Chapter Forty-Six: Playing Away
Chapter Forty-Six: Playing Away
When Xie An realized his carelessness, he got a more definite answer from the mouth of the dog baby, their homeless gang had sent someone to count the number of people sold to the East China Sea. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
The dog baby was already crying and kneeling to beg Xie An for forgiveness, knowing that things would turn out like this, they should have let him go when they took Xie An's jade pendant.
Xie An blamed himself, when he was beaten by them in the alley, he should have fought with the idea of running away even if he was injured, and waited for Xie Shang's plug-in to arrive, greedily enjoying the privileges of children...... This is not Jiankang, and you are not facing the children of a family who are fighting five scum!
On weekdays, Huan Wen treats him very well, and every time he is "beaten" in a martial arts competition, it doesn't hurt at all, which makes Xie An overestimate his force value.
Xuan Xiu only learned a foundation, calligraphy is still in the penance of being beaten by Wang Xizhi, acupuncture and moxibustion pills are only scratching the surface, and I have read some Confucian metaphysics books, but it is still useless to meet unreasonable people...... What have you learned over the years!
At this moment, Xie An was tied up by Wuhua and locked up in the kitchen of the old doctor's house who treated Xiaohe, and he was full of resentment.
He needed a weapon to defend himself.
He wants to strengthen martial arts or metaphysical cultivation, whatever he wants, as long as he can fight.
He also needs a guard very much, and his martial arts must be as good as that of Wang Xi's family, and he must be loyal, just like Xiao Qi'er and Dog Baby's loyalty to his master's family - because even if they feel guilty about Xie An and swear to share weal and woe with him, they will not help Xie An go to the dock or the government to report the news that he is now trapped.
On the dilemma of loyalty and righteousness, the simple child chooses not to betray either, loyalty is to the gang that raised and protects them, and righteousness is to Xie An, who is regarded as a friend by them.
Xie An was finally convinced, and now the hope of escaping was 80 percent, and the remaining 20 percent seemed to fall on the old doctor.
The old doctor's surname was Si, with white hair, a rickety body, and he seemed to be seriously ill, and Xie An could hear his coughing sound from afar when he was stupidly tied up in the kitchen.
Xie An thought about whether he could bluff this physician by saying Ge Hong's name, but people didn't seem to give him a chance to talk at all, and stuffing a walnut into his mouth could make him completely dumb.
It's really useless to encounter a hooligan like a mouth cannon! Learn martial arts! Learn to fight!
Huan Xiaowen, you wait, when I return to Jiankang, I will go to the military camp to report, anyway, you said that you would cover me in the army!
The Xie family has always been a civilian official, but he has no connections in the military, Huan Wen is different, after all, this eldest brother is the first man in martial arts!
At this moment, Xie An's heart was anxious as if he had been burned by fire, he had come to the Eastern Jin Dynasty for five years, this was the first time he was so irritable and restless, in the final analysis, he had no social experience in his previous life, and he lived a leisurely life after wearing it, and he was tossed by Song Yi in the past few days and almost half his life was almost gone, and he was still patient, just relying on Xie Shang to follow, but now he really can't help it.
Just as he was gritting his teeth in a rage, the physician led a thin little girl of seven or eight years old into the kitchen, the little girl was holding a small basket of herbs in both hands, and the two ignored Xie An and began to light a fire and scoop water to boil medicine.
Physician Si said to the little girl: "These are the medicines you have to take every day, boil five bowls of water into one bowl, drink them three times, remember to drink them after filling your stomach...... Ahem, you must not have an empty stomach, and you must not drink water to fill your stomach, remember? ”
The little girl nodded vigorously, "Grandpa, in the future, I will learn from you to grow and collect medicines, and I will help you decoct medicines, the money that Brother gave you is definitely not enough, Luan'er must work hard to repay you!" ”
Physician Si shook his head and didn't say anything.
Xie An listened to their conversation again and figured out that this little girl was Xiao He's younger sister who had been weak and sick since childhood, named He Luan.
He Luan looked at it as a perennial deficiency of qi and blood, and perhaps with a cold body disease that was difficult to get rid of, no wonder Xiao He would rather die by herself and exchange the jade pendant for her sister's medicine, because she had to drink a lot of tonic medicine to recover.
There are too many poor people in the world, and Xie An is really in no mood to pity others now. As soon as he thought that he was going to be a pirate, if he did a good job, his biggest future would be to become the king of pirates...... Of course, it cannot be ruled out that he endured humiliation and won the trust of the Haikou boss, and then burned down the Haikou base camp on a dark and windy night of a month.
He was made to laugh by his own brain.
And he also found that he was still a person who would have fun in the midst of suffering, because he really laughed out loud when he thought about it.
Doctor Si was teaching He Luan some pharmacology, because he was always coughing and was struggling to speak, but Xie An's smile interrupted his lecture, and he immediately glared at him.
In this era, Xie An's family is more likely to arouse the hatred of the homeless people, after all, who made you the ruling class that does not let the people have enough to eat.
Xie An shook his head while laughing, indicating that he had something to say.
Physician Si really walked over and took out the walnut in his mouth to see what he had to say.
