Chapter Forty-Nine: The New City Lord
"I'm tired." Ruan Fei looked up to the sky and sighed, and said to the doctor, "We really don't have that kind of relationship. ”
Bai Changfeng lay on the bed to recuperate, heard Ruan Fei's conversation from a distance, hid in the quilt and giggled, Ruan Fei glanced at him, Liu Peiqing also echoed beside him, but the doctor still didn't believe it.
"I think you're so compatible, and you're so ......" intimate. The doctor cleared his throat and continued with the topic he had just discussed.
"I have limited conditions here, and it has taken a lot of medicinal materials to heal another friend of yours, and my ability is really not enough to repair this young man's meridians." The doctor sighed. The young man behaved very politely and with great affection. He was seriously wounded, and he carried his friends all the way to their small village.
When Ruan Fei heard this, her heart was pinched, and she asked the doctor: "Is there really no other way, he has a deep internal strength, and if he gives up like this, it may have an impact on the future." ”
In fact, these are all Ruan Fei's nonsense, she knows a little surgical knowledge at most, and the mysterious name of the meridians, she only began to understand it when she came here.
But it's certainly not a good thing to leave it alone.
Bai Changfeng, the psychic medium, is now sick in bed again, and when he escaped, he was in a hurry, and he didn't have time to bring his miscellaneous utensils.
The doctor looked at Ruan Fei's earnest eyes, and then looked at Liu Peiqing, who had been frowning, and didn't know whether to say it or not. Fortunately, at this time, his wife called out to him, and the doctor took the opportunity to go to the doctor.
Ruan Fei and the others now live in the doctor's private residence, which is separated from the doctor's place.
Not long after the doctor went out, he saw the old lady hurrying here, gesturing at them as she went. Ruan Fei also felt some aura approaching them at this time, and hurriedly called Liu Peiqing to hide.
Not far behind the old lady, there were two people dressed as guards of Tayun City. The two men checked around as they walked, slashing at anything with the knives in their hands. The old lady was distressed, her already wrinkled face was tangled together, and she inhaled hissing in her mouth, and she didn't dare to open her eyes.
The two guards were still very unkind, they were used to the pampered life in the city, and now they wanted to search these poor and clanging places outside the city, and they were really unwilling to do so.
A guard had enough of the old lady's expression and shouted at the old lady: "Is there no one else in your backyard!" With that, he rushed into several rooms in the backyard and began to rummage around, not caring what the old lady said. The underwear of the two old men, as well as the jewelry they had saved by frugality, were all flipped to the ground.
The guards didn't expect that this poor and sour medical hall could still get oil and water, and their eyes lit up all of a sudden.
"I didn't think you still had a baby?" I picked it up and put it in my arms. Not to be outdone, the guard next to him turned out some more silver, all of which went into their pockets.
The old lady was now ready to die, knelt on the ground and begged for mercy, hugging the guards' thighs and begging them to give herself and her wife a way to live. The arrogant and domineering guards didn't care about this, they were simply a group of bandits, kicked the old lady away, and walked into the next room.
This room looks like no one is occupied, and the beds are neatly made, so no one has ever slept in them. The old woman said that it was a temporary room for the seriously ill patients, and now that there are no patients, it is empty.
The guard touched the bed and found that it was still hot, and thought it was strange, why did it feel warm when no one slept? But when I touch it again, I don't feel it anymore.
Another guard came over and asked him what was wrong after checking it, and he also touched it by the way: "What's the temperature, do you want to invite merit and go crazy?" So Liu Peiqing under the bed quietly withdrew the Qingshuang knife.
There were no problems with the rest of the rooms, and the two guards walked around the courtyard and left.
Ruan Fei felt it and comforted the old lady: "Madam, don't worry, it's all because of us, how much your things are worth, I will pay you everything." ”
Unexpectedly, the old lady did not accept her kindness, shook her head, and said with a bit of gritted teeth: "Since the new city lord took office, we people in the small village have never had a few days of peace. ”
Liu Peiqing helped Bai Changfeng out from under the bed and came over.
It turned out that since An Jifeng succeeded as the city lord of Tayun City, he began to do some inexplicable things. First built strange statues in each street, and then demolished them, and tried to steal the library, but was accused by everyone. In the spring of this year, I heard that the library was renovated again, and after a few months, all the people on the street closest to the library were driven out, and they said that they were demon cults.
"He spent a lot of money on these things, right?"
"No, I'm angry when I talk about this!"
It cost a lot of money to build statues and repair the library, including the new street that was built, but the cultivation level of the new city lord was too high, and the city was full of low-level monks, and the high-level monks didn't want to care about their at all. In order to fill the financial loopholes, they often use various excuses to collect money from villages outside the city.
"We, the people in the small village, do hard work, earn very little, and we have to be looted by them, and we can't beat them, alas!"
Ruan Fei and the three of them also empathized with the means of stepping on Cloud City, and the four of them squatted in the courtyard and sighed. After the doctor dealt with other patients, he walked in and saw that the four of them were squatting together like playing mahjong, and the second monk was puzzled.
Ruan Fei finally returned a sufficient amount of silver, otherwise she really didn't want to go.
After the meal, the doctor listened to his wife talk about today's events, and also expressed his helplessness. Ruan Fei asked the doctor where those who had been kicked out of the city were living now.
The doctor didn't know what she was going to do, but he replied truthfully: "The time for the autumn harvest has passed, and those people can't find a job with us, so they have to buy some materials and go to the woods to the east for the winter." ”
"You're looking for them? But I should warn you that something is not right with their emotions, and they get angry from time to time, and they have injured several people while we were working here. ”
Ruan Fei nodded, reassuring the doctor that he had something else to do with them, and it was not a long-term relationship.
At night, Ruan Fei lay on the grass with aura burning in her hands. Ruan Fei was bored to let them change shapes, there were still some frogs and toads around them, the fireflies were already flooded by the damp and cold air, and they didn't dare to fly in the grass, and the moon in the sky was only a curved horn.
On Liu Peiqing's right was the Qingshuang Knife, and on the left was Ruan Fei, who looked up at the moon in the sky and didn't know what he was thinking.
