Volume 2 - Growth Chapter 34 - Into the City.

Night falls, and the moon rises tomorrow.

The old man stepped forward and touched the smooth blade with his hand.

"Haha, it's been seventy years, and I finally saw this big knife again! Not bad, not bad, the momentum is no worse than in the hands of the Marquis of Hanshou Pavilion back then!"

When Guan Shouting and the old beggar heard this, they were shocked. Guan Shouting hurriedly stepped forward and asked, "The old man is saying, have you seen your grandfather?!"

The old man nodded and said, "Yes, I was just a child back then!"

At that time, when General Guan was guarding Jingzhou, my ancestor and my father and I passed through Jingzhou to go to Xuchang. Halfway through, Shizu saw that the people of Jingzhou were suffering from war and had no money for treatment!

I stayed in Jingzhou for three months and opened a free clinic to treat the people! General Guan heard that his ancestor was giving free medical treatment to the people in the city, so he came to visit him in person. At that time, what General Guan was holding in his hand was this Qinglong Glaive Knife!

I was still young, and my father had been forcing me to study medicine all day long, and I was very excited when I saw knives and guns. But the broadsword in General Guan's hand is more majestic and domineering than other weapons, and it is the first time I have seen such a big weapon!"

"I see, the ancestors are really righteous, and they can provide free medical treatment for the people in the war-torn era."

"Alas! The ancestor is righteous, but unfortunately a few months later, the ancestor died in prison!" The old man sighed.

"This ...... How so? I haven't consulted the senior daimyo yet!"

"The surname is Wu Mingming! Don't hide it from the two, the ancestor was killed by Cao Cao, Emperor Wu of Wei!"

"Killed by Cao Cao?!...... the old beggar couldn't help but guess one person.

"What you think is right, the ancestor in my mouth is Hua Tuo, who is known as one of the three divine doctors of Jian'an! And my father is the disciple of the master - Wu Pu. The old man slowly recounted the past.

"This ......"

The old beggar and Guan Shouting glanced at each other, and the old man continued.

"My ancestor was imprisoned, and my father and I were kicked out of Xuchang. Soon after, I got the news that my ancestor had died in prison. When my father and I bribed the jailer to collect the body of my ancestor, we found that the whereabouts of the "Green Capsule Sutra" written by my ancestor all his life were unknown!

After my father passed away, after being passive for a long time, he took the young me to live in seclusion in the mountains and forests, concentrating on studying medicine. ”

The past is picturesque and colorful; There are black and white, bitter and sweet. It's nostalgic and painful, sad and joyful.

"Senpai, I'm really sorry......"

Guan Shouting felt a little guilty when he mentioned the old man's sadness.

The old man smiled and said, "It's okay, some people who live in memory are happy and some are painful......

I have lived for more than 80 years, old man, and I understand this truth!

You are not only a junior of General Guan, but you should be angry and strong, and General Guan was also a powerful figure in the world back then!"

"Thanks for mentioning it!"

"Hmmm! It's getting late, so get some rest! ”

In the next few days, with the old man's "miracle medicine", Wu Kang's injuries healed quickly.

And Zhang Danshen also learned a lot from the old man. Of course, the biggest gain of Zhang Danshen: it is still the doctor who should practice it accurately, and see the patient to cure it!

The owner of the small courtyard, Xiaoyan, went up the mountain day after day to collect medicine, and sometimes Zhang Danshen would go with him. After a few days, the small courtyard was filled with the smell of medicine.

On the seventh day, the paw prints on Wu Kang's back were completely scarred, and he was no longer as painful as before, and Wu Kang, who had been lying for seven days, was finally able to get out of bed and move.

Several people saw that Wu Kang's injury was almost healed, and it was not good to continue to "eat and drink for nothing".

On the night of his departure, Zhang Danshen sat alone in the courtyard and watched the bright moon in the clouds.

A person quietly came behind him, and then a pair of big hands attached to Zhang Danshen's eyes, Zhang Danshen's eyes were black, and he only heard a low voice behind him.

"Guess who I am!"

Zhang Danshen said impatiently: "Are you naΓ―ve or not? Get out of the way!"

"Yo Yo Yo, are you angry? Zhang Danshen, you weren't like this before! ”

Wu Kang looked at the angry Zhang Danshen, as if he had discovered a new continent. After all, Zhang Danshen was a humble gentleman before, gentle as jade.

Looking at the sulking Zhang Danshen, Wu Kang's eyes rolled, and he thought of a way to rectify the person.

I saw Wu Kang leaning his face into Zhang Danshen's ear and said, "Brother Danshen, are you angry because of which girl in it?" ”

Wu Kang said, without waiting for Zhang Danshen to react, he got up and ran.

"Wu Kang, your uncle, don't spew blood!"

"Yo Yo, look, I'm still in a hurry! Did I say yes?!" Wu Kang ran and turned back to provoke again.

Following

The fog was clear, torrential rain was scattered on the land, and thunder was rolling in the sky.

The summer rain comes and goes quickly. Heavy rain washed the earth, and the air was filled with the scent of earth.

After hearing the rain, the group also said goodbye to the girl and set out on the journey again. This time, a new member has been added to the team! After hearing the news of the Martial Arts Alliance, the old man decided to go to Luoyang with everyone.

