Chapter 23: Digging
Chapter 23
"Boss, what's wrong with you!"
Li Xiangchuan squatted down, Zhou Kang's body was rickety, his chest rose and fell violently, and he wanted to say something, but his teeth were clenched together.
"It's ......"
Li Xiangchuan is a doctor after all, although he is panicked, he is not confused. Zhou Kang's current condition is very similar to the sequelae caused by a sharp weapon.
This strange illness often occurs on the battlefield, where someone is cut open in the stomach by a knife, bandaged indiscriminately, and after a while he is healed. But someone just gently punctured a wound, and then suddenly became ill and died.
For this disease, everyone has not yet found the cause, and it can only be attributed to the possession of powerful ghosts.
Li Xiangchuan knew how to deal with the emergency, so he immediately wrote a recipe for detoxification and ordered the servants to decoction the medicine.
He stayed in the room by himself, stripped Zhou Kang of his clothes, and looked for wounds on his body.
The wound was on the back, pierced by a fingernail.
Li Xiangchuan took out a short knife, disinfected it with a candle flame, opened the wound, and poured it with a large amount of hot water.
Zhou Kang suddenly convulsed, spitting saliva in his mouth, and spit out a mouthful of blood.
Li Xiangchuan's hand holding the knife trembled, not because he didn't know what to do next, but because he had calculated it just now.
It was exactly three and a half hours since leaving the Wutong Sect, no more, no less.
An aura of terror gripped his heart tightly.
............
The next morning.
Zhuang Yisheng walked out of the room after washing up, and thought silently in his heart.
"Can you find a solution to the problem by going down the mountain now?"
"Will it rain in the morning?"
"Will there be any danger when going down the mountain?"
......
After a moment of silence, Zero replied in the negative.
Since you can't find the answer to the problem, you don't need to go down the mountain.
Qiu Lanpei saw that Zhuang Yisheng, who was obviously ready to go out, walked back again.
What is he doing?
Qiu Lampe was confused.
Suddenly there was a voice at the bottom of the mountain.
"Help, help!"
Qiu Lanpei followed the sound and looked over, only to see Li Xiangchuan walking up the mountain quickly, carrying a person on a stretcher behind him.
After looking carefully, she recognized that it was Zhou Kang on the stretcher.
The last time I saw Zhou Kang was a few days ago, at that time, Zhou Kang was dressed in brocade clothes and was arrogant. But now, his body is clumped, his teeth are clenched, and the expression on his face is like crying and laughing, and he is extremely embarrassed.
Zhou Kang said last time that the next time they meet, they will definitely be different.
Now, it's different.
"Ask the son to treat our host?" Li Xiangchuan's face was full of sadness.
Zhuang Yisheng frowned, opened his mouth, and stopped talking.
"I personally showed it to the owner, and I invited many doctors, and my son's condition is getting worse and worse. Li Xiangchuan said: "Now only you can save the owner." ”
"Uh, this ......"
"I know that the owner has offended you, you are a large man, don't be like him. As long as you save your son, we are willing to reward you with a lot of money. ”
Li Xiangchuan was ruthless, and puffed to Zhuang Yisheng's knees.
"Ask the son to help. ”
Zhou Kang, who was on the stretcher, stretched out his hand and wanted to ask Zhuang Yisheng for treatment, but he couldn't make a sound.
Tyulampe wasn't on the mountain yesterday and didn't know what was going on. When her father was sick, he gave medicine to the Huichun Hall on credit, and when he came and went, he owed millions of taels of silver.
At that time, she was also begging bitterly, but if she didn't have money, Huichun Tang would never look at herself more.
Seeing Zhou Kang like this now, she suddenly felt a sense of revenge.
"Uh...... Actually, I won't cure it. ”
"Huh?"
Li Xiangchuan looked demented, Zhuang Yisheng said so accurately yesterday, and the time was exactly the same, so Li Xiangchuan felt that Zhuang Yisheng must be a master of Xinglin.
