readx;? Elder Kuanggu took off the silver needle on Gongsun Ran's leisurely face, smeared the herbs on his face, and said, "Don't wash your face these days, wait for the medicine to dry and fall naturally." Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info" Gongsun replied leisurely.

After applying the herbs, Gongsun leisurely found the bronze mirror and trembled in fright: "Master, why is my face swollen like this, can it be intact?"

Elder Kuanggu said angrily: "Yuyan Flower is a rare immortal grass, it will definitely be good, rest assured." Senior Brother Cao Shen grinned, and Gongsun Youran felt uncomfortable: "Senior Brother Cao Shen, such a black mass, and his face is swollen, how can he go out to meet people......?"

Li Yong woke up and shouted when he saw Gongsun Youran's appearance: "Senior Brother Gongsun, why did your face become like this?"

Elder Kuanggu glared at Li Yong and said angrily, "Do you think your ass is better looking than other people's faces?" ”

Gongsun leisurely: "......"

Li Yong didn't dare to make a sound, and then pretended to wail a few times: "Ouch, master, is my ass useless, swollen and high." Elder Kuanggu and Cao Shen couldn't help laughing, and Elder Kuanggu said, "Ah, it's okay, go back and rest for two days and the swelling will go down, don't run around the injury." ”

Li Yong got up: "Oh, I know. ”

Senior Brother Caoshen found a piece of black cloth and said, "Na, Senior Brother Gongsun, you first wear a cover to cover your ugliness, you love beauty so much, I'm afraid you can't accept it in your heart, hehe." ”

Gongsun leisurely covered his face carefully, felt a few pains, and slowly knelt down and said: "Thank you master for giving up the jade face flower for the apprentice, leisurely will practice hard to repay your kindness in the future, and it is the apprentice's duty to serve you tea and water." Gongsun kowtowed leisurely, and the expressions of Kuanggu and Cao Shen were slightly strange.

Elder Kuanggu tried a color, Cao Shen stepped forward and helped Gongsun up leisurely, Elder Kuanggu said, "Well, are you two better after applying medicine?" Gongsun and Li Yong nodded in response, and Elder Kuanggu stroked his beard and said: "Okay, then you go back to rest, and come back in a few days." ”

After Gongsun said goodbye to Li Yong leisurely, Li Yong helped Gongsun to go out leisurely.

Elder Kuanggu and Senior Brother Caoshen laughed a few times, and Caoshen said: "Master, you are really ......smart" Zhou Quanshu walked out with a stack of straw paper, and said: "Master, the medicinal properties of more than 30 kinds of herbs you explained in the morning have been compiled, please take a look." ”

Elder Kuanggu and Cao Ginseng shook their bodies, probably forgetting that there were still people in the house, Elder Kuanggu's face swelled: "Scared, scared me to death, why are you hiding inside?"

Zhou Quanshu is not clear: "I ......"

Cao Shen took the draft in Zhou Quanshu's hand and said, "Ah, master, you let him be in it, why did you forget it?" Elder Kuanggu came back to his senses, thinking that he had just concentrated on being an apprentice of Meng Gongsun leisurely, and forgot that there was a Zhou Quanshu in the back room, fortunately he didn't show his feet just now, otherwise Elder Kuanggu's reputation in the Tianchong Immortal Realm for four or five hundred years would have been ruined.

Elder Kuanggu took the draft and glanced at it roughly, and said, "Well, it's done well, it's very attentive, and the master will teach you his life's medical skills in the future." ”

Zhou Quanshu was ecstatic for a while, bowed and saluted: "Thank you master, the apprentice must study hard......" Elder Kuanggu and Cao Shen looked embarrassed, Zhou Quanshu, the idiot, said the wrong thing again, and hurriedly changed his words: "The whole book must study the master's medical skills with heart!"

Elder Kuanggu coughed lightly and said, "Well, that's fine, you can go back first." ”

Zhou Quanshu raised his head and said, "Are you going back so early?"

Cao Shen hurriedly said: "Oh, the master means that the two junior brothers were injured just now, you go back and take care of it." Zhou Quanshu shook his head and said, "Oh, okay, the whole book will go, I'll go first." Elder Kuanggu nodded, and Zhou Quanshu went out to catch up with Gongsun Youran and the two of them.

Elder Kuanggu and Cao Shen stood at the door and watched the three of them go away, and Elder Kuanggu shook his head: "This nerd is really pedantic. Cao Shen was puzzled and asked, "Master, then you still said that you would teach him your life's medical skills!"

Elder Kuanggu said: "Well, grass ginseng, although he is dumbfounded, he can calm down. Studying medicine is a boring thing, and I think he is quite suitable, as for whether he can inherit my mantle in the future, it depends on the will of God. ”

Cao Shen said: "Oh, Cao Shen is going to clean up the herbs, so I'm going to get busy first." Elder Kuanggu nodded, and the grass ginseng was busy.

