Chapter 269: Ploughing the Cow and Knotting the Bezoar
"Don't believe it. Seeing this, Doctor Jiang explained: "According to the symptoms you just described, there should be a bezoar in the belly of your third uncle's cultivated cow, a pure wild bezoar. ”
"And pure wild bezoar, today's price, is more expensive than gold in the market, and it is not sold at all. After a pause, Divine Doctor Jiang added.
"Ahh
"But the problem is, if you want to take out this bezoar, this ploughing ox will die if you don't do it well!" Master Guan clasped his hands together and looked a little solemn: "Amitabha, do you think this is a blessing in disguise?"
"This ......" Liu Xing was silent.
Master Guan's words reminded him of the black calf locked up in the bullpen.
If he is like the third uncle's cultivated cow, there is a bezoar in his belly, then what should he do?
It's an extremely bloody question, but one that has to be faced.
Because the third uncle's cattle are a lesson from the past, although the black calf may not be like this, but to be honest, he is really a little scared.
I'm afraid that the black calf will be the same as the third uncle's cultivated cattle.
When the time comes......
He was afraid that he really didn't know what to do.
Divine Doctor Jiang saw Liu Xing's thoughts, smiled and comforted: "Don't be afraid, something like bezoar will only appear one or two in a province, so your black calf should not be so lucky." ”
"I'll give you a suggestion now, that is, I will help heal your third uncle and father-in-law's injuries, and take out the bezoar in the belly of the ploughing cow, but this matter is risky, and I dare not guarantee that the ploughing cow will not die. Doctor Jiang said seriously: "As for the price of the bezoar, it is still unknown, so I can't say for sure." ”
"But you have to pay for it. After a pause, Doctor Jiang added again.
He is not a deceitful abductor, so some things must be made clear.
Even if he needs a bezoar, he must get it in an open and honest way.
Liu Xing naturally understands this thought, but he thinks that curing the injury of the third uncle's father-in-law is already a great way to save face for the third uncle.
If he were a doctor, I was afraid that he would not be able to heal his third uncle and father-in-law.
Thinking of this, he frowned: "Grandpa, otherwise, I'll go and discuss with the third uncle, you can treat his father-in-law's broken leg injury for free, as for the reward, it is the bezoar in the belly of the ploughing cow, if not, or the ploughing cow dies, I will be responsible for all the compensation issues." ”
No matter how expensive the bezoar is, it is not as expensive as the hearts of the people.
If Divine Doctor Jiang was chilled by this.
Then his third uncle is afraid that no matter how much money he gets, it will be useless.
As I said, Doctor Jiang needs bezoar, and that is also used on patients.
Instead of taking it out and selling it for money, so in this case, he has to stand up and take a stand.
When Doctor Jiang saw Liu Xing say this, he nodded approvingly: "Okay, everything will be done according to what you say, if your third uncle refuses, then I won't treat his father-in-law's leg injury." ”
"Amitabha, Chuyang, your words have the flavor of taking advantage of the fire to rob!" Master Guan clasped his hands together, and his words were quite dissatisfied.
"You're wrong, I'm saving Third Uncle Liu Xing, and I'm too lazy to care about the others!" Doctor Jiang said with a light sigh.
"What do you mean?" Master Guan was stunned.
"Ploughing cattle and bezoars, this has a lot to do with the living environment, if I guess correctly, around Uncle Liu Xingsan's house, there are definitely bezoars associated with grass, and ploughing cattle eat these associated grasses to produce bezoars in their abdomen. Doctor Jiang stroked his beard and slowly spoke: "But do you know? This kind of associated grass is poisonous, only the ploughing cow eats it, and if other animals or people touch it, it will be poisoned." ”
"I'm not alarmist about this, Master, his old man once encountered such a thing in Luosan Village, Xiangbei Province. After a pause, Divine Doctor Jiang added.
"I see! Master Guan nodded slightly: "Chuyang, then according to your meaning, do you want to go to the vicinity of Uncle Liu Xingsan's house to pick this associated grass to get rid of future troubles?"
"Well, but I don't know if there is. Doctor Jiang smiled.
"None of that matters, you'll know when you go. Liu Xing saw that Doctor Jiang was thinking about his third uncle everywhere, so he immediately turned around and walked into the living room.
