Chapter 200: The Flute in the Middle of the Night

On the western outskirts of the city is a small river, and sick people lie on its banks. Their condition was not as serious as they had imagined, perhaps because they had already drunk the decoction concocted by the two Wen brothers to overcome cholera.

When Wen Liangshu and I arrived, the sick greeted us happily from afar.

"Doctor Wen!" They called enthusiastically.

Wen Liangshu waved to them and handed me a silk handkerchief.

"What?" I stared at him with wide eyes.

"Cover it up to prevent the cholera virus from spreading it to you." Wen Liangshu smiled shyly. His smile was pure and determined.

I obediently took the silk handkerchief and covered my face.

As Wen Liangshu walked among the patients and watched him meticulously check the patients' conditions, with a focused expression, I couldn't help but show appreciation. It's just that the face is too much like the Heavenly Monarch, so I have an illusion when I look at it.

He gave me a smile from the side, and I was busy staggering my gaze, like a child who had been caught doing something bad, and my face must have been red at this moment, like a flowing glow on the edge of the sky.

After checking on the patient's condition, Wen Liangshu took me to a nearby grove to dig herbs. He had left the tools for digging herbs at the entrance of the woods in advance, and he was familiar with the way, carrying a bamboo basket and a medicine hoe, and entered the forest.

I followed him and watched him grope around the ground, searching all the way, and wondered, "What are you looking for?" ”

"Find a herb, find it!" He shouted excitedly, and ran to a bamboo not far away. At the foot of the bamboo, there was an herb with white fluff on its leaves, and he used a hoe to dig up the herb by the roots. He said to me: "It's this kind of life-saving grass, but unfortunately there are too few, and there are so many cholera patients, alas! ”

Looking at Wen Liangshu's somewhat pedantic face, I always felt a little funny, and secretly cast a spell between his fingers, and there was an extra piece of that herb at his feet.

Wen Liangshu was shaking his head and regretting, when he suddenly saw a pile of such herbs at his feet, his eyes widened, and he said in disbelief: "Oh my God! It's amazing. How could so many herbs grow at once? ”

Wen Liangshu's gaze was fixed on me. Said: "It's you, right?" Girl, you really have strange arts, you changed these herbs, right? ”

Well, say you're pedantic. You're incredibly smart.

I said, "It's God who thinks you're kind." and for you. Dr. Wen! ”

"Really? Are you telling the truth? Girl, these herbs were not changed by you, but by God? "He looked innocent. I believed my words.

Well, just thought you were smart, and you got stupid again.

I rolled my eyes and said, "It doesn't matter who changes it, if you have the herbs, you can save people, Doctor Wen." ”

"Isn't it? Let's dig up this herb and boil it! ”

Gentle and cheerful.

**************************

Sitting on the riverbank, I watched Wen Liangshu with a fan and fan the fire that was already burning under the medicine jar, he still had the same focused expression, and beads of sweat kept falling from his cheeks.

I looked at that face and unconsciously compared him with Tianjun, such a gentle book is much more down-to-earth than Tianjun, I don't know how Tianjun will feel when he sees himself doing such rough work and smoky fire?

"Why did you cover my face with a silk handkerchief, but you yourself didn't cover your face, aren't you afraid of being infected? Or will the doctor himself be immune to cholera? I asked him with a tilt of my head.

Wen Liangshu raised his eyes that were red by the fire, glanced at me very hurtfully, and said, "Because there is only one silk handkerchief!" ”

It dawned on me that I was moved by something. While he was focused on fanning the flames, I secretly cast a spell against the pot, casting many cholera-suppressing spells into the pot.

After a few days in the western suburbs, the patients' condition gradually improved. Everyone was discussing the matter of returning to the city again. However, the lord of the city had an order first, and although they defeated cholera, it became a big problem to return to the city.

Wen Liangshu said: "Otherwise, I will go to the city lord to ask for guilt, and tell him that everyone's condition has improved, and everyone can return to the city." ”

"Can you get into the city? Can you see the lord of the city? I asked him.

Wen Liangshu said suddenly: "I can't enter, even if I enter the city, I have never seen the face of the city lord, I know where his mansion is, but I may not be able to see him, otherwise, I kneel at the city gate, I can always attract the attention of the city lord." ”

"It's true that you'll first get the attention of the soldiers defending the city, and then punch and kick you!"

Wen Liangshu stared at my face for a while, shook my hand and said, "Girl, you have a strange skill, you can help us." ”

I can't think of anyone else who can help them but me.

************************

Wen Liangshu insisted on sending me to a place not far from the city gate, standing under a big tree, he was very worried: "Girl, Xiaosheng is selfish again, let the girl be alone in danger, will it make the girl suffer any accidents?" ”

I reached out and patted him on the shoulder and said, "Don't worry, didn't you say that I have a magic skill?" ”

I have already made up my mind in my heart, to deal with mortals, I am also a fairy daughter, and there is a way. Wouldn't it be all I need to do with the lord of the city, and give the next order for the soldiers defending the city to welcome Wen Liangshu and the people into the city again? It's not a problem for me at all.

"Yes! The girl is a strange woman. Wen Liangshu smiled uneasily.

"Please call me vanilla."

