85_85978 The sun is rising.

A white-headed cyclamen bird in the treetops chirps and jumps happily, shuttling between the green leaves. This bird is covered with green feathers, white feathers on the top, called the cyclamen bird, very rare, and very spiritual, understandable, and enlightening people's hearts.

In the dilapidated Taoist temple, a beautiful Taoist priest chuckled, and with a gesture of his hand, the bird spread its wings and flew and landed in the hands of the Taoist priest.

This pure-looking young man, dressed in Taoist clothes, looks like he is about sixteen or seventeen years old. Looking at his appearance, his eyebrows are clear and his eyes are beautiful, and he is slightly civilized, but he is not weak.

The young Taoist priest named Qin Xianyu is the only disciple of this Taoist temple and the master of the temple.

The Qin family is a family of doctors, who have been practicing medicine for generations, and have a high reputation, Qin's father is busy treating diseases and saving people, and he is too busy to teach Qin Xianyu the way of medicine and the ability to debate medicine. Fortunately, the old master of this nameless Taoist temple is quite knowledgeable in medicine, and he was once a good friend of the old lady Qin, so Qin's father entrusted his young son to the old master.

Qin Xianyu followed the old master for several years, and the old master taught him how to identify medicines, taught him the medical theory of medicine, and passed on good prescriptions for diseases. Occasionally, when he had time, he asked Qin Xianyu to recite Taoist classics and watch Taoist treasures. In the end, Qin Xianyu's deep study of Taoist classics was not inferior to medical classics.

According to the old master, medical books and Taoist books have similarities in some places, such as the theory of meridian acupuncture points, similar words in the books, etc., and reading Taoist books has the effect of touching and bypassing medicine.

Two years ago, Qin's father and mother both contracted a vicious disease and died of illness on the same day, and the old master also contracted the same disease and passed away soon after.

The three generations of the Qin family have practiced medicine, and since then, their reputation has plummeted, especially the Qin Divine Doctor's own illness and death. The word "miracle doctor" has become an excuse for many jealous doctors and doctors, or people who are at odds with the Qin family, to criticize them fiercely.

Qin Xianyu is still young, and no one believes in the Qin family's medical skills anymore, let alone this young hairy boy. And the Qin family's medicine hall has been occupied by relatives, so he can only be with the cyclamen bird given to him by his mother.

Fortunately, this bird is understandable and knows people's words, Qin Xianyu is not boring. With his ability to debate medicine, this young man's life is quite leisurely, sometimes he just digs up a taste of medicinal herbs, and after exchanging them into silver coins, he can make him have food and clothing for several days.

It just so happened that today was another day of food shortage.

Qin Xianyu picked up the small medicine cage on his back, put the small medicine hoe outside the door, turned around and closed the door, and then bent down to pick up the medicine hoe and went to the woods south of the Taoist temple. The young Taoist priest beckoned slightly, and the cyclamen bird that had just flown back into the tree let out a low cry and flew over his shoulder.

When he was close to Yinghuang Mountain, Qin Xianyu's eyes showed a bit of solemnity, he raised his hand, and said softly: "Go, if there is anything, send me a message immediately." ”

The cyclamen touched him lightly on his neck, let out a long cry, and flew into the sky.

Yinghuang Mountain is a big mountain, the deep grass and trees in the mountains are dense, inaccessible, there are many fierce birds and beasts, even the hunters only dare to hunt in the periphery, do not dare to go deep. And the Taoist temple where Qin Xianyu lives is at the foot of Yinghuang Mountain.

The young Taoist priest inhaled gently, only to feel that the air in the mountains was fresh, and his mood was immediately much clearer.

He carried the medicine hoe and walked forward, almost all the medicinal materials in the vicinity were dug up, and he had to go some further. However, there were many fierce beasts in the deep mountains, and he did not dare to step lightly, so he went around the mountain to collect medicine.

Even if it is on the periphery, it may not be safe. Although those fierce birds and beasts of prey are only in the mountains and rarely come out, there are exceptions. For example, the year before, there was an eagle, half a person high, almost took the cyclamen bird away, but if it couldn't take the cyclamen bird, he saw Qin Xianyu and narrowly captured the young Taoist priest.

