Volume 2 - Growth Chapter 39 - The Grace of Eating Melons

On the three poles of the day, people come and go in Hedong County, and it is very lively.

However, the most lively thing today is not the street market where people came and went in the past, but the entrance of the government office that made the people "frightened" in the past!

In the past, the entrance of the government office was extremely deserted, but today's bustle greatly exceeds the bustling street market.

The entrance of the government has been blocked by officers and soldiers. The people are three layers inside and three layers outside, surrounding the entrance of the government street, and one by one stretches their necks to look in. When the people passing by saw this, they also joined the watch-and-see army.

"What's going on? Why are so many people gathered at the gate of the mansion?!"

"I don't know? I heard that someone was clicked at the door of the government! ”

"Huh? Killing people at the door of the government is too arrogant, isn't it?!"

"Who knows? I've heard that this is a grudge between people in the martial arts!"

"Alas! The rivers and lakes are not easy to mix, if you are not careful, your life will be lost!"

The people outside were talking, but the yamen hall inside was extremely depressed.

The county keeper sat on top of the high hall, and when he raised his eyes, he could see the corpse outside the yamen. At this moment, the county guard can be described as a mixed taste.

The county guard had a gloomy face, and in his heart he greeted the thirty-six generations of the ancestors of the murderer a thousand times.

"My lord, I've already experienced the corpse! The deceased had a knife mark on his neck, apparently killed by a single knife! The murderer is a high ...... with a knife"

"Shut up! Carry the body down for me!"

The county keeper became more and more irritable, and he was furious at the man who was reporting the situation. When he heard the words, he had to give up his orders.

The county guard sitting in the high hall was not thinking about how to find out the murderer, but thinking about how to explain it to the head of the family!

After all, these two are both members of the Cui family. The head of the house gave thousands of instructions before leaving. As a result, as soon as the front foot left, the two people on the back foot died and disappeared!

If the Cui family ordered someone to come to the door to ask for an explanation, the head of the family would not offend the Cui family for himself! In this case, the next person to die will be yourself!

Thinking of this, the county guard couldn't wait to reach out and pump his two big mouths, and he couldn't wait to beat the dead crane fairy cloud.

You say this guy, why do you have nothing to provoke so many enemies? If you have an enemy, forget it! If you don't die well, you die today; It's not good for you to die somewhere, but you still die at the entrance of your own yamen.

Isn't this a pit for yourself, not only to give yourself a slap before you die, but also to pull yourself to the funeral?

The more the county guard thought about it, the more annoyed he became, and after thinking about it carefully, he had to order the whole city to search for clues. I hope to find the murderer and give the Cui family an explanation, so that it is possible that I will not become a substitute ghost in the conflict between the two families!

…………

Let's say that Wu Ming and Zhang Danshen, who were separated from the three of them, looked at the street at the moment, full of portraits of the three wanted people, and couldn't help but get anxious.

"Boy, what do you say now? Could they have been out of town already? Wu Ming looked at the wanted portrait and said.

Zhang Danshen shook his head when he heard this: "Don't worry, seniors, I know Wu Kang and the two seniors, they won't leave us!" Now the three of them are wanted, and they may be hiding somewhere in the city, but it is inconvenient to come out. ”

After some discussion, the two decided to stay in the city for the time being and inquire about the whereabouts of the three of them.

The two of them carried their burdens and came to the inn to stay, but because they were not entangled, they were kicked out by the innkeeper.

In desperation, Wu Ming could only take Zhang Danshen to the market to do his old job and set up a medical stall.

Since the two had just arrived, although there were many people in the market, none of them came forward to seek medical advice.

Until noon, the sun rises higher and higher. The two were sweating profusely, but they still didn't open!

Zhang Salvia is uncomfortable, and when he sees it going on like this, then the two of them will have to drink the northwest wind when they are late!

The old farmer who sold melons on the side, seeing that the two of them were sweating profusely, kindly cut a melon and gave it to the two. The two took the old farmer's melon and thanked him repeatedly.

"Small meaning, if the two of you really have medical skills, why spend it here in vain?" The old melon farmer spoke.

"Oh! What are the good places to go? ”

Zhang Danshen immediately understood the melon farmer's words and immediately asked.

The melon farmer smiled slightly and said: "It's not a good place to go, I don't know if the two of you can hear that the eldest son of the Xue family has a strange disease, and he has seen all the doctors in the county, not to mention, even the imperial doctor can't start!" Why don't you go and try it? ”

Zhang Danshen heard that he was guilty: "Uncle, you don't know something, the doctor doesn't lock the door, this is a truth since ancient times." If the two of us come to the door and fail to cure Xue Gongzi, wouldn't it be asking for hardship? ”

"Alas, little brother, you can rest assured! Old Man Xue is an only son of Xue Gongzi, for Xue Gongzi's illness, Old Man Xue has already set up a medical appointment notice in front of the mansion, as long as the doctor is willing to give it a try, those who go will not refuse!"

When Zhang Danshen heard this, he couldn't help but move, and asked Wu Ming on the side: "Senior, do you think it can be done?" ”

"I don't know, but don't try! That's definitely not going to work!"

"Hehe, if the two of you receive the reward, don't forget the grace of eating melons today!"

The two of them did not forget to answer, and after thanking the melon farmers, they collected the stall, asked the direction of Xuefu, and went straight to Xuefu.

The two came all the way to Xuefu, only to see that the door of the house was two feet high, eight feet wide, there were two stone lions and four big red pillars standing at the door, and there were two family members standing at the door. The door of the house was wide open, and there were two small servants standing in front of the door.