Wen Liangshu arched his hand and said, "Yes, Vanilla girl." ”

I was about to say goodbye to Wen Liangshu, but Wen Liangshu suddenly exclaimed, his eyes fixed on the tall green tree beside him.

"What's wrong?" I asked curiously.

"I ...... I saw a big python climb up the tree and disappeared. Wen Liangshu was shocked.

I stared at the tree for a long time. The trunk of the big tree is thick and the leaves are abundant, and there is no big python as Wen Liangshu says.

"I didn't see it!"

Wen Liangshu's face was even more ugly, "The girl didn't see it." I saw it, and it seems that I am about to have a big disaster. ”

I couldn't help but laugh, "Why are you so superstitious as a young man?" Didn't you just see a python climbing a tree? What's the big deal? Don't get cranky. ”

I kindly comforted Wen Liangshu, but Wen Liangshu stopped talking, just frowned, looking preoccupied.

I ignored him and walked straight to the gate. When I pretend to be the lord of the city and welcome him and the people who have suffered from cholera back to the city from the western suburbs, he won't be so cranky, right?

**************************

The operation went smoothly without any surprises. The lord of the city welcomed back the people of the western suburbs.

Stand on the street market in the city of Governor. The people said goodbye to Wen Liangshu, but Wen Liangshu was sullen.

I patted him on the shoulder and smiled, "You won't, will you?" Are you really so suspicious because you saw the snake climbing a tree? ”

Wen Liangshu shook his head, his expression was very sad: "Vanilla girl." You don't understand. I have a hunch of my own. Something bad is about to befall me. ”

Wen Liangshu said and turned around and walked away. Seeing his white-clothed back in the background of the bustling market of Beidu, I couldn't bear it, and caught up with him and said, "Young Master Wen." Can you take me in for a while? "Actually, I just wanted to protect him for a while, and I wanted to see if his premonition was accurate, and to see what bad things would happen to him.

Wen Liangshu stopped, but said: "Vanilla girl, it's not that Xiaosheng doesn't take you in, but because Xiaosheng is about to have a disaster, and he doesn't want to drag the girl down!" ”

"But I'm not familiar with the people in Beidu City, so you should take me in for a while as a good deed!" I stubbornly said.

Wen Liangshu pointed to the inn next to the road and said, "Vanilla girl wants to settle down in Beidu City, and she can stay at the inn." ”

"But I don't have any money, and you owe me a favor, I have helped you so much, you have to repay me, so let me go to your house for a while." I feel like I'm a bit of a scoundrel.

Wen Liangshu thought for a while, took out a few pieces of broken silver from his sleeve and handed them to me: "That's all there is to it, Vanilla girl go to the guest house!" He hurried away without looking back.

"Hey!" I looked at his back and was helpless.

Where can I let the gentle book path go away? I quietly followed him all the way to an old wooden house, which sat next to a lake full of lotus flowers, and the plaque of the wooden house read "Wen's Thatched Cottage" in four large characters with the fragrance of ink.

Oh, so he lives here.

I knocked on the door of a wooden house adjacent to Wen's Thatched Cottage, and the old couple who came to open it looked at me suspiciously. I conjured up a gold ingot in my hand and handed it to them, "Sell me your house!" ”

The second elder looked at the golden ingot and couldn't close his mouth happily, and agreed in one bite. When even packing up and moving out of the cabin. I stood in front of the wooden house and looked at the dilapidated house, and in desperation, I cast a spell to make the wooden house look new and exquisite. On the eaves, I hung a plaque of "Herb House".

After entering the house, he cast another spell, and finally made the wooden house comfortable and not annoying.

I made dinner, ate it beautifully, and then went to bed and slept soundly. I'll be a neighbor with Wen Liangshu with peace of mind, and I'll see what catastrophe can happen to this superstitious scholar.

In the second half of the night, I was woken up by the sound of the flute, which was melodious and clear, and I got up and followed the sound of the flute to the backyard.

The backyard of Vanilla House turned out to be a flower garden, planted with many pots and pots of flowers and plants, in the clear moonlight, the fragrance of various flowers intertwined, forming a special fragrance, very refreshing.

Smelling the flowers and listening to the flute, my whole body came to my senses. Stepping on the bricks beside the flowerbed and looking over the low wall, I saw Wen Liangshu, dressed in white, playing the flute under the moon.

In the moonlight, he played the flute intently, his figure was a little lonely, and his expression was a little lonely.

My heart was full of doubts: this scholar did not sleep in the middle of the night, but he played the flute to death, and he was not afraid of waking up his neighbors. Then I thought, Wen's Thatched Cottage is far away from the market, and only the old couple is the neighbor, but the old couple has moved away, and I am the only neighbor left. The sound of his flute could not disturb anyone except me.

Since it woke me up, I listened to the flute intently.

The flute of the gentle book is in line with Ai Ai's, and his pedantic spirit is also in common.

I was listening a little intoxicated, when I suddenly saw the window on the second floor of Wen Liang's house open, and a young young student with sleepy eyes stuck his head out of the window, and shouted angrily: "Brother, you play the flute in the middle of the night, are you sick?" ”

The flute stopped abruptly. (To be continued......)
