Chapter 3 Poisoning

"Good boy, drink this bowl of medicine."

The genius doctor stood in front of me, holding a steaming bowl of traditional Chinese medicine in his hand. The taste of this medicine is not bitter, but rather fragrant. I have understood the properties of traditional Chinese medicine quite well in the past three years, and I have never seen such medicine. man of.

It has been more than three days since I woke up from the coma. These days, the miracle doctor who kidnapped me has been making me drink all kinds of medicine, saying that it is for strengthening the body, nourishing the intestines and warming the stomach. Not very good, so I drank the medicine he gave me dubiously.

I think that even if I refuse to drink the medicine, which is not according to his wishes, he will find a way to make me drink it. The worst result is that I will be forced to drink the medicine. Instead of doing that, I might as well be honest. Let's see what kind of medicine is sold in this genius doctor's gourd.

"How is the old man's illness?"

When I woke up on the first day, I secretly asked Xiaosi while the genius doctor was away. They kidnapped me in such a hurry. I didn’t have time to feed the old man the medicine, and I didn’t see the old man recovering from his illness. I don't know if the old man can go to the ground now, and Niu Ahu. I haven't explained it clearly to him. I don't know if he will blame me for leaving without saying goodbye. I seem to have a lot of things that I haven't done, and there are still many things I didn't say anything, and I didn't take my salary, so I just left, it was too hasty.

"He is very good. After drinking the medicine, he no longer suffers from pain and sleeps soundly."

Xiaosi said with a smile, I felt better after listening to his words. Even if I knew he was lying to me, I thought the old man had probably left. For the old man, this was a good thing.

The old man is more than 70 years old, and his hands and feet are not easy to work on weekdays. When he was sick, he couldn't sleep well every night. To avoid suffering from old age and sickness.

"Where's Niu Ahu?"

The only thing I worry about is this idiot. He is only 13 years old. Apart from being sick, he has never experienced any dangers in the world. From now on, he will be alone. How will he live?

"It's also very good. We slept soundly when we left, and we will probably wake up before dawn."

This Xiaosi looks only eighteen or nineteen years old. No matter what time, he always has a smile on his face, like a smiling tiger. I don't like to communicate with this kind of person. I always feel that this kind of person speaks in a misleading way. , He will weave a lie and jump into it when you don't realize it, and by the time you react, it's too late.

After I woke up, the miracle doctor told me straight to the point the reason for kidnapping me, and I didn't even have time to ask him back.

"The first time I saw you, I knew that you would be the one who could inherit my mantle, so I couldn't wait to bring you back. You also know that I am old, and maybe one day I will take over Going to the west of Hexi, I searched and searched for most of my life, but I still couldn't find the right person. It just so happened that I met you in Jinling City, which can be regarded as a kind of fate."

In this way, I became the personal disciple of the genius doctor. For others, this is really the supreme honor, but I don’t want to do this. It was an expedient policy to agree to be his apprentice at the beginning, and I don’t know when I will get tired of this genius doctor. Me, let me go earlier.

The genius doctor said: "If you want to become a genius doctor like me, you must be familiar with the effects of various medicines. Just reading books is not enough, you have to taste it yourself to be unforgettable."

I said, "How to taste it for yourself?"

Is it possible to sing all the medicinal materials?Isn't that the same as Shennong tasting all kinds of herbs?

The genius doctor said: "Enter the entrance, enter the eyes, enter the heart, know the root and the bottom, you have to taste it yourself."

After getting along for a period of time, I found that this miracle doctor really has some skills. He can blurt out the usage, dosage and function of medicinal materials without any difference. Moreover, his pursuit and enthusiasm for medical skills are really unprecedented.

I am learning medical skills from him here, and I am always absent-minded. I have been slapped on the palm countless times, and I have knelt down countless times. The daily task is to take medicine, drink medicine, smell medicine, and distinguish medicine. It is very boring.

As winter is approaching, the genius doctor suddenly said that he would take me up the mountain to collect herbs.

"Why don't you go to the pharmacy to buy it? There was a light snowfall last night, and the mountain road is difficult to walk. What if you fall?"

I actually don’t really want to go. We live on the hillside, far away from people’s habitation and no neighbors. It takes at least an hour to get to the nearest town, but there are quite a few people who come here every day. I feel that such a semi-reclusive doctor is more capable, so I don't hesitate to come from afar.

"The name of this county is Shaoyang County, and the name of this mountain is Shaoyang Mountain. The Shaoyang Temple at the top of Shaoyang Mountain, the mountain is high and the road is dangerous."

Smiling Tiger often hums this poem in the yard.

"Actually, there is no Shaoyang Temple on the top of the mountain. It is just a fantasy born out of thin air by the people because they can't conquer Shaoyang Mountain. However, there are indeed good things on the mountain, which are all kinds of precious herbs. That's why Mr. Ge chose to settle here. Then I have never been to the mountain, you are lucky."

Smiling Tiger's tone was eccentric, and he didn't know whether it was jealousy or gloating.

"Don't curse me, I'm old, I can't bear to fall, and if I don't go now, I won't be able to go when the mountain is covered by heavy snow." The genius doctor knocked on my head.

"Then can't we go again next year?" I asked while covering my aching head from the beating.

"Next year? It's fine, but the plan can't keep up with the changes. If something goes wrong, you will miss the opportunity."

In short, I went there in the end, and if I didn’t go, I couldn’t do it. The genius doctor was determined to let me see all kinds of herbs on the mountain with my own eyes.

So the two of us set off with our backpacks on our backs, and the smiling tiger was left to watch the house.

We walked along the mountain road for a quarter of an hour, and the road became difficult to walk. Even the road ahead was probably stepped on by people.

