Chapter 207: Loss, Loss
"That's... Yes, it's the cry of a tiger......"
"Hurry, run!! What are you doing in a daze?! ”
The earth-shattering tiger roar came from the direction of the crossing, and the person who stood in place for two seconds reacted, immediately howled, and scattered in all directions.
Just listening to this cry, you will know that the tiger must have chased it out from this path without grasping it......
If you don't run now, when will you wait!
Listening to the approaching roar of the tiger, Hua Shi looked around twice, and made sure that he didn't see Hua Song and Hua Zhu, so he hurriedly grabbed Xie Mingchi's arm and ran towards the side of the street.
The tiger should have broken free from the traps of the pursuers, smelled the smell, and chased out.
She must run farther away at this time, otherwise she will be caught up by the tiger and stumble, and she will not be able to escape......
Unlike the panicked crowd, it is this that is taken into account when it is spent.
I just don't know where Hua Song and Hua Zhu went, it won't be that they were trapped in the black market, and on the way to take advantage of the chaos, they were pressed back again.
This possibility is not impossible, after all, the two of them are in tattered clothes, unkempt, and covered in wounds, and anyone with a discerning eye can see that the two of them are slaves in the underground black market.
The deed of sale between the two of them is still in their hands...... I just don't know if I can go in again and bring the two out when this chaotic battle is over.
Hua Shi's thoughts were chaotic, and when she came back to her senses, Xie Mingchi took her for a long time, and looked at the flow of people around her, and knew that there should be some distance from the black market.
And those who fled from the black market have long been buried in the crowd and disappeared without a trace......
"I don't know if the two of them are still trapped inside......"
Hua Shi let go of Xie Mingchi's hand, and said with a slight frown.
If it's really still trapped inside, it's going to be a bit difficult to get it out again.
Hua Shi unconsciously tugged at the red ribbon tied to his hand and sighed lowly.
"Let's take a look at the entrance, maybe the two of them have escaped from the other way." Xie Mingchi proposed.
After all, the two of them finally came out of the exit, and after being delayed for so long halfway, and without waiting for anyone, they might have come out through another entrance.
The exit and entrance were strictly guarded before, because the tiger broke free from the fence and fled, the guards left temporarily, no one watched, and the black market was in chaos again, as long as they ran out with the panicked people, it was the people who could be seen in these two places.
Unless, after the two of them ran out, they had different intentions and ran away without permission......
The two reached an agreement, followed the flowing crowd, turned a few alleys, and came to the vicinity of the entrance of the black market.
The entrance side was much more lively than the exit side, and there were a lot of people around, as if they were discussing what had just happened.
Hua Shi tiptoed around to check, and now he just wanted to find the two of them quickly, and then he had to go back to the inn to pack his things and go back to the village.
It's been a few days since I came out, and I don't know how Hua Yu and the others are at home, and now that things are almost dealt with, I have to rush back.
After spending time thinking about it, even the follow-up arrangements were arranged.
"Ah, this way."
Xie Mingchi, who was behind him, suddenly reached out and grabbed her shoulders and took her in one direction.
Hua Shi followed his strength and saw the squatting in the corner of the wall... The embarrassed two.
It's Hua Song and Hua Zhu.
"Why are you two sitting on the ground?"
A soft voice came from above her head, Hua Zhu's eyes lit up, and she looked up, "I... I, it's him... The eldest brother had a painful wound on his body and sat on the ground to rest. "Waiting for you to come to us.
Hua Zhu didn't say the last sentence, and the words that came to his mouth were stumbling, pinching and rubbing his two hands, nervously twisted together, his dark eyes, staring round, looking up at Hua Shi.
Hua Shi's gaze fell on Hua Song's bare back, which was covered with whip marks, some bloody wounds, covered by long and messy hair, and his head was bent all the time, his head was lowered, and the whole person was almost curled up and buried in his chest.
"Help the person up first, find a medical center, treat the wound and then go back."
As soon as her words fell, Xie Mingchi stepped forward and walked to Hua Song's side, and his arm was bent hard, and he easily dragged the person up.
Hua Song buried his head, only to feel that the vision in front of him was getting more and more blurred, I don't know if the injury on his body was too serious, or what......
There are several commercial streets in Taohua Town, and although there is only one medical center in the larger one Renyaotang, there is no clinic for small ones.
I found a small clinic nearby, saying that it was a small clinic, but in fact, it was placed on the side of the street, with a table and two chairs, and a yellow flag hanging on the side, with a few big characters written on it, and there was not even a store.
He had a goatee, big eyebrows, and wrinkled skin on his face, and he looked like he was about forty or fifty years old.
He first gave Hua Song, who was so weak that he almost fainted, that he took the pulse, and then called someone to come over, ready to roll the eyeballs under his nose, but who suddenly saw a burnt and disfigured half of the face that crashed into his field of vision, and he was so frightened that he choked.
