Chapter 978: Looking for Immortals in Zhongnan Mountain

Chang'an ends in the mountains in the south.

A group of light horsemen galloped on the mountain road, as fast as wind and fire.

The horse foamed at the mouth, but the knight on the horse did not care for his mount at all, and still drove with his whip. Under normal circumstances, this kind of behavior in the military is subject to military law.

But now, no one cares whether the horses live or die.

In the hearts of this group of knights, there is only one thing left, Sun Simiao must be found.

"Haven't you arrived yet?"

There was no road ahead, and the mount could no longer race.

"Back to Duwei, it's still in the valley under the opposite peak."

As the saying goes, looking at the mountain and running a dead horse, looking at the peak that seems to be on the opposite side, Li Junxian couldn't help but smile bitterly. The horses were no longer able to run, and there was no way ahead.

"This Sun Simiao, Zhongnan Mountain is so big, why do you have to run to such a hard-to-reach place." Having said that, Li Junxian could only say that, he dismounted and patted the horse's neck a few times, "Old man, eat grass and rest by yourself, and come back to you." ”

Carrying the knife, Li Junxian beckoned, "Go!" ”

There are no roads, no horses, but even if you walk, you have to walk through.

This is already their best chance, the emperor has been in a coma for three days, these three days, the guards and pro-military mansions have to investigate whether the emperor has been poisoned and cursed, and all parties have to find a good cure.

It can be said that Li Junxian issued an order to the entire guards and pro-military mansions, and did not hesitate to find doctors and medicines, but the doctors found a lot, even the rivers and lakes, the wizard and the goddess, and countless remedies were found, but in the face of the emperor's situation, they were all helpless.

Li Junxian could only detain all these people first, and then continue to search.

Some people say that there is a great doctor in Zhongnan Mountain, named Sun Simiao, who has the art of rejuvenation with wonderful hands, and is known as the king of medicine.

It is said that he was born in the Western Wei Dynasty for seven years, counted, he should be eighty-one years old now, this person was born in a poor farmer's family, since he was a child, he was clever, and when he grew up, he began to love the Taoist Lao Zhuang doctrine, at the beginning of the Sui Dynasty, he saw that the state affairs were varied, so he lived in seclusion in the South Mountain, and devoted himself to studying medicine.

He would go down the mountain for a period of time every year to go to the countryside to treat the poor people, so he had a very high reputation among the people.

Previously, Li Yuan was the emperor, and he also sent someone to Zhongnanshan to grant him an official position, and wanted to ask him to be a medical officer of the court, but he refused.

"Duwei, is this Sun Simiao really so powerful, if it's just a waste of fame, wouldn't we go on another empty trip?" A school captain asked, in the past few days, there have been thousands of famous doctors from all over the world they have invited, but there are few real miracle doctors, most of them are charlatans or scammers who sell dog skin plasters.

"Even if it's a 1 in 10,000 chance, we have to give it a try."

Li Junxian is under a lot of pressure now, as a private son of heaven, and even more deeply into the emperor's confidants, he wants to see the emperor wake up earlier than anyone else.

"When Sun Simiao was still in the Northern Zhou Dynasty, Yang Jian invited him to Beijing as a doctor of Guozijian when he was the prime minister, it is said that he had been to see Yang Jian, and also debated with a number of famous medical officials in the imperial court at that time, and all the medical officials later said that Sun Simiao was proficient in the "Yellow Emperor's Neijing", "Treatise on Typhoid Fever and Miscellaneous Diseases", "Shennong's Materia Medica" and other ancient famous medical books, I also heard that in recent years, Sun Simiao has been compiling his own medical books, called "Qianjin Prescription" and "Qianjin Yifang", countless doctors are looking forward to seeing these two medical books."

Another lieutenant worried, "But this Sun Yao King is over eighty years old, and no one has seen him for several years, do you think he has died of old age?" ”

"Don't talk nonsense, hurry up." Li Junxian is a nest of fire.

Everyone shut up and hurried away.

Sun Simiao's rumored valley is too far away, compared to the places where the reclusive celebrities stayed, it was simply a primitive secret realm, and he could only follow the path of birds and beasts along the way.

After turning mountain after mountain, crossing valley after valley, seeing that it was about to get dark, just when everyone thought that this trip was wrong, they finally saw a medicine garden in the valley in front of them, which was planted with all kinds of medicinal herbs.

"Looks like this is it."

Li Jun was envious.

Behind the medicine garden of about a few acres of land, there are several thatched houses, starting from bamboo fences.

It's really like a paradise, this is the real hermit, compared to the so-called hermits and celebrities on Zhongnan Mountain in front of them, they are just making a show, building a mountain villa, with domestic servants and scholars, how can they look like they are living in seclusion.

They just regard the seclusion in Zhongnan Mountain as a shortcut to Zhongnan, to gain some fame, so that they can quickly enter the emperor's field of vision and enter the court as soon as possible.

The group walked forward.

Before he got close to the grass house, a few people came out.

The first is a middle-aged scribe, dressed in a cloth robe.

He arched his hand, "I don't know why you suddenly came here, this is my master's retreat, it is inconvenient to disturb, please forgive me." ”

A lieutenant couldn't wait to ask, "Is your master Sun Simiao?" ”

The middle-aged man frowned and called him by name, which was very impolite, not to mention calling the name of his elders to his face.

"Ladies and gentlemen, visitors are not accepted here, please come back."

Li Junxian stepped forward.

"This gentleman, under the court, there is a court, under the court guard pro-military palace captain Wulian County Duke Li Junxian, this time to disturb, is really encountered a tricky medical disease, the world's imperial doctors can not diagnose and treat, I heard that the name of Sun Yaowang, so I rushed to invite, just a moment of hurry, did not bring any gifts, please forgive me, here is only a little small gift, on behalf of the meeting gift, if Sun Yaowang helps to cure the disease, then there will be ten times the gift as a thank you."

With a wave of his hand, several lieutenants each took out a few gold collars.

The general gold collar of each piece of pork loin weighs fifty taels, a full twenty pieces.

One thousand taels of gold.

The middle-aged scribe couldn't help but be shocked.

A meeting gift of 1,000 taels of gold, this is too generous.

Several young people behind him were even more dumbfounded.

"This?"

Li Junxian took out his jade tiger sigil.

The middle-aged man saw it, and handed it back a little nervously, at first he only thought that it was a powerful family member in Chang'an who came to ask the teacher to see a doctor.

But who knows, the other party is actually the captain of the guard pro-military mansion with a jade talisman, even if he lives in seclusion with his master in the mountains, he also knows the name of the guard's pro-military mansion.

The lieutenant of the pro-military mansion who can work and guard came to invite him personally, it seems that the person who wants to see a doctor is not an ordinary person, it is estimated that it is a noble person in the palace.

"Captain, please take a leave of absence, I'll go and inform the teacher."

After a while, the middle-aged man accompanied a young man out.

The young man looked like he was about twenty years old, with a ruddy complexion, a complexion, and a body and gait like a young man.

"Duwei, this is my teacher, Sun Yaowang."

Li Junxian and the captains of the pro-military mansion were all dumbfounded, didn't they say that Sun Simiao was over eighty years old, why did he look like he was less than twenty years old?
