"Oh!" Qingmin blushed, hurriedly brought a glass of water from the kitchen, and when he handed it to the stone, his eyes only dared to stare at the divine beast staring at the cup.

The stone slowly snorts the light and tasteless white water like a tea.

Qingmin picked up the broom and pretended to be busy, and after waiting long enough, she had to take the initiative to attack again: "You just need to answer me one question, can Uncle Hai's illness be cured?" ”

The stone smiled without saying a word, licking his moist lips, and savored the sweet aftertaste.

"Can Uncle Hai's illness be cured?" Qingmin put down the broom, and his anxious eyes didn't allow the stone to keep silent anymore.

"Don't worry. Qingmin, you can do something for me. ”

"Tell me, what's the matter?"

"You inform the people of Quangu to gather in the open space in front of the Wu family's compound tomorrow, and I will uncover the truth there."

"Collection? The truth? What truth? What if they don't come? Do you think that all the people are as concerned as I am about whether Uncle Hai's illness can be cured? I'm not going. Qingmin was skeptical, but based on her trust in the stone, her denial was not resolute.

Shi smiled slightly, his eyes determined: "You just tell them that this truth is related to the lives of the people of the whole valley." ”

The next morning, the sky was clear and the sun was warm, and the haze of the past few days was swept away. Honesty Valley has been revitalized.

Bees are busy collecting nectar to store food for wintering. Locusts gather on the ridges and use the spikes at the end of their abdomen to make small holes so that they can lay their eggs inside and survive the harsh winter.

The bare trunks are favored by the longhorn beetles, which are a breeding ground for their larvae.

Shi and Qingmin helped Uncle Hai to the door of the Wu family's compound.

And the people of the valley came one after another.

Everyone is talking to each other: "What the hell is going on in our valley?" Why are our lives on the line? I heard that it has something to do with Uncle Hai's madness, and Uncle Hai is really pitiful! He's a good guy, and he's treated me! ”

By the time the sun passed over the top of the mountain, all the people of the valley had arrived.

The Wu family's gate was still closed, as if the disturbances outside were another world for them.

"Qingmin, you go to the courtyard and invite all the people of the Wu family out, remember, don't forget the Miss Wu family and the maid Yulan." Stone said to Qingmin.

"Hmm." Qing Min walked to the door of the Wu family's compound and knocked on the knocker. Soon, the butler came out to answer the door, and the crowd outside the door was obviously adding to his horror.

"Butler, I want to see Master Wu." Qingmin is calm and polite.

After witnessing the crowd, the butler felt that everything should not be placed in broad daylight, and he asked in a low voice, "You came in alone?" ”

"Yes." Qingmin smiled.

"Come on in!" The housekeeper was worried that people from outside would rush in. As soon as Qingmin entered, the butler immediately closed the door, isolating him from the danger of thinking that a door could be left outside.

Master Wu and Mrs. Wu sat in the hall, looking anxious.

When the butler walked in, they stared at him closely, and were surprised to find that the butler, who had been in their house for more than ten years, had squinted his eyes, and his nose was richer than the most mellow wine in their house.

"Master, madam, Qingmin is here!" The butler successfully shifted the old lady's attention to the others.

Qing Min stepped forward and said, "Please ask Master Wu and his family to go to the open space outside the door." ”

"What?" Master Wu picked up a cup of tea and put it to his lips, pretending to be calm.

"Master Wu will find out when he arrives."

"What's the first thing?"

"It has something to do with Uncle Hai's madness."

Master Wu's hand trembled slightly, and the hot tea splashed on his lips. His lips twitched, and he was quickly curled in by his tongue to heal.

He put down the teacup in his hand, and in order to hide his gaffe, he raised his voice: "What does Uncle Hai's madness have to do with me?" Why did you call me to go? ”

"Master Wu will know when he arrives." Qingmin's face does not change color.

Master Wu looked at Mrs. Wu, and Mrs. Wu shook her head.

"I don't have that kind of time. Butler send-off! ”

"Master Wu, the people of the whole valley have gathered outside your house, and if they can't see you, they may break in." Qingmin smiled and understated.

Master Wu snorted. "Butler, what's going on outside the door?"

"Sir, there are people from the valley outside the door, and there are about two hundred people." The butler had palpitations, as if he had just touched the butt of a tiger.

Master Wu lowered his head and pondered, worried that people outside would break into the door, and that he would be surrounded by them outside the door.

He had no way to weigh which one was more dangerous. Whatever situation he faced, he was like a lamb waiting to be slaughtered.

"Master Wu, if you don't do anything wrong, the people won't hurt you. If you ......"

"Let's go out and have a look." Master Wu made a quick decision, and between admitting that he had done something bad and the inevitable danger, he wisely chose the latter.

"Master Wu, please call Miss Wu, she can't be missing." Qingmin said.

It was only at this time that Master Wu showed a panicked look.

