Chapter 10: What a Thousand Men Refer To

Xia's shopkeeper's shop, from the inside to the outside, has long been overcrowded, some with bowls, some with basins, and some townspeople simply carry the patients at home, and the open space outside the pharmacy is full of people who are making floors, the cries of children, the lamentations of adults, and the moans of patients, one after another, endlessly.

Seeing the grizzled Li Changjing and Liu Qingtan, several townspeople who had been waiting impatiently for a long time couldn't help but accuse: "Didn't you say that you would come back in an hour, it's almost an hour and a half now, and you deliberately grind, you want us to suffer a little more!?" ”

Liu Qingtan originally went to help out of conscience, but she was almost scolded when she said this, and in the end, it was Li Changjing who coaxed her to stop worrying.

Xia Keke had already boiled water in the kitchen with a cauldron, and after Li Changjing cleaned the medicinal materials, he immediately poured them into the pot, and then the shopkeeper Xia mixed them with some other Chinese medicines that could detoxify, mixed them into a large pot, and boiled for more than half an hour, until the smell of medicine could be smelled from dozens of meters away, and after spreading to every corner of the pharmacy, the shopkeeper Xia lifted the cauldron out and asked the family members of those patients to come with pots and pans to receive the medicine.

Of course, there are thousands of residents in the town who have been poisoned, and a pot of soup medicine is definitely not enough, so after Li Changjing discussed with Shopkeeper Xia, he decided to let those who were more seriously poisoned drink the medicine first, and those who were lightly poisoned waited for the next pot.

This process lasted for a full four hours, until after twelve o'clock in the night, after boiling five pots of soup in a row, all the poisoned townspeople drank the medicine.

Strange to say, after drinking the medicine, most of the townspeople's poisoning symptoms were significantly reduced, and some of them were even able to walk around on their own quickly, as if the poison was specially neutralized by the four herbs.

Seeing that it was late at night, Shopkeeper Xia's father and daughter, as well as Li Changjing and Liu Qingtan, were exhausted and were about to go back to rest, but at this moment, a townsman suddenly ran over in the distance, holding a bag of green powder in a vacuum-packed bag, standing at the door of the pharmacy, holding it high, and shouting loudly with righteous indignation: "I know who poisoned it, it's you, Li Changjing!" He pointed to Li Changjing in the house, and said viciously: "This package of powder was found in your house, I just fed a little bit of my family's dog, but it died in less than ten minutes, the symptoms are exactly the same as other poisoned people, what else do you have to say!" ”

When the other townspeople heard this, they seemed to suddenly realize, and shouted: "I said why is there someone poisoned in every household, but he Li Changjing is fine, it turns out that he is the one who poisoned him!" ”

"Damn, it can take so long to go up the mountain to collect medicine, it turns out that it is deliberately rubbing, so that we can suffer a little more!"

"Bastard, this kid must hate us for squeezing him out all these years, so he thought of such a vicious method, it's really a beast, and a pig and a dog are not as good!"

"Hehe, after the poisoning, he also pretended to pick medicine and boil soup for us to drink, so that we could receive his affection and be grateful to him.

Dozens of people gathered outside the pharmacy, scolding and glaring angrily at the young man sitting on the threshold, and some radical people had even picked up the stones on the ground and hit him fiercely.

"You're really going too far!"

Xia Keke walked out, his eyes were red, and he said in a trembling voice: "Brother Jing is so good, he went to collect and boil medicine overnight for you, and he didn't charge you a penny, but in the end, you were indiscriminate, and you didn't even think about it, so you thought it was his poison, do you still have brains!" ”

"Shut up! Brother Jing shouted so affectionately, he must be in league with Li Changjing, what are you shouting here, you don't have the right to speak, ask Li Changjing's little bastard to come up and confront him! ”

"That's it! Over the years, no one in the town dared to accept his Li Changjing's medicinal materials, only your pharmacy accepted it, who would believe it if it didn't matter? Sure enough, it's not a family that doesn't enter the door, I see the poisoning, you and your father Xia Qianshan also have a share! ”

The townspeople looked indignant, especially those who had been fine after drinking the medicine, and they felt that they had suffered an unwarranted disaster in vain, and they were especially angry, and they couldn't wait to go up and cut Li Changjing with a thousand knives immediately.

Liu Qingtan sat beside Li Changjing, looking at the angry townspeople outside, his tired but cold face was full of sarcasm, "These are the people you want to save no matter what, is it worth it?" If you knew this was the case, why bother in the first place, wouldn't it be better to let them all be poisoned and die. ”

The lame young man sat alone on the threshold, head bowed, shoulders shrugged, and did not say a word.

