The master and Wei San exchanged the wild boar for Chicheng, and Sixi stayed at home to dry herbs, but this time he couldn't eat the cake in the end, because since the holy decree came down, Chicheng is on strengthened vigilance, but the villages around Chicheng have suffered, and there are often horse thieves who patronize, and the better thing is to only grab things and not hurt people, but there are also hurts, and the most worthless thing in troubled times is human life. The master and Wei San met the horse thief, the money just exchanged was robbed, the cake was also trampled, Wei San had a conflict with the horse thief and was almost killed, and was rescued by a team of officers and soldiers who came to collect grain, so Wei San lay at home for more than half a month before he could get out of bed.

The first thing Wei San said when he woke up and saw Si Xi was: "Niu, my brother is useless, I didn't bring you back the cake, next time my brother will definitely bring you back the cake to eat." ”

"Well, I believe in you, but you have to remember that money is something outside the body, just give it to them in this situation, I hope you are all safe, otherwise I won't eat cakes, you don't have to be so stupid in the future, you know?"

"Niu, my brother can't let me, the master is behind me, I can't let ......" Si Xi's heart was sour, in the face of danger, it was his responsibility to let him fight hard regardless of his own safety! For this reason, she took care of Wei San carefully.

The days passed like this, and the world outside was in chaos, and the flames of war were raging.

There is still half a month before Lan Niu's birthday, that is to say, there is still half a month before Tu Village, Si Xi thought about thinking about finding a way to let the master and Wei San avoid this point, and it is best to let the villagers avoid it together, but because she is small, that is, no one believes it, and people in this era regard the land as more important than life, and it is more difficult to say that it is more difficult to give up their fields and stay away from their hometowns than to ascend to the sky.

Wei San's injuries were almost healed, he knelt in front of his master, "Master, please forgive the apprentice for being unfilial, in this troubled world, practicing medicine to save people can save a few, I want to be a soldier to fight, and return the world to a peaceful world, not to mention that the most important thing for me is to protect you and Niu." But as long as it's troubled times, I can't protect you, and now I can't even protect my money, and I can't protect the cakes for girls, and I can only do it if I end all this. One day as a teacher and a father for life, I identify you, although I am not studying medicine with you, but no matter where I am or what I am doing, I remember you, please allow me to join the army! When he had finished speaking, he hung his head on the ground and did not get up.

"You kid, what do you take to return the world to the world? Take the pharmacology book I memorized for you? There is a shortage of soldiers outside, how can you solve it alone, the armies that fight are well-trained, what do you use to fight with others, with your brute strength? You're just giving your life in vain and breaking our hearts. I don't allow you to go, you were only 5 years old when your parents entrusted you to me before they died, you were just enlightened, I also counted a handful of and urine to pull you up, our family and country morality as doctors is to hang a pot to help the world, cure diseases and save people, you must not put the cart before the horse, I have never heard of this today, you will go to memorize the pharmacology when you are injured! ”

"Master, that day you entered the Tong'an pharmacy to grab medicine, I heard in the market that the village closer to Beiyu has basically been slaughtered, even the baby has not been spared, the emperor ordered the closure of Chicheng, but I ever thought that our villages were exposed to Beiyu's big knife in front of the world, hanging pot Jishi is only suitable in the Taiping period, at this time, Beiyu's big knife will not fall because you are a doctor. I didn't go to the army for Nansang, but for my family, I have you and girls in my family, and I don't want my family to be slaughtered. Master, if there is a Tianbei Yu army pressing the border, we will either be the abandoned sons of Nansang or the prisoners of Beiyu, because this place is not suitable for arranging troops, and the imperial court will not send troops to garrison. I don't want that day, even if that day comes, I hope that I have the ability to give you and the girl a stable world in the world. ”

……

In the end, Wei San persuaded his master and let him join the army. Si Xi went to see him off, and before parting, he hugged Si Xi tightly, who had just reached his shoulder, and his voice was choked: "Niu, wait for me to bring the cake back for you to eat." Si Xi nodded in his arms, he let go of her head and walked forward without looking back, Si Xi's nose was sour and cried, after she came here, she had a sense of security from him and his master, and couldn't help shouting at him: "You must come back!" I must come back safely!" The war is ruthless, and no one knows if this separation is a death farewell.

On the way back, Si Xi finally thought of how to get the villagers to avoid the point of slaughtering the village.

The master is also a lot older, she knelt on the ground, solemnly offered a cup of tea to the master,

"Master, I want to study medicine with you, maybe I am not as talented as Brother Wei, but I will study very hard and pass on the righteousness of your doctor, I know that I am a woman, and I am not qualified to learn from you before, but I also want to be like Brother Wei San for the country and family, I don't want him to come back, I am still his burden, and now I want to take on his share of responsibility, master......"

"The master is not pedantic, good boy, I know your efforts, I see them all, you can learn from me."

Now Si Xi has taken over Wei San's learning task, and also dressed up as a boy, every morning is to know the pharmacology of various herbs and memorize them, she is dizzy and dizzy, especially when the master checks in the afternoon, the expression of rotten wood can not be carved, which makes her ashamed, not that she is lazy, it is really an obscure ancient text, I think she was also in the college entrance examination in the thousands of troops rushed out, but unfortunately these Chinese want to die, so I had to be cheeky to continue to ask the master.

There are two more days to be the birthday, on this day Sixi said to the master: "Master, there are not many herbs, let's go to the mountains to collect medicine in advance, I can also see if there are any fruits to pick." ”

The master was silent, and agreed, Si Xi guessed, probably remembering Wei San.

The two walked for a long time, and Si Xi said to the master: "The master forgot to bring the medicine hoe, I'll go back and get it immediately." Without waiting for the master to answer, he ran to the club, and the master shook his head and continued to walk.