Tian Cai approached the latrine and covered her nose: "Should you pick up manure to manure the field?" Tian Cai turned around and shook her head: "Sister Xiyun loves cleanliness so much, if she sees these disgusting things, will she slap me to death? ”

Tian Cai walked away a few steps: "Well, by the way, there is stove ash in the kitchen, and my mother said that it can be used as fertilizer, and then sprinkle a layer of vegetables in the land and it will grow well." ”

Gongsun and Li Yong walked to the hut with each other, and drank tea leisurely: "Senior Brother Gongsun, are you okay?" Gongsun responded vaguely, Li Yong twisted his body and said: "Thanks to Master Kuanggu who used fairy grass and jade flowers to treat Senior Brother Gongsun's injuries, it should be fine in a few days." ”

Li Yan was surprised: "Oh, Yuyanhua, so amazing?" Gongsun did not answer leisurely, thinking that he was exhausted from the mental journey just now.

Li Yong: "Senior Brother Gongsun, you ......" Liyan put down the teacup and said: "Senior Brother Li, Senior Brother Gongsun needs to recuperate, it should be fine." ”

Gongsun leisurely entered the house and sat at the head of the bed, Niu Ergou woke up, saw a familiar appearance with his face covered to himself, immediately frightened, shouted: "You, who are you? Why are you covering your face, do you want to kill me? I, I haven't asked you what you want, don't hurt my daughter......"

The monk stopped dancing and looked into the room.

Gongsun was in an unhappy mood: "Who, who wants to kill you, don't be surprised, I'm tired of listening." Niu Ergou heard Gongsun Youran's voice, and wiped the sweat from his forehead: "Oh, Senior Brother Gongsun, why are you, why are you wearing a black cloth in the house, how scary!"

Gongsun frowned leisurely, and there was a slight pain in his mouth: "Nosy, don't you usually run around? Why are you trapped in the house sleeping now, go and go, get out quickly!"

Niu Ergou stood up, wiped the saliva from the corner of his mouth and said, "Alas, I was scared to death, and I thought something had happened to my daughter." ”

Gongsun asked leisurely: "Do you have a daughter?" Niu Ergou yawned: "I am twenty-six years old this year, and the brothers in the same village have given birth to several children, and the older children can work in the fields." I, my family is poor, I looked for a daughter-in-law late, and gave birth to a daughter. ”

Niu Ergou sighed deeply and said: "It's all because I love gambling money, I owe usury to the gambling house, creditors often come to force debts, the child was weak and sickly, but she died of anger, and those people took away my five-year-old daughter." ”

Gongsun said leisurely: "I saw you being kicked out of the gambling house that day, it seems that you are inferior and do not change......"

Niu Ergou hurriedly said: "I went to find my daughter, not to gamble." ”

Gongsun breathed a sigh of relief and said, "It seems that you still have a trace of conscience, what about your daughter?"

Niu Ergou said: "I heard the creditor say that my daughter was bought by a big family, so I went to the mansion to find it, and the buyer said that he spent money to buy my daughter, and he had a deed of sale in his hand, and it was impossible to return it to me......" Niu Ergou choked up as he spoke, and Gongsun was a little uncomfortable: "Then you ......"

Niu Ergou wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes and said, "I begged him in every possible way, and in the end he promised to return my daughter, but he just asked me to take out the money to ransom people." ”

Liyan, Mudao Monk, Li Yong, and Zhou Quanshu walked in, and Liwu said: "It turns out that Senior Brother Niu's daughter is like this, alas. ”

Gongsun asked leisurely: "Senior Brother Niu, how much does it cost to ransom someone?" Niu Ergou was overjoyed in his heart, and said in a whimpering voice: "It was said that it was a hundred taels, but in fact, the people in the gambling house sold it for ten taels of silver." ”

Li Yong said indignantly: "It's really unreasonable, where is there such a black-hearted person, the price of ransom will be increased tenfold!"

The Mudao monk shouted a Buddha name: "Amitabha, Senior Brother Niu, is your daughter okay now?"

Niu Ergou said: "The buyer said that he would take good care of my daughter, his family has thousands of acres of fertile land and is very rich, and he doesn't have to worry about food and clothing to be a girl in his house." ”

Zhou Quanshu said: "It's good that there is no danger for the time being, but I'm afraid of hitting the child." ”

Niu Ergou said: "The buyer's family is not bad, and they have not abused anyone." The crowd breathed a sigh of relief.

Gongsun leisurely took out a stack of paper tickets from his arms, took out one and said, "Here are one hundred taels of silver tickets, you can take them to redeem your daughter." ”

Everyone's eyes straightened, Niu Ergou hurriedly took the silver ticket and knelt on the ground: "Thank you, Senior Brother Gongsun." Gongsun leisurely hurriedly helped Niu Ergou up, and said: "Hey, Senior Brother Niu, get up quickly, where is the senior brother kneeling on the junior brother? ”

Gongsun leisurely helped Niu Ergou to sit on the bed, and Niu Ergou was grateful: "Yes, we are all good brothers, good brothers." Niu Ergou wiped the corners of his eyes and looked at Gongsun leisurely with a stack of silver tickets in his hand: "Senior Brother Gongsun, you have so many silver tickets on you, this, this is at least thousands of taels." Several people couldn't help but laugh.

Li Yong slapped the dust and shouted, "Tian Cai, what are you doing? Everyone turned around and saw Tian Cai coming in and out of the kitchen, making dust all over the floor.

Tian Cai said: "No, it's nothing, I'll take these ashes to the field to make fertilizer, and then I can grow vegetables." Everyone walked out to breathe, and saw Tian Cai hurriedly carrying the ashes to the wasteland in the distance.