He also was under a lot of pressure and persuaded many people to carry Zhou Kang up the mountain, knowing that it must be humiliation, and he was ready to be humiliated by Zhuang Yisheng.
But Zhuang Yisheng said that he would not be able to cure.
Yes, Zhuang Yisheng never said that he would be cured.
It can be seen that Zhou Kang is sick because Zero deduces it based on his body surface characteristics, and the calculation is very simple.
However, curing Zhou Kang's illness requires more intensive calculations, and Zhuang Yisheng is now unable to provide enough energy.
According to the information given by Zero, Zhou Kang's illness was tetanus. In previous lives, antibiotics were used to destroy the virus.
Zhuang Yisheng had no choice.
"Let's find someone to take a look, if it's faster, it should be too late. ”
Li Xiangchuan stood up, waved his hand and said, "Let's go." ”
Several people carried stretchers and quickly left to find the masters of the capital.
"Childe, is he going to die?" Qiu Lanpei said as she looked at their backs as they descended the mountain.
"Probably not. Zhuang Yisheng said: "The young man's body is still quite strong. ”
This disease mainly depends on the body's immunity, and drugs are only an adjunct. But Zhou Kang is so strong, how could he suddenly get sick?
Zhuang Yisheng knocked on his head, a little puzzled.
"It's a pity. ”
Qiu Lanpei sighed leisurely, her eyes full of flames of revenge.
............
A period of time passed, and on this day, Zhuang Yisheng came to the back mountain with Shura Tiger in his arms.
It's been almost a month since I started mining, and Zhuang Yisheng came over to take a look.
He saw Zhao Hai: "How is the mining?"
"It went well. Zhao Haidao.
"Got a mine?"
"Nope. ”
Belch...... Zhuang Yisheng was speechless for a while, waved his hand for a while, and said, "Explain?"
"The progress of the project is very smooth, there are no accidents, there are no casualties among the workers, and the weather is good these days. Zhao Haidao: "The reason why there is no mine is that there is no mine here at all." ”
Zhao Hai is still firm in his initial cognition.
No, there will be no error in the results given by the zero.
"I'll go down and have a look. ”
Zhuang Yisheng left Shura Tiger, and Zhao Hai led him inside, the mine road was inclined downward, and the light was dim.
Going down about fifty meters, it is still an ordinary mountain rock, and there is no trace of any minerals.
"Childe, the money in the account is almost insufficient, so I can only hold on for a few days. If you want to continue to hire us, you have to pay more. Zhao Haidao: "But I advise you not to work in vain, it's still too late to stop." ”
"Zero, how much money do I have now. ”
"You don't have any money."
Zero is an excellent accountant, and it is also a free kind, and the expenses this month are a bit large, and Zhuang Yisheng has little money left.
According to Zhuang Yisheng's estimate, the mine should be able to be mined in a month, and when it is connected, he can carry out a virtuous cycle.
"Zero, what's going on, isn't there a mine here?"
"Yes"
"Why can't you dig it up now?"
"Just because there is ore at the bottom of the mountain does not mean that it can be dug up."
Belch...... Zhuang Yisheng was speechless again, and said in his heart: "You can also explain, right?"
"Based on the stony and vegetation on the surface, Zero speculates that there is a star mine underneath, but the ore is buried deep and difficult to mine."
Yes, if you can dig it out normally, it won't be your turn to dig it yourself.
"Zero, do the math, how deep do you need to dig?"
『52.1 m』
Zhuang Yisheng's face turned a little pale. He also knows that the further down he digs, the more difficult it becomes, and the more money he needs to spend.
Zhao Hai persuaded again: "Childe, stop it, with my years of knowledge, it is impossible to dig to this extent." ”
"Dig. Zhuang Yisheng knocked on the stone wall: "I want to find a way to deal with money." ”
