Chapter 127: Goodbye Chen Tao
"Recruitment?" Nan Huaijin looked at Ji Xiang puzzled, the senior brother came back and said that he wanted to recruit soldiers, which was equivalent to asking Ling Tianmen to set up a military system, which was to clearly use the banner of Ling Tianmen to recruit martial artists from all over the world to come and defect.
And Ji Xiang looked at her, as if he was waiting for her to respond, although he was Lu Weisheng's eldest disciple, Nan Huaijin was Lu Weisheng's most beloved disciple, and everyone in Ling Tianmen knew about this matter, so he naturally meant to get Nan Huaijin's permission first.
In fact, Nan Huaijin also knew what Ji Xiang meant, so she still shook her head and said, "Senior brother, in addition to the two senior uncles who can make a decision, you and I, there are other senior brothers and sisters from the same sect to discuss." ”
This is actually reasonable, after all, although the current Ling Tianmen is indeed a group of dragons without a leader, but there are still Chen Cheng in charge of the courtyard and Shi Zun an inch of monks, even if it is to set up a gate to recruit troops, it must be agreed by Chen Cheng in charge of the court.
Since the ages, the Jianghu sect has set up recruitment, and there are many people who have entered the world, and the hundred schools of thought in the Spring and Autumn Period, Cihang Pudu of the Tang Dynasty, is the former Taoist Qingjing, and has also recruited troops to fight.
Yuan Bo stood in front of the two, he looked at Ji Xiang with a solemn face, sighed, and didn't interject to say anything.
Most of the Qingyun disciples here also support Ji Xiang, Wang Zhibo is the leader of these outer disciples, he also stood up and supported Ji Xiang and said: "If you want to take revenge, just relying on my Qingyun Mountain Lingtianmen lineage, it is really too difficult, Senior Sister Nan, if you both agree, it will not be too difficult to recruit soldiers." ”
All that is needed is gold and silver, among the dead young men of Ling Tianmen, there are many people who are the descendants of rich and powerful families, which is equivalent to the emperor destroying Ling Tianmen for that divine sword, while also destroying the foundation of those clans, directly shaking the foundation of those families for several years or even more than ten years, at this moment, as long as the recruitment of soldiers, money and food, those families are afraid that they will support.
What's more, Ling Tianmen is now in Northern Liao, which is equivalent to the sect of Northern Liao, and presumably the emperor of the Liao Dynasty will also support it.
Nan Huaijin looked at Ji Xiang and was a little embarrassed, but the Qingyun disciples around her looked at her, all looking forward to it, and asked her to agree.
"I said, aren't you doing this to support foreign clans and enter the Central Plains?
Leng Buding, this sentence suddenly came out, and everyone immediately frowned and looked over, but Shen Jing had a resolute look, he didn't look like the young man in Jiangnan at the moment, but a scholar who was for the country and the people, and everything he thought about was a major event in the world.
Shen Xiang's exit was to look at Ji Xiang and approach him unceremoniously, Ji Xiang was cold, the two of them were-for-tat, conniving at Ji Xiang's martial arts, and it couldn't make Shen Jing sad at the moment.
"The Central Plains is full of talents, even if the emperor is sorry for you Ling Tianmen, but I have tens of millions of good families in the Great Song Dynasty, but I have been sorry for you Ling Tianmen?"
"What did you say?" Someone was furious and stepped forward to grab Shen Jing's neck, but was stopped, it was Shi Falcon, he indifferently told the outer disciple to stand down, but looked at the strange young man in front of him thoughtfully and said: " What this Shen Gongzi said is not wrong, the emperor of the Great Song Dynasty killed our Ling Tianmen, but the people of the Great Song Dynasty don't know, think about it, in this world, how many ordinary people are like Taoyuan Village, if Northern Liao enters the Central Plains, which of you can guarantee that the hundreds of millions of people of our Great Song Dynasty will not suffer from this?"
Ji Xiang glanced at the stone falcon, and also did not speak, but gradually his eyes became cold, and no one noticed it, and then nodded.
