63 Finding a ghost doctor
Xiao An, who had already undergone a corpse transformation, was subdued by the old man who burned the fire in the inn, and the eldest old Wei reached out and grabbed the burning stick, pulled it out from the wooden wall, and then carried it on his shoulders and led Xiao An to the backyard.
The old man sent Xiao An's body into the stove pit, and the fire burned to ashes.
Xiao Xu hid her face and didn't dare to look directly, her heart was still beating violently, and her three views were also subverted by the sudden change, the old man who burned the fire handed her a bowl of water and comforted: "Girl, drink some water first to calm down!" ”
Elder Wei asked Ye Shuyang to hurry back to the cellar to take care of the baby, he sat on the ground by himself, and quickly gave birth to a large rash on his face, itching his face to scratch the flesh and blood, Xiao Xu was stunned in surprise.
The old man who burned the fire also frowned, stared at the elder Wei with all his attention, and then said to Xiao Xu: "Go and invite your black seedling woman here, maybe only she can save your companion!" ”
Xiao Xu was busy, and under the leadership of the shopkeeper, he found the cellar, opened the door, and explained the situation to Gong Qingzhen inside, and Ye Shuyang handed Mo Yin over to the innkeeper to take care of.
The eldest elder Wei was tied with cow tendons by the old man and pressed to the ground.
Ye Shuyang hurriedly asked him: "How did he become like this?" ”
"I can't tell, the pioneer should remove the Gu poison in his body!" The old man who burned the fire responded.
Ye Shuyang rummaged through the herbs in his pocket, and then said, "But I can't solve the Gu either, and there is no medicine to relieve the Gu poison here." ”
The old man said slowly: "Out of the inn, walk ten miles east along the stone road, there is a river, you take a bamboo raft down the river, go ashore at the first turn, and then find the only way up the mountain, where this ghost doctor is hidden, maybe he can save the life of your friend!" ”
Ye Shuyang hurriedly wrote it down carefully, and called Xiao Xu to hurriedly return to the cellar.
Gong Qingzhen and the proprietress came out with the two babies in their arms, and after listening to Ye Shuyang's words, the proprietress said: "I know the way, I can take you to the ghost doctor!" ”
Xiao Xu and Ye Shuyang hurriedly thanked her, and the proprietress ordered the shop guys to make a stretcher with the old man who burned the fire, and tied the old Wei to the stretcher.
She also prepared the dry food and water for the road, and said to the old man who burned the fire: "Old Mo, you stay and watch the store, we will be back soon!" ”
Ye Shuyang also begged Lao Mo: "My companion will be buried with Lao Aweng!" ”
Lao Mo answered, and motioned for them to hurry up and get on the road.
At this time, it was already the fifth watch, Ye Shuyang and Xiao Xu were carrying stretchers, the shopkeepers were on guard with lanterns, and the proprietress was also leading the way with lanterns.
The eldest elder Wei on the stretcher was still struggling desperately, his arms were also covered with spots, Ye Shuyang took out a piece of herb from his pocket, chewed it in his mouth, and stuffed it into the eldest elder Wei's mouth, while Xiao Xu fed the elder Wei a tranquilizer.
Elder Wei settled down and stopped struggling, but he closed his eyes and fell into a coma.
The trail was winding, but the locals led the way, and they arrived at the river at dawn and stopped to rest.
The shopkeeper took the bamboo tube, took a big sip of wine, and then pulled out his machete, startling the women who were resting.
The proprietress hurriedly explained: "I asked the little second brother to cut down the bamboo and build a bamboo raft for us!" ”
The shopkeeper took off his shirt, revealing his muscular muscles, his arms waved, his knife and axe split, and soon cut down a dozen green bamboos, tightened them with bamboo ropes, and tied them into a bamboo raft.
The bamboo raft was launched, Xiao Xu and Ye Shuyang carried the elder Wei up, the proprietress personally supported the pen, and the shopkeeper sat on the bamboo raft and began to use dry food.
