Ye Nono's eyes widened as he looked at the empty courtyard at his feet, which had been cleaned by the servants, and seemed to be in a daze.

Ye Zhengming's heart naturally had a thought, and he slapped his daughter on the back lightly, and said in a commanding tone: "What do you look like?" Sit up straight. ”

Unexpectedly, with this slight palm, he directly slapped Ye Nuonuo down from the two steps in the backyard.

Ye Nuonuo's sitting posture is indeed very incorrect, the center of gravity of the body is all inclined to the front, when the body is pushed forward by external force, she subconsciously wants to take a step forward to block the body from continuing to lean forward, but in front of her is two steps and the ground volley, so her whole person continues to roll down like a ball of shrimp balls.

Ye Zhengming didn't expect that he was just a light slap and had such an impact on his daughter, but it was too late for him to get up and pull her. The hand hanging in the air reached forward, but he grabbed the air, and he couldn't help but be stunned when he looked at his daughter who was about to slam her whole face on the cold hard ground.

At this moment, a gray shadow suddenly flashed in the courtyard.

When Ye Nuonuo, who was still in a daze just now, came back to his senses, the feeling of leaning his body and the cold and hard floor tiles were already close in front of him. Before she could hit the ground, she was already screaming, but when one of her screams was over, she felt no stiffness on her face, just a dull pain in her collarbone.

Opening her eyes, which were closed with nervousness, she quickly saw a ghostly face of different skin tones and textures hidden under a puff of dry hair, and she screamed again and sat back.

Just now, when Ye Nuonuo was about to smash one of his faces into a flat flatbread, the gray figure that suddenly popped out was Wu Shu who had just come out of the backyard wing. Wu Shu stretched out an arm to block the position of Ye Nuonuo's neck at the speed of a meteor close to the ground, and at the same time urged the true qi ring in his body to go up to the arm. As much as possible, reduce the force of the shock that Yenono's body will bear when it hits with all the strength of his body.

Yenono dodged the danger, but was once again frightened by his face. And Wu Shu just now in order to assist Ye Zheng in applying medicine to Mo Ye, he almost poured out his whole body to stabilize Mo Ye's heart veins with his true qi for two consecutive hours. After Mo Ye's treatment was over, he stayed by her bedside to breathe quietly, and the rest of less than an hour allowed him to recover only a little bit of strength, and in the process of helping Ye Nuonuo at this time, he was once again consumed.

Standing up, Wu Shu's steps shook slightly, and his chest was also a little unstable, which was already a rare bad situation for him who was good at light skills and hidden breath for many years.

Ye Zhengming had already stood up from his chair. Quickly stepped down the steps and picked up his daughter, who was sitting on the ground. After asking a few questions, he turned his face to look at Wu Shu, who was gasping slightly. Noticing that his lip color was not normal, he asked with some concern, "How are you, are you okay?" ”

Wu Shu didn't speak, just shook his head slightly, and then walked up the steps. sat down cross-legged on the spot next to the chair Ye Zhengming was sitting on just now.

Seeing this, Ye Zhengming groaned for a moment, and then instructed his daughter: "Nuo'er, you go into the house to take care of that sister, I have something to talk about with this uncle." ”

Ye Nuonuo, who was a little frightened, nodded when he heard the sound.

During the treatment of the elder sister just now, she saw the ugly and terrible uncle slap his father with a slap and cough up blood, although he explained to her afterwards that it was a part of the plan. But when she saw the strange-faced uncle again after this incident, she still felt a little scared in her heart. This fear was not only because of his face, but also because she was afraid that he would hurt her father again, even if he did it voluntarily.

Timidly, he quietly stared at the strange uncle who was sitting cross-legged by his father's chair. Yenino's hand in his sleeve clenched for a moment, then turned and went into the room.

Ye Zhengming stared at his daughter's back, and only then did he walk back to the chair and sit down until her figure was completely out of the door. I saw that Wu Shu's chest was still rising and falling slightly, panting. He couldn't help but ask again, "Are you okay?" ”

Wu Shu didn't turn his face to look at him, staring at what was in front of him. There was a hint of tiredness in his voice: "It's okay, it's you." ”

Ye Zhengming smiled silently and said, "It would be nice if Liao Shi was here." He would use some potions of animal fat, which would work faster, and he should be able to find a substitute for those herbs, and if he used it just now, you would have suffered less. ”

Wu Shuxi's pursed lips moved slightly, but he didn't speak, just shook his head. After a moment of silence, he took a deep breath and slowly exhaled, and the breath that had been a little obvious gradually subsided. Then he finally turned his face to the old acquaintance beside him, and asked in a calm voice, "Has every healer done something similar to what you did today?" ”

"What's the matter?" Ye Zhengming stared.

