Chapter 17: Seeking Medical Treatment in Peach Valley (Part I)
The book continued from the above, and the last book said that Tianxin and they met the old man Jiuyue who had been waiting here for a long time on the way to Peach Valley, this little ghost who once regarded Tianxin as an elder brother and sister, holding a long sword to replace Hongying and Jinhong, and asked her for an explanation. In the end, Tianxin and her last old friend in Qianshan parted ways, and the rivers and lakes were strange, where is the way back. So it led to the peach blossom fairy in the peach blossom forest, the little novice remembered in his heart, life and death do not meet, who can quit greed and hatred.
After all the way around, early the next morning, they finally arrived at the destination of their trip - Peach Valley. In the pavilion at the mouth of the valley, there were seven or eight people gathered, and they all had sad faces. Tianxin was the first to get out of the carriage. "This old man, so many of you are gathered here, why don't you go into the valley?"
"We're all here for medical treatment, but we can't get into this Peach Valley at all. The peach blossom forest in the valley is so evil that we tried it a few times, but it was like a ghost hitting the wall. The old man shook his head helplessly.
"It's strange to say, we came to this Peach Valley a month ago, and we can still enter and exit normally, but now we want to come to the door to thank you, but we can't get in." A middle-aged man dressed in Sven smoothed his beard, and the little guy driving behind him was probably tired, so he sat in the shade on the side to rest.
"Could it be that the ghost-faced divine doctor has set up some kind of formation?" Tianxin didn't expect that this time the road to medical treatment was going to be extraneous again, and the immortals on the body of the small steps were still fierce, and they could fall into a coma again at any time. Thinking of this, she couldn't help frowning, and said something without a beginning. "Could it be that the mountain is closed because of going far away?"
"No, the ghost-faced divine doctor is famous in the rivers and lakes for his hanging pot, even if he is not in the valley, he will instruct the disciples in the valley to treat the patient, and he will not let so many people seek medical treatment and ignore it." It was a woman dressed as a village girl, who was supported by a young man of thin stature.
Tianxin showed a helpless expression to the ram feather book who followed him, and Bu Jinghong guessed irresponsibly. "Did you think he gave the wrong medicine? Ran away? ”
"Poof! You can figure it out! You are not afraid that the divine doctor will hear it, and then you will break your head, and he will not blink an eye. When Gongsun Ce heard Tianxin's words, he laughed unkindly, with a pair of peach blossom eyes, as if he was drunk but not drunk.
"Hehe... Don't they all say that the heart of the doctor's parents! He can't be so stingy, right? Tianxin laughed dryly twice. Anyway, he can't hear it, just talk about it! ”
After that, Tianxin asked a few people one after another, and everyone's answers were similar, it seemed that if they didn't go in person to see what was going on, they couldn't find the answer to the question. When the three of them were discussing together, the old man just now came over timidly, and he bowed his hand to Tianxin. "Childe, the little old man has a reluctant request. My grandson is a single son of several generations, he has suffered from heart disease since he was a child, and his parents died early... I have invited many doctors, and they all said that he will not survive this autumn, so let Xiao Lao'er prepare for the future as soon as possible... I implore my son not to give up and take our grandfather and grandson into the valley together. ”
Tianxin looked at Gongsun Ce and Bu Jinghong on the left and right with inquiring eyes, after all, the heart of harming people is indispensable, and the heart of preventing people is indispensable, and his experience in the rivers and lakes is still shallow, so it is more appropriate to ask the two bigwigs on the side.
"It doesn't matter." The former agreed nonchalantly, and the latter just mumbled
After resting, the five of them entered the valley. Sure enough, as soon as I entered this peach blossom forest, I could feel a strange breath, it seemed that it was indeed moved by someone with a heart, but under the leadership of the stinky Taoist, the road was quite smooth, and they finally passed through a piece of pink and saw a different scenery. A stone bridge spans the stream, and birds chirp in the woods. When everyone was about to pass, a burst of peach blossoms was lost. After the wind stopped, a girl in a pink dress stood on the bridge at some point.
"Presumably, you are here to seek medical treatment, and since you can get here, you can be regarded as having some skills. However, if you want to cross this bridge, you must first help the slave family do something, and after the thing is completed, the slave family will naturally not embarrass you. The woman's voice was sweet and crisp, like a yellow warbler in the hollow valley.
"The Ghost-Faced Doctor is a woman?" Tianxin looked puzzled, before, the stinky Taoist priest obviously called the divine doctor the color divine doctor... Isn't there also a rotten girl in ancient times? Thinking of this, Tianxin couldn't help but look at the girl in pink a few more times. Good boy! What does this girl think, she doesn't look like a fellow traveler with such a hobby?! Sure enough, it is as deep as a person, and from then on conscience is a passerby.
