233, will escape
When Xu Xiaole was exploring the road of warm illness at Tan Gongchao's house, Huang Ren was wiping Xu Xiaole's table for the seventy-second time. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
He was originally just a young man, and wherever there was chores, he was there. Now he is Xu Xiaole's popular little follower, who dares to ask him to work, so he can only wipe the table. It's a little boring at the same time, but fortunately, I can still memorize it in my head.
The whole book of "Neijing" that Xu Xiaole took out really opened the eyes of the entire Changchun Hall.
Those apprentices of Yang Chengde could only hang their heads in despair under the weight of this set of medical classics. Even Yang Chengde himself is thinking about whether he needs to kneel again for this complete set of "Neijing".
Huang Ren and the other four people were ordered to copy and endorse books, and the scenery was really infinite, and they could attract envy, jealousy and hatred wherever they went. Because of the existence of this set of books, Chen Mingyuan, Li Jinfang, Qin Kang and Huang Ren have become a real small group, and they have vaguely become the core of all the guys in Changchun Hall.
Life is wonderful!
Huang Ren's only regret now is that his legs and feet are not fast enough, so that Mr. Xu will not take him out. He believed that if he could outrun the galloping horse one day, Mr. Xu would definitely take him with him.
Huang Ren pinched the fat on his stomach, and felt that that day seemed too far away.
"Is Dr. Xu Xiaole here?"
A timid child's voice sounded outside the door.
Huang Ren put down the rag in his hand and walked over to see that it was a little beggar in his teens. He said, "Mr. Xu went to the doctor, what can you tell me, I will study medicine with him." Huang Ren said and straightened his chest.
The little beggar looked at Huang Ren and said, "I'm here to deliver a message, and I must see him in person before I can say it." ”
Huang Ren said impatiently: "Then you can only wait." ”
The little beggar showed an anxious expression: "I was sent by Daoist Han Dao, and he said that he must find Doctor Xu as soon as possible." ”
Han Dao Chang...... Han Tong Ji Han Dao Chang? Huang Ren still remembered that Han Dao Chief. In fact, every moment of visiting Mr. Xu in Mudu that day was firmly engraved in his memory and will never be forgotten for the rest of his life.
The little beggar asked rhetorically, "Do you know Daoist Han?" ”
Huang Ren said: "Of course I know. By the way, if you can't wait, you can go to Guangfuqiao and wait for Mr. Xu's boat, the one with the Jinyi Guard's flag. ”
The little beggar ran away. Unexpectedly, he ran back not long after he went, grabbed Huang Ren again, and said, "Mr. Xu's boat has returned, but the boat boss doesn't know where he went." ”
Huang Ren frowned and said, "Is Daoist Han in a hurry?" ”
The little beggar said categorically: "Daoist Han said, it's as urgent as a fire burning to the eyebrows!" ”
Huang Ren had no choice but to say, "You wait first, I'll say hello to the shopkeeper and go with you to find it." He paid attention to Xu Xiaole all the time, knowing that his husband had limited places to go. If you come back from Qionglong Mountain but don't go back to the hospital, most likely you go to the county medical office to find someone to discuss tuberculosis-related matters.
In addition, a small half went to the Qiyue Bookstore.
The county medical office is an official office, and there is also a county office next to it, and the little beggar, let alone entering the door, will be driven away just by appearing on that street. Huang Ren told the little beggar to go to the bookstore, and if he couldn't find it, he would come back and wait immediately. He himself went to the county medical office to find Xu Xiaole. If no one can be found in either place, the only thing to do is to crash into the city.
Huang Ren's luck is indeed enviable. He went to the county medical office and didn't find anyone, and he didn't even hear any news, but when he came out and turned two streets, he saw Xu Xiaole outside the divine object. The luck is similar to picking up silver on the ground.
Xu Xiaole was recalled by Huang Ren, and when he heard that Han Tongzhi had 100,000 urgent things to look for him, he didn't hesitate at the moment, and hurriedly rushed back to Changchun Hall. As soon as he walked to the entrance of the alley, he saw a thin beggar squatting in the corner of the wall, his eyes rolling slightly, waiting for Xu Xiaole to appear.
Xu Xiaole stepped forward and reported to his home: "I am Xu Xiaole." You were sent by Daoist Han? ”
The little beggar looked at Xu Xiaole's face carefully, as if it was matching the appearance in his impression, and finally said, "Daoist Han asked me to give this to you." The little beggar said, took out a wax pill from his arms, and handed it to Xu Xiaole.
Xu Xiaole took the wax pill and gave Huang Ren a look.
Huang Renfu came to his mind, and actually understood what Xu Xiaole meant, and hurriedly took out two big coins and stuffed them into the little beggar, counting them as a reward for his errand and letter.
The little beggar waved his hand and said, "Daoist Han saved my life, don't ask for money for him to do things!" ”
Xu Xiaole smiled, took the copper coin and stuffed it to him again, and said, "This is my thank you, what is the matter with Guan Han Daochang?" ”
The little beggar was caught in the entanglement of whether to take it or not, and Xu Xiaole had already entered with the wax pill in his hand.
Back in the dormitory, Xu Xiaole closed the door, pinched open the wax pill, and saw a small note sealed inside. He unfolded the note, which had cinnabar handwriting the size of a fly's head, and only wrote eight words: Dan will be defeated, and we will meet again in the future.
Han Tongzhi wanted to escape because of the failure of alchemy, which is human nature. If he left late, it would be unwise to ask the master's family to find that the heavenly spirit and earth treasures of a few hundred taels of silver had been lost, and he would be sent to the yamen to accuse him of demon fraud.
However, Xu Xiaole looked at it, and his face seemed to have a big word "confused": Brother Han is not really alchemy, how could he fail?
Using medicine to pretend to be alchemy to fool laymen is a common method used by Taoist priests in Youfang. Basically, it will not be exposed, because both use many rare tools, and the steps are strict and there is no room for negligence. However, there is no such thing as a failure, at best, there is a difference in the strength of the drug. If pharmaceuticals are going to fail, what a strange thing will have to happen?
Xu Xiaole looked at the sky outside, and the city gate was already closed.
He secretly said in his heart: If Brother Han wants to escape, he will definitely not be able to leave the city today. And he didn't come to me personally, presumably because he didn't want to involve me. Tomorrow is the end of the seven-day period, and he can only leave tomorrow morning before sunrise, sneak out while the main house is unprepared, and escape as soon as the city gate opens.
Xu Xiaole was not worried about Han Tongzhi's ability to survive after he escaped.
As a wandering Taoist who travels thousands of miles alone, Han Tongzhi must have a complete set of survival wisdom, which can help him change places and still live like a fish in water. However, the silver that was originally intended to support the great cause of curing the disease has become a mirror flower, which is really unwilling, and it is really a good thing to grind.
Xu Xiaole refused to admit defeat, sat cross-legged on the bed, and supported his chin to think about countermeasures: Is there any way to protect Han Tongzhi and get the silver?
I'm afraid that only by refining the "elixir" can the Lord be satisfied.
But Daoist Han had already said that "Dan will be defeated and escaped", obviously he will definitely not be able to refine it.
Xu Xiaole thought again: Then what should I do if I take a step back and only protect Brother Han?
- Wait, why take a step back?
- Isn't it a elixir? I have it!
Xu Xiaole suddenly realized: He can achieve the best of both worlds!
