Gongsun Du has already made a decision on the specific way to deal with the rebellion, but it will not be possible to complete it in a day or two.

Next.

Just after breakfast, the housekeeper came to report Hua Tuo's visit.

Gongsun Du was surprised, but he didn't forget to go to greet him, originally when he learned that Hua Tuo was in Liaodong recently, he planned to take time to visit.

There are not many people who can make Gongsun Du respect, but Hua Tuo is definitely one.

"Doctor Huashen!"

When Gongsun Du saw Hua Tuo, a smile appeared on his face, and he greeted him first: "It's been a long time!" ”

Hua Tuo also replied with a smile: "Yes, I haven't seen you for a long time!" ”

The next thing is to reminisce about the past, and then Hua Tuo talked about the meaning.

"Yesterday, the old man was sick for a few people, among whom Mrs. Ling's physique is weak and needs to be recuperated as soon as possible, otherwise this winter will probably be very troublesome."

"Really?"

Gongsun Du was taken aback, and hurriedly said, "Is it serious?" Is there time now? ”

From Gongsun Du left Luoyang to return to Xiangping, nearly two months have passed, and the time has come to early summer. However, when Gongsun Du thought about it in his heart, he understood that Cai Yan must have suffered a bad experience in the past few years when he married into the Wei family, so that his body deviated, and he couldn't help but feel a little more self-blame and hatred for the Wei family.

Hua Tuo stroked his beard with one hand, waved lightly with the other, and said: "Don't worry, adults, there is an old man, as long as you take the medicine on time, three months is enough." ”

"Whew~" Gongsun Du let out a sigh of relief, stood up and bowed.

"There is a miracle doctor!"

Hua Tuo was shocked, he had other ideas when he came this time, how dare he accept this salute, stepped forward to support Gongsun Du, and said: "My lord has tormented the old man, it doesn't have to be like this, it doesn't have to be like this!" ”

Under Hua Tuo's repeated insistence, Gongsun Du could only give up, but his gratitude was beyond words.

The two sat down again, and Hua Tuo continued: "In addition, only one of the other three is in good health, at most he is a little tired, and the other two are in ...... health."

Hua Tuo shook his head, and there was a lot of embarrassment on his face.

Gongsun Du didn't need to ask carefully, he knew that he was talking about Xi Zhong and Guo Jia. In their original history, both of them were representatives of early death.

"Serious?"

"Huh?" Hua Tuo was just feeling troubled, but when he heard this, he was startled and exclaimed, "How do you know? ”

Immediately, he understood, and Gongsun Du must have seen their problem, and he couldn't help but feel relieved.

Gongsun Du ignored these and just asked, "I don't know if I can cure them with the medical skills of the divine doctor?" No matter what herbs are needed, as long as there is something, let the divine doctor take it. ”

"No, no, no!"

Hua Tuo hurriedly waved his hand and said: "My lord filtered, although the condition is serious, as long as you insist on taking medicine and get rid of the habit of drinking in the future, it will definitely be fine, not to mention living to seventy or eighty, at least it is no problem to die at the end of your life." ”

Drinking?

Gongsun Du frowned, to let one, oh, no, it's two, two drunkards quit drinking, that's just a joke, it's impossible.

Gongsun Du's face changed for a long time, but he still couldn't think of a way to quit drinking, so he could only ask unwillingly: "Is there no other way?" Is it okay not to quit drinking? ”

Hua Tuo was puzzled: "Why? Isn't it good to quit drinking? Don't they want to live longer? ”

Maybe they don't think about it, or they don't think it can be done.

Gongsun Du thought so in his heart, but he didn't say it. Hua Tuo is a miracle doctor, but due to the limitations of the times, his name has not yet reached the level that later generations revered.

Suddenly, a bright light flashed in Gongsun Du's mind, and he suddenly asked impatiently: "Can it be treated in the form of medicinal wine?" ”

"Huh?" Hua Tuo knew that Gongsun Du was also quite accomplished in medicine, and gave him a lot of good advice, so he immediately thought deeply about the feasibility.

The medicinal wine originated from the Yellow Emperor's internal scriptures, and flourished in the medicine ancestor Bian Que.

Hua Tuo naturally knows how to use medicine and wine, but according to past experience, it is not possible, and it has a good effect on some common diseases, such as Xi Zhong and Guo Jia, which are incurable diseases, probably have no effect.

When Gongsun Du saw Hua Tuo's refusal, he asked why. Hua Tuo told the truth, and Gongsun Du said: "Could it be because the strength of the wine is not strong enough, and the use of medicinal materials is insufficient?" ”

Hua Tuo pondered for a while when he heard this, and said, "You can try it!" ”

"Although their situation is serious, it will be fine for a while, and besides, there is an old man here, not the old man is talking big, if Lord Yama wants to recruit them to serve in the underworld, I'm afraid it will not be so easy."

"Divine Doctor!" Gongsun Du exclaimed, "It's their luck that Xi Zhong and Guo Jia can meet the miracle doctor. ”

"It's heavy, it's heavy!" Hua Tuo hurriedly waved his hand and said, but the smile on his face couldn't be dispersed.

Gongsun Du's eyes rolled, and he felt that Hua Tuo had other intentions here, so his mind moved, and he asked: "The divine doctor has been wandering around the Han for many years, and I don't know what strange things to see, but I am a little curious, why don't you come and hear it?" ”

Speaking of this, Gongsun Du thought that earlier, when he had just recruited Xi Zhong and Guo Jia under his command, he wanted to find Hua Tuo to help the two of them take a look, but at that time, even Qiao Yanglou didn't know where Hua Tuo went, and there was no news for several years.

Now it appeared in Liaodong, which naturally aroused his curiosity.

"In recent years, it can be said that it is difficult to describe!"