Xie An finally stopped laughing and licked his lips, "I laugh at the doctor and can't heal himself, don't teach bad little girls." ”
Physician Si frowned and asked, "What do you mean?" ”
Xie An asked rhetorically: "The doctor has a perennial cough, right, why can't it be relieved?" ”
Physician Si sneered, "Xiao Langjun will? ”
"Don't be too simple, listen to the doctor's cough should be a cold cough, ginger soup I think the doctor should have taken it a long time ago, but there is a better medicine, use citrus peel shreds to dry and age, the longer you put it, the stronger the medicinal properties, if you want to eat it and then use it to chew or boil water, it can dissolve phlegm and relieve cough, as for the use of dredging cardiovascular and cerebrovascular vessels, it can also lower blood pressure, of course you don't understand."
Xie An glanced at the leftovers in the kitchen again, "I see that the doctor is good at cutting raw fish and dipping it in sauce to eat, this is a big taboo for people who often cough, since you are a doctor, is it wrong for me to say that you can't self-medicate?" By the way, the food should be light. ”
At this time, he had not yet discovered the flavor of tangerine peel, and Xie An didn't know how many packs of nine-system tangerine peel snacks he had eaten in his previous life, which was simply a smooth passage, speaking of which, the method of making tangerine peel had not been told to Ge Hong.
If he can go back to Jiankang, he must make this tangerine peel into snacks and feed it to Wang Xizhi.
Doctor Si saw him talk eloquently, and he couldn't refute it for a while, and it seemed that he had never heard of orange peel medicine, but when he heard Xie An say a few unintelligible terms, the old man was so curious that he wanted to ask but couldn't pull his face to ask.
"When I just talked about cardiovascular and cerebrovascular blood pressure, I refer to geriatric diseases at your age, such as sometimes you feel palpitations, or dizziness, chest tightness and breathlessness after heavy work. Of course, tangerine peel is only a warm tonic that can only alleviate the symptoms, and many other medicines are needed to treat these geriatric diseases......"
Xie An explained to him "kindly", and at this time, He Luan's eyes lit up when he was watching the fire, and Doctor Si's iceberg-like face was slightly surprised.
He asked, "Xiao Langjun has studied medicine?" ”
Xie An changed his mind and didn't want to say Ge Hong's name, but said lightly: "It's just a family study." ”
You have to install it when it's time to install it.
The old man became inexplicably excited, "Could it be that it is Penglai Medical Codex?" ”
Xie An nodded subconsciously, then immediately shook his head, closed his lips, and remained silent.
This time, the old man seemed to be more sure that he had read the Penglai classics, because people who could say that there was no knowledge in this world were generally gifted cultivators, because only they could enter the Penglai Pavilion in the East China Sea through the Penglai classics to seek a cure for saving the world.
This life-saving medicine not only refers to medical skills, but also refers to the art of governing the country and the army!
Life is like a play, it all depends on acting skills, Xie An prayed that the old man was fooled by himself, and then let him go only after seeing that he was a man......
But soon he found out that he was playing with it again.
Because the old man grabbed his hand very excitedly, "My brother is in the East China Sea, I will ask Xiao Langjun to bring a letter, and let him take care of you when the time comes!" ”
"My brother is a good doctor, it's a pity that he has half a book of Penglai Medical Classics but can't enter Penglai Pavilion, if he knows Xiao Langjun's talent, he must take care of it wholeheartedly!"
If I had known, I would have shut up. Fortunately, Xie An has a good temperament, otherwise he would have vomited blood a long time ago.
……
After a night of silence, when Xie An was tied up and felt that his hands were almost useless, the little girl named He Luan suddenly secretly ran to the kitchen and brought him food.
Little girl, I don't want to eat it now, can I bother to loosen the tie?
Of course, he wouldn't be stupid enough to ask the enemy for help, but after He Luan fed him, he knelt down in front of him and kowtowed three times, "Engong, I actually know that the money for treatment was 'borrowed' from you by my brother, and Luan'er can't let you go, which will affect Doctor Si, but Luan'er can report for you." ”
"I heard that the ship to the East China Sea is about to leave tonight, so there is still one day."
This can be regarded as a good person with a good reward, Xie An believed, but he no longer had anything of value or identity on him.
He Luan'er had an idea, took a pen and paper, and brought him to write a letter.
In order to prevent this letter from being found and exposed, Xie An wrote a sentence in a cryptic manner: Facing the East China Sea, the spring flowers are blooming, born in sorrow, and died in peace.
Such a haphazard patchwork of sentences emphasizes "Donghai" and "An".
Therefore, Xie An deliberately used lines to write these three words, and the other words were written in regular script.
At this time, calligraphy is not popular, and daily letters are not common, and those who are popular have to read the book saint, but now our Loli calligraphy is still practicing calligraphy at home.
Although Xie An's handwritten book has the foundation of his previous life, he was still abused by Wang Xizhi.
"Eun Gong's handwriting is better than that of my brother." He Luan wrinkled his nose and said with a slight choked voice.
Looking at the back of He Luan leaving, Xie An suddenly realized that this little girl wouldn't know that her brother had died, right?
However, he didn't say anything.
The place where he discussed with He Luan to deliver the letter was not to go to the dock to find his cousins Xie Zhenshi and Xie Shang, but to go to Yahou Street in Guangling Mansion, where a family lived - the homeless general Shuai Xijian.
Because there have always been homeless gangs at the wharf, helping large households to unload goods or do some odd jobs, which is a bit like the Cao gang of later generations, if the Eastern Jin Dynasty wants to build a comprehensive canal in the future, these homeless gangs must be properly handled.
At the moment, of course, He Luan can't go to the dock, because once she goes, she will be exposed.
I can only go to Xi Jian.
Because if Xie Shang can't find Xie An, he will definitely go to Xi Jian, who has a lot of eyes and ears in Guangling, for help.
