Datang: Huchi served as a bodyguard, but refused to enter the court as an official

Liu Bai smiled lightly, did not speak, and waited quietly for Li Shizhen to come.

When the little old man did anything, he took his time.

When treating the Taishanghuang back then, others were dying of anxiety, but he always walked slowly from the gate of the palace to Tai'an Palace, which took less than half an hour.

Only when Liu Bai gave the order, the little old man would be a little faster.

However, the two of them waited for almost an incense stick in the hall.

As the saying goes, there is no first in literature, and there is no second in martial arts.

Even a medical master who has cultivated his body and mind for many years, he doesn't want to be compared to others.

Of course, Li Shizhen had also heard of Sun Simiao's name, and wanted to see for a long time whether it was her own superb medical skills or Sun Simiao's superiority.

As soon as he entered, Li Shizhen saluted Liu Bai, then his eyes fell on Sun Simiao, and he never left.

Liu Bai stood up, "You two chat slowly, Liu still has some things to deal with!"

He didn't want to wade into this muddy water.

From the moment Sun Simiao entered, Liu Bai knew that he was here to compete with Li Shizhen.

The two big cows competed in medical skills, and if they played with poison, it would be a lot of fun.

It's better to stay away

He returned to the yard, sat under the wintersweet tree, and continued to enjoy the tranquility.

After sitting for about half an hour, Sun Simiao and Li Shizhen came out together. Judging by their appearance, there seemed to be no conflict.

"Thank you Mr. Liu for your hospitality. See you in Jingyang County in two days!"

Sun Simiao slapped him, turned around and left.

Liu Bai was confused, when Li Shizhen sat down abruptly, blowing his beard and staring, and said, "I'm so mad!"

Not knowing what happened in the hall just now, Li Shizhen was trembling with anger.

Liu Bai was speechless for a while.

It was the first time he saw Li Shizhen and was so angry.

When meeting an opponent, the so-called energy-raising skills become bullshit.

Liu Bai poured him a cup of tea, "What were you talking about just now?"

Li Shizhen poured a whole cup of tea into it, and said with a gloomy face, "This guy is going to fight this old man!"

Liu Bai shrugged his shoulders, and he knew that Sun Simiao's visit must not be a good thing.

Don't get too early!

There has never been a saint in this world.

Some so-called high-minded people just don't love money, which doesn't mean they don't love other things.

People like Li Shizhen and Sun Simiao don't even care about their reputations.

Perhaps, the only thing that can make them pay more attention is the level of medical skills.

This is also their obsession as medical masters.

"What kind of fighting?"

Li Shizhen took a deep breath and said, "Two days later, the two of us will set up a stall in Jingyang County to receive medical consultations. We only look at difficult and miscellaneous diseases. When the time comes, we will see who has the better means!"

He stood up abruptly, bowed to Liu Bai, and said: "This subordinate should have obtained the young master's permission to compete with that Sun Simiao, but in my heart, I really can't swallow this breath, and I hope the young master will forgive me!"

Liu Bai waved his hand and told Li Shizhen to sit down.

He didn't think it was a big deal, but it was just a competition.

However, he felt that something was wrong with this matter.

Regardless of historical records or folk rumors, there is nothing to say about Sun Simiao's character.

It stands to reason that even if he wanted to compete with Li Shizhen, there was no need to go to such lengths.

Unless he has other purposes.

He didn't ask Li Shizhen.

The little old man's medical skills are unparalleled in the world, but he is still far behind in fighting others.

"You don't need to worry about this matter, just wait for the competition two days later!"

During the former Sui Dynasty, Sun Simiao was honored as the 'King of Medicine'.

The people of Chang'an City raised money spontaneously to build a Medicine King Temple for him in a hill outside Chang'an City.

The scale of this Taoist temple is small, but it is better than quiet, no one disturbs.

But today, there are cars and horses running around outside the Yaowang Guanwai, and it is overcrowded!

The people who came were all Taoist priests, and they were not too young.

Sun Simiao was originally a member of the Taoist sect, and his seniority was frighteningly high.

Even Yuan Tiangang, the leader of the Taoist sect, has to call him Master Uncle.

Hearing that he has returned to Chang'an, the whole Taoist sect will naturally come to visit him.

In the Taoist temple, Sun Simiao sat cross-legged in front of the statue of Laojun, silently reciting scriptures.

Behind him, Yuan Tiangang put on a bitter face, "Old ancestor, the relationship between this disciple and Mr. Liu Bailiu is not bad, my Daoist sect can have today's prosperity, thanks to him, why do you bother him for no reason? "

He talked nonsense for a long time, but Sun Simiao ignored him at all, but the speed of reciting scriptures was getting faster and faster.

Presumably, the mood is not calm.

After a cup of tea, Sun Simiao opened his eyes, "Are you finished?"

Yuan Tiangang sighed, and said: "Those who offend Liu Bai will not end well. You have created a big trouble for this disciple."

Sun Simiao stood up slowly, a smile suddenly appeared on his clear face.

"Do you think the old man will definitely win?"

Chapter 161: Where did the old man get the money for Sun Simiao's bad temper?

Around this period of time, Yuan Tiangang always ran to Liu's house when he had nothing to do.

After buying a meteorite from Liu Bai, the Taoist sect made a big fuss, and there were many more believers.

After a long time, the heat subsided a lot, so Yuan Tiangang put his idea on the head of the Royal Academy.