Doctor Jiang, Master Guan, and Liu Lao were waiting at the door.
After a while, Liu Xing ran out with a smile on his face: "Grandpa, my third uncle said, you just have to save people, if there is a bezoar in the belly of the ploughing cow, he is willing to give it to you, even if the ploughing ox dies, he will never complain." ”
"That's good!" Divine Doctor Jiang nodded, and walked into the door with Master Guan.
Liu Xing wanted to follow to see the excitement, but was stopped by Liu Lao: "The next thing is to have Doctor Jiang and Master Guan, you hurry up and go upstairs to have a look! ”
"Really?" Liu Xing smiled.
"Go, go!" Liu Lao waved his hand: "As for the injury of your third uncle and father-in-law, there is Wang Gang again! Besides, my people are also around, so there is nothing serious." ”
"Okay! Okay!" Liu Xing nodded when he heard this, and hurriedly ran into the red brick house.
It's just that what stunned him was that while he was talking, the legs of the third uncle and father-in-law in the living room were actually connected, and he could still walk back and forth with the support of Doctor Jiang.
This may be a phenomenon that only occurs when the bone is misaligned and is taken back, otherwise the leg will never be broken so quickly. But Liu Xing knew that even if this was the case, with the skills of Doctor Jiang and Master Guan, I was afraid that it would be difficult to find a few in the country.
And what's even more terrifying is that after the third uncle and father-in-law went up to the stairwell on the second floor, he didn't have to be supported, and he could move freely in the living room, just like a normal person, and he couldn't see that he was an injured person before.
"Kids. Doctor Jiang looked at Liu Xing in the stairwell at this time: "I'll go to Saltpeter Village with your third uncle to deal with some things that should be dealt with, you just take care of the melon seeds at home, just take care of them, and you don't have to worry about other things." ”
"Okay!" Liu Xing saw that Wang Gang was in the living room, looked up and threw the car keys over.
"Let's go!" Doctor Jiang walked with Master Guan, took the third uncle, Wang Gang, and the third uncle's father-in-law, and walked towards the Isuzu two-row truck at the door.
Liu Xingmu sent them out of the door and went up to the second floor.
Just as soon as he walked into the living room, he froze.
It turned out that the floor of the living room was throwing away textbooks everywhere, and the children of melon seeds, Xiao Budian, Xiaodoudou, Zhao Jing, Wang Pan, Nan Nan, and Lan Lan were still playing hide and seek.
It's all caused by the TV!
Liu Xing's face darkened when he heard this, and he found a bamboo strip in the room: "Say, who told you to throw your textbooks on the ground?"
"Hurry up and pick it up, otherwise no one will be allowed to watch this TV in the future." ”
This was the first time Liu Xing lost her temper with the melon seeds, which caught the melon seeds a little off guard, and after she came back to her senses, she quickly picked up the textbooks on the ground.
Xiao Budian had never seen Liu Xing's black face, and hurriedly took Xiaodoudou, Zhao Jing, and Lan Lan to clean up the living room, all of them were well-behaved like little sheep.
Liu Ziran, who was hiding in the room and reading a book, poked his head out of the crack in the door with a smile: "You are such naughty ghosts, now someone finally cleans you up, right?"
"Yay!" melon seeds grimaced at Liu Ziran.
Seeing that Liu Xing's face was still ugly, he hurriedly shrunk his neck and continued to work.
"Second sister, don't you care about it at home?" Liu Xing saw that the living room became clean and tidy in an instant, and he couldn't help but ask Liu Cumin casually.
"I want to take care of it too!" Liu Ziran shook his head when he heard this: "But do you think they will listen to me?" Sister Liping was so angry about Wang Pan's fight with Xiaodoudou that she was angry before, and now she is still lying on the bed!"
"Huh?"
"Sister Liping is okay, right?"
Liu Xing was stunned and asked.
"It should be fine, but you should send these naughty ghosts back tomorrow! Liu Lao has a headache when he looks at it!" Liu Ziran suggested.
"I see. Liu Xing nodded slowly.
This is his negligence, and he doesn't have time to take care of the melon seeds and ignore them.
As a result, we are in this unmanageable situation.
Today is still the first day, and if it is a long time, I am afraid that his skull will die of pain.
Seeing that it was late, he turned his head to look at the melon seeds: "Have you taken a bath?"
