Walking out of the hospital with Sun Zhongjing, I said, "Let's be honest, why did you call me out in a hurry?" ”

"Three consultations." Sun Zhongjing said: "Xin Yi and An Chu are waiting for you. ”

We never joke about diagnosing patients, Sun Zhongjing said, and I vaguely feel that something big is happening.

Hurried to the door of a house behind the county office, and heard Xin Yi's anxious voice: "General, please get up, you still need to recuperate!" ”

Then came Achu's voice: "Yes, it's useless for you to kneel now." ”

What's the situation? Sun Zhongjing and I didn't care about the etiquette, knocked on the door three times and pushed the door in, only to see a young man in single clothes kneeling upright in the room, Xin Yi and Achu were anxious to pull him up.

Sun Zhongjing said to them: "Okay, okay, don't waste your efforts, he is a big man and a person who practices martial arts, even if he is seriously ill now, you can't pull him." Then he said to me: "This is Gu Chenxiao, the vanguard general of the Gu family's army. ”

"Why is the general kneeling here?"

Xin Yi gave up and walked over and said, "He begged us to help him forcibly detoxify, saying that he wanted to go back to the barracks tomorrow." ”

"But our medicine is not fully developed, what if we let him go back and relapse?"

Sun Zhongjing said: "Actually, we have a way, forcibly applying the needle, but the risk is too great." ”

Indeed, the treatment method we have summed up, in addition to the antidote prescription, there is also a kind of acupuncture in Zhangmen, Shenting and Baihui acupoints at the same time, which can completely force the poison out, but these acupuncture points are known as "dead points", a little poor, there is a greater chance of direct death, so we have not used it.

I said to Sun Zhongjing: "You said that you leaked your mouth again?" ”

"No, he asked me about the casualties of the Great Wall Battalion, and if he didn't answer, he wouldn't let me go, I could only tell him." Sun Zhongjing said: "In addition, he also knows that there is a method of applying needles to force poison, so if he begs me to try it, he kneels down if I don't agree, and he can't pull it." ”

The Great Wall Battalion is the name of the garrison of the vanguard of the Gu Family Army, and I glanced at the general combat maps and military documents of General Gu Chenxiao's bedside and Chen Yidui, and my head suddenly became big.

At this time, Gu Chenxiao, who was kneeling and clenching his fists, opened his mouth: "I beg all the doctors to give Gu Feng needles, and there will be no complaints about life and death." ”

Sun Zhong's prosperity is not in one place: "Life and death without complaints? What do you complain about if I really killed you? ”

"I understand, but I can afford to wait, the brothers of the Great Wall Battalion can't afford to wait, as the chief general of the vanguard army, Gu Feng can only take a risk, and I beg you to do it!"

I said, "This is a needle on the death hole, do you understand?" ”

"Understood."

"Have you ever had a wife and children?"

"Yes. I have been married for four years and have a son and a daughter. Speaking of his family, Gu Feng's sharp facial features softened.

"Don't think about it." I replied decisively: "If you really have three longs and two shorts, we will not be able to explain to your brothers in the Great Wall Camp, let alone your wife and children. ”

"And when I went to see the British public today, he said that he promised his wife that he would bring all six children back, and you want him to break his promise?"

"......" This is a question that Gu Chenxiao can't answer.

Ah Chu quickly helped him to the bed, and Gu Chenxiao only said, "It's Gu Feng who offended." He closed his eyes.

His anguish and anguish are not invisible to us. As the first line of the fight against Beirong, it goes without saying how serious the losses of the Great Wall Battalion were when the soldiers were poisoned and the dragons were leaderless, but this is not a reason for us to risk needles for him, after all, this set of needles ...... It was prepared for a few of us who were poisoned ourselves.

The four of them exited the door, and I said softly: "Call me over, it should be not only to persuade Gu Er Gongzi not to look for death." ”

Xin Yi said: "Indeed, let's go back and say." ”

Back at the inn, there was an old man in the room with some exotic appearance, Achu looked at it for a moment, and exclaimed: "You are the ...... from Feixia Pass before."

The old man smiled "haha": "The little girl has a good memory. ”

On the third day of the visit, at noon, when I was rushing to the resettlement site after lunch, I saw a beggar fainting on the side of the road, and an old man was giving him an injection, and asked loudly if anyone was willing to send the beggar to the hospital. The beggar was ragged and dirty, and although there were many onlookers, they all covered their noses and refused to come forward.

I happened to carry the medicine box on my back, and when I saw this, I hurriedly stepped forward to help, and then together with the old man, I sent the beggar to the medical hall, and the old man in front of me was the same one that day.

