Chapter 13 Jizhou Rescues People

The local state capitals of the Liao State still followed the Tang and Song official systems, but they also set up "military states" in each state capital, and they were often promoted by relatives or generals with military achievements. The Junzhou surname of this Jizhou Mansion is Xiao, called Xiao Baxi, and it can be regarded as a relative of the Empress Dowager Xiao who can beat the eight poles.

Xiao Ba loves money as much as his life, and collects heavy taxes and miscellaneous taxes on farmers and merchants every month. Now that she has just married the eighth concubine, the little wife is about to celebrate her birthday, in order to please her, Xiao Baxi specially commissioned someone to create a gold silk phoenix suit, which requires a lot of gold, silver and jewelry, and the cost is expensive. This period of Xiao Baxi was even more tyrannical, and the agricultural merchants in Jizhou increased their taxes for this, complaining about the hardships.

After breakfast this morning, Xiao Baxi was about to go to the state capital to ascend to the hall, and the front foot was out of the house, and the back foot was panting and chased out to stop the sedan chair, and hurriedly said: "Lord Qiqi, the eldest lady asks the adult to go back to the house quickly, and there is an urgent matter to discuss." ”

Xiao Baxi impatiently raised the sedan curtain and said, "What can't I wait for me to finish my business?"

"Adult, the little lady is sick, vomiting and diarrhea, unconscious, afraid of it, afraid of ......"

"What, isn't it good to have breakfast? Hurry, carry me back......" When Xiao Baxi heard that his little wife was sick, he was so shocked that the three corpses jumped violently, and he couldn't wait to rush back to the mansion with his wings in his ribs. When I entered the house, I saw the eldest lady sitting in the bedroom with a blue face, the little wife was wearing a golden silk phoenix dress, but her eyes were swollen, and she fell on the bed with a mouth full of white foam, and her pink face had already turned purple and blue.

"Ah, my little heart, what's wrong with you? Isn't it okay to dress up in the morning?" Xiao Baxi lay on the head of the bed and shouted, but heard the little wife mutter: "Red, blue, yellow, green, there are so many little people flying around, sir, look, does the eldest lady look like a big horse monkey?" Master, why is your face so long?"

Xiao Baxi was shocked: "What kind of evil is this? Hurry, don't you go and invite Lang Zhong to come." ”

The eldest lady said: "I've been here several times, and they all said that it was not good, so I won't look for it again." ”

As soon as the words fell, I heard someone outside the house running in three steps and two steps, panting and saying: "Yu, Yu master, I have searched all around, and they all say that they can't be cured." I met a self-proclaimed Wu Banxian just now, and I heard about the symptoms of the little lady, and said that it could be cured. ”

Everyone looked at the door and saw a young man walking in with a handsome little entourage, it was Wu Shijiu and Shuangxixi who were dressed as Lang Zhong.

Xiao Baxi looked up and down for a long time, as if it was hard to believe that such young two people were the so-called "half-immortals", and hesitated: "Dare to ask how long the two have been in Jizhou City, why have they never heard of it?"

Wu Shijiu said: "The old man is tired of asking, the two of us have traveled all over the world, and I happened to pass by your mansion today, and I saw a layer of black gas above the house, and I guessed that something big must have happened in the house, so I took the liberty to ask." ”

Xiao Baxi's eyes rolled: "Since this is the case, I have to ask the two of you, what is the big thing in my house? Where did the black qi come from?"

Wu Shijiu pretended to stroke his fake beard: "If you guess correctly, the little lady in your mansion is sick, and it is very tricky." ”

"Oh, tell me, what's wrong with my little lady?"

"The little lady should be swollen at the moment, hallucinating, and able to see things that mortals like me can't see, such as the little ......"

Before he finished speaking, Xiao Baxi couldn't hold back any longer, stepped forward and grabbed Wu Shijiu's hand and said: "Yes, yes, yes, as the divine doctor said, my little lady just said that there are colorful little people in the air, and I said that my face is ...... cough, you save her, you can save this official and be rewarded!"

Wu Shijiu pretended to walk to the bed, took a pulse, and looked at his face carefully, his brows twisted together. Xiao Baxi was so nervous that he was sweating profusely, and asked cautiously: "Ask Doctor Wu, ...... this disease?"

