Chapter Seventy-Nine: Rescue
A seemingly random investigation has received unexpected results, and the three of them can be regarded as old rivers and lakes, although they were surprised in their hearts, they did not show it, but they worked harder to diagnose and treat, and Xiaoxiao even drew out some of Fang Xiang's blood to be studied.
They worked tirelessly until the evening, when they ate the supper prepared by the woman. During the banquet, Yun and Xiao Xiao seemed to pull at random, and probed Fang Zhongtian's information without a trace. The old woman now regarded them as a lifesaver, and her precautionary heart was gone, and she knew everything about the two of them.
It turned out that this Fang Zhongtian was indeed the Fang Zhongtian of Fangjiazhai they were looking for, and the reason why their family appeared here was more than 20 years ago.
At that time, Fang Zhongtian was in his twenties, his blood was strong, his nature was very out-of-tant, he didn't follow the rules very much, and he often wandered around. One day, he inadvertently saved Fang Li, who was still a girl at the time, under the kiss of a wolf. The next plot is a bit old-fashioned, it is nothing more than that the two have been in love for a long time, so that they have a private life, but they are not accepted by the family, and then they eloped resolutely, and did not return to Fangjiazhai until their son Fang Xiang was born. The clan saw that the raw rice had been cooked into mature rice, and there was no way but to agree in the end, and the two lived a happy life as a man ploughing and a woman weaving.
But when Fang Xiang was five years old, his peaceful days were suddenly broken, and Fang Xiang was poisoned. The poisoning was very strange, and the poison in it was very weird, which made Fang Zhongtian puzzled, and Li also washed his face with tears all day long. Until the child was ten years old, there was still no way, but the conflict between Fang Zhongtian and the clan broke out.
It turned out that Fang Zhongtian's identity was special, his father was the previous patriarch of Fangjiazhai, but he died unexpectedly when he was very young, and the current patriarch is his own uncle Fang Ping. Originally, it was decided by the clan at that time that Fang Ping was only the acting patriarch, and he would return to the position of patriarch after Fang Zhongtian became an adult. But until he was in his twenties, Fang Ping didn't mention it, and he didn't mean to return it at all.
Originally, with Fang Zhongtian's free and easy personality, this patriarch didn't pay attention to whether he did it or not, and he never asked. But Aiko's body was severely poisoned and devastated, and he had no choice, so when the child was ten years old, he wanted to use the resources of the clan to go out to treat the child. Unexpectedly, this small request was ruthlessly rejected by Uncle Fang Ping. The matter of the child's poisoning had been suspicious in Fang Zhongtian's heart for all these years, but at this time, the reasonable request was refused, and Fang Zhongtian broke out. first had a big quarrel with Fang Ping, and then convened the clan elders to discuss the matter. But what I never expected was that Fang Ping had been in business for many years and the interests of the clan elders were inseparable, and no one supported Fang Zhongtian. In the end, Fang Zhongtian could only leave Fangjiazhai with his wife and children, but he didn't expect that this trip would be more than ten years.
Because the medicine Fang Xiang took was only produced locally, the family did not dare to leave despite the hardships they had experienced for more than ten years, and could only settle down in a small village on the periphery. And Fang Zhongtian naturally no longer has dealings with Fangjiazhai.
After listening to the woman's speech, they couldn't help but sigh about the warmth and coldness of human feelings and the injustice of heaven. There was still no progress in the next two days, Fang Xiang's body was getting weaker and weaker, and Fang Zhongtian still had no news. Until the third day, the three of them felt that it was not possible to wait like this, so they asked the old woman about the direction where Fang Zhongtian was going at that time and prepared to go into the mountain to look for it. At worst, I also hope to collect drugs to temporarily suppress the toxicity. The old woman was also confused at this time, and she was worried about her man, so she had no choice but to point out the path. So the three of them packed up and went into the mountain.
Although it was early spring, the snow and ice had not melted in the shade of the mountain, and the mountain road that had been stepped on by the herb pickers was very slippery and difficult to walk. According to Fang Zhongtian's statement before leaving, the place he was going to had gone deep into the mountains, so the three of them had no road ahead after a day's trek.
Lao Dao and Xiao Xiao only knew nine out of ten tricks in the art of tracking, so they only relied on the clouds to stop from time to time to identify the direction, observe the plants and soil, and look for traces to make sure they would not be lost. Fortunately, the cloud hunter is very proficient in field tracking, and the soil is very soft at this time, which is easy to leave marks, so as not to affect the speed of travel too much. Even so, after going deep into the mountain range for more than a hundred miles for three days, the traces became clearer and clearer, but Fang Zhongtian still did not find his figure.
The happiest in the past four days is Xiaobai, jumping up and down from time to time to play missing. With their sensitive sense of smell for medicinal materials, they found more than a dozen precious medicinal materials, and even the much-needed wood spirit root was lucky to find one. Originally, Yun Yun wanted to try to let Xiao Bai find him with Fang Zhongtian's scent, but after being taken a few detours in a row, he had no choice but to give up, it turned out that this guy couldn't be a dog.
