Chapter 19: Encountering Acquaintances in a Foreign Country
"Since you have joined the command of Li Taishou, then you must be loyal to your duties, and don't forget your responsibilities because you are obsessed with martial arts!" Lord Xu Bao, who was watching the battle on the side, saw that Xu Chu had already joined Li Ming's command, so he naturally came forward to persuade him.
"The child understands!" Xu Chu is just obsessed with martial arts, at best he is a martial arts idiot, and he is definitely not an idiot.
"When the national crisis is at hand, although we are not officialdom, how can we sit idly by?" Lord Xu Bao looked at the people behind him, "My Xu family has no one in the son, in the past Yellow Turban Rebellion, our three hundred soldiers overturned thousands of Yellow Turban thieves. Now that Dong Thief is in trouble, our Xu Jiaerlang will be afraid of him?! ”
"Don't be afraid!" Some of the children of the Xu family led by him shouted one after another.
"The Xu family is willing to send five hundred soldiers to assist the adults in recruiting Dong thief! Xu Jiaerlang has been practicing martial arts since childhood, and he can deal with more than 20 enemies on the battlefield alone, and he can defeat several times the enemy in group battles! Now under the command of adults, I hope that adults can do miraculous feats repeatedly! Only then did Lord Xu look at Li Ming and arch his hand.
"Lord, the children of the Xu family have grown up with me since they were children, and I often learn from them, and over time, although the martial arts of the children in the family are not as good as mine, they are also the best among their peers!" Xu Chu patted his chest and reassured.
"So...... Xu Chu, you are responsible for leading 500 soldiers of the Xu family, and together with Dian Jie, act as my personal guard! Li Ming thought about it, and finally arranged the most suitable official position for Xu Chu.
He has briefly understood Xu Chu's situation, his martial arts are first-class, and he can act as a fighting general and a talent in the vanguard army, but if he wants to lead the army alone, he is afraid that there will be problems. The most suitable position for him is the pro-guard army.
Speaking of which, in my memory, doesn't Xu Chu seem to be Cao Cao's personal guards? It's just that he can't remember the specific name of this pro-guard army, after all, he doesn't pay enough attention to it!
The next day, Xu Chu bid farewell to his father and joined Li Ming with 500 soldiers. During this period, Xu Chu and Dian Jie had a fight, and the two guys themselves took the route of breaking through the skill, and they were quite strong at the beginning, but after a closer look, Dian Jie was completely supported by martial arts, but Xu Chu became more and more calm, and defeated Dian Jie after twenty moves.
After Dian Jie was defeated, he personally came to despise him and voluntarily demoted him to an adjutant, with Xu Chu as the chief general of the pro-guard army. Li Ming didn't agree, but Dian Jie insisted, and Wang Yu proposed to keep it unchanged first, and then transfer it after Xu Chu made military exploits in the future, and Dian Jie gave up.
Not only Xu Chu, but also the children of the Xu family also showed good fighting talent, and they were quickly recognized by the pro-guard army, but only recognized their strength. After all, there is an essential difference between a soldier and a warrior.
When he went north, there were 1,000 more soldiers with him, not to mention 500 personal guard soldiers, and 500 heavy soldiers, with a lot of food, and even herbs to stop bleeding.
What made Li Ming speechless was that the lord of Xu Bao took great pains to offer the so-called elixir of hemostasis, and when he saw Li Ming take out several pills and tell him that this was the wound medicine he had refined, the lord of Xu Bao knew that he was making a fool of himself in front of the main master.
At the same time, for Xu Chu and them, they were somewhat relieved. Since the creator of the magic healing medicine is here, as long as there is still a breath of immortality in the future, then it can be saved. The castle lord is a little old, and the most unsightly thing is that the white-haired person sends the black-haired person.
The next day, the army came to Qian County, Li Ming saw the county order, and then came to the bottom of the mountain range where the medical gate was located. It turned out that although Hua Tuo's home was in Qian County, the sect of the medical sect was in a manor ten miles north of Qian County.