"The slave family can't compare to the ghost-faced miracle doctor, but if you want to think about this peach forest, you have to do things for the slave family."
"The girl laughed, with the girl's way, she wants to stop us, I'm afraid it's a little powerless, right?" Gongsun Ce yawned lazily, and then his eyes sank. "If you want to say that you really have a hand, this thin skin and tender meat... I'm really a little reluctant to do it! ”
Tianxin rolled her eyes, she looked at the teasing Gongsun Ce with disgust, but Gongsun Ce raised his eyebrows disappretently. Nima, what a good show! I didn't expect this stinky Taoist priest to be a stinky rascal! This is a pity for the jade?! Tianxin really wanted to at the moment, pinched his baby face with one hand, and pulled hard! Cure him of his amorous disease!
"Even if you kill me, it's in vain, and once I'm dead, you won't even want to get out of this peach blossom forest." The woman in pink looked at everyone and paused. "You take with you, one old and one young... Well... And this highly poisonous son, if you really make a move..."
Before the words fell, Bu Jinghong, who was at the back of the line, had already crossed the people in front of him, and struck at the woman's heavenly spirit cover with one palm. Seeing that the woman's life was hanging by a thread, Bu Jinghong's hand was stopped halfway by Gongsun Ce. The former seemed to be a little unwilling, while the latter looked innocent, the two were in a stalemate for a while, and finally Bu Jinghong just snorted coldly, withdrew his hand and stood aside.
"Tut-tut, how can you be so rude to the girl, be careful that you can't find a wife in the future." Gongsun Ce turned her face, and she said to the woman in pink with a smile, "What do you want from the girl?" ”
The woman in pink didn't seem to be angry at all about what happened just now, but said very politely. "Childe is a smart man, please come here."
Following the pink woman through the forest of flowers, everyone came to a simple pergola built with straw. Underneath it, there is a stone table with a unique shape, on which there are several azure cups and two plates of delicate refreshments. There was a small red clay stove next to the table, and an iron teapot was placed on the stove, and at the moment the spout was wafting white smoke. All of a sudden, the atmosphere suddenly became less-for-tat, but a little more relaxed. As soon as everyone sat down, the accompanying teenager picked up a piece of peach blossom cake and put it in his mouth.
"Little boy don't have to worry, this peach blossom cake is a specialty snack in this area, and every household will make it." The woman in pink seemed to see Tianxin's concerns, and she smiled coquettishly while making them tea. "Besides, Chun Tao still depends on you, and it won't do harm."
Gongsun Ce took the teacup from Chun Tao's hand, blew the tea leaves floating in the cup, and tasted it comfortably. "Good tea."
Bu Jinghong didn't speak, his hostility subsided slightly, and he sat quietly to the side with his eyes closed.
"Actually, it's not easy to say this..."Chun Tao's face was full of sadness. The slave family is actually not a local, but in order to find people, they came all the way from the royal capital Changning to here. ”
"Looking for someone? Could it be that ghost-faced miracle doctor and you? "Judging from the attitude of this woman's speech, Li Tianxin faintly felt that the person being looked for must have a close relationship with her, she was alone in Peach Valley, and the stinky Taoist priest said that the divine doctor, is it here to find the ghost-faced divine doctor?" I thought there was something wrong with this Laoshzi miracle doctor, but I really didn't expect that he was actually a negative man. ”
Chun Tao was stunned for a moment, then covered her mouth and smiled. "The little boy is really interesting."
Gongsun Ce on the side laughed, "Thinking that along the way, this doctor was first regarded as a quack doctor, and now he is called a negative man." Tut-tut, I really don't know how he will feel when he hears this, Tianxin, I look at your peach valley, or don't go. ”
And the corners of Bu Jinghong's mouth were also slightly upturned.
"Isn't it? Now that the girls have come to them, does he still want to deny it? Li Tianxin picked up the second piece of peach blossom cake. I took a bite unappetizingly. "I saw it, this ghost-faced miracle doctor, eighty percent is also a Mongolian doctor, don't look back and can't solve the poison on Xiaobuzi's body, and then give him hehehe!"
Gongsun Ce slapped his thigh with a smile, and the grandfather and grandson sitting on the side, although they didn't know what they said, but out of politeness, they had to smirk.
"The little woman doesn't dare to implicate the ghost-faced miracle doctor, the husband of the slave family, in the Hanshan Temple not far from here."
"Do you have a husband?" I went, and the woman in front of me was only fifteen or sixteen years old, and she didn't look like a married woman.
"What is he doing in the temple of monks? Is it possible to run away from home and become a monk? Tianxin shook his fingers and picked up the third peach blossom cake.