In the evening of this day, the three of them came out for a while, although they can still find some traces from time to time, but this mountain is so big that I don't know when I will find it, I'm afraid I can't hold on. After all, it is a matter of human life, and now that I have the medicine in my hand, if I haven't found it tomorrow, I will go back first, and it is good to suppress the toxicity for the time being. Now that the decision had been made, when the next day after a morning of searching in vain, the three of them set out on the way back.
This time, Yun chose a convenient route to go down the mountain, which can shorten the distance down the mountain a lot. But before they had walked twenty miles, everyone found obvious traces. Broken trees, small patches of blood, and fragments of clothing were clearly not long behind. Sure enough, more than a dozen miles away, they found a man who had passed out. This man was about fifty years old, and he was born very rough. But at this time, the clothes on his body were badly damaged, and the exposed skin was full of blood. One leg was visibly broken, but it was simply fastened with branches and rattan. Although he smeared himself with herbs, the blood still oozed out due to the constant movement.
Yun stepped forward to check it: "The internal injury is not serious, but the leg has been broken, and he has lost his strength and passed out of a coma." This person's willpower is very firm, and the thirty miles we see should have crawled all the way, and I don't know how far away we don't know if we haven't seen it. But luckily, the smell of blood didn't attract any beasts. ”
Lao Dao stepped forward and looked at it for a while and said: "You see that there are many similarities between his eyebrows and the poisoned kid, this person should be Fang Zhongtian, but the details will not be clear until he wakes up." ”
In the evening, Fang Zhongtian woke up slowly, feeling very warm and comfortable on his body, and even the injuries on his legs were not so painful. And there is a trace of warm current in the back pouring into the body, flowing to the limbs and bones. Fang Zhongtian turned back in amazement, only to see a handsome young man holding one palm against the back of his heart to convey internal force to him. The young man smiled when he woke up, and slowly took his work. That person was naturally a cloud, and seeing that he hadn't awakened for a long time, he had delivered a true qi to him, helping him break through the blocked meridians.
"Your Excellency is Fang Zhongtian, right?" the young man asked.
Fang Zhongtian's heart tightened, but seeing that the other party had no malice and had a life-saving grace for him, he immediately admitted honestly: "Yes, I am Fang Zhongtian." Dare to ask where the little brother knows? By the way, I haven't thanked you for saving my life, and I don't know my brother's name?"
Yun smiled a little: "My name is Yun Yun, I met Aunt Li by chance at the bottom of the mountain, and I was entrusted by her to come to look for you." I've got two companions to look for food, and you're still weak, and we'll rest for a while, and we'll talk about that later. ”
Hearing that it was the old wife who asked him to find him, although Fang Zhongtian still had a lot of puzzles, he finally put his heart at ease and thanked him again, and then fell asleep deeply. I don't know how long it took for Fang Zhongtian to wake up, a strong smell of barbecue meat penetrated his nostrils, and he saw that the young man and a young girl and an old man just now were sitting around the fire and grilling wild meat. A white ferret lay beside it, staring at the round eyes of the dripping water, and from time to time wanted to come forward to steal a bite, but the girl was dragged by the tail, so she had to squeak as if protesting.
Fang Zhongtian hurriedly struggled to sit up, gave a deep salute and said, "Please forgive Fang for being injured and unable to make a big gift, and the grace of reinvention Fang Mou will be remembered." If he sends a certain party every day, he will not give up. ”
Seeing what he said sincerely, Lao Dao waved his hand and smiled slightly: "You're welcome, just be entrusted." Are you feeling better? Let's eat something together. ”
Fang Zhongtian hurriedly said that he felt much better, and thanked him again and again. After a while, the meat was roasted, and everyone ate it. After a few mouthfuls of hot food into his stomach, Fang Zhongtian felt that he had regained some strength, but the doubts in his heart were still unabated. The young man who gave himself true qi just now has a pure and deep internal force far above himself. That girl is eccentric and doesn't look like an ordinary person. The old man, in particular, felt unfathomable to him. Such a group of high-ranking people, their status is naturally not low, and they must be respected wherever they go, and they don't know each other. He is also an old man, and he definitely doesn't believe that just a few words of pleading from his old wife can invite moving people to come all the way to find him. But he has been mixed up in such a situation, and there should be nothing to be done. Thinking of this, he chuckled in his heart!
Seeing that he was unrelenting, Lao Dao nodded and smiled and said, "Have you eaten enough? Let's talk when you're full! It seems that you are also a little puzzled in your heart." But we don't mean anything malicious, we just have a few things to ask you. ”
Fang Zhongtian hurriedly said that he would definitely answer truthfully. Under the signal of the old Dao's gaze, Yun Yun walked over and asked a few questions: "You are Fang Zhongtian of Fangjiazhai, right?"
Although Fang Jiazhai's words made Fang Zhongtian's pupils shrink, he was still honest.
"Do you know Ping'an Town in Daqingshan?"
"Do you know someone surnamed Yun?"
"Do you recognize a sloppy old man in his sixties?"
Yun asked a few questions in a row, but found that Fang Zhongtian was at a loss, and he knew that he hadn't found the right person this time.
Sure enough, Fang Zhongtian replied that he had never seen the person mentioned by the cloud, and he had never even heard of the place name Daqingshan, which affirmed the guess of the cloud.
