He was very distressed, anyway, one sheep was also driven, and two sheep were also booming, and the three concubines were married together. However, he really didn't want to treat marriage as a charity or mercy.

Alas! It's not a good thing to have more women.

Zuo Shaoyang was thinking about what to do with a bitter face, and as soon as the door opened, Miao Peilan walked out, and said to Zuo Shaoyang a little anxiously: "Brother Zuo, the grass girl still hasn't woken up." I don't know what I fed her. Do you want to use a crane-beak pot again? ”

Zuo Shaoyang stood up: "I'll take a look first." ”

When I entered the room, I saw Cao'er lying on her back on the floor, her eyes closed, motionless.

Zuo Shaoyang didn't know why Cao'er had been sleeping and couldn't wake up, he fed her gruel before, but it had no effect, thinking it was the reason for Guan Ge, he used laxatives, and the mess in his stomach was pulled out, but he still didn't wake up, and it was useless to use the medicine to open his mind and wake up, and now it seems that he can only feed ginseng gruel.

Zuo Shaoyang said: "I'll irrigate!" ”

I took the gruel, poured it into the crane's beak pot, and slowly poured the grass down.

The ginseng gruel was poured down, but the grass was still unconscious.

Zuo Shaoyang found that Cao'er's pulse was getting weaker and weaker, and he couldn't help but feel heavy in his heart, so far, he couldn't find why Cao'er was unconscious, in the absence of modern medical testing technology, and the "questioning" of the crucial part of the questioning could not be carried out, it was really difficult to judge why a person has been unconscious. He has already done the right medicine, and he has also used the medicine to awaken the mind, but it still has no effect.

Zuo Shaoyang sat on the mattress in a daze.

At this time, Zuo Guiliang and Master Qiao came and stood at the door, seeing Zuo Shaoyang sitting there in a daze, Zuo Gui gestured to Master Qiao outside the lobby, signaling him to be calm and close the door. walked over, stood beside Zuo Shaoyang, and said, "How is Miss Cao'er?" ”

"I'm critically ill, but I don't know why."

"Then let's think about it later, what was discussed just now, Master Qiao, they have already agreed, so they will do what we want. The deed was also signed. Externally, it is said that we hired a housekeeper, so that it is convenient to live at home and eat. ”

"Okay......" Zuo Shaoyang was still pondering Cao'er's illness, and replied casually.

Zuo Gui sighed and went out.

Zuo Shaoyang sat there holding his cheeks and thought. Miao Peilan sat with him first, seeing that he was stunned, he didn't say a word for a long time, then got up and walked to the corner of the house, picked up the toilet to go to the toilet to pour, Zuo Shaoyang watched her walk by with the toilet, suddenly moved in his heart, and said urgently: "Peilan, is this the grass girl's feces?" ”

"Well, I'll take it and pour it."

"Wait, let me see!"

"Huh? What do you see this for? It stinks! ”

"Are you still afraid of stink?" Zuo Shaoyang took the toilet and said: "The visit in the four diagnoses includes observing the second stool, and you can understand a lot of conditions from the second stool." ”

Only then did Miao Peilan understand that Zuo Shaoyang was observing Erbian to figure out what Cao'er's disease was and why she had been unconscious.

Zuo Shaoyang opened the toilet seat, and a smell rushed up, but he didn't frown and observed carefully.

There are many undigested wild plants in the excrement of the grass, and many of these wild plants have remained in their original state. He didn't know that at that time, Cao'er was unable to slowly look for wild vegetables to choose what he could eat, but lay on the ground and couldn't get up, so he could only pull the wild vegetables around him and eat. At that time, Cao'er felt bitter and astringent and difficult to swallow, so she didn't chew, but swallowed the whole wild vegetable directly with snow, and at this moment her gastrointestinal function was already very weak, these wild vegetables could not provide any nutrients, and the stomach and intestines almost did not digest these wild vegetables that were not food, so most of them maintained their original appearance.

Zuo Shaoyang took the toilet brush and carefully looked at the wild vegetables in the toilet bowl that remained the same, suddenly, his eyes lit up, a ball of withered yellow wild vegetables caught his attention, the appearance was very familiar, he carefully used the toilet brush to unfold the wild vegetables, and couldn't help but sigh, this withered flower with the same shape as a trumpet flower turned out to be a golden flower! It is a mandala flower used in the production of anesthetics!

Zuo Shaoyang originally thought that mandalas were only grown in Bai Zhihan's backyard, but he didn't expect them to exist elsewhere! I don't know why I happened to be swallowed by the grass as food.

Direct consumption of mandala flowers is poisonous, which can lead to increased heart rate, blurred vision, drowsiness, confusion, etc., and in severe cases, it can lead to paralysis of the respiratory center and death.

No wonder Cao'er has been unconscious, and it is useless to even use the medicine to awaken the mind. But it turned out that he was poisoned by taking a mandala and fell unconscious!

The antidote to mandala poison and the use of mandala as a raw material for resuscitation are two different things, and cannot be rescued by anesthetic resuscitation, the antidote formula for mandala poisoning is mung bean, honeysuckle, forsythia and licorice.

Other medicines are easy to do, but honeysuckle is hard to find.

Although honeysuckle was recorded in the medical book for the first time as a medicinal material in the Tang Dynasty, but in the early years of the Tang Dynasty, many medical halls did not use this medicinal material, at that time Zuo Shaoyang was ready to plant honeysuckle, Zuo Gui persuaded that many doctors of honeysuckle would not use it, and there were few prescriptions, so the demand was not large, and it was recommended that he not plant it. I didn't think I could use it now.

