Chapter 48: Evil Disease

I don't know how many times I forged, the gauze wrapped around the palm of the blacksmith surnamed Xue was already oozing blood, the two alloys were gradually broken into one, and the knife embryo was gradually formed.

Lin Xixue knew that the follow-up would be boring fine adjustments and sharpening knives, and she didn't have much patience to continue to observe.

She decided to go to the bookstore first to see if there were any books about herbal medicine.

It's just that the blacksmith asked the statue for the so-called "heavenly fire" means, which really made her a little frightened.

I thought it was just an ordinary blacksmith in the market, but I didn't expect that secretly he would use such a strange method.

She felt that if she touched the cyan flame that burned nothing, she would have to shed her skin even if she didn't die.

After all, it was a flame that could reden a mud cauldron in a few breaths, and she couldn't imagine how hot it must be.

It seems that in the future, even seemingly ordinary mortals must not be taken lightly, who knows what strange things these people have worshipped.

If you are not careful, you are afraid that you will capsize in the gutter.

But then again, the original purpose of this flame was obviously not to be an enemy, after all, it was bathing and changing clothes, and burning incense and bowing, and it had already been cut down by someone in actual combat.

It's just that the blacksmith's statue is the old gentleman...... In the myths and stories of the previous life, there is also a god who is very familiar to Lin Xixue, also called Taishang Laojun.

Is there a connection between the two?

Alas, the lack of information is really sad, and she still can't figure out what the world is like.

However, since this blacksmith also uses such strange powers, will he be able to see the black feather coat on my body?

When I go back to get the knife, I'll have to ask him.

While thinking about it, she came to the door of one of the largest bookstores in the city.

However, when the customers and shopkeepers in the bookstore saw her coming, a woman coming, they all had a strange look on their faces, which was a look of disdain and some mockery.

After all, there were not many people who could read in ancient times, and women who could read were even rarer.

But she didn't care about everyone's reaction at all, and walked into the bookstore without humility or arrogance. Although his height is lower than that of many men, his cold temperament can bully frost and snow.

She raised her head, and her sense swept through it to find the grass and trees she needed.

In fact, with her memory, she could directly use her divine sense to write down all the books in a few breaths, but now she is not short of money, so don't do such a shameful thing.

After all, this herb and tree chronicle is also a little bit of information collected and sorted out by the author, especially in ancient times, the exchange of information was not developed, and this kind of work was even more difficult to do.

After paying the money and buying the grass and trees, she inquired to the shopkeeper: "Does the shopkeeper know where the City God Temple is?" ”

"North of the city, you walk all the way north along the cross street in the city, and you see it."

Sure enough, it was in the north of the city, and it seemed that the strange coffin carrying team last night might really be sent by the city god lord to collect the spirit.

Isn't this a big oolong under the wrong and yin of the yang......

"Thank you." Lin Xixue bowed her hand, thanked her in a somewhat cold voice, and quickly left the bookstore.

In the bookstore behind him, a young scholar dressed in a Ruyi Lingyun dark gauze round-necked robe unfolded his folding fan and fanned the wind, and said with emotion: "When did we believe that Liangcheng had such a strong woman!" ”

Several scholars around him surrounded him like stars and moons, and said with a smile: "Young Master Gu is going to be true again this time?" ”

"Ridiculous, what do you call it, every girl and I are invested in true love!" He closed the folding fan, lightly tapped his neck, and said regretfully: "It's a pity that I don't know where this girl's family lives." ”

"As long as Young Master Gu wants to, is it possible that there are still people who can't be found?"

"What do you know, I'm a gentleman, and I'm not an arrest criminal, I want to exchange sincerity for truth, understand?"

The scholar surnamed Gu tapped the speaker's head with a folding fan, and said "education" in a positive tone.

"Young Master Gu, this girl has just visited the City God Temple, obviously she is going to visit in a few days, why not wait at the gate of the City God Temple in advance, I think we will definitely meet again." Another scholar was on the sidelines.

"Great idea! Come to my house in a few days to receive your reward! He tapped his disapproval on the shoulder with his folding fan.

How did this group of people know that their conversation was clearly heard by Lin Xixue.

Lin Xixue didn't even bother to sneer, thinking that this group of cynical sons and brothers had better not come to get involved. Otherwise, I don't mind letting them feel the great horror between life and death.

Although she no longer has any hope in this world and is indifferent to everything, this does not mean that she has a good temper.

Leaving the bookstore, she walked directly to the pharmacy, and on the way, she finished reading the herbs and trees with her divine sense, and knew what the various herbs used by the great witch were exactly what they were.

After grabbing the medicine at the pharmacy, she prepared to go back to the blacksmith to see how it was going.

As soon as he was about to leave the door of the medicine shop, several tall figures rushed in, and Lin Xixue had to avoid it.

When I looked closely, it turned out to be the poor people from Yunzhou Mansion, and the clothes of those poor people were the same as those last night.

The leader of the messenger looked around when he entered the door, and shouted to the pharmacy guy, "Where is Mr. Baili?" ”

"Sir, he is still resting in the back room, if a few officials need to consult a doctor, they can come back in the afternoon, Mr. is old and needs to rest."

"Don't be in the afternoon, we must invite Mr. Baili now, early this morning, Lord Wei and a few brothers who stopped the spirit Si Wei don't know why, they suddenly fell ill, and now people are no longer dead, they are all waiting for Mr. Baili to help!"

Lin Xixue seemed to be standing aside obediently, but what she was thinking in her heart was, Lord Wei, the one who dealt with the walking corpse last night?

If it was really the one who dealt with the walking corpse, could there be some connection between his strange disease and the walking corpse?

She decided to continue watching the play on the sidelines.

The young man looked embarrassed and said, "Sir has been providing free medical treatment for the displaced people outside the city for free these days, and he has become ill from hard work, and now he is only afraid of ......."

"Yixuan...... cough cough cough ...... Remember the first day I took you...... Ahem...... How was it taught! ”

Before the man could finish his words, he was interrupted by a somewhat weak rebuke from the back hall of the pharmacy.

Lin Xixue guessed that the owner of this voice was probably Mr. Baili in the mouth of this guy named "Yixuan".

"Sir, but you ...... now," Yixuan argued.

"Ahem...... I let you memorize, and on the first day you got started, I taught you something. ”

"Yes...... Whoever heals the sick must be calm, have no desires and no desires, first have great compassion, and vow to save the suffering of the soul......" Yixuan's voice sounded very aggrieved.

"And whatever!"

"Don't look ahead and look backwards, worry about good luck and evil, and protect your life......" his voice became smaller and smaller.

"Transcribe these words a thousand times tonight!" Mr. Baili's voice was weak, but it exuded an unmistakable majesty.

Mr. Baili put on his underwear, leaned against the wall and walked out slowly, bowed to the group of messengers, and said: "The old man has no way to teach the apprentices, so that everyone can see and laugh, I will take care of it and go to the diagnosis and treatment." ”

Lin Xixue looked at Mr. Baili, his gray hair was withered and messy, and his eyes were already dark around him, and he didn't know how long he hadn't rested.

In this situation, he still insists on going out to diagnose patients, if he is really just to treat diseases and save people, and he has no selfishness, it is indeed very admirable.

However, what is the state of this world, Lin Xixue has already experienced it personally.

Can there really be such a selfless saint in this world?

Lin Xixue was a little skeptical......
