Chapter 62: The Loyal Guard
"Yuyu, you master and I like to hear such news. It's not enough to just spend money outside, you have to have the opportunity to make money inside. β
"Master, you're a little bit of a money fan now."
"Isn't it good to be a money junkie? Your master and I still want to build a metal chariot, but I don't want to have a chariot and your master's wealth will become zero. "Yuqing is here to discuss the issue of wealth with the soul pen, and the two guards are not calm.
"Little Liuzi, your family lives behind this shop." The older guard looked in that direction and asked.
"Uncle Cousin, could it be my family, my father took the villagers to dispose of the corpse. I haven't been home for days. β
"Bah, there are more people who take the villagers to dispose of the corpses. I haven't heard your dad is feeling unwell. Why don't you just go back and have a look? You don't have to think about it here. β
"Little farmer, you just wait here for a while, I'll go back and take a look and come back." The guard brother said uneasily.
"The owner of the farm is waiting for you here, put your heart in your belly, and I won't run even if my horse is fast. Otherwise, it will hurt both of you. β
"Huh?"
"Ahh The older guard urged, but as soon as he finished speaking, two people ran onto the street. When he saw them, he hurriedly shouted.
"Little Sixth Master, I'm thinking about going to the palace to find you. You go home and see that your father is already dying, and your mother is about to die. β
"Ahh Daddy ......"
After turning the shop, and after another yard, I arrived at Xiao Liuzi's house. Looking at Xiao Liuzi's home, you can know that his family is very wealthy.
At this time, the yard was already in chaos, and those who were crying and busy pulling the white cloth to find hemp rope were all sad. Xiao Liuzi didn't have time to greet these people, so he ran to the courtyard in the middle on horseback. Yuqing and the older guard followed.
This is the main courtyard, and everyone inside and outside the house is crying. Seeing Xiao Liuzi walk into the courtyard, a lady hurriedly cried.
"Sixth brother, go in and see your father and mother for the last time."
Yuqing, who was following behind Xiao Liuzi, stretched out his hand to comb his hair, and took advantage of the situation to freeze the soul that was about to float out. Only then did he follow Xiao Liuzi into the house.
There were two old men lying side by side on the big bed in the house, and when Xiao Liuzi came in, he threw himself on the bed, crying and calling for his father.
"Brother guard, don't be busy crying, your father and mother are still saved." Yuqing said calmly.
"Little Liuzi, the owner of the small village is also a Langzhong. Stabilize your god and ask the little farmer to show it. Then the older guard who followed followed.
"Little farmer, the emperor said that your medical skills are better than those of Lao Langzhong, please save my father and my mother. As long as my father and my mother are alive, you can do whatever you want. The little brother of the guard turned around and knelt down for Yuqing, and sold the emperor a little bit.
"You get up first and get out of the house. Ben Lang's medical skills are not necessarily better than my master's, but there is no reason to stand idly by when he catches up. Yuqing dodged the guard brother and walked to the bed, and also took out the needle bag.
Cleanly, first prick a few stitches on the two old men to stabilize the rest of their souls. Looking back, the room was still full of people, and his voice said unpleasantly.
"Let's all go out and wait. Ask someone to boil some hot water, and wait a while to wipe the bodies of the two old men to reduce the heat. There are also boiled porridge and waiting for the two old people to wake up, and they need to supplement nutritious meals in time. β
"Brother, sister-in-law, let's all go out. This is the apprentice of the old imperial physician in the palace, and you can't help if you all gather around here. Xiao Liuzi was also busy driving the people out of the house.
"Sixth brother, is she okay? It's not the old imperial physician who came in person. The woman who had been talking in the courtyard asked distrustfully.
"Sister-in-law, my father and mother are already like this, if it works, let this girl try. And what are you all watching here? The boiling water is the boiling water, the cooking is the cooking. Don't think about what you have, your father and mother are blessed people, and you will definitely be able to pass this hurdle. A young lady pinched Xiao Man's waist and said, Yuqing speculated that this person might be Xiao Liuzi's sister. This little girl's personality Yuqing likes.
"Sister-in-law, I'm also worried about my father, let's all go out." The sister-in-law said, glanced at Yuqing with a complicated expression, and left with the people in the house.
"Little farmer, is my father and mother also suffering from the plague?"