"The little lady's illness is really weird. It is said that the little lady should be peerless, and her longevity is long. I don't know why it alarmed the black mountain god who passed by, and now this black mountain god is attached to the little lady but refuses to go......"

The Black Mountain God is in charge of the life and death and soul of the Khitan people, and is most respected by the Khitan people, and is solemnly worshiped every winter solstice. Wu Shijiu shook his head and said it in a good way, that Xiao Baxi only listened to his mouth open widely, his face was yin and yang for a while, and he almost lost his joy when he saw Shuangxi on the side.

"Ahem...... "Ahem" Wu Shijiu covered his mouth and coughed a few times, glared at Shuangxixi, and continued to Xiao Baxi: "Don't you just want to ask the old man for his name?"

Xiao Baxi hurriedly said: "The surname is Xiao, and the name is Baxi." ”

"Well, dare to ask Master Xiao, this little lady, how many wives and concubines are you?"

"Eighth room. ”

"That's it, there is a Baxi in the name of the old man, and the little lady is the eighth wife and concubine of the old man, I think the old man's yang energy is too strong, and the little lady's body is weak and weak, and the old man's eight joys are rushed by the yang, and the yang energy is weak, so it is naturally easy to be possessed by the black mountain god. ”

"Ah......h Eight joys, eight rooms...... But I forgot about it, how could it be so coincidental!

"I have a pill here to keep her safe for a while, but if you want to invite the Black Mountain God to keep the little lady happy and healthy, I have someone to recommend it. ”

"Oh? The divine doctor said quickly, no matter who it is, the old man is willing to carry the sedan chair for him himself. ”

Looking at Xiao Baxi's anxious and white face, the eldest lady on the side looked unhappy: "If you are old and sick, I don't know if you have this blessing." ”

was robbed of her by this sentence, Xiao Baxi knew that he didn't cover his mouth, and he was bored.

The two of them had their own hearts, the atmosphere in the room was embarrassing for a moment, and the little lady had another seizure, panting and talking nonsense, what kind of big lady is old and jealous of herself, the second lady and the fifth lady have joined forces to embarrass themselves, how can the old man have no shape in the bed...... The further down it goes, the less serious it becomes. Xiao Baxi stomped his feet and said, "Oh, my divine doctor, what should ......I do?" Don't sell it. ”

Wu Shijiu pretended to be mysterious and beckoned to Xiao Baxi, and whispered a few words in his ear, Xiao Baxi's face changed greatly: "How can this work? I heard that she herself is a madman, and this person has a bad reputation, how can she cure diseases?"

Wu Shijiu said with a smile: "Miss Liang and your lady had the same illness at the beginning, but she has a family ancestral recipe, and after more than half a year of recuperation, she has been cured." So, if she can't cure this disease, who will?"

Xiao Baxi's eyes widened, and he still couldn't believe it for a long time.

Wu Shijiu said: "That's it, Master Xiao, you can send someone to invite Miss Liang now, when you get here, you can cure it or not, you will know if you try it." ”

Just after the hour, a family member trotted into the lobby of the Liang Mansion and stumbled: "Master, master, Master Xiao from Junzhou wants to invite you and Miss Liang to go over for a trip, and the carriage and horse are waiting outside the door." ”

Liang Fuping is in the medicinal materials business, and he has to pay a lot of taxes, but he usually works up and down to balance the relationship between the local assassin history and the military state, and he is also regarded as the local "head household", in today's words, it is a large taxpayer. At this time, I suddenly heard that the Lord Junzhou of Jizhou Mansion came to invite, and he wanted to bring his daughter with him, and he couldn't help but be full of fear.

The people in the Yanyun area were miserable under the control of the Khitans, and the government often fabricated charges and imposed heavy taxes.

Liang Fuping thought that his daughter's matter was going to be punished by the government, so he trembled and took Liang Biying to Xiao Baxi's mansion.

Xiao Baxi hurriedly stepped forward to help him up: "Liang Yuan doesn't have to be polite. I...... cough, my little lady occasionally feels heart disease, this ...... There is something ...... to act Something is out of order. Heard...... I heard that this Wu Banxian recommended that Miss Liang can exorcise ghosts and diseases, and has the art of resurrecting the dead, the official specially came to invite, and I hope that Miss Liang will not hesitate to help and save my lady. ”

These words made Liang Fuping so confused that the second monk was puzzled, and said in his heart that my daughter's madness was cured by Wu Gongzi, how could she treat others? When did this Wu Gongzi and the two girls become half-immortals again? What kind of medicine are they selling in this gourd?

