Lu Xiaoxian then said: "Use borneol, musk, cloves, mint, fine spice and white mustard to grind into medicine, use rice vinegar and egg white to make a paste of powder, apply it directly to the big vertebral acupoint, and then observe the curative effect!" ”

The large vertebral acupoint is the intersection of the Du pulse and the six yang meridians of the human body, from which the yang heat of the six yang meridians merge into the acupoint and go up to the head and neck with the yang energy of the Du pulse, so the large vertebral point can be the yang energy of the governor's body.

Lu Xiaoxian's operation, no need to ask, must have copied the things in the book.

Hua Yunfeng didn't say anything, and went directly to prepare according to Lu Xiaoxian's instructions.

After the medicine was finished, Hua Yunfeng was about to say goodbye, but was stopped by Lu Xiaoxian: "Wait a little longer, when his condition is relieved, I will go with you!" ”

Hua Yunfeng glanced at Lu Xiaoxian and did not speak.

As the saying goes: Illness comes like a mountain, and illness goes like a thread. Even if the efficacy of this medicine is good, it will take a day or two to take effect, so what's the use of being in a hurry?

Half an hour later, Lu Xiaoxian motioned for Hua Yunfeng to go to Lu Wuji's pulse.

Hua Yunfeng cut the pulse again, and Lu Wuji turned out to be a constant pulse, one breath and four solstice, not floating or sinking, the rhythm was even, calm and slow.

It really changed from a virtual pulse to a normal pulse so quickly, Hua Langzhong has been practicing medicine for decades, and he has never encountered such a strange situation.

Although Lu Wuji hasn't woken up yet, there is nothing serious about it.

……

A chubby figure was coming from the front yard to the second courtyard, this person was short, round, fat enough to drip oil, and the stubby neck was fat.

He is Lu Ruoliang's third brother Lu Yuxiao, and the subordinates in the compound call him the third master.

In terms of generation, Lu Yuxiao is Lu Ruoliang's younger brother, but in terms of age, he is younger than Lu Ruoliang's sons.

Lu Yuxiao likes cockfighting and lackeys, but he hates studying the most, and because of this, Lu Ruoliang disciplines him very strictly.

Lu Yuxiao was about to enter the second courtyard from the Hanging Flower Gate, but suddenly heard a voice behind him: "What are you doing sneakily?" ”

He turned around and saw his eldest brother Lu Ruoliang walking in through the gate.

Lu Yuxiao is not afraid of heaven and earth, and the one he is most afraid of is Lu Ruoliang, not because Lu Ruoliang is his eldest brother, nor because Lu Ruoliang is the head of the Lu family.

After the old lady died, the old lady stayed in the back room all day, and no longer asked about big and small things. Lu Yuxiao was brought up by his eldest brother and sister-in-law, as the saying goes, the eldest brother is the father, so he respects Lu Ruoliang very much.

Lu Yuxiao bowed his head: "Big brother, I'll go find nonsense to review homework!" ”

"Humph!" Lu Ruoliang said with a dark face: "Let me ask you, how long has it been since you went to incense A-Niang?" ”

Lu Ruoliang was extremely strict with Lu Yuxiao on the surface, but he loved this young brother very much in his heart.

Before the old lady died, she didn't leave a last word to anyone, but she confessed to Lu Ruoliang alone and asked him to treat Lu Yuxiao well.

Lu Ruoliang is a filial son, and he has always kept in mind his mother's advice over the years.

"Big brother! Yu Xiao knew that he was wrong! Lu Yuxiao said in a panic.

"Let's go! Follow me to the Buddha hall and put incense on A-Niang! ”

With that, Lu Ruoliang walked towards the inside.

Lu Yuxiao didn't dare to slack off, and followed behind Lu Ruoliang with a bitter face.

"Tuk Tuk", in the silence, there was a knock on the door outside the Buddhist hall, and then Lu Ruoliang's cautious voice came: "Father, I am Yu Ting, and Yu Xiao will give A-Niang a pillar of incense!" ”

"Come in!" The old lady's voice was a little cold.

Lu Ruoliang entered the Buddhist hall, groped for the candle on the incense table, and offered incense with Lu Yuxiao in front of Mrs. Lu's spiritual seat, and then kowtowed respectfully three times.

The old lady looked at them coldly and didn't say a word.

Lu Ruoliang got up and instructed Lu Yuxiao: "You go back first, I'll say a few words to my father!" ”

Lu Yuxiao said goodbye to the old lady and escaped from the Buddha hall as if flying.

Lu Ruoliang stood in front of the old lady, thinking about how to speak.

has been the head of the family for so many years, but for some reason, whenever he faces the old lady alone, Lu Ruoliang always feels an inexplicable restraint, like a child who has made a mistake.

"Father, the child has something to ask for!" Lu Ruoliang finally spoke.

The old lady said lightly: "You brought Yuxiao to incense your mother, just to take this opportunity to ask about how to deal with Lu Gongzi, right?" ”

Lu Ruoliang was stunned!

Why is it that as soon as I open my mouth, my father can guess his thoughts?

He recites sutras in the Buddhist hall all day, how did he know this?

Lu Ruoliang suddenly understood why he was restrained in front of his father: whether his father was the head of the family or not, in his mind, he existed like a god. No matter how old he is, he will always rely on his father, and when he sees him, he is like a child who has not grown up. Nominally, he is the head of the family, but the real backbone of the Lu family has always been his father who is hidden in the Buddhist hall.

The old lady said lightly: "He is a member of the Lu family, and he is a friend rather than an enemy, so why should he think about how to deal with it?" ”

"Friend or foe?" Lu Ruoliang was stunned, "Is he trying to seek the position of the head of the Lu family?" ”

The old lady looked at Lu Ruohao for a while, sighed and said, "If he really wants to be the head of the Lu family, will you fulfill the contract?" ”

Lu Ruoliang was silent.

