Chapter 227: Toad Essence
This sudden outbreak of smallpox plague, as sudden as it came, and no warning when it left, quietly became a thing of the past, and the city of Suzhou returned to its former prosperity, but there were a few joys, a few sorrows, but the smile was hidden under the sadness.
Xu Xian, Xu Hanwen is famous, I don't know how many people call it Xu Shen Doctor, people spread by word of mouth, I believe that it will not be long before a state will know its name, and Baoantang because of Xu Xian's consultation, it is also a successful foothold in Suzhou City, and there is an endless stream of people who come to see a doctor and take medicine on weekdays.
Bai Suzhen occasionally helps in the pharmacy, in terms of her medical skills, common diseases can be prescribed, women who know how to heal in this era are scarce, almost invisible, and when everyone learns that she is the boss behind this security hall, their hearts are even more respectful, and many people call her "living bodhisattva".
Not only because she treats people and takes medicine, but also because of the good deeds carried out by Baoan Tang, free of charge for poor families, and even beggars living on the streets.
When Qiao Chen'an came out of the inner hall, he saw Xu Xian seeing a doctor on the side, and on both sides were big medicine cabinets, full of various medicinal materials, while Bai Suzhen was standing on the other side, looking at everything in the store, he suddenly felt that there was a sight cast, looked back, and when he saw Qiao Chen'an, he couldn't help but smile and said, "Chen'an." ”
Qiao Chenan came to her side and said with a smile: "Su Zhen, what are you doing here?
Bai Suzhen's beautiful eyes glared slightly, and she seemed to be a little reproachful: "After all, the career of the security hall has just started, I am afraid that something will go wrong, and someone needs to take care of it from time to time, but you are good, and you directly become the shopkeeper!"
Qiao Chen'an couldn't help but smile when she heard her say this, deliberately bent down and saluted, and said with a smile: "Then there is Sister Lao! Sister is hard, after I go back, I will beat your back and pinch your shoulders for you." As he spoke, he laughed first.
"Flim Flam!"
Seeing him like this, Bai Suzhen couldn't help but feel slightly angry, but she was helpless against her younger brother, and she was reluctant to scold half a point.
While the two were talking, they suddenly heard the sound of a bell shaking outside the door, crisp and far away, and at the same time a voice shouted: "Ask fortune telling, enter wealth and eliminate disasters!"
The two of them looked out when they heard the sound while talking, and saw a middle-aged Taoist priest passing by the door, holding a banner flag in his left hand, with four big characters written on the flag, "for the way of heaven", and a bronze bell in his right hand, shaking non-stop, and bursts of bells rang out.
The Taoist priest was dressed in a yellow robe, painted with Taoist gossip images, his head was tied in a bun, his cheeks were slightly bulging, his eyebrows were thick, and he had a beard under his chin.
Qiao Chenan felt that this Taoist priest was quite strange, and couldn't help frowning, but Bai Suzhen on the side showed a little doubt on his face, and vaguely felt that the Taoist priest was a little familiar, pinched his fingers, his eyes lit up, and said, "It turned out to be him!"
Qiao Chenan was puzzled and asked, "Su Zhen, what can you calculate, could it be that the Taoist priest is strange?"
After the two recognized themselves as sisters and brothers, the relationship became much closer than usual, and Bai Suzhen did not hide his plans, so he said: "That Taoist priest's name is Wang Daoling, and he also cultivated in Qingcheng Mountain for a period of time......
Qiao Chen'an suddenly felt that there was something wrong with the old way, but he didn't expect it to be the toad spirit king Daoling, and couldn't help but think of the Xinbai plot he had seen in his previous life, this toad essence was originally cultivated in the same mountain as Bai Suzhen, but later because of his covetousness, he tried to marry Bai Suzhen as a Taoist couple, and was taught a lesson by her, and since then he has held a grudge, and then he has been against Bai Suzhen everywhere, and even poisoned various wells in Suzhou City in order to sell his own "elixir".
Qiao Chen'an recalled these things, but he didn't have the slightest worry, since he already knew the details and plans of the other party, the next thing he had to do was to see the move, if the toad essence was really so excessive, he didn't mind teaching him another hard lesson.
Bai Suzhen's face showed a faint color, but she was kind, even if she knew that Wang Daoling was in Suzhou, she didn't want to do anything with him.
After Wang Daoling walked through the security hall, he did not leave immediately, but waited at a street corner not far away, always staring at the direction of the security hall, and saw that a doctor had returned with medicine, so he stepped forward and made a joke and asked: "Dare to ask this son, who is the person sitting in the security hall?"
The man glanced at him suspiciously, and said, "You don't even know this, naturally it's Xu Xian Xu Divine Doctor." ”
Wang Daoling laughed dryly twice and said, "Poor Dao came from other places, but he didn't know about it. He rolled his eyes and said, "I saw a man and a woman standing side by side in that shop, and the woman was dressed in white, but I don't know who it is, and what does it have to do with this security hall?"
"Well, those two are sisters and brothers, and they are also the owners of the security hall, who treat the poor people in the city for free and get medicine, but they are first-class good people!"
Wang Daoling looked at the direction of the security hall from afar, his face couldn't help showing a little coldness, and secretly said Bai Suzhen, Bai Suzhen, since we meet again today, the shame we suffered back then must be doubled, since this security hall was opened by you, then I will destroy it. Hundreds of years of grievances will be settled at this time.
Thinking of Qiao Chen Anlai beside her, her eyes were a little cold, and she said to herself: "Brother, then let's start with you! Who told you to be so close to him!" turned around and walked out of the city.
Although the sky is clear, tomorrow is hanging high, and a gust of wind blows, but the alley seems to be a little colder.
Bai Suzhen didn't know Wang Daoling's plans, and after staying in the security hall for a long time, she returned to the courtyard outside the city, perhaps after thousands of years of practice, she was used to loneliness, compared to the lively red dust, she still liked to be quiet.
It was already the weather in May, and the location of Suzhou was far south, and the weather was already very hot, Qiao Chen'an came to the pavilion and saw that Bai Suzhen was only wearing a plain white thin shirt, and her body was leaning on the railing of the pavilion, revealing two snow-white lotus arms, and her face was a little red because of the heat, and her expression was lazy, which was even more charming and moving.
Qiao Chenan came to the small pavilion, saw this scene, and said with a smile: "Suzhen, why do you think you are a little more beautiful today?" picked up a plate of half-green and half-red grapes on the table and picked two.
Bai Suzhen's face turned a little redder when she heard this, her beautiful eyes turned white at him, and said, "You, the more you learn, the worse you get, why didn't you say such a thing when I first met you?" But there was no anger at all.
Qiao Chen'an came to her and said with a smile: "That's because we're closer, isn't that good?" Opened a grape, revealing the emerald flesh and handed it to her.
Bai Suzhen's cheeks were red, and after only a slight hesitation, she opened her mouth, leaned her head forward slightly, and bit it on the grape, but her red lips inevitably touched Qiao Chen'an's fingers, leaving a piece of warmth.
Qiao Chen'an felt the moist touch from between her fingers, and her fingers seemed to touch Bai Suzhen's soft fragrant tongue, and her heart couldn't help but move, feeling that her appearance at the moment was simply charming, and the two completely opposite temperaments of holiness and enchantment appeared on her body at the same time, which made people feel uncontrollable.
I couldn't help but take a deep breath, moved my eyes to the side, and asked, "Why don't you see Qing'er today?"
