Chapter Twenty-Eight: Xianheping
Liu Wenyuan is a thin old man with strong spirits, and as soon as he arrived, he discussed medical knowledge with Chaoge, and it seems that he is a very obsessed Lang Zhong.
Because of the restrictions on residence, Chaoge only left a maid and a manservant to take care of Liu Wenyuan and Liu Niannian's daily life. The maid's name is Xiaocui, she is smart and clever, and she has some strength, just enough to take care of Niannian. The manmaid's name is Liu Fang, he has followed Liu Wenyuan for more than ten years, and with Liu Wenyuan's surname, he is also a disciple and a servant, equal to half a son, and he also has some opinions on medicine.
In addition, he was followed by Xiang Rong, the big shopkeeper of the "Banjiantang", Liu Wenyuan ordered him to accompany him to familiarize him with the road, and told him that he could report if there was something important in the "Banjiantang". After all, the business of "Banjiantang" has become bigger, and he needs to be at the helm. After the song was arranged, Liu Wenyuan asked Xiang Rong to lead the rest of the people who came with him to return to the Liu family's mansion at the foot of the mountain.
Liu Niannian thought more thoughtfully, and arranged for someone to come another day to rebuild a few wooden houses for kitchens and rooms, and also to prepare two guest rooms, so he had a plan to live for a long time.
For this reason, Chaoge could only smile wryly and let her arrange. This would have been impossible when Master was alive, and now he has to let it go.
Their arrival relieved Chaoge's miscellaneous work, and he usually did everything by himself, and after Li Chengtang came, he had almost no time, and now he had time to go down the mountain. Chaoge rode the white crane Xiaobai when he went down the mountain, so when the land of the Three Jin Dynasty saw him, they called him "Crane Keeper" or "Crane Boy".
Next, the job of taking care of Li Chengtang became Liu Fang, decocting and boiling medicine every day, and taking care of it carefully. Liu Wenyuan also came to see Li Chengtang's injuries from time to time, although this old man is not from the rivers and lakes, but in addition to being proficient in the treatment of incurable diseases, he has studied internal injuries in the meridians and sword injuries, and it is estimated that Chaoge has taught him a lot.
Li Chengtang got acquainted with him in a few days, and he also knew more things about this place.
This place is called Xianheping, and it is the most sacred place at the foot of Wutai Mountain. It is named because it is common to hear cranes chirping. At the beginning, outsiders heard the long song of the cranes here, so they went into the mountains to look for them and visit the immortals. However, this place is shrouded in clouds and mist all the year round, and the mountains are stacked on top of each other, and no one can find them in the end, so they have to give up in the end.
Later, there were two strange people in the land of Sanjin, an old and a young man, he often rode a crane from the sky to help the poor people, outwitted the officers and soldiers and bandits, because they never left their names, so they all called them "crane keepers" or "crane boys".
Liu Wenyuan told Li Chengtang that the land of the Three Jin Dynasty is full of miasma because of the Taihang Mountain that stretches for hundreds of miles, and there are many mountain bandits, and there are also many masters of the rivers and lakes and heroes of the green forest. As a result, the place is very chaotic and the people are very miserable. However, the local officers and soldiers did not do anything, and colluded with each other with the mountain bandits, which made the people's livelihood even more difficult. He was the first to save the sick and was chased by the mountain bandits, the luthier Lei Wei, only to receive a nine-sky ring pendant, since then regarded as a family heirloom, but it led to the disaster of killing.
Liu Wenyuan went on to say that the two strange men often appeared in the sky, showing miracles, or making thieves lose their way, or making officers and soldiers fearful, or flying swords to kill the wicked. The people all worshipped, because the two of them rode the crane, they thought that they were from the place where the crane was singing, so the crane flat became a holy place.
Li Chengtang listened to what Liu Wenyuan said, and knew that it was Chaoge and his master who used the number of strange men to punish the wicked, and the people did not understand the truth, so they naturally regarded it as an immortal law. But they can actually use a flying sword to kill people, that martial arts rank has at least reached the Arhat realm, isn't it the first person in the world! I thought about how to ask Chaoge for a lesson or two.