"Yes, this plague looks serious, and the medicine is right and the cure is fast. Your father and mother have just swallowed their breath and their souls have not left their bodies, and my few stitches are to strengthen their souls. When they come to their senses, they can take their medicine, and at most they will be cured tonight. Yuqing said as he traced the facial features of the two old men.
"Sister Langzhong, my father and mother haven't been properly groomed these days, you can wipe their faces with my handkerchief." Xiao Liuzi's sister took out a handkerchief embroidered with bamboo leaves and said.
"Miss, this is a technique to assist acupuncture. Wait for your father and mother to come to their senses and find two attentive people to wipe their bodies well with warm water. If you have the plague, you are most afraid of fever, and if you have a fever for a long time, you will give birth to other diseases. Yu said with a light smile.
"Sister Langzhong, your method of treating people is very special. Is it possible to wipe your body to relieve fever no matter what kind of illness and fever, I don't like to drink bitter medicine soup the most. β
"Yes, it's just a way to relieve fever, and you still have to drink medicine when you're sick. The only way to not want to drink bitter medicine is to keep yourself from getting sick. β
"Sister, just now the little farmer Lang Zhong gave my brother a thing called a mask, which can be worn on the face to isolate the sickness. You wait and make a few more preparations, and tell the people in the yard to bring them when they go out. Xiao Liuzi lifted the face towel and asked her sister to look at the mask. Just then the old woman on the bed woke up first.
"Wife, why do you say that you can leave and leave, how can you live if you leave me alone?"
"Mother, it's great that you can come back, but I scared my daughter to death."
"Girl, my mother was chained away just now, and she was pulled back before she left the yard. My daughter hasn't found a good in-law yet, and her mother can't die. β
"Old woman, what are you talking about now that you can't die? You take my hand, even when we go to the underworld, we will be together. The old man also relieved, but his soul was not yet stable, and he thought that he was still talking in the underworld.
"The master, what kind of underworld, our old couple are still alive."
"Not dead? I saw the people all over the yard crying and howling, and the people began to tear the white cloth to make filial piety shirts......"
"You dead old man is back to life!" The old lady sat up abruptly and slapped him, which also woke the old man up completely.
"Master, this slap still works, or you'll have to keep drawing circles." Yuyu laughed again in her senses.
"You don't understand, this is the call of family affection." Yuqing also said relaxedly, originally thought that this old man's soul was already on the verge of wandering, but he didn't expect that he would also be summoned back.
"Daddy, it was this little miracle doctor who saved you." Xiao Liuzi saw that his father and mother had come back to life, and he cried with joy.
"Sister Langzhong, my name is Xiaozhuzi, thank you Sister Langzhong for saving my father, my family has a rouge shop in Nancheng, and if Sister Langzhong needs anything in the future, she will go to my shop to get it without spending money." Xiao Liuzi's sister knelt down and said.
"Miss Bamboo, please get up, sister, I am a man, and it is my duty to treat diseases and save lives. When the old man was awake, he took these two pills, and after a day or two of rest, he could walk around on the ground. Yuqing smiled and took out two small packaged pills from her arms.
"Little farmer, do you still have pills?" The older guard asked.
"Yes, is it strange to be a man who carries life-saving medicine with him?" Yuqing asked rhetorically.
"Uncle Cousin, you can't tell the emperor about this. The emperor didn't want to let them go, but he was worried that he couldn't find their fault. Xiao Liuzi was anxious, and he sold the emperor completely this time.
"You stupid boy, your father and mother are also my uncle and aunt. Your cousin, am I the kind of person who doesn't distinguish between inside and outside? Doing too much in front of the emperor may not have merit, and doing a little wrong is unforgivable. "When they got older, the guards joined the ranks of the sellers.
"Little farmer benefactor, I'm afraid I can't hide the fact that you saved my father and mother. How much silver are these two pills a life-saving medicine? β
"Brother Guard, I don't want your silver. This is also the will of heaven You were sent out of the palace to follow the owner of the village, and we also happened to come to Nancheng at this hour, and your father and mother were blessed. It would be anachronistic to say silver. β
"Benefactor, then don't talk about silver today. The sixth son and his cousin are both on errands in the emperor's palace, and they also have some connections. In the future, if you encounter any difficulties, just speak. Our family also has some family background, and we will do our best to help as long as the benefactor opens his mouth in the future. The old man on the bed took the medicine and was much better in spirit, and sat up and said.
