Regarding Cao He's reprimand, Jiang Yun couldn't refute it at all, so he had to look humbly and teachable, and said: "What Elder Cao Xiang said is that this matter was not considered well in his later life. ”

Cao He continued to count for a while, and saw that the other party's attitude was quite humble and sincere, so he was a little relieved, stopped talking, got up and stood up from the ox cart slowly, and wanted to get out of the car, Zhu Yougui and Zhong Jin, who were guarding the side, hurriedly stepped forward to help, and said: "Old Cao Xiang, you have to be leisurely, this big man came from afar, it is really offended." ”

The two of them didn't forget to give Jiang Yun some eye medicine at this time, and their intention was nothing more than to blame Jiang Yun for not inviting each other to the crowd.

Cao He waved his hand and said: "Don't get in the way, don't get in the way, something like this happened in the township, the old man wants to come, and he should come, as a villager elder, it is our responsibility to protect the peace of the party." ”

At this time, everyone was naturally in awe, and praised Cao Xianglao's conscientiousness and high demeanor in unison.

After Cao He got out of the car, Zhong Yanze accompanied him to investigate the scene, Jiang Yun did not accompany him, found Uncle Wang and asked, "Uncle Wang, didn't that old man Zhang come?" The old Zhang Xiang he said is also one of the three villagers in Sanhe Township.

Uncle Wang replied: "Back to the east, Zhang Xianglao said that he would not be free for a while, and he would come back when he had time." ”

He said in his heart, you don't do enough to blame the owner for this matter, don't give a little hard money, where are people willing to come all the way, not all the villagers are as conscientious as Cao Xianglao.

Jiang Yun listened, and didn't say anything, anyway, one finally came, with this old Cao Xiang, Zhong Yanze couldn't cover the sky with one hand, even if he intended to protect Zhong Jin, Zhu Yougui would have some scruples.

Uncle Wang asked again: "Yes, the host, when Xiulian asked me to ask you when I came, this time I will definitely invite the two villagers to have dinner at home at noon, I don't know what specifications of table seats to prepare? Is it eight bowls or twelve bowls?"

Jiang Yun thought for a while, and then said: "Miss Lao Wang is bothered, and there is no need to be so troublesome, just prepare a four-dish and one-soup." ”

Uncle Wang was stunned when he heard this, and said, "Four dishes and one soup? ”

He thought that the other party had committed another stingy mistake, so he persuaded him: "The owner, in the future, you will have to rely on the two village elders to solve the case and uphold justice, this money can't be saved." ”

Jiang Yun said disapprerovingly: "Four dishes and one soup are not simple, the two villagers are here to investigate the case and find the murderer, and they are not here to eat and drink, I don't think they will care about these things." ”

Uncle Wang shook his head secretly, feeling that the proprietor's stupidity was committed again, if the hospitality was good, the two villagers would eat and drink well, and they would work harder, how could the proprietor not know this reason.

However, the other party is the owner, and he is actually just an outsider, so it is not easy to say anything about it, so he had to answer in a muffled voice, called the dog on the side, and whispered a few words to let the other party go.

Cao He and Zhong Yanze carefully inspected the scene, whispering a few times from time to time, while Jiang Yun watched from the side and didn't bother much.

Looking at the lively villagers around, some people dispersed, and some people came after hearing the news, and when it was almost noon, Cao He and Zhong Yanze walked back after surveying the scene again.

Jiang Yun stepped forward and said, "It's not early, the two villagers will come to the cold house for dinner and then make a plan." ”

Zhong Yanze excused himself and said, "This is not very convenient." ”

Zhu Yougui said on the side at this time: "If something happens to Brother Jiang's family, there must be some inconvenience, and the two villagers can come to my house for a light meal." ”

Zhong Jin also invited on the side, Jiang Yun ignored the two, and asked again: "The cold house has already prepared a meal, but it's just coarse tea and light rice, and the two villagers don't have to excuse themselves." Besides, there are still some things to discuss with the two villagers. ”

Seeing this, Zhong Yanze and Cao He agreed with the boat, and secretly said in their hearts, this little brother of the Jiang family does not seem to be hopeless, and he still understands a little bit of reason.

Cao He continued to get on the ox cart, although the ox cart was bumpy, but now there is no need to hurry, it is better, it is lighter than walking, Zhong Yanze is walking with Jiang Yun on the side.

On the way, Zhong Yanze said to Jiang Yun: "Brother Jiang, I discussed with the old man of Cao Xiang, and after dinner, I will call the young people of the whole village to check their footprints first, whether they match the three suspicious footprints at the scene, what do you see." ”

When Jiang Yun heard this, he naturally didn't have any objections, thought about it, and said: "This is very good, but it's just to check the youth of the people in this village, the scope is a bit small, maybe it was a crime committed by people from other villages." ”

Zhong Yanze said: "Brother Jiang is right, let's check it in this village first, if there is no result, then expand the scope to other villages, in short, we can't let go of a clue." ”

Jiang Yun snorted and didn't say anything.

After a while, the group returned to the village and came to the Jiang family's house, Jiang Yun invited the two villagers to go to the living room to sit down, serve tea, and then come to the west wing to check Gu Bo's injury.

