Chapter Ninety-Eight: The Old Pharmacist

"Senior Brother Ding, what should we do?"

Ding Yang frowned and said, "Master will definitely be sent to the 'Life and Death Medicine Master', let's go and inquire...... Let's go back first and inform everyone. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ”

The two of them quickly returned to Qi Tiange and informed everyone.

When he woke up, he found that he was flying in the air, and he was caught in the armpit by a person, his whole body seemed to be sealed with the meridians, and his limbs could not move, this person is from the Dang clan, and the person he is holding under his left arm is his junior brother Tang Zijin, who is still unconscious.

"Who are you and where are you going to take us?"

"If you want to save your master, don't talk nonsense!" The masked man made a dull voice, which made the sixth senior brother feel a kind of deterrence, and he didn't dare to say more, but after a while, he felt that his body was thrown out, as if lying on a carriage running on a curve, at the same time, he faintly felt that the light suddenly dimmed in his eyes, and he couldn't help but sink in his heart, a little uneasy, after a long time, the light of the sky returned to the same as before, but then his body was light, and he suddenly swooped down, and the wind whirring in his ears immediately strengthened, and the whole world. Instead, it became quieter.

Looking down at the place where it came, a snowy peak. Comes to mind.

It turned out that he had bypassed that peak, and the sixth senior brother couldn't help but sigh secretly. "I'm afraid that in this world, only the people of the Dang Clan have such unfathomable light body skills. ”

"You two listen well, below is Huayang Village, there is a life and death medicine shop in the village, your master must have been sent there, if you want to save your master, play a play with me!"

"What kind of play?" the sixth senior brother was puzzled.

"Don't ask, just pretend to be dumb and don't say anything!"

The sixth senior brother was even more puzzled. "It's simple, I don't know why Your Excellency wants to save my master?"

"Don't talk nonsense, you just do it!"

"Yes...... Yes!" the sixth senior brother hurriedly responded.

"Let's go!" the man shouted, and the sixth senior brother stood up for a while, only to see a gray road under his eyes, wandering through the mountains and forests, leading to the town at his feet, among the towns. The houses are in good order, the streets are criss-crossed, there are green smoke owls everywhere, and pedestrians are sparse. There was not a single cart or horse, and the town, which was similar to the four directions, was divided into two by the north-south avenue. As it slowly descended, the wolf flag could be vaguely seen hanging high in front of the walled gate. There are four plates nailed to the cold door, and each one is written with four big characters of "Hua, Zhi, Yang, and Zai". The sixth senior brother couldn't help asking, "Was Huayang Village built by outsiders?"

"Well, how do you know?" the man asked curiously.

"Look at the four words written on it, don't you know? ”

The three of them settled, and the man in the cloak nodded and said, "Yes, this was built by a Taoist priest who fled from Changshan to the land more than three hundred years ago. ”

"Oh, more than three hundred years?" the sixth senior brother muttered to himself.

"See, there is a pharmacy on the east side of the gate of the village!"

"See!"

The man in the cloak suddenly took out a piece of rope from his arms, and with just a shake, he tied the sixth senior brother and Tang Zihan, who was still in a daze, took it in his hand, and walked quickly towards the village.

The people in the village, all of whom were white-eyed, saw the man in the cloak leading two foreigners in, and they all came over and gathered in front of the life and death medicine shop, but the door of the life and death medicine shop was closed, as if it was not open today.

The man in the cloak asked the crowd, "When did the pharmacy close?"

"It's been closed for several days, and it hasn't been opened, the front and back yards are locked tightly from the inside, no one dares to go in, the old pharmacist is a weirdo, no one dares to provoke. ”

When the sixth senior brother heard this, he hurriedly asked, "Then has my master been here?"

"Smack!"

As soon as the words fell, the sixth senior brother felt dizzy, his face was swollen and painful, and he heard the man in the cloak roar angrily, "Don't you have long ears?"

"Yes!"

"Has anyone been here today?" asked the cloaked man again.