"What do you tell her to do?" Mrs. Wu yelled in a voice that could almost tear down the roof, "She never saw anyone!" ”

"Master Wu, Mrs. Wu, she must be present." Qingmin tried to overcome rigidity with softness.

Master Wu's face turned from white to blue, and Mrs. Wu was only one step away from tearing off the Buddhist beads around her neck.

"You deceive people too much!" Master Wu was word-by-word, this was the biggest threat he had encountered in his life.

He is not afraid of the Zhang family, not the Li family, or the Geng family, he is not afraid of any of them.

He was afraid that if they united, those people outside the door could trample their family into pulp.

"Let's go, it's still the same sentence, if you don't feel sorry for the folks, the folks won't be sorry for you either!" Qingmin stopped persuading and issued an ultimatum with a look of majesty that he had never felt before.

Master Wu walked out of the door with the whole family, and also took the luck he had been relying on.

Outside the courtyard, more than 200 eyes looked like more than 200 ropes, and the Wu family stood on the torture platform with "five flowers", waiting for God's gifts and mercy.

"Ladies and gentlemen, I have invited you all here today to uncover the truth." The stone got straight to the point, "Everyone knows that your divine doctor, Uncle Hai, went crazy last month. His madness was not for no reason, but was deliberately inflicted on him. ”

Someone in the crowd frantically waved his fist: "What nonsense! Our people here are simple, how can they be harmful to people? Where did you come from, did you want to sow discord between us? ”

"Who will harm Uncle Hai?"

"You have bad intentions, get out of the Valley of Honesty!"

Qingmin clenched the copper rod: "Don't you believe in stones, don't you believe me?" I've lived in this valley for so long, which family has helped, I haven't helped? Daddy Feng, I helped deliver your cows, right? Or you don't have milk to drink at home right now! ”

Qing Min pointed to the old man who was waving his fist: "Also, the second child of the Qing family, I helped cut your family's rice, right?" Otherwise, your family will run out of food this year. ”

One of the tallest men in the crowd shrank his head.

"Qingmin, we believe in you!"

"Uncle Hai is so good, the person who harmed him will not die well!"

"We must catch the murderer!"

There was a dramatic reversal of the situation on the field.

"Don't worry, listen to me first!" Stone raised his voice, "Uncle Hai's madness is related to the five patients he treated. They are Uncle Wu Gen, Uncle Zhang Bing, Uncle Wang Tie in the east, Qiu'er and Xiaodou in the west. ”

Everyone looked back and forth for the five families, and the people standing beside them seemed to be shrouded in a halo of luck.

All five families had a bad feeling that they would probably be asked to stand with the Wu family as well, so they were eager to bury their heads in the ground and dismiss the discussion around them as a sign of disharmony in nature.

"Uncle Wu, what kind of disease do you have?" Stone asked, turning to one of them.

"Carbuncle." Uncle Wu lowered his head, his ears and neck were red, and his voice was as small as an ant moving.

"Carbuncle!" A person beside Uncle Wu excitedly transmitted a voice that only he could hear.

"What part?"

"On my back." Uncle Wu raised his head and expanded his normal volume. He would not give others another chance to pass on his words, and the "carbuncle" that came from the mouths of others pierced his hair like an awl.

"Did Dr. Hai cure you?" Stone asked.

Wu Gen lowered his head again and did not answer for a long time.

Someone shouted at him: "Wu He, has Uncle Hai cured your illness?" Yes, no, no, no, are you dumb? ”

Wu Gen raised his eyelids and moved them around, countless fingers turning into huge claws in the light and shadow of the sun, and they all wanted to kill him.

"Wu Gen, don't be afraid. You tell the story! An old, loud voice came from the front of the crowd.

Everyone turned their attention to the person who spoke, and this person was the master of the Wu family.

He's very different from what he was just now.

Cowardice, retreat, and decadence are nowhere to be found in him, and he is like a lion who has regained his strength after eating and drinking.

He didn't believe that there was no chance of survival, how could a hairy young man be an opponent after a seasoned general?

"It has not been cured." Wu Gen stared into Master Wu's eyes, where he could see a pillar.

The stone smiled and said, "Okay, I'll ask you again, how is your illness now?" ”

"Healed now." Wu Gen's expression was painful, as if he would rather be infected with a vicious disease.

"How is it healed?"

"Heal on its own."

"When will you be healed?"

"A few days ago...... to be healed. ”

"Hmm." Stone nodded. Everyone didn't know what he meant by this nod, whether they believed what Wu Gen said, or whether they didn't believe what Wu Gen said.

Shi smiled slightly and turned to Zhang Bing: "Now I'll ask Uncle Zhang Bing." Uncle Zhang, what disease do you have? ”

"Typhoid fever." Zhang Bing learned from Wu Gen's experience and calmly answered from the beginning to avoid being ridiculed by others.

"What are the symptoms?"

"Coughing up blood."
