Chapter 44 Huangjia Village at the foot of Changbai Mountain
If we want to change the current situation, we need to take a multi-pronged approach.
There is not only Kunlun in the world, but where is the dragon vein that started in the Qing Dynasty?
…………
Northeast.
At the foot of Changbai Mountain.
The figures of two people loomed from a distance.
The big man was strapped to a medicine box, and he was wearing a set of clothes that were easy to walk, and the clothes were a little whitish after washing, and he could smell the aroma of herbs when he came up vaguely.
The little one was dressed in a Taoist robe, and although his face was still yellow and thin, he could obviously see some ruddy colors.
In this way, the big one held the small one, and the two of them staggered on this mountain road.
They walked steadily at every step, and they did not stop at all in the rugged valleys and rivers in the mountains, and even on all kinds of sheep's intestines.
Thirsty for a spoonful of water, hungry for a handful of meals. These two masters and apprentices, who seemed to be Doctor You Fang at a glance, walked firmly towards a goal in the mountains.
Soon, there was a faint smell of cooking smoke and wheat in the distance.
As the pace of the master and apprentice accelerated, a small village with dozens of families appeared in front of them.
"The two guests are doctors?"
Several villagers in front of the road saw the two from a distance.
Looking at the dress of the two, I couldn't help but let go of some worries while being vigilant.
"Exactly!"
"You two couldn't have come at a better time! There are quite a few people in our village who are sick right now! I hope the doctor will see if he can diagnose and treat it! ”
After hearing the reply of Dugu Bo's master and apprentice, the joy on the faces of these villagers could not be hidden at all.
After they exchanged glances, one of the villagers quickly ran back to the village to report the news, and the remaining responsible ones greeted them and diligently showed the way for the master and apprentice.
"How long have you people in this village been sick? Have you seen any other doctors? ”
On the way, holding the hand of his little apprentice, Dugu Bo asked a few villagers who led him nearby.
"Alas, don't mention it! Where are there any serious doctors in our village? ”
"There are a few disciples who worship the gray fairy, and she is a goddess, if it weren't for the doctor, you just happened to come here, we would have planned to find her after a while."
One of the leading villagers complained, while another taller villager next to him nodded again and again, and echoed:
"But the old goddess is a money-grubber! We kept saying that we wanted to make offerings for the gray fairy, and we went to ask, and the price offered by the stingy goddess was higher and higher every time. ”
"Tsk, the house she lives in is very good, and the ground is covered with tiger skins!"
"Huh! We hadn't sent her in the first place, and if it weren't for those things, we wouldn't have ...... Not! ”
What do the villagers who said this seem to be aware of? Quickly stopped the cynicism in his mouth, and the people around him all glared at him fiercely.
Seeing this scene, Dugu Bo just wanted to continue to interject, but an anxious shout came from a distance:
"Doctor? Where's the doctor! ”
From the path of the village in the distance, an urgent figure ran in the distance.
This is a man, looking at the wrinkles and complexion on his face, you can judge that he is about fifty years old, and at this period, he has properly entered the category of old age.
The old man ran over eagerly, his clothes were still a little muddy, and his running posture was a little weird, he should have fallen on the road.
However, the old man obviously didn't care, he anxiously ran to Dugu Bo, grabbed Dugu Bo's sleeve, and seemed to want to forcibly take this You Fang Lang away.
"Second uncle, you're not kind!"
A younger villager seemed to want to argue when he saw this.
However, he was pulled by another person next to him who seemed to be of a higher seniority:
"Little Liu, don't say it, second uncle, his family's Hezi is indeed the sickest."
When the old man, who was called Second Uncle by the villagers, heard these two words, he seemed to respond, knowing that he had just done too eagerly, but before he could say a few words, another group of people appeared behind him.
More than a dozen people surrounded a middle-aged man, clustered together and appeared in front of Dugu Bo's eyes.
"I disturbed the doctor a lot just now, I am Huang Baiyuan, the head of the village, and the second uncle in the village just now offended the doctor, please forgive me."
"However, there is also a last resort, the second uncle's son is already the most sick, if the doctor can cure the disease, we will have a follow-up."
"In this way, I will compensate you for the second uncle."
As he spoke, he wanted to salute, but Dugu Bo stretched out his hand to stop him.
"It's the patient who is anxious now, Village Chief Huang doesn't need to make this big gift, and asks the village chief to guide the way, and I will take my apprentice to take a look."
When Dugu Bo finished speaking, the village chief named Huang Baiyuan had not yet spoken, but the second uncle couldn't stand.
The old man was in tears, and saluted Dugu Bo again and again, Dugu Bo protected his little apprentice Liuyun behind him, and asked the old man to lead the way in a hurry.
Dugu Bo has gone all the way, although there are many houses in Huangjia Village, but there is not much arable land, and the people who came out to see Dugu Bo when they heard the news were basically men, but they rarely saw women.
Judging from Dugu Bo's perspective of mixing in this era for a period of time, the level of housing construction in Huangjia Village has far exceeded the average line of ordinary people, and basically except for one or two, most people's houses are neat and beautiful.
That's a little wrong.
And when Dugu Bo and his little apprentice walked in front of the second uncle's house surrounded by a large number of villagers, the scene he saw was even more incredible.
The house in front of him is not so much a peasant house in the mountains, but a house of a big family in the town, all kinds of decorations are not missing, after Dugu Bo walked in the door, he even saw a cross inlaid with gold.
Judging by the workmanship and decoration, the typical Orthodox style, it should have flowed from Russia.
Along with this cross are a variety of deity symbols and statues, in addition to the common Taoism and Buddhism, there are also local horse immortals and some other things that Dugu Bo could not recognize.
It seems that this second uncle is a little panicked.
With a squeak to open the door, Dugu Bo walked over to a screen painted with landscape patterns, and only then did he see the patient lying on the bed, that is, the son of the second uncle.
I saw that his breathing was weak, his body was tense, the skin on his whole body was blue, his eyes were dull and covered with black bloodshots, and he would convulse for a while or two from time to time.
Seeing this, Dugu Bo's face remained unchanged, but his little apprentice Wang Liuyun frowned.
Apparently, he recognized what it was, too.