"In the past few days, people have come every day, and today is no exception, there are still many people coming, just now the old drunkard Zhao blind on East Street, just carried away his grandson, alas, miserable, the Zhao family died seven people in a row, and now Zhao is left blind and a lonely old man. ”

The man in the cloak said angrily: "How can this be true, the medicine master of life and death is becoming more and more arrogant now, have you seen his ancestors and grandchildren out of the village!"

"No, no one saw them out of the village, they must still be alchemizing in the courtyard...... This is often the case. ”

The cloaked man exhaled, "Get out of the way, I'm going to smash this......"

"I can't help it!" An old man suddenly stepped forward to dissuade him: "His ancestors, in recent years, a little strange?"

"What's so strange?"

"Alas, you don't know, I see that you must have come from afar, seven or eight years, no, nine years, the old pharmacist has become very weird, in the past, there was a request, there must be a doctor, to later, hehe, it is difficult to please move, no matter who is sick, you have to come in person, and the minor illness does not see, let the guy take a little look, grab some medicine indiscriminately, if it is a serious illness, he will first diagnose, make sure that it can be cured, he will prescribe medicine, if he says that it is not cured, no matter how much money you take out, no matter how much you ask, he will not give a straw stick, and if he is sure that you are terminally ill, he will ask you if you want to have a short pain, or do you want to have a long pain?"

"What is the short and long pain?"

"Long-term pain means that he will never prescribe any medicine to you, let you seek medical treatment elsewhere, or wait for death at home; short-term pain is handed over to the grandson little pharmacist after the patient's consent, and the little pharmacist will prescribe a dose of death medicine, that is, poison, just go back and drink water, no pain or itching, sleep and die, this is short-term pain!"

"It's really unreasonable, the world's doctors are benevolent, saving the dead and helping the wounded, how can they be so ruthless, even if they are not treated, they will also be drugged to death. ”

"Hehe, no, what could be more strange?"

"What's the odd law?" asked the cloaked man quickly.

"Not long ago, a mother and daughter came to seek medical treatment, ouch ......" The old man said this, with a look of regret: "You don't know that the mother and daughter look like sisters, that water and spirit...... It's called pretty...... The pity is that the little girl suffers from a strange disease, and she goes to the doctor everywhere and says that it is an incurable death......"

"What did the old pharmacist say?"

The old pharmacist didn't say that it was a dead disease, but said that if it was treated, the girl would not be able to stop the medicine for the rest of her life, and she would not be as good as death, so the old pharmacist asked the mother and daughter how to treat the law, whether it was a long pain or a short pain, and the mother and daughter each wrote a note and handed it to the old pharmacist, and after the old pharmacist read it, he asked the mother and daughter to go back first and come back the next day. ”

"What is written?"

"At that time, we were very strange, so I asked the old pharmacist, who knew that the old pharmacist didn't say a word, put on a straight face, flicked his sleeves, early in the morning, let the guy close the door, the next morning, I saw the mother and daughter come as promised, but there has been no movement, until noon, I heard crying in the pharmacy, we all gathered around to see, only to see the girl holding her mother lying on the ground, has cried into tears......"

"The old medicine man killed the little girl's mother?"

"Exactly!"

"This ...... It's really unacceptable......"

"Yes, we all think so, but who dares to say that? do you know what the old pharmacist said?"

"How?"

"The old pharmacist walked to the door, and here he was, he stood here, put two notes on the pillar, and said, 'You all see clearly, it's not that my old pharmacist wants to kill her, it's just that God doesn't let her live, how can there be a mother in the world who is so ruthless, and wants to die of her own flesh and blood...... This is really incurable, so the old pharmacist does the right thing for heaven. It's not strange to you. ”

"It's ridiculous...... What does the note say?"

"The mother wrote the word 'short pain', but the daughter wrote 'long pain', it seems that the girl also has filial piety, afraid that she will die, and the mother can't think about it, so ah, it's better to die than to live, do some filial piety, but the mother must not want to watch her daughter suffer, right, the children are older, to the age of talking about marriage, when someone will want it, wouldn't it be more painful...... Alas, but the old pharmacist, he is hard-hearted, where will he understand...... Alas!"

Tang Zijin couldn't help but retort: "If you are replaced, what should you do?" (To be continued. )
