Chapter 19: Childe is sick
Bashan, grass hut.
Jiang Wangshu, Pu Miao and a young man with bundled hair came on foot. Jiang Wangshu's face was not very good, a young female swordsman in the palace died at the hands of the Bashan bandits, and he was wondering whether it was right or wrong for him to condone the Bashan bandits.
A bandit is a bandit after all, a wolf is full of nature, and no matter how tame a wolf is, there are times when he bites. He felt that he favored Jue too much, so he connived at the Bashan bandits, who were inextricably linked to him.
The bitter childhood experience made Jiang Wangshu pay special attention to the people's livelihood, and it was even more obvious when facing children with similar experiences to himself, he could not be afraid to say that Ling Han was treated as a son before the Battle of Jiangcheng, and Ling Han did not live up to his expectations, whether it was Zhai Yu, the successor of the gun or Wan Jun taking the head of Huang Yan from it, he showed outstanding combat power and courage, and as for guarding Yangliu Bridge alone, he had the style of Jiang Hou.
After the first battle in Jiangcheng, Ling Han was suspected of being killed in battle, and later the death of Lanpu Lansu involved Ling Han news, although the result disappointed Jiang Wangshu a little, but it was good to be alive.
Then after meeting Jue several times, he fell in love with this idiot for no reason, so in Emei, he made a promise, on the condition that Pu Miao would make a move.
The price was great, but he was willing to do it. After learning of the death of the young female swordsman in the palace, Jiang Wangshu's state of mind underwent some subtle changes, although he believed that the idiot would not personally or instruct him to do such a hurtful thing, but he couldn't get out of it, after all, the bandit leader Ah Wu respected him.
However, Jiang Wangshu was really curious why the bandit leader Ah Wu was willing to respect an idiot. The identity of the idiot he investigated clearly, so pitiful that he couldn't finish talking about it for three days and three nights, not to mention that he was a young man, an idiot, even a Taoist saint may not be able to maintain a normal heart after experiencing this series of tribulations, and there is a rare and valuable kindness.
There have been three owners of Bashan Cottage, the first is Jiang Wangshu, who once practiced swords barefoot under the moon here; The second is a peach blossom farmer, who has lived in seclusion here for more than ten years; The third is Jue.
Jiang Wangshu didn't find Jue, so he waited patiently. He originally intended to adopt Jue as his stepson, but after Jiang Yuer's death, even if he didn't have a mustard in his heart, I am afraid that he would not want to leave the palace. Jiang Wangshu has a plan in his heart, he will come to the grass house less in the future, and how will the young man see his own creation in the future.
"Jiang Hou, is he a reclusive master?" Pu Miao could not be mediocre in his eyes, he did not look like an ordinary farmer, woodcutter or hunter at a glance.
Jiang Wangshu shook his head, personally lit a fire and asked Pu Miao and the accompanying young man to go to the fire, and then he walked towards Du Ruohu.
The name of Du Ruohu was given by Jiang Wangshu, because he promised that his wife would wait for the day when she was old, find a remote place to live in seclusion, and there was no need for a paradise, just have mountains and rivers.
Jiang Wangshu found a stone and sat down, without saying a word, the idiot was drinking water, just like the scene he encountered when he worshipped the river god.
In addition to the idiot of the water, there is another person, leading a half-sized gray dog with a fierce appearance, Jiang Wangshu didn't recognize it, anyway, it's not Ah Wu who has been following Jue's side.
"You're here." Jue poked his head out and said very calmly.
The solar term is almost snowing, and although it has not snowed yet, the weather is so cold that ducks and geese are reluctant to go into the water.
Jue climbed ashore in stripes, Jiang Wangshu turned around, and waited for him to get dressed.
"Alright." Jue walked forward first, Jiang Wangshu followed, and the last person with the dog was at the end.
"Jue."
Jue heard someone calling him, his voice was full of surprise, he looked up calmly, and found that he didn't know him.
"I'm Qiao Yin, don't you recognize me?" It was the young man who followed Pu Miao who spoke.
Jue has grown from a childish boy with a long horn to a young man with bunched hair over the years, and Jing Qijun, who has had a relationship with each other in the same place as the change in appearance, has not recognized it, but this old Qiao Gongziyin and Jue have lived together for a short period of time, so they can recognize it.
"Qiao Gongziyin?" Jiang Wangshu asked solemnly.
Pu Miao nodded, and afterwards he was entrusted to pick up Qiao Yin, this person was naturally Meng Lan.
Jiang Wangshu remembered that Jue was forced to leave Zongxi because he was mistaken by Song Gongzi Qiaoyu for Qiao Gongziyin, and the two are now reunited here, I don't know if it was a trick of fate or an unintentional move.
Jue Bao smiled apologetically, he probably guessed that Qiao Yin knew him, and he didn't have any impression other than that.
The person leading the greyhound was Qi Guanzhuang, and after he returned to the bandit's den that day, he brought this fierce greyhound, saying that it was a wolf cub caught by Ah Wu.
