Chapter 81: The Quest (1)
Mo Cheng took this snake gall in order to save people and save his master. Although the mountain does not have a name, it has a mountain owner. Mo Cheng was an orphan who came down to this mountain by accident. The mountain owner didn't have a child of his own, so he accepted Mo Cheng as his own child and raised it. Mo Cheng has been very sensible and obedient since he was a child, but he never called the mountain owner who adopted him his father or father-in-law, he only regarded him as his own master, the owner of this mountain, the mountain owner was helpless, so he called it at will according to his temperament. Now that the mountain master is not only injured but also sick, he needs snake gall bladder medicine, so Mo Cheng went down the mountain to get snake gall. The mountain owner manages this mountain, and there is Mo Cheng as a righteous son, but there are not enough people under him, so he can be regarded as opening up a small world of his own. There are no cherished species or resources on this mountain, so naturally no one will compete for this place, and everyone will obey the statement of the mountain owner.
Xuan Zhuyi: "Huh? Mo Cheng? What do you live on? ”
Mo Cheng: "Some of the people under the mountain lord go to ferry, and some people go to be traders, in short, there are people from all walks of life."
Xuan Zhuyi: "So this is actually your common home, right?"
Mo Cheng: "Well, I have to come back here in the end anyway."
Feng Xunyi: "Huh? What disease did the mountain lord suffer from and need this snake gall? ”
Mo Cheng: "I don't know, but I heard that they needed this snake gall, so I came down to get it."
Mu Jinggong: "Snake gallbladder is the gallbladder that stores bile sweat in the snake's body. All snake gall bladders can be used in medicine, especially the gall of krait, silver krait, cobra, king cobra, five-step snake, and pit viper, which is a valuable raw material for medicine. Snake gallbladder can dispel wind and suppress convulsions, brighten the eyes and benefit the liver, clear heat and detoxify, dissolve phlegm and relieve cough, and can be used to treat wind-heat epilepsy, phlegm-heat convulsions, phlegm-heat cough, whooping cough, eye redness, eye-water, swelling and pain. ”
Mo Cheng: "This ...... This girl is so ...... That's amazing! Looking at age, too...... Like me, he understands...... Know so many things! ”
Mu Zhixi: "This girl is from a medical background, so she naturally understands these things."
Mo Cheng: "Oh~ this...... That's ......."
Everyone followed Mo Cheng to the place where the mountain lord was, and the house on the mountain was very magnificent, but this person was also unusually rare. Mo Cheng led a few people into the interior of the house and came to a very simple room. A white-bearded old man was lying on the bed, and when he saw Mo Cheng coming in, he hurriedly got up, and Mo Cheng also hurried over to help him.
Mo Cheng: "Mountain master, I got the snake gall."
The mountain lord patted Mo Cheng's back lightly and said, "Child, sit down, sit down."
Mo Cheng sat down, and Xuan Zhuyi and a few people also stepped forward. Mo Cheng hurriedly introduced: "Mountain Lord, these are the friends I met at the foot of the mountain, they came from the capital and came here to have fun for a few days."
The mountain lord smiled: "Okay, if you come, you will play for a few more days, and Mocheng will entertain you."
Xuan Zhuyi: "Thank you to the mountain master, the mountain master still takes care of his body first."
Mountain Lord: "It's okay, it's okay, don't worry."
Mu Jinggong stepped forward and said, "Mountain Lord, the junior has roughly learned some medical skills, I wonder if you mind if I come to check your pulse?"
Mountain Lord: "It's okay, it's okay, it's troublesome girl."
Mu Jinggong stepped forward and sat on the edge of the bed to carefully check his pulse, his complexion did not change, and he even smiled a little, Mo Cheng was relieved.
Mu Jinggong: "There's no problem, it's just that some turbid gas is hidden in the body, just clear it." Mo Cheng, take the snake gallbladder into the medicine, and I'll write a prescription for Senior Brother Lao and take it over in a while. ”
Mo Cheng: "Thank you...... Thank you, girl......" After Mo Cheng left, Xuan Zhuyi and the others were also leaving, and the mountain lord suddenly stopped Mu Jinggong.
Mu Jinggong: "Do you have anything else?"
Mountain Lord: "Girl, what Fang just said was for Mo Cheng, right?"
Mu Jinggong hesitated for a moment and said, "What does the mountain lord mean by this?"
Mountain Lord: "You know that Mo Cheng's kid is worried about me, so you don't want to tell him the truth, do you?"
Mu Jinggong: "You don't have to worry too much, you will be able to take the medicine according to the prescription."
Mountain Lord: "I'm old, and I know that my body and bones are getting worse every year." The people on this mountain are not prosperous, but they are all affectionate and righteous people, and they are all helping me hide from Mo Cheng. Today, I originally thought that after I used snake gall to get him out, when I came back, I would have to explain some things to him, but I didn't expect him to meet you at the bottom of the mountain, and I couldn't say this. ”
Mu Jinggong: "I just checked your pulse and found that it was the new injury that caused the old disease, and your old disease also felt no different from the new injury."
Mountain Lord: "At a young age, this medical skill can be said to be proficient."
Mu Jinggong: "What do you want Mo Cheng to know?"
