Chapter 70

After Xie xuanchen finished, no one spoke for a long time. Mu Mingtang looked at the expressionless Xie xuanchen and the little Taoist with a tight face, and slowly understood: "it turns out that the travelling doctor who developed jingerdan for the LORD was your master?"

Little Taoist didn't expect that things would be so coincident. He was afraid to meet the people of that year, but he stopped a group of business on the road casually, which was the great man of that year.

Without saying a word, the little Taoist didn't want any money. He quickly picked up his things and said, "I can't count your life. I won't do this business. I have something else to do at home. Let's go ahead!"

"Little Taoist..." As soon as Mu Mingtang saw that he was about to slip away, he quickly said, "you haven't taken your silver yet."

"Money is something out of my life. I don't want it in the small way."

"That's gold."

The little Taoist stopped for a moment, and his back faintly revealed a struggle. At last, he gritted his teeth and said, "the little Taoist is immoral and does not love vulgar things. Don't

"What about your life?" Xie xuanchen youyou said, "your life, your master's revenge, do you still want it?"

Little Taoist Huo ground turns round: "what do you say?"

Xie xuanchen said without hesitation: "you must know better than me how your master died. If you plan to live in such a state of fear and fear for the rest of your life and live without dignity, or even avenge your master, you can move on as far as possible. "

The Taoist priest wrinkled his round face angrily: "you..."

The little Taoist's chest heaved and his face turned red. When his master traveled all over the world, he came to the capital by chance and found that the imperial list was being posted in the imperial city for medical treatment. His master's medical skills were superb. When he encountered difficult and miscellaneous diseases, he naturally wanted to have a try, so he uncovered the imperial list.

I didn't expect that this revelation would kill me. His master stayed in the capital for several months. At first, he was with him. But one day, his master suddenly asked him to deliver medicine to a former patient. His face was severe, so he sent him away that night. Little Taoist didn't know, so when he came back, he learned that master had left the capital.

It's never happened before that you don't say hello or even leave a message. The little Taoist went around to look for his master. It was not until a long time later that he heard that his master had wandered to a barren mountain. When he was collecting medicine, he accidentally fell off the cliff and had already gone.

Naturally, the Taoist doesn't believe it. His master pays more attention to health preservation. His legs and feet are more agile than him. He has many years of experience in collecting herbs. It's OK to collect herbs hanging on the stone wall. How could he fall on a hillside? The little Taoist didn't give up. He secretly visited. The more he investigated, the more frightened he was.

He finally knew that this was not something he could cause. He could not find out the cause of master's death. The little Taoist didn't dare to practice medicine any more, but he had no other means to make a living. He had to hide his name and rely on the divination skill he had learned in his school. He was able to do fortune telling and expel ghosts. Occasionally perform a trick to sell plasters and earn extra money.

I didn't expect that he changed his career to fortune telling, but he still met the victim of that year.

The little Taoist didn't pay attention at first. When they took out the net Erdan, they thought of it. He wanted to pretend that he didn't know him and took master's pills and ran away. However, he was still exposed.

The little Taoist understands that although Xie xuanchen is alone now, he seems to be weak, but according to his strength of breaking the corner of the table just now, Xie xuanchen alone is enough to clean up the little Taoist. If Xie xuanchen doesn't want him to go, the little Taoist can't go out.

The little Taoist was angry for a while and said, "I said that I can't cure this disease. My master can't cure it. How can I do it? Two adults have a lot of money. Let me go. "

Mu Ming Tang thought how it could be. They just sneaked out today. There is no emperor's Eyeliner behind him. It's a godsend. Although the little Taoist said that he could not cure, he was the apprentice of the travelling doctor in those years. Even if he could not cure, it would be better not to. Anyway, she must tie this Taoist to the palace. No, please go to the palace.

Mu Mingtang finds that she and Xie xuanchen have been together for a long time and become bandits. Of course, it doesn't matter. Mu Mingtang suppresses his real idea, smiles kindly, and says, "the Taoist priest doesn't know. Today, when I came out with the prince, I didn't have a servant. Only you, me and Wang Ye know this matter, and outsiders will never know your identity. You just have to play a fortune teller Come on, let's go back to the palace with the magicians. We'll have all the food and accommodation. We'll get a monthly salary. We'll get a reward on New Year's day. And these are separate from your consultation fee. If you can come up with a prescription, it's 100 yuan for each dose. What do you think, Taoist

The Taoist can't help but figure out how much a piece of medicine costs in a month The little Taoist stopped by force, and the idea of being greedy for life and afraid of death still prevailed: "no matter how much money you earn, you have to spend your life. I'm afraid of hiding in the marketplace. If I go back with you, won't I be recognized immediately? No, no, I can't make it. "

"No Xie xuanchen said, "now all the people in the palace have changed again. I'm afraid that even your master can't recognize the death powder of those who were involved in the matter. How about you who were just a little medicine boy? Besides, attack is the best defense. ""You have no power to protect yourself now. If you are found out, you have to wait for death. And you don't act, also save the trouble of hands. If your master is dead, you still have to investigate. If you are dead, who will remember you, master and apprentice? " Xie xuanchen looked at the Taoist priest's look, put down the last heavy hammer, "only I, and your master and apprentice's position is naturally consistent. Follow me, and as long as I live, I will keep you at peace for one day. "

The little Taoist is a little bit agitated. He is greedy for life and afraid of death. He has been living in terror these years. What's more, he dare not go into medicine. He can't even earn enough money to support his life. It's very hard for him to have a full meal. But as the saying goes, it's better to live than to die. Xie xuanchen can protect him when he is alive. What if Xie xuanchen can't live himself?