Qi Guanzhuang's submission to Ah Wu is more of Ah Wu's ruthlessness, and even he has the intention of waiting for Ah Wu to die and then leave this place of right and wrong, after all, killing the official family is not a trivial matter, and the Bashan bandit is afraid that it will be eradicated. However, there were some subtle changes in his state of mind, and he was very curious why Ah Wu, the bandit leader who was as ruthless as the wolf king, was willing to die for this somewhat stupid young man.
Ah Wu can not die, he can escape or escape by the protection of this stupid son who has a bad relationship with Jiang Wangshu, after all, although this son is a little stupid, he can shelter the Bashan bandits without being exterminated by the officials.
Qi Guanzhuang is a trustworthy person, Ah Wu entrusted him with the last hand to hand over the domesticated wolf to Jue, he fulfilled his promise, and when he came to the Bashan Cottage to see five old and one new, a total of six mounds lined up, and then shut up and listened to the story told by the stupid boy for a night, he was a little trance, and even suspected that he was Ah Wu.
Qi Guanzhuang secretly scolded Ah Wu for being despicable, and then followed this son honestly, but I have to say that this stupid boy's cooking of porridge, fish and venison is a must, and even sewed him a deerskin skirt that is not delicate but warm.
When Qi Guanzhuang took the deerskin skirt, he scolded Ah Wu despicable.
"Ah Wu is dead." Qi Guanzhuang tried not to look at Jiang Wangshu's eyes, after all, one is an official and the other is a bandit, the two are in opposing positions, if it weren't for the stupid son in the middle to reconcile his life with Jiang Wangshu, I'm afraid it would be the time of death.
But he had to speak, just as Ah Wu had to die, Ah Wu didn't die Jiang Wangshu's anger would not subside, I was afraid that he would be angry with the stupid boy.
Hearing the news of Ah Wu's death, Jiang Wangshu's mood underwent some subtle changes, and Ah Wu, who followed Jue like a shadow from beginning to end, like a dog, actually died?
Qi Guanzhuang led the little wolf and walked away, he couldn't fit into this circle.
Qiao Yin also walked away, leaving only Jiang Wangshu, Pu Miao and Jue.
"This is the medical saint Pu Miao, passing by here." Jiang Wangshu didn't know how to speak, for fear of touching Jue's soft heart. The experience of hardship in childhood made him use hardship to create a strong appearance for himself, but deep down he was extremely fragile.
"This ...... Childe," Pu Miao paused for a long time before he came up with an inappropriate title, and he said, "Childe is sick. ”
"Sir, do you have a way?" Jue laughed once, very purely.
"I only know after reading it first, I don't dare to say it all," Pu Miao said, "and ask Jiang Hou to wait outside, sorry." ”
Jiang Wangshu nodded, waited for the two of them to enter the house, took the door, and walked away.
Qi Guanzhuang was leading the little wolf to burn paper money in front of the six graves of Ah Da and them, and Jiang Wangshu was standing under the peach tree, he knew that Qi Guanzhuang was a bandit, and the bandit was a bandit, and it would not dissipate in three or two days.
At this time, I'm afraid that Jing Qijun has already begun to suppress the bandits, and it would be good if she could calm her anger, after all, the dead are the greatest.
In addition to Jue's reason, Jiang Wangshu is reluctant to suppress bandits because he has compassion, bandits are also people, who doesn't want men to plough and weave children, frolicking the elderly, and the family is safe, if there is hope in life, who wants to fall into the grass?
Jiang Wangshu has a very bold idea, which was so bold that it was unrealistic in the past - born as a human being, regardless of whether it is high or low, and everyone is equal.
Therefore, when he went on the river, he ate and slept with the people, but he always felt that there was an invisible barrier between him and the people, just like a fisherman and a farmer who always subconsciously spoke softly and did not dare to speak loudly, and even felt uneasy because of his eyes and movements.
In the past, although Jiang Wangshu was said to be the Marquis of Jiang and the ruler, he was high and powerful, after all, he was the first marquis of the opposite sex since the state of the country.
After the Battle of Jiangcheng, the state of Fang was almost destroyed, and all order was reduced to nothing, Jiang Wangshu set out to rebuild order, and he fantasized about establishing a new order in which the people were rich in food and clothing, and the officials were fed as much as they could. It's a pity that all this is just his beautiful idea, the ruler is still the ruler, and the ruled is still the ruled. Except for Qianzhong and Wuling, half of the doctors in the other thirty cities were recommended from the ruled, but after two years, they adapted to their new identities, and even Moths such as Bayang Doctor Jia Renna and others secretly withheld pensions.
Jiang Wangshu has a feeling of being weak and weak, although the entire Fang country respects him, whether it is Ba Mang, Mustard Seed, Jing Qijun or Doctor Thirty Cities all have political opinions contrary to him, and the only one who stands on his side is Yang Xian, the governor of Dai Nanjing.
"Jiang Hou, eat wine." Qi Guanzhuang didn't know when he appeared, he tied the little wolf to the stump far away from the black horse, and said with a bowl of wine.
