Chapter 0036: The Barbarian King's Strange Illness

"What method?" Li Yuankang listened with relish. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

He said that there was a venerable barbarian king in the West who lived in Qingchuan, and that this barbarian king had recently suffered from a strange disease, and that his witch doctor had been ordered to heal him with his heart, but he had exhausted all methods, whether it was herbs or charms, but he still couldn't cure them. In a fit of rage, the barbarian king cut off the limbs of the witch doctor and hung it in front of the palace to show the public, and at the same time issued a notice inviting famous doctors from all over the world to reward him heavily. In this way, the barbarian king found many doctors for treatment, including the Western barbarians, the Middle Earth, and other doctors. As a result, many of these so-called doctors are going for the honorarium, they are actually charlatans at all, and they have no skills. The barbarian king suffered a lot in vain, but he still could not cure his disease, and in a fit of rage, whether it was a real doctor, a fake doctor, or a quack, he threw them all into a huge stone mill and crushed him into meat sauce. Then the barbarian king increased the bounty tenfold and continued to seek medical treatment from famous doctors. ”

Zhou Shaobai asked, "Dad...... Although you know pharmacology, but you haven't studied medicine seriously, you won't go......"

Zhou Chaozong's face turned red: "This, I originally didn't want to go." Although it is said that people die for money, birds die for food, but some wealth can only be obtained by people who are hard-working. So when the man told me about it, I guessed what he meant, and I flatly refused. I said, I'm not Langzhong, I'm just a medicinal herb merchant, so many doctors can't cure the barbarian king's illness, and my superficial medical skills can only kill me in vain. But the man said that he had friends in the palace, so he knew all those doctors, and the medicinal materials they used were all common medicinal materials, and the medicinal materials I purchased, even in the Western Barbarians, were extremely rare, and few people used them. He felt that as long as he could prescribe the right medicine, with the potency of the rare medicinal materials we have now, it would not be difficult to alleviate or heal the Barbarian King's illness. ”

Zhou Shaobai asked, "Dad, you were actually persuaded like this?"

Aunt Zhou couldn't help but snort: "Yes, you father, you are in the eye of money, just for this money, you almost made me widowed!" As she spoke, she stretched out her finger and slammed it on Zhou Chaozong's head.

Zhou Chaozong sighed, rubbed his head, smiled embarrassedly, and then said: "Actually, I really didn't want to go at first, but he kept persuading me to drink, and after pouring too much yellow soup, I became bolder." I made a rough calculation, if I can get the bounty of the barbarian king, after dividing it in half with that person, plus the reward promised by Shuichuan Yuanwai, the remuneration of my business will be enough for me to win most of the medicinal herb business in Lianzhou City. This man died for the sake of wealth and death, and the wine was strong and instigated, and that night we went to uncover the notice drunk, and when we woke up, we had been brought into the palace. ”

Li Yuankang laughed: "It's interesting, it's really fun, what happened later?"

Zhou Chaozong sandwiched a piece of garlic white meat and threw it into his mouth to chew, took another sip, and praised: "Fragrant!

Zhou Shaobai hurriedly urged: "Dad, you said it!"

"This kid, what's the hurry, don't worry, your father is not dead, otherwise where did you come from. Zhou Chaozong continued, "As soon as I saw that I had already boarded the thief ship, I had no choice but to catch the ducks on the shelves and bite the bullet." So he followed the palace guard to meet the barbarian king, and the guard said that two more people had come, who claimed to be able to heal, and the barbarian king called us to come near and heal. I saw a man outside the palace howling and being thrown under the boulder by the guards, and being crushed into a mess of bloody meat sauce, and all of a sudden my heart trembled, and I thought to myself, no matter what, he must be cured, otherwise he will really die here. ”

"The barbarian king was tall, but he was scrawny, and there was no trace of anger, and if it weren't for the fact that his chest was still heaving, and he could speak, I would have thought he was a dead man. When I got closer, I asked the Barbarian King what was wrong with you. My guide translated my words, and the barbarian king shook his head, and said something, and the man said, "The barbarian king said, and told us to look behind him." ”

"The barbarian king was so weak that he couldn't move at all, so we both went around his back and looked at him, and our souls were scared away. ”

Zhou Chaozong narrowed his eyes, and his voice was low, the scene many years ago made him still feel cold in the back of his head: "I saw that the back of the barbarian king's head and back were cracked out of a blood-red gap, and on both sides of the crack, dense branches were densely covered with jagged sharp yellow teeth, long like a short knife, and short as an inch. The big mouth still opens and closes, and it is a demon's mouth......"

Aunt Zhou rubbed her temples and complained: "Boss, what you said is also infiltrating, I can afford goosebumps when I hear it." ”

Zhou Chaozong said: "Also, at this time, the guards outside filled a large basin of meat sauce and blood water that had just been crushed into Langzhong, and the two of them carried it over, and the big mouth opened and waited, and the two guards poured all the meat sauce and blood water into it...... Oops, I'm sick of that. ”

"Look at you! It's so disgusting, I can't eat this meal!" Aunt Zhou was so angry that she threw her chopsticks.

Zhou Chaozong hurriedly said: "I will only talk about curing the disease below, and nothing else." Seeing this scene, we were both frightened, and at this time, the guard spoke, saying that you are cured, and if you can't cure it, you can also use it to grind it and feed the strange sores on the barbarian king's body. At this point, I can only resign myself to fate. I checked the pulse of the barbarian king, and his pulse was extremely strange, obviously extremely weak, and his breath was like a gossamer, but there was a faint dark vein, and it was very strong. I really didn't have any way to do it, I never thought of this strange disease, let alone diagnose and treat it. The guide said, no matter what, first open a plan to drag, you can't die now, as long as you live, find a way to find a chance to escape. He also said that he had acquaintances in the palace and might be able to help. I thought about it, so I will prescribe a prescription and drag it out, whether the medicine is effective or not, I have to take a few pairs of it. So according to the prescription for treating sores in medicine, I added some purchased strange medicinal materials and made up a new recipe. The barbarian king had already ordered someone to move my medicinal herbs to the palace, and wherever I decocted the medicine and prescribed prescriptions, there were guards following me, and it was impossible to escape. ”

"In this way, the barbarian king took a lot of our medicines, and of course, there was no sign of improvement. During this period, not only us, but also other doctors were also treating him, and people were crushed and eaten every day. I felt like I was dead every day, watching those people being crushed, and I always felt that it would be my turn next. The guide's friend also said that this was an extraordinary time, and he didn't dare to anger the barbarian king, otherwise it was estimated that even he would be crushed. No one can count on it, and we are completely desperate. ”

"Worrying is going to happen. Early that morning, we were escorted to the atrium by the guards, and the guards muttered, and the guide cried, and he did not need to translate, and I knew that the time of death had come. The barbarian king lost patience with us and wanted to crush and eat us, and by the way, the medicinal herbs I purchased were also piled up there, and the posture was to burn them with a fire. ”

Zhou Chaozong sighed, shook his head and said: "At that time, I really regretted it, I suffered so much, and finally collected all the medicinal materials, as long as I went back in time, I could make a steady profit, but for the bounty of the barbarian king, it was really a death for money." Greed really can't be had, and people are more valuable than contentment. At that time, I thought that if I could save the day this time, I must do more good deeds and accumulate more virtues. ”

Li Yuankang nodded: "No wonder Uncle Zhou still asked his men to spread mung bean soup outside the city gate, but there was such a reason." ”
