Zuo Shaoyang said: "You are from Quzhou? ”

The middle-aged man said: "Yes, the little one opened a restaurant in Quzhou, a small business. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info"

"I'm sorry, I overheard what you said just now, I just heard that your child's illness has been seen by the doctor, and the doctor said that the pulse is very strong, is that so?"

"Yes!" The middle-aged man said, "Our famous doctor in Quzhou, Dr. Ao, said that although the child seems to be very sick, his pulse is very strong, and he should be fine." ”

"Uh, are you going to Suzhou to find a doctor to see Ling Lang?"

"Yes." The middle-aged man said, "Although it doesn't matter what Dr. Ao said, but after taking medicine, it didn't get better, so I wanted to go to Suzhou to find a famous doctor." ”

"Then I advise you not to go."

"Why?"

"Because of ......," Zuo Shaoyang lowered his voice and said heavily: "Your son's illness, I'm afraid I won't survive tomorrow!" ”

The middle-aged man's body was shocked, he thought that Zuo Shaoyang left him to talk about things, he was going to see a doctor for the child, but he didn't expect to say this. The middle-aged woman burst into tears. The middle-aged man looked at Zuo Shaoyang with a gloomy face: "Master, you ......, you are really a doctor?" ”

"That's right. I said this with good intentions, your son's illness has not been cured, and he will not live tomorrow, you return to Quzhou now, prepare for the future, it is still too late, otherwise, Ling Lang is likely to die in a foreign land! ”

The woman cried and said, "My lord, you haven't even checked my son's pulse, how do you know that he won't live to tomorrow?" Doctor Ao of Quzhou City said that my son's pulse is very strong, and he will not die! ”

"It is precisely after listening to his statement and seeing your son's face that I can be sure that he will not survive Ming!"

"Why do you say that?"

Zuo Shaoyang smiled and shook his head: "I'm sorry, I can't tell you." But one thing is for sure, I hope you will listen to what I just said. Of course, if you don't care about your son's death, that's fine. Count me too much. Alright, I'm done talking, you can go. ”

The middle-aged woman didn't want to hear bad news about her son, and subconsciously wanted to avoid it, so when she heard this, she quickly got up and pulled her husband out.

The middle-aged man walked to the door, stood again, and looked back at Zuo Shaoyang and them. Zuo Shaoyang didn't look at him, just took a glass of wine and drank it all. He put down his glass and shook his head again.

The middle-aged couple left the restaurant and got into a carriage parked in the courtyard, which left the courtyard with a sway, and when they reached the courtyard, they stopped. After stopping for about a cup of tea, it is estimated that I discussed things inside, and in the end, I went in the direction of Suzhou City.

Zuo Shaoyang sighed, it seems that they still don't believe their words, or they are lucky, even if they tell them the truth, they are not willing to give up the last hope, so they choose to go to Suzhou.

Qing Miaozi took a glass of wine and said, "Uncle Taishi, how do you know that he won't survive Ming Yue?" ”

The reason is actually very simple, "The Yellow Emperor's Neijing" has a cloud about the pulse: "If it is big, it will be sick, and if it is small, it will be flat." That is to say, if a patient with an extremely weak appearance should have a weak pulse, but it is very powerful, this indicates that the evil qi in his body is very vigorous, and the human body is using the last energy to fight against the evil qi, so it will show that the person is extremely weak and the pulse is extremely vigorous, that is, the human body is in the last stubborn resistance of the dying struggle, which is the "return to light" reflected by the dying patient on the pulse. Zuo Shaoyang looked at his sick appearance and saw that he couldn't swallow when he ate but vomited, but when he heard him say that his pulse was very strong, he concluded that the evil in this young man's body had been corrected and had come to the end of his life.

However, this is only his personal judgment, based on the extreme contradiction between the pulse and the results of the consultation, he was also a little drunk just now, and he was kind-hearted, so he said it casually, really wanted him to explain, but he didn't want to say it, because he didn't know whether his judgment was correct or not.

But seeing that several great-disciples and grandchildren were all looking at themselves, waiting for their own explanations, and dealing with them in general, they rolled their eyes and said casually: "I can see it from my face." ”

Qing Meizi and the others were all happy, and said: "It turns out that Uncle Taishi can also use physiognomy!" That's great, can you point us out? ”

Sun Simiao snorted heavily: "Don't the three of you have your own master?" ”

All three stuck out their tongues and didn't dare to say more.

Zuo Shaoyang said: "Yes, your master is right, if you have any questions, you can ask your master." ”

After everyone finished eating, they then drove to Quzhou City.

In the evening, I finally came to Quzhou City.

