Chapter 233

In an unnamed small town beside the Yellow River Ferry, Li Jianxin and his party were riding horses towards the city. Before entering the city gate, they saw a group of refugees pouring out of the small town.

Li Jianxin rode his horse slowly to the side of the group of refugees. He pulled the reins and dismounted. He pulled a thin yellow-faced man and asked: "Uncle, what happened in this city? Why are you all fleeing?" went."

The yellow-faced man glanced at Li Jianxin and said with a grimace: "As for the young master, there is a plague in this city, so we escaped. If the young master wants to go south, it is better not to enter the city. , so as not to get involved in the plague." After saying this, the yellow-faced man took his child, lifted the sagging baggage on his back, and then slowly walked away.

"Jianxin, what happened inside?" the one-armed old man Jiu Xiao slowly led the horse over and asked Li Jianxin.

"He said there was a plague in there, so that's why he fled." Li Jianxin replied.

"Plague? How can there be a plague when everything is going well?" the one-armed old man asked in confusion.

Li Jianxin spread his hands helplessly, shrugged at the one-armed old man and said, "I don't know, let's go into the city and have a look." Then he tore off a piece of cotton cloth from his sleeve, and wiped his nose and mouth. After covering it, he said to the one-armed old man Jiu Xiao and the others: "Although we have some martial arts skills, it's better to be careful, so as not to get into the plague."

"That's right." The one-armed old man Jiu Xiao responded, and ordered his brothers and sisters to wrap his mouth and nose with cotton cloth.

Originally, there should be soldiers patrolling under the city gate, but this time Li Jianxin did not see the patrolling soldiers.After entering the city, Li Jianxin smelled a bitter and moldy medicinal smell, and the streets were full of boiled medicinal residues and trampled paper money.

As soon as Li Jianxin entered the city, he felt that the city was much more desolate. The stores that were still open had already been closed, and there were no people wandering on the street, only a few idlers wandering on the street. But he also looked at Li Jianxin and the others from afar, not daring to go forward.

"What's going on?" the one-armed old man asked Li Jianxin.

"I don't know either, let's find a place to live in a sharp point first, and then we'll find out after asking." The one-armed old man Jiu Xiao said lightly.

"That's right, just go to the inn I visited last time. I don't know if that inn is still open." Li Jianxin suggested, and then led the way.After turning left and right, Li Jianxin also heard mourning and music coming from the houses on both sides of the street from time to time, and couldn't help but shook his head. It really is the suffering of the prosperous people and the suffering of the dead.

Soon Li Jianxin and his party arrived in front of the inn, but the door of the inn was closed tightly. "It seems that the door is closed." The one-armed old man said lightly.

"Let me go up and knock on the door first, what if someone is inside?" Li Jianxin got off his horse as he spoke, walked to the door of the inn, knocked on the door, and shouted loudly: "Shopkeeper! Shopkeeper! Someone is here." Inside?"

Li Jianxin yelled a few words, then heard rustling footsteps coming from the house, and then someone called from inside: "Who is it, we are closed, if the guest is staying in the shop, please go elsewhere."

"Shopkeeper, just open the door." Li Jianxin said with a smile. He could tell from the footsteps and voice of the man inside that he was the shopkeeper.

"Now that there is a plague, I don't dare to open the door. If you want to stay in the shop, please go elsewhere. Don't embarrass the little old man." The shopkeeper replied inside.

Li Jianxin looked at the one-armed old man. The one-armed old man just shook his head. Li Jianxin turned his head and faced the door again and said: "Shopkeeper, we don't live in the store. We just want to ask you. Almost half a month ago, we were a group of six people." I came to stay at the hotel personally, but for some reason my friend and I got lost. So I came here specifically to ask."

"Who remembers what happened half a month ago?" The shopkeeper said impatiently, but he saw a 100 tael bank note passed through the crack of the door, and Li Jianxin's voice came from outside the door: "It's better to trouble the shopkeeper, you have to think about it more."

The shopkeeper took the bank note and stuffed it into his bosom, then pulled out a piece of the door panel, showing a sad face. "Shopkeeper, think about it. A total of six of us came to stay at the shop that day, and King Ning even came to see me. Do you still have any impression?" Li Jianxin made a gesture as he spoke.

