Chapter 144: Military rations are burned

Zuo Shaoyang was taken aback: "What's the matter?" ”

"Just yesterday, we came back from Suizhou, and we have reached the boundary of Hezhou, thinking that this is safe, because I heard that there are rebels in Suizhou. On the way, I also encountered a large group of officers and soldiers passing by, and I couldn't see the end at a glance, and there were countless grains and grasses behind them. We followed the officers and soldiers, thinking that it would be safe to follow the officers and soldiers, but on the contrary, at the Long Snake Pass, we suddenly heard the sound of a horn, and countless rebels were killed in all directions. I quickly pulled my mother and younger siblings and fled off the road, hiding in a crack in the rocks. The shouting of killing shook the sky. When I looked out through the crack in the rock, I saw countless rebels rushing down the hillside, all holding torches, and igniting the grain and grass of the officers and soldiers, like a fiery dragon, stretching for miles! ”

"What about the officers and soldiers? Why didn't the officers and soldiers resist? ”

"How can you resist? There were cliffs on both sides of the Long Snake Pass, and the officers and soldiers in front had no time to turn back to rescue, and those rebels concentrated in the rear of the officers and soldiers, burning grain and grass and carrying heavy loads, and ran away when they lit it. By the time the officers and soldiers in front turned around, the rebels had already run away. There is no water in the long snake pass, and it can't be saved. The officers and soldiers stared at each other, and there was nothing to do. All the grain and grass were burned. I took my mother and younger siblings and didn't dare to follow the officers and soldiers anymore, for fear of provoking fire, so I climbed up the mountain and walked along the ridge. We walked into the afternoon, and when we looked back, we could still see the red and thick smoke billowing out! ”

Zuo Shaoyang's heart sank: "The rebels burned the grain and grass of the officers and soldiers, and the officers and soldiers couldn't last long, our Hezhou was already short of food, and the stored grain was not enough for them to eat." ”

"Yes, presumably the traitors also had this idea, so they burned grain and grass. - By the way, just now I went to Washi to sell medicinal herbs, and when I passed by the yamen of the state capital, I saw a lot of soldiers, all wearing heavy armor, and the war horses they rode were also wearing armor, and their swords were bright. I hadn't had such a big battle before. ”

Zuo Shaoyang hasn't been there for a few days, he doesn't know these situations, and when he heard this, he couldn't help but feel even heavier.

The two chatted for a while, and Miao Peilan said goodbye and went out of the city with a basket on her back to Laohuai Village.

Zuo Shaoyang got out of the county office with a heavy heart, turned the corner, and saw a few people on the side of the road looking at a piece of white paper posted on the pillar of the shop on the street, and pointing and discussing. I couldn't help but be a little curious, and I went over to take a look.

An old man beside him saw him and said happily: "Yo, isn't this the little Langzhong of Guizhitang?" Hehe, can you Guizhitang really cure a stroke with such cheap medicine? ”

Zuo Shaoyang was stunned for a moment: "Yes, how do you know about the old man?" ”

The old man said to Nunu on the wall: "Oh, isn't it all written on it?" ”

When the others heard this, they also looked back at him and talked about it.

Zuo Shaoyang didn't care about listening to what they said, and looked at the paper pasted on the wall, only to see that it was written:

"I am Li from Laohuai Village, a few days ago I had a stroke, I was seriously ill and dying, and I found a pharmacy and clinic in the city, because my family was poor and could not afford the expensive medicine needed to treat the stroke, so I was unwilling to treat me, so I had to wait for death. After being instructed, I went to Guizhitang to find Zuo Lang Chinese medicine. Zuo Langzhong only used a few dozen dollars of medicine in total, and I was cured of my stroke.

I am very grateful to Guizhitang, because I have no money to express my gratitude, so I posted a notice to express my gratitude to Guizhitang for saving his life, I wish you all the fathers and villagers a safe life, no illness and no disaster, but, people have good fortune and misfortune, the moon is cloudy and sunny, if any villager is as unfortunate as I have a stroke, it is best to go to Guizhitang to find Zuo Lang Chinese medicine for treatment, not only the cost of medicine is cheap, but also the medicine to get rid of the disease.

I am now basically cured of my stroke, and I can work in the fields, and now I am helping people wash clothes at the construction site in the water area outside the county, and I live in a shack. If you need to find out, you can come to me in the shed and ask for it. The above sentences are true, if there is half a lie, the sky will hit five thunders! ”

The inscription reads Lao Huai Village Li's, and it is also stamped with a bright red handprint.

Zuo Shaoyang smiled, thinking that this Aunt Li is real, and she is still here, the crops are sincere, and she has no money to thank her, so she uses this method to promote Guizhitang, which is really simple.

Zuo Shaoyang saw that the onlookers were looking at him kindly, with some admiration in his eyes, he hurriedly smiled and bowed his hand, and walked home with his hands behind his back.

Along the way, I saw several such notices, and it seemed that Aunt Li's family had copied a lot of these notices and posted them all over the city.

Zuo Shaoyang returned to the pharmacy, Zuo Shaoyang told his father Zuo Gui about what he saw on the road, and Zuo Gui was also a little funny. But in the end, it is the patient's appreciation, which is equivalent to the modern pennant, and this kind of spiritual reward is still very pleasant.

Originally, Qian County's order to Guizhitang was to see Zuo Shaoyang treat the disease with an overdose of attached tablets to verify that the overdose of aconitum can not be poisoned, but seven and eight transmissions, it was passed on to the county order that the adult was sick when he tried the case, and the Qian County Order only looked at Huimin Hall, but the matter of Huimin Tang's Ni Er's shopkeeper made Qian County Order very angry, so he changed to Guizhi Tang's Zuo Langzhong to treat the disease, and came to Guizhi Hall in a sedan chair to see the disease. After looking at it all morning, I finally got better.