"Wash the Guda. Melon Seed raised her little head and replied.
"Speak Mandarin. Liu Xing wanted to keep a straight face, but in the end he smiled, because the appearance of the melon seeds was so cute, he couldn't be serious even if he wanted to.
"Hehe...... melon seeds smiled happily when they saw this: "The bath of the nest is washed, just wait for my brother to come back and sleep!"
"Uncle, so is the nest. Xiao Budian came to Liu Xing with his short legs, and stretched out his little hand to hug Liu Xing's right leg.
"Don't hug it, my uncle stinks very much today. Seeing that it was early in the morning, Liu Xing hurriedly walked towards the bedroom and took the clothes for the bath.
This came out of the toilet after taking a shower.
only to find that melon seeds and Xiao Budian actually fell asleep on the wooden sofa in order to wait for him.
Among them, the melon seeds are still drooling, and there is no doubt that they are eating in their dreams.
Liu Xing looked at it and smiled, quietly picked up the melon seeds and Xiaobudian, and then turned off the light in the living room and went back to sleep.
As for Lan Lan, Xiao Doudou, and Wang Pan, it is estimated that they have also gone back to the room to sleep early.
You can hear it from the snoring in the bedroom opposite.
Otherwise, this moment must still be frolicking.
The night is deep, and the moon is bright.
Liu Xing, who was lying on the bed, had insomnia.
Because he remembered that he had promised the black calf before.
When they moved into the city, they brought the black calves with them.
But he was too busy to forget, and this can't be done.
In a daze, thinking about the happy times he had with the black calf, he fell asleep.
I don't know how long I slept, but I heard someone calling his name in a dream, and the voice was somewhat familiar.
Liu Xing thought it was dawn, but when he opened his eyes, he found that it was pitch black outside.
I had no choice but to lie down and continue to sleep.
Suddenly, he froze, because he had just reacted.
It was Ding Lan's grandmother who called his name just now.
"I didn't do anything to be sorry for her old man, how could this be?" Liu Xing was really puzzled.
But at this time, Master Guan went to the third uncle's house and has not returned, so if you want to solve your doubts, I am afraid that it will not work.
I had no choice but to sleep with the lights on.
Fortunately, the melon seeds and Xiao Budian were not awakened.
And so the night passed.
As soon as it was dawn the next day, Liu Xing got up.
After washing up, I went to the kitchen and started making breakfast.
A moment later.
Wang Gang drove an Isuzu two-row truck to bring back Doctor Jiang and Master Guan.
They didn't go to sleep for the first time, but sat down at the coffee table and drank tea.
Among them, Doctor Jiang also had a wooden box the size of a football in his hand, and there was a pungent smell coming out of it.
But Master Guan and Doctor Jiang did not dislike it, but showed a happy smile.
This scene made Liu Lao, who got up, see it, and he was stunned and asked, "Did you get the bezoar?"
"Well, three associated grasses have also been found, among which the bezoar taken out of the belly of the ploughing cow can be said to be of great value. After saying this, Divine Doctor Jiang opened the wooden box.
Inside was a yellow stone the size of an oval fist, emitting a pungent smell.
Liu Lao frowned when he heard it: "Hurry up and close the box, this smells too bad." ”
"Does it smell bad?" Doctor Jiang stroked his beard and smiled: "Your illness needs this thing as a medicine, and you may not be able to buy it with money." ”
"Huh?" the corners of Liu Lao's mouth twitched.
"It's a pity that the Ding family's thousand-year-old ginseng hasn't been accounted for yet, otherwise we can treat your illness with the right medicine. Master Guan folded his hands and sighed softly.
Wang Gang knew that he could not listen to these words, and after saying them.
Hurriedly went to the kitchen to help.
Liu Xing saw that Wang Gang was back, and hurriedly walked out of the kitchen and told Master Guan about Grandma Dinglan who dreamed about last night.
"Are you sure it's Grandma Ding Lan calling you?" Master Guan asked with a solemn expression after hearing it clearly.
"Pretty sure. Liu Xing replied.
If he wasn't sure, he wouldn't have said it.
"That's weird. Master Guan frowned and looked at Doctor Jiang: "The so-called thinking every day will lead to dreams at night, Liu Xing shouldn't miss the people who have died, but why does such a thing happen?"