The shopkeeper scratched his head, glanced at Li Jianxin suspiciously, and said, "Prince Ning did find someone before, but not like you." After hearing this, Li Jianxin noticed that he was disguised in the inn. He looked like he was here and clapped his thigh quickly and said, "Shopkeeper, I had an easy time when I came to the inn before, but now I am my true self."

"Oh, it's you. Those brothers of yours also changed their minds. I just remembered after you said that. Your brothers are staying at the Zhao family in the north of the city, with a genius doctor. Where do you go?" Just look for them."

Hearing this, Li Jianxin could not help but smile on his face, he cupped his hands to the shopkeeper and said, "Then thank you very much, old man."

"Some things are not trivial, but those brothers of yours are so warm-hearted that they dare to help that miracle doctor." As the shopkeeper said this, he took out the banknote from his pocket. A trace of unbearability flashed in his eyes, but he still took it. He handed the banknote to Li Jianxin and said, "Since you, young hero, are with them, I can't bear the money." He then forced the banknote to Li Jianxin.

Li Jianxin refused, but shirked and said: "Shopkeeper, you should keep it. You don't know when this plague will end. It's time to spend money, so just keep it." As he said that, he turned around and left .Seeing that Li Jianxin's demeanor was not fake, the shopkeeper stuffed the banknote back into his pocket, called Li Jianxin again and said, "Young man, please wait."

"What's the matter with the shopkeeper?" Li Jianxin turned around and asked again.

"You'll wait," the shopkeeper said, then turned around and returned to the inn, walked over with a large jar of wine, removed two door panels, and said to Li Jianxin: "This wine is for you, you Accept it, otherwise the money will be too hot for me to hold." As he spoke, he picked up the wine jar on the ground and handed it to Li Jianxin.

"Alright, then I'll take it." Li Jianxin didn't shirk, just took the jar of wine with a smile, and said to the shopkeeper with a smile, "thank you so much." .” Then he turned and left.The shopkeeper watched Li Jianxin walk away, and then carefully pushed the door up.

In the courtyard of Zhao's family in the north of the city, a group of people were busy, not because of the bitter smell of medicine, but also with some helpless groans of pain.Wang Jin and Tang Bo were busy going here, helping this middle-aged Taoist priest, and distributing bowls of black medicinal soup to the patients who were queuing up.

When Li Jianxin and his group walked into the Zhao family's house, they saw emaciated patients on both sides of the street. These patients had herpes on their bodies, and there was a little green pus flowing out of the wound, and from time to time there were some green pus. Head flies buzzed around these people.Looking at this scene where all living beings suffer, Li Jianxin couldn't help feeling a little sad, which is pity for the same kind.

"Is this the Zhao family's house?" Li Jianxin dismounted and asked a man lying on the roadside with his mouth already cracked.

The man opened his mouth, and a bitter smell came out. He waved his hand to Li Jianxin and said, "This is the Zhao family." After saying that, he turned his back to Li Jianxin.

"Looks like it's here." Li Jianxin led the horse and said to the one-armed old man Jiu Xiao.

"En." Jiu Xiao responded lightly. "These people are really miserable." It was the prostitute who sighed faintly and said.

"Yes, this disease is not easy to cure." But the sloppy Taoist said with a bitter face.

"Senior, you can also cure diseases?" Li Jianxin couldn't help but asked in surprise.

"He is the leader of the 'Shengmen' of our generation, what do you think." The Fengchen woman just said with a smile. "Senior, please take action when the time comes. If these plagues spread, I'm afraid there will be no human habitation for dozens of miles by then." Li Jianxin said, cupping his hands in front of the sloppy Taoist priest.

"Of course I will. But you don't have to worry, the level of the person inside is even higher than mine, but it is not easy to prepare medicine for this disease, and this kind of medicine does not grow in this place. Although the person said that the method is better than mine Gao, I changed a prescription, but without that blind medicine, the effect is still much worse after all. I can only hang these people's lives and prevent their illness from getting worse, but whether they can survive it depends on God's instructions. I won't give you a chance." The sloppy Taoist rarely spoke a long sentence.

