Chapter 25: The Panther and the Boy (15)
Liu Kongqing understood the kitten's comfort to him, and he only felt how fortunate he was to meet such a magical little friend.
He raised Changsheng up and looked at each other, "You must not be an ordinary kitten, I heard the nurse say when I was a child, there will be fox fairies and snake fairies to seal the mana to go down to the mortal tribulations."
Now that you have no mana, and you have to find a mortal to live with, then you might as well go home with me!"
Phoenix:......
Comrade nurse of the little baffle child, what kind of supernatural story did you tell this child?
Or are the goblins of your world really so miserable?
And the little kids, do you know what it means to "live"?
Changsheng has a "disgusting face": child, brain supplement is also a disease, eat two walnuts to make up!
Seeing that Changsheng didn't react, Liu Kongqing said anxiously: "I can raise you, although I am very poor now, I know many herbs."
In the beginning of spring, you can go into the mountains to collect medicines, and the herbs can be exchanged for money, and I will buy you fish to eat. Really, not kidding you. ”
In two lifetimes, this is the first man to say "I can support you" to Changsheng, eh, boy.
Although she is a little young, the meaning of these words is not the same as Changsheng's understanding, of course, Changsheng doesn't have any thoughts about a little child, but this does not prevent her from being proud.
Sure enough, she hopes that the immortals will be loved by everyone, and she can eat anywhere.
Looking at the child's starry eyes and expectant expression, Changsheng really couldn't bear to refuse.
However, if you don't refuse, you can't do it, she's not a real cat, let alone a cat fairy.
She wanted to eat, drink and be merry in the human world, but she wasn't ready to find herself a shovel officer.
Therefore, Changsheng pretended not to understand, as if he was not comfortable being held, struggled a few times, and jumped off the child.
But she didn't leave, she just squatted and watched the child.
But apparently this child who made her look the other way had a sensitive heart, or a keen intuition.
He actually understood the meaning of Changsheng's expression again - refusal.
The disappointed little Zhengtai blinked with a pair of big watery eyes, and if he was fatter, it would be even cuter.
Stop, stop, no matter how cute she is, it's useless, she's a "cat" who doesn't have feelings.
Changsheng lowered his head and pulled his tail with his paws, as if it was the first time he had seen such a shiny and slippery fur.
Xiao Zhengtai pouted in disappointment and let out an "oh".
But soon he rekindled his fighting spirit, as if the nurse said that those demon fairies like learned and good-looking young men.
Although he knew a lot of words and read a lot of books, he was not very learned, and he would have to be a young man in another three or four years.
It must be like this, the cat fairy won't go home with him.
But it doesn't matter, he'll study hard and grow up.
If you let Changsheng know that the little fart child is so enlightened by himself, he will definitely want to pull out the nurse who "mistook people's children" out and serve him for punishment, Lao Tzu believes in your evil.
......
Liu Kongqing's grandfather is a doctor, and he is not an ordinary doctor. In addition, when Liu Kongqing was just one year old, his father and mother were both killed because of bandits, so Liu Kongqing grew up on his grandfather's legs and in the pharmacy.
At the age of five, he began to learn to diagnose the pulse, and at the age of six, he followed his grandfather to work in the countryside when he was in a free clinic.
Although his family suffered a disaster when he was eight years old, he had to dismiss his servants and grandfather and return to the small mountain village where his grandfather was born, but he did not put down his medical skills.
On the contrary, because his grandfather knew that his life was short, he was even more strict with Liu Kongqing.
Although doctors do not treat themselves, it is not difficult to diagnose their own pulse and check their leg injuries.
The leg is a bone crack, although it still has to be tied to a splint, but there is no need to find someone to connect the bone, which is a blessing in misfortune.
There is a slight wind chill, but fortunately there is no fever yet, and you need to drink more water and sweat well when you go home.
He can't get sick, the medicinal materials at home have long been used up when his grandfather is sick, and he has no money to buy medicine.
Although he had followed his grandfather to the countryside for free medical treatment before, it was not until he moved to the village that he completely understood that the poor could not afford to be sick.
The broken leg was fixed with a few branches and hemp rope, and a thick branch was cut with a firewood knife as a crutch, and Liu Kongqing carried the empty basket down the mountain with difficulty.
Even if he was lucky, he didn't encounter a big beast when he went up the mountain, and when he went down the mountain, he was protected by Changsheng on the side, and even if there was a wild boar, she had already been driven away by her divine sense.
Although it is really difficult to walk on one leg, let alone go down the mountain, there is no danger except for being tired and hungry.
It took three hours to walk for an hour, and when the sun was in the sky, we finally reached the foot of the mountain.
The curling smoke has come into view, and with the power of Changsheng's ears, I can even hear the sound of parents calling their children to eat and neighbors chatting.
With the rooster crowing and the dog barking, it is really a picture of life.
It's like going to my grandmother's house for summer vacation when I was a young child.
It's a pity that she is looking forward to immortality, and she can't integrate into such a mortal life.
At this time, Changsheng already knew that the child's surname was Liu, and his name was Kongqing.
Empty blue is a kind of malachite, which can be used as medicine, mainly to treat bright eyes, to remove pannus, and to sharpen the knots. Its precious ones can be used as gemstones.
Liu Kongqing's parents died when he was a child, and he lived with his grandparents.
His grandfather used to be the imperial physician in King Xia's palace, but two years ago he was involved in a fight between the concubines of King Xia's palace and was framed.
Although he was exempted from capital punishment by this generation of Xia kings because of his fame in the world and the treatment of the previous generation of Xia kings, he was removed from the position of imperial physician and expelled from the palace.
And the king of Xia decreed that because of his "medical ethics", he was not allowed to practice medicine within the scope of the Xia Kingdom.
There is a saying that "the wall falls down and everyone pushes it".
Most of Liu Kongqing's grandfather's apprentices and grandchildren have severed relations with him.
There is no severance of relations, and because King Xia doesn't like it, he only dares to sneak around.
But even if the three members of the Liu family don't come out, there are often shameless people who come to the door to provoke.
Liu Kongqing's grandparents are all old, where can they endure such torture and insults.
Within half a year, his grandmother died of illness.
It was precisely because of this incident that his grandfather took him back to the mountain village where Gaozu was born.
The news here is closed, and every village is a relative of the Liu family, at least they will not be bullied.
But Grandpa Liu has practiced medicine all his life, and he was actually deprived of his medical qualifications when he was old and old, so he was naturally depressed.
In addition, he is getting older, and there is a period of continuous travel and three meals, which causes Grandpa Liu's body to decay rapidly.
barely lasted a year and a half, but he died a month ago, and he didn't close his eyes when he died.
After experiencing the warmth and coldness of human affection, Liu Kongqing has become a real loner.
That's why he caught Changsheng with such a little warmth, and he was reluctant to let go.
But Changsheng was not ready to stay.
"Meow!"
Screaming at Liu Kongqing, Changsheng turned his head and left without hesitation, disappearing behind the bushes in the blink of an eye, never to be seen again.
Liu Kongqing held the crutches hard, the green tendons on his hands were clearly visible, suppressed the weakness in his heart, blinked vigorously, turned around and walked towards the village.
Grandpa said that even if he is a loved one, he can't always accompany him, he always has to get used to being alone, and bravely face the tribulations of life.
He can't cry, he's ten years old, it's too embarrassing to cry, he has to hurry home and boil water, if the wind and cold are serious, it's bad.
So Liu Kongqing, who turned to leave, didn't see it, and just as he turned around, a small figure came out of the bushes silently.