"How do I know, maybe Liu Xing was frightened in the market during the day yesterday, and I'll prescribe him a calming medicine later. Doctor Jiang stroked his beard with a puzzled expression: "But I don't think this thing is a bad thing." ”
"What do you say?" the Master of Observation listened with bated breath.
Liu Lao also came to be interested.
Doctor Jiang just wanted to explain, but the door was pushed open.
Then I saw Wu Ju walking in with Ding Xinyi carrying a large bag and a small bag.
Behind them, Ding Lan, who was still wearing linen and filial piety, was still carrying a suitcase in his hand.
"Who are you?" asked Liu Xing puzzled.
"Their sisters don't have a place to live now, so they can only live with you for the time being, and then move out when they find a house. Wu Ju replied with a light sigh.
"Isn't it?, what about Uncle Ding's original house?" Liu Xing was taken aback when he heard this.
Doctor Jiang, Master Guan, and Liu Lao also looked at each other, and some didn't understand what the Ding family meant.
actually drove Ding Lan and Ding Xinyi out, this is impossible for brutes to do such a thing!
"Alas, it's hard to say, now your Uncle Ding is unable to protect himself, the house has been repossessed by the leaders, and now people are also locked up. Wu Ju lifted the teapot and poured himself a cup of tea, and after drinking it all, he continued: "This is related to the thousand-year-old ginseng handed down by the Ding family, but it is a mystery whose hand it is. ”
"The problem is that even if it's because of the thousand-year-old ginseng, Uncle Ding can't be locked up?" Liu Xing was confused, he really couldn't understand these things that the Ding family did.
"Kid, don't you understand this? There is a powerful person who has attacked the thousand-year-old Lingzhi. Doctor Jiang reminded succinctly.
The implication is that if it weren't for the thousand-year-old ginseng, it would be impossible for Ding Ju to be arrested in the past few days after his mother's death.
As soon as these words came out, Liu Xing was stunned.
Master Guan and Liu Lao's faces also became ugly.
Ding Lan saw that the atmosphere was a little embarrassed, and even said to Liu Xing: "Do you still have an empty room here?" Some trouble take me and Xinyi to store the luggage, you can rest assured, our sisters will not bother you for too long." ”
"Sister, don't say that. Liu Xing helped lift the suitcase, and then took the lead towards the opposite bedroom.
Ding Lan took Ding Xinyi to follow behind.
Seeing that Liu Xing also helped to lay out the quilt, his eyes were red with emotion.
"Sister, everything will pass. Liu Xing looked at the clock on the wall: "You haven't eaten breakfast yet, I'll go to the kitchen to do it, you can rest first." ”
"Hmm. Ding Xinyi nodded repeatedly.
Ding Lan took out a rectangular copper box only four centimeters thick from the suitcase and handed it to Liu Xing: "This is what my father asked me to give you before he was arrested, and he said that if you can open this box, the contents will be yours." ”
"What's in there?" Liu Xing asked curiously.
"I don't know, what came down from my grandmother's hand has never been opened. Ding Lan replied.
"Really?" Liu Xing took it and checked it carefully, and saw that the words 'In case of the fire of the sun and the moon, this box can be opened' written on the top of the copper box, he immediately raised his head and asked Ding Lan: "What is the fire of the sun and the moon?"
"I don't know. Ding Lanlian shook his head.
If I knew, I am afraid that this copper box would have been opened a long time ago.
I already knew what was inside.
"Can I take it out and show it to Grandpa Jiang and Master Guan?" asked Liu Xing.
"Of course, now that this copper box is yours, you can do whatever you want, but I warn you in advance, this copper box must not be opened by force, because there is a mechanism inside!" Ding Lan reminded.
"Got it. Liu Xing smiled and walked out of the bedroom with the copper box.
However, it was unexpected.
I asked Master Guan and Doctor Jiang, but I still didn't come up with a way to open the copper box.
Seeing that the melon seeds were about to eat breakfast with a small bowl, they had to put away the copper box temporarily, and then went to the kitchen to get busy.
Half an hour later, a hearty breakfast was made.
There is rice porridge, sweet potato porridge, and fried dough sticks and vegetable buns that I bought.