He thought so in his heart, and it was inconvenient to say it in front of the Lord Junzhou, so he just excused himself and said: "How can the dog girl have this ability, please also ask the adults to see." He kowtowed as he spoke.

Wu Shijiu on the side saw Liang Biying standing still, and even made a look. Liang Biying understood, walked slowly to the little lady's bed, first checked the pulse, then pinched the recipe with one hand, recited words in her mouth, and then saluted Xiao Baxi and said: "Master Xiao, the folk woman dared to guess that the little lady was not overjoyed by the name of the old man, and provoked the possession of the Black Mountain God, so that the symptoms of visual and auditory hallucinations appeared?"

When Xiao Baxi heard this, he nodded again and again: "Yes, yes, Miss Liang is decisive, this Wu Banxian said the same thing just now." ”

Liang Biying said: "If it is difficult to cure this disease, it is not difficult to say, but it is not easy to say, but I am afraid of smoking the lord and wife." ”

Xiao Baxi hurriedly said: "Don't get in the way, don't get in the way, Miss Liang only cares about medical medicine, as long as she can heal my little lady, she can accept anything." ”

Liang Biying nodded, and glanced at Wu Shijiu Shuangxixi, and the three of them understood, took out a handkerchief and tied it around their mouth and nose.

"I bothered my mother-in-law to get a bowl of fresh garlic, a bowl of ginger all mashed into a puree, and then a spoon of soup. ”

The two mothers-in-law agreed to go, Liang Fuping saw that his daughter was pinching the mantra again, and she was taking the pulse and opening the prescription, and now she was covering her face with a scarf, and she couldn't help but be full of doubts, she couldn't understand what medicine was sold in her daughter's gourd, and thought that if she couldn't cure the disease for a while, would the people of the Liang Mansion still have a good life?

He was thinking wildly, and he couldn't do anything for a while. After a while, the next person brought a bowl of garlic and ginger, and Liang Biying took out a small bottle from her arms and poured some pills, mixed them with the garlic and ginger, stirred evenly, and fed the little lady spoonful by spoonful.

Less than half a cup of tea, only to hear a "ding" fart sound in the bed, and after a while, a foul smell came out, and everyone present covered their noses, and finally knew why the three of them covered their mouths and noses in advance.

After a while, the house was full of smell, and the eldest lady couldn't stand it, and said, "The old body is stuffy, go and wait outside." "Covered his nose and trotted out.

After a while, the little lady just farted vigorously, loud and smelly, Xiao Baxi couldn't help it, retched a few times, blushed and said, "This official...... The official ...... "Before he finished speaking, he covered his mouth and ran out." There were only Wu Shijiu, Shuangxixi, Liang Biying, Liang Yuanwai and two subordinates left in the house.

After a while, the two subordinates moved to the door step by step: "The fairy chief has something to tell me to wait, we will ...... at the door" and ran out as he spoke.

Shuangxixi frowned and said: "Outside Liang, please go outside and wait, your young lady is going to do it, and it is inconvenient for others to be here." ”

Liang Fuping was being smoked out of his body, and his stomach was almost overturned, but he was forced by the military state's majesty, how dare he go out. At this time, when I heard Shuangxixi say this, I couldn't care about it so much, so I turned around and ran out. Probably he has been practicing medicine and selling medicine for so many years, and he has never seen this kind of treatment.

At this time, only Wu Shijiu, Shuangxixi and Liang Biying were left in the house. Wu Shijiu nodded at Liang Biying: "You can start." ”

Liang Biying cleared her throat and said loudly: "There are three strange suns, moons and stars in the sky, the heavens and the earth are shocked, if there are fierce gods and ghosts, the evil on the earth will not stop, the sky is clear, the earth is spiritual, what god does not please, what ghost does not frighten." The patriarch is here, please retreat quickly!"

Every time she spoke, Wu Shijiu urged the flame palm to illuminate the room transparently. Others looked outside the house, only to see the room flickering brightly and darkly, and the firelight flickering, they all thought that Miss Liang was doing exorcism inside, and they were so frightened that they didn't dare to breathe.

