Qianjimen's reputation in the rivers and lakes is not to mention anything else, and almost everyone knows about the pill alone. Lu Qi had naturally heard rumors about Qianjimen's superb medical skills, so when he heard that Qi Qi was a person from Qianjimen, he was obviously stunned, and his attitude changed greatly.

Lu Qi's voice trembled with excitement: "You, are you really from Qianjimen?"

Qi Qi didn't say much, turned his head behind him, and when he turned around again, he was already looking like Liu Buxiu. When Lu Qi saw Qi Qilu's little hand, he immediately dispelled all his doubts. He was about to kneel, but he was quickly supported by Liu Buxiu.

Liu Buxiu grabbed Lu Qi's arm and asked, "Grandpa Lu, what are you doing here?"

Qi Qi didn't expect Lu Qi's reaction to be so big, and hurriedly said: "Grandpa Lu, don't make such a big salute, I can't afford it." It is the duty of a doctor to treat the sick and save people. As long as you believe in me, I will be able to heal your grandson. ”

After hearing this, Lu Qi almost burst into tears with gratitude, and immediately said: "My old man has no ability, as long as you can save Xiaofeng, I can promise you anything." Just leave the matter of the Fang Yuan box to me, I will help you open it even if I fight for this old life. ”

Saying that he was about to kneel again, Liu Buxiu hurriedly said, "Grandpa Lu, don't say that." We didn't want to trade with you to save your grandson. It doesn't matter if you don't want to open it, let's find other solutions, don't worry about your efforts, don't get me wrong. ”

Yu Xiaohang came over at this time and said: "Oh, shopkeeper, Grandpa Lu, it's not me who said, since the box can't be opened, since it's secondary, let's take a look at the patient's situation first, and if you continue to talk about it, you will delay Qiqi's treatment." ”

Liu Buxiu patted his head and said apologetically: "Xiaohang is right, look at my mind is thinking about how to open the box." It's really time to see the patient first, Grandpa Lu, you can lead us to meet Xiaofeng first. ”

Lu Qi nodded, and then led everyone out of Sheng'er's house to the next door. Lu Qi's home is slightly better than Sheng'er's house, but it is only a little better, and it also looks poor and white, but the utensils at home are all good, and it is no wonder that there is a carpenter's inheritance.

Lu Qi led a few people into the inner room, at this time Sheng'er was lying on the edge of the bed talking to a young man lying on the bed, and when he saw Lu Qi and Liu Buxiu and others coming in, he stood up and happily pointed at Qi Qi and said, "Brother Xiaofeng, this is the divine doctor sister I told you." ”

The boy struggled to get up to meet him, but he really didn't have any strength at all, and his upper body barely held up a few inches high, and he lay down again. Seeing this, Lu Qi hurriedly stepped forward to help Xiao Feng put two pillows behind him, let him sit there, and blamed with concern: "You kid, you are sick like this and you still get up by yourself, do you want my old man to worry about death?"

At this time, a few people saw the young man's appearance clearly, the young man's square face was pale, his lips were blue, and there seemed to be a dark cloud in the hall, and the whole person looked sick. The thirteen or fourteen-year-old boy has a very large skeleton, but it can be seen that his body is already skinny because of the infection, and he is so thin that he has lost his appearance.

Xiao Feng struggled to squeeze out a smile, his voice was extremely low, and he said weakly: "Grandpa, isn't there a guest coming, the etiquette is still there." ”

Lu Qi glanced at him helplessly, turned his head to Liu Buxiu and said, "Shopkeeper Liu, see you smile." Although my grandson has inherited our family craft, he loves to read, and now he is a nerd, and he even cares for his life for the sake of courtesy. ”

Liu Buxiu smiled and joked: "It's okay, it's okay, your grandson is much better than these guys in my store." ”

Xiao Feng looked apologetic and said, "Shopkeeper Liu, Sheng'er told me just now. You just knocked at the door, and I heard you. But you also see my body, and it is a little difficult to even speak, and I really can't respond to you and open the door for you. With that, he began to cough violently.

Qi Qi saw that Xiao Feng's state was very poor, and hurriedly interrupted the conversation of several people, and said: "Shopkeeper, let me see his situation first, you go outside and wait for me first, I need a quiet environment." ”

Everyone nodded yes and followed Lu Qi to the courtyard. In the courtyard, Liu Buxiu had some doubts in his heart, and asked Lu Qi tentatively: "Grandpa Lu, there are some things I don't know whether to ask or not." ”

"But it doesn't hurt to say that. ”

"Grandpa Lu, is Xiaofeng the only one in your family? As far as I know, you are Mikasa, who has only arrived in the past few days. Where are Komine's parents, and I don't understand why you chose to return to Mikasa at this time?"