Wu Zhenxi, as a disciple of the inner gate, walked out with his hands on his back, stood with Shi Falcon in one place, and said: "In this river and lake, Ling Tianmen's friends are all over the north and south of the river, Daomen Confucianism, Foshan and Nanhai, if you want to rise up, you will definitely be able to shake the country. ”
He turned his head to look at Ji Xiang, but he also persuaded: "But in the world of the Great Song Dynasty, Taoism and Confucianism, they also support the emperor, the Great Buddha Cihang is a monk, and he has cultivated half a life of tranquility, and the north gate of Nanshan is not something we can decide, senior brother, this is really to recruit soldiers, it is not an easy task, I am afraid that we will not be able to do it in the past life." ”
After all, they are not masters, if it is that person's Lu Weisheng, I am afraid that he is a master of half of the rivers and lakes, and he also raised his arms and shouted, and the responders gathered, so the emperor suddenly made a move, mercilessly, tens of thousands of troops swept up the mountain, and even withdrew after killing Lu Weisheng.
Ji Xiang suddenly showed a little smile, and in his voice, he also nodded and said: "It is indeed as Brother Shen said, what Fang Cai said for his brother, it is true that he never thought of this, even if this Emperor Song exterminated our Ling Tianmen, we must not implicate the people of this world because of this." ”
Su Sheng stood behind him, silently watching, and did not say much.
"Since Chen Cheng and Uncle Yicun are both in the Northern Liao Kingdom, everyone will cultivate for a few days, and Brother Fu and I will continue to inquire about the whereabouts of Qingxue, as long as we have clues, we can leave. Ji Xiang said.
Everyone nodded, and Nan Huaijin also nodded: "Senior Sister Lu doesn't know where she is now, I'm afraid she has suffered a lot, Senior Brother." ”
"No problem. ”
Ji Xiang nodded, signaled to Fu Tanshan, and the two of them strode to rest, leaving Nan Huaijin and the others to rest.
These days, Ji Xiang and Fu Tanshan went together to find out about Lu Qingxue's whereabouts, Fu Tanshan was called the Su Sheng, and it was seen that he worked day and night, and he made light achievements, in the Tianshu Pavilion, except for the main left master of the Yushui Pavilion, the light skill was the highest.
Some people say that this Fu Tanshan's own martial arts are not low, enough to break into an earth-shattering big thing in the rivers and lakes, but he is obsessed with the beauty of the master of the Imperial Fire Pavilion and voluntarily works in the Imperial Fire Pavilion.
There are also rumors that Fu Tanshan is a registered disciple of the old pavilion master of Tianshu Pavilion, who has practiced a miraculous skill of the old pavilion master, and when he cultivates to Dacheng, he can change the sky, this martial art is too rebellious, even the four pavilion masters of Tianshu Pavilion have never known the true meaning, but someone has said that Fu Tanshan is not called Fu Tanshan at all, and this surname and appearance are all fake.
Of course, most of the rumors in the rivers and lakes are groundless, and what is credible is that Su Sheng's light skills are indeed good, not only in Tianshu Pavilion, but in the whole world, it is really difficult to find opponents.
Some people often use the light skills of the left master to compare with the saints, but they can't see the top and bottom of the two, but the master of Shaolin Temple later said that the light skills of the left master can be called: peerless.
The light work of the three uniques, this statement of the master of repaying the kindness made the masters of the rivers and lakes agree, and the left master is the first person to say that the light work.
Ji Xiang and the two of them, almost every day when they go out, they will find some clues, and some people have indeed seen people who are like drawings and portraits, walking around in the city of Hangzhou, Ji Xiang stopped the merchant on the road and finally learned that the person had been to the local Imperial Concubine Tower, more than one person had seen it, and the traders who came to trade on the entire Hangzhou City Street had seen it.
"I have to go back to Hangzhou and find out carefully. Ji Xiang and Nan Huaijin said that Lu Qingxue seemed to have made a name for herself, although she was clever, she also did a lot of chivalrous things, Ji Xiang frowned, very worried about Lu Qingxue's whereabouts.
Nan Huaijin originally returned to the Great Song Dynasty in search of Lu Qingxue, but now that she learned that many traders knew that there was such a woman in Hangzhou City, she hurriedly said: "Since Senior Sister is in Hangzhou City, then Senior Brother, let's go back together?"
