Chapter 157
"Drink a lot of wine, eat a lot of meat......"
Xu Bailu hid a crescent moon in his eyes, half-squinted, the corners of his lips that had been curled early had been lowered, and there was something indescribable in his eyes, confused about the future.
Babbling.
There was a sudden sound of footsteps outside the building, and Xu Bailu subconsciously turned his head to look over.
I saw that on the path outside the courtyard, the servant dressed as a family member was illuminated by a lantern in front of him, and there were several people behind him, and the person who was surrounded by everyone in the middle was thin, staggering when he walked, and his back was slightly slumped, one hand was clenched into a fist under his chin, and he was about to cough twice from time to time, like a leaf in the wind, and he was about to die soon.
"Brother-in-law?"
Xu Bailu raised her eyebrows, that person was Li Wencheng.
On weekdays, Li Wencheng goes back to the house to sleep without dark.
Although he always coughs for half an hour before going to bed, I have never seen him socialize at night!
What's going on tonight?
Xu Bailu was beside Li Wencheng, and he also saw an old man dressed as a warlock, the old man was carrying a box on his shoulder, wearing a knee-length robe, and a peachwood sword on his back.
"Didn't my sister let these liars enter the house again?" Xu Bailu withdrew her feet from the railing of the terrace, landed gently, looked at the group of people passing downstairs, and muttered to herself.
Since Yin Shi this year, Li Wencheng has become more and more superstitious about the tricks on the rivers and lakes, whether it is a monk in the Western Regions or a Taoist priest in the rivers and lakes, he has to invite one home every half a month, and he is known for his practice of exorcising evil spirits.
At first, it was okay, everyone only regarded it as a dead horse as a live horse doctor, but as time went by, the scale of the practice became larger and larger, and the duration became longer and longer.
Over time, the people in the house began to object, especially the eldest sister and the second uncle, the second uncle was even worse, the second uncle was distressed about the money, thinking that these were harmful things, compared to the second uncle's nagging, the eldest sister was more direct, and a few days ago he also issued a special order to order the porter not to allow these liars to enter the house again.
How did it stop a few days before Li Wencheng started to be a demon again?
……
"Dao Chief, I'll stay in the mansion tonight, and I'll have the side room ready."
Li Wencheng in the support of his subordinates, from the side door to invite the Taoist chief into the mansion, along the way stop and go, talk only a few words, different from the previous invited monks, Taoist chief, Li Wencheng found that this Taoist chief was very cold, along the way he ignored his own love and answers, only one by one to look at the situation in the house.
"Dao Chief, Dao Chief? cough cough cough ......" Li Wencheng couldn't help coughing twice, stopped and gasped twice. The old man was forced to stop, looked at Li Wencheng, and said in a hoarse voice:
"No, please ask the donor to find a secluded room, and I will heal the donor...... The donor's illness is not big, but it is not small, but it takes an hour of work, and I guarantee that the donor's medicine will be cured...... You don't have to stay overnight. ”
This old way is such a big breath!
The servants who followed Li Wencheng glanced at each other, and thought in unison.
They all sneered in their hearts, but they didn't dare to say anything on the surface.
Li Wencheng listened, and there was no change in expression on his face.
Just take a new step forward and lead the way: "Then the chief, please come with me." ”
Right now, he can only treat a dead horse as a live horse doctor, how could Li Wencheng not know that this person is talking big and false.
Not much.
Everyone came to a wing room in Xu's house.
The Xu family has a big business, the gardens are scattered, there are countless houses, and there are many people who don't live in them, so it is easy to find a secluded house.
Push open the door and light the candle.
At the signal of the Taoist chief, Li Wencheng drove away the servants and told them to guard outside the courtyard, and no one was allowed to approach.
In the room, the two sat looking at each other.
The Taoist chief was in his sixties, his face was full of wrinkles, his expression was smiling from beginning to end, and he didn't know what good things had happened.