Liu Wenyuan then told Li Chengtang that the Taihang Mountains were full of miasma and plagues often occurred, and the two of them used immortal medicine to treat sentient beings and save many people. He once collected medicine into the mountains a few years ago, thinking that there must be unknown fairy grass here, so he strayed into the deep mountains, and when he was dying, he was rescued back to Xianheping by Chaoge. That's why I had a fairy relationship, had a relationship with them, and learned a lot of medical science.
Later, even if he knew their identities, he never told outsiders for fear that the laity would disturb the immortal cultivation.
Later, the old immortal Weng feathered into the sky, and Liu Wenyuan also accompanied Chaoge here for a long time. This time, Chaoge saved him, which made him sigh with emotion, and he even had the idea of escaping.
Li Chengtang smiled and comforted him: "The old gentleman is clever and benevolent, it is when the people need it, how can he speak lightly." ”
Liu Wenyuan said sadly: "The people don't fight with the officials, the state assassin Shi Chengquan has a huge power, and I don't know when it will be over, and the old man is afraid that he will be uneasy." ”
Li Chengtang smiled, "Uncle Liu, don't worry, when Chengtang's health is better, he will help you settle the official mansion, and there will be a way to solve the problem one by one." ”
Liu Wenyuan was skeptical, and he didn't know whether what Li Chengtang said was true or false. Li Chengtang smiled silently, he knew that this place belonged to the jurisdiction of Hedong Province, and it used to belong to An Lushan, and now the imperial court had just appointed Wang Zhongsi as the envoy of Hedong Province, so he was ready to repair a letter to Wang Zhonghe.
While the two were talking, they suddenly heard the sound of the crane's chirping, and Chaoge jumped down from the crane quilt with his thoughts.
This time Chaoge went out on a trip, and Nian Nian was bound to follow. He had no choice but to take her there. Liu Niannian had never flown like this at high altitude, and when he arrived on the ground, he was still frightened and pale.
Li Chengtang joked, "It's good to sit a few more times with Miss Nian." ”
Chao Ge was looked at by Li Chengtang with a look of embarrassment.
Fortunately, Niannian accompanied him out this time, and the girl's family was careful and came back with some clothes. Li Chengtang fought with Nangong Qingwu, his clothes were damaged, and it was winter now, and the temporary clothes were all Chaoge, which was very inappropriate.
Li Chengtang thanked Niannian for his kindness, went into the house to change his clothes and came out, and put on a dark color coat on his body, and his tall and handsome body immediately showed his difference, Liu Niannian looked at Li Chengtang and laughed: "Li Gongzi is handsome and handsome, and he is a fairy-like character." ”
Li Chengtang said with a smile: "It's just a pair of skins, Miss Nian made fun of it, Brother Chao is the fairy in the game world." ”
At this time, Chaoge also changed his clothes and came out, changing his original coarse cloth clothes. The splendid satin was painted with silk threads, cloud boots, and ring belts, and also draped in a dark black and crimson robe. He laughed at himself: "My son still feels more comfortable in his original clothes." Having said that, Nian Nian insisted on buying him the clothes he still wore on his body.
Although Chaoge is not as handsome as Li Chengtang, the free and easy and natural closeness makes people quiet, just like the big brother next door, which suddenly makes everyone feel dependent. Especially the short black beard, neatly trimmed, and a little more cute in the maturity. It's memorable.
Nian Nian's eyes were full of affection, looking at the simple and unpretentious but heroic Chao Song, he was stupid for a while, and showed a blush.