Outside the gate of the house, there is also a "notice for seeking medical treatment" that the melon farmer said. ”

The two of them looked at the door of the mansion for a while, and after three or four Lang Zhong with medical boxes on their shoulders entered, they shook their heads and sighed under the steward's send-off.

The two of them watched so many Lang Zhong go in and out, but they both sighed and sighed, and they couldn't help but be curious about the illness of the Xue family's son.

When the housekeeper sent another Lang Zhong out of the house, the two hurriedly stepped forward and called the old housekeeper.

I saw that the housekeeper was a short, short, fat, kind-faced old man.

"Two, but what's the matter?" The old butler turned around and asked the two with a smile.

As soon as the two of them said what they meant, the housekeeper heard that they had come to the house to see a doctor for their son, and hurriedly invited the two into the house.

The housekeeper took the two of them all the way to the outside of the hall, and he ran into the hall to report to the head of the house.

The head of the Xue family was drinking tea with the imperial doctor invited from the imperial court in the hall at the moment. When he heard that it was Lang Zhong who came to see a doctor, he was not surprised and asked the housekeeper to take the two of them into the hall.

"Alas! Master Xue, with all due respect, Mr. Xue is afraid of a rare illness in the world! The old man was helpless, so he could only use decoction to protect Xue Gongzi's five organs and prevent his condition from worsening.

As for the recovery, the old man is not sure. Most of the Jianghu Langzhong are sideways, and they just come to the house to cheat and eat and drink, Master Xue still doesn't want to waste his efforts!"

Seeing the old housekeeper walk out of the hall, the imperial doctor took a sip of tea and said disdainfully.

When Old Man Xue heard this, his face was a little ugly, but he didn't answer.

The housekeeper soon led Zhang Dan and Wu Ming to the hall. After entering the hall, the two bowed their hands.

"You don't have to be polite!"

"Humph!"

Old Man Xue hurriedly asked the two of them to get up, but the imperial doctor on the side snorted with his nose. Zhang Danshen naturally caught a glimpse, but when he thought that the two of them had just arrived, he didn't care about it.

"Master Xue, I don't know where Ling Gongzi is? I also asked Master Xue to take the two of us to the diagnosis. Wu Ming got up and said.

"Good! Two of you, please!"

Old Man Xue hurriedly got up, and the housekeeper followed behind him, leading Wu Ming and Zhang Danshen to Xue Gongzi's room. And the imperial doctor also followed behind everyone, not for anything else, just to see the old and young in front of him make a fool of themselves!

"This is the dog!"

When he came to the room, Master Xue pointed to the unconscious man lying on the bed.

Wu Ming stepped forward to check, and saw that this Xue Gongzisheng had a dignified appearance, just like a scholar. The housekeeper brought a stool for Wu Ming, and Wu Ming immediately sat down to check his pulse.

Wu Ming felt Xue Gongzi's pulse, and couldn't help frowning.

"Master Xue, Ling Lang's pulse is stable and strong, much stronger than ordinary people, how can he be unconscious?"

"Alas! I'm annoyed by what the doctor is saying from you!"

Without waiting for Master Xue to speak, the imperial doctor standing on the side said impatiently.

As soon as Wu Ming heard that this person was a Tai Doctor, he hurriedly said: "It turns out that it is a Tai Doctor, it is really disrespectful!" Dare to ask for your name? ”

The imperial doctor snorted and said, "The daimyo doesn't dare, Wuliang is also!"

Wu Ming asked the name, but he no longer paid attention to Wu Liang, and said to Master Xue: "Dare to ask the head of the Xue family, when did the son fall into a coma?" How many days have you been in a coma? ”

On the third day of the Lunar New Year, after returning home in the afternoon to finish dinner, Ling Lang fell unconscious! It's been more than half a decade now!"

"Half-ten? Does the head of the family know what Childe did that day? Wu Ming spoke again.

Old Man Xue turned his head to look at the old housekeeper behind him, and the old housekeeper hurriedly stepped forward and said: "That day, after the son finished practicing in the morning, after breakfast, he said that he would make an appointment with a friend, and then he went out of the house, and he didn't return home drunk until the evening."

Everything was normal that night, but early the next morning, when the servants of the palace came to clean up the room, they found that Childe was unconscious!"

Wu Ming nodded when he heard this: "On the third day of the junior high school, Xue Gongzi was at home, did he eat anything that shouldn't be eaten?!"

The old butler shook his head without hesitation and said, "No, the child's breakfast that day was the same as usual." ”

"After Xue Gongzi came back, did he eat anything?" Wu Ming asked again.

And the response was also that the old housekeeper shook his head in denial.

Seeing this, the imperial doctor on the side couldn't help but snort coldly: "What are you doing?" How can seeing a doctor be the same as investigating a case?!"

When Wu Ming heard this, he couldn't help frowning and said: "Don't you know that Imperial Doctor Wu didn't know that the former divine doctor Bian Que created it, and he asked about the four diagnosis methods?" ”

Imperial Physician Wu sneered and said, "The name of the divine doctor, this imperial physician knows himself!" But how can a warlock compare to the divine doctor Bian Que? Do you also have the art of resurrecting the dead? ”

The implication is that you Wu Ming is a warlock in the rivers and lakes, how can you compare to the name of the divine doctor Bian Que!

Zhang Danshen couldn't hold back anymore at the moment, and also smiled and sneered: "The two of us are Jianghu warlocks, how can we learn the art of resurrecting the dead?" Dare to ask if Imperial Doctor Wu has it in his pocket? ”
