Chapter 238: Some Are Ostensibly Healers......
The boat heading towards Liu Xiu is more than 20 meters long, and there are two small attics on it, with exquisite carved beams and painted columns, no matter how you look at it, it doesn't look like an ordinary passenger ship, but like a flower boat.
Although the ship seemed to be heading straight in his direction, Liu Xiu didn't pay attention to it after a little glance, in case people just passed in this direction.
After a few minutes, Liu Xiu couldn't pay attention because the boat appeared next to his small boat, and it also slowed down and moved in line with him.
More than ten meters away, at the bow of the small building boat, a young man in black in the depths said to Liu Xiu: "Little brother, are you a fisherman on this river?" I'm hard working enough, I'm up early enough."
The young man looked like he was in his early twenties, with a tall posture, an estimated height of 1.9 meters, and a resolute and handsome face.
Hearing the young man's words, Liu Xiu lowered his head and looked at himself slightly, and said in his heart, "Do you see that I look like a fisherman with that eye?" Are you blind, if you are a fisherman, I don't say you have a fishing net, at least you have to have a fishing rod, right?
Shaking his head, Liu Xiu replied, "I'm not a fisherman."
"Oh......", the young man didn't care, he didn't care about Liu Xiu's identity at all, and then asked: "Then I want to ask the little brother, do you know how to get to Cool Breeze Villa?" ”
At this time, Liu Xiu understood, the other party was looking for himself to ask for directions, obviously the other party was asking the wrong person, Liu Xiu shook his head and said, "I'm sorry, I don't know."
The young man was a little disappointed, and said a little entangled: "In this way, do you know where there are people around here who can ask for directions?" ”
"I don't know about this," Liu Xiu shook his head and said, if I knew, I would go and inquire what kind of realm this was.
The young man seemed to be a little annoyed, and pouted: "Little brother, I don't know this, I don't know that, what are you doing, why did you come up from this river that has no village in front of the village and no store in the back, this river is not safe, so you are not afraid that something vicious will run out of the water and swallow you in one bite?" ”
"I'm a traveling doctor, I go around seeing people and practicing medicine, and I'm here after walking," Liu Xiu looked at the back basket next to him and shrugged his shoulders and said, at the same time, he said in his heart, this young man has a cat disease, why are there so many questions?
As for the danger on the river, he didn't bother to answer, and when he met himself, the dangerous animals in the water should worry about him.
The young man was stunned for a moment, looked at Liu Xiu and said in amazement: "Little brother, you are a doctor?" ”
Such a young doctor, you coax the ghost, saying that you are an apprentice and have not yet graduated from the school, and you still see a doctor and practice medicine, so don't be beaten to death instead of curing people's diseases.
"Indeed, although my medical skills are not very skilled, there is no problem with minor problems, by the way, I am especially good at surgery," Liu Xiu nodded.
Although this young man seems to have something wrong, it is rare to meet someone, and Liu Xiu doesn't mind chatting with the other party a few more words.
Blinking, the young man wondered, "What is surgery?" ”
"It's about treating trauma," Liu explained.
The young man understood, didn't bother with this stubble, noticed the small iron pot next to Liu Xiu, and asked curiously: "Little brother, take the liberty of asking, do you still bring a pot when you practice medicine everywhere?" ”
Liu Xiu said as a matter of course: "As a doctor, sometimes you have to decoct medicine to see patients, right?" So it makes sense for me to bring a pot, and then I'm going to have to eat, and I can also use it for cooking, don't you think? ”
"Okay, so what are you? It looks like a musical instrument" The young man didn't bother with the question of the pot, and pointed to Liu Xiu's erhu and asked.
Glancing at the erhu, Liu Xiu was suddenly a little sad, but still said: "It is indeed a musical instrument, called erhu, I make it myself, as a doctor, when I treat people, it is inevitable that the patient will be in a bad mood, and at that time I need a little rhythm to regulate the patient's mood, so it is also very reasonable for me to bring a musical instrument, right?" ”
When she said this, Liu Xiu said in her heart that she just didn't have a chance to adjust the patient's mood, and her heart was congested......
As soon as this question was answered, the two boats that were advancing hand in hand had already walked out for a while, and the young man seemed to have lost interest in Liu Xiu, and smiled and arched his hand as if to express that he would say goodbye.
