A group of three of us, along a sheep intestine path, walked around for a long time, only to see a small village at the mountain pass, this village is not big, looking at dozens of households, Li Zhanfeng has found out where the family of traditional Chinese medicine surnamed Xue lives, so he has always supported me to walk in front and lead the way.

After entering the village, we stopped in front of a very large courtyard, this courtyard looks very ancient, or the Qing Dynasty building, blue bricks and green tiles, there are two stone lions at the door, even the two doors are black lacquered wooden doors, the color has dropped a lot, it looks very ancient, quite a sense of the heaviness of the times.

There is also a plaque hanging at the gate, with four big characters on it: "Xue's Pharmacy".

This font is neat, it looks like it has been around for some years, and the meaning of the word is very simple and clear, it is a pharmacy opened by the surname Xue.

We stopped at the door for a while, and Li Zhanfeng said, "Director Wu, this is the house, let's go in and take a look?" ”

The old man answered, and immediately walked towards the courtyard, Li Zhanfeng and I immediately followed, and after entering, I found that the courtyard looked quite large, and there were many flowers and plants planted, some of which I couldn't even name.

But in such a large courtyard, not a single tree was planted, only a layer of bluestone slabs was pounced on the corridor in the middle, and on both sides of the bluestone slabs, except for some vegetables such as green vegetables and radishes, there were some plants similar to herbs.

The owner of this house is quite space-saving, and it is the first time I have seen someone grow herbs in their own home, which is worthy of a family of traditional Chinese medicine.

Walked through a long corridor, at the end is a very large living room, in the middle hall hangs a plaque, on the book is four big characters: "hanging pot to help the world", this font looks like a pen walking dragon snake, vigorous and powerful, a look is from the hand of a famous artist.

The old man carefully glanced at these words, couldn't help but gasp, and said, "It's really a big deal!" ”

I didn't know why, so I asked Li Zhanfeng on the side, what is the origin of this plaque, Li Zhanfeng also gasped and whispered to me: "The words on this plaque are written by Li Hongzhang......"

As soon as I heard the three words Li Hongzhang, I also took a straight breath, who is Li Hongzhang, it is estimated that no one does not know, a big official in the late Qing Dynasty, the celebrity next to Cixi Lafayette, was almost the prime minister, and he actually gave an inscription to a small pharmacy in this wilderness mountain village, how big does this be? It seems that the two old men we are looking for should live here, this Xue's pharmacy is a veritable family of traditional Chinese medicine, just look at this plaque can see one or two.

Immediately, the three of us rushed in, walked into this hall, and what we saw was a room full of medicine cabinets, a large room around the whole circle, a fresh smell of medicine came to my nose, as soon as I smelled this smell, I felt that I was not so tired, and I didn't know if it was a psychological effect.

In the middle of the main hall there is a large wooden counter, in front of the counter is sitting a young man, long and refreshing, eyebrows and eyes, the age looks like a twenty-seven or eighteen years old, wearing a hanfu, the kind of clothes with buttons, light gray, the whole person looks very spirited.

There were four people standing in front of this little brother at this time, a middle-aged man, a middle-aged woman who looked very rich, and behind them stood two people wearing suits and ties, like bodyguards.

The middle-aged man turned his back to us and said bitterly, "Doctor Xue, can you save me...... A few months ago, I didn't know what was going on on my face, I had a tumor, I didn't care about it at first, and then it grew bigger and bigger, so I went to several big hospitals to see, they couldn't say what a strange disease was, in short, it was not cured, some time ago I went to the best hospital in the capital, and I didn't see anything about it, I had an operation, after it was removed, it grew back in two days, it was bigger than the previous tumor, they said it was an incurable disease, and I had never seen this disease at all. The tumor is getting bigger and bigger, and there is pus and blood, the stench is bad, I can't eat myself, I heard a friend introduced, said that there is a miracle doctor here, specializing in the treatment of all kinds of incurable diseases, so I came here, as long as Dr. Xue can cure me, how much it costs, this tumor grows on the face, it is really uncomfortable......

The young man nodded slightly, and said with a straight face: "Don't worry, let me take a closer look." ”

Saying that, the young man stretched out his hand and grabbed the middle-aged man's head, and watched left and right, when the middle-aged man's head turned to our side, I subconsciously took a look, and really startled me, the middle-aged man's left eye underneath, there was a big tumor, like a big eggplant, shrugged to the chin, it was really like an eggplant, thin above, thick below, black and purple, shiny, looking at it makes people sick to their stomachs, eyelids moved, the whole big tumor trembled, although it was not close to the distance, But there was also a foul smell wafting through, like the smell of dead rats.

After looking at it for a while, the young man nodded and said, "This is not a serious illness, but it is caused by the evil qi entering the body depression, but you must prescribe the right medicine, have you eaten some strange things in the past few months, try not to hide it from me, otherwise the gods will not be able to save you." ”

The middle-aged man thought for a while before he said, "I didn't eat anything weird in the past few months, but I ate a lot of big fish and meat, and I also ate some game, pheasants and rabbits, I don't think there's anything weird......"

At this time, the rich middle-aged woman interjected: "I remember three months ago, we didn't travel to Thailand, a small local restaurant, caught a one-eyed snake, you bought it and ate it, that snake is the boss, you eat it alone, one vigorously said it was delicious, and didn't let us taste it, not long after coming back, there was a tumor under your eye, is this related to the snake?" ”

The young man looked at the rich middle-aged woman, and said, "What does the snake look like, can you tell me about it?" ”

The middle-aged woman thought about it carefully for a while, and then said: "What impresses me the most is that the flower snake only has one eye, and there is one on the top of the head, which is very strange, the snake is about more than a meter long, and there are three colors on the body, black, yellow and red, these colors form a pattern on the flower snake, and it looks like a small eye......