I was about to speak, but the old man smiled at me and shook his head slightly, and I knew that he recognized me.

Sun Zhongjing solemnly introduced: "This is Fu Lao, his honorable name is Fu Sinan, and he is my teacher in the medical Tao." ”

There are not many people who can make Sun Zhongjing respect from the bottom of his heart, and this Fu Lao is one. I, Achu and Xin Yi hurriedly saluted and said, "I've seen Fu seniors." ”

"You guys are so polite." Fu Lao waved his hand. Xin Yi remembered something again: "I heard my grandfather mention the name Fu Sinan when I was a child, which shows that the medical skills of our predecessors have been attained, and we young people still have a lot to learn." ”

"Oh, that old guy in Gu Xiubei can still praise me for being good?" Fu Lao was very disdainful: "Isn't it that after so many years of being an imperial doctor, you have changed your sex?" ”

Xin Yi is not good at teasing his grandfather like Fu Lao, and we juniors can't be rude, so we can only laugh and listen to it.

"However, our two old men are not angry, he is a royal chief imperial doctor, and only a granddaughter like you has learned a little bit of his essence among his descendants, and I don't know how he taught him." Fu Lao praised Xin Yi, and said: "What about me, I don't even have a person to inherit my mantle at such an age, only a nasty ghost like Sun Zhongjing has learned a half-hearted." ”

Sun Zhongjing protested weakly: "Save some face for me." ”

"What a face. But this little girl who is on the clinic with you is good, I wonder if I would like to be my old man's apprentice? Fu Lao suddenly turned the topic to me.

I was flattered and hurriedly said: "Bing Ran can learn a thing or two from Fu seniors, where can he dare to be so arrogant that he thinks that the Holy Hand of Xinglin is his teacher?" ”

"Okay, you kid is talented and benevolent, how much you can learn is a few points, and I am also a successor." Fu Lao stroked his beard and smiled: "Besides, this Qiankun dispersion antidote is also a secret recipe, so it naturally has to be passed on to the disciples of the in-laws, but the situation is urgent, and now everything is simple, I will eat your cup of Xie Shi tea and worship the teacher." ”

When I heard this, I hurriedly poured tea and knelt down in front of Fu Lao: "Disciple Shen Bingran, I have seen Master." "To be able to have an extra master in this world is like an extra sense of belonging to me.

"Good, good." Fu Lao was in a good mood, "Get up quickly." ”

"Tell me, you obviously came to give us an antidote, and you deceived an apprentice for yourself." Sun Zhongjing pretended to complain.

"Sun Ergou, if you are rude to my master, I'm not welcome." I threatened to hit him.

"Hey, how long have you known me, how long have you been apprenticed, why did you defect so quickly?"

"No matter how short or long the acquaintance is, and besides, we are now considered the same family, how can the maintenance of the master be considered a rebellion?" I blinked proudly and turned to Fu Lao Dao: "Master, I heard that you were still in Feixia Pass before, and now you are under martial law everywhere, how did you come to Dingyan City?" ”

"It's still intimate, Sun Zhongjing, this kid has finally been governed, and there is more than one." Fu Lao was very proud: "Dingyan City is the teacher's home, and the teacher is willing to go home and stay without running around, they can't ask for it." ”

Sun Zhongjing explained with a "reluctant" face: "Fu Lao is a mixed race of Beirong and Huaguo, didn't you notice that his appearance is different?" ”

"I see." I said, "I can't complain that Sun Zhongjing said that Master will have a half-born lotus that only grows in Beirong here." ”

Ah Chu was puzzled: "Senior Fu, you have the blood of the Beirong people, the Gu family army and Beirong have been fighting for many years, and they are already old enemies, are you willing to come to the rescue?" ”

"Girl, the entanglements and contradictions between the forces in these large and small tribes of Beirong are more complicated than you think." Fu Lao didn't get angry when he heard this: "If it weren't for the fact that Chen Bing's victory over the Huyan family outside the pass wiped out the Mu clan to which my mother belonged, my mother would not have met my father in the run, let alone not be able to return to his hometown for the rest of his life. ”

"That's right."

