Chapter 25 Military Doctor Sun Shuyan
The incident in the north has spread in the surrounding towns in the past two days, and everyone is in danger, thanks to the fact that Feixia Pass is basically unaffected, and it has not been completely closed for martial law, but there are very few people entering and leaving.
Nowadays, most of the people who dare to pass through Feixia Pass are bold northern merchants, and they are also familiar faces walking around the three passes in the north of the town. The four of us newcomers mingled in a crowd of people dressed in alien clothes, but it was a sight to behold.
Although it was early in the morning, the garrison of the city unexpectedly ignored Xin Yisai's past "wine money", and interrogated several of us with a vigilant face for a long time, but refused to let them go. Seeing the group of merchants behind us muttering impatiently to their companions about an unintelligible foreign language, as if they were planning to squeeze us out of the city line, the situation was awkward and anxious.
My temper can't help but come up a little: I have to enter this Feixia Pass today! immediately glanced at Sun Zhongjing: Money is useless, just try to play the emotional card.
Everyone understood, so Achu and Xin Yi hurriedly let Sun Zhongjing to the front, Sun Zhongjing took a deep breath, and grabbed the hand of the defending soldier who was reprimanding us.
At first glance, he was caught by a beautiful man, and the soldier was also startled, but he saw Sun Zhongjing and said:
"This big brother! I heard that my third brother was a military doctor in the rear army of the Gu family, and he had been to Feixia Pass with the army for a few months, and there was no news at all. ”
"You ......"
"And because I'm worried about my third brother, even his three concubines came with me, this eldest brother, for the sake of people's infatuation, let us go in to see if my third brother is dead or alive, and I can report to my father, Master Jun, you can do it!"
I, Achu and Xin Yi wiped away their tears very cooperatively in the back, and took the opportunity to cover their whole faces with their sleeves to hide their urge to laugh and beat Sun Zhongjing.
Sun Zhongjing's words were full of tears, and his exaggerated performance gave the soldiers a great impact, and he even stammered when he spoke: "You ...... Don't get too excited, you said that your third brother is a military doctor, who is his surname, and which battalion is he a soldier? ”
"My third brother's name is Sun Shuyan, I don't know which battalion it is, I only know that it belongs to the rear troops."
"It's easy to know the name." The soldier breathed a sigh of relief, "I asked you to send you to the Gu family army camp to ask, I seem to have some impression of this person's name." ”
"Thank you, big brother, for letting me go." Sun Zhongjing and the three of us hurriedly returned the salute and thanked him loudly, for fear that he would regret it.
The rear troops of the Gu family army were divided into four battalions, and because they did not undertake the main combat mission, they were not titled, but only called east, south, west, and north. The North Battalion was the largest battalion in the rear and the only combat unit that needed to cooperate with the troops at the front from time to time; Dongying is responsible for grain and grass transportation and logistics support; Xiying was responsible for ordnance manufacturing and raising war horses; The scale of the southern battalion is much smaller, and it is basically composed of military dependents who have to follow the army and veterans who are no longer able to go to the battlefield but cannot be disarmed and returned to the field. Sun Zhongjing's third brother, Sun Shuyan, is the military doctor of Nanying, although because he was born in a Xinglin family and is a young and strong man, he is often transferred to Beiying to assist or go out to procure, but he does not have to go to the battlefield to be considered a very safe position in the military camp. And even more fortunately, because of the characteristics of this kind of work that has to come out from time to time to run, Sun Shuyan also successfully became familiar with the guards guarding everywhere, so as soon as we mentioned his name, the two guards at the gate of the camp showed a look of sudden realization, and one of the more clever ones turned into the camp early to call people out.
Needless to say, Uncle Sun was surprised when he saw that this second brother, who had not been at home for a year and a half, suddenly ran to the Feixiaguan camp, but after seeing me, A Chu, and Xin Yi following behind, he was even more shocked: "The three are?" ”
I smiled and said, "Hello Sun Gongzi, your second brother cares about you very much, and bought you three new concubines, and in the future, our sisters' clothing and consumption will all depend on you." ”
Sun Shuyan was instantly dumbfounded, seeing that the three of us had a sincere face, he turned to Sun Zhongjing and said, "Second brother! How can you cheat the young daughter of a poor family as a concubine at will? ”
Me, Achu and Xin Yi: "......"