Ji Xiang didn't refuse, but nodded: "I'm afraid something happened to your senior sister, wait for us to go back to Hangzhou City and ask around." ”
Fu Tanshan didn't know why, so he didn't say anything, just said: "This Lu girl is alone in Hangzhou City, presumably she has deliberately made her reputation bigger for several years, so that you can pay attention, but I am also afraid that the official family will know, so I hide it in other places, but it will not be too far." ”
Hurriedly packed up, Ji Xiang and Nan Huaijin were about to go on the road on the second day, Shen muttered, "You almost forgot me again." ”
Hangzhou City, which means that he is finally going back to Hangzhou, Nan Huaijin smiled and said: "This time you go back to Hangzhou City, you seem to be unhappy again." ”
"When I go back, I'm afraid my dad will discount these legs. Shen exclaimed, he had already packed his bags and could set off at any time.
Not only did they go together, but Wu Zhenxi and Shi Falcon were also ready, to join them, leaving these outer disciples of Qingyun Mountain alone, Wang Zhibo watched Nan Huaijin and them go away, and the light in his eyes dimmed again, some people thought he was stunned, walked over and patted him on the shoulder and said, "Senior Brother Wang, everyone has gone away." ”
Wang Zhibo woke up, hehe, nodded and smiled: "I know." ”
Everyone hurried up, from north to south, whistling in the wind, passing through the mountains and rivers, such a wind and rain galloped, even Nan Huaijin and his party, they all felt that the wind was like a knife, blowing the cloak on their bodies.
In a ruined temple, Fu Tanshan burned a few dry wooden sticks at this time, and only then did he see the cloak on Nan Huaijin's body, showing a surprised expression, and then asked: "Girl, where did you get this cloak made of fox fur?"
"Fox Qiu?" Ji Xiang sat on the ground strangely, and also looked over, Nan Huaijin had not paid attention to the cloak on his body, but he saw it at the moment, but the cyan cloak he saw was actually a layer of fine fur on the outside.
Before Nan Huaijin could speak, Wu Zhenxi on the side stretched out his hand, put it on Nan Huaijin's cloak, lifted a corner and rubbed it on his fingertips for a while, and then nodded slowly, revealing a somewhat contemplative expression and said: "This is indeed a fox fur, the best of the best, the best gold silk technique, but it is not the red fox that can be hunted in my Great Song Dynasty." ”
The red fox, also known as the fire fox, has bright fur like fire, and although it has good fur, it is far inferior to the fox skin used in the cloak in front of him.
The Great Song Dynasty is most fond of this kind of fur, and this fox fur coat must not be the fur of a fox, but the general color of the fur, made with the best craftsmanship and gold wire.
"It's Snow Fox. Ji Xiang is also well-informed, and immediately said, although it is a cyan cloak, it is not pure green at all, this is not an ordinary fox fur at all, but the fur of a snow fox.
Nan Huaijin didn't speak, this robe and cloak was given to her by the poison master in Tsing Yi, and it wasn't her thing at all.
A few people nodded, but only Fu Tanshan, who was the first to speak, laughed out loud and interrupted them, and those who didn't know laughed and said: "Where is this just an ordinary snow fox, but the top grade of the snow fox, the hunters in the extreme north said that among the thousand snow foxes, you can see a winter fox, which is extremely rare, and it is difficult to buy the fur of a winter fox, which is a tail, and it is enough for those hunters who hunt winter foxes, and the money can be used for a lifetime." ”
He pointed to the cloak on Nan Huaijin's body and said: "As long as the fox dies in the fur of this winter fox, the blood of the flesh and blood will be sucked in by the fur on the body, and the snow-white fur will be full of blood and water, and it will become violet." ”
Nan Huaijin nodded and said, "This is indeed a cloak made of winter fox's fur." ”
Gu Wei told him that this was a gift from the lord of the Northern Liao Kingdom to the Tsing Yi Poison Master, and it was indeed the fur of the Winter Fox, and the Tsing Yi Poison Master made a cloak himself, and finally left it for her.
"The person who gave you this cloak?" Ji Xiang frowned, as if he had thought of something, "But the poisoner?"
Nan Huaijin didn't hide it and nodded.
"It turned out to be him. Fu Tanshan sighed.
Ji Xiang and the others didn't speak again, Nan Huaijin didn't know what they were thinking, they just looked at them puzzled, Shen Jing was better, but he also looked strange, he didn't know what a few people meant, they didn't say anything, only Fu Tanshan placed a wooden stick on the fire.
On the second day, everyone continued to hurry, and when they passed by a small town, Ji Xiang stopped and got off the horse.
"Senior brother, what are you going to do?" Wu Zhenxi wondered, Ji Xiang just waved his hand at them and walked forward alone, leaving even the horses to them.
