Chapter 43: Healing (II)
At dawn, a gorgeous carriage drove on the empty street, knocking on the doors of the closed pharmacies, and a young girl jumped out of the car, took out a medicine list and handed it to the sleepy-eyed shopkeepers.
"The above four flavor medicines, as many as you want, the price is doubled."
The shopkeeper took the medicine list and looked at it carefully, "Dandelion, ground li, banyan root, skullcap...... These are all heat-clearing and detoxifying medicines, and the inventory is still enough, but in winter, it is not convenient to replenish the stock, so it can't all be given to Miss. ”
The family behind him stepped forward and scolded, "Do you know which nobleman this is?" Do you dare not give! ”
Bu Tong smiled, and didn't want to waste too much time, took out the royal gold medal, the shopkeeper's legs were weak and he was about to kneel, Bu Tong smiled and threw him a piece of gold,
"In the big event of fighting the epidemic, please ask the shopkeeper to help, and I will definitely not treat you badly."
……
Bags of medicinal herbs were carried to the carriage, and Bu Tong sat on the edge of the full carriage, muttering with his fingers,
"The main ingredient of Pudilan Oral Liquid is these four flavor medicines? What else ......?"
Thinking of something, Bu Tong instructed a family member,
"Go to the house and lead another carriage, and buy a cart of mung beans to follow me."
Now it's time to boil the soup.
The refugee camp outside the city really looked like a miserable defeat, the people's faces were like ashes, and the people of Kyoto Prefecture had long since fled without a trace, and only a group of brocade guards looked like they wanted to be generous and righteous to maintain order.
Seeing Butong coming, everyone looked forward to seeing hope, and the mask on the back side of the carriage was taken out first.
"Two per person, divide them and bring them first."
Looking left and right that there was no figure of Tang Xuanlin, Bu Tong looked around and there was no familiar person, so he had to raise his head and shout,
"Suzaku."
As expected, a dark shadow immediately appeared behind him. "What does Miss Bu command?"
Butong breathed a sigh of relief,
"Fortunately, you are here, in this way, arrange for the medical officer to screen all the victims, and arrange for those with fever or acne symptoms to live alone in the downwind, I brought ......"
Before she finished speaking, a man jumped out to interrupt her, and the hideous appearance of the whole person was about to tear apart and roared,
"See, the people who came down from above are going to kill us, and she's going to pick us out and kill us! lest you infect the nobles in Kyoto City. It must be, it must be so! ”
The speech was a little big, the scarf slipped down to reveal the blisters on the face, faintly festering and inflamed, and raised his arms and shouted to a few people around him, "Staying here must be a death, it is better for us to flee into the city than to be slaughtered here!" ”
Saying that, five or six young people pounced, Suzaku reached out to hold the knife, and Bu Tong hurriedly stopped it,
"Suzaku, don't hurt them, just stop them."
Suzaku could only go up with his bare hands, Bu Tong watched the man who spoke and rushed straight to him, and Suzaku couldn't care about the other three at all, and his heart was not good, I was afraid that he couldn't dodge this punch.
Angry and angry, these people, can they be regarded as doctors? Whether it's modern or ancient, there's really nothing you can do with them.
The man's fist didn't fall, a black shadow blocked in front of Butong, the man couldn't dodge, the two almost collided together, Tang Xuanlin stunned him with a palm, "Take it away, watch it alone." ”
Bu Tong looked at the blood stain on Tang Xuanlin's chin, and anxiously pulled a handkerchief to wipe it,
"Are you hurt?"
Tang Xuanlin's face was stunned, he reached out to take the silk handkerchief without letting Bu Tong touch him, and wiped it a few times, and Bu Tong realized that it was the blister on the man's face that burst and splashed on Tang Xuanlin.
I'm afraid it's contagious.
Bu Tong hurriedly commanded the family members to move the medicinal herbs down, and instructed the Jinyi guard,
"Set up three fires for me, boil hot water, and I want to decoction!"
……
The medicinal herbs were poured into the pot in proportion, Bu Tong pinched a long spoon around the apron and stirred it on the side of the pot, the whole camp was full of medicinal fragrance, a person dressed as a guard came over with firewood to add fire, and laughed at Bu Tong's appearance,
"Miss Bu, you really look like a chef who has just entered the industry."
Bu Tong touched the beads of sweat on his forehead, and looked carefully at the half of his face with a mask,
"Brother Left Bank, you don't want to help in the Imperial Front Camp, what are you doing here to Jinyiwei?"
The left bank changed a cauldron and continued to add a few pieces of firewood,
"You conscienceless little girl, didn't I come to help?"
Bu Tong pinched the big spoon and stirred the medicinal herbs in the cauldron to prevent frying, "Then thank you to Brother Left Bank." ”
The second carriage from the Nanguo Mansion arrived, and Bu Tong took a look, "Brother Left Bank, I have to work hard for you to help get some mung beans." ”
Left Bank looked at the third pot of boiling water, "Are you going to cook mung bean soup?" ”
Bu Tong nodded, "When the mung bean soup is cooked, it will be distributed to the refugees who have no symptoms, so as to warm up their bodies, and these medicines are only given to those who have symptoms." ”
Left Bank nodded, patted the ash on his hand and went to carry the mung bean.
Bu Tong boiled the medicine in his hand, little by little from turbid to transparent, the taste began to have a hint of sweetness, clapped his hands and finally smiled,
"It's done, come and fill the pot and give the patients medicine."