This town is relatively small, similar to Hezhou, but the people in the city are mostly dressed simply, and there are many people who help the old and the young beg for food on the street. This is a bit surprising that this is still the case after the country has basically completed the equalization system, but the vicinity of Quzhou is full of high mountains and dense forests, except for a very small amount of cultivated land in the mountains. Since there is little fertile land, it is naturally not enough. The fields were all divided between the government, military households, and large families, and ordinary people naturally had no land to share, so they could only wander and beg.

The group went straight to the yamen of the state capital, only to see that the gate was closed, and only two soaps with a single knife on their waists and hips sat lazily under the eaves and talked.

Zhen Lingzi stepped forward and said: "The two old men are invited, our lord is a doctor from Chaosan from the capital, and we want to see Lord Assassin Shi of your mansion." With that, he handed over the prayer post.

When the two soaps heard this, they hurriedly got up and gave up their hands. Respectfully took the post and looked at it, with a smile on his face, he came over to greet Zuo Shaoyang, and said with a smile: "Master, it's really unfortunate, our master is not in the city." ”

"Oh, where?"

"There has been a lot of rain this year, and flash floods have occurred in many places, which have washed away the fertile land.

"yes?" Zuo Shaoyang was slightly disappointed, "How long will it take to come back?" ”

"It's hard to say, because the autumn harvest is coming soon. Lord Assassin Shi wants to supervise the autumn harvest next, and he won't even take the case. ”

In ancient times, magistrates did not take on cases during the busy farming seasons of spring plowing and autumn harvest, and personally went down to the countryside to supervise agricultural affairs in a timely manner, and at the same time learned about the agricultural situation in order to predict how much agricultural income would be in the current year.

Qing Lingzi next to him asked, "There is always someone in charge of the state capital now, right?" ”

"Yes, now only Master Liu, the soldier, is in charge of affairs in the house."

Si Bing is in charge of the local armed forces in the state and county yamen, which is equivalent to the head of the county armed forces, Zuo Shaoyang They came to open a medical center, so naturally they can't get along with this Si Bing, and such a small official can't be the master. Anyway, I have money in my hand, so I don't have to worry about not being able to do anything, so I didn't even bother to see this soldier, so I decided to find a place to live first, and then find someone to buy or rent a house, and open a medical center.

They took a horse-drawn carriage around the whole city of Quzhou, and took a fancy to an inn located in the center of the city, the terrain is relatively good, and decided to live here, and the next step is to find a nearby shop to buy and open a pharmacy.

When the carriage heard the courtyard, the two shopkeepers greeted him with a smile on their faces, nodded and asked, "Is the guest officer sharpening or staying in the hotel?" ”

"If you live in a hotel, you need a few upper rooms."

The shopkeeper said with a smile: "I'm really sorry, the upper rooms of the small shop are all full, only the back of the Chase shop." ”

"What?" Qing Lingzi glanced at the inn, "You have a huge inn, and there don't seem to be many guests, why don't you have a room?" Don't coax me! ”

"Don't dare, Master Dao, it's really gone. The little ones don't dare to lie to you. ”

Qing Lingzi was still about to say, and Shoutongzi said: "Okay, forget it if you don't have it, there are so many inns in the city, don't worry about finding a place to live." Let's go! ”

"Yes!" Qing Lingzi agreed, glared at the shopkeeper fiercely, got into the carriage and continued to look for it, but I didn't expect that I looked for several in a row, but there was no upper room, only the Chase Shop, Qing Lingzi pinched his nose and went to the back of the Chase Shop to take a look, all the people who lived were peddlers and pawns, and men and women lived in a huge house, and there was no way to live at all.

It was really strange, and the group went to search for more than a dozen inns in the city, all of which were not in the room, only the Chase Shop.

This is something they have never encountered, Qing Lingzi didn't believe it, and went upstairs to check them one by one, and after it was over, he hung his head and came down, the upper room was really full of people, and the store did not deceive them.

The upper room of the ancient inn is equivalent to the luxurious single room of the current star-rated hotel, Zuo Shaoyang frowned and said: "This Quzhou is even more remote and poor than Hezhou, how can so many people come here to live in the upper room of the inn?" These dozen families are down, and I am afraid that there will not be hundreds of people living in the upper room. These people are almost all rich people, and ordinary people will not spend that unjust money. ”

Qing Miaozi smiled: "Could it be that some treasure was found here, and these rich people have run away to dig for treasures?" ”

As soon as he talked about the treasure, Zuo Shaoyang immediately thought of the treasure map in the box "Analects" left by Du Yan, the treasure map that he couldn't find either. It's really worrying to watch.

Sun Simiao doesn't care about any treasure issues, for him, he really regards money as dung, and what he cares about now is how to help Zuo Shaoyang build a medical hall. However, now the inn is full of people, and the Chase shop can't live, and there is no place to stay.

Qing Lingzi said: "Otherwise, let's go to the yamen to have a look, let them introduce the inn, and make a few upper rooms." ”
