Chapter 234: Luojia Mountain Epidemic (Happy 2018, everyone!)
γChinese Networkγ, to provide you with wonderful reading.
It turned out that Li Gongfu was also afraid of his wife, Xu Jiaorong opened his mouth slightly, and he hurriedly explained.
Xu Jiaorong smiled slightly: "Okay, people are guests from afar, how can you come up and raise your eyebrows and lose your hospitality." β
Li Gongfu smiled and nodded: "Yes, yes, what my wife said is reasonable." β
Wu Ming smiled secretly in his heart, it seems that women are in charge of this family, Xu Xian and Li Gongfu are a miracle doctor and a chief catcher, so they still have to listen to Xu Jiaorong obediently.
Xu Xian saw the awkward atmosphere, and hurriedly spoke: "Brother-in-law, Wu Gongzi has come from afar, I want to entertain him to eat at home tonight, what do you think." β
Li Gongfu was stunned for a moment, and immediately spoke: "Welcome, welcome, I'll go to the cellar and get a jar of wine, just drink a few glasses to warm up!"
Xu Jiaorong glared at Li Gongfu: "You and Hanwen go to the front and close the shop, let's have dinner." β
Li Gongfu and Xu Xian walked to the front hall in response, leaving only Wu Ming and Xu Jiaorong sitting in the living room.
Xu Jiaorong pushed both of them out, and then looked at Wu Ming and smiled: "Where is Gongzi Wu?"
Wu Ming nodded and replied: "I was born in Sichuan and Shu, and I traveled far here." β
Xu Jiaorong sighed and continued: "Hanwen is kind-hearted, but he knows very little about the sinister world. Wu Gongzi probably heard him say about the white girl, I don't know what you think about this matter. β
Wu Ming was slightly surprised, he couldn't talk too much at this time, otherwise it would only backfire.
"I haven't met Miss Bai, but Dr. Xu has a lot of appreciation for her between his words. My Fair Lady and Gentleman are good, it is a normal thing. β
Xu Jiaorong shook her head and continued: "Gongzi doesn't know, Wushi Mountain, where the White Mansion is located, was a barren mountain a few years ago, and I don't know when such a magnificent mansion was built. We have found several matchmakers in a row, but they are not allowed to enter, I am afraid that there is evil and chaos on Wushi Mountain. β
"That white girl is so mysterious and unpredictable that even my husband can't find out her details. Our Xu family only has Hanwen, a male, how can I rest assured that he will be handed over to the white girl of unknown origin. β
Wu Ming was silent, Xu Jiaorong was telling the truth, but Xu Xian was desperate to marry a snake!
Xu Jiaorong looked at Wu Ming: "I see that Gongzi, you and Hanwen are quite close, so I can only pull down my face and beg Gongzi to persuade Hanwen more, so that he can dispel this idea as soon as possible." β
"I did my best. β
Wu Ming was amused in his heart, this pair of sisters and brothers couldn't convince each other, and they all used themselves as lobbyists.
Xu Jiaorong stood up: "Wu Gongzi is here for a while, and I'll go and prepare dinner." β
Soon after, Xu Xian and Li Gongfu came back from closing, Xu Jiaorong also prepared dinner, and the family and Wu Ming came to the dining room to sit down.
The age of the White Snake world is similar to that of the Tang Dynasty, and the diet is relatively simple, mainly steamed pasta with mutton, and the seasoning is mainly pepper and salt.
This meal was steamed cakes with pepper mutton soup, although there were no chili peppers, but Wu Ming ate it with relish.
(The history of Fahai does have its own people, is a famous monk in the Tang Dynasty, once presided over the repair of Jinshan Temple, the age of the White Snake roughly refers to the existence of Fahai, set in the Tang Dynasty.) οΌ
Xu Jiaorong put the wine jug into a basin of hot water to soak it warm, and then poured wine for the three of them in turn.
"In winter, it is wet and cold, and drinking some wine can warm up the body and activate the blood. β
Wu Ming took a few sips symbolically, Xu Xian had been drunk before, and he didn't dare to drink again, only Li Gongfu drank one cup after another, and he was happy to drink by himself.