"But there are gains and losses, and now my identity is not bound by borders, and I can come and go freely; But Gu Xiubei and I both relied on our own medical skills to help Emperor Taizu of Huaguo pacify the civil strife and expand the territory, and now those civil and military generals have been named Marquis and Jin Jue, and the ancient head has also become a royal doctor, so I will not be allowed to live in the temple of Huaguo, of course, I don't bother to be this official. Fu Lao explained, and said to us: "However, no matter what happens to Gu Jiajun and that little Qincha, you have made meritorious contributions to the rescue of the people this time, as long as you go back alive, you will be promoted to become wealthy, and you will be indispensable, and you should not learn from my old man's temper of Xianyun Yehe, if you have any rewards, you will be far away from the intrigue in the court." ”

I smiled and said, "Since Master said so, our hope of going back alive this time is about very slim. ”

"It's not a good thing for an apprentice to be too clever." Fu Lao sighed: "This flavor of the Qiankun scattered medicine is a frost grass that only grows in the territory of Beirong. ”

"Frost grass is actually not poison, after drying and grinding into powder, a small amount of it can make people feel excited, if the person who practices martial arts can quickly improve his internal strength in a short period of time, and become infinitely powerful, but for a long time, over time, the medicinal backlash will directly hurt people at all, the most common is mental disorder can not control himself, if it is a man, there will be no symptoms."

"If you eat too much of this thing, you will get impotence?" Sun Zhongjing was extremely open-mouthed: "Then who dares to touch it!" ”

"In the early years, when Huaguo Taizu quelled the civil strife, there was a force that colluded with Beirong, and after the collapse of this force, signs of taking frost grass can be found in the corpses of soldiers killed in battle and the bodies of prisoners, of course, this is also a long time ago." Fu Lao sneered: "There is no shortage of unscrupulous people in this world. ”

"The medicinal materials that make up Qiankun Powder are divided into two parts, but even if they are taken together, the medicinal properties cannot be combined, and this strange poison can only be made by using the frost herb as a guide." Fu Lao said: "And this medicine does not have to be taken together with medicinal materials to be effective, even if you accidentally eat other medicinal materials, it can play a role, this is the cruelty of Qiankun San." ”

"Poison antidotes go hand in hand, since this Qiankun San's medicine is only long in Beirong, then our antidote is lacking, isn't it only available in Beirong?"

"That's right, this antidote only grows within twenty steps of the Frost Melting Grass, and it's called Snowflake." Fu Lao took out a broken ancient book from the bottom of his medicine box, opened one of the pages, and pointed to the picture and text on it.

"The record of Qiankun San in this book is the same as the one my grandfather left for me to take away!" Xin Yi exclaimed.

"Naturally, this old guy borrowed my collection of books to copy, but half of the copy, the rebels hit the gate, and when he came out, he didn't care about copying the books, until I said goodbye to go to the north, and I was afraid that he would forget it when he returned."

Speaking of this, Fu Lao rejoiced: "Thanks to me not as bad as him is to ruin ancient books, otherwise this poison will not know how long it will take to find a cure." ”

Sun Zhongjing said: "Now that the medicine is introduced, the problem is, Fu Lao can't let him take this risk at such an old age, so who will take the medicine?" ”

Chu: "......"

Xin Yi: "......"

Me: "......"

Fu Lao said angrily: "You kid don't beat my apprentice and those two girls, Gu Jiajun's Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon, it's enough to draw three out at will, isn't their deputy marshal fifteen years old dare to break into the Beirong King's tent, let him run away!" ”

I said, "Master, with the number of poisoned people in the Gu family army and the critical level of the battle situation, how can I get the generals of the unified army to leave to collect medicine, not to mention that he may not know medicinal materials. ”

Ah Chu also echoed: "Besides, the poisoned god unknowingly put the medicine in the Gu family's army rations, most of which were done by the traitor, and we can't see it, what if the task is sent to the traitor?" ”

That's the truth, but let the three of us risk being pierced through the heart by ten thousand arrows on the battlefield or stabbed into a dozen blood holes to collect medicine in Beirong, which is unfamiliar with the place, this fear is far greater than encountering twenty Tartars as soon as we get out of Feixia Pass.

Fu Lao noticed our hesitation and said, "If you follow your current prescription, although the lack of medicine will not be able to eradicate the toxin, but let the Gu family army recover its combat effectiveness and win this battle, it will not be a problem, and maybe it will not be poisoned again." Moreover, even if you relapse in the future, you have already taken the bounty and left, and you will not be blamed. ”

"If you tell the truth, they will understand, and they will be responsible for the medicine. But it is the vocation of the doctor to hang the pot to help the world, and how to choose is all up to you. ”

"What Master taught us is that we are not afraid of death, so let's do it." I laughed at the old man.

From Dingyan City to the place where the snowflakes grow recorded in the book, it is a three-day round trip.

Looks like I can't sleep tonight.