However, as soon as he turned around, he thought of something, turned to look at Liu Xiu and asked, "Little brother, you said you are good at trauma treatment?" ”
"Not bad" Liu Xiu nodded, and also saw the disbelief in the eyes of the young man, in order to increase the persuasiveness, for example, he said: "I have helped someone to stitch up a knife wound, and in the end there was no scar, and I also helped someone take an arm, and now that person's arm is intact, if you don't believe it, you can go to Linjiang City and Linbian Village under Qingliu Town to inquire."
The devil knows where the town of Aoyagi is in Narauszi......
The young man complained in his heart, and then thought about it: "Little brother, since you are good at treating trauma, can I hire you for a while?" If it goes well, it will take three or two days, not more than ten days at most, rest assured, you will be satisfied with the remuneration, if you are interested, you can get on my ship to talk in detail."
Yoh? Hire me?
Liu Xiu was slightly stunned for a moment, thinking that his aimless travel had no purpose, and it seemed that it was not impossible to accept the other party's employment, and he might be able to experience some interesting things with the other party......
After thinking about it, Liu Xiu looked at the boat under his feet with some embarrassment and said, "It's not impossible, but what should I do with this boat?" ”
He made this boat with his own hands, and he came here, Liu Xiu was a little reluctant.
"Throw it away, I'll give you as much as I want," the young man waved his hand.
Liu Xiu pondered, nodded and said, "It's okay, in fact, I didn't spend any money on this boat, you look at the meaning."
"Is one gold coin enough?" The young man took out a gold coin from his arms and threw it to Liu Xiudao without hesitation, looking like I was not short of money.
Liu Xiu took it, it was true, nodded and said, "Enough is enough"
A small boat made casually actually earns more income than working in Niujiao Town, and this business is hard to get.
Seeing that Liu Xiu agreed to come down, at the signal of the young man, a boatman came from behind, pulled Liu Xiu's boat closer with a hook, and then built a wooden plank to facilitate Liu Xiu to get on the boat.
After Liu Xiu got on the boat, the young man came over and asked, "What do you call the little brother?" ”
"My name is Liu Xiu" Liu Xiu said with a smile, looking at the small building ship a little by the way.
The sailors and boatmen on the ship performed their duties, but most of them were in the corresponding positions, except for the boatmen who pulled the boat before, almost none of them appeared outside, when Liu Xiu looked at it, he found that there were more than a dozen young and beautiful girls on the ship, this is clearly a flower boat, right?
The young man and Liu Xiu stood side by side and said, "Should I call my little brother Doctor Liu?" After all, you accepted my employment, and I can't say that there is any trouble for you in the future."
"That's not necessary, you can call me Xiao Liu or Brother Liu" Liu Xiu shook his head and said, he really didn't care about the title.
The young man nodded and said, "Then I'll call you Brother Liu, by the way, my name is Wang Chan, I am a bounty hunter, and my family knife technique is a little hot, so I came out to run the rivers and lakes."
When he said this, the young man's eyes flashed with pride, and it was obvious that the family knife technique was not as simple as a little heat.
A hint of thoughtfulness flashed in his eyes, and Liu Xiu asked curiously, "Bounty hunter?" ”
The young man who called himself Wang Chan explained: "Brother Liu, you are a doctor not a martial artist, and you are not familiar with bounty hunters, to put it bluntly, you are going to complete some paid tasks to earn money, and live a life of licking blood from the knife edge, by the way, I hired you because I took a mission, went to a place called Cool Breeze Villa to save a person, and it is estimated that there will be a fight at that time, and you may be injured, so I hired you just in case, Brother Liu, don't be afraid, I will be responsible for your safety at that time"
In Wang Chan's eyes, Liu Xiu is just a weak teenager, he doesn't have much vigilance at all, and he says anything to his face, after all, the two sides are not people of the same world, and it doesn't matter what he says.
Could it be that an ordinary little doctor with conservative and skeptical medical skills can still participate in the affairs of martial artists?
Bounty hunter, to put it bluntly, he is a 'mercenary', listening to Wang Chan say that Liu Xiu understood, and said in his heart, you yourself are estimated to be injured in battle, what else can you do to ensure my safety?
However, Liu Xiu didn't bother with this stubble, and said with a smile: "As a doctor, I have seen a lot of dead people, what is there to be afraid of, and I am employed by you, I also have to be worthy of the employment fee you give, besides, you also said that you want to ensure my safety?"
"Hahaha, little brother has the courage, I want to cooperate with you for a long time, don't you know, I once wanted to hire a lot of doctors, but they all turned around and left when they heard my employment conditions, it really made me so depressed, I can't get angry and beat people, the doctor can't afford to offend, if it spreads, I don't respect the doctor, who will treat me if I am injured in the future" Wang Chan gave Liu Xiu a thumbs up.
