(282), can't go back
I can't help but ps.,The reason why you can't go in the previous chapter should be very clear.,But does anyone know the reason why you can't go back in this chapter? This chapter is more subtle than the previous one, but careful people should be able to understand it, right? β¦β¦
"I know." Liao Shichong Yan Xingzhi smiled slightly, and then said: "So I have to go, and you go home first." I ran back just to get my medicine basket, not to take you with me. β
"I'm with you if you need it now." When Yan Xingzhi looked at Liao Shi and said this, Pei Yin, who was standing beside him, looked moved.
Just as Pei Yin was about to open his mouth to repeat the opinion he insisted on, he listened to Yan Xing and said, "However, I don't agree with your way back now. β
"It's your business that you don't agree." Liao Shi straightened the bamboo basket on his back, and his smile gradually faded, "Go home quickly!" Be careful along the way. β
Yan Xingzhi saw that Liao Shi turned around and wanted to leave, and his gentle eyebrows stood steeply.
"This should be said to the pharmacist by the late student!" Yan Xingzhi said that, he glanced sideways and gave Pei Yin a look.
However, he was soon rewarded with surprise and disappointment.
This scene fell into Liao Shi's eyes, and he stopped and laughed dryly without any pleasure.
After glancing at Pei Yin, who was standing motionless in place, Liao Shi's gaze fell on Yan Xingzhi's stunned face that had not completely dissipated, and there was a hint of contempt in his words: "My young medicine boy, you may not know, but the one who accompanies you does. If you want to force me to stay, the most basic thing for the person who makes the move is not to show an inch of skin outside the clothes. β
Yan Xingzhi looked at Liao Shi and didn't say another word.
"I am a pharmacist, and although I am knowledgeable in medicine, I may not be merciful." Liao Shi's words were said very slowly, as if he was patiently explaining the difference between pharmacists and physicians for Yan Xingzhi. It was like mocking himself.
After a pause, Liao Shi reached into his arms and touched it, took out a small bottle and threw it to Yan Xingzhi, and said lightly: "This thing is for you to defend yourself on the road, if you encounter a killer again, just use a dagger to cut off this bottleneck, and then throw it out." β
Yan Xingzhi held the vial in his hand, glanced down, and immediately asked, "What is this?" β
Liao Shi said casually: "Highly poisonous." β
Pei Yin, who was standing on the side, suddenly snatched the vial in Yan Xingzhi's hand and glanced at the mouth of the bottle with a vigilant look. After making sure that it was not damaged, he looked at Liao Shi with this gaze again, and said in a deep voice: "I don't know what other mysteries there are in this thing." I have to work with the pharmacist to solve my doubts. β
Liao Shi said lightly: "What mystery can there be?" Just do what I said, but I hope you don't have to use it, because if you run into a killer like that, even if something powerful is around, you'll have to take a risk. β
"Pharmacist. Don't just say half the story. Pei Yin's attitude changed from his previous calmness to a little cold, he didn't care about the kindness in Liao Shi's words, and the feelings in return were more cold and suspicious, "When you encounter a killer in the city, why don't you use this thing?" β
"You've been by Yan Guang's side for a long time, I should be able to think of it. You will not be able to fully trust me just like him, alas......" Liao Shi sighed, and continued: "The medicine hidden in the bottleneck and the medicine in the bottle are not the same category. But when these two drugs collide together, there will be a fierce and highly toxic effect, that is, an expanded poisonous mist. There are so many people in the city, how do you ask me to use it. β
Pei Yin's face froze.
He suddenly remembered when the three of them walked down a street and suddenly encountered those killers after entering the city. Although there were indeed many people on the street, those people saw them being chased by the killers. The only reaction he made was to avoid it, and he couldn't help but feel a little confused. People, do you really need to put yourself in danger for the sake of these strangers who meet in the water? If there hadn't been for the appearance of those clothed men to rescue them just now, the three of them might have already become dead people under the killer's knife. When they walked on Huangquan Road, who would care about Liao Shi's reason for refusing to use the poison bottle?
And Liao Shi, since he began to make a name for himself in the medical world, he has successively treated several patients who are either noble or illustrious, and the medical community's bad evaluation of him is almost equal to his mastery of medicine, so does he really care so much about the life and death of ordinary people?
