After Hu Enli calmed down, the two maidservants finally breathed a sigh of relief, and looked at Shi Cheng with a lot of gratitude in their eyes.

At first, Mrs. Hu only thought that Shi Cheng was one of Hou Yu's followers, but after seeing that Shi Cheng had easily calmed Hu Enli, she couldn't help but be curious about Shi Cheng's identity, "Who is this official?" ”

Shi Cheng glanced at Hou Yu, and then said with a smile: "My surname is Shi, not a person from the official mansion, but a traveling pharmacist, and today I will follow Lord Hou to see Hu Yuanwai." ”

Shi Cheng has not yet gotten rid of his notoriety in the city, so he has not reported his full name. Originally, Shi Cheng was still a little worried about whether Mrs. Hu would recognize the three of them through the iron mask, but Mrs. Hu didn't seem to know much about the poisoning case that was making a lot of noise in the city.

Mrs. Hu sighed and said, "The little brother's concubine has received it, and in the past few months, the concubine has also invited many pharmacists, but they all said that the master's illness cannot be treated, so let me ask Gao Ming." It's not that the concubine doesn't believe in the little brother's medical skills, but it seems that the little brother is not yet over thirty ......"

"Mrs. Hu, how do you know if you don't give it a try." As Shi Cheng spoke, he put his hand on Hu Enli's wrist, and a stream of true qi entered Hu Enli's body and probed.

After a moment, Shi Cheng's brows furrowed slightly.

"It's such a strange mixed poison, the same as the pseudo-poison that can hide from my eyes on Bai Jilong's body, it is a new type that has not been mentioned in Master's notes, it seems that the Lu clan has come up with a lot of new tricks in the past 20 years." Shi Cheng thought to himself.

Mrs. Hu seemed to have expected Shi Cheng's reaction, and hurriedly asked, "Little brother, are you also ......?"

"Your lord, there is a toxin mixed with extreme yin qi in the meridians that is causing chaos."

Mrs. Hu said with some surprise: "There were pharmacists who said this before, saying that my master was not suffering from a heart loss, but was poisoned, but the situation was strange and complicated, and they couldn't administer needles and medicines. ”

Indeed, the yin poison in Hu Yuan's external body has taken root in the internal organs and is eroding his head, which is why his expression and demeanor are becoming more and more crazy. However, at present, although Hu Yuanwai's illness is complicated, it can be treated for outside the staff. ”

Mrs. Hu had an incredible expression on her face, and she didn't seem to believe what she heard at all, "Little brother, don't be joking, even Pharmacist Tan in Yancheng said that he can't cure my master, you look ......"

Shi Cheng interrupted Mrs. Hu, "Mrs. Hu, whether you believe it or not, let me tell you the truth, your master's illness has been delayed for a long time, and if you leave it alone, you will die of delirium in less than half a month." I'm not alarmist, so I hope that Mrs. Hu can give me the next opportunity, and Shi can give Hu Yuan an injection now, and I can guarantee immediate results. ”

Mrs. Hu, who was frightened by Shi Cheng's sentence "He will die in less than half a month", heard Shi Cheng's words later, as if she had seen a savior, and hurriedly asked, "What the little brother said is true?" ”

"I'm here with Lord Hou, doesn't Mrs. Hu think I'll be some kind of charlatan?" Shi Cheng said with a smile: "Dare to ask Mrs. Hu, how many times has Hu Yuanwai had an illness in the last day?" ”

"Once at least, three times at most." Mrs. Hu replied.

"After Shi's diagnosis this time, it can be guaranteed that Hu Yuanwai will only have one attack a day, or once every two days during this time."

"For example, if Gongzi can really save my master, our Hu family will repay Gongzi even if the family is bankrupt, I don't know what Gongzi's requirements for the consultation fee are?" Mrs. Hu asked overjoyed.