After pondering for a while, Wu Shu said four words: "Empathize." ”

Ye Zhengming groaned: "The ancestors of the medical world should have done a lot of such things, they are the ones who are at the forefront of this road, and the people who open the way must be able to overcome obstacles." The predecessors planted trees and the later generations inherited the shade, and now the medical profession is rich in classics, and there are not many places where it is necessary to do so. ”

Wu Shu nodded, but at the same time, he didn't fully agree and said: "The pioneers have taken the old road that they are familiar with, and the younger generations will naturally be more comfortable to walk again, but there will always be one or two people in every walk in this world who are not far away. ”

Ye Zhengming's eyes froze for a moment, and then gradually became stricter, looked at Wu Shu and said, "What do you really want to say, just say it." ”

There was a hint of hesitation in Wu Shu's eyes, and when he spoke, his tone was calm, but the words he said made Ye Zhengming stunned.

"Earlier, you mentioned the strange doctor of the quenching medicine puppet, and I suddenly had some doubts about Liao Shi......"

Regarding Wu Shu's words, Ye Zhengming just shook his head and didn't say anything. After a moment of silence, he sighed again.

"Liao Shi is a teacher of enlightenment for you. You yourself said that it was when you saw him make up for my face that year, and you were shocked and had the idea of studying medicine. Of course, you don't believe that he is the dehumanized doctor, but I don't say this to be hostile to him, and I need to repay him more than you do. ”

Wu Shu calmly recounted these words, and there was no other emotion in his tone, neither hatred nor gratitude. Ye Zhengming, who was sitting quietly and listening, originally wanted to say something, but was affected by Wu Shu's calmness, and finally continued to keep his silence.

"As a pioneer, there are always the most difficult and unpredictable obstacles to face, such as what you do today." After being silent for a moment, Wu Shu spoke again, his tone still calm, "This is where my doubts about Liao Shi lie. You have been in the Taiyi Bureau for a few years, but you can't master the kind of animal lipid liquid medicine you said, but you know that Liao Shi can master this pharmaceutical skill, which shows that he should be the pioneer of this technique, and master the latest results of this technique, but he has not made this technique public, why is this? At least for you, he should be able to spread some of it. ”

Ye Zhengming's expression moved slightly, and he vaguely realized what Wu Shu wanted to say, but he still didn't say a word.

"If the new path of medical skills needs to be verified by 'empathy', then where did Liao Shi get so much courage and luck, to do so many things, and to go further than others?" When Wu Shu said this, he stretched out his fingers and pressed his face with a different color at a fast speed, "Changing faces is also one of them." ”

"I believe he has the courage to explore, as for luck......" Ye Zhengming finally spoke, and after a little hesitation, he did not hide a secret that Liao Shi had told him, and said slowly: "Liao Shi's physique is indeed different from ordinary people, at least for poisonous substances, although he is not completely unscrupulous, but it is indeed many times stronger than ordinary people's tolerance. ”

Ye Zhengming said such things now, it was easy for Wu Shu to think of the medicine puppet he had just mentioned, but he didn't admit that Liao Shi was a strange doctor, Ye Zhengming, who took the initiative to talk about it, naturally he wouldn't equate the two so quickly.

Ye Zhengming continued: "I know from Yan Guang, the most senior physician in the Taiyi Bureau, that Liao Shi used to say how handsome he was when he was young, and every time he walked on the street, he would make the girl's family turn back...... Cough...... But then he rarely said that, because no one believed it. Liao Shi's current appearance of being old and ugly, according to his own words, was caused by a failed drug test. Although he did not die because of that medicine, his physique has changed a lot, and his appearance has also changed. ”

When he said this, he turned his head to look at Wu Shu, who was sitting cross-legged on the stone steps next to the chair, and after thinking for a while, he continued: "Maybe it's because of his experience of changing his physique that he thought of matching the kind of medicine that changes Ye'er's physique, but that doesn't mean that he is a medicine puppet." Although Yan Guang had never seen Liao Shi's so-called young and handsome appearance, even if he assumed that when he first met Liao Shi, Liao Shi was only twenty years old, so calculating his age, this matter would not be reasonable. ”

Knowing Liao Shi's secret, which few people know nowadays, Wu Shu didn't show much surprise, he just blindly remained silent.

"People who know him have a lot of incomprehension about him, and even Yan Guang, who has extensive knowledge in medical Taoism, is suspicious of him." Ye Zhengming said slowly, the meaning of his words was indirectly equivalent to forgiving Wu Shu's somewhat malicious suspicion of Liao Shi before.