Benevolence, righteousness, etiquette, wisdom and faith are the foundation of the Shi family, and "a promise of a thousand gold" is a must, but this is a major event related to the future of the Lu family, how can Lu Ruoliang not be entangled.

"Lu Gongzi is not very human, it's not something you can deal with, you just have to be your family master!" The old lady glanced at Lu Ruoliang, "I just want to remind you, don't be reckless in everything, think twice, the success or failure of the Lu family is all in your thoughts!" ”

Lu Ruoliang wanted to say something, but was stopped by the old lady waving his hand: "Okay, go ahead, I'm a little tired!" ”

Lu Ruoliang had no choice but to say goodbye to the old lady.

Out of the Buddha Hall, Lu Ruoliang turned his head and stared at the door of the Buddha Hall, his gaze seemed to be able to penetrate the door. I wanted to get an idea from my father so that I could be more relaxed, but I didn't expect my father's words to make his mood even heavier.

The title of the head of the Lu family looks extremely beautiful to outsiders, but only Lu Ruoliang himself knows that it is extremely heavy, like a mountain pressing on his shoulders.

Over the years of being the head of the family, Lu Ruoliang has carried this mountain and staggered all the way. He was really tired, but he couldn't stop or breathe, he didn't know how long he could hold out or how far he could go.

However, just giving up the position of the head of the Lu family to others, he was somewhat unwilling in his heart.

After a long time, Lu Ruoliang shook his head and turned around and slowly left, and the bright moonlight sprinkled down, leaving a cold shadow at his feet.

……

Lu Xiaoxian stretched his waist, and when he went out with Lu Xiaoyi and Zhang Meng, he saw Lu Zhutou from the Assassin's Mansion also walking down the steps of the yamen.

At this time of the day, Lu Zhutou would walk out of the yamen as usual, go east along Guanzheng Street, go to the end of the street, and then go south, until he had inspected the entire 26 squares of the 6th Street and 10th Lane of Youzhou City, and then he would return to the Yamen for breakfast.

This habit is as punctual as an hourglass, rain or shine, and thunder cannot be moved.

"Lu catches the head! Good morning! Lu Xiaoxian took the initiative to greet Lu Zhutou.

Lu Zhutou didn't speak, only nodded to Lu Xiaoxian in response, and continued to walk forward with his hands behind his back.

When he was in Luoyang, Lu Xiaoxian dealt with Leng Qing, Lu Zhutou is very similar to Leng Qing, it seems that all the people in the world who are headhunters are this kind of virtue: they are particularly vigilant about the things around them, and their faces are full of the words "idlers do not disturb", they are very sensitive to the dangers around them, and they can enter a state of defense at any time.

Lu Wuji shook his head and walked in the opposite direction on his own. Of course he didn't notice that Lu Zhutou, who had already walked a long way, suddenly turned around and stared at his back, thoughtfully.

Guanzheng Street is undoubtedly the largest and most prosperous street in the six streets and ten lanes of Youzhou City, because the Youzhou Thorn History Mansion is located on this street, so it is called Guanzheng Street.

Although Guanzheng Street is prosperous, it is only suitable for opening shops and doing business, and few people live here, let alone directly opposite the Assassin's Mansion.

Opposite the yamen of the Assassin's Mansion, it was originally a jade shop, but now it has become Lu Xiaoxian's residence. Since he took up his post in the Yamen, he has never seen anyone who dares to live opposite the Yamen of the Assassin History.

When things go wrong, there must be demons.

Judging from Lu Zhutou's professional habits, this Lu Xiaoxian is definitely not an idle person.

At this moment, Guanzheng Street is very lively, pedestrians are constant, some are carrying burdens and hurrying away, some are driving ox carts to deliver goods, some are driving donkeys to pull trucks, and some are stopping to watch. With the Thorn Mansion as the center, it extends to the east and west, and the houses on both sides are lined up one after another, there are public houses, inns, tea houses, gambling houses, wine shops, foot shops, butcher shops, etc., and there are many small vendors with big umbrellas in the open spaces on both sides of the street.

The three gambling houses in Youzhou City are all located on Guanzheng Street. The Good Luck Casino is located in the best location on Guanzheng Street, and business is booming.

Good luck gambling house students, not only because of the complete facilities in the gambling house, but more importantly, the price is fair, the service is considerate, the loser borrowed the money from the gambling house, will not rush too tight, the winner often has additional bonuses to eat.

It is said that peers are enemies, when the good luck gambling house opened, robbed the business of the other two gambling houses, the two shopkeepers instructed a few idlers to come to make trouble, and did not gamble money, but when they saw that there were people who came to gamble money, they came forward to make trouble, and broke a lot of tables and chairs.

Later, the shopkeeper Zhao of the Good Luck Gambling House made a move. I don't know what tricks he used, but within a few days, those idlers completely disappeared from Youzhou City, and no one saw them again.

Not only that, but the shopkeepers of the two gambling houses also personally came to the door to kowtow to Zhao's shopkeeper to make amends, which caused an uproar in Youzhou City.

At this time, there are not many people in the Good Luck Casino.

Open a gambling house, the most prosperous time is at night, people who are willing to gamble all night are the real bad gamblers, and opening a gambling house is to make money from these people.

It stands to reason that Shopkeeper Zhao should still be sleeping at this time, but when Lu Wuji walked into the Good Luck Gambling House, he saw Shopkeeper Zhao standing at the door, as if he was waiting for them, no matter who he saw, he was smiling.
