"Linglongβ"
"Be careful not to jump on a big rock and beware of falling into the stream. β
The sound of the flowing water sounded in the mountain stream, the clear water was swinging, a pair of delicate little hands held the clear spring and was about to drink, suddenly a few drops of cool water rushed over, poured on the girl's face, and then, the water held in the palm of the hand also poured according to the person opposite.
Two distinct female voices frolicked by the stream, one tall and one short, chasing each other, and then ran onto the rope bridge and towards the other side of the mountain road. Far away, in the mountains, they could still be heard laughing like silver bells.
The mist in the mountain stream gradually rose to the entire mountainside, like a white ribbon tied.
The spring climate is humid and warm, and when the sun rises, the water vapor slowly rises, and there are many dangers when you walk up the mountain trails. However, for those who grow up in the mountains, even with their eyes closed, they can easily walk through the mountain paths. The two maidens laughed and played as they cut through the mist and turned a corner at a fork in the mountain.
Walking along the path under a fluttering curtain of water, a paradise-like scenery appeared in front of them at the exit, surrounded and clustered by four mountains, and a muddy path stretched straight under their feet, terraced fields, vegetable gardens and fruit trees, and above the terraced fields at the end, was a small fenced village, probably in about a dozen households.
In the distance, there was an old man working in the field who greeted the two little girls, "Linglong and Youqing, what are you doing here?" There seems to be a guest at home, Doctor Yu is looking for you everywhere, go back and have a look." β
Speaking of this miracle doctor, the people here are very respectful, and the two girls are also very proud, after all, their grandfather. Back in front of the small building in the village, with two braids, the younger girl handed the two medicine baskets to the middle-aged man who was drying the medicine, "Daddy, who is here at home, I see horseshoe prints on the ground." β
Another girl who was a little older helped sort out the herbs, suddenly got up and ran towards the wooden building, and said with a smile: "Sister Fang must be here." β
"Wait for meβ"
The remaining girl hurriedly threw away the herbs she had just picked in her hand, hurriedly followed, and turned back to the man behind her with a naughty smile, "Daddy, my sister and I will come to help later." β
After speaking, he trotted up to the wooden building with two small pigtails.
As soon as I entered, I saw a seventeen or eighteen-year-old woman standing in the room, dressed in a big red silk dress, with a brown cloak on her shoulders, a leather whip rolled around her waist, her hair neatly coiled in a bun on her head, her cheeks were white and ruddy, and her eyes were slightly starry. The woman, who was still a little worried, couldn't help but smile when she saw the two girls who broke in, and rubbed their heads respectively.
The tone was soft, with a funny taste, and said, "I haven't seen you for half a year, but Linglong and Youqing have grown a lot taller." Come, my sister here will bring you a lot of pastries, both of you have them, don't fight, you know?"
"Uh-huh. Yu Linglong, who took her gift, nodded again and again, staring at the box outside greedily, but was reluctant to open it.
Yu Youqing, who was a little older, was much more sensible, put the box with snacks aside, and accompanied the woman in red to talk, and not long after, the curtain in the back room was opened, and an old man came out with a young man, he saw the two girls come back, showing a kind smile, and then sat back in front of the dilapidated desk, writing prescriptions.
"Grandpa Yu, is Fang Jie's injury okay?" the woman took two steps forward and asked in a soft tone, but her eyes were fiercely glancing at the young man.
The young man was burly and tall, with eagle eyebrows and eyes, handsome and masculine, and at this time, he was looked at by the woman with a weak heart, and he scratched his hair embarrassedly. Yu Chongzhi next to him was writing a prescription, and when he heard the woman's question, he came back to his senses and said with a smile: "The old man is old and a little dull, so the saint doesn't want to laugh." β
"What a holy woman, those are all fooling those sectarians outside, you should always call her Ruyi. The young man named Fang Jie sat down across the desk with a big grin, grabbed the pastries in the snack box casually, and ate a piece in two or three clicks, and when he wanted to take it, he saw Yu Linglong standing crisply in front of him with his cheeks bulging, his eyes instantly turned red, and he lacked mist. He couldn't help but be stunned, only to know that he had eaten the little girl's things, and he withdrew his hand stupidly.