"It's half an old acquaintance of Lord Chincha." In front of Hou Yu, Shi Cheng did not shy away from saying this, "Therefore, when I came to visit Yuanwai, I also wanted to contribute to Lord Qincha, and I only had one request, and when Hu Yuanwai sobered up, Shi had something to ask him." ”

"It turns out that Childe is still a friend of Lord Sun." Mrs. Hu had a little more respect on her face, "Then ask Gongzi for consultation, the concubine completely agrees with Gongzi's request." ”

Shi Cheng nodded, took out a cigarette bottle from his bag, and said to Wu Neng and Tie Mian who were standing at the door: "Old Wu, you help me take care of the fire in the cigarette bottle, Lao Tie, you help me look at the smoke, don't let the smoke spread out of the bed." ”

After arranging everything, the two maidservants retreated to the side in amusement and listened to the instructions. Shi Cheng sat on the edge of the bed and began to apply needles to Hu Yuanwai's head, Hou Yu went downstairs to drink tea, leaving only two guards to guard the door, and Mrs. Hu sat at the table not far away, with anxiety and expectation in her eyes, looking intently at Hu Enli lying on the bed.

"Mrs. Hu, can you tell me about Hu Yuanwai's experience after he was saved and returned from Xieyang Road?" Shi Cheng in the needle suddenly asked.

Mrs. Hu nodded and said: "My lord is in the herbal medicine business, basically taking the Xieyang Road, and some businessmen in the family eat this bowl of rice, and sometimes there are foreign businessmen, so the competition pressure is very high, and many times he goes out to talk about business in person, and that time he went to Xieyang Road to go to Heyuan City to meet a guest in person." ”

"Oh, the merchants who walk the Xieyang Road are all in the herbal medicine business? Aren't most of the merchants of the Western Desert Country engaged in iron ore, coal, and fur business? ”

"Doesn't Childe know? There is a lack of medicinal materials in the Western Desert Country, and many medicinal materials need to be introduced from outside. Although Xieyang Road looks inconspicuous, foreign pharmacists want to transport their goods to the Western Desert Country Capital and first transport them to Heyuan Port, which is connected to Xieyang Road. Therefore, although there are few Chinese medicine merchants in China, it is impossible for all the merchants who eat this bowl of rice not to have walked the Xieyang Road. ”

"I'm sorry, I'm still not familiar with many situations in the Southern Wilderness, so I don't know much about them, Mrs. Hu, you continue."

"Well, our family lives in the Gyeonggi area, and my lord left home with a caravan around the lunar month last year, preparing to go to Heyuan City. At that time, the Xieyang Road was still calm, and there was no such a big mess, but I didn't expect that the time had reached the end of the month and the lord had not returned, and my heart began to feel uneasy. Speaking of this, Mrs. Hu was so sad that she couldn't help but start wiping her tears again.

"Fortunately, the concubine's net worth has some friendship with President Huang, the upstart of Wangcheng, and with his help, I was able to go to Yancheng with the housekeeper and find the master, and later in order to investigate the case of the new Lord Qincha, our family came to Yunqiu City."

"So, Hu Yuanwai is in a place near Yancheng?" Shi Cheng groaned, "Dare to ask Hu Yuanwai what happened, and what happened after your husband and wife met?" ”

"I don't know what happened to the master, and the concubine body doesn't know. The official messenger of Yancheng said that the lord was rescued by the hunters of a village in the mountains, and when he was found, the lord was already delirious and insane. He just muttered a lot of ghosts every day, and the king's grandfather spared his life and the like. ”

"I see, no wonder there is a rumor that Hu Yuanwai met ghost bandits." Wu Neng said.

"The concubine thinks the same way." Mrs. Hu said sadly: "The pharmacists and even some mages in Yancheng have been invited by us, but they all said that I should invite another master. The concubine had no choice but to continue to seek medical advice after arriving in Yunqiu City, but after such a long time, even with the government's subsidy, there was no extra entanglement on the concubine's body. Fortunately, Lord Chincha had relented and agreed to let us leave the city a few days ago, and a few days ago we met Chairman Huang in the city, and he promised us that in five days he would arrange for us to return to Beijing with one of his caravans, and now we could finally go home. ”