Suzaku stood behind Bu Tong at some point, "Miss Bu." ”
Bu Tong, who was holding a big spoon to fill the medicine in the filter funnel, turned around, "Suzaku, why are you like the one that came out of the ground, what's wrong?" ”
Before Suzaku could speak, the left bank came over with a bag of mung beans and shouted loudly, "Ah Tong, the person who almost hurt you just now is fighting with the medical officer, and he looks like he is about to escape." ”
Butong gritted his teeth, "I really am, annoying these people!" ”
After that, he took a pot of medicine and took it over, "When he is better, see if I don't clean him up!" ”
Suzaku glared at Left Bank again and again, and Left Bank silently shrank his head and went to cook soup.
On the north side of the camp, there was chaos, and the patients were incited to resist, as if they were sworn to break out of control and enter Kyoto City.
Bu Tong approached, and it happened that a medical officer fell down in the push, and hurriedly stepped forward to help, "I think the world cherishes my life, it turns out that it is not, but you don't want to live, right?" ”
The man in the lead seemed to have just woken up, and he was a little staggering due to a fever, but he was still holding on, "How can you people who are high up care about our life and death? Aren't we people fighting for a cheap life to find a way for ourselves? ”
Butong stepped forward with his own medicine pot,
"I'm also a man when I hear this, but I have to enter Kyoto so disregarding the overall situation, what are you doing in Kyoto City? Spreading the pox to the people of Kyoto City? They are as diligent as you, and it is difficult to find a doctor if they are sick, so let everyone camp here just so that it will not spread out again, and treat it well, and this is the medicine for you. ”
"You're lying!" The man's eyes are red, which is a symptom of a high fever and a long run without a good rest,
"It's poison! You're going to kill us! If you put it nicely, if you trap us here, the nobles of Kyoto Castle will rest easy! ”
Bu Tong was wrong, the ancient medical troubles were more ruthless than the modern ones.
Suddenly, a hand reached over, poured out a bowl of brown medicinal juice, and sent it into thin lips in front of everyone's eyes, Tang Xuanlin reached out to wipe the remaining medicinal juice from the corner of his mouth,
"Now that you are going to the city, it is a dead end, and you can only believe in us as a way to live."
Bu Tong looked at Tang Xuanlin's expression was a little wrong, and reached out to probe his forehead, his hot hands were burning, and he was shocked.
"Xuanlin, do you have a fever?"
Suzaku approached, "I was about to inform Miss Bu, but Miss Bu was anxious about this refugee, so she didn't have time to ......."
The people who made trouble looked at each other, and several emotions of shock, doubt, regret, and disbelief appeared on their faces at the same time, "You guys, are you really trying to save us?" ”
Bu Tong no longer had patience, and sharply ordered the brocade guard beside him,
"Remove the medical officer, give medicine to all the patients, and the other refugees are not allowed to stop the mung bean soup four times a day," he glared back at the troublemaker, "those who don't drink medicine will also be poured into it if they break their teeth, and I want them to see if this is poison!" ”
……
In Tang Xuanlin's tent, Bu Tong carefully cooled a bowl of medicine and sent it to Tang Xuanlin's mouth, "Come, open your mouth." ”
Tang Xuanlin, who was forced to rest, leaned on the side of the simple bed, looking at Butong's cautious appearance and smiling,
"Tong'er, I'm not very unwell, there are still a lot of things outside, I ......"
Bu Tong poured a spoonful of medicine directly into it and interrupted him, "You just want to rest now, there are still so many people outside, and there is me." ”
Suzaku on the side rarely took the initiative to speak, "Overseer, what Miss Bu said is, you better have a good rest, the medical officers don't dare to stop boiling medicine and mung bean soup for a moment, everything is stable, you don't have to worry." ”
Bu Tong looked back in surprise, "It's really unexpected that you said so many things today." ”
Tang Xuanlin smiled,
"Today's surprise is not only Suzaku."
Bu Tong knew that he was talking about himself, but Fang Cai's actions were too much and heroic......
"That's not because I'm worried about you, I'm in a hurry." Bu Tong lowered his head and looked at Tang Xuanlin's appearance that stiffened instantly, only then did he realize that there was someone behind him, Bu Tong's old face turned red, and he instantly returned to the old god on the ground.
"Suzaku, don't you really think you shouldn't be here at this time?"
Suzaku was silent for a moment, "Then retreat." ”
There was no one in an instant, Bu Tong pouted and turned his head, facing Tang Xuanlin's smiling and bright eyes, "Don't make fun of him." ”
Bu Tong tilted his head in agreement, and continued to feed the medicine in a long voice, "Come on...... Open your mouth ......"
Tang Xuanlin bit his lip secretly, and suddenly his eyes flashed to reveal half cunning,
"Wouldn't I have half a day off?"
Butong nodded, "Yes." ”
Tang Xuanlin looked at the sky, "Then can we finish what we didn't do yesterday?" ”
Unfinished business?
Bu Tong instantly remembered that he was under the Qifeng Bridge and tried to despise others......
Look, look, come and settle accounts after the fall.
I had to pretend to be stupid and shook my head, "What's the matter?" I don't remember, by the way, the mung bean soup has to be boiled thinly, I'll go out and have a look, you can rest here. ”
After speaking, he shoved the medicine bowl into Tang Xuanlin's hand, and a certain cheeky person quickly escaped......
