Thinking about it, suddenly a picture appeared in the mind of the commander of the Ming Tong Guanwei, that is, the mysterious old man who appeared in the fourteenth year of Ming Chongzhen seemed to be called Wu Youke? Could it be the same person? And at that time, Wu Youke not only cured the epidemic, but was also praised on the spot by the political envoy of Shaanxi Province in the Ming Dynasty and gave him a heavy reward, but this person has always rejected the reward of the government in a low-key manner and continued to travel to the rivers and lakes to practice medicine, but he didn't expect that after three years, he would appear in Tongguanwei again? Therefore, the commander of the Mingtong Guan Guard wanted to meet this person to see if it was him?

On the other side, Wu Junzhen and his entourage rode horses from the official road to the territory of Xixian County, looking at the beautiful Central Plains (one of the five mountains of Xiyue Huashan), Wu Junzhen sighed: "It is worthy of Huashan, it is really majestic!" Look at the mountains on both sides of the river and the trees on the cliffs, which is a perfect match! The bend has a degree, and it is really a treasure land for literati and scholars. ”

Lang Zhong, the military doctor behind him, said, "Mr. Wu Qian, it is a blessing to be able to come to this mountain to collect medicine!" I heard that Wuyue is a spiritual mountain, and ordinary people standing on the top of the mountain seem to have the experience of being able to see through the clouds and mist, and there are immortals? Wu Junzhen sounded a little curious, although he didn't believe in these things, but he also wanted to try it himself.

After everyone dismounted, they took thirty steps and tied their horses to the tree, and then began to walk along the mountain road to prepare for the mountain, when they walked in a military doctor next to them and suddenly saw something shining in the grass? He slowly walked over and was about to reach out to take it, but Wu Junzhen, who reacted, saw him doing this and hurriedly shouted, "Be careful!" "As soon as I finished speaking, I saw the military doctor Lang Zhong fall to the ground?

I saw that the military doctor was bitten by a (flashing scale snake)! In an instant, the pain was unbearable and he kept shouting, another military doctor Lang Zhong hurriedly ran over to treat him, Wu Junzhen asked the Ming soldiers to raise their guns and prepare to shoot, but was stopped by the military doctor Lang Zhong and said, "Slow!" Mr. Qian, you can't shoot this rare species? This snake can be used as a medicine primer, and it must not be shot! ”

At this time, the soldiers picked up the fire and smashed it at the flash scale snake, killed the snake and put it in the back basket, and after the inspection of the military doctor Lang Zhong, it was found that the snake was not poisonous, but because it was a wild fang, it was a little sharp, and the military doctor Lang Zhong got up and continued to walk after holding the wound.

After a while, I walked to the side of the road up the mountain, from a distance, Huashan is very high and relatively steep, and there are many trees, compared to most of the trees on the official road along the Tongguanwei are dead with withering! Only this mountain is still overgrown with trees, and there is no wilting at all, Wu Junzhen feels that this mountain is worthy of being an immortal mountain with aura?

Then everyone began to walk up the slope with more stones, Wu Junzhen was not used to walking on the mountain road, so he picked up a stick and propped it up, and the soldiers walked with great difficulty for about a cup of tea before crossing the slope to reach the curved path halfway up the mountainside.

At this time, it happened to be noon, the sun was relatively hot, everyone was out of breath, Wu Junzhen, who was walking in front of the military doctor, looked back and saw that the soldiers couldn't walk, so he ordered to rest and wait for the advance, the military doctor Langzhong hurriedly put down the back basket and sat down, and the military doctor Langzhong, who was injured in his left foot and was bitten by a snake, went to make it easier.

But he didn't expect that when it was convenient, he saw that there were a lot of flowers and plants in the grass on both sides, some of which he had never even seen, and he looked around and found that there were many brightly colored flowers in front of him, and purple flowers appeared on the branches, which did not look like ordinary flowers.

The military doctor immediately shouted, "Master Qian, let the soldiers mow the grass quickly, I want to see if the flowers over there are the medicine we want to collect?" Hearing this, the soldiers drew their sabers and walked to cut the grass, and the sitting military doctor Lang Zhong also got up and came over to inspect it.

The military doctor Lang Zhong followed behind the soldier and collected a flower, picked it up and smelled it, and sure enough, there was a faint smell of herbs, Wu Junzhen walked over and asked, "Doctor, this is the medicinal herb we are looking for?" The doctor replied, "This is probably the 'skullcap' medicinal herb we are going to collect?" Wu Junzhen was so happy that he asked people to clean up the surrounding weeds on a large scale.

After putting the skullcap into the soldiers' baskets and continuing to walk, after the winding mountain road to a flat and open place, Wu Junzhen's ears were very sharp, and he heard the sound of water in the distance, and he saw that the soldiers were already thirsty, so he shouted, "Look at a waterfall in front of you?" ”

As soon as the soldiers heard that there was a waterfall, they quickly ran over and rushed over to drink water, and the military doctors also walked over slowly, squatted down and picked up a stream of spring water to drink, the taste was very sweet, just as Wu Junzhen came over to drink water, but found that there was a grass that looked like nightshade not far from the waterfall?