Sometimes, there will be wild boars that come out and wander, and these wild boars are no more ferocious than domestic pigs.

"Last time, I picked four silver dollar grasses, which can cure rheumatism and pain, and the effect is excellent, and the price of each plant is about 70 silver dollars. But I was only collecting medicines, and I didn't open a shop, so I couldn't sell them, and people didn't believe that I was a young man, and I sold them to the medicine hall in the city, and I only got ten silver dollars for one plant. Qin Xianyu secretly said in his heart: "The four silver yuan grasses got a total of forty silver coins, bought a small half bag of rice, and ate it for more than ten days. But I remember that seventy paces behind the Silver Dollar Grass there were two more Inklight Grasses. ”

"Ink grass can treat external injuries and make wound medicine, I think the price will be higher, and ordinary medicine halls can sell it for 90 silver per plant. But from my hands to sell it to the drugstore, you can bid about twelve or thirteen pieces of silver per plant. ”

The old Taoist priest gave him the rules, that is, he must leave roots when collecting medicine, and he is not greedy when he gets medicine.

It takes years for medicinal herbs to grow, and if you pick one plant, you will lose one plant. If the root is injured, the medicine seed will be broken, and if the rhizome is left, it will still sprout and grow in the future. And don't be greedy when you get medicine, as long as it's enough, it's good, greed is useless.

Qin Xianyu's family also opened a medicine hall, and every time he picked medicine, he could estimate the approximate selling price, and he felt that it was enough, so he stopped.

Ink grass is as black as ink, grows under trees, is inconspicuous, and is often mistaken for debris. As long as it is ground into powder and sprinkled on the wound, it can stop the bleeding, which is somewhat similar to the method of ordinary people using incense ash and charcoal ash to stop bleeding, but the ink grass is obviously more beneficial and can speed up the healing of the wound.

"Blooming?" Qin Xianyu approached there, saw the ink grass blooming, his heart was very happy, and said secretly: "In just a few days, it actually bloomed." If in another ten days, these flowers will fall to the ground, become seeds, take root and sprout, and after many years, there will be six or seven ink plants. ”

He bypassed the two ink grasses, and was glad that he hadn't dug them up last time.

Qin Xianyu walked to another place and found more than twenty medicinal herbs, although they were only worth a few silver coins, but there were quite a few of them. This type of medicine is very common and can be purchased by poor people in pharmacies.

Coming to the front of these medicinal materials, Qin Xianyu squatted down, dug up the soil around him with a small medicine hoe, and when it was almost over, in order to prevent the medicine hoe from hurting the roots, he put down the medicine hoe and used his hands to remove the soil.

He gently pulled out the medicine, but broke off the roots, put them in a shallow pit, and buried them in the earth.

"This medicine is relatively common, and it grows quickly, and this half of the root can sprout and break through the soil in about half a month. ”

Qin Xianyu dug them one by one, and after digging up the more than 20 herbs, he thought about it in his heart, and secretly thought that it would be good to dig up another class of medicinal herbs. He took a few steps forward, and suddenly he was stunned, only to see a green vine under the tree not far away, climbing up the tree.

He had never seen the green vine, but he had heard of it.

Qin Xianyu studied medicine with the old Taoist priest since he was a child, and recognized medicinal materials, but his father rarely taught him. I still remember the first time I taught him to read medicine, and the picture in the medical book was this green vine.

The green vine is called Shengxian grass, poison.

There was a Taoist priest used to alchemy, after taking it immediately poisoned, his descendants were extremely sad, thinking that this Taoist priest was born after the ascension, so it was called the ascending immortal grass, which means that after taking it, it can ascend to the immortal and go, in fact, it is a kind of poison.

As for the antidote, it is in the body of the tree, in the moss surrounded by green vines.

Qin Xianyu glanced at it, was silent, his mood was a little depressed, and after a long time, he walked to the other side.

