Chapter 366: Patrolling the Mountains Late at Night
The kidnapper Xue immediately informed Xue Congliang of this matter. After Xue Congliang got the news, he was also very anxious. This matter is related to the development plan of the Five Elements Sanatorium and the Fulongshan Traditional Chinese Medicine Hospital.
If the Chinese herbal medicine in Fulong Mountain is emptied, what else is Fulong Mountain famous for?
The kidnapper Xue told Xue Congliang about the plan for this matter, although Xue Congliang is busy with work now, but this matter is a matter of life and death. Xue Congliang immediately agreed to participate in the operation.
The purpose of the kidnapper Xue's action is actually to arrest people.
This operation is strictly secret, because it is not yet known whether the person who stole the herb is an insider or an outsider.
After dinner in the evening. The Chinese Medicine Hospital and the Five Elements Sanatorium are all closed. Xue Congliang and the kidnapper Xue gathered a few people, all of whom were young and strong young men.
Xue Congliang and the kidnapper Xue did not tell them what they asked to do at night, but said that they would go to the mountain to patrol the mountain. Seven or eight people, lined up, walked up the hill.
Now in Fulong Mountain, there is no movement like before, and at night, there are already people who dare to come out to move. At night, Xue Congliang saw people carrying bamboo baskets on their backs, picking wild fruits on the island, some people walking on the mountain, and some people staying on the mountain at night, saying that they were absorbing the essence of the world of Fulong Mountain.
Xue Congliang was at the back of the Five Elements Sanatorium, and saw someone build a small shed, it turned out that an old man wanted to maintain his body, but he couldn't afford to live in the Five Elements Sanatorium, so he learned from Xue Congliang's example and built a small shed nearby and lived in it. However, this place is too simple, hot during the day and cool at night, coupled with the lack of traditional Chinese medicine, the old man's body is not well maintained.
"Old man. Your body is not good, you can't live here at night, the cold here is too heavy at night. Your body won't be able to take it. Xue persuaded the old man with good intentions.
"What? My ears can't hear, you can't hear, you make a loud noise. The old man's voice was like thunder, almost shaking out the rats in the nearby burrows.
"I said, old man, it's too cold in here. Go and live in my sanatorium. Xue Congliang said.
"I don't have any money, I can't afford to live in a nursing home, I'm old, let me die here slowly." The old man said unceremoniously.
"Old man, what are you talking about? We are not a public hospital here. You don't have any money, so we're here. You don't have any money. I won't take your money! Xue Congliang said.
"Really, you don't take my money?" The old man didn't believe his ears a little.
"Well, you can live in for free, and we'll treat you for free. When your body recovers, you can be discharged from the hospital. Xue Congliang said and wrote a note to the old man. Four words were written on it: "Reception of one person", "Old man, you take this note and go to the nursing home." They'll admit you to the hospital. ”
The old man took the note given by Xue Congliang, and held it in his hand as if he had obtained a treasure, as if holding a treasure: "Thank you, Doctor Xue, you are really good, you are really our living bodhisattva." The old man said with emotion.
"Old man, you have won the award, I just did my best, don't be polite." Xue Congliang said that being able to help this old man, Xue Congliang's heart also swelled with a sense of pride.
"However, people nowadays are all snobs, and when they see others making money, they are red-eyed, you have to be careful, this herb in Fulong Mountain, I'm afraid it can't be saved." The old man said such a sentence coldly, which shocked Xue Cong's conscience.
"Old man, what do you mean by saying that?" Xue Congliang said in wonder.
"Doctor Xue, you are a good doctor, and I can't help but repay your great kindness. During this time, I lived in the mountains, and when I got up in the middle of the night to pee, I suddenly found that someone was stealing herbs in the mountains. My old man, although his ears are not good, but his heart is bright and his eyes are bright. I sneaked over and saw people digging in the mountains with sickles, shovels, and shovels. There were quite a few of them, at least twenty or so......" The old man said this, stopped, and then pointed to the knots not far away, meaning that he had found these people there.
"I wanted to stop them, but those people looked very savage. I'm an old man, single and weak, and I was killed here, and no one found out, so it's better to be nosy. Now that you have come up the mountain, and you have passed through here, I will tell you about the situation here, so that you may know what it is. The old man gasped.
Xue Congliang listened to the old man's narration and found at least three problems, the first problem, that someone stole herbs, was absolutely true. The second question, the large number of these people, it seems that it is not the behavior of a few people, but perhaps someone behind it. The third question, the time of these people's activities, is probably in the second half of the night.
"Thank you, old man. I've heard what you're saying, and I'll take care of it, so don't worry. Looking at the old man, after packing up the simple bedding, he walked towards Xue Congliang's Fulongshan Sanatorium.
Xue Congliang looked at his somewhat staggering back and sighed a lot. He thought that maybe one day, Xue Congliang would be taken to a sanatorium to recuperate, and that would be a wonderful thing. At that time, Xue Zhuang will truly realize that the old man will be supported.
After sending the old man away, Xue Congliang glanced at the abductor Xue, and the two of them already understood a lot. It seems that their plan of action needs to be adjusted a little bit.
Their manpower was eight people, while the other party was more than 20 people, outnumbered, obviously not having the upper hand, and the other party was acting in the second half of the night. It's the middle of the night, and apparently there are still hours of waiting.
Xue Congliang arranged all the things he carried with him and arranged them on the ground nearby. Some things are arranged in the grass of Chinese herbs.
After everything was arranged, Xue Congliang breathed a sigh of relief. The most important thing now is to rest, Xue Congliang arranged to rest on the spot, in the place where the old man rested, although this place is simple, it is relatively safe for simple rest.
When everyone rested, the abductors Xue and Xue Congliang couldn't sleep.
This is the first time Xue Congliang has rested here in a long time. Staying overnight in the mountains sounds a little scary, but it is full of taste.
Looking through the trees, look at the deep blue sky, which is dotted with stars. Everything around is magical. Xue Congliang was so fascinated by all of them, he seemed to be full of primordial curiosity about the vast starry sky. If there are other lives in this world, can Xue Congliang's Five Elements Medical Technique also treat these lives? Looking at all this, Xue Congliang couldn't help laughing.
It's a bit crazy.
And the kidnapper Xue was listening to all the movements around him. That's how he does things. When something blows, his eyes are like the eyes of an owl in the night, and he quickly purr through the grass to look into the distance. No one could have imagined that there were still seven or eight strong men lying in this place.
But most of these movements are the sound of the wind and grass, at most the sound of mice on the mountain, burrowing in the grass. Although the abductor Xue is older and sleeps less, he still can't stop the thick sleepiness. Bursts of sleepiness, like waves of waves, kept coming up. The kidnapper Xue had already yawned.
The others were already snoring. Young people are young people after all, and when they sleep, they are also sweet. Xue Congliang doesn't have this blessing. To this day, I still can't sleep.
In the second half of the night, the chill came down. The dew began to wet Xue Congliang's clothes. I just feel that a drop of fog is like a string of beads, hanging on my eyelashes. Then, on the eyebrows, on the face, it was all foggy.
However, at this time, there was still no movement from the mountain. Xue Congliang was a little impatient. You know, waiting for someone is the most painful thing. Moreover, waiting for someone in such a place is simply even more torture.
Hope was approaching, and in the distance, a different rustle could be heard...... (To be continued......)
