Chapter 22: The Strange Greeting Party

"Dugu Che, have you finished cleaning up, we won't wait for you anymore!"

put out the fire, cleaned up after leaving Wanxiao, and ran to lead the horse, and when she was done with her work, Dugu Che was still sorting out the package. A big man, grinding and chattering, is really unbearable.

"Don't worry about the girl, I'll take a look. Bai Shasha comforted her a few words, and then wanted to help.

At this time, Dugu Che happened to come over with his luggage, looked at the two of them, and led the horse directly. In order to lighten the burden on the horse, he carried all the luggage alone, and rode with Wanxiao and Bai Shasha.

Although Dugu Che was delayed a little more in the morning, at this speed, there was still hope that he could reach the small village below the mountain before dark. The outline of the village can already be faintly seen halfway up the mountain, and the mountain is dewy and foggy.

It seems that he also understands Dugu Che's temper, Bai Shasha is not as nonsense as yesterday, and she looks very honest with Li Wanxiao, and both of them rarely talk uncharacteristically.

It was late autumn, there were not many trees in this barren mountain, all low shrubs and dead grass, and two horses and three people walked on the path very pleasantly.

In order to hurry up, they got up early, and the cool air was so cold that she kept wiping her nose with Wanxiao, and it was still cold when she wrapped her clothes tightly.

"Do you see that there are any thicker clothes in the package?" It was so cold that he could only ask Dugu Che for help, he wore a coat bought in a small inn, two copper plates, the old ones were old, but they could keep out the cold. Originally, she also wanted to have one, but the dress was too wide, her petite figure couldn't hold it up at all, and riding a horse was still very in the way, so she didn't buy it after thinking about it, and now it's too late to regret it.

Dugu Che didn't rummage through the packed luggage, took off his coat and handed it to her, and his body temperature was still on the clothes. After taking the clothes, Li Wanxiao immediately wrapped herself tightly, pulling the reins with one hand and holding the clothes with the other, showing only two eyes to see the road.

Bai Shasha didn't feel cold, but leaned back towards Wanxiao, her eyes still stayed on Dugu Che, "Brother Hero, the two of us, why did you only give one? People are also cold~"

This woman already looks charming, and her delicate and aggrieved appearance at this time is even more endearing, of course Dugu Che will ignore her.

"I'm wearing a big dress, let's go together. As he spoke, he opened his clothes and wrapped the white gauze yarn together, two people wearing one dress, air leakage is inevitable, but it can also be warmer to some extent.

Dugu Che frowned when he saw this, since he met Bai Shasha, his smile has been weird, he didn't say much in his eyes, maybe Bai Shasha really said something to her that touched her kind heart?

It is said that there will be demons on the way to the junction of humans and demons, but except for the big python they met along the way, everything else was quite smooth. Of course, this may also be because they haven't gone far, the only thing that worries Dugu Che is Liwanxiao, with this girl's character, she shouldn't be quiet and silent, or maybe the hard work and boredom of the journey make her feel very tired.

The mountains are secluded and the village is lively.

The group went down the mountain and didn't go far to the entrance of the village, I don't know what day it is, there seems to be someone in the village doing a happy event.

The three dismounted and walked into the village side by side. Li Wanxiao carefully looked at this small village that was not too big, it was all houses made of wooden planks, and there was a lot of hay piled up outside the house, which seemed to be stored for winter. It is very similar to the small mountain village where she used to live, but it is obviously not as poor as the mountain people in the mountains, and there are some small stalls on the side of the road to buy things, and some people even take the herbs dug from the mountains to sell here.

"This village is much better than ours. Li Wanxiao sighed inexplicably.

In the distance, a team came to welcome relatives, and the big red sedan chair was blowing and blowing, so lively.

"Hey, it's really time for us to come, someone is married, let's go and have a meal!" Bai Shasha is very lively, how can she not go to see such a good thing?

Wanxiao nodded, "Okay, let's take a look." ”

The three of them walked towards the welcoming team, and before they got close, they heard a heart-rending cry.

"Girl~ Why are you so miserable!"

"I killed it that day, why didn't God come down and kill it with a thunderbolt!"

The crying was an old woman who was nearly half a hundred years old, chasing the sedan chair all the way and refusing to leave, and she could faintly hear a low sobbing sound from the sedan chair.

"What's the matter??," Li Wanxiao said strangely, "We want to cry when we get married, but we don't cry like this." ”

"Of course there is no such way of crying, this is clearly robbing relatives. Bai Shasha snorted coldly, "This girl doesn't want to marry, but she is taken by someone, and the other party is rich and powerful, so she snatches people away." ”

"This kind of thing can't be managed, let's go. ”

The world is chaotic, this kind of hurtful thing happens every day, and there is no one who has the ability to rob the people's daughters in broad daylight, they are just passing by, and it is better to cause less trouble.

Li Wanxiao grabbed her, "Even if we don't care, we can go and see the excitement, let's go!"

There are not many people who greet relatives, except for the sedan chair, only four small servants open the way while blowing. The three of them led their horses and walked over, but were suddenly stopped by an old man on the side of the road who was also watching the excitement.