"The Point Guard Is Here"
He stretched out his hand, straightened Li Wencheng's head, pretended to observe for a while, and then rolled up Li Wencheng's sleeve, and when he saw the red sores on his arm, he raised his eyebrows for a while, which was very surprised.
When Li Wencheng saw such a look, he subconsciously lowered his sleeves to hide the red sores on his arms, and changed the topic: "Dao Chang's surname?" Where did you learn from? ”
"The surname is the ghost, Qingzhou Yunlang Mountain!"
Li Wencheng blinked and nodded...... I haven't heard of it, but the surname is quite special.
"Ghost Dao Chief, can there be a cure?" Li Wencheng didn't care so much, and asked again.
He didn't know how many times he had asked this sentence over the years, seventy or eighty times.
But every time, the other party's answer is either to shake his head or to do his best.
He only hoped that this time, the other party's answer could be changed to a different rhetoric, even if it gave him a little hope.
"It's a little thing, it's simple!"
The Ghost Daoist stood up, patted Li Wencheng on the shoulder, and opened the box he had brought with him. Li Wencheng was stunned for a moment, looked at the old Dao who got up, and was still shocked by what he just said: "Ghost Dao Chief, what did you say?" You repeat. ”
The Ghost Dao Elder turned around, and had already taken out a small green bottle from the medicine box, poured three green pills into the palm of his hand, handed them to Li Wencheng, and motioned for him to take them.
"It's a trivial matter, in the eyes of the old man, it's not a big illness."
The ghost path stroked the long beard on his chin, full of confidence.
Li Wencheng looked at the pill in his palm, whether it was poisonous or not, and took a sip. Then, Lao Dao walked behind him, and it was a palm that slapped Li Wencheng's Tianling Gai.
Li Wencheng's child's hole instantly widened, his hair was all shuffled, his whole body was ventilated, and the qi and blood in his body were churning, which was an experience that he had never had before.
With the pill he had just taken, Li Wencheng found that the red wound on his arm was gradually disappearing and healing......
After such an hour, Li Wencheng stood up and found that his body was completely well, and he was shocked beyond measure.
"Dao Chief, this ......"
The ghost Taoist looked very relaxed, just sorting out the medicine box, and without waiting for Li Wencheng to kneel down and kowtow to thank him, he said easily: "The old man said that he was sick, but it was just ......."
"Thank you, thank you, thank you, for saving your life." Li Wencheng hurriedly knelt down and kowtowed three times in a row. It's just that before the second head was finished, he suddenly spit out a mouthful of black blood from his mouth, and the whole person was weak and slumped on the ground, and his whole body was hot.
The ghost path chief helped him sit down and explained, "Don't worry, don't worry, this is a side effect of the medicine, it will only be fine for a quarter of an hour." ”
A quarter of an hour later, Li Wencheng found that his body's hot condition was slowly decreasing, and he felt more and more that the old Tao in front of him was an immortal, so he knocked his head on the ground that he owed just now.
"Thank you for saving your life!"
The ghost Taoist had already finished packing the box, sat down and took a sip of tea, and said, "It's okay...... It's just that the donor still needs to take medicine often for this disease, if not, there is really no cure for the backlash. ”
Li Wencheng understood, immediately stood up, and said earnestly: "The Taoist chief said the number." ”
With the financial resources of the Xu Mansion, what price cannot be paid.
The Ghost Dao Elder shook his head, pursed his lips, and looked pity: "It's not a matter of money, it's that this medicine is too difficult to refine, and the old man has only practiced such a small bottle for half his life." ”
"The Taoist chief said that it doesn't matter, just hand over the raw materials to you."
Now that he finally has hope for life, how can Li Wencheng give up easily, even if he goes up the knife mountain and goes down to the sea of fire, he is willing.
The ghost path chief hesitated again and again, and said slowly: "This medicine is also a loss of conscience...... The other herbs are ordinary, but the medicine is condensed by the hearts and minds of a hundred children. ”
Li Wencheng sat slumped in his chair, his lips slightly open, unable to speak......
Outside the door, hiding in the dark, the girl who eavesdropped was extremely shocked for a while.
