Chapter 42: I miss it deeply
Gu Li stood at the door of the stove room and looked at him blankly, her eyes full of surprise and joy.
He's back!
Yan Qing lowered her eyes, looked at her white and tender feet on the ground, and said in a gentle and gentle voice: "The morning dew on the ground is heavy, and you should be careful to catch a cold." ”
Gu Li smiled at him, ran back to the room, hurriedly put on clothes, shoes and socks, and ran out again.
"When did you come back?" She asked, standing behind him, her voice full of joy that could not be concealed.
"Last night." Yan Qing smiled leisurely.
He's back, and she's so happy?
"Why didn't you call me?"
"Seeing that you were sleeping, I didn't bother."
Gu Li nodded, thinking that she must have slept too soundly last night, otherwise why didn't she even hear a little movement?
"Where have you been? It's been half a month, it's been almost a month. ”
Yan Qing listened to the obvious resentment in her words, looked back at her, and smiled slightly: "I was delayed on the road for a while, and I came back late." ”
Gu Li pursed her lips: "I thought you were stopped by the soldiers guarding the city and didn't let you in." ”
Yan Qing smiled and said nothing, if he wanted to enter, who could stop him?
"Alright." He spoke softly and brought out the food in the pot.
Gu Li immediately ran to wash, and when she took a bite of the food he had made, a full sense of satisfaction arose.
It's been a long time since I've eaten his cooking, and even she didn't expect that she would miss it so much.
"By the way, when you came back, what happened outside the city?" Gu Li asked him, wanting to know about the situation outside.
"Hunger is everywhere, and people are fleeing." Yan Qing replied.
Gu Li couldn't help but sigh: "I didn't expect this flood to bring such serious consequences. ”
She was accustomed to living in an era of peace and abundance, and for the first time she encountered famine and victims, she felt shocked.
"Fortunately, Lord Li had the foresight to strengthen the river embankment in advance, otherwise, you and I don't know where it is." Gu Li sighed again and again.
If it weren't for Lord Li's prevention, then this flood would have been inevitable for them here. It was indeed a little unkind for Lord Li to stop those victims outside the city, but Gu Li expressed his understanding. If they are allowed to enter the city, it will not only make the residents of the city panic, but also make the epidemic more raging.
"Lord Li is really a good official, and he personally distributed medicine to the sick victims two days ago, otherwise, this epidemic would not have passed so quickly." Gu Li said again.
Yan Qing'an ate quietly, with an elegant posture, and did not reply.
There is chaos in all directions, but this land is safe and peaceful. The imperial court's commendation for Li Lin is probably already on the way.
Yan Qing smiled slightly, he knew that Li Lin would definitely adopt his opinion. Kill the victims, protect the way.
Gu Li finished eating, put down the dishes and chopsticks, and did not leave immediately.
Seeing that she was unusual, Yan Qing asked, "Aren't you going to Xiancao Hall today?" ”
"Go."
"Why don't you leave?"
"Let's go." Gu Li smiled and lowered her eyes.
She was overjoyed and a little reluctant to leave.
Yan Qing looked at her figure leaving slowly, and there was a touch of tenderness in her deep eyes.
He came back and she was very happy. It seems that he was right in deciding to return it.
Gu Li had just entered the Immortal Grass Hall, and Jin Zhi noticed the bright smile on her face.
"Sister, what happened to you?"
Gu Li thought for a moment and replied, "Sort of." ”
Jin Zhi wanted to ask in detail, but before she could speak, she suddenly heard a loud "bang".
She and Gu Li both looked back.
I saw that the door that had not yet been fully opened was kicked open from the outside, and a young woman in a crimson dress came in domineeringly.
"Who detoxified Li Youyuan?" As soon as she entered, she shouted and asked.
Gu Li was stunned, who is Li Youyuan? The one from last night?
She vaguely remembered that the patient who was poisoned last night seemed to be Li Gongzi.
"I'll do it." Gu Li took two steps forward and looked at the red-shirted woman and replied.
The woman in the red shirt was full of anger: "What are you doing with your business? ”
Gu Li frowned and argued: "He came to seek a doctor, and I will see him, this is a matter of course, why meddle in things?" ”
This girl is so unreasonable!
The woman in the red shirt glared: "His poison, I ordered it, you can't solve it!" ”
Gu Li laughed angrily, she has been a human being for two lifetimes, and this is the first time she has met such a brutal person.
But after all, the Immortal Grass Hall is also a place to open its doors to do business, not to mention that there have been a lot of people who have gathered here to watch the excitement.
Gu Li couldn't quarrel with her here, so she said: "This girl, I don't care what you have with him, but since he has come to me for medical treatment, he is my patient, and I will do my best to treat him." If you're not satisfied with the poison I've cured him, you can go and poison him again. ”
The red-shirted woman snorted lightly and sneered: "Aren't you the kind of miracle doctor?" I'd like to see if you really have two brushes, or if you're selling your reputation. ”
As she said this, she suddenly waved her hand, and a white mist drifted into the crowd in an instant.
The crowd was frightened and fled in a hurry, shouting as they ran: "Run, the poison doctor has poisoned again!" ”
The onlookers fled in all directions, but it was too late, and they didn't have to run a few steps before they felt their throats tight, their breathing was short, and they were wheezing with their necks in an effort to breathe.
Gu Li didn't have much research on poison, and at this time, she couldn't tell what kind of poison the red-shirted woman was using, let alone the method of detoxification.
But since the poison is in powder form and acts on the human respiratory system, it is certainly right to stay away from the poison quickly.
So she shouted to the crowd, "Run upwind and cover your mouth and nose with your clothes." ”
In this way, the amount of poison inhaled can be reduced.
However, the crowd had long since been chaotic, and few people could do what she said.
The woman in the red shirt looked at her with a mocking face: "What kind of miracle doctor do you call yourself, I thought you were so powerful!" It's a detoxification for them. ”
Gu Li was extremely angry: "If you are dissatisfied with me, just come to me, what is it to harm the innocent?" ”
The woman in the red shirt smiled again: "I like to hurt the innocent, who made you meddle?" And it went to my head. ”
The two of them were-for-tat, and no one noticed that a cloud of white powder suddenly rose in the chaotic crowd.
Those poisoned people gasped, and suddenly felt that their breathing was relaxed, and the whole person was refreshed.
The poison in them was unraveled in an instant.
Gu Li and the red-shirted woman also noticed it, she thought it was Gu Li's antidote, so she looked at her angrily, snorted again, and waved her hand into the crowd again.
Suddenly, a cloud of green smoke drifted away.
Everyone had just felt that their breath was comfortable, but this time they couldn't do it again, and they all coughed with a click.