Chaoge came back this time and brought back a piece of news. Said that the rivers and lakes have not been very calm recently, and there was a martial arts battle of good and evil in Yongqiu, Henan Province, and the righteous faction of the rivers and lakes led by Shaolin besieged the evil faction of the rivers and lakes headed by Xiao Gushan, and finally was killed and injured by the lonely people of Xiao Gushan, and escaped from the encirclement, saying that he would kill all the righteous people in the rivers and lakes. It makes the wind and lakes rumor, and everyone protects themselves. In the end, even the master of Shaolin Temple, who had not been out of the mountain for many years, reappeared in the rivers and lakes, looking for loneliness everywhere. Later, I heard that the Ran family, a martial arts family in Henan Province, was also involved, and sent all the masters of the Ran family to search for this person everywhere. I even heard that in order to catch this person, the eldest lady of the Ran family even fought against the master of Xiaogushan, and in the end, no one could be found.
It is said that all this is because of a sword, and the owner of this sword is called Li Chengtang.
Chao Ge stared at Li Chengtang and asked with a smile, "It can't be Brother Li, right?" ”
Since Li Chengtang came to his senses, he wanted to talk about his experience several times, but he never had the opportunity. When he heard this, he told his own experience, especially the battle with Nangong Qingwu and the reason for his injury.
Liu Wenyuan and Liu Niannian are not clear about these rivers and lakes and military affairs, but Chaoge often travels abroad and has heard about it to some extent. After listening to it, he laughed and was very happy, and said: "If it's really Brother Li, Chaoge can meet you and fortunately you are injured, this is Chaoge's luck, the brother broke the enemy by 2,000 by himself, and he is about to be rumored to be the god of war!" ”
Li Chengtang smiled bitterly and said in his heart: You are lucky, but I am guilty!
Liu Niannian stared at Chao Ge with wide eyes, "Is Gongzi Li a very powerful character?" ”
Chao Ge slashed Li Chengtang's sword to the top ten masters, killed 2,000 Turkic cavalry by himself, and Huaiyuan retreated from the enemy with 30,000, and explained to Liu Niannian a series of battle examples.
Liu Niannian said adoringly: "It turns out that Li Gongzi is a big hero, Niannian is really a blessing, I can see the two big heroes in the world." In her heart, Chaoge is the first hero.
Li Chengtang smiled embarrassedly: "I'm not a big hero here, now I'm just an ordinary person who has no power to restrain a chicken." ”
Chao Ge comforted Li Chengtang and said: "Brother Li, don't worry, with my Chao Ge here, I will definitely heal your body." ”
Liu Wenyuan was also next to him to comfort Li Chengtang.
Li Chengtang looked at Chao Ge and said: "I myself am still second, the Jingjing girl of the Ran family is because of what happened in the next place, please pay more attention to the movements of the rivers and lakes in the near future, in case you encounter it, don't forget to help and save you, Chengtang thanked Brother Chao first." After speaking, he solemnly gave Chaoge a salute.
Chao Ge helped Cheng Tang up and quipped: "It seems that the relationship between Brother Li and Miss Ran is not ordinary, it is natural to save people, why should Brother Li be polite." ”
Nian Nian interjected: "I don't know what kind of character that Jingjing girl is, if she can be so concerned about Li Gongzi, she must be like a heavenly beauty, Nian Nian really hopes to see her."
Li Chengtang smiled bitterly, Ran Jingjing had a deep affection for him, and he really didn't know how to deal with this feeling.
Thinking about spending the current time first, and putting the future things later, he changed the topic and said: "Cheng Tang and Jie Du have some friendship with Lord Wang Zhonghe, and now Daizhou is under his control, and Daizhou Assassin Shi is bullying, Cheng Tang wants to write a letter to Lord Wang Zhonghe, let him teach this dog official a lesson, how about sending it to Lord Wang?" ”
Chao Ge smiled and said, "With Xiaobai here, it's very simple to send a letter." Nian Nian heard that Li Chengtang wanted to ask the official family to come forward for his father, and he also thanked Li Chengtang. The common people are afraid of officials, but now they know that there are bigger officials who stand up for them, and their hearts are much quieter.
Li Chengtang finished writing the letter and handed it to Chaoge. Chao Ge walked up to Xiaobai and exchanged a few words with it. The crane was very psychic, and seemed to know the meaning of the song, picked up the letter, and took off to the west.