You think all healers are like me, they hear that your hire is in danger and their lives are in danger, and it's okay if they don't spray your face.
Some healers, like me, are ostensibly healers, but are actually melee ferocious 'mages'......
Wang Chan is a bounty hunter, and if he wants to go to Cool Breeze Villa to save people, he is likely to experience a battle, so he hires himself, and he estimates that the other party is also holding a dispensable attitude just in case, not trusting his own medical skills at all, after all, even if his medical skills are worse, he can help stop the bleeding or something, and it may be used to block the knife by the way......
After figuring out the situation, Liu Xiu's heart seemed right to accept the employment, and he might be able to go to Liangfeng Villa to see something interesting with Wang Chan, which was much better than his aimless journey.
So Liu Xiu nodded and said: "I accepted your employment, and when the time comes, if you are injured, I will take you back if you are missing an arm or leg, and it will not affect your future life."
This Liu Xiu is telling the truth.
Can't you say something good? And do you have what it takes?
Wang Chan was speechless, he didn't believe that Liu Xiu had that ability, and he didn't want to mention this stubble, seeing Liu Xiu looking at the boat, he smiled and said: "I am a bounty hunter, every day I come to the water in the wind and live a life of licking blood from the knife, there must be a time to relax, no, so I chartered this flower boat, this is very reasonable, right?" When we find the exact location of Cool Breeze Villa, we will fire them and let them go, and we will not let them get into danger."
Learn the way I speak?
Hearing him say this, Liu Xiuxin said that your way of relaxing is very good, and then kindly reminded: "Wang Gongzi should pay attention to moderation, in case it is not good if his legs are weak at a critical moment."
The corners of Wang Chan's mouth twitched: "Brother Liu, where do you want to go, I'm not that kind of person, and I'm not afraid of your jokes, I'm still a virgin, and I hired Hua Chuan to let them help me massage, sing, and cook."
Perhaps because of his own role as a bounty hunter, Wang Chan especially likes to say the word hire.
"Aha, understand, understand" Liu Xiu said embarrassedly and politely, I don't believe Wang Chan's words at all, so many beautiful young ladies let you do whatever you want to hold it for you?
Wang Chan didn't bother to explain, this kind of thing would only get darker and darker, and said to Liu Xiu: "Brother Liu, stand up, I'll let them speed up, first find someone to inquire about the specific location of Cool Breeze Villa, and then talk ......."
"Another one to die"
"It's a pity that you have to trouble that little doctor, how good-looking is it? Do you want to secretly remind him not to go to Cool Breeze Villa to die? ”
"Yo, when you see someone's little boy looking good, you will have a spring?"
"No, it's just a pity if that little boy really dies."
"It's not spring...... hey, a bunch of people who are hungry for profit, why are they all rushing to Cool Breeze Villa to die, recently I have heard how many people have never returned, to save people is certainly well-paid, but is the money so easy to get?"
"So where the hell is Cool Breeze Villa? It's been a lot of noise lately."
"Who knows, we women in the dust, don't get involved in these things"
There was such a conversation on the second floor of the ship.
Although the voice was very small, it was still heard by Liu Xiu, and the young lady on the flower boat seemed to know a lot, but when I thought about it, as dust women, they were always very well-informed, but it was obviously just hearsay, and they didn't know the specifics at all.
So what exactly is Cool Breeze Villa?
Wang Chan said that he was going to save people, who to save?
It seems that there are still many people like him who rushed to save people, but they are all gone.
Liu Xiubiao felt that he seemed to have inadvertently encountered something interesting.
There is one thing that Liu Xiu can't understand, the incident of going to Liangfeng Villa to save people seems to be quite big, and it has happened for a long time, knowing that there is no return, why are there people like Wang Chan running away? Could it be to prove yourself? But the question is, what happened to those who never came back? Whether you live or die, there has to be a result, right? What's the matter if it's just a thing of not going back?
Liu Xiu seemed to smell the smell of conspiracy, as if someone directed and acted on his own deliberately to attract people there.
Of course, this is just Liu Xiu's own speculation, and we still have to see how to find out.
While Liu Xiu was pondering these things, Wang Chan on the side actually said with great interest: "Brother Liu, you just said that your thing called erhu is a musical instrument, and I have never heard of such a musical instrument, so I take the liberty to ask, can you show me how it is played?" ”
"Of course it's no problem" Liu Xiu looked up and smiled, saying in his heart that he hoped that this Wang Chan would know how to appreciate, hey, it's hard to find a bosom friend......