"Hey, hey, big scholar, let's go! Everyone went back to the house! What are you still smirking and waving here? ”

Wu Kang walked a few steps, turned his head and saw that Zhang Danshen was still standing in place, waved at the courtyard gate, turned his head back, and patted Zhang Danshen on the shoulder.

Zhang Danshen reacted at this time, and Xiaoyan had already entered the courtyard.

"I said you wouldn't really like other girls, would you?" Wu Kang asked again.

"Go, go, go! What are you talking about? I'm just afraid that she will live alone in the forest and encounter some danger!"

Wu Kang smiled "cheaply", patted Zhang Danshen on the shoulder and said with a look that I understand: "Brother, you are still young!" Besides, the Xiaoyan girl is not bad, and she is also ingenious. If you're sincere, don't miss it! You still have to learn more from me!"

Zhang Danshen listened to Wu Kang's words, didn't say a word, looked back at the small courtyard behind him, and kept up with everyone's pace.

…………

Hedong County, is the Qin period, has continued to this day, under the jurisdiction of more than 20 counties, because of the capital Luoyang is closer, the number of merchants and visitors is huge, it is really a rich place.

When the group came to the city, they saw that the people and the caravan were divided into two rows, and a long line was formed from a distance, and they were checked by the soldiers on duty at the city gate.

"Strange old man, look at the caravan, why do they all hand over money to the soldiers on duty, what is this for?" Wu Kang looked suspicious.

The old beggar didn't even raise his eyelids and said, "This is called consuming beauty!" It is the custom of every caravan to enter the city! In layman's terms, it's about giving money!"

"What happens if you don't give money?"

"How can it be? Either come and go there, if the soldiers on duty are not happy! If you find something out of nothing out of your goods, you'll be in jail! The old beggar shook his head and replied.

"What consumes the United States, it is clearly bribes in broad daylight! Lang Lang Qiankun, is there still a royal law? When Wu Kang heard this, he clenched his fists and said.

The person standing in front of Wu Kang smiled when he heard this: "Wang Fa? The king's law is for the poor! Wang Fa is a dispensable waste paper in front of the official master!"

Wu Kang was young and vigorous, and when he heard this, he said: "The Son of Heaven has broken the law, and he is guilty of the same crime as the common people!" In broad daylight, you dare to accept bribes! Isn't that a crime? ”

The man standing in front of Wu Kang was happy when he heard it, turned his head and smiled: "Little brother, I don't think you are that old, in a few more years, the two of us will have the same opinion!" After that, he ignored Wu Kang.

When Wu Kang heard what he said, he was not angry and said: "Cut! No matter how many years from now, I won't see you the same way! What's the difference between that and being slaughtered!"

"Alright, boy, stop arguing! It's time to get into town! The old beggar patted Wu Kang on the shoulder and said.

Wu Kang was unyielding, clenched his fists and said, "No, I'm going to teach them a lesson!"

As soon as he finished speaking, he received a slap on the back of the head.

"Teach whom? Who do you teach? If the wound opens, the old man won't treat you! Are you giving away the old man's medicine powder for nothing? ”

"Wu Kang, calm down, don't cause trouble for the time being!" Guan Shouting also held Wu Kang's shoulder.

Wu Kang, who was excited, was persuaded by the two of them to give up and stop shouting.

Soon, the group arrived at the city gate, ready to be inspected by the soldiers.

Zhang Dan participated in Wu Ming's inspection and was soon released. It was Wu Kang's turn to be in the middle, and the soldier stepped forward, first stared at Wu Kang, and then started to search.

Wu Kang was unpleasant by the soldier's hand touching around, and when the soldier touched his waist, he suddenly touched Wu Kang's waist card.

"What is this?" The soldier asked.

Wu Kang is also above board, thinking that he is not afraid of crooked shadows, I am afraid that you will find something, take out the golden waist card, and sway in front of the soldiers.

The leader of the soldiers on the side looked at the glittering waist card, his eyes lit up, his heart was full of wealth, and he stepped forward and stretched out his hand in front of Wu Kang.

"What?" Although Wu Kang knew what it meant, he still pretended to be deaf and dumb and asked.

"What else could there be? Silver!" The leader frowned and whispered in Wu Kang's ear.

"Nope! Why should I be asked for money? ”

Wu Kang saw that the leader actually reached out to him to ask for silver, and his heart was furious.

"No?! Then you won't be able to enter the city today! Come on, take this spy down on me!"

When the surrounding soldiers heard this, they came forward together and surrounded Wu Kang.

"When did I become a spy?! Don't spew blood!" Hearing this, Wu Kang clenched his fists and asked angrily.

"Lao Tzu said that you are a spy, you are a spy! Take it for me!"

"Little brother, I advise you to get acquainted with each other, otherwise you will be in prison, but you will feel better!" The soldiers and thieves on the side looked at Wu Kang with a sneer.

"In prison? It's up to you to catch me! ”

"Toast without eating, eat and drink, do it!"

As soon as the leader gave an order, the surrounding soldiers were no longer polite, and beckoned to Wu Kang with the blades in their hands.

Wu Kang naturally did not sit still, and waved his fist to greet the soldiers who surrounded him.

Soon, three or five soldiers were quickly thrown to the ground, and Wu Kang and the soldiers got into a fight.

Guan Shouting and the old beggar glanced at each other, and said in unison: "Let's fight first!"