Mountain Lord: "When I brought him back, I rescued him from the mouth of the python."
Mu Jinggong: "You injured that giant python back then?"
Mountain Lord: "It's not a big deal, probably because the venom has entered the body, and it will be uncomfortable for two or three days before it will be fine, and then I won't think about these things anymore." It was because he was still young, and he couldn't remember these things, but he only knew that I took him in, but he didn't know about the python. ”
Mu Jinggong: "Then what happened recently?"
Mountain Lord: "Recently, Mo Cheng went up to the other side of the mountain to collect medicine, and he encountered that strange thing again. The thing followed him silently from behind, and I led it to the other side and took it again. But fortunately, in the end, someone came to kill the giant python together, and my body was not good again. Thinking about it, I'm still old, isn't it okay when I'm young? ”
Mu Jinggong: "Mo Cheng is completely ignorant of these two things, don't you plan to tell him?"
Mountain Lord: "Some things are done just by doing, why do you need to leave a name?" I cherish this child, and I am willing to give up my old life for him, not to ask him to remember me well for the rest of his life. I know this child, if he knows that new and old injuries are caused by him, he is afraid that he will not be able to live the second half of his life. Since I have protected him, I hope that he can live a safe and happy life, instead of living in regret for the rest of his life. ”
Mu Jinggong: "But he ...... But I have been calling you the lord of the mountain. ”
The mountain lord smiled: "That is his choice, and it is also his choice what path to take in the future." It's just a title, but I still think of him as my son. ”
Mu Jinggong sighed and said, "I know, I won't tell him about this."
Mountain Lord: "You are all good boys, you can help me hide from Mo Cheng, I thank you here in advance."
Mu Jinggong: "You really don't have to be like this, but you can't hide it for a while." If he knew it in the future, he didn't know what kind of state of mind it would be. ”
Mountain Lord: "No one can say what will happen in the future, let's take one step at a time." People, you still have to live in the moment, don't you? Girl, I'm holding my breath to survive until now, can you help me call him over? ”
Mu Jinggong: "Don't worry, I'll go and call him."
Mountain Lord: "There's Miss Lao."
Mu Jinggong went out for a moment and found Mo Cheng. After Mo Cheng entered, Xuan Zhuyi and a few people told Mu Jinggong that we had heard the conversation between the mountain master and Mu Jinggong, and even Mo Cheng heard it outside the door. Mu Jinggong looked at Mu Zhixi blankly for a moment, and Mu Zhixi comforted her: "Although he knows, he won't say it in front of the mountain lord." Like the mountain lord, he thinks about each other, and he doesn't want the mountain lord to leave with the heart of not keeping a good secret and worrying about his thoughts from time to time. The mountain owner has worked a lot for him in this life, and he also wants the mountain owner to go safely. ”
Shang Ling sighed and said, "There are always so many separations of life and death in this world, which is really head-catching."
As he was talking, Mo Cheng came out of it and called Xuan Zhuyi and a few people in. A few people followed up in confusion, but saw that the mountain lord's complexion had deteriorated to the extreme compared to the beginning. The mountain lord looked at the people standing together, and suddenly stretched out his hand and pointed to Shang Ling who was standing at the back. Shang Ling looked at the mountain lord with a surprised expression, but he still stepped forward. The mountain lord looked at Shang Ling carefully, and suddenly asked with difficulty, "What's your name?"
Shang Ling said in a daze: "Shang Ling."
The mountain lord breathed a sigh of relief, paused and said, "Child, you must go find two people."
Shang Ling: "Who do you want me to find?"
Mountain Lord: "Hai Linfeng and An Chuyun."
Shang Ling looked puzzled and said, "Who are these two?" Why should I go to them? Where do I go to find them? ”
Mountain Lord: "There are some things that you need to find by yourself, and these two people are the same, if you find them, you will naturally understand."
"But I ......" Shang Ling wanted to say something, but was pulled back by Yu Cihe. Mo Cheng stayed next to the mountain lord, and after the mountain lord told you and Mo Cheng on his deathbed, he heard Mo Cheng shout weakly when he was about to close his eyes: "Father." Then he closed his eyes with a smile on his face and a happy face.
When an elder dies, he should be filial piety for three years. When the owner of the mountain died, the people of the whole mountain had to wear linen and filial piety, and Mo Cheng was even more so. Xuan Zhuyi and a few people stayed on this mountain for a few more days, and only after the funeral was almost arranged did they want to leave. In the event of a funeral at home, Mo Cheng was not good at keeping others as guests, so he had to send them away in person. When everyone left, it was March 15, it was getting dark before going down the mountain into the cave, thinking about Yu Ci He, who was about to recur his old wound, and after passing through the cave entrance, Shang Ling looked for Yu Ci He and wanted to carry her to rest, but found that Yu Ci He suddenly disappeared. Everyone had to go back to the mountains to look for Yu Cihyuk, but they didn't want to meet Mo Cheng, who had not gone far, and several people searched in the mountains with fire, but they couldn't find a trace. Just as she was about to leave, Ouyang Ruolin accidentally triggered the water realm that would only appear on the fifteenth day of the month, and everyone pulled each other into the water realm in a daze, entering a new and ordinary world.
