CHAPTER 12 The Beggar Gang Leader
Ge Liang limped on a branch and appeared on the street of the county seat. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 He had walked for two days to get here, and he was constantly looking at the signs of the shops on both sides of the street, because the knee in his right leg was so painful that he couldn't tell if it was hurting a bone, and wanted to find a doctor to take a look.
Alas, after all calculations, it was a success to coax Zhuge away, why didn't he think that he would have to bring some money with him before escaping, Ge Liang secretly scolded himself for being really stupid. Yesterday, I walked in the middle of the night, thirsty to the roadside to drink the landscape, hungry to the farmland to steal radish, once chased and bitten by a dog, fortunately there was a dog beating stick in his hand.
There was a pharmacy in front of him, and Ge Liang walked in to find the sitting doctor, rolled up his trousers and asked the doctor to diagnose him. The doctor pinched the swollen area, and almost fainted Ge Liang in pain.
"Okay, it's no big deal, the bones aren't broken or broken, what are you screaming like killing a pig? However, in order to prevent bruising, I will prescribe a prescription for you, and you go and grab the medicine and take it on time. The doctor picked up the pen and asked for a prescription.
Ge Liang hurriedly grabbed the pen: "Then I won't trouble you, since I didn't hurt my bones, a little flesh injury is nothing, I'll just rub it more." ”
The doctor kindly advised him: "Although the bones are not broken, they are always injured, and if you are in such pain, you may have broken the bones." If you don't take the medicine, I'm afraid that the leg may be ruined due to severe bruising. ”
"That's not going to be that, I'm going to rub and move around more, and I'll go home and soak it in hot water again to make sure it doesn't bleed. Thank you, I'm leaving. "Ge Liang can't afford to get the medicine right now.
"Okay, I can't help it if you really don't want to take the medicine yourself, but since you don't buy the medicine, then you can pay the money for this diagnosis, only eight dollars." Doctors can't see patients in vain.
Ge Liang couldn't push it off, so he had to plead: "Just pity me, I can't help but come to you." I was walking down the road the day before yesterday when I was met by a gang of robbers who not only robbed me of my money, but also injured my leg. I'm penniless now, I haven't eaten a bite of food for the past two days, and I really don't have the money to pay for the diagnosis. You keep the accounts first, and then I'll get the money back to you when I get home, okay? I will never forget your great kindness. ”
The doctor looked around Ge Liang, thought for a while, and said slowly, "You lied to my old man." I don't think your foot is like a beating, it's like a fall. If it was really beaten by robbers, I was afraid that the bones would be broken. ”
"Wow! The old gentleman is really a fairy, his medical skills are so clever, and he can see it so accurately at a glance. Divine doctor, you always save the life and help the wounded, all for the sake of the health of the injured, it is really admirable. Ge Liang can only talk about sycophants.
The doctor shook his head, he didn't need such a boast: "I see that you are wearing this outfit, although it is stained with some mud, but the fabric is still medium and high, and the workmanship is still fine. Why don't you change this garment and bet it here? ”
It turned out that they fell in love with my clothes! Ge Liang thought that this idea was actually not bad, at least he might be able to avoid the pursuit of the Zhuge family and the Huang family, so he asked: "The old man sits in the hall to ask for a consultation, naturally he has read countless people, and you have seen through everything." I want to ask the old gentleman, if I exchange this dress for your old clothes, will it still be a little more than the consultation fee, and can you still find me some change? ”
"Of course, of course." The old doctor felt that it was definitely a good deal, and raised his hand to greet the guy who was boiling medicine, "You come here, you come here, you keep talking about me working here for two years, and you can't even afford to wear a decent dress when you go home for the New Year, and now I will help you solve it, you come and change your clothes with him." ”
I'll go! It turned out to be premeditated. Ge Liang felt deceived: "This dress is too torn, so many patches; It's too short, and the hand is so long. ”
"It's better to be shorter, it's better to be short, it's better to work shorter, and it's much brisker to walk, don't you just want to go home, go back early, it's going to be the New Year in a few days." The old doctor was a thoughtful man.
"Isn't there any change to find?" Ge Liang can't suffer too much.
"Yes, yes, yes." The old doctor took out a few copper coins and stuffed them into Ge Liang's hand, and then instructed the men, "Bring him the bread baked this morning and put it on his way to eat." He turned to Ge Liang and said, "Look, there is food, clothing and money to spend, how good!" ”
Ge Liang bit the cake in his mouth and walked out of the pharmacy, counted the quilts on his body, there were as many as ten, and looked at the crutch in his hand, and suddenly a thought came to him—am I going to become the leader of the beggar gang? When he was stunned, he felt that someone was pulling at his pants, and when he looked down, he saw that a little beggar in thin clothes and freezing snot was staring at the big cake in his mouth and drooling.
"Wow! So soon, a disciple came to worship the mountain gate? Ge Liang's mouth tightened, and he patted his chest with a sigh of relief, "It scared me to death, I thought it was Xiaobao catching up." "Tear off half of that piece of bread and give it to the little beggar, thinking if this is a welcome gift for the new disciples?
"I want it too, I want it too!" "I want one too!" Out of nowhere, five or six little beggars came up all at once, holding hands and holding legs, and they would not let them go if they were not given bread.
"Let go, let go, let go of me! I don't have anything to eat myself, how can I care about so many of you! Ge Liang found that the leader of the beggar gang was not good, and there were too many people waiting to share the spoils.
Where are those friends willing to let go, since you gave a person bread to eat, why don't you give it to us? One by one, not only did they not let go, but they grabbed tighter, allowing Ge Liang to push left and right, just shouting for bread to eat. In the chaos, Ge Liang felt a lightness on his shoulders, the cloth bag with a few scones that the old doctor had rewarded just now was actually dragged down by a little beggar with a slightly larger head, and just as he was about to reach out to get it back, he was hung by the other two little beggars, and he could only shout anxiously: "Robbery, someone grabbed scones!" ”
The little beggar who was around and waited for the one who had snatched the cloth bag into the alley and let go of his hand, screaming "oh oh oh" one by one, rushing in to share the feast. Ge Liang stretched out his hand and grabbed one, looking at it all a group of children, so he had to let go again. The pedestrians on the side of the road looked at the excitement and laughed: "Little Hanako rebelled and snatched away the rations of Hanako." ”
Ge Liang can't say it: These guys are so bold that they dare to grab the gangmaster's scones, don't you know that the gangmaster is now the same as you, and he doesn't know where the next meal will be after eating this one? What's more, Lao Tzu only ate half of the cake just now!