Sun Zhongjing smiled embarrassedly: "Misunderstanding, misunderstanding." ”
Now that the person has arrived, he still has to invite for breakfast. Sitting in the inn not far from the barracks, after Sun Shuyan asked for a few local specialties, he asked us for our identity and intention, and hurriedly apologized: "Fang is my rudeness, and I ask the girls to forgive me. ”
Thinking that Fang Cai had deceived him, I raised my hand and saluted back: "Sun Gongzi is too polite, it is Bing Ran who is the first to stop him, no wonder Gongzi." Besides, saving lives and helping the injured is my equal internal matter, and the son is really praised. ”
Ah Chu and Xin Yi also returned the salute together: "Sun Gongzi praised it falsely. ”
Sun Zhongjing said: "Hey guys, how can you usually hurt me, and you are so humble and polite to my third brother?" ”
"If you pay for today's meal, how about we give you a salute as it is?" I laughed.
"I, I'll say it casually."
Xin Yi said: "But Sun Gongzi, there is something I really want to thank your second brother, if he hadn't picked up your letter along the river, we wouldn't be here now." ”
"Thank goodness." Sun Shuyan said: "When the plague first broke out before, we only received some rumors, and when the news of the third and sixth generals of the Gu family was infected came, the people here in Feixia Pass were already panicking. I heard that the military doctors on the front line had made no progress in researching prescriptions, and I thought that I often went out to buy things, so I took the opportunity to write down the epidemic situation in Dashengguan and Datongguan on paper every two days, put it in a bamboo tube and put it in a clay pot, and then put the clay pot down the Biyun River, just hoping to try my luck. ”
"My second brother went back to his hometown to worship his ancestors and said that he was going to travel to the north, although I knew that there was little hope this time, but I also had some thoughts, and now the second brother actually brought you three helpers to come, it seems that there is no endless road."
Sun Zhongjing said: "Although your method is a little stupid, it still has some effect, it can be seen that stupid people have stupid blessings not in vain." ”
Sun Shuyan was probably used to being teased by his brother, so he just held the wine glass and smiled, and Achu took the opportunity to take the last piece of omelette.
I broke half of the tortilla and dipped it in some sauce: "Sun Gongzi's words are only half right, this time it shook the entire battle situation in the north of the town, but I am afraid that it is not the plague, but the poison." ”
Sun Shuyan's smile froze on his face.
Xin Yi added: "Yes, in fact, in the past few days when we rushed here, we have never stopped researching the prescription for the disease, and the people infected with the plague in the north are actually poisoned, which is the consensus we finally reached." ”
I said: "And although I don't know how much the real situation is different from what Sun Gongzi described, but looking at the symptoms alone, some of them do not look like plagues, but like poisoning." ”
"Impossible!" Sun Shuyan's voice attracted the sideways glances of the guests at the surrounding tables, and he sat back in his seat, with a shocked face on his face: "No, with Gu Jiajun's reconnaissance ability and combat experience, it is impossible for him to be unaware of such a large-scale poisoning!" ”
"In the final analysis, the poison technique Gu technique is also a sideshow, Gu Jiajun disdains to use it, and naturally understands it shallowly, how can he detect it?"
"But the medical skills of the front-line military doctors are better than even inferior to the imperial doctors in the palace, and they are also well-informed, and they have never doubted it."
"Different doctors are good at different subjects, since they are military doctors, they are naturally better at soldiers, as for poison, Sun Gongzi, how many doctors can we have who are good at this in China?"
The art of poison Gu is indeed an unpopular skill in Huaguo, and there is only such a record in the ancient books that Xin Yi found out, and it was still left alone in the deepest corner of the cupboard, and the degree of contempt can be imagined. I added, "Even we found a record of similar symptoms by chance, so we dared to inform Childe of this inference." ”
"That'...... Is there a way to detoxify? ”
"We tried to make antidote and anti-poison prescriptions according to what we learned in the records and in our lives, but we didn't know whether it was right or wrong." I sighed and said, "However, we are so young that we really can't determine the type of poison and the method of poisoning, I'm afraid it will be a symptom but not a cure." ”
"There is a prescription to try, and now it is a situation where a dead horse becomes a live horse doctor." Sun Shuyan said: "When I finish eating, I will take you to the camp." ”