The woman in red walked over and comforted Xiao Linglong, then turned around, kicked Fang Jie's leg, and in pain, he shouted, "It hurts, cousin, don't kick." β
At this time, Xiao Linglong burst into tears and laughed, and when everyone saw her laughing, her face suddenly turned red, and she ran out of the door with a small face. The old man smiled: "This girl is also beginning to know that she is ashamed, so let Ru laugh." Just now, the old man checked Fang Jie's pulse, and there was nothing serious, but within this month, avoid sexual intercourse, avoid using force, if the meridians are contusion and damaged, it is not enough to take one or two pairs of medicine. β
"Look, I'll just say it's okay, you're making a big fuss. β
Fang Ruyi stared at him fiercely and scolded coquettishly, "You still said, be careful that I beat you." β
"You can't beat me!" Fang Jie seemed to be tall and mighty, but at this time he acted like a child who didn't grow up, facing his cousin who was two or three years older than him, and his naughty character was undoubtedly exposed.
After a while, it was almost noon, and the two stayed at Doctor Yu's house for lunch, and after seeing the sky, they were ready to leave the mountain. At the entrance of the valley, I saw two horses, one with a long beard and white face, a slender figure, and a weak appearance, and the other with a strong figure and a steel knife at his waist, which looked like a guard.
When Yu Chongzhi saw someone coming, he first frowned, then walked over, hugged his fists and said, "It turned out to be Shen Zhifu in person, I don't know what happened to me at this time." β
The man dismounted, handed the reins to the guard, hurried over and held Yu Chongzhi's hand with both hands, and immediately knelt down at him, crying, "Brother, please save me." β
"Thisβ"
Seeing him crying bitterly, Yu Chongzhi was a little dazed, took his pulse with his hand, and said suspiciously: "Shen Zhifu's pulse is flat and stable, not like a disease." β
The two Fang Ruyi sisters and brothers, who were just about to leave, saw this scene, and they were not in a hurry to leave, curious to see what the prefect would say. Yu Chongzhi helped him up, "What is the matter with the prefect, he cries as soon as he comes, and he always has to explain the reason." β
Shen Shou wiped a handful of tears, and saw that there were two young people, who only thought that they were Jianghu rangers who came to seek a doctor, so he didn't feel at ease, and asked, "Is there a treasure in the hands of the old brother, called the prescription of Duyang Huayusan?"
"There's... There is.... It was just written by the old man a while ago, but if it is a treasure, it is serious. Yu Chongzhi waved his hand, modestly for a moment, and then wondered: "Could it be that the old man's prescription has something to do with the prefect?"
Shen Shou whispered: "That's the case, a big man above, I don't know where I heard that my brother has a prescription here, and I know that this mansion has some friendship with you, so he sent me to ask, if he gives them the prescription, he says that the conditions are casual, but if he can't get it, this mansion is not only unsafe, I'm afraid even his life will be lost." β
"Alas, as a doctor, if you can save someone's life, send a prescription and send it. It's gone, the old man rewrites a copy, the prefect waits, and the old man will go and get it. β
Yu Chongzhi arched his hand and turned around and returned to the wooden building. After a while, he came out again, holding a prescription list in his hand, and was about to hand it to the other party. Unexpectedly, Fang Ruyi interjected and came in to stop, "Grandpa Yu, don't worry." β
She unfolded the prescription and looked at it, then frowned, "It's a very ordinary prescription." β
"It's a very ordinary prescription, and the above medicines, although it is a little difficult to find, are only effective for strengthening the body and repairing wounds. Yu Chongzhi obviously knew the properties of the prescriptions he prescribed.
"That's not right-" Fang Ruyi turned his head to look at the prefect, and his voice was crisp, "If it's so ordinary, you still need to bother your prefect to come here?" You tell this girl, what is the adult's name, otherwise the whip will serve." β
"You dare!"
The guards brought by the prefect drew their swords and came over to protect Shen Shou.
Seeing that the prescription that was about to arrive was intercepted halfway, Shen Shou was anxious, and said uncontrollably: "Little girl, that is what the Admiral of Dongchang asked for, if you don't give it, he said that he will leave the chicken and dog killed here." β
"--Then let him kill him!"
Fang Jie took a Fang Tian painting halberd from his horse, and the cold light flashed, and Shen Shou immediately covered his ears and screamed, his ears suddenly fell to the ground, and shouted: "And you, a dog official, go back quickly, and call the people from Dongchang to come and send them to death." β
Shen Shou screamed miserably, retreating, blood-stained fingers pointing at them, "You guys..... You guys.... It's over.... Divine Doctor..... That East Factory.... Alas!"
Immediately, he was drawn on his horse by the guards, and the two galloped away at great speed.
The sun was setting in the west, and the shadows slowly covered half of the valley.
Wandering, like a dark cloud.