Zuo Shaoyang called Bai Zhihan over and asked, "Do you have honeysuckle in the garden?" ”

Bai Zhihan shook his head.

"This flower is so beautiful, why don't you plant it?"

Bai Zhihan smiled and said: "There are more beautiful flowers in the world, all of them have been planted, can I plant them?" Besides, there are many honeysuckle mountains on it, if you want to see it picked up on the mountain, there is nothing unusual, what to plant it for. ”

Zuo Shaoyang smiled bitterly: "This flower is a good medicine for clearing heat and detoxifying, and I will use it to treat the grass girl now." ”

Bai Zhihan asked in surprise: "Is the grass girl poisoned?" ”

"Yes, it is the poison of mandala, which needs to be detoxified with honeysuckle."

"Then let's see if there's anything in the pharmacy."

"Hmm."

Zuo Shaoyang was sure that there was no such medicine in their pharmacy, and he remembered that there was no such medicine in the medicine he bought from Hengchang Pharmacy. You can only go to other medical centers or pharmacies to find it. Zuo Shaoyang said to Miao Peilan: "Do you know Yinhua?" ”

At the beginning of the Tang Dynasty, honeysuckle was called honeysuckle, there were many wild honeysuckles on the mountain, Miao Peilan had been collecting firewood on the mountain for many years, so she naturally recognized it and nodded busily.

"Okay, I need silver flowers to treat the grass girl, can you help me go to the various pharmacies in the city to find out if there are any silver flowers for sale?"

"Good!"

Miao Peilan agreed, and was about to leave, when she was stopped by Zuo Shaoyang: "Wait a minute." You go to the ground near the place where you found the grass and see if there are any withered and withered mandala flowers. Cao'er was poisoned by this medicine, and now I need it in large quantities. You help me find it. ”

The last time the mandala flower was found and delivered from the back garden of Bai Zhihan's grandfather's house, Miao Peilan had seen it, so she recognized it. immediately agreed, and walked out quickly.

Zuo Shaoyang found out the other herbs and prepared them, and waited for Yinhua to buy them back and dispense them for Cao'er to decoction.

At this time, a person came in at the door, but it was Aunt Long, a slave of the old lady Qu's house next door. The eyes are red and swollen, presumably because of the sad death of the young master of the Qu family.

Aunt Long said to Zuo Gui's father: "Our old lady wants to invite your family over, including Zhi'er, to discuss an important matter. ”

"Oh, what's the matter?" Zuo Gui asked.

"I don't know, just say please go."

Zuo Gui's father nodded, left the little apprentice Ni Zhi to take care of the house, closed the door, and the family followed Aunt Long to the old mansion of the Qu family.

The huge old mansion was deserted and deadly. A few people went straight into Master Qu's main room.

Old Lady Qu reclined on the bed, her face was like ashes, and Old Lady Qu and Mrs. Qu sat on the edge of the bed, crying silently. Seeing them come in, the two of them hurriedly got up to salute. Old lady Qu also tried to get up, Zuo Gui hurriedly stepped forward and pressed his shoulder: "Old lady, you just lie down, you don't need to get up." ”

Aunt Long and Bai Zhihan brought three stools, gathered around the bed, and let Zuo Gui, Liang and Zuo Shaoyang sit down. The two of them stood by the door.

Old Lady Qu looked at them and said slowly, "I invited Mr. and Mrs. Xian and Ling Lang to come over to discuss something. ”

"If the old lady has something to say, please feel free to command."

Old lady Qu looked around and said gloomily: "This old mansion was handed down by my ancestors, and it was originally intended to be passed down from generation to generation. Helplessly, the old decay was thin, and he failed to inherit the incense of the Qu family, and his only son died in Huangquan before the old decay, with no children and no daughters, and no incense was left behind. Alas......"

Zuo Gui sighed and shook his head.

There is a saying in ancient times that "there are three unfilial pieties, and no queen is the greatest", there is no son to inherit the incense, which is the greatest sorrow, although the old lady Qu also has a granddaughter Bai Zhihan, but according to the ancient Zongao tradition, the granddaughter is a person who belongs to the son-in-law's family, is an outsider, not the Qu family, so it is not possible to inherit the incense. Old lady Qu's son died in prison without giving birth to a son and a half daughter. It can be said that the Qu family's incense has been cut off.

Old lady Qu paused, and then continued sadly: "Ling Lang once saved the life of the old man, and took Zhi'er as a slave, and he was generously given four buckets of grain to survive the famine. The old decay was unrequited, and he discussed it again and again with his family, anyway, this old mansion could not be passed down, so he decided to give this old mansion to Ling Lang! ”

Zuo Gui's family was surprised and delighted, Zuo Gui hurriedly said: "Don't dare to take this seriously, the dog is just doing his duty as a doctor, and it is not worth such a generous gift." ”

"Alas, if you want to say generous gifts, we owe your family too much, in order to save the old man and his wife, the virtuous couple took out a thousand-year-old ginseng worth thousands of gold, this ginseng, it is enough to buy two such houses. The price of the four buckets of grain that was given before is as high as sixty yuan, and all these things are not enough to make up for the gift of the virtuous couple. ”

Zuo Shaoyang interjected on the side: "That ginseng is a slave to Zhi'er. ”

Old lady Qu said lightly: "It's not worth it, a slave and maid, a few times the money is enough, this old ginseng is worth a thousand gold, and a thousand slaves and maids can buy it." ”

Zuo Shaoyang smiled and said, "A thousand slaves and maids are not as good as one Zhi'er." ”

Bai Zhihan's delicate body trembled slightly, and she raised her eyes to look at her, and two blushes appeared on her cheeks.