When Pei Yin was falling silent for the two thoughts that he couldn't control in his heart, Liao Shi spoke again, and he said quickly: "I have always carried this poison with me, and this kind of poison is not suitable for more people to know, so if you don't use it on the way back, please keep it, and when I go to find you, you will return it to me." β
Pei Yin pinched the small bottle, not knowing what to say for a while. However, Yan Xingzhi thought that Liao Shi was unwilling to use poison in a crowded place, and he still couldn't let go of his worries about his decision to return to the city, so he couldn't help but hold on again, "Pharmacist, if you go back alone like this, what are you going to do to defend yourself?" You don't use poison, what else can you use? β
"I'm going to follow that group into the city, so that if anything happens to me, I just have to shout." When Liao Shi said this, he suddenly slapped his thigh, looked at the direction where the young men in cloth were leaving, and exclaimed: "Hey! I can't tell you more, those young men are fast, and the working lady will be gone after a while, and I have to hurry up. β
Seeing Liao Shi running, Yan Xingzhi chased after him, and shouted at the same time: "Who is in Kyoto that makes you go in such a hurry?" β
Liao Shi didn't answer his question, just threw out a few words in the back of his mind: "You go back!" β
Yan Xingzhi suddenly felt a sinking of his shoulders, and he who was chasing after Liao Shi was quickly clasped by Pei Yin, who was catching up with him later, and Yan Xingzhi, who could only stop, looked at Liao Shi's back, and suddenly shouted: "That person must have a good status, but why do you always have to do such a thing?" Don't you think you've killed enough nobles? Why do you need to go again? β
Yan Xingzhi's words were ruthless and mean, but the purpose was obvious.
He wanted to make the skinny old man angry, come back and scold him, and then he couldn't catch up with the young men in cloth. At the same time, he was a little helpless, if the little bottle that the old man gave him was not a poison, he might have used it immediately.
Liao Shi really stopped, he looked back at Yan Xing, but there was not much anger on his face, he just said calmly: "Those who are destined to die, die and die!" Maybe I'll still face failure this time, but I have to treat that person as much as I can. Healing is a skill, and I don't mix too much emotion with this skill. β
Yan Xingzhi was stunned.
Most of the healers are repeating the successful treatment, but the old man in front of him doesn't seem to be interested in that treatment. He used his reputation in the medical Tao again and again to challenge the ultimate in medical Taoism, but he was very unlucky to fail again and again, and his reputation has become extremely stinky.
And his so-called skills have nothing to do with love, and they are even more false. Without a strong passion for medicine, how could he have failed so many times, and still not give up his exploration of medicine even though his body was deformed due to the development of potions? And the most obvious thing at this time is that he is in a hurry to run to Kyoto, which may still be full of killers, which is basically the result of being controlled by the love xΓΉ.
Perhaps it can be said that finding Liao Shi's killer was a move to cut off the back road by someone behind the scenes when he assassinated that important person in Beijing. Their troubles were all caused by the important person who might have been in danger, and the best course of action for them at this time was to abandon the man in Kyoto and stay away from Kyoto. As long as the real targets of the killers disappear, these collateral factors that will affect the life and death of the target will naturally be insignificant.
When Yan Xingzhi silently figured out this step in his heart, the figure of Liao Shi in front of him was already far away.
After hesitating for a moment, Yan Xingzhi finally made a decision secretly.
He didn't break free of Pei Yin's hand holding his arm, but just looked at Pei Yin with a firm look and said slowly: "Uncle Pei, I'm going to Kyoto." β
Pei Yin looked at Yan Xingzhi, his eyes were full of surprise, and when he was about to speak, he saw Yan Xingzhi suddenly turn up the sleeve of his right hand and fade the sleeve to his armpit.
Pei Yin's gaze fell on the root of Yan Xingzhi's arm, his eyes suddenly opened, and he lost his voice: "Young master, you ......"
"I don't want to go home, and I can't seem to go home at the moment."
The 'don't want to' and 'can't' in his words first heard the same meaning, and they were a little abrupt when put together, but Pei Yin, who swept his eyes over the inch of skin between Yan Xing's arms, was very clear about the helplessness and sadness contained in these two words.
Yan Xingzhi smiled slightly, but there was a trace of bitterness at the end of that smile, "This time I don't need your urging, I have to go to see grandpa." β
β¦β¦
When Mo Ye woke up, his eyes were blank.
What caught the eye was a plain cotton tent, and there was no gauze tent on the bed in her bedroom.
So after a moment, she struggled and sat up with her sore arms. Looking around, there were strange things, only the fragrance of the bedding gradually awakened her memory.
That's the scent on the shiso clothes, here...... It is the Dongfeng Building.
When these three words appeared in her mind, Mo Ye's heart almost stopped beating, and then she hurriedly lifted the quilt and got out of bed and ran towards the door of the house.
The soles of her feet were weak and weak, her steps were staggering, and when she ran to the door, the door of the house happened to open from the outside, and a thin woman with plain makeup walked in, it was Zi Su who lived here, Mo Ye stretched out her hand to the door and felt the air, and threw herself into Zi Su's arms.
Mo Ye grabbed Zisu's arm and stood up straight, looked up to see Zisu's face clearly, and immediately asked urgently, "Is my master okay?" β
A complicated look quickly appeared in Shisu's eyes, and after hesitating for a moment, she didn't speak, just nodded.
Mo Ye noticed the discoloration in Zisu's eyes, although she had some doubts in her heart, but she didn't dare to believe the slightest suspicion, but half-deceived herself to think in a good direction, and at the same time asked, "Can I go and see?" β