Mu Mingtang seems to be hesitating when he sees the Taoist priest. At this moment, Mu Mingtang suddenly blesses his heart and says in a soft voice: "little Taoist, if you don't have a meal like this, I'm afraid you might as well go to the palace to eat and drink for three days. In that case, why do you hesitate? "

The little Taoist was suddenly enlightened by a sentence. Yes, he worked hard all his life, and I'm afraid he couldn't match the three-day expenses of the palace. What else can he try to do? Why don't he go to the dog's house to eat and drink? Maybe he will earn his whole life's money in a month.

After thinking about this, the Taoist priest was urged to calculate the bill by breaking his fingers and the two big dog owners in front of him: "you said, you should pay for food and shelter, pay salary every month, and get a reward every year. The diagnosis fee is calculated separately. One medicine is 100 yuan. You can pay for the medicine yourself! "

Mu Mingtang insisted: "good."

"Deal."

·

the prince and the princess disappeared in full view of the public, and the whole palace was frightened. Xiang nanchun followed the crowd to the back door and saw that there was a chain destroyed by violence on the ground. The back door was wide open, but the prince and princess had disappeared.

Xiang nanchun nearly fainted at that time, and the chief bodyguard was also frightened. He quickly sent several passers-by to chase him out through the back door and look for him along the street. He was sure to get the prince and Princess back.

Xiang nanchun stayed in the palace and constantly sent people to look around. The maid followed Xiang nanchun and asked in a low voice, "aunt Xiang, the missing Prince Do you want to report to the palace? "

Xiang nanchun's face was ugly. She thought for a while and slowly shook her head: "wait. If we are known by the emperor and the queen, we must be punished. Let the bodyguard go out to look for it first. Maybe the prince and princess are just on a whim and will come back in a moment. "

The maid took the order and left. With that, Xiang nanchun felt more and more heavy.

Her position is to survive between the cracks, not inside and outside. Xie xuanchen defends her, and the palace defends her, too. He has done a lot of work, and in the end, he may not be able to do well on any side.

Just like today, she is not in a dilemma to report or not to report.

The prince's house is flying with chickens and dogs. Xiang nanchun suddenly hears the little servant girl rushing in to report: "aunt Xiang, the prince and the princess are back!"

Xiang nanchun suddenly stood up: "what?"

"Really, at the door. And bring back a craftsman! "

Xiang nanchun hurried out. Sure enough, he met Mu Mingtang and Xie xuanchen on the main road.

Xiang nanchun was surprised and saluted in a hurry: "I see the prince and princess. If the servants can't serve me well, I'd like to ask the prince and the princess to come down. "

"No harm." When Mu Mingtang waved his hand, he didn't have the consciousness of the culprit at all. On the contrary, he generously expressed his forgiveness, "it's me and the Lord who rise up. Just go outside and have a look. By the way, a few days ago, Mrs. Li invited a person who can perform butterfly magic. Today, I saw one on the road, whose subtlety is no worse than Mrs. Li's. It happens to be raised in the palace. When I'm bored, I can watch it anytime I want to. "

Xiang nanchun quickly glanced at the artists behind Mu Mingtang. Although he was surprised, he still respectfully answered: "yes."

It's not necessary for a princess Mu Mingtang to worry about the arrangement of guest houses. But today, she was so interested that she asked about the empty house in the palace, and then pointed out a room for the artist in the Taoist robe.

Mu Mingtang didn't dare to do too much. After he set a convenient place for the Taoist priest, the rest of the work was arranged by the maids.

In the evening, Mu Mingtang and Xie xuanchen changed their dark clothes and took advantage of the night to find the Taoist priest.

For the first time, the Taoist was awakened from his bed. He yawned and forced himself to hold on to his sleepiness. After a while, he couldn't understand: "the pulse is steady, isn't it OK. What the hell are you doing here? "

Mu Mingtang was worried and said in a low voice, "I don't want you to see him now. Of course he's ok now. The problem is that Wu Yufei, if he meets the drug guide next time, will he still have an attack? "

The Taoist priest pressed for a while and nodded for sure: "yes."

