Chapter Sixty-Seven: Compromise is only for the sake of the medical book
"Big, doctor, do you mean to say that Brother Mao ...... him" Aunt Gua in front of the fire was full of tears, and asked Xiao Jiu again in disbelief, "...... Time is running out?"
Her words landed softly, and there was silence.
I saw Xiao Jiu standing with his hands behind his back, staring at the figure in front of the wall of fire without saying a word.
Silence is the default......
Aunt Gua covered her mouth with her hands and hung her head, and soon there was a wailing sound in the cave.
Master Mao's eyes were completely thorough, and he asked Xiao Jiu with a serious expression: "How many days do I have to live?"
"It's hard to say. Xiao Jiu said, "Maybe it's not daylight." ”
He breathed a sigh of relief, "Enough, enough......" Master Mao said as he turned around and looked at the wall of fire in a daze.
Aunt Gua raised her teary eyes and asked cautiously: "Doctor, do you have any other methods?" Your medical skills are so good, please save Brother Mao......
She looked at me pleadingly, a little expectation on her face.
I also said to Xiao Jiu: "Xiao Jiu, is there really no other way?"
Xiao Jiu shook his head in embarrassment, and put his hand on his forehead to think for a moment, "Changjuesan and Snake Purple Medicine are fierce, and taking either of them is enough to kill people." What's more, there are two more that lie dormant in one person at the same time. If it was eighteen years ago, before the reverse growth of the body was triggered, I could still give it a try. But now that Yin Deficiency and Yang Lie have completely invaded his internal organs, even if he changes his new blood, there is still no way to take those broken internal organs. ”
Aunt Gua gasped when she heard this, and almost fainted, and took out a square towel to wipe the tears from the corners of her eyes. Master Mao on the side was still staring blankly at the wall of fire, and his mouth whispered. I don't know if he heard those words.
As a doctor but unable to save him, a trace of grief appeared on Xiao Jiu's pale face, and a trace of doubt gradually appeared in his eyes, and he asked me very entangledly, "Senior sister, is it because I am not good at medicine......?"
I shook my head at him, convinced, "No, Xiao Jiu. Maybe Master Mao ...... Destiny is so. ”
Xiao Jiu lowered his eyes, feeling a little powerless in vain. I gently patted him on the shoulder to show comfort, and saw his fists slowly clenched, "Although the poison of Changjuesan and Snake Purple cannot be dissolved, if you take care of it, you can still inhibit the aging of the internal organs and prolong your life...... As for the method of recuperation, I still have to go through Yun Niangniang's medical books to make a decision. ”
I nodded, and Aunt Gua raised her head suddenly, with the same expectation on her face as me, and was about to speak, but she was surprised to hear a loud shout and interject.
"You say-Yun Niangniang!"
Master Mao suddenly turned around, his body staggered forward, only to see his cheeks red and his eyes shocked, "You mean you have Yun Niangniang...... Medical books?"
Xiao Jiu didn't know why, so he looked at me with a frown, and then bowed his head at him.
"Then you are, but...... Her ......" saw a little joy on Master Mao's face for the first time, his lips and teeth trembled, and he was so excited that he couldn't speak.
"You misunderstood," Xiao Jiu gradually loosened his brows, as if he knew what he was thinking, and took his words, "I am a teacher of Mo Shang Villa, and my master's name is Mo Shang Sang, not a disciple of the medical saint Yun Niangniang. ”
"No, no......" Master Mao shook his head again and again, his eyes had not calmed down, he stared at Xiao Jiu's face tightly, and raised his hand slightly, "Child, how old are you this year?"
Xiao Jiu took a step back, avoided the hand that was reaching out towards him, looked at me again, and said in a suspicious tone: "I am sixteen this year." ”
Master Xu Shi Mao also sensed that something was wrong, and retracted his hand apologetically, the young man's cheeks became more and more red, but there was always a trace of vicissitudes in his eyes.
He muttered, "Sixteen...... Sixteen years old, two years short......"
Xiao Jiu and I were puzzled, and looked at Aunt Gua, who was also confused.
After Master Mao slowly calmed down and his expression returned to normal, he said to Xiao Jiu again: "Yun Niangniang's medical books, can you lend me Mao someone to take a look?"
This time his voice was clear. Probably didn't expect him to ask for such a request, Xiao Jiu was stunned and was silent for a while.
Master Mao's gaze on Xiao Jiu was full of sincerity.
Xiao Jiu finally said, "Yes." It's just that the medical books were kept in the guest house, and I didn't bring them up the mountain. ”
The eyes of the man in front of him flashed a little brightly, and before he could speak, a voice said:
"Don't worry, don't worry! Didn't the doctor say that Brother Mao urgently needs to recuperate? When the doctor comes up the mountain again, he will also take those medical books with him, so that he can do research...... And the girl, Shaoxia, you all live in peace in my guest house, and by the way, take a look at the customs of Qingquan Mountain. Aunt melon, I don't take a penny, I will let you eat and sleep well, and take care of you comfortably!"
Aunt Gua's expression became lively again, and her eyes shone brightly. Master Mao looked at her sideways, his tone flashed a little uncertain, and his words became solemn again, "Zhuzhu, you ......"
She immediately interrupted Master Mao's words and quickly said, "Brother Mao, the doctor just said that if your body can be well maintained, you can buy more time." You don't care, but you think about the great cause in your heart. And as long as the doctor comes up the mountain again, you can see those medical books. ”
Aunt Gua specially accentuated the words "those medical books", and Master Mao stopped speaking after listening to it for a while.
She took the opportunity to say, "Doctor, they live in my guest house, and I ask them to come up to the mountain to see you from time to time, okay?"
Master Mao bowed slightly, quietly turned his back and stared at the wall of fire.
Aunt Gua breathed a sigh of relief, patted her chest gently, and turned her head to look at us, with a little apology on her face.
Xiao Jiu looked at me and nodded solemnly.
I knew that he had made up his mind, and he shook his fist at the melon lady, and said with a smile,
"In the next few days, I will have to be taken care of by Aunt Gua. ”
"Where is the girl, it's the eldest lady who thank you. ”
She grinned, looking at us with deep gratitude in her eyes,