"Meet the old man. Ji Xiang just waved his hand and said, "Let's go, stay in the town." ”
Nan Huaijin got off the horse and hurriedly ran up, making everyone puzzled.
There are not many people in this town, but they can be regarded as a peaceful residence, some people sell agricultural work, and some people welcome customers with bowls of soup cakes.
Ji Xiang and Nan Huaijin walked around a few long alleys before they saw a familiar figure, busy decocting medicine.
He threw three coins, a roll of licorice, almonds, and chongyang into the frying pan...... Ginkgo biloba, who didn't know what medicine to make, mixed it with water, put it on the stove and burned it, and there were two little boys on the side who looked at him decocting the medicine, talking to him, but he didn't answer, as if he didn't hear it, and continued to be busy with the work in his hands.
He controlled the fire of the hearth, and the color of the fire was blue, and a boy shook his hand in front of him, and the doctor looked up at him, and then the boy spoke, "Doctor, my mother told us to tell you that we eat fish at noon." ”
"Well, good. The doctor nodded, then lowered his head again, looked at the medicine stove, don't call the fire too high, otherwise the medicine is too strong, and people will eat it and overdo it.
When the old physician was alive, he once said that there is no pharmacology in the world that is non-toxic and harmless, some people fight poison with poison, in order to suppress the original poison in the human body, and forcibly press it in the human body, and some people gradually recuperate step by step, little by little, but the long-term illness cures the disease, and the human body has been squeezed for several years and decades of medicine, fire poison, water poison, drug poison, layer by layer, bit by bit, directly attacking people's hearts, most people are also going to die.
What kind of medicine is the best, even the old doctor has not figured it out in his life, his own master, I am afraid that the master's master, has never had a way to get rid of the poison in the human body.
The thief suddenly remembered one thing, Qingming arrived, he had to go to sweep the weeds and fallen leaves on the tomb for the old doctor, he picked up the medicine pot in his hand, the water vapor in it was steaming, and poured it into a bowl, a boy was very sensible, and he couldn't see the male and female babies, but he hurriedly added water to the medicine pot, and then let the medicine stove burn the fire.
It was the broken wooden shed that had been built here for too long, it was all rotten and dilapidated, and some creepers and wisteria climbed on it, and Chen Tao held the bowl of medicinal soup, walked to the beggar under the shed, handed the bowl over, and said, "Drink, drink, and the disease will be cured." ”
The beggar was in tatters, the corners of his lips were festering poisonous sores, and it was very difficult to import and export qi, he drank the bowl of soup and medicine hard, obviously bitter and unpalatable, he frowned before eating, put the medicine bowl on the ground, gasped for breath, and thanked Chen Tao for his life-saving grace.
"Thief. Nan Huaijin felt sullen in her heart, she hadn't seen the thief all these years, he was no longer as old as he was at the beginning, and he had a beard all over his lips, it seemed that every time he came to see him, he was boiling medicine, under this shed that sheltered him from the wind and rain, treating the sick and saving people.
The world has made him like this, but he has never lost his way, he has always been saving people's lives, God destined him to be a healer who saves people, depriving him of his ear power, and even talking to the people around him seems so difficult.
"He has always been here, his reputation is outside, and he has become the most prestigious miracle doctor in Jiangnan. Ji Xiang said.
Some people say that this strange person doesn't talk to people all day long, but he goes up the mountain every day to collect medicine, and he doesn't leave the wooden shed, and the two county officials know his reputation, but he is a deaf doctor, and the whole Jiangnan, no matter who is sick, he will treat it with his heart, and never ask people for medicine money.
There is a rich son and daughter who is sick, he also treats them equally, as long as he goes to the wooden shed, he treats it with his heart, over the years, even the elixirs on the medicine mountain have become scarce because of him, but no medicine dealer will blame him for this.
"Healing and saving people is immeasurable. ”
There was once an old Taoist priest passing by, sighing, this old Taoist priest also looked at his ears for this thief, the old Taoist also knew some pharmacology, after seeing the ears of the thief, he sighed and left.
The sarcoma in the ear is getting bigger and bigger, and it has occupied the position in the pinna, and the blue-red copper bell has long been rusted to death, and there will be no more bells at all, only the sound of thieves often trembles in thunderstorms, and the headache is split by the noise of the bells in the ears.