Hearing this answer, Mu Mingtang could not hide his disappointment. Xie xuanchen had expected that, but he didn't feel much regret. "Can it be solved?" he asked

This time, the little Taoist thought about it and hesitated: "when my master stayed in the capital for several months, he wanted to develop an antidote. When I was sent away, the elixir had only a rudiment. I didn't know what the complete elixir looked like. But my master has been practicing medicine for many years. He has excellent medical skills and lofty medical ethics. He will never fool people. The last thing he took out was the medicine he tried his best to make. But even so, it can't cure the Lord. My medical skill is far inferior to that of my master. My master can't do it, let alone me. "Mu Mingtang pondered and said, "it's not that Jing Erdan can't solve it, but that there are legacy problems and addiction."

"Oh?" The little Taoist raised his eyebrows in surprise and said, "give me the pill and I'll have a look."

Mu Mingtang hands over Jing Erdan. The little Taoist cut a small piece, ground it, smelled it and tasted it. Finally, he thought, "after master went, I found master's manuscript, which seems to have mentioned this. In his life, he traveled all over the world, saw many difficult and complicated diseases, and cured many of them, such as king Qiyang in the capital. But later, in master's manuscript, he completely overturned his own prescription. He was always looking for a perfect method to cure his illness. Unfortunately, before he found it, master had an accident. "

It turns out that the travelling doctor totally overturned his own method. Unfortunately, he died before he thought of the method. Mu Mingtang was worried and asked, "what can you do? Can you improve your master's prescription?"

"No. Even if you give me master's prescription, I can't change it, not to mention that there is no prescription at all, only finished medicine. " The little Taoist said and tried hard to recall, "I remember that on the last few pages of master's manuscript, it was said that it is not feasible to treat medicine with medicine. If you rely on medicine to fight against another medicine, you will only be controlled by new medicine in the end. To give up completely, we have to rely on ourselves. He wrote these words so carelessly that I can't understand the rest. "

When Mu Mingtang heard these words, he was both worried and happy. What he was happy about was that there was a possibility to solve the problem after all. What he was worried about was that he could not use the medicine and did not know the method.

Unlike Mu Mingtang, who is worried, Xie xuanchen seems to be very relieved. "Knowing the reason is half the solution," he said. Wu Yufei must have been under for a long time. Over time, every drop of water wears away the stone, and then it will be triggered. But it's enough to know that it's medicine. As long as you can take medicine, you can always cure it. "

Mu Mingtang also took a deep breath and said, "you're right. I'm in a hurry. Let's take our time. There's always a way

After Mu Mingtang finished, he sighed: "I'm not as ashamed as you, a patient."

Xie xuanchen shakes his head and holds Mu Mingtang's hand. Mu Mingtang is very disappointed when he hears that there is no medicine, but Xie xuanchen feels relieved. It may be that Xie xuanchen has been disappointed many times in recent years, and his requirements have become very low. As long as you know that it's not his own problem, it's the manipulation of foreign objects. Even when he suddenly went crazy, it might be the drug induced inducement. Xie xuanchen has been relieved too much.

There's nothing worse than what he's been through.

Xie xuanchen, a patient with a wonderful attitude, can also comfort people around him in turn. The Taoist priest is also a little surprised. He said, "I'll go back and look at master's manuscript. Although I say that I can't rely on drugs, it's OK to use drugs to recuperate my body and speed up my recovery during the period of giving up Wu Yufei."

"Good!" Mu Mingtang was overjoyed and said, "thank you, Taoist. As long as it's good for the Lord, whatever you need, just open your mouth. "

Mu Mingtang and his eyes were so sincere that he felt guilty about the Taoist. "I'm not sure it's going to work," he said. "I haven't seen anyone sick for a long time."

Mu Mingtang also saw it. When the Taoist said that, Mu Mingtang was more worried. She couldn't help patting on the table, and her eyes were eager to catch fire: "you can't be uncertain! He wants to drink these medicines. What if you drink them badly? You have to be safe to do it

"No harm." Xie xuanchen stopped Mu Mingtang, took her hand off the table and held it in his own hand, "let him treat it. It doesn't matter what it looks like. Where you can go is where you can go. "

Mu Mingtang looks at Xie xuanchen. Even though he is still worried, he sighs and doesn't speak any more.

The two of them went back to the house and closed the window. Tonight, the moon is just right. Through the window pane, the ground is as clear as water.

Mu Mingtang took off his cloak and was inexplicably depressed: "little Taoist said that there is no antidote, the most medicine can relieve your pain. What shall we do? "

"It doesn't matter." Xie xuanchen closed the window and saw Mu Mingtang's dignified face. He amusingly touched Mu Mingtang's hair. "Wherever you go, it's no worse than before. Don't be afraid. "

"But..." Mu Mingtang looked at or unhappy, "I can't do anything for you."

Xie xuanchen laughs. The moonlight comes through the window and shines on them, pulling out a long shadow on the ground. Xie xuanchen touched the top of Mu Mingtang's hairy hair, suddenly reached out and gently hugged Mu Mingtang: "there won't be anything more difficult than the past two years. You don't need to do anything. You just stand here and it's more effective than any medicine. "