"That's right. Although Niubi is not very reliable in martial arts, he still has good medical skills. You don't have to worry too much." It was the wine and meat monk who said with a wink at Li Jianxin with a smile.

"Go in and know." The sloppy Taoist said with a smile.

"That's right, if you go in, you'll know." Li Jianxin walked to the houses of the Zhao family, and a group of people tied the horses to the stone lions at the door, and were about to enter, but they found those people who were queuing up. Cast an angry look at them.

"Everyone misunderstood, we just came here to find someone." Li Jianxin also knew that the sudden "queue-jumping behavior" of his group had aroused public outrage, so he quickly explained.

But he didn't explain it until it was okay, but once he explained it, it got worse. "Who are you looking for? There is no one you are looking for here. Go out and don't hinder our medical treatment." It was a tall and thin farmer who waved to Li Jianxin and others and said, not caring at all about the weapons of Li Jianxin and others.

"That's right, that's right, there's another group of guys who came to look for the miracle doctor, we can't let them snatch the miracle doctor away." There were a few echoing voices from the crowd.

"You misunderstood." Li Jianxin wanted to explain again, but was interrupted by the tall and thin man, who said loudly: "Misunderstanding? What did we misunderstand? You high-ranking sons and elders, why do you care about us?" The life and death of these mud legs, if you hadn't come to the miracle doctor again and again, we would have been cured a long time ago."

"What's the noise? What's the noise?" But a familiar voice came to Li Jianxin. It turned out to be Wang Jin who was busy inside. Hearing the noise outside the door, he quickly came over to take a look. He thought it was somewhere else. Some unsighted guys came to bother the miracle doctor.

When the farmer saw Wang Jin coming out to take charge, he quickly pointed at Li Jianxin and said, "Brother Jin'er, you came just in time, but they said they were here to find the miracle doctor." Wang Jin followed the farmer's hand and couldn't help but burst into tears. His eyes were filled with tears. He had not seen this familiar face for more than half a month.His heart was already full of self-blame, blaming himself for not being able to help when it was time to help. Later, Lao Cao and the others returned to the capital to ask for help.

He and Tang Bo stayed, but unexpectedly there was a plague in this small town, so Wang Jin stayed to help, but met a wandering Taoist priest, and now he is fighting under the hands of the genius doctor.Every day, he was the first to wake up and the last to sleep. He rushed to do all the dirty and hard work, just wanting to let his exhaustion ease the guilt in his heart.

"Long time no see." Li Jianxin looked at Wang Jin with a smile, but was suddenly hugged by Wang Jin, "Brother Jianxin, I... thought I would never see you again." Wang Jin hugged Li Jianxin and said.

Seeing Wang Jin's excitement, Li Jianxin was about to say some jokes to adjust the atmosphere, but felt that the clothes on his shoulders were wet with two hot tears. She touched Wang Jin's back and said softly, "It's okay, am I not coming back?" He also gave Wang Jin a big hug.

When the farmer saw Wang Jin hugging Li Jianxin, he knew that he had misunderstood, and couldn't help being a little embarrassed, but he was also straightforward, so he just apologized to Li Jianxin: "We misunderstood before, I didn't know you belonged to Brother Jin'er My friend, I'm sorry." As he said that, he cupped his hands at Li Jianxin and smiled embarrassingly.

"It's okay, it's okay." Li Jianxin said two things in a row, one was to the farmer, and the other was to Wang Jin.

Wang Jin hugged Li Jianxin for a while. Li Jianxin also noticed that the people around him looked at him and Wang Jin more and more strangely, especially the eyes of the one-armed old man behind him. He couldn't help but think of the Ming and Qing Dynasties when Longyang's wind was the most powerful. When he was in full swing, he couldn't help but patted Wang Jin on the shoulder and said, "Okay, stop hugging me, there are a lot of people watching."

Only then did Wang Jin notice something was wrong, and quickly let go of Li Jianxin's hand, wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes, then turned around and said to the farmer: "This is my elder brother, Li Jianxin, he is here to look for me, You were mistaken before."

"I'm really sorry, we misunderstood." The farmer and others apologized again, but Li Jianxin just waved his hands and said he didn't care.

"By the way, brother Jianxin, you don't know who I met here." It was Wang Jin who said with a smile to Li Jianxin.