Jiang Wangshu took the warm wine and pulled Qi Guanzhuang to sit down, I have to say that the people in the army and the bandits have one thing in common, that is, they use big bowls to drink.
Jiang Wangshu personally poured a bowl of wine for Qi Guanzhuang, and Qi Guanzhuang wiped his hands on his shirt before picking it up. The two of them could never have imagined that they would sit and drink together.
"Jiang Hou, I have something to say," Qi Guanzhuang said with the strength of wine, "I don't know the identity of the son, and I am even a little stupid and a little stupid, but Ah Wu is respectful to him, and even Ah Wu said that the son wants him to be a good bandit, so Ah Wu restrained us, only robbed the rich businessmen and giants on the road, and only robbed the squires of the wealthy families around us. I didn't know what was so good about Childe that could impress Ah Wu, but I had also heard some rumors that not only Ah Wu, but also six bandits buried in the six graves, including Ah Wu, were willing to die for Childe. ”
Qi Guanzhuang drank half a bowl in one gulp, exhaled a sip of wine comfortably, squinted his eyes and said: "I am a bandit, I have done things that hurt the heavens and reason, so I don't expect to have a good ending, these days are very satisfying, more wonderful than the previous life."
"My ancestor was an official of the Song Kingdom, and my father is still there. I was four years old when my father died, and my mother raised me until I was ten years old and died. After the age of ten, he did everything he did, and at the age of fifteen, he fell into the grass just to eat a full meal. Qi Guanzhuang talked about the past, and big tears fell into the bowl.
Jiang Wangshu raised the bowl, Qi Guanzhuang touched him, drank it dry, and said with red eyes: "I have betrayed others, and I have been betrayed by others, and this knife wound on the chest was caused by my woman." My brother betrayed the woman, my life was cheap, and I was hard, I fled to Liangzhou, and returned to my old business, and fell into Caoba Mountain. ”
"I haven't been with Childe for long, but in the past two days, Childe has treated me like family." Qi Guanzhuang drank a lot, a little drunk, and his eyes were blurred and he tasted a rare warmth.
"I understand that I am as ruthless as Ah Wu is as docile as a dog in front of my son, my life is not short but boring, only these few days I live like a person. Please also ask Jiang Hou not to blame Gongzi, Qi Guanzhuang is willing to be punished for Gongzi. Qi Guanzhuang's voice fell, and he raised a knife to wipe it off his neck.
"You're a fool too, if I wanted to kill you, I'll stay until now?" Jiang Wangshu grabbed the blade of the knife with his empty hands, the blood was like silk, and he said indifferently, "Live well for Ah Wu." ”
Qi Guanzhuang choked up, not because he was lucky for the rest of his life, but because he was lucky to meet a stupid son.
The door creaked, and Pu Miao pushed the door out.
"Doctor, how's that?" Jiang Wangshu stood up and asked.
"There is no one in the world to govern," Pu Miao paused and said, "unless the old man makes a move." ”
Jiang Wangshu's hanging heart finally let go, and said, "Wangshu tried his best to cooperate."
Pu Miao called Qiao Yin and said, "Yin, the first medicine, oral, Danshen Wutong Pill."
"Salvia sycamore?" Qiao Yin thought for a while and said, "Danhuang, Tiandong, and Rehmannia each have one or two, liporice, Fushen, and Maidong each have six coins, Yuanzhi, ginseng, and calamus each have three coins, and one dollar of cinnabar, grind them into fine powder, and add honey to make sycamore seed-sized balls." ”
Pu Miao nodded with satisfaction and said, "Second flavor medicine, oral, Yuanzhi Wutong Pill."
"Yuanzhi, Cistanche, Poria cocos, and calamus are soaked in wine in equal amounts, and a small glass in the morning and evening." Qiao Yin replied.
Jiang Wangshu nodded, these medicinal materials are not difficult to find, Jiangcheng has them.
Pu Miao continued: "These two herbs can only cure the surface, not the root cause. If you want to cure it radically, the old man can't do it. ”
"I'm tired of the old gentleman," Jue pushed the door out and said calmly, "Anyway, I've gotten used to it for so many years, so let's be cold-blooded." ”
After speaking, Jue smiled apologetically at Qiao Yin.
"Is there really no other way?" Jiang Wangshu asked, the calmer Jue was, the more worried he was.
"The old man heard that there was a home remedy, but he didn't get the medicinal herbs, so he didn't try it," Pu Miao said, "The old man didn't dare to be sure." ”
"Please also ask the old gentleman to make it clear that he is willing to try the medicine himself." Qi Guanzhuang kowtowed three times in a row.
"Wangshu will also do his best to search for medicinal herbs." Jiang Wangshu arched his hand and said.
"The name of this medicine is Nanban Shenlong Wine, and the medicine is Rehmannia Rehmannia, Cuscuta Seed, Eleutherococcus senticosus, Epimedium and psoralen, which are not difficult to find, but the old man does not know the flavor of Shenlong."