Gu Bo is still unconscious now, the maid Youlan has been guarding in front of the bed, and when she saw him coming, she couldn't help but pounce on him and whimper, Jiang Yun saw it, and was comforted for a while.

"Grandpa's feet are ......," Youlan choked up and cried sadly.

Doctor Xu was still there, and Jiang Yun saw that the other party was applying medicine to Gu Bo's feet at the moment, so he walked over and asked, "Doctor Xu, what's wrong with Gu Bo's feet, can it be cured?" ”

Doctor Xu turned around, shook his head, and sighed lightly: "What a sin, the perpetrator is very vicious, and broke the hamstrings of Gu Bo's feet, it is really difficult to recover, what I am treating Gu Bo now is the best black tiger paste that I just brought from Xinghetang in the county, but it seems that it can only temporarily ease his injury, and it is still difficult to completely recover and let Gu Bo stand up again." ”

Youlan listened on the sidelines, crying bitterly and sadly, Jiang Yun hurriedly comforted her again, and then pleaded with Doctor Xu: "Doctor Xu, you must heal Gu Bo's feet, at all costs!"

Doctor Xu didn't say much, at this time, he took out a pair of black plasters from the medicine box next to him, lit it in front of Jiang Yun, and said to him: "Brother Jiang, I want to make it clear to you, this plaster, called Black Tiger Ointment, is the best healing plaster in Xinghetang in the county, and it is made of several rare herbs, Qinghai safflower, hundred-year-old poria, as well as tiger bones, musk and other materials, which has a special effect on the joints and bones, but such a plaster is expensive, and a pair of such plasters is five dollars of silver!"

"The tendons of both of his feet are broken, and he has to apply two sets of plasters to both feet, and he has to change the dressing every day, that is, it costs a tael of silver every day. ”

Speaking of this, he looked at the other party with a serious expression, wanting to see how the other party answered.

The maid Youlan didn't stop crying at this time, and looked at her master with blank eyes. One or two pieces of silver a day, this is a lot of money, even for those big families, I am afraid it is also a huge burden. She wanted her grandfather's feet to get better, but she felt that it was unreasonable to ask Jiang Yun to spend so much money to heal her grandfather, and if Jiang Yun refused to be treated, then she would not have any complaints.

After Jiang Yun heard this, he didn't hesitate and said, "Doctor Xu, what are you telling me about this, what I said just now is already very clear, as long as you can heal Gu Bo, at all costs, silver is not a problem." ”

"Childe--"

Hearing Jiang Yun's words, Youlan looked at each other with tears in her eyes, grateful in her heart, but said in a firm tone, "Childe, your mind, Xiaolan understands, but I don't agree to do this, and grandpa won't agree to it......"

Jiang Yun touched her head and said, "You stupid girl, it's useless for you to disagree, this is my decision." ”

"Childe-" Youlan still wanted to say something, Jiang Yun had already turned to Doctor Xu and said again: "Doctor Xu, just do what I just said, and continue to treat Gu Bo with this black bone paste every day until Gu Bo's injury is healed." ”

Doctor Xu listened, his eyes flashed a little surprised, for Jiang Yun's persistence, he did have a little admiration at the moment, in fact, the other party didn't have to do this at all, and if he didn't do it, no one would accuse him of anything, but the other party still insisted on doing it, which was commendable.

He looked a little respectful, and said, "Little Brother Jiang, you may not have understood what I just said. Applying this black bone paste every day can only temporarily relieve the injury, but it may not be able to heal the broken muscles and bones, I wonder if you still decide to do it. ”

Jiang Yun asked, "Then how can we make Gu Bo's broken hamstring heal?"

Doctor Xu shook his head and said, "It's difficult, it's very difficult, unless you ......."

"Unless what?" Jiang Yun asked.

Doctor Xu said: "Unless you can find a strange thing like Jiao bone paste, you can make such broken muscles and bones burst out again and continue to heal." ”

"Jiao bone paste, I don't know where you can buy this Jiao bone paste?" Jiang Yun asked again.

Doctor Xu shook his head and said: "The main medicine for boiling Jiaogu paste is the muscles and bones of the dragon in the river, which is very rare and rare, but it is impossible to find it, and it is impossible to buy it." ”

Jiang Yun heard this, and said hurriedly: "Please also ask Doctor Xu to show you a clear path, no matter what, I must find this Jiao bone paste and heal Gu Bo's injuries." ”

Doctor Xu was silent for a moment, not wanting to hit the other party again, so he said bluntly: "Maybe there is a collection in the Tanglin Palace, but if Brother Jiang comes to the door to ask for it, even if the Tanglin Palaces are willing to sell, the price will be more than a thousand gold." ”

Jiang Yun was stunned when he heard this, as if he had poured a basin of cold water on his head, but he didn't expect that Jiao bone paste would be so rare. He has this self-knowledge, what is the Tanglin Palace, the existence of such a behemoth, how can it be possible to give him such a precious healing medicine, it is impossible for him to break the sky, not to mention taking 10,000 steps back and saying, the Tanglin Palace, took the wrong medicine, and was willing to give him Jiao bone ointment, and he couldn't take out this thousand gold.