"Then thank you in advance, old man. Yuqing still has the emperor's order in his body, so if there is any need for Yuqing in the future, he will call the guard brother to go to the villa to inform him. Yuqing said politely, of course the silver is good, it may envelop the two guards in the emperor's palace, and the value is not measured by how much silver.
Returning to the main street of Nancheng, my cousin finally couldn't help but ask: "Little farmer, do you really have the ability to come back to life?" Rumor has it that your medical skills are better than the old imperial doctor, and it's not false at all. My uncle and my aunt are already breathing and can still be rescued by you, if the emperor knows, it will be even more difficult for your master and apprentice to get out of the palace. β
"Uncle Guard, the emperor is willing to let us go, my master and I still have to go. We are accustomed to living an unfettered and free country life, and we are even more reluctant to live in intrigue every day. β
"Uncle Cousin......"
"Little Liuzi, in front of you is the place where Nancheng boils medicine. Let's go over and have a look. Uncle Guard's cousin interrupted Xiao Liuzi's words and pointed to the street in front of him, which was already steaming.
Two rows of cauldrons were erected on both sides of the street, and the herbs in the pots were already bubbling, and the air smelled bitter of herbs. The Imperial Physician and Lang Zhong of Nancheng were throwing pieces of ointment into the pot.
"When the ointment melts, you can stop the fire, and if you boil it any longer, it will be a waste of medicinal soup." Yuqing looked at the medicinal soup in the pot and said.
"Little farmer, I thought you should have come a long time ago." A royal physician said.
"I encountered some problems on the way, and the first time I came to such a rich place as Nancheng, I walked around for a while. Don't forget the ointment block, without the ointment block, the efficacy of the medicinal soup will be discounted. β
"Although the little owner can rest assured, who dares to perfunctory the emperor's errand." After seeing the situation of boiling medicine, the two guards accompanied Yuqing to walk around the southern city for a while, and it was already time for lunch.
"Little farmer, as well as Beicheng and Xicheng, if you want to go over and have a look, we will eat outside, or we will go back to the palace." Uncle Guard's cousin asked Yuqing's opinion and said.
"Anything, I don't know where my master and them are now?" Yuqing said ambiguously, since he can't go back to the villa today, what is the difference between returning to the palace early and returning to the palace late.
"When he came out, the emperor had already made a decision, he would never let the two of you master and apprentice walk together, and if one of you runs, you can still contain the other. It just so happens that the two of you master and apprentice take the initiative to separate the two ways. Let's go further, there is the only way back to the palace, and then we will know the current situation of your master and them. "Xiao Liuzi now explains the emperor's intentions so thoroughly.
"How could the emperor think that we were going to run away, there was a reward for curing the plague that we had said at the beginning, how could we take the initiative to leave the palace before the reward was received, it wasn't a big loss." Yuqing said very much about money.
"Little Zhuang Master, you are too naΓ―ve to think, the emperor has no intention of asking your master and apprentice to walk out of the palace. He is too afraid of reprisals, and the more skilled your master and apprentice are, the more dangerous it is. Keep you in the palace, and if he is calculated, he will be able to save his life. β
"Little Liuzi, our uncle and nephew have talked too much today. The little owner, our grandfather was also left in the emperor's palace because of his good martial arts, and they all said that accompanying the king is like accompanying the tiger, I would rather patrol the streets in the imperial city in the wind and rain than stay by the emperor's side on an errand. Every day I live with trepidation, and I am afraid of being cut off at any time. β
"Uncle Guard, we are just Langzhong, even if someone wants to retaliate, what is needed is your kung fu guard. Our masters and apprentices will only diagnose people's diseases, and we are afraid that we will also be on the side of being killed. β
"One more person will give him one more person to block his sword. Little owner, you are kind to us, we can't help with anything else, it is said that the current emperor is particularly afraid of ghosts. The lord in the cold palace was placed under house arrest by the two of them in the palace because he was easy to provoke bad things. β
"Brother Guard, this doesn't make sense. If you are afraid of ghosts, you should drive the commander out of the palace, why do you still stay in the palace? Yuqing was puzzled.
"Little farmer, you don't understand this, he didn't have the opportunity to get close to the girl, but was sent to another palace by them, the little farmer should be able to think of the intention of the girl."
"I thought about it, but I still didn't understand it. It's too naΓ―ve, if the Lord Commander really summons the ghost, the ghost can't tell where to go. Yuqing laughed, she already had an idea in her heart, she wanted the Dog Emperor to take the initiative to ask their master and apprentice to leave the palace.