The trees and grass on the mountain have faded, and they are lying on the ground withered and weak, and there are still patches of snowflakes that have not yet melted.

Along the way, the genius doctor told me the names of these trees, the names of the grasses, and their efficacy. This time I remembered some, and it was indeed easier than just reading a book.

Ignoring these withered trees, the genius doctor walked straight forward, as if he had already touched the whole place, and he knew exactly where the medicinal materials he was looking for were.

Finally, in the depths of a yellow and white mountain, I saw a green tree exuding vitality.

"Here we are, come with me."

I followed the miracle doctor to the tree, and the miracle doctor took out a small sickle from the back basket and began to cut the branches above.

I also took out the sickle and hacked together with the genius doctor, but because of the wrong way of chopping, I was scolded by the genius doctor instead. After the genius doctor's guidance, I gradually got on the road.

On the way back, the miraculous doctor told me about the planting method of herbs and the best season for picking them. Suddenly, his back bent and he almost fell down the mountain.

"You crow's mouth, you almost killed the old man." The genius doctor patted his chest with lingering fear.

Fortunately, everything went smoothly on the road ahead, and nothing happened.

Winter comes and spring comes, everything recovers.

On this day, the miracle doctor came down from the mountain, very happy, holding a handful of unknown grass in his hand.

"It's probably because I discovered a new herbal medicine, so I'm so excited."

Smiling Tiger explained next to me.

"Shaoyang, come quickly."

The miraculous doctor shouted the name of Smiling Tiger, and Smiling Tiger replied "Come" with a smile, got up and walked to the kitchen.

I was a little curious, so I followed.

The genius doctor looked crazy, and divided the herbs into several batches, and the smiling tiger was helping him deal with them.

After a few days, these herbs were boiled into medicine, and the genius doctor called Xiaomianhu over again, actually asking Xiaomianhu to test the medicine.

"It's not the first time anyway, I'm used to it."

Xiao Mianhu smiled and said to me afterwards, I seem to understand why he always laughs, he must have taken some medicine accidentally, so he got a disease, a disease that can only laugh all his life, it would be great if he could find an antidote, Or just find the kind of medicine that can make people cry once, so that the disease of the smiling tiger can be cured.

The genius doctor has been a little busy recently, maybe because spring is here, and there are a lot of sick people, so the genius doctor is often not at home, and the smiling tiger and the genius doctor also go to treat others together.

I was bored by myself, so I kept running up the mountain. After three months of guidance from a miracle doctor, I had almost memorized which plants on the mountain should not be touched, and which grasses were poisonous.

I want to find a medicine that can save the smiling tiger, and I will definitely find it.After half a month of hard work, I finally found a grass that I had never seen before. When the doctor came back, I gave this herb to the doctor. laughing out loud.

"Okay, okay, you are worthy of being my apprentice. As a teacher, I know that you will definitely inherit my mantle and benefit the people. I really read it right, hahahaha."

I'm too lazy to correct the fact that I'm not his apprentice. I'm looking forward to the efficacy of this herbal medicine, whether it can cure the disease of the smiling tiger.

When the bowl of medicine was sent to Smiling Tiger by the miracle doctor, I reached out and took it.

"Let me come."

The smiling tiger showed surprise, and the genius doctor hesitated to speak, but I was fast, and before they had time to stop me, I drank the medicine in one gulp, it was really painful.

I think I succeeded, because people really cry after drinking this medicine.

My arms were covered in red spots, and I can imagine my face wouldn't be much better either.

The genius doctor sat on the edge of the bed and looked at me with a sad face. I think I must be ugly at the moment, otherwise why would the genius doctor cry, and he has a smiling face, but he doesn’t smile anymore. Sure enough, smiling is more suitable for him. Now the expression of a dead father is really ugly.

I'm probably going to die, and die young. People say that life and death depend on fate and wealth. I always think it makes sense, but unfortunately I haven't found my family yet.

"It's a pity, it's a pity, but you can be considered as a contribution to the people. This kind of grass will be named after you in the future, so that people will know that it is because of you that we know it is poisonous."

The miraculous doctor said this to me before I left.

I don't know what the genius doctor was thinking, but before I was out of breath, he let the smiling tiger drive me to the mass grave in an ox cart.

"By the time you get to the mass grave, he's almost dead. Go ahead and let me be sad for a while."

In this way, my fate was once again tricked, which is really gratifying.

It's funny that Mianhu still has a little conscience, if it wasn't for me, he would be the one who died, but I found the medicine, even if he died, I was the one who killed him, so instead of doing this, it's better to let me die cleanly, That way you don't have to be charged with murder.

He put me gently on the side of the mass grave. Seeing that I was not dead, he wanted to strangle me and send me on the road, but he held back.

"You... do it yourself."

After the smiling tiger left, I was the only half-dead living person in the entire mass grave, and a group of corpses that were too late to cover up.

The bright moon is in the sky, sprinkled on my body through the branches. In this situation, I suddenly want to drink a jug of wine. Li Bai has a poem: "A jug of wine among the flowers, drinking alone without a blind date. Raise your glass to invite the moon, and the shadows will be formed." Three people."

My surname is Hua, and I don’t have any relatives at this moment, only a bright moon in the sky, and the shadow below me. Unfortunately, I have never drank wine until now. I don’t know what wine tastes like. So many people drink away their worries.

Perhaps the only ones who witnessed my death process were the bright moon and the shadow.

"I heard that there are mass graves ahead, are you afraid?"

Suddenly, a voice came from not far away.

"Not afraid."

"Then let's go from here. This road is short, and it saves a long detour. I really want to go to the inn quickly and have a good rest."

The sound was getting closer and closer, and I was thinking why I wasn't dead yet. If I made a sudden sound after a while, I don't know if it would scare the two people who broke into the mass grave at night.