"You... Your face. ”
The doctor subconsciously blurted out this sentence, withdrew his hand, and swept his gaze over the few people present, his expression was a little rich, and he didn't know what he was thinking.
Hua Song's vague thoughts were shocked, and this sentence was like a basin of cold water rushing towards him from head to toe, he suddenly lowered his head, hid half of his burned face again, covered it with one hand, and was silent without saying a word.
The doctor stood up again, checked the wound on his body, walked around, cleaned the wound for Hua Song, and then walked back to the table, and said slowly: "The wound is caused by inflammation, it is a little serious, I simply washed the wound, here is a wound medicine to stop bleeding and heal, five taels of silver a bottle, do you want it?" ”
Hua Song held on to his spirits, and when he heard the price of the wound medicine, he was dazed for a moment, so dull that he didn't know what was going on.
Hua Zhu, who was standing on the side, suddenly widened his eyes, shocked by the price of this wound medicine, dumbfounded, and didn't know what to say for a while.
From the time he was willing to pay for the redemption of the two of them, he knew that this man must be a kind-hearted person, and in addition to being grateful, he also had the idea of recognition, and she gave them a new name, and made them the eldest brother and the younger brother...... Now he even took them to see the doctor......
The doctor seemed to be afraid that the price of the medicine he quoted would be too high, so he scared people away, and explained unhurriedly: "Don't look at the high price of this medicine, but in addition to me, the next place is also at this price, maybe it is more expensive than mine." Besides, I am expensive and expensive, this is our ancestral secret recipe, like this wound that is about to fester, if it is not treated in time, it is easy to lose a small life, my wound medicine is useful, less than a month, the wound will be healed by this medicine......"
The doctor babbled on and on about his medicine.
When I heard the price, I was going to bargain, five taels of silver was too expensive, although the silver in my hand was abundant, but I just looked at it, and the places next to it still had to be spent, and the silver was not blown by the wind, so naturally I couldn't be lavish.
However, after the doctor said that, he bent down again, took out the cloth bag under the table, and held the large jar of medicine in both hands, and swallowed back silently the sound of the flower ready to bargain.
With such a large jar, five taels of silver is not unacceptable......
This porcelain medicine stall is almost as big as the jar of salt at home, and looking at the amount of medicine, it should be enough to coat it for a month.
"This jar, five taels of silver?" Asked when it took a flower.
The doctor looked up at her, and then lowered his head and concentrated on unscrewing the wooden stopper on the top of the medicine jar, and there was a smell of medicine, just smelling it, he felt that the tongue coating was bitter, and when he saw it, the medicine in it was black and mushy, and he didn't know what it was.
"Five taels of silver, no counteroffer."
Doctor Xu felt that Hua Shi had to bargain like those people before, so he said first.
With the expression on his face, it can be seen that the doctor has set the price to death, and his staggered eyes don't want to bargain with her.
Hua Shi's eyes fell on the medicine jar that had been spread out on the table, and the cuffs were suddenly gently pulled, and when he looked down, he saw Hua Zhu's uneasy expression.
"Husband... Second, second sister, don't worry, this is too expensive......" Huazhu wandered for a long time, but still couldn't hold back, pulled the sleeve of the flower, and refused to say.
Hua Song, who was sitting on the chair, listened quietly to the words of this conversation, and his blank expression gradually became clear, and he also reacted, five taels of silver is not a small amount.
After hearing Hua Zhu's voice, he also turned his head to look at Hua Zhu, and said in a somewhat weak voice: "... It's too expensive to use. ”
A simple treatment of the wound would be fine... The head is hard, it shouldn't be so easy to die......
The doctor on the side, who was originally staggering his gaze and waiting for the flower to speak, did not wait for the flower to speak, but heard the injured two, and took the lead in persuading him not to buy, how can this work.
The doctor gritted his teeth, looked at the four of them several times, was reluctant to lower his medicine money, thought for a while, and then said bitterly: "Okay, okay, this way, I can treat the wounds on your body for free, that is, free consultation, usually the consultation fee, I have to charge nearly one or two silver dollars for both of you, and now I don't charge your consultation fee, and the price of medicine cannot be reduced." ”
For such a large jar of medicine, it takes almost two months for the head to be used to make a jar of things, and if the price is pushed down, then he will not be able to earn money.
"Okay."
The time of the flower was very happy, and when the doctor came to his mouth, he choked back and looked at her strangely several times.
Hua Shi didn't plan to continue to bargain, the amount of the medicine was enough, there were many children in the family, there were always bumps and bumps, buy a can or two back, if it was useful, it would be worth it.
In the end, the doctor cleaned the wounds on the two of them for free, smeared them with black and slimy medicine, tossed around, and finally bought two jars of medicine.
The doctor saw that she was happy to pay the money, and there was a feeling of being dumb and eating Coptis chinensis, and it was only when she got the silver money that she reacted, and the little girl was pretending to show him from beginning to end, so that he mistakenly thought that he really didn't buy it, and when he was relieved, he gave the silver money happily, and lost him a good meal of medical fees......