Hua Tuo's eyes showed the color of memory, and he slowly spoke after a long time-

"The plague broke out in the state that year......"

"After the plague, the old man wandered around Bingzhou to practice medicine, and later heard that there was a thousand-year-old Tianshan snow lotus in the Western Regions, so he traveled west to the Western Regions......"

"In the following years, I have been practicing medicine in the Western Regions, and I have seen a lot of rare and exotic objects, such as wine, luminous glasses, etc...... It was only some time ago that he returned to the Central Plains. ”

Speaking of this, Hua Tuo's face was a little unsightly: "Xianbei didn't leave for a long time, I didn't expect the war in the Central Plains to start again, and the county guards on all sides didn't know the suffering of the people of Li, so they just blindly looted, resulting in thieves everywhere, and there were no less than 200 bandits encountered by the old man along the way. ”

Gongsun Du could imagine the scene of Hua Tuo encountering bandits alone, and it was precisely because he was just a person that he was not directly killed, so he had a chance to escape. Otherwise, the famous divine doctor Hua Tuo probably couldn't wait for Cao Cao's scourge, and he would die.

"Divine doctor, don't worry, as long as you are in Liaodong, you dare to guarantee that there will not be a bandit." Gongsun Du patted his chest and said proudly.

Hua Tuo nodded quite approvingly: "Liaodong is indeed different from other places. ”

"Of course!"

Gongsun Du smiled smugly: "The reason why a bandit is a bandit is not a good identity after all, no one wants to become a bandit, it is nothing more than a last resort to live." Everyone in Liaodong can eat enough, who wants to be a bandit who doesn't want to be a bandit! ”

Hua Tuo was silent when he heard this, but there was a trace of dissatisfaction in his eyes. Dissatisfaction with the imperial court, such a situation occurs in various places, and the imperial court naturally has an unshirkable responsibility.

Gongsun Du was keenly aware of this, and his heart couldn't help but cheer, because this meant that his judgment was correct.

After thinking about it, Gongsun Du wanted to tell the reason for the outbreak of the plague in Bingzhou, so that Hua Tuo was completely disappointed in the Han court, but he felt that doing so seemed to be a bit like a villain who was telling right and wrong, and he couldn't help but hesitate.

Hua Tuo is an old man, and he noticed Gongsun Du's hesitation at a glance, and said: "If the adults have something to say, as long as the old man can help, he will definitely help." When he said this, Hua Tuo actually had some careful thoughts in his heart, and now he is not young, more than forty people, and he has been wandering in various states and counties of Dahan for many years, and he is gradually getting tired of it.

Gongsun Du still hesitated, but still said: "The divine doctor misunderstood, it's not that he wants the divine doctor to help, it's just that when he said this, he was worried that the divine doctor would misunderstand." ”

"Misunderstanding?" Hua Tuo said in astonishment.

"Yes, misunderstanding."

"Misunderstanding what?"

"The misunderstanding is deliberately smearing the imperial court."

"This ......" Hua Tuo has a big man in his heart, but his curiosity has also been aroused, "Your Excellency might as well come and listen to it." ”

Gongsun Du looked at Hua Tuo and said solemnly: "The divine doctor should know that in the early years, Xianbei invaded the south and seized countless states and counties, but the imperial court was unable to recover it. ”

"This is naturally clear, at the beginning, I thought that adults were also harmed by Xianbei, and I would never see it again. Fortunately, someone later told Lao Yu that the adults still blocked Xianbei steadily in Liaodong, which was really admirable. Speaking of this, Hua Tuo showed respect.

Gongsun Du waved his hand, not careless, and continued: "The imperial court is unable to recover the lost territory, and then I don't know who suggested that it came up with a way to put the plague. ”

"What? The plague was deliberately made by the imperial court? ”

Hua Tuo immediately exploded, and shouted in surprise, causing the soldiers outside the door to think that something was wrong, and they all broke in.

Hua Tuo didn't notice this, just frowned and thought for a while, and after the soldiers went out, he clapped his hands and shouted: "No wonder they treated the old man like that when they were in Huguan, they thought it was strange at the time, but now that I think about it, they are afraid that the old man will go out and talk nonsense and leak this matter." ”

"Well, it's also that they're afraid of death, otherwise I'm afraid that the old man won't even have a chance to test the medicine."

"However, they still have a little conscience, and they didn't unload the mill and kill the donkey."

Hua Tuo paused, his brows furrowed tightly: "Could it be that the news of the Tianshan Snow Lotus was also deliberately released by the imperial court, in order to lead the old decay to the Western Regions?" ”

Gongsun Du was surprised when he heard this, and asked, "Is there anything to say about this?" ”

Hua Tuo still frowned: "The Western Regions are even more dangerous than the Central Plains, not only do they have problems with language communication, but the sand bandits during this period are not worse than the bandits in the Central Plains, and the number is extremely large. If it weren't for the temptation of the thousand-year-old Tianshan Snow Lotus, the old decay would definitely not stay there for long. And most importantly—".

Hua Tuo took a deep breath and said in a deep voice: "After the old man arrived in the Western Regions, he searched for several years, but he did not find the thousand-year-old Tianshan Snow Lotus, and there was almost no news, but the hundred-year-old Tianshan Snow Lotus found one or two, this is still the old man himself climbed the Tianshan Mountain to look for a long time, and then he found it, one is three hundred years old, and the other is only in his early years. ”

Gongsun Du didn't know if this was a coincidence, or if the court did it on purpose. It's a coincidence, isn't it? To say deliberately, it can be said that it doesn't take much effort for the imperial court to send someone to kill Hua Tuo, for example, to send Wang Yue, Hua Tuo can only confer the head, unless no one can be found, but with Hua Tuo's person, this is simply impossible.