The melon seeds were not polite to Liu Xing, so he picked up a small bowl and filled a bowl of sweet potato porridge, and sat at the gate with fried dough sticks and ate it with relish.
Seeing this, the other children hurriedly went to the cupboard to get dishes and chopsticks.
Liu Xing was about to tell them to line up not to worry, but Xie Zhong's shout sounded outside the door: "Liu Xing, are you at home?"
"Here!" Liu Xing gave Wang Gang the spoon for scooping rice porridge, and hurriedly walked out.
Under the camphor tree at the gate, Xie Zhong stood there with a copper box in his hand, probably because the copper box was very heavy, and the whole person was tilted to the right.
When he saw Liu Xing coming, he hurriedly put down the copper box: "I went to Ding Ju's house early this morning, who knows that I heard Fang Youwei say that Ding Ju was arrested, and I can't send this copper box to him!
"I don't want to. Liu Xing refused without thinking about it, seeing that there were no strangers around, he asked softly the doubts in his heart: "Do you know what Ding Ju was arrested for?"
"How do I know, I only heard Fang Youwei say it in the morning, but I heard the neighbors around me talking, as if it was Fang Youwei's Ding Bureau who reported it. Xie Zhong replied in a low voice.
"What is called like, is what Fang Youwei does. Wu Ju, who was drinking rice porridge with a small bowl on the side, couldn't help but say: "If I hadn't been transferred to the bureau for a few months and had a clean foundation, I'm afraid I wouldn't be able to stand here and talk." ”
"Huh?" Xie Zhong froze.
"Why did he do this?" Liu Xing's face turned ugly.
He said that it was impossible for the Ding Bureau to be arrested for a thousand-year-old ginseng, and it turned out that it was the Ding family's own people who were doing their own thing.
It's not right, Fang Youwei's surname is Fang, he is not a member of the Ding family.
In a word.
It's not a fucking thing.
Wu Ju drank the rice porridge in the bowl in one go before replying: "Specifically, I don't know why Fang Youwei did this, but I know one thing, it was Fang Quan who sent someone to arrest Ding Ju." ”
"What?" Liu Xing's eyes widened.
Xie Zhong also gasped.
This party has a lot of power, but the power in his hand is big, so the Ding Bureau is finished this time.
But Liu Xing didn't think so, and even knew why Fang Quan wanted to arrest Ding Ju.
Because Fang Quan was already terminally ill and could not be saved, it was very likely that he needed the Ding family's thousand-year-old ginseng to continue his life.
Fang Quan asked Master Guan for help before, and he was present, so this speculation does not need to be argued at all, but an ironclad fact.
Thinking of this, Liu Xing's eyes suddenly appeared with a wise light, and he looked at Xie Zhong teasingly: "Grandma Ding Lan gave me a copper box, I want you to give it to Fang Youwei, and then lied to him that there was a thousand-year-old ginseng in it, and used it as a bargaining chip to save Ding Ju, do you dare?"
"I don't dare. Xie Zhonglian waved his hand.
Now that the Ding family has become like this, if he is messing around, he is afraid that it will make things worse.
"I dare. Wu Ju stood up at this time.
"This ......" Liu Xing didn't know what to say for a while.
Because Wu Ju's identity is different from Xie Zhongke.
Once something out of your control happens, it's a big problem.
He also had no way to explain to Zhang Xiangjun and Nan Nan.
"You just let Wu Changsheng go, if you are arrested like Ding Dali, I swear in the name of the Liu family that I can definitely rescue you. Liu Lao's deep voice came from the living room, and it was obvious that he had heard the conversation between Liu Xing and Xie Zhong just now.
As soon as these words came out, Liu Xing had no excuse to hesitate.
Xie Zhong even handed the copper box directly to the Wu Bureau: "This copper box is very heavy, and according to Grandma Ding Lan, there are valuable things in it, you have to be careful." ”
"Don't worry!" Wu Ju took the copper box, reached out and patted Xie Zhong's shoulder, turned around and walked towards the jeep parked on the side of the road.
Xie Zhong watched the jeep disappear on the road, and did not say hello to Liu Xing, and left with his head down.
Because he realized that he had missed the opportunity to be appreciated by Liu Lao just now.
If you stay, you'll be redundant.
But he still doesn't regret it.
Because of the current Ding family.
It's really eventful.
......
