Chapter 32: The Temple Breaking Dispute

Ling'er's family naturally has nothing, Daddy guessed right, fortunately, Dad and herself didn't have much hope, she didn't feel angry or sad after confirming the news, and thanked Aunt Zeng with a light smile: "Well, yes!" Maybe it's because my father and mother are not surnamed Wang, it doesn't matter, there will always be a way, thank you Aunt Zeng! ”

Ling'er jumped to the entrance of the village with a basket on her back, and Aunt Zeng stood at the door for a long time, shaking her head and sighing: "Alas! I didn't expect this girl to really have an enlightened day! It's a pity that her family is in that situation, and I don't know how long her father and mother can last! ”

When Ling'er left the village, she was not busy going to the town, but really dug up wild vegetables while walking, and when she arrived in the town, the back basket was already fluffy and fluffy!

It's noon, and the small vendors at the entrance of the town have begun to pack up their things, and Xu Banxian's stall is empty. Ling'er calculates the time, hey, today should be the day when the old man comes out of the stall, why didn't he come? Nothing will happen, right?

So she trotted all the way up the hill, and as soon as she reached the ruined temple, she heard the cursing and clanging of several men inside! Ling'er was startled, quickly hid behind the broken wall, and secretly looked inside, and saw several men in tattered clothes and messy hair scolding while throwing things out:

"Damn old thing, Lao Tzu dares to occupy his territory, don't fuck me and break your legs!"

And Xu Banxian, who was also messy, hung a man's arm and shouted: "My medicine, return me!" My medicine! ”

The man threw the herbs out of his hand and scolded: "Medicine! Hmph, a handful of rotten grass, brothers, throw all this rotten grass away for me, and trample on it, lest this old god stick take it to deceive people again! ”

The other men really threw all the herbs into the courtyard and trampled on them for a while, and Xu Banxian trembled and pounced: "Don't step on it, don't step on it, that's a life-saving thing!" Don't step on it! ”

The person who had just given the order turned around and crossed his hands on his hips: "Hmph, what is it that saves people's lives?" It's pretty much the same thing that kills people! Xu Banxian, do you think we won't recognize you if you change places and clothes? Aren't you the famous Xu Kaiming who treated the dead in the provincial capital twenty years ago? Why, haven't you had enough time in prison? Do you want to continue to harm others and go to prison again? Hehe, people like you can only be held in a big prison! Brothers, throw him out for me! ”

Ling'er saw that those people really wanted to make a move, how could Xu Banxian, an old man with old arms and legs, withstand their tossing, she quickly put down the back basket, picked up a wooden stick and rushed in: "Stop!" ”

The men looked back and saw that it was just a poor little girl, so they didn't take it to heart, and continued to drag Xu Banxian. In a hurry, Ling'er rushed up to several men with a stick on their arms, and the men screamed in pain, holding their arms and retreating again and again!

The leading man was stunned, and looked at Ling'er with a look, "Little girl, this old man is a liar, we are for the people, don't meddle in your business!" ”

Ling'er held a stick in front of Xu Banxian: "I only know that his medicine can save my father, if you bully him, I will take care of it!" ”

"What? Can his medicine save your father? Little girl, don't you want this old liar to deceive, this old thing used to lie around under the guise of a doctor, and nine out of ten of the patients he has seen die, I advise you to go to the hospital to see the doctor! ”

Yun Shu put the stick in front of him: "I know if he can cure my father, I don't have to worry about you!" ”

Several men looked at each other, and at the end, the leader waved his hand and said, "Whatever you want, if your father is healed to death by this old liar, don't blame us for not reminding you!" Also, this ruined temple has always been our brother's territory, and everyone in the town knows that if you want to be rare with this old liar, take him away quickly, and dare to come and grab our territory again, don't blame us for being polite! ”

"Hmph, it's just a broken temple, who is rare!" Ling'er squatted down: "Doctor Xu, how is it?" Can you stand up? ”

"Medicine, my medicine!" Xu Banxian grabbed the herbs on the ground in distress, and the old tears were rampant! Ling'er was sad, and after some comfort, he helped him out of the broken temple. The two rested against the broken wall for a while, and Ling'er looked inside and saw that the men were packing their things.

I didn't pay attention to it, but now when I look closely, I find that those men are all skinny, and some of them are old and young, they are either lame, or blind in one eye, or have injuries on their bodies! They all had a bamboo stick and a broken bowl in their hands, but the leader was dressed decently, and the others were in tattered clothes, sluggish, and slow!

Ling'er was guessing the identity of this group of people, and suddenly Xu Banxian sighed: "Alas, they are also poor people!" ”

Ling'er bowed her head: "Doctor Xu, just now they bullied you so much, and you still help them speak?" ”

"Forget it, it's just some beggars, this place was originally their foothold, I occupied other people's territory, it's nothing to scold a few words!"

"They also ruined your medicine, don't you feel distressed?"

"Alas, that's it, those herbs themselves are not worth a few dollars, and they are destroyed and dug again!"

Ling'er looked at him in surprise, he didn't expect this arrogant and arrogant old man Xu to have such a humble and kind side! The old man seemed to notice Ling'er's gaze, and turned his head uncomfortably and said, "I'm just pitiful of them!" ”

Ling'er smiled: "Doctor Xu, if you pity others, others may not pity you!" ”

"Humph! They are all laymen, and the old man doesn't care about them! ”

Ling'er is happy, it's all like this, and the old man is still there! She blinked deliberately and said, "May I ask this old master, what are your plans in the future?" Is there a place to stay? ”

Doctor Xu was stunned for a moment, his eyes walked along the downstream of the mountain, and finally fell on the vast mountain that was not far away from the sky: "Alas, that's it, since there is no room for me here, a lonely old man, it is better to go into the mountain and be a hermit!" ”

Ling'er looked at the direction of the vast mountain, thought for a while, and said, "Doctor Xu, the vast mountains and trees are deep and the forests are deep, and there are many wild beasts in it, even if you find a suitable place to live, what should you do with clothes and food?" Do you also want to learn from hunters, hunting, eating meat, and wearing fur? Also, the vast mountain is about to be closed, beware of whether you can get in or out! ”

"Bah, dead girl, can you say something auspicious? When did I say I was going to enter the Vast Mountains now? ”

"When will you not go now?"

"I ...... Keep digging and selling medicine! ”

Ling'er was silent, and the person just now also said, not to mention the nearby towns, I'm afraid that people in several nearby counties and state capitals know his name, and even beggars know him, where else can I go? No matter where he goes, it's only a matter of time before he is recognized! Alas, this old man has a fight with his father at his age, but he didn't expect to be worse than his father!

Ling'er's heart was full of sympathy for a while, if only she could help the old man! Suddenly, she rolled her eyes and said tentatively: "Doctor Xu, my father and mother are the same age as you, and their health is not good, especially my father, who has to take medicine every day."

If...... If you don't dislike it, you might as well go to my house for a few months, so that you can see a doctor for your parents and help them recuperate; Second, you can talk to your father and relieve boredom, and thirdly, we also save money for medicine and medical treatment, so how about the money to cover your living expenses? ”

Xu Banxian was a little surprised when he heard this, and asked uncertainly after a while: "Are you really willing to let me go to your house?" ”

"Yes, yes, it's just that the family is poor and simple, and the food is average, I'm afraid it's not much better than this broken temple, Doctor Xu doesn't want to dislike it!"

Xu Banxian was still incredulous: "Does your father know my past reputation?" ”
