Bai Ze is treating the boy, this disease of wind and cold can be big or small, a small illness hurts the body, and a major illness is fatal. Judging from the boy's current situation, it is not very optimistic. Fortunately, Bai Ze is not only a doctor, but also a doctor who can tell fortunes, plus a doctor who can read feng shui and use talismans, with him, the boy's condition should be controllable, as for whether he can be good or not, not only depends on the doctor's medical skills, but also depends on the patient's own resistance and willpower. If he believes that his illness can be cured, then he can be cured. But if he thinks that he can't get better, even if the gods go down to earth, he can't get any better.

Bai Li repeated these words several times in his heart, but he still didn't say them in front of his two sisters and brothers.

Xu was worried about her brother's condition, and the girl pretended to be calm and held the porridge, but she didn't take her eyes off the boy for a moment.

"Don't worry, your brother will be fine."

"Girl?" The girl's eyes fell on Bai Li: "Can I take the liberty of asking, why did you and this son come to the village?" ”

"Find someone."

"Looking for someone? Who are you looking for? ”

"My master, an old man who looks like he's in his forties and looks a little weird. He loves to eat very much, and he often has a wine gourd hanging on his body. I wonder if you've ever met him? ”

The girl shook her head slightly: "No, your master should not have been to Dulou Village." ”

"Really? That may be the wrong place. Bai Li sighed softly: "This old man always likes to run around, and when he runs, he can't find anyone." By the way, was this how your village used to be? ”

"Uh...... No, it's not. The girl shook her head: "Our village is called Dulou Village, and the people in the village have been carpenters for generations. Some build houses, some make tables, chairs, and benches, some make cabinets, and some make coffins for the dead. Oh, and also, most of the people in our village are surnamed Du, and they are all related to each other in some way. My name is Du Xiaozhi, he is my cousin, his name is Du Xiaoshan. ”

"You turned out to be cousins, I thought you were brothers and sisters."

"My cousins are also close. My father was only a year older than my uncle, and my mother and aunt entered the door almost at the same time. My brother and I were also born one after the other, and we have lived and played together since we were young. The relationship between us is no different from that of siblings of the same mother. ”

"My sister is right, we have a better relationship than many brothers and sisters."

"I can see it." Bai Li blinked enviously: "There are indeed many brothers and sisters in this world, and they are not as good as those who are not close to others." By the way, what happened to your village, how did it become the way it is? What about your loved ones? ”

"They're all dead." Du Xiaoshan lowered his head and replied sullenly: "On the day of the accident, it happened to be the day before my sister left the cabinet, and the family was busy cooking for my sister. My mother and aunt, as well as several aunts and aunts of the family, were busy in the kitchen, my father and my uncle accompanied my grandfather to talk in the yard, and my grandmother took a few elders to her room to see the dowry she had prepared for my sister. ”

"Leaving my mother? At what age is your sister about to leave the cabinet? Bai Li asked, and Tsai looked at Du Xiaozhi carefully: "This looks even smaller than me." ”

"I was born in the month of Layue, and I am over sixteen years old." Du Xiaozhi explained.

"Sixteen years old is also a little girl, why is your family very short of money, so anxious to marry you?" Bai Li quickly covered her mouth after asking: "I'm sorry, I may have said the wrong thing." ”

"Miss Bai is right, my family is quite short of money." Du Xiaozhi straightened the hair on his sideburns: "When my father was helping the nobles build furniture in Liyang City, he accidentally made a mistake. The wood in the nobleman's house was excellent, and a small section would cost dozens of pieces of silver, and although my family was not poor, there was no way to make up that much silver taels at once. In desperation, my father had no choice but to sell me to their family. ”

"I suspect that this is the family's plan, they must have valued my sister's beauty for a long time, and deliberately asked my eldest uncle to go to their house to help make things, and deliberately let the servants change the pattern while my eldest uncle and eldest aunt were resting, so as to threaten my eldest uncle to marry my sister to the stupid son of their family. But I have no evidence, and their family doesn't admit it, my grandparents, uncle, and my father are all timid people, so I have to agree to marry my sister for fear that the other party will sue the official. When it first happened, I thought God had taken pity on my sister and deliberately let those things help. Who knows, it was the beginning of a disaster. ”

Du Xiaoshan coughed continuously for a while, and continued: "That day, the family was very lively, but my sister and I were not in a good mood. I advised my sister to run away and come back when the matter was over. But my sister was unwilling, lest her family be implicated by her. While we were arguing, the curtain suddenly lifted a corner, and a black and yellow object fell from the lattice with a click, hitting my sister's dresser. When my sister looked at it, she was so frightened that she stood up from the stool, and her face was also pale. I bent down to look and realized it was a snake. The snake was entrenched not far from my sister's feet, and it still spat scarlet snake hyacinth in its mouth. My sister was so frightened that she didn't dare to move, and although I was sick and weak, I was a boy after all, so I found something to pick out the snake. ”

"You're so bold, I'm afraid of that thing." Bai Li just listened to Du Xiaoshan's description, and felt that he was going to get goosebumps.

"It's not really bold, it's just that my sister is frightened, if I don't stand up, who else can my sister rely on. In my sister's room, there was a broom, and I picked it up casually, trying to use it to drive the snake out. Everything is a matter of life, and I didn't want to hurt the snake, but when the broom touched it, it was able to stab and wrap itself around my sister, so frightened that she fell to the ground on the spot. It was too late, it was too fast, my mind was clouded, and I didn't care about anything, so I directly pinched the snake's seven inches with my hand. It turned its tongue and tried to bite me, and I panicked, and I used a little more strength in my hands. ”

"Hit the snake and hit seven inches, your road is exactly the same as my Li'er." Bai Ze looked at Bai Li with a smile.

Bai Li grinned, and his smile was very deliberate: "I'm fighting fat, not snakes." ”

"Almost, almost." Bai Ze stretched his arm: "Anyway, I can't think of this." ”

"I also heard the old man say when I was a child, but when I grew so big, it was the first time I killed so many snakes." Du Xiaoshan's face turned a little paler: "The snake was pinched seven inches, just like a person was pinched by the throat, no matter how I say it, it is also a boy who has eaten idle food for more than ten years, and he doesn't have much strength in this body, it is still okay to pinch a snake to death." When we saw the snake breathing, we were all relieved, but no one expected that the death of that snake was the beginning of the siege of the entire snake group. ”