After Liang Biying finished reading, Shuangxi walked to the bed, gently lifted the quilt, endured the stench, and put a little on the Tianshu acupoint and Shenque acupoint on the little lady's abdomen. Since she took the Xiangliu snake gall, and cultivated the water spirit technique according to her attributes, she has a feminine power, and this power has penetrated into it, and for a long time, the little lady has a rumbling sound in her belly.

Wu Shijiu smiled: "If we don't run, we will also be stinky to death." As soon as the three of them came out of the house, they heard the sound of the little lady in the house pouring one after another, and the poor golden silk phoenix costume made of heavy money also became a dung pocket.

Liang Biying couldn't hold back a smile, and saluted Xiao Baxi, who was waiting outside the house: "Congratulations to Master Xiao, the Black Mountain God has been invited away, and the residual poison in the little lady's body is being cleared, and she will be fine after a few days of recuperation." ”

Xiao Baxi was overjoyed, and hurriedly rushed into the house to see his beloved concubine, but forgot that the smell of detoxification was really amazing, and as soon as he entered the house, he staggered out and waved to the two mothers-in-law: "Quick, go and serve the little lady to wash." ”

The two subordinates gritted their teeth and covered their mouths and noses with handkerchiefs and entered the house to serve, and they scolded Xiao Baxi's ancestors for the eighteen generations in their hearts.

That night, Xiao Baxi held a family banquet to entertain Liang Fuping's father and daughter. Liang Biying politely refused, saying that the child was still young and wanted to go home to take care of it, Wu Shijiu and Shuangxixi also found a reason to refuse. Liang Fuping runs a pharmacy and needs to take care of the government, so he can't let go of this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, so he stayed.

On the way back, Liang Biying whispered to Wu Shijiu and Shuangxixi: "What method did you use to make that little lady hallucinate?"

Wu Shijiu smiled and said, "Miss Liang, do you know that there is a kind of mushroom called Jianrenqing?"

Liang Biying was born in a family of pharmacists, so she naturally knew that Jianrenqing was a poisonous mushroom, and suddenly said, "Ah?

"Yes, I've heard before that when you touch this mushroom, it turns gray and blue. After eating, it will paralyze the central nervous system and produce hallucinations. ”

Shuangxi smiled: "Don't say it, you know a lot about this crooked way." ”

Wu Shijiu said: "Hey, in our time, this is called science. I heard that this Xiao Baxi has a very bad official reputation, and he picks up the skin everywhere, but he loves this little wife very much, and in order to celebrate her birthday, he exploits local farmers and merchants. I thought of this way, firstly, to teach this corrupt official a lesson, and secondly, to help Miss Liang. Last night I snuck into his kitchen and added a little bit of powdered powder to his little wife's supper. ”

Shuang Xixi interrupted him and said, "Add a little bit, look at the appearance of that little lady, not a little more! If you have more, I'm afraid you will have to tell all the ugly things about that old man Xiao." ”

Liang Biying said with a smile: "Yes, I need to use garlic and ginger to detoxify when I see that people are young, you let me add some forsythia, sulforaphane seeds, lingxian and other exhaust gas, and finally add the two-finger acupressure massage and detoxification of Xixi girl." Wu Gongzi's method is good, but he has to wronged the little lady for a few days. ”

After saying that, the three of them laughed.

Sure enough, after the little lady woke up, she had been poisoned for a few days, she was eating garlic and farting, and Master Xiao didn't dare to get close for a few days, and the matter of taxation was also forgotten.

After this incident, the neighbors were impressed by Liang Biying, and Xiao Baxi invited a local calligrapher to splash ink, wrote the four big characters of "Xinglin Wonderful Hand", and made a pair of golden plaques to send. It is also rumored that Miss Liang is a clever hand, and the medicine is cured. Someone in Junzhou and Thorn Shi's family was sick and also came to ask her to come to the door for treatment. Fortunately, Liang Biying has been learning from her father to consult and prescribe medicine since she was a child, and some common diseases such as headache and brain fever are not difficult for her. The business of the Liang Mansion, with this gold-lettered signboard of his daughter, is flourishing day by day.

After a few days, Wu Shijiu and Shuangxi were leaving, but Liang Yuanwai resolutely refused and kept him repeatedly.

On this day, the two were confirming each other's kung fu in the courtyard, and someone came to report: "Wu Gongzi, there is a man surnamed Zhuge outside the door, saying that he is your senior brother and has a very urgent matter to see you." ”
