth and stopped talking.
"You burn other people's children, and others also burn your children, and you just report it back. Bu'an's face turned cold, "If stupidity can be used as an excuse, then it is too light to do evil." ”
Miss Xue was stunned, but the ugly aunt nodded slowly, this was the first time Bu An had seen their master and servant have different opinions.
"As for the gentry, the girl may not believe it, but they may not be unhappy with the trouble of this county. Bu An sneered: "Look at the ten households and nine emptiness in this city, have you ever thought about where so many farm house deeds, gold and silver goods have gone? Or in peacetime, hiring a short-term worker to do the work is just a bowl of gruel?"
Miss Xue stood up suddenly, as if she was frightened by the meaning of Bu'an's words. She looked at the ugly girl in a panic, as if asking for her opinion.
"Miss......" The ugly girl lowered her head and said very reluctantly, "Sometimes, people are a little more evil than beasts. ”
When Miss Xue heard this, she sat down suddenly, and her eyes seemed to lose their luster in an instant.
"Step Boy...... My Xue clan would rather die than be powerful, and I am willing to bury my head in the township, but it will not come to an end...... Just cured some well-dressed beasts?"
Bu An realized that what he just said was too direct for the simple woman in front of him, and shook his head to make up: "The girl is serious." There is evil in people's hearts, and there is naturally good, just like that half of a steamed bun...... Besides, most of the people in Ningyang County who are still sober are just like you, they hate the moon sacrifice, but they can't do anything. ”
When Xue Caiyu heard him say this, his face improved slightly.
Bu An struck while the iron was hot, and said: "The girl is kind-hearted, so naturally she can't see the strangeness here." I am a man, but not a good person, as I said before, for fame and fortune. Even if it happens to save the people from hanging upside down, it is only incidental. I don't know this girl. ”
Xue Caiyu was a little confused. She has never heard that there is a person who is dignified in the open and flies in the dark, but she has never seen it, like the step boy in front of her, he has to say ugly things in front, as if doing good deeds and accumulating virtue is a disaster that he is afraid of.
Bu An didn't explain, just changed the topic with a smile and asked, "By the way, I don't know if with the girl's medical skills, can I help those fools save some minds?"
"It can be done reluctantly," Miss Xue thought for a while and said, "It's just a drop in the bucket, but it will be a little better for a while, as long as the altar in the city is still there, after a few days, it will relapse again." ”
"If you can do it!" Bu An smiled and nodded, as if he hadn't heard her adding.
"You scholar, why don't you know how to pity the fragrance and cherish the jade!" The ugly aunt was anxious for a while, and blurted out: "My young lady saves the dead and helps the wounded, and she always refuses to come, and her spiritual power is already poor, and she has been seriously ill recently, and she almost moved her life!
"Oh......" Bu'an laughed and confessed, "This is my abruptness." At that time, Miss Xue will do what she can, don't be reluctant. ”