Nan Huai Jin and Ji Xiang walked over, both of them were carrying long swords, and walked over slowly, a few passers-by saw it, take a look at it, Nan Huai Jin was too beautiful, and Ji Xiang looked too handsome, the two walked behind the thief, Nan Huaijin patted the thief's shoulder.
I still remember that when she went down the mountain, she was forced to worship the martial saint by this thief, and Nan Huaijin still felt that he was crazy, which was almost infuriating.
But now, Nan Huaijin knows that in this world of thieves, I am afraid that I will no longer be able to hear the sound except for the noisy bells.
Chen Tao turned his head and saw Lu Weisheng and Ji Xiang, he smiled: "It's you." ”
When Ji Xiang and they rescued He Xiao, they still came to look for the thief Sheng'er, and only then did they save the seriously injured He Xiao, now how many years have passed, the three of them have changed, Ji Xiang seems to have become a little uninhibited heroic, and Nan Huaijin is no longer the immature woman at the beginning, but a real girl's family, as for the thief Sheng'er, even a circle of scum, I can't see how big he is, but the name of the thief's voice, I'm afraid it's only better when the old Taoist priest calls him.
At the end, there was a pair of medicinal soup, Chen Tao touched the little heads of the two boys, there was still a little bit of light yellow soil left on his nails, he didn't care, wiped the sweat beads on his forehead and said, "Let's go, eat fish." ”
Nan Huaijin and Ji Xiang did not refuse, followed the steps of the thief, and stepped forward behind.
Among the two little boys, the taller one led the way with the medicine pot in both hands, and the younger one jumped behind him, jumping very happily, as if there was really a wild horse under his crotch, unruly, and the boy drove the horse galloping very fast.
It's like a paradise, but it's actually just a remote wooden house, with the sound of chickens and ducks, the old boy is sweating profusely at the moment, Nan Huaijin wants to take the medicine pot in his hand, but Chen Tao won't let him.
"This kid has never cherished his own medicine, and now it is time for him to know that this decoction is not easy to come by, and it will be seen if he dares to waste it in the future. Chen Tao whispered to Nan Huaijin.
It turned out that the thief had seriously told these children that he wanted to set up a rule, that is, every time he treated a patient, he would collect a copper coin, and if he sprinkled it on the road, he would not change it if he didn't drink it cold.
Of course, this is to coax these children, but I didn't expect to really scare these children, whether they are sick, or their family members are sick and need to take medicine, they are afraid, not afraid of a copper coin charged, but if the medicine is sprinkled and not drunk, then their parents will have no medicine to eat, and they will be sick in bed.
"These kids are really sensible. Nan Huaijin covered her mouth in surprise, she never thought that the thief had set up such a rule for these children not to waste medicinal materials.
Ji Xiang nodded and said to Nan Huaijin: "The heart of the doctor's parents." Brother Chen did this, firstly, so that these children did not dare to waste, and secondly, on the medicine mountains around this town, there were too many herbs excavated, even if Thief Sheng'er saved so many people, if he would get sick in the future, there would be no medicine available. ”
There is a thief, not only the people in the town come to seek medical treatment, the patients in Jiangnan learned that he has superb medical skills, and there are many people who come to seek medical treatment, and the thief can also be saved, not only the medicinal materials he can't find, but also the rare medicinal materials, even the medicine merchants can't find it.
"Why don't you let those who come to seek medical advice write down what they need and ask them to bring their own herbs?" Nan Huaijin asked, just herbs, if there is no medicine in this place, is there no one in the whole world?
Ji Xiang smiled, but turned his head to her in front of her: "If everyone prepares their own medicinal materials and spares no expense, then isn't everyone a pharmacist, and everyone starts to dig medicine up the mountain, then I'm afraid that when the time comes, they will all become rich and powerful, and the poor will only go up the mountain to collect medicine by themselves, so everyone has to prepare their own, and I'm afraid that Brother Chen won't give treatment at that time, isn't this a mess?"
Ji Xiang's words woke up the dreamer, Nan Huaijin didn't expect this, she nodded, and said with some surprise: "So that's the case." ”
Chen Tao is very smart, he will not force everyone to a dead end, he can only personally go up the mountain to collect medicine, treat the disease and save people, the more people he treats, the greater his reputation, and now that time has passed, the people who seek medical advice simply live in the town, such as some sick daughters and rich sons.