"You guys are from outside, aren't you?" the old man glanced at a few people, shook his head, and said, "Young man, wait for them to go before leaving, and you can't afford to bump into others." ”

"Old man, doesn't anyone care about this kind of thing?" said Li Wanxiao strangely.

The old man waved his hand, "I can't control it, unless the gods descend to earth, no one can control it." ”

The three of them glanced at each other, this kind of thing can only be solved by the immortals?

At the old man's suggestion, the three of them didn't say more. The sedan chair for welcoming relatives was getting closer and closer, and Dugu Che, who was walking behind the two, silently took half a step forward, protecting Li Wanxiao behind him.

"What's wrong?"

"There's a bad smell. After saying that, when she was surprised by Wanxiao, Bai Shasha retreated behind her unobtrusively.

In front of the welcoming procession, there was a lively and lively blowing of joy, but behind was the cry of the girl's family, passing through the crowd, and the faces of the onlookers were full of indifference. Obviously, in their eyes, this has long been taken for granted.

Watching the team to the entrance of the village, the cry suddenly became louder, and when I looked carefully, it turned out that these people could only be sent to the entrance of the village, and I watched the bride being carried out of the village by the big red sedan chair.

"Alas, what iniquity. ”

The old man sighed, and when he saw that the crowd of onlookers was gradually dispersed, he walked towards the bride's family, who knelt at the entrance of the village and refused to get up.

Li Wanxiao glanced at Dugu Che, and then followed.

The old woman who had been crying so much sat on her knees, unable to scold anymore, just crying, and the people around her couldn't persuade her.

"Xing'er, mother, everyone is gone, don't cry and break your body. The old man sighed, "We can't help it, if the child doesn't go, our whole village will suffer." ”

Speaking of this, the old woman suddenly cried and knelt up, and grabbed the corner of the old man's clothes, "Village chief, Xing'er's father just left three days ago, and now Xing'er has also been sent away, how can you let me live alone!"

"Village chief, the child is innocent, he can't be sent to let that devil be ruined in vain, you let me go! Even if I die with Xing'er, I am willing!"

"Please, please!"

The old woman kowtowed to the village chief as she spoke, and she felt distressed when she looked at it, she really felt sorry for her parents all over the world.

As soon as she wanted to go up and help the old woman up, she was dragged by the white gauze behind her, and shook her head to suggest that she should not be nosy.

While she was hesitating, the old woman who kept kowtowing like crazy suddenly fell to the ground, unconscious! Li Wanxiao was suddenly startled, and hurriedly ran over to help the person up, pinching the person hard, but there was still no improvement, and she shouted in a hurry: "Village chief, quickly find someone to help, she fainted!"

A few people around immediately lifted the old woman up, but fortunately her house was not far from the entrance of the village, and everyone put her on the bed, but they had trouble finding a doctor.

One person said: "It's not okay to be so dizzy all the time, why don't I go and call the medicine seller to take a look?"

"Do you still believe in the medicine seller? He doesn't even know what kind of medicine he sells, can he treat people?"

Everyone, you say a word, it's easy to say how you live in their village, just don't get sick, because there is no doctor in the village, and you can only carry it when you are sick, and if you can't carry it, you will accept your fate.

Li Wanxiao thought for a while and said, "I'll try." ”

"Will you see a doctor?" Bai Shasha was a little surprised. Several people in the room looked at her, a little girl from outside, and she was still a doctor?

It was the first time to be looked at by so many people, Wanxiao was a little uncomfortable, and coughed lightly, "I have studied a little, and I know a little about medical skills." ”

It's better to know a little than not to know!

With the mentality of a dead horse being a live horse doctor, the village chief promised to let her show the old woman, but there was no way to cure it.

I tried to remember what Master had done when he used to treat people, and I couldn't ask about it, and I couldn't ask anything, so I could try the other three things.

Hold out two fingers on the old woman's wrist and carefully gauge the beating pulse.

Judging from the pulse, it seems to be a bit similar to the anger and attack that Master said before, but it is caused by excessive anger, can it be that if you cry too much, you will also fall into a coma?

Tried snorting again, and there was!

There is a heartbeat, too!

Frowning and thinking for a while, Li Wanxiao gave the diagnosis uncertainly, "Well, this symptom may be a rush to the heart, it stands to reason that there is no need to take medicine, let her sleep for a while, and she will wake up naturally when she rests." ”

Wake up after a short sleep?

This kind of treatment makes everyone look at each other, and if they can sleep to cure the disease, then the sun can really come out of the west.

After speaking, Li Wanxiao looked at the village chief, "She's just too sad to come up in one breath, just let her slow down, but this is also a way to treat the symptoms but not the root cause." ”

Originally, Bai Shasha reminded her not to worry about idle things, but if this old woman can't find her daughter, even if she wakes up, she will probably wash her face with tears. So she glanced at Dugu Che's iceberg face, and saw that he still had no expression, so she gritted her teeth and said, "What's wrong with her daughter?" ”