Shopkeeper Xia stepped forward and wanted to pull Xia Keke back into the house, but she broke free.

"You are sure that it was Brother Jing's poison, what is the evidence?" Xia Keke wiped his eyes with his sleeve and shouted: "If there is no physical evidence, then shut up, a bunch of wolf-hearted things!" ”

As soon as she finished speaking, someone at the back of the crowd shouted, "You want physical evidence, don't you?" Coincidentally, I just had it. ”

Soon, the crowd was divided into two sides, and Su Bowen, who was wearing a blue suit, tie, and a big comb, walked in slowly with a meaningful smile on his face, his hands behind his back, and slowly walked in.

"Look here!" Su Bowen took out a mobile phone from his trouser pocket, opened the media player, the mobile phone screen flashed, and he began to play the video.

The people around came closer to take a look, and the sharp-eyed people immediately shouted, "Isn't the background of this video the reservoir that opened the water to us, and who is the person standing on the dam?" ”

"Bastard, this person is Li Changjing! You see what he wears, it's exactly the same as what he wears now! ”

Li Changjing stiffened, raised his head, and looked at the mobile phone that Su Bowen held up, there was indeed a person wearing the same clothes as himself on the screen, his face was not clear, and he was holding a packet of green powder, which was constantly sprinkled into the water.

Xia Keke screamed, "Su Bowen, you are shameless, you actually asked someone to pretend to be Brother Jing to poison him, and framed him!" ”

Su Bowen put away his mobile phone and sneered: "I am the eldest son of the Su family, and I have a lot of money, so I can frame Li Changjing, a waste person?" Will anyone believe this kind of thing? He turned around and asked the townsfolk behind him in a loud voice, "Do you believe it?" ”

"Believe in a ghost!"

"Don't quibble, the person who poisoned it is Li Changjing!"

"Damn, the human and material evidence is here, I'm going to tear him alive!"

"Li Changjing, you are simply not human! It doesn't matter if you hate us, but so many old people and children have been poisoned, won't you feel bad about your conscience when you look at it? Don't you feel guilty? ”

Under Su Bowen's fanning, the anger of the townspeople reached its peak, and some people even smashed the bowl they had just drunk the medicine on, retching: "If I can vomit, I want to vomit those medicines back to you, the medicine grown by such a dirty person is stinky from the inside out, disgusting to death!" ”

Su Bowen came to the door of the pharmacy, looked at Li Changjing condescendingly, and said with a cruel smile: "Fight with me, you are still tender for a hundred years." Saying that, he looked at Liu Qingtan in the house again, and said with a smile: "Secretary Liu, is Li Changjing's grass shed still comfortable?" ”

Liu Qingtan raised his willow eyebrows, as if he had an understanding, and said: "It's good, whether it is the air or the atmosphere, it is ten thousand times better than your Su family's mansion, and the most important thing is that the one who sleeps next to me is not a disgusting person." ”

Su Bowen's expression froze, and then he was furious, took two steps back, and yelled at the townspeople behind him: "What are you still doing in a daze, Li Changjing, this little bastard, actually poisoned and murdered the people of our town, this kind of scum scum is not a pity to die, hurry up and break his body into ten thousand pieces!" ”

The townspeople, who had long been unbearable, roared, rushed up and rushed towards Li Changjing.

Xia Keke's face turned pale with fright, screamed, and subconsciously wanted to pull Li Changjing, but Li Changjing had already stood up, pushed her into the room, and then slammed the door of the pharmacy.

Immediately afterwards, there was a series of huge crashing sounds, slamming on the door, and without thinking about it, he knew that it was the townspeople outside who were kicking the door hard, Xia Keke was so frightened that he cried out, and sobbed: "Dad, help Brother Jing, he is still outside!" ”

Shopkeeper Xia's face was pale, and he didn't know what to say.

Liu Qingtan's face was like frost, and he looked at the door silently, and also did not say a word.

Outside the door of the pharmacy, there seemed to be no sound except for the foul language of the mob and the muffled sound of fists and feet.

I don't know how long it took.

The young man, who was curled up in a ball on the ground, with countless kicks and punches on his body, and whose head was bleeding for a long time, sat up with difficulty.

He wiped his eyes with his bloodstained sleeve, as if he didn't want anyone to see his tears.

The young man raised his head, looked in the direction of the Su family's mansion in the town, and said sadly: "Sister Yuanyang, can I be like them and be unreasonable once?" ”

An illusory figure dressed in yellow slowly appeared beside him.

The woman in yellow stretched out her hands and held the young man sitting on the ground in her arms.

She said softly: "With Sister Yuanyang here, tonight, God can't stop you." ”
