Chapter Seventy-Nine: The Monster by the Well
The brush leaned on the inkstone, and Situ Xi took the two prescriptions handed over by Bian Lao.
"Childe can write it down, and the medicine made according to the recipe on the left side can be taken orally, and taking it can activate the circulation; The one on the right is a list of medicinal baths, soaked for a quarter of an hour after practicing martial arts, which can be used to dissolve blood stasis and speed up the recovery of injuries. ”
When you meet a good person, you are still a great good person.
Picking up the prescription and looking at it carefully, he had heard of most of the medicinal herbs, only a few that he had never heard, but he was also a layman.
Bian Lao just said that this was his secret recipe, but it was really generous to give the prescription to others without any taboo like this.
Of course, Situ Xi did not feel that this recipe was detrimental to his health.
"Thank you so much for being old Bian, this is really helpful."
"Childe doesn't need to care, just raise your hands." Bian Lao stroked his beard and smiled, "Let's take the pulse first." ”
……
After some inquiry, Bian Lao prescribed Situ Xi again.
Today's arrival of the imperial doctor was only to complete the task assigned by His Majesty, and he was not injured in yesterday's incident.
The result that Bian Lao came to was similar to what the imperial doctors who came to see Situ Xi before, he was generally healthy, but he was a little tired.
After instructing Situ Xi to exercise diligently, Bian Lao picked up the medicine box and got up to say goodbye.
In the afternoon, he would come again, and when the time came, he would bring some medicinal herbs from the palace.
Situ Xi personally sent Bian Lao out of the door, for some reason, this old man had a very good attitude towards him, and when he left, he said that he would bring him a bottle of lightweight medicine in the afternoon.
Isn't it because of your own kindness? Situ Xi touched his chin.
However, the so-called medicine for weight loss should refer to the medicinal materials that can reduce the body and prolong life after taking it, similar to ginseng, I remember to see it in "Shennong's Materia Medica".
Shaking his head, Situ Xi turned around and walked towards the courtyard.
Qixian didn't come this morning, it should have taken into account yesterday's events and deliberately let him rest for a day, but Situ Xi was not ready to slack off, he planned to ponder the "Cobblestone Fist Method" again.
But halfway back to the room, Situ Xi was stopped by a whisper that suddenly rushed in front of him.
"That...... Uncle, the slave has something to tell you. ”
……
"Youkai?"
In the inner room, Situ Xi sat on a chair and looked at the whisper sitting on the bed with a strange expression.
whispering to hear Situ Xi's raised voice, she bit her lip and grabbed the dress that was draped down her knees with both hands.
"Uncle, it's true, the slave maid will never be mistaken, I was going to tell the young lady when I got up today, but she entered the study early in the morning, and the slave didn't dare to disturb her."
"Whispering, didn't you get better from the cold last time? In the afternoon, when Bian Lao comes, let him take a look for you, you still have to have a good rest recently, and there are more people in the family who can share some housework for you, so don't let yourself be too tired. ”
Seeing the serious appearance of whispering, Situ Xi thought that she was sick, or that she hadn't rested well during this time, and her nerves were a little nervous.
"Uncle, there are really monsters!" Seeing that Situ Xi didn't believe her, she was a little anxious, she grabbed Situ Xi's hand, and then lowered her voice and said, "And it's exactly the same as what my uncle described before!" ”
"Last night, the slave woke up once in the night, got up and carried a lantern into the courtyard, walked through the corridor, and saw a dark shadow by the well in the side courtyard......" whispered and swallowed his saliva, his expression was a little terrified.
"The slave was very scared at first, but thinking that maybe he had just woken up and was a little dazed, he thought he was wrong, but when the slave continued to get closer, he ......"
"What's wrong?" Situ Xi suddenly stopped talking when she saw that she was halfway through, and immediately asked her out loud.
"That's clearly a figure, no, it's a monster!"
"The slave maid also took a serious look, it has no clothes on it and no shoes on the bottom, just like the monster in "Demon Magic" that my uncle talked about before."
"But it turned its back to the slave, and it didn't seem to find the slave and maid, and the slave didn't dare to make a sound, nor did it dare to take a step forward, so it had to cover its mouth and move back into the room in small steps."
Whispering as he spoke, he closed his eyes, frowned, and his hands on his chest rose and fell.
"Whispering." Situ Xi suddenly spoke.
"Huh? Uncle, what's wrong? Whispering opened her eyes, it was daytime, she was by her uncle's side again, she was actually not that afraid, and she knew that those monsters in "Demon Magic" were actually controlled by people.
"Have you ever considered going over to give a book review?"
Although she didn't know what the purpose of Whispering was to tell this ghost story to herself, maybe she was here to avenge the revenge she had scared her last time, but Situ Xi had to admit that her performance was very exciting, and what she said was the same as the truth.
The person who can tell the story is exactly the talent he needs at this stage.
"What is storytelling?" She was stunned for a moment, but when she saw Situ Xi's face with a faint smile, she knew that he didn't believe in herself at all, so she was a little annoyed, and reached out and pinched Situ Xi's fingers.
"Uncle! The slave swore that she really saw it, around four watches at night, by the well in the side yard! Dressed as a human, unclothed, sneaky! ”
"Really?" Hearing the whispering voice, Situ Xi saw that she didn't seem to be joking anymore.
"Really! It's true! Whispered and nodded vigorously.
Situ Xi quieted down, in the middle of the night, the figure, and the behavior was weird, he first ruled out the possibility of monsters, after this period of time his understanding of this world deepened, he knew very well that there were no gods and ghosts here, at least the people around him had never seen it since childhood.
If you rule out the possibility that Whisper is wrong, it is that someone sneaked into his house at night, is it an enemy?
Or is it someone from Lu Guogong's side again?
At the well......
"Can I use well water for boiling water for cooking today?"
"Uncle and slave want to go together, slave is afraid that the monster has cast a spell on the well water, and deliberately uses the water stored before in the morning."
Situ Xi threw an appreciative look at this girl, yes, she was still as clever as usual, and she didn't lose her judgment because of fear at critical times.
"Well done, but then again, what are you doing in the middle of the night?"
"This ......," whispered, and her face suddenly flushed.
"Huh?" Situ Xi couldn't figure it out, and stared straight into her eyes.
"Ru......" whispered and blushed, "go to the toilet." ”