In the north of Qian County, ten miles in the afternoon, I saw people from all walks of life, constantly converging towards a certain Zhuangzi. Most of the people seem to be poor and helpless low-level people, but among the crowd, there are still many high-ranking officials and nobles who look like golden branches and jade leaves, and even local wealthy businessmen, who are even more disgusted at the moment Looking at the people in tattered clothes, many women even covered their mouths and noses with their sleeves.
However, no matter who it is, they have to line up to enter the Zhuangzi, and there are many people who come out of the Zhuangzi. If the people who went in were still sick-looking, they would have either been cured or had recovered somewhat.
"Lord, this is Hua Tuo Zhuang, originally the Zhuangzi of the Hua family, after Hua Tuo entered the medical gate, this place has also become the sect of the medical gate, and it is also the best medical hall in Qian County, and even the surrounding counties! Many people have traveled thousands of miles from other states to see a doctor! And Hua Tuo, treating patients has always had a habit, a good impression can even be free, but if the impression is bad, then it may cost a huge amount of money to diagnose and treat. Xu Chu was a local in the end, and explained to Li Ming skillfully.
"Isn't he afraid of offending those dignitaries?" Li Ming said with a smile.
"Naturally, someone is sheltering Hua Tuo behind his back, after all, there is no one with the most medical skills in the world today than him. If anyone really has some incurable disease, if there is no one to help treat it at that time, will they have to sit and wait for death? Xu Chu quickly replied.
Also, in this era when the level of medical care is so bad, there is a miracle doctor who can help save lives, as long as he doesn't want to die, especially those high-ranking officials and nobles, even if he is unhappy with Hua Tuo's rules, he has to shelter him.
Zhuangzi people come and go, and Li Ming can't bring such a group of people over, and in the end, he just took Wang Yu and went to visit.
As a result, he was told that if he wanted to enter Zhuangzi, he had to queue up. Looking at this long dragon, Li Ming felt that this evening was ...... I'm afraid I won't be able to rank myself!
I was thinking about telling Zhuang Ding that he was not here to ask for medical advice, but to visit Hua Tuo.
But I didn't want a familiar voice to come from the side: "Isn't this Li Taishou?!" ”
Li Ming only felt that this voice was very familiar at first, but when he turned his head, he only felt that the scholar in front of him seemed to be very familiar. But for a while, I couldn't seem to remember who he was.
"Haha, it seems that adults and nobles forget things, Wu and adults have been separated in Yangzhai for five years, and it seems that adults will forget me, it seems that there is nothing strange." The scholar laughed.
"Wu Pu, are you Hua Tuo's disciple Wu Pu?" Li Ming immediately remembered, isn't this the medical Wu Pu who gave him a fragment of the "Heart Sutra for Cultivating the Gods" at that time? !
"It seems that Wu can still occupy a place in the hearts of adults!" Wu Pu nodded with satisfaction when he heard this.
"Mr. Hua is here? Originally, I planned to come over a few years ago, but it turned out that there were a lot of things in Huiji County, so I have time to come over to visit now, and I hope Mr. Hua will not see me. Li Ming smiled bitterly.
"My lord came this time, I guess I really won't see my teacher!" Wu Pu smiled bitterly when he heard this, "I heard that Si Li is not living because of the relationship between Dong and the thief, so the teacher has taken more than ten senior brothers to practice medicine in the Luoyang area. ”
"Mr. Hua is not here?" Li Ming looked at the people queuing outside suspiciously, where are there so many people queuing up?
"We have been studying with our teacher for a while, and we are already able to diagnose and treat patients. It's just that if we encounter a situation of strange and complicated diseases, we can't do anything about it. Fortunately, most of the dignitaries and nobles are small problems, just make up for them! Wu Pu smiled mysteriously.