Xiao Xu couldn't help but look at the shopkeeper, this is a young offspring, with a resolute face, munching bacon, Ye Shuyang looked back at the mountain, and saw a thick smoke rising into the sky, so he reported to the proprietress: "Look, there is a fire on the mountain!" ”
Everyone looked in the direction of Ye Shuyang's finger, and sure enough, they saw a thick smoke rising into the sky, and the proprietress immediately shouted: "It's not good, that's my inn!" ”
She was about to prop the bamboo raft back, but the shopkeeper hurriedly stopped her, and Gong Qingzhen persuaded: "Your inn is on fire, we are all in a hurry, but even if we rush back now, it will be too late!" ”
The proprietress cried: "This is what my husband's family left me, and I can't live without the inn!" ”
The shopkeeper analyzed: "Boss, the inn is taken care of by Lao Mo, and there will be no fire for no reason, someone must have deliberately set it on fire!" ”
Ye Shuyang also echoed: "We can't go back, in case it is the enemy who is chasing, won't we fall into the net!" If you follow me, as long as you save Comrade Wei, I believe he will lead us to a safe place to start a new life! ”
The proprietress sat on the bamboo raft and let the river wet her skirt.
Xiao Xu and Gong Qingzhen were also sad, but Ye Shuyang's face was full of worry.
The bamboo raft went down the river, and soon reached the first turn, here is another green mountain, the shopkeeper was busy putting the bamboo raft on the shore, Xiao Xu and Ye Shuyang carried the stretcher ashore, and the proprietress and Gong Qingzhen followed.
They rested on the spot, and the shopkeeper looked for his way up the hill with his machete in hand.
On a convex rock halfway up the mountainside, a bamboo fence appeared, and through the fence gate, there was a bamboo basket, and the plaque at the main gate of the bamboo basket was inscribed with the word "ghost doctor".
But the shopkeeper was illiterate, so he went up and knocked at the door.
The bamboo door opened, and a balding white-eyed old man poked out of it, this old man was still blind, and asked in a low voice, "What is the matter with the guests coming here?" ”
The shopkeeper hurriedly said: "I'm here to find a ghost doctor, one of my companions has contracted a strange disease, and now he can't survive, he can't die." ”
The old man pointed to the plaque above his head with a bamboo cane and replied: "Ghost doctors have always only healed ghosts and not saved people, so you should find another master!" ”
The shopkeeper immediately asked: "So the predecessor is a ghost doctor?" ”
The old man did not answer, but returned to the bamboo building and closed the door.
The shopkeeper quickly returned to the riverside and told his companion the news, Xiao Xu and Ye Shuyang lifted the stretcher again and followed the shopkeeper halfway up the mountain.
Gong Qingzhen held the baby in her arms and asked when she saw this bamboo basket: "The setting here is very unreasonable?" ”
The proprietress hugged Mo Yin and asked, "Why is the setting here unreasonable?" ”
Gong Qingzhen analyzed: "This bamboo building is built on the convex rock on the mountainside, and the convex rock is at the tuyere, and the cliff is below. ”
Ye Shuyang and the shopkeeper both nodded yes, but Xiao Xu said: "Whatever, it's important to save Comrade Wei quickly!" ”
They walked through the fence gate and came to the bamboo building, where Gong Qingzhen knocked on the door with the baby in her arms.
Just now, the old man leaned out and said slowly: "If I save him, many people will die at his hands!" ”
Xiao Xu hurriedly said: "The ghost doctor senior must save him, otherwise we won't survive!" ”
The ghost doctor stubbornly said, "But he will really kill a lot of people, a lot of people!" ”
Mo Yin let out a cry, causing Gong Qingzhen's children to cry too.
The proprietress hurriedly handed over Mo Yin to Xiao Xu to take care of, and she thought that this baby was Xiao Xu's child.
The ghost doctor heard Mo Yin's cry and immediately said, "Are you escorting these two babies?" ”