You know, the students in the Royal Academy can be said to be the mainstay of the future court.

If they all have a good impression of Taoism, then Yuan Tiangang can rest on the credit book and sit back and relax.

Liu Bai didn't think much of it, Taoism has made great achievements in calculation and astronomy, if you can find a few old Taoist priests to teach miscellaneous subjects, it can also enrich the students' after-school life.

However, the matter of the Taoist school entering the academy was strongly opposed by Wang Ji.

No matter how powerful Yuan Tiangang was, he still couldn't offend Wang Ji, so he had to give up.

However, it was precisely because he kept running to the Liu family that he truly understood how terrifying those people in the Liu family were.

Especially Li Shizhen!

That medical skill is against the sky!

After all, he really lacked confidence in Sun Simiao

If they lose, the Taoist sect will lose face, and Sun Simiao's 'myth' will be considered to be over.

Even if you win, so what?

Offending Liu Bai for no reason is even more terrifying than the rise of Buddhism!

In other words, comparing medical skills with Li Shizhen is completely a thankless task, and maybe the Taoist sect will be unlucky because of it!

Yuan Tiangang faltered for a long time, but he didn't dare to say what was in his heart, so he could only smile wryly, "My old ancestor, the Taoist sect has only been stable for a few days, so you don't want to make trouble for your disciples anymore."

Unceremoniously, Sun Simiao slapped Yuan Tiangang on top of his head.

His hands were strong, Yuan Tiangang gasped in pain, and his face became even more bitter.

Thinking of himself as a dignified Taoist leader, not to mention his high position and authority, he is still considered a big boss, but Sun Simiao treated himself like a child and taught him a lesson.

"What do you know?!"

Sun Simiao glared at him.

"Of course there is a more important reason for the competition between the old man and Li Shizhen!"

He turned his back, looked at the statue of the old gentleman, and said leisurely: "Although my Central Plains has a vast land and rich resources, there are not many medicinal materials. In the pre-Han period, there are countless medical classics, and there are countless medicinal materials in the Western Regions, which can treat A rare disease!"

As he spoke, he sighed, and said: "Unfortunately, after the Han Dynasty, the land of the Western Regions was completely lost. Even if our army marched into the Western Regions, no one would be able to help the old man pick some medicinal materials and come back. He is qualified and has the courage to enter The only caravan in the Western Regions is the Liu family!"

He turned around again, and said to Yuan Tiangang: "That's why this old man wants to fight Li Shizhen. If this old man wins, he can ask Liu Bai to send a caravan to the Western Regions to search for medicine!"

Yuan Tiangang was taken aback when he heard that.

He didn't expect that this old ancestor was so far-sighted.

"Old ancestor, this disciple thinks that as long as the money is sufficient, it is not too difficult to ask the Liu family to send a caravan to search for medicine."

According to his experience in dealing with Liu Bai, as long as he has money, everything can be done easily.

Sun Simiao stared again.

"Where did the old man get the money?!"

"My disciple has it! As long as the ancestor needs it, the disciple will go to prepare silver taels. I dare not say how many, there are still tens of thousands of coins!"

Sun Simiao looked at Yuan Tiangang in disgust, and waved his hands like chasing flies.

"It's obviously a great merit, but what you said is full of money, leave quickly, the old man doesn't want to see you again!"

Knowing Sun Simiao's temper, Yuan Tiangang didn't dare to say anything more, so he withdrew awkwardly.

"Have you heard? Two genius doctors are going to compete in Jingyang!"

"Which two divine doctors?"

"Of course it's Immortal Sun and Doctor Li from the Liu family!"

"I heard that they are going to set up a medical stall in Jingyang County, specializing in treating difficult and miscellaneous diseases!"

""

The news that the two genius doctors were going to compete came from nowhere, and it spread throughout the streets and alleys in just one day.

Not only Jingyang County, but even the surrounding counties and Chang'an City are well known to everyone!

All of a sudden, those who had intractable diseases and had nowhere to seek medical treatment rushed to Jingyang County like crazy.

The next day, people from Wuyang and Wuyang poured into Jingyang County, filling up all the inns, even on the streets, many people slept in the open.

The same thing has happened more than once.

The Jingyang county lieutenant, who was acting as the county magistrate temporarily, handled it with ease.

Soon, every street corner was guarded by yamen guards, fearing that there would be trouble.

The county captain also specially opened a porridge shop, so that the poor who came from afar can have a sip of hot porridge.

Liu family mansion!

After arranging the affairs in the yamen, the county lieutenant, Old Wei, ran to the Liu family mansion and asked Liu Bai what he meant.

He has been working under Han Tong for a long time, and he is more familiar with the Liu family.

Knowing that at this time in the afternoon, Liu Bai was usually practicing calligraphy in the study, so he ran to the gate and chatted with the porter.

No way, everyone in the Liu family has extraordinary identities. Although he is a majestic county lieutenant, the only person with similar identities to him is Old Wu, the concierge.

"Brother Wu, before Master Han left, he specially asked me to come a few more times, and even personally ordered me to greet you!"

The concierge old Wu said with a smile: "Brother Han has a heart. I heard that he is now the Minister of the Ministry of Industry. We are so envious!"

As he said that, Old Wu, the concierge, entered the room and poured a cup of tea, and handed it to Old Wei.

Old Wei sighed, and said, "Yes, Mr. Han went to Chang'an, and he soared to the sky, leaving my brother and me to suffer in Jingyang County."