After this rumor broke out, coupled with the notices posted everywhere by Aunt Li that Guizhitang could cure a stroke with very cheap medicine, many people came to Guizhitang to see the excitement, even if they didn't come in to see a doctor, they also wanted to see what this Lang Zhong who treated the county lord looked like. Of course, there are also those who are sick in their own bodies, so they will come in and let them see. So this afternoon, Zuo Gui looked at ** patients, there were a lot more than before, and they were all colds and other diseases that he was better at, so he was naturally very happy.

In the evening, Zuo Gui was seeing a doctor, and noisy footsteps sounded outside the door, and an old woman ran in in a panic: "Zuo Langzhong!" Our master is sick, please take a look! ”

Zuo Gui looked up and said, "It's Aunt Long, what about your master?" ”

"Helped me over!"

Outside the door, an old woman, a middle-aged woman, and a young woman slowly walked in with an old man.

Zuo Shaoyang raised his eyes to see the young woman, and couldn't help but be stunned.

This woman is twenty-eight years old, with slightly slanted temples and a hosta. The two strands of black green silk on the sideburns hang down, the long hair is draped over the vest, tied with a snow-white ribbon, the curvaceous melon seed face, and the white and red skin are like ripe peaches, as if they can be wrung out of water. A pair of extremely glamorous Danfeng eyes with slightly upturned eyes, eyebrows flying obliquely, a high nose bridge, like carved white jade, a little red lips, soft and ruddy, under the bright neck, the beauty bones on both sides draw two elegant curves, divided to both sides, and disappear into the snow-white wide-sleeved saro shirt on the upper body.

Under the neck, in the shirt with the placket low, a snow-white bandeau embroidered with lace crossed, covering the pair of towering breast peaks, only revealing a few shallow grooves, which makes people infinitely reverie. A snow-white belt strangled the thin bee waist, making the already towering twin peaks even more curvy. A shawl of water thin smoke gauze wraps around the back neck and is wrapped around the fragrant shoulders and coiled between the arms, looking dignified and elegant. A pleated long skirt in the same snow-white, tied high under the chest, the length of the skirt covered all the way to the shoes.

The shirts, bandeau and long skirts are all trimmed with silver wire, embroidered with beautiful patterns, complicated and beautiful, and the handiwork is extremely exquisite.

This girl is snow-white, like a white lotus blooming in a pond of smoke and rain, delicate and dusty, curling Nana, and like the misty white mist between the mountains in the morning, elegant as a snowy peak that cannot be looked upon, beautiful and incomprehensible, let people see it, and they are reluctant to turn their eyes away.

However, this fairy-like beautiful girl has a frosty face, especially a pair of eyes, which are as cold as a knife, Zuo Shaoyang felt uncomfortable, so he just glanced at it and lowered his head.

Zuo Gui's father hurriedly stepped forward to help the old man lie down on the small bed.

Zuo Shaoyang saw that his father Zuo Gui seemed to know these people, so he hurriedly asked his mother Liang in a low voice: "Mother, who are they?" ”

Liang knew that his son had amnesia and had forgotten many things, so he said in a low voice: "It's Master Qu in the old house next door, and it's the Beijing official who told the old man to return to his hometown." The old woman was his wife. The two of them had a son who was injured and imprisoned. The weeping woman was the daughter-in-law of the old lady Qu. The previous Aunt Long was the nurse of the young master of the Qu family when he was a child. The Qu family also has a daughter, married to the Bai family, and gave birth to a daughter, which is the girl in the white dress, the granddaughter of the old lady Qu, named Bai Zhihan. I heard that her parents died and she had no relatives to take care of her, so she came back to her grandparents, which was really pitiful. ”

Zuo Shaoyang couldn't imagine that there was such a fairy-like girl living in the courtyard of the deep house next door, and he couldn't help but sigh.

After Zuo Gui asked the old man to lie down, he asked, "What's wrong with Old Lady Qu?" ”

Old lady Qu was speechless, and looked at him blankly. The old lady Qu next to her wept and said: "I got up early today, and the old man said that he was very flustered, his chest was tight, and he was nauseous, he drank a bowl of porridge, and he vomited just now, and then he sweated profusely as if he was fished out of the water, and he had no strength on the left side, and he couldn't speak clearly." We were worried about whether it was a stroke, and we were supposed to send it to Huimin Hall, but Huimin Hall was closed, so we sent it to you. ”

The crying Mrs. Qu was afraid that Zuo Gui would be unhappy when she heard it, so she hurriedly added: "Going to Huimin Hall is just a rush to go to the doctor, how can they have Zuo Langzhong's medical skills, you are so smart, I saw a person named Aunt Li on the road, posted a notice on the side of the road, saying that she had a stroke and almost died, because there was no money to pay for the medicine, many pharmacies refused to treat it, it was you Guizhitang who cured the disease, and the medicine was very cheap, so we begged to come to the door......"

Zuo Gui stroked his beard and thought to himself, the notice posted by Aunt Li is really effective, the patient will come to the door when he knows about it, it seems that Guizhitang's treatment of stroke in the future can be used as a stunt, and asked: "How about the second poop of Old Lady Qu?" ”

Mrs. Qu replied: "I defecated twice in the morning, it was thin, and I defended my urine once, so it's fine." It's just that the left side of the body can't be strengthened, Zuo Langzhong, did our master have a stroke? ”

Zuo Gui stroked his beard and didn't answer, and turned his head to look at Zuo Shaoyang: "Zhong'er, you can also take a look." ”
