Chapter 56: One Life for One Life
At night in Hesse, the four fields are empty, and it is difficult to find people.
In the depths of a quiet bamboo forest, there is a small bamboo hut.
The bamboo hut is only a few small rooms, only occupies a very small open space in the bamboo forest, and the bamboo fence in front of the bamboo hut extends outward, enclosing a yard that is more than ten zhang long and wide, but it seems very large.
There are some flowers and plants planted in the yard, but because it is winter, everything is withered, and only one Hanmei is still standing proudly.
There are several plum blossoms, which are extremely beautiful, do not disappear in winter, and bloom well.
And under the pretty cold plum tree, a stone tablet stood abruptly, and behind the stone tablet, there was a small earthen bag.
It was a tomb.
It is the grave of the granddaughter of the old miracle doctor, the Qingdai girl.
That year, she hanged herself on the beam of the Rongguo Mansion, and when she died, her tongue was an inch longer, her neck was three points longer, one embroidered shoe was on her foot, and one embroidered shoe fell into the bed.
And the culprit who killed her was Zhen Pu.
At that time, he was unrepentant, and in the face of the old miracle doctor who questioned him sharply, he just called the people in the house, set him away, and drove him away.
And he himself went back to the house, and fell asleep.
Because the Qingdai girl's temperament was too hot, it took him a lot of effort to finally succeed.
When the prosperity is over, people are tired and sleepy.
At that time, Zhen Pu was high and invincible, and he didn't believe that he would end up today, let alone that one day, because of the illness of the jade hairpin girl, he would kneel down in front of the bamboo house of the old divine doctor, kneel down in front of the grave of the Qingdai girl, and confess to their grandfather and grandson for help.
"Doctor Wu, Zhen Pu came to ask for medicine!"
Zhen Pu pounced, knelt on his knees, straightened up, and shouted loudly into the bamboo house.
It was late at night, Doctor Wu had already fallen asleep, and it was dark and dim in the bamboo house.
"Doctor Wu, Zhen Pu came to ask for medicine!"
Zhen Pu bowed his straight body, lowered his head, and knocked heavily towards the bamboo house.
This knock smashed his head a little dizzy.
But Zhen Pu didn't stop there, after one ring, then another, bang, bang, one after another.
"Doctor Wu, Zhen Pu came to ask for medicine!"
"Doctor Wu, Zhen Pu came to ask for medicine!"
β......β
One after another, the shouts finally woke up the people in the bamboo house.
The originally dark bamboo hut finally lit up with a glimmer of light.
The dim candlelight shines through the windowsill of the bamboo hut, illuminating the scene outside the bamboo hut.
A bluestone path appeared, from the stone steps of the door of the bamboo house, extending outward until the door of the bamboo fence gate, where Zhen Pu knelt.
This bluestone path is like the hope of the jade hairpin girl.
But at this moment, what came out of the bamboo hut was not the elderly Doctor Wu, but a young doctor in Tsing Yi who was only about ten years old.
He pushed open the door, carried a lantern, walked out of the house, and walked along the bluestone path to Zhen Pu.
He put the lantern in front of Zhen Pu, saw his face clearly, and saw that it was a boy with clear eyebrows, not a murderer and a bully, so he relaxed a little.
He persuaded: "This son, my master has already fallen asleep, his old man is too old to withstand the toss, if you want to ask for medicine, come back tomorrow when it is dawn! Don't shout again, Master has insomnia all day, and it was not easy to fall asleep." β
Zhen Pu heard the words of this little doctor boy in Tsing Yi, but he didn't stop kowtowing, nor did he stop shouting in his mouth.
"Doctor Wu, Zhen Pu came to ask for medicine!"
His head had been kowtowed to the point of bleeding, and the voice in his mouth was getting more and more hoarse.
The little doctor boy in Tsing Yi hurriedly helped him up so that he wouldn't shout here.
But apparently, he stopped it too late.
I don't know when, in the bamboo hut, a white-haired old man has come out.
Doctor Wu was old, behind his ears, he didn't hear what the person was shouting, he was also dizzy, and now the sky was dark, and he couldn't see the face of the person kneeling in front of the door, he only knew that there was a person outside the house who was shouting in a hurry.
This kind of late-night door-to-door must be someone in the family who has some emergency and comes to ask for medicine.
Doctor Wu has been hanging pots to help the world all his life, saving countless people, and has encountered this situation many times.
Save a life, win a seventh-level floating slaughter.
Although he is old, a doctor's benevolence is still hot, and he will not die without help.
"Cinnamon, you go and bring my medicine box, and then bring my donkey, let's go quickly." β
The little doctor boy in Tsing Yi named Cinnamon listened to Doctor Wu's words and hurriedly ran into the house.