Lu Qi's expression was a little gloomy, and he explained: "Since Shopkeeper Liu can find me, you must also know why I am a tomb keeper in the imperial tomb." In the end, it was all the carpenter's skills handed down from the family. I have a total of three sons, and my youngest son, Lu Li, is Xiaofeng's father, who has been amazingly talented in carpentry since he was a child, and he almost reached the point where he could not learn when he was only a teenager. But you also know that whenever a new monarch succeeds to the throne, the construction of the imperial mausoleum will begin immediately. Once the construction begins, it is necessary to recruit all kinds of craftsmen from the people, and our craftsmen have the best craftsmanship, so they are naturally the objects of recruitment. ”

Speaking of this, Lu Qichang let out a long sigh and continued: "Once you enter the Imperial Mausoleum, it is basically difficult to come out. So in order to keep the incense of my old Lu family, my eldest son Lu Huo offered to participate in the construction of the imperial mausoleum, he was only twenty-three years old and had not yet married a family. It didn't take long for Hor to die of overwork. But although the person died, the vacancy had to be filled, so my second son Lu Zhi filled his brother's vacancy and entered the imperial mausoleum. However, it didn't take long for the second child to die, so it was the turn of my youngest son, Lu Li, who is still in the imperial tomb. ”

"Xiaofeng and my little daughter-in-law Huifang are left in the family, but God has no eyes, Huifang's such a virtuous and kind child was infected with the plague and died of illness within a few days. Before leaving, she asked someone to go to the imperial tomb to deliver a message to me, asking me to come back and take care of Xiaofeng. I originally thought that God had finally opened his eyes and left me a grandson, but who knew that this only grandson was also infected with the plague because of taking care of Huifang. ”

After listening to Lu Qi's narration, everyone couldn't help but be moved, and what surged into everyone's hearts was a deep sense of powerlessness. Regarding what the royal family is doing, they really can't do anything about it. A few people saw Wen Daiyu with their own eyes a while ago, and they saw that this person's style of acting was not a mediocre talent, and he was not bad at governing the country. However, there are many officials up and down the country, and once the orders from above have been passed on repeatedly, no one knows what will become, and this matter is no wonder to the Southern Zhou Emperor.

Moreover, the operation of the country sometimes has to rely on some moths, so it is not something that can be solved overnight. Liu Buxiu and the others could only sigh and sigh with Lu Qi, but that was all.

At this time, Qiqi came out of the house in time, breaking the dull atmosphere in the courtyard. "Okay, I have already taken it to Xiao Feng with a medicinal juice mixed with Sister Fang's blood, Grandpa Lu, you have to keep an eye on Xiao Feng at all times, this medicine will make people very hot at first, you must let Xiao Feng drink more water and keep warm, take it twice in the next two days, he should be able to move on the ground." ”

Lu Qi rubbed his hands excitedly, a little overwhelmed. "Great, old man, I really don't know how to thank you, can I go in and see Xiaofeng now?"

Qi Qi thought for a moment and said, "He just fell asleep, and you are afraid of waking him up if you go in now." It's good to go in after a cup of tea, be sure to prepare water, remember to remember!"

Sheng'er patted her chest happily, jumped up and stretched out her hand and said, "Let me come when you serve Brother Xiaofeng to drink water, I will never forget it." ”

Everyone couldn't help but laugh when they saw Sheng'er's performance.

Xiao Yue suddenly frowned and asked, "Oh, that's right." Grandpa Lu, when you came back just now, you said that the medicine bag you carried was the medicine you asked for from the City Lord's Mansion?

"Oh, you forgot to mention it. Those people in the City Lord's Mansion really lost their conscience, everyone actually knew that his medicine could not cure diseases, but no one was ruthless and watched their relatives die in pain, so they all went to buy the city lord's medicine. I heard from the people who asked for medicine that at first the lord of the castle still sold medicine, but gradually he stopped selling it casually, and only those who signed a contract with them could buy medicine. ”

Qi Qi clenched his fists angrily and said indignantly: "Isn't this spending money to buy poison!"

"What kind of contract did you sign?" asked Liu Buxiu.

Lu Qi shook his head and said with a wry smile: "It depends on what you have, if you have a house, you will sign the deed, if you have land, you will sign the deed, and if you have nothing, you will sign the deed of sale." To tell you the truth, I don't know this city lord, but I know the old city lord, he is upright and upright, and I really don't believe that the children he taught would do such a thing. Strange to say, though, although it was the lord's order, I asked the other people who went to ask for medicine, and they didn't see the lord like me, only the lord's butler. ”

After Yu Xiaohang understood, he asked tentatively: "Grandpa Lu, according to what you say, everyone who goes to ask for medicine must sign it, so aren't you ...... too?"

Lu Qi nodded and said, "That's right, I signed it too." I sold my family's land to the lord of the city, and this is the opportunity to ask for medicine. ”

Yu Zhao hugged his shoulders and asked puzzledly: "Isn't this city lord afraid that he will get sick? According to common sense, if such a large-scale plague suddenly breaks out, isn't the most normal reaction for people to leave as soon as possible? How can they still think about the Fa to accumulate money, is it really asking for money and not dying?"

"I don't know about this, but looking at the attitude of the city supervisor's family, it is obvious that there is no fear, and there is no news of a person being infected in the city lord's mansion, it seems that they have a way to deal with it. Lu Qi shook his head and said.

"But this is not right, he obviously has a way to save the people from the plague, but he still wants to sell some poison to you, is it necessary? Since the purpose of accumulating wealth has been achieved, wouldn't it be more beneficial for him to let the people survive, and can a person with such character really become the lord of the city?"

Liu Buxiu shook his head, and sighed with emotion: "It seems that we have to go to the City Lord's Mansion to find out." ”
