Chapter 66: The River God Token
"It's you?!"
"Why is he here?"
After the townspeople saw that it was Ning Qianqiu, they were shocked, and immediately discussed. Some of them were short-tempered, and they even rolled up their sleeves, wanting to step forward to teach Ning Qianqiu a lesson.
Jiang Shun hurriedly said loudly: "Everyone listen to me! My old Jiang guarantees with his life, Ning Gongzi will never be a villain, he is a great benefactor who has cured my family of three!"
Everyone looked at each other and was skeptical.
Seeing this, Ning Qianqiu sneered and said, "Uncle Jiang, it seems that these people don't believe in Ning. Well, you can send me off!"
After speaking, he ignored Jiang Shun's stunned gaze, returned to the courtyard, and slammed the courtyard door shut.
Li Chunjiao heard the movement, came out of the house, hesitated when she saw this, and asked, "Ning Gongzi, do you really not see a doctor for the villagers?"
Guo'er, who was playing with mud on the side, said angrily: "Mother, they don't believe in big brothers, why do they want to treat them?"
Li Chunjiao was stunned.
Ning Qianqiu smiled and said, "Aunt Chunjiao, don't worry, someone will come in after a while." ”
There was a noise outside the house, and the excited townspeople seemed to be asking Jiang Shun something, and Jiang Shun was in a hurry. After a long time, the movement gradually became smaller, and after a while, the courtyard door creaked open, and Jiang Shun walked into the courtyard with the mayor and came to Ning Qianqiu's side.
Jiang Shun said a little nervously: "Young Master Ning, Mayor Huang wants to tell you something......
Ning Qianqiu nodded.
Jiang Shun breathed a sigh of relief, as if he was afraid that Ning Qianqiu would refuse because of what happened that day. He moved a stool for the frail mayor to sit down, and sat down beside him.
The mayor of the town was silent for a while, and sighed: "Young Master Ning, the old decay doesn't say secret words, to this day, the real culprit who killed my daughter has not been found, and the old man is honest, and he still has some doubts about you." However, today's old decay does not come for personal grievances, but wants to ask for the lives of the people of the town, if you ......"
Jiang Shun listened anxiously on the side.
Is the mayor of the town confused, what does it mean to "still be a little suspicious of you"? You say that, is Ning Qianqiu willing to treat the townspeople?
The mayor took a deep breath, got up with his crutches, and arched his hand: "If you are a young man, you can really cure the plague, old and decayed...... I can't thank you enough!"
Ning Qianqiu listened quietly, his expression was unwavering, and he didn't know what he was thinking.
The mayor's words were beyond his expectations, and he made his words clear, but his words were extremely sincere, and there was a clear distinction between public and private, so that there was no reason to refuse.
But rather Qianqiu wanted to refuse.
"Why should I treat you?" Ning Qianqiu asked.
This sentence silenced the mayor.
Indeed, the scene of gathering people to attack Ning Qianqiu that day is still vivid. Now what reason does Ning Qianqiu have to treat the town?
"My medicine is not blown by the wind, take the money to buy it, otherwise, don't talk about it. Ning Qianqiu said coldly.
The atmosphere suddenly cooled down.
The mayor looked ugly, thought for a long time, and sighed: "Young Master Ning, you should know, Yuan ...... The one surnamed Yuan has defrauded almost all the money in the town, I'll wait...... Well, the old man went out to discuss with them......"
The mayor coughed a few times, slowly got up, and walked out, his back was so desolate.
The mayor walked to the door pitifully, and seeing that Ning Qianqiu still didn't mean to change his words, his heart suddenly sank, sighed, and pushed the door out.
In the yard.
Ning Qianqiu hung his head and was silent.
Jiang Shun's expression changed, but he didn't say anything.
Although most of the money in the town was cheated out by the young man surnamed Yuan, there was still some left, even if it was all given to Ning Qianqiu, the townspeople would not starve to death with their backs to the fertile Shunjiang River.
Jiang Shun knows this, and Ning Qianqiu also knows it.
Dou Mien, Shengmi hatred.
Sometimes giving too much is not a good thing.
According to the urine nature of these people, if Ning Qianqiu treats them for free, there will be some trouble.
What's more, how can the events of that day be counted?
must teach these people a lesson, otherwise he would rather Qianqiu, what has become of him?
After the mayor went out, I don't know what he said, the crowd was in an uproar, and the buzzing discussion was very noisy, and it seemed that there were still a few people who were excited and arguing loudly with the mayor.
Jiang Shun listened for a while, frowned, and said in a low voice: "Young Master Ning, the mayor said that he would take the Shun Shui Zhu from the town and exchange the medicine with you." ”
Ning Qianqiu was stunned: "Shun Shuizhu?"
Jiang Shun explained: "Shun Shuizhu was fished up from the Shunjiang River by the ancestors of the town, saying that it is a token of the river god, it is very miraculous, and it has been enshrined in the Dragon King Temple, and the people in the town have been blessed to live and work in peace and contentment for so many years!"
Ning Qianqiu couldn't cry or laugh after hearing this.
You have such a miraculous treasure to bless you, why do you want me to treat you?
He made up his mind that if the river god token was a useless waste, he would never agree to the mayor's request.
But he didn't say this to Jiang Shun.
Looking at Jiang Shun's reluctant appearance, he is undoubtedly a devout believer in the river god.
It was a long time before the mayor knocked on the courtyard door.
The mayor came to the front and took out a delicate box wrapped in red silk from his arms, he stroked the lid of the box, and a look of hesitation flashed in his eyes, but soon he gritted his teeth, opened the lid of the box, pushed the box in front of Ning Qianqiu, and said: "Ning Gongzi, this is the treasure of this town, the token of Lord River God, I am willing to dedicate it to Gongzi, I hope Gongzi can cure this plague for the people of the town!"
Ning Qianqiu lazily glanced at the things in the box, and he suddenly sat up straight, and the shocked expression on his face flashed.
The mayor was stunned, but before he could say anything, Ning Qianqiu's palm brushed it, and the box on the table suddenly disappeared!
"The deal was negotiated. ”
Ning Qianqiu took out the medicine that had been prepared a long time ago, put it on the table, and said, "Here is a dose of fifty servings, you take it for the most seriously ill person first, and the rest, come and get it tomorrow!"
After speaking, Ning Qianqiu returned to the house without looking back.
Behind him, the mayor looked at the medicine, and then at Ning Qianqiu's back, surprised, but also a little regretful.
Looking at Ning Qianqiu's appearance, the river god token must be a real treasure!
But now that the medicine is in hand, what else can I say?
The mayor's eyes flickered for a long time, and he and Jiang Shun glanced at each other, and they both smiled bitterly.
......
Silent in the room.
Ning Qianqiu sat on the edge of the bed and carefully examined the beads in his palm, which were the so-called Shunshui beads.
This bead is golden in color, and its appearance is somewhat like a solid elixir, but it is much larger, and its appearance is full of wind and frost cracks, and it seems to be old.
The reason why Ning Qianqiu decided to accept this bead was that when he saw this bead, the nameless flame in his body became agitated for some reason!
This made Ning Qianqiu stunned, but also a little surprised.
The origin of the Nameless Flame has always been a mystery he wants to figure out!
He had a faint premonition that this bead must have some kind of connection with the nameless flame in his body!