But instead of going to get the medicine box, he went to get a thick coat, stood on tiptoe, and put it on Doctor Wu.
"Master, your health has been bad, don't go tonight, it's not too late to go tomorrow!"
"You bad bastard, how did the teacher teach you, the heart of the doctor's parents, how can that emergency be delayed? Go quickly, if the patient's treatment is delayed, what is good or bad for the patient, I will sweep you out of the house!"
"Ahemβahemβ"
Doctor Wu couldn't help coughing twice because of the heavy exposure in the middle of the night and because of the urgency of his words.
"Yes, Master!"
Cinnamon did not dare to disobey the master's orders, and with some helplessness and some worry, she went to the house to get the medicine box and handed it to the master, and then went to the donkey shed and brought the skinny donkey to the master.
It's just that when he brought the donkey over, his master's face changed drastically for some reason.
At some point, the master had already stood not far from the man who was asking for medicine.
He looked at the man who was asking for medicine in a daze, his whole body trembling, his face pale, and shaking.
Cinnamon didn't know that Doctor Wu looked like this, because he was angry, he just thought that he was not in good health, and he was suffering from the wind and cold, and his body was unwell, which was why he looked like this.
He hurriedly stepped forward and held him up.
"Division...... Master, what's wrong with you, you're not well, let's go back to the house!"
But as soon as his hand touched Divine Doctor Wu's hand, he opened it.
Doctor Wu's face was hideous, and there seemed to be infinite anger in his eyes, Cinnamon had followed the master for more than five years, and he had never seen him like this.
Divine Doctor Wu didn't look at Cinnamon Pi, but at Zhen Pu, who was kneeling on the ground.
He said coldly: "What are you doing here? Don't you think it's enough to harm my family's Qingdai? She is already dead, and in that grave, don't you still want to dig her out?"
Zhen Pu knows that her sins are deep and unforgivable, but Miss Jade has nothing to do with his sins, she is an innocent person, and she should not die of it.
"Doctor Wu, Zhen Pu came to ask for medicine!"
Zhen Pu said, and kowtowed heavily to Doctor Wu.
"Hehe, begging for medicine? What, God finally opened his eyes, and he was going to accept you little bastard! It's too late for me to be happy if you die, you want me to save you, there is no door!"
Doctor Wu is an elegant healer on weekdays, and he doesn't have any vulgar actions, but today, he snorted and quenched Zhen Pu's phlegm.
If it weren't for the fact that he was old and his body bones couldn't withstand the toss, he was afraid that he would kick Zhen Pu's feet again to vent his hatred.
Zhen Pu was spit out by him, but he didn't dare to wipe it.
He bowed down, knocked again, and said: "Zhen Pu knows that he deserves to die for his sins, and he can't be forgiven by you, but tonight, Zhen Pu is not asking for medicine for himself, there is really a girl who is suffering from death, and the medicine is difficult to treat, only Doctor Wu can save it, and I also ask Doctor Wu to be merciful and save the innocent girl." β
"Innocent? is he your confidante, Zhen Gongzi?
Divine Doctor Wu, supported by the little doctor boy Cinnamon in Tsing Yi, stood firmly, and the anger on his face was suffocated.
Faced with the enemy who killed his granddaughter, he had long lost the benevolence of a doctor, and some were only resentment and anger.
"Zhen Pu and her, there is no name, let alone half of the skin, that woman, but she was kind-hearted and took her in, and she has nothing to do with her, and she also asked Doctor Wu to show mercy and save that girl!"
"I save her, then who will save my granddaughter Qingdai, you say, who will save my granddaughter? She was about to get married back then, you little brute know? But you hurt her!"
Doctor Wu looked at Zhen Pu, who was kneeling on the ground, and when he thought of his granddaughter Qingdai, he couldn't control his emotions and trembled violently.
"Please ask Doctor Wu to save that girl. β
Zhen Pu raised his head, his gaze was resolute, and there was a determined look in his eyes.
He said: "Zhen Pu, may one life be exchanged for one life!"
As he spoke, he bowed down again, like the most devout believer in the world.
Divine Doctor Wu listened to his words, but he was stunned, and his face was extremely strange.
He would never believe that the arrogant and domineering Prince Zhen Pu of the Rongguo Mansion would be willing to lose his life for a woman.
This greedy for life and afraid of death, but he once used his own woman as a shield, and he was a complete scum.
He never has the consciousness of exchanging his life for his life!
Zhen Pu looked at Divine Doctor Wu's strange expression and knew that he had some suspicions, but he still had a firm gaze and never changed his words.
"Zhen Pu, may I exchange one life for another!"