Driven by curiosity, Wu Junzhen took a closer look and felt that it didn't look like night primrose? Then he asked Lang Zhong, the military doctor behind him, "Lang Zhong, look, what kind of grass is that?" The military doctors got up and walked over to take a look at Daxi and said, "Mr. Qian, that's Magnolia grass!" I'll pick it up. "Wu Junzhen listened to Magnolia? He felt a little familiar, so he took out the previous prescription and looked at it.

However, the military doctors were even more active than Wu Junzhen, and directly took out the patterns drawn with reference to the prescription from their chests for comparison, and sure enough, they were looking for the medicinal materials, so they collected all the magnolia grass in this area and put them in the back basket.

Then Wu Junzhen ordered the soldiers to fill the water bag with water and continue to look for medicinal herbs, when they walked to the other side of the mountainside, they found that a large number of ringworm plants appeared in front of them, and the people who were marching tightly were tightly entangled, and the angry Wu Junzhen (Zheng) pulled out his saber and slashed these plants left and right, he led the soldiers to cut out all the way in front, but unexpectedly came to the slope, because Wu Junzhen accidentally stepped on the air and rolled down the hillside, the Ming soldiers behind him saw Wu Junzhen roll down, they were very surprised! I didn't want to go back and be scolded by Inspector Sun, so I grabbed the vine from the side and shouted as I walked down, "Mr. Qian, where are you?" "I shouted more than a dozen times but there was no response!

And the military doctors who caught up also shouted a lot and didn't hear any response at all! Everyone had to follow the vines to climb down the hill, and then speaking, the slope was not very steep when looking down from the hillside, and there were a lot of loose dirt and vines spreading to the bottom, so the military doctor Lang Zhong judged that Wu Qian should not have any big problems? At most, it's just unconscious?

Soon everyone came to the bottom of the hillside, and saw that there were a lot of jungle trees and vines in this area, and there was basically no end to it at a glance, it was just like a forest, because there were too many vines, so it was a little dark here, and the military doctors took out the fire folds on their bodies and lit torches to illuminate the surroundings, and when they were about to shout, one of the military doctors saw Wu Junzhen lying on the vines.

The two hurriedly ran over to help Wu Junzhen and ask about the injury? Wu Junzhen, who was in a daze, opened his eyes and shook his head, indicating that he did not hurt the vital point, but he felt that his waist might be twisted and hurt a little!

At this time, another military doctor Lang Zhong said, "Then let's go up first, shall we?" But Wu Junzhen insisted on looking for it, and said, "No! I won't go up first, but the two of you see that there are many trees and vines here, and it is likely that there will be grass nuts? I also asked the two Lang Zhong to look around. ”

Hearing this, the military doctors didn't say anything and agreed, and the soldiers put down the water and food for Wu Junzhen to drink, and followed the military doctors to look for medicinal materials. But listen closely, the voice quickly fades away? The soldier thought it was an auditory hallucination, so he didn't think much about continuing to look down for the medicinal herbs, but after a while, the voice appeared again? And it seems to be very close to them? The soldier who felt that something was wrong immediately became alert, and he calmed down and listened carefully to the sound, only to find that it was the cry of a tiger, in order to prevent it from being bitten by the tiger!

The soldier whispered to the person next to him, "Everyone, be careful, I suspect there is a tiger in front of you?" As soon as the words fell, the tiger quickly screamed as if he was alarmed (whoop ~ woo), which frightened everyone a little frightened! The two military doctors thought about running back behind the soldiers, but when the soldiers saw the military doctors in front of them running away, they also ran along!

Only ten Ming troops quickly loaded and suppressed the fire, at this moment the tiger also realized the breath of the human, it slowly approached this side, and the sensitive it saw from the vines that the human had firearms, so it moved to the flank to prepare to launch a surprise attack, causing the firecrackers who could not see the tiger to be very afraid and their hands kept shaking.

Suddenly, the tiger quickly pounced, choked the throat of a soldier with his claws, and roared loudly, causing the rest of the Ming army to panic in their hearts! Two of the soldiers said, "Let's shoot!" No, otherwise he will be eaten by a tiger! ”

But due to the excessive nervousness of the soldiers, they accidentally pulled the trigger (bang, bang, bang), and a row of buckshot bullets hit the past, but they didn't hit the tiger! Instead, he shot the soldier who was grabbed by the throat on the ground, and after the shot, the smoke was relatively large, and the light here was relatively dark! The soldiers did not have time to reload, so they could only draw their sabers and prepare to fight the tigers.

At this time, the two military doctors thought of climbing the tree, so that they could not only win the tiger's attack, but also accurately see the tiger's position and kill two birds with one stone, and also command the soldiers to kill the tiger. The soldiers who reacted hurriedly raised their knives to the left, and the tiger hiding in the vines with its agile speed once again pounced on the soldiers and knocked down the two soldiers, and took the opportunity to scratch the eyes of one of the soldiers with his claws!

Seeing that the tiger was so cunning, everyone was frightened and retreated, but when the retreating soldiers came to Wu Junzhen, they were reprimanded by him: "Why are you panicking? The soldiers timidly replied, "Lord Qiqi Qian, there are tigers over there!" Wu Junzhen scolded: "The little tiger scared you like this, what kind of system? Two teams were quickly divided, one was responsible for loading ammunition and the other team was responsible for drawing sabers, and quickly prepared for battle. ”
