The mountain is getting steeper and steeper, and there are four attendants carrying the pole in turn, but they are still tired and sweaty.

Chu Junlan sat quietly on the sliding pole, observing the villages and trees along the way, silently remembering the terrain and the routes to go everywhere.

Soon, the group came to the door of a spacious manor next to the "Immortal Bridge".

"Miss Chu, please take care of your step." The inner servant shrimp lowered his head and helped Chu Junlan to get off the sliding rod.

This is already the top of the mountain, and more than 100 steps up is the "fairy bridge".

A cliff sticks out of the mountain, and in the mist, the first step of the "fairy bridge" leading to the "other side" can be faintly seen, as if the immortal went to the other bank and left only the first footprint, but the second and third steps were covered by the thick fog.

"Miss Chu, please."

"Thank you, father-in-law."

Chu Junlan retracted his gaze and followed the waiter all the way into the villa.

The building here is simple and atmospheric, without the delicacy of the carved gallery and painting, and everywhere is full of the freshness and steadfastness of the farmhouse.

Chu Junlan was introduced into a courtyard deep in the villa, and the attendants all retreated.

Chu Junlan looked behind him, then at the hall with the door open, and smiled.

If it comes, it will be safe, no matter what Old Patriarch Xiao plans to deal with, she will bear it!

Thinking like this, Chu Junlan walked into the house with dashing steps.

However, the hall was not as Longtan Tiger's Den as she imagined, there was no Old Patriarch Xiao who was on a posture to interrogate her, and there were no objects such as whips and soldering irons that used the death penalty, this was just an ordinary front hall for entertaining guests.

An elderly eunuch in a dark green sunflower shirt with two little chamberlains saluted her with a smile: "Miss Chu is well, the slave and maid are Fugui, she is serving by the old patriarch's side, and she is here to greet her at the orders of the old patriarch." ”

"Father-in-law Fu." Chu Junlan hurriedly smiled and saluted.

"Oh, don't dare to be, don't dare to be. It's just a privilege to serve the old patriarch. I can't afford you to call your father-in-law," Fugui said with a smile on his face, "Miss Chu, please take a seat, the old patriarch is busy, and he is ordering the slave maid to welcome you, this time I invite you to come up the mountain, in fact, there is a patient who wants to ask you to help." ”

Chu Junlan's face remained unchanged, but he was very surprised in his heart.

At this juncture, Old Patriarch Xiao did not meddle in the affairs of the Auxiliary General's Mansion, and came to her not to vent his anger to the clan, but to let her treat people?

This is really food for thought.

"It is the duty of a doctor to heal the sick and save people. Old Patriarch Xiao is willing to trust the little girl, which is the honor of the little girl. May I ask Grandpa Fu, where is the patient now? ”

"Right here, please also invite Miss Chu to come with the slave."

Fugui leaned sideways and made a gesture of please, leading Chu Junlan to the side.

The side room is very spacious, and there is a bed of warm kang near the window, and there is a person lying flat on the kang at this time.

Chu Junlan was just about to step forward to check, when he saw Fugui and the two accompanying chamberlains stopping at the door, and said with a smile: "Miss Chu, the commonly used medicinal materials in the Zhuangzi have been prepared, you just have to prescribe the prescription and ask someone to grab the medicine and boil the medicine, the old patriarch instructed, please leave a detailed medical case." ”

Chu Junlan stopped suspiciously, and looked back at Fugui and the other three.

Fugui was still smiling: "In addition, Miss Chu's residence is in the wing. On weekdays, there are few people walking around in this village, and there are naturally no people playing around in the imperial village. Please Miss Chu don't wander around until you heal the patient, your daily meals will be brought to you regularly. ”

Fugui said that he bowed, then turned around and strode away. The remaining two little chamberlains stood at the door one on the left and one on the right, blocking Chu Junlan's way.

Chu Junlan was silent for a moment, already sensing that something was wrong.

Fugui and the two attendants seemed to be very afraid of the sick on the kang.

And listening to Fugui's meaning, she is under house arrest in this Zhuangzi, if she can't cure the patient, she won't be let go down the mountain?

Chu Junlan stepped forward slowly, took out a handkerchief to cover his mouth and nose, and lifted the patient's thin quilt.

When she saw the patient clearly, her pupils suddenly constricted.

The patient was a middle-aged man with a black-blue skin on his exposed face and hands, and cracked skin lines could be clearly seen.

Chu Junlan padd his hands with a handkerchief, checked the person's skin, checked his eyes, checked the pulse, and then ordered the two attendants behind him: "Fetch the silver needle." ”

"Yes."

One of them rushed out, and in a short time brought the medical kit over.

Chu Junlan took out the silver needle, and tried to drop the needle at several acupuncture points on this person's body, only to see that the silver needle turned black, and the patient who was pricked with the needle struggled uneasily, and suddenly opened a pair of blood-red eyes, looking very violent.

"Yikes!" The two little chamberlains were obviously caught in the fire, and they all exclaimed in surprise.

Chu Junlan made a move like lightning, and quickly took a few stitches, and the person was as stiff as a stone and couldn't move.

Chu Junlan called two chamberlains to the outer room.

"Who else have been in contact with a patient?"

"Back to the girl, the slaves and maids have not been in contact, and as for the rest, the slaves and maids don't know."

Chu Junlan hesitated for a moment and said: "You go and tell Gonggong Fu that this person is suffering from 'raven disease', the sick person is full of anti-poison, the skin is blue and black and purulent, and he will gradually lose his mind in mania, and he is very aggressive towards people. ”

The faces of the two little chamberlains turned pale with fright, and one of them quickly turned around and ran: "The slave maid immediately go and tell Gonggong Fu!" ”

Fugui came quickly, and his attitude was a little more respectful than just now: "Miss Chu is really well-informed, and she actually knows the disease of the raven." ”

"I also saw it by chance in ancient books." Seen in a previous life, of course.

Fugui smiled and narrowed his eyes, making it impossible to see his expression clearly: "Miss Chu, the old patriarch has ordered, as long as you can cure this person, the old patriarch will be grateful, and as for the rest of the irrelevant matters, the old patriarch can also give you the decision." ”

Chu Junlan raised his eyebrows and smiled: "It seems that the patient is very important to the old patriarch. ”

Fugui smiled but did not speak.

Chu Junlan nodded and agreed, "Okay, I'll try my best, and ask Gonggong Fu to leave two people to help me." ”

"It's nature."

Although Chu Junlan has never treated this disease, she can fix the patient with a silver needle, which reduces the chance of her infection, and the rest only needs to be bold and carefully verified.

In the next few days, Chu Junlan devoted himself to healing the sick.

A day passed, and the patient regained his senses.

After another day, the black poison on his skin gradually faded, and the cracks healed.

After another two days, all the black color on the patient's body has disappeared, and the pupils have returned to normal.

In the evening, Chu Junlan stood in front of the open window of the wing room and stretched her waist, in order to be able to go down the mountain as soon as possible, these days can make her tired, in order to save time for grooming and dressing, she even only wore a dark blue fine cotton short brown found in the Zhuangzi, and her hair was tied in a man's bun.

was about to cover his mouth and yawn, but Chu Junlan suddenly saw two familiar figures, who were sneakily going to the miscellaneous forest behind Zhuangzi, and the figures were soon hidden in the forest dyed red by the slanting sun.

Chu Junlan frowned slightly, immediately closed the door of his bedroom, jumped out of the window, and quietly followed.