Chun Tao shook her head, and she added some tea to Tianxin's cup. "My husband is a high monk, and his Dharma name is Futu."
"Your husband is a monk?!" The peach blossom cake in Tianxin's hand fell on the table. "Flowers... Flower Monk?! ”
Bu Jinghong's shoulders shook and he turned his face to the side.
"Poof... Don't talk nonsense! Did you say that about your family? Gongsun Ce put aside the teacup in his hand, pretended that nothing had happened, and unhurriedly wiped the tea on his face with his sleeve.
"Cut, there is a flower priest? There are flower monks! "Heaven has a point.
Gongsun Ce spread his hands and turned to look at Chun Tao. "This monk temple doesn't eat people, why doesn't Madame go to him herself?"
"He won't see me..."Chun Tao lowered her head and looked bitter.
"In that case, your fate with him is over, why should Madame force it." Gongsun Cefeng said lightly.
Tianxin gave Gongsun Ce a roll of his eyes. "Madame, don't worry, maybe one day, the monk will open his mind and come down the mountain to reunite with you."
"He's not around for a long time, I'm afraid he won't be able to wait."
"Not long after? Is he seriously ill? "The atmosphere that was originally relaxed became awkward.
"It's... He's terminally ill... If you wait, I'm afraid the slave won't even be able to see him for the last time..."
"Your husband is really ruthless! Won't I see you even when I die? I've got you covered! As she spoke, Tianxin stood up suddenly, and she took Chun Tao's hand. Let's go now! See if I don't fight this bald... Monk's meal! ”
Tianxin thought that other people would also help with righteous indignation, but the people around him sat still and remained silent. "Why haven't you moved?"
"Madame didn't tell the truth, did she?" Gongsun Ce raised his eyebrows, and Bu Jinghong on the side also opened his eyes.
"In the end, I can't hide it from the two of you, but Chun Tao is definitely harmless, I just want to see him for the last time." She let go of Tianxin's hand and sat down. "The slave family was originally a peach tree spirit that had been practicing for a hundred years under the Hanshan Temple, because he listened to and recited the scriptures every day, and slowly became spiritual. Something happened in the heavenly realm that year, causing the spring in the human realm to be unusually cold, and many living creatures froze to death in the forest. Just when the slave family was thinking wildly, there was a little novice who went down the mountain to fetch water, stopped beside me, this little novice was the stupidest fool the slave family had ever seen, he actually took off his cotton clothes and surrounded the slave family. Obviously, he was shivering from the cold, and he had to comfort a peach tree softly. It was also because of such a nerd that the slave family cultivated diligently and wanted to repay the favor, and finally turned into a human form a few years later. Whenever the little novice went down the mountain to fetch water and firewood, the slave family would talk to him as a human being. In a blink of an eye, it was more than ten spring and autumn, and gradually we fell in love with each other..."
"If I hadn't been a monk for a long time, how good it would be to go down the mountain and marry a daughter-in-law to live a small life! Guarding the broken temple every day, watching a group of big bald heads be boring. Tianxin held his cheeks and listened attentively.
"It's a pity you're not him." Chun Tao smiled a little desolately. "His master was a compassionate and enlightened monk, and he privately advised me not to associate with Futu anymore, let alone harm his practice. I was young and vigorous and didn't listen to admonitions... One day, the master and his disciples wanted to subdue me. The two sides fought, and his master's cultivation couldn't compare to me, so he was injured by me... I didn't plan to kill us, but the old monk wouldn't fulfill us... Tremble in the balance... In order to save his master, Futu was seriously injured, and looking at the countless dead and injured brothers around him, he made a heavy oath that he would break off with me in this life and never see each other again. ”
“... "Tianxin seemed to remember the words of the ram feather book on the Sanqing Hall that day, and muttered to himself. "If grudges and affections are so easy to cut off... Where in the world are there so many obsessed people..."
Gongsun Ce took a sip of tea lightly and did not speak, and Bu Jinghong on the side naturally understood that Tianxin had something to say.
"Later, his master died of illness, and Fu Tu thought that everything was caused by him, so he refused to heal his wounds, and suffered from injuries and pain every day." Chun Tao said silently and shed tears. "I implore you to help Chun Tao, so that the slave family can see him, and he will not be entangled after that."
"Shemales have different paths, I hope Mrs. will put it down." Gongsun Ce's voice didn't hear any emotion, just leisurely looking at the peach blossoms falling in the distance.
"I said that you monks, why are you so hard-hearted! People just went to see him, but didn't they go to him?! Tianxin looked at Gongsun Ce who was sitting on the side with dissatisfaction, this guy had been obstructing it vigorously from just now. Let me ask you, will you come with us? ”
"No, no." Unexpectedly, it was Bu Jinghong who answered.