This young Taoist priest knows how to debate medicine, and often makes a living by collecting medicines, and in his spare time he reads medical books, Taoist books, especially fairy stories, and is even more obsessed. He has a calm and plain heart, and he doesn't have much ambition, and if he has regrets in his heart, it is probably the illness of his parents and Master.

There was no record of the disease in medical skills, and even if I looked at medical books and borrowed books, I could not find any record of this kind of disease. Qin Xianyu sometimes wonders if it is really an unknown disease, but why is it only his own three elders who are infected with the disease.

Although the young Taoist priest didn't want to think about it, he couldn't help but think about it.

Poisoning?

But who poisoned it, and what poisoned it?

Even if you know who poisoned it, what's the use?

I'm just a teenager, I don't have power, I don't have connections, how can I find out? I find out, I don't know martial arts, and I don't know people who know martial arts, how can I take revenge?

This handsome young man had no clue and no idea where to start, so he had to keep these thoughts in his heart.

On weekdays, he collects medicine for a living and reads books, but the teenager forcibly suppresses other ideas, but he also has a leisurely life. It's just that when I'm occasionally free, I sometimes think of that marriage contract.

Since the death of his parents, Qin Xianyu has never seen anyone in the other party's house, and he has never taken it to heart, because since he was a child, he has never seen that woman, I don't know how she was born, it's not beautiful and ugly, I don't know if it's round or flat.

I vaguely only remember that the other party's surname was Shangguan.

Qin Xianyu had already regarded the marriage contract in his hand as nothing, and if the other party didn't come, he would give up, and when he came, he would destroy the marriage letter in front of him, and he didn't want the other party's girl to be bound by a marriage contract.

The marriage contract was dissolved, and everyone was happy.

Qin Xianyu chuckled softly.

Laughing out loud, Qin Xianyu realized that he had walked for an unknown amount of time, and unconsciously walked to an area that he had never walked before. Fortunately, on the periphery of Yinghuang Mountain, you can also see some traps and marks left by hunters, although you don't know the way, but there are cyclamen birds, but you are not afraid.

Qin Xianyu found that there was a medicinal herb in front of him, which was about the same as the silver yuan grass, and he was slightly happy in his heart, so he stepped forward to dig out the medicinal herb, and then buried the soil back. Thinking that today's harvest was almost enough, he wanted to go back, and with a gesture of his hand, the cyclamen birds hovering in the sky chirped and flew down happily.

Suddenly, the cyclamen bird let out a long and mournful song.

Qin Xianyu was shocked in his heart, and saw the white-headed and blue-bodied cyclamen bird tremble in the air, and then fell down.

Although he couldn't see it clearly, Qin Xianyu could know that the cyclamen bird was clearly hit by a stone.

He was frightened and chased after the place where the cyclamen bird had fallen.

As soon as I took a step, I felt a pain in my back.

Qin Xianyu threw himself forward and fell to the ground.

He was about to get up.

The foot that he had kicked down was on top of him and trampled him to the ground.

I only heard an arrogant voice say, "Collecting medicine?"

The voice also looked young, not more than twenty years old.

Qin Xianyu thought like this, and there was a clear light in front of him, resting on his neck.

That's the blade.

Qin Xianyu held his breath slightly.

"Do you know how to boil medicine and master the heat?"

The arrogant voice said slowly.

Qin Xianyu's brows furrowed slightly, and the pain in his back became more and more painful.

Seeing that he didn't answer, the man snorted, and the blade of the sword pressed close to his neck, making a thin mark, and blood dripped down the blade.

Qin Xianyu nodded slightly, but he paused, took a deep breath, and asked, "How is my cyclamen bird?"

"Under the stone that I struck with a secret weapon, I will definitely die. ”

The man said lightly and waved into the woods.

Out of the woods came four or five young men richly dressed with swords at their waists.

"Get up and refine the medicine. ”

The man removed the sword from Qin Xianyu's neck.

Qin Xianyu could see that his face was reflected on the sword blade that was as clear as water.

A pair of pitch-black pupils were reflected.

It also reflected the chill that flashed in his eyes.

The young Taoist priest gritted his teeth slightly.