After drinking six or seven cups in a row, Li Gongfu's face was flushed, and he stammered a little when he spoke: "Hanwen, don't worry about that white girl anymore." The origin of the Bai family is unknown, and they suddenly built such a large house, and they are still suspicious on the mountain. In my experience, most of them are Jiangyang thieves who wash their hands of gold. β
Xu Xian immediately retorted: "Brother-in-law, I once crossed the West Lake with the white girl, she is gentle and generous, you must not slander her like this!"
Li Gongfu glared: "You kid, you can't be lost by her, why don't you listen to me!"
Xu Xian wanted to refute, but Xu Jiaorong raised his hand to stop: "Okay, don't fight anymore, let the guests laugh." β
The two stopped arguing, and Xu Jiaorong continued: "Hanwen, your brother-in-law said that there have been rogues outside Zhenjiang Mansion recently, robbing people of money, so don't go out recently, and see a doctor in the security hall with peace of mind." β
"Ahββ!h
Xu Xian screamed, a depressed look on his face, and then he stretched out his foot and kicked Wu Ming under the table.
Wu Ming understood, coughed and said: "Actually, I came to ask Dr. Wu to see a patient this time, I don't know if Mrs. can agree." β
Xu Xian's face was overjoyed: "It is my duty to cure diseases and save people, so naturally I want to go!"
"No way!"
Li Gongfu on the side suddenly spoke: "Han Wenming Day is going to go with me to Luojia Mountain in the southwest." β
Xu Xian suddenly sighed, looking displeased: "Brother-in-law, why do you suddenly want to go to Luojia Mountain?"
Xu Jiaorong on the side also frowned: "Luojia Mountain is more than 100 miles away from Zhenjiang Mansion, and it will take at least two days to come and go, so if there is anything important, you have to go." β
Li Gongfu's face was flushed, and he smacked his lips: "I was going to talk about it tomorrow morning, but in a village under Luojia Mountain, many people suddenly fell ill in the past two days, and it is said that the locals saw monsters on the mountain, and the village chief sent someone to Zhenjiang Mansion to ask for help, and the lord sent me to take someone to take a look." β
Xu Xian was taken aback: "How many people are sick? What are the symptoms?"
Li Gongfu shook his head: "I'm not a doctor, where can I figure this out, that's why I want to take you with me tomorrow!"
Xu Xian immediately put down his chopsticks: "Saving people is like fighting a fire, we can't delay for a moment, we still rushed to Luojia Mountain overnight, so as not to delay the illness of the villagers." β
Xu Jiaorong was shocked on the side: "Gongfu, you said that the locals saw monsters on the mountain, what's going on?"
After taking the wine glass and drinking it all, Li Gongfu looked up at the three people in front of him: "According to the person who came to deliver the letter, there was a child in their village who got lost in the mountains and encountered a huge white snake several feet long in the mountains. β
Wu Ming was taken aback, could it be Bai Suzhen?
She wasn't at home, what was she doing in the mountains of Lorga?
Xu Xian looked puzzled: "White Snake, what's wrong with White Snake?"
Li Gongfu stretched out his hand to pat Xu Xian: "You wood, how can an ordinary snake grow to several zhang long!, and it is already winter, and it stands to reason that the snake in the wild should have hibernated, this giant snake is walking through the mountains at this time, there must be something different!"
"Even if it's a demon, but he's in the mountains, and I'm going to treat the villagers, what does it have to do with it. Xu Xian was still puzzled.
Li Gongfu sighed: "That village is at the foot of Luojia Mountain, although the danger is not great, but just in case, I will take a dozen catchers tomorrow before setting off, so as to keep you safe." β
Wu Ming coughed lightly and said leisurely: "If Doctor Xu goes to Luojia Mountain, let's go with him." Although I don't know how to heal, I still want to do my part for the villagers' illness. β
Since Bai Suzhen appeared in Luojia Mountain, Wu Ming naturally didn't want to miss it. For mobile phone users, please browse M. Reading for a better reading experience.