"Chairman Huang ......" Shi Cheng, who was a little sensitive to this surname and title, was inexplicably nervous, and he asked curiously, "Do you dare to ask if this President Huang is in the city now?" Shi may also go to Wangcheng in the future, but now that the Xieyang Road case has not been solved, it is too dangerous to go on the road alone, I wonder if Shi can take a ride? ”

Mrs. Hu smiled and said, "President Huang is a busy man, and he is not in the city at the moment. In this way, when my housekeeper comes back, I will ask him to go and talk to the steward of the Chamber of Commerce in Yunqiu City, and they will definitely not refuse your son. However, the nearest convoy of the Chamber of Commerce will depart in five days, and if Childe wants to leave, he must make a decision as soon as possible, otherwise he will have to find a way to take the convoy of other big chambers of commerce. ”

Shi Cheng nodded, but there was some hesitation on his face, "So, Mrs. Hu, you are leaving in five days?" ”

Seeing Shi Cheng's face, Mrs. Hu hurriedly asked, "Yes, dare to ask Gongzi what's wrong?" ”

"Hu Yuanwai's condition is serious, one injection is not enough, if Mrs. Hu is not in a hurry, I don't know if she can stay in the city for a while?"

"This ......" Mrs. Hu frowned, in a dilemma, "Don't hide it from the son, now the matter of the master's accident has been reported home, the family is in chaos, and now the concubine's body is almost exhausted." Alas, this ...... That's how it can be good. ”

Seeing Mrs. Hu's anxious appearance, Shi Cheng thought for a moment and said: "In this case, if Mrs. can trust me, let's prescribe a prescription for Mrs. Hu first, you can temporarily stabilize Hu Yuanwai's condition, and when Shi finishes handling his own affairs, he will go to Wangcheng as soon as possible, and when the time comes, he will definitely visit your mansion to cure Hu Yuanwai's condition." ”

Mrs. Hu hesitated for a while, and finally made up her mind, "Okay, Gongzi is a friend of Master Sun, so he is naturally worthy of the trust of the concubine, and the concubine will write my home address to Gongzi, and I hope that Gongzi can help and wake up my master." ”

Shi Cheng and Mrs. Hu exchanged prescriptions and addresses, and soon, Shi Cheng's needle administration was over. After retracting the cigarette bottle, Shi Cheng arched his hand and said goodbye to Mrs. Hu with Wu Neng.

Just as Shi Cheng was about to go out, he suddenly stopped and asked Mrs. Hu, "By the way, madam, I don't know who is the surname of President Huang and the head of which chamber of commerce he is?" But the people of Wangcheng? ”

"Childe, President Huang is a person from Wangcheng, surnamed Huang Mingyuan, is the president and the only proprietor of the Camel Bell Chamber of Commerce, don't look at him as a low-key person, but the Camel Bell Chamber of Commerce is now more and more famous in Wangcheng, and he himself also has connections in the upper circle of the Western Desert Country." Mrs. Hu said with a smile.

"Huang Yuan, Huang Yuan!" Shi Cheng's heart was turbulent, and Wu Neng's eyes widened, he had also heard this name among the Bai family in Redwood City.

Tie Mian hadn't heard the two of them say this name yet, and he looked at Shi Cheng and Wu Neng suspiciously, a little strange about their reactions.

"It's the Huang Yuan in the mouths of Bai Jilong and Huangfu Ah Jiu, the president of the Camel Bell Chamber of Commerce!" Shi Cheng tried his best to suppress the emotions in his heart, and continued to ask Mrs. Hu: "I am a pharmacist, and I actually came to the Western Desert Country to do some medicinal material business, I don't know how much Mrs. Hu knows about this President Huang, but I want to get acquainted with him." ”

Mrs. Hu shook her head and said, "Although President Huang has a wide range of connections, he is very low-key, and the concubine doesn't know much about him. However, although they didn't meet much, the concubine felt that President Huang was a rather righteous character. If Childe wants to meet Chairman Huang, he can go to the headquarters of the Camel Bell Chamber of Commerce in Wangcheng to find him, and Childe will definitely become friends with President Huang. ”

"Okay, then Shi will leave."
