Aggrieved Fish Sprite

Mo Li didn't follow Liu Chang and the others directly, he left the town and went to Ma County without hesitation.

——Liu Chang's illness is dangerous, the doctors in Xiaohe Town must be helpless, and the soldiers can only send him to the county seat.

No matter what the reason is, now that something happened to the Shangguan, it is difficult for the soldiers to explain when they go back, so they can only go to the local yamen, so that the Chen family can be held accountable, and Liu Chang can get timely treatment.

However, the parent officer in Ma County is a county magistrate with no hands. He ignores official duties and does not go to the government all day long. Now that he sees this kind of hot potato, he must be pretending to be deaf and dumb.

Mo Li memorized the map of Pingzhou in his mind, and he arrived at the county seat of Ma County just after noon. The two soldiers guarding the gate were idle and playing dice, lazily.Looking at their posture, Mo Li knew that Liu Chang and the others hadn't come yet, he hadn't entered the city gate, and walked a long way along the city wall, and then looked around with no one around.

Over the wall.

The city wall in Ma County is very high, not to guard against bandits, but to keep out the wind.

Ma County is at the northernmost tip of Pingzhou, and the terrain happens to be a gap in the mountain. Every year after winter, there will be four months of northwest wind blowing here, and people with weak bones can't stand it.Since the previous dynasties, no one has been willing to come here to serve. The magistrate of Ma County is still convicted and demoted here.

The city wall keeps out the wind, and many houses are built next to the wall.

The ink carp landed on a row of blue tiles, he straightened the robe he was wearing outside, and landed silently in the alley.

When there is nothing to do in winter, the streets of Ma County are always empty. Mo Li couldn't find someone to ask for directions. He walked around three times before he found the market.

When it comes to pharmacies, most of them are next to the Chenghuang Temple or the market.

Because there are many people here, the road is easy to walk.

Zhushan County is not an exception, because the county seat is too small and there is no decent market. On the first day of every month, there is an open space in front of the county government office where stalls can be set up. Dr. Mo's pharmacy barely touches the edge of the market.

This is different in Maxian County. The nearby street is full of big shops. On a cold day, you can still see a few green cloth sedan chairs parked at the gates of the cloth village and the silver building, but there are no people. The porters who carry the sedan chairs must go Where do you hide from the wind?

The flags of the medicine shop swayed in the wind.

The ink carp pushed open the door, and a strong smell of medicinal herbs rushed towards him.

Behind the counter, an old man in a brown padded robe was leading his disciples to fetch medicine, and he didn't turn his head when he heard the door knock.

The waiter came over swiftly. He was originally going to help the guests and then help the guests to pat off the snow.But Mo Li was dressed in such a way that he was a little dazed. People in Ma County went out with thick cotton jackets and big cloaks, and they wanted to wrap them from top to bottom. This one seemed to be staying in the house all the time, and didn't come in from outside at all.

"Are you seeing a doctor or taking medicine?"

Mo Li nodded to the servant, and said softly, "Look for someone."

Without waiting for the other party's reaction, Doctor Mo directly shouted at the old gentleman's back: "Doctor He."

Dr. He was checking to see if the amount of medicine his apprentice had grasped was accurate. When he heard the greeting, he looked back in doubt, and a surprised expression suddenly appeared on his face. He hurriedly helped the wooden ladder down, and said in surprise, "Doctor Mo? It's the cold winter months. How did you get to Ma County?"

As he said that, he immediately ordered the servants to pour hot tea, and called the disciples behind to pick up the ink carp's luggage.

There are not many clothes in Moli's luggage, mainly the medicine box.

Dr. He welcomed him into the back hall, and then asked in detail: "I heard that the road to Jiguanshan and Jimaoshan was blocked by heavy snow. After Dr. Mo's visit, he was blocked by the wind and snow?"

Mo Li has also treated patients outside Zhushan County. Although he has never been to Ma County, he knows Dr. He.Hearing Dr. He's thoughts now, he didn't correct him, and acquiesced without hesitation.

"Hey, that's true!" Dr. He kept sighing, "It's snowing this year, and the old saying is true!"

Mo Li paused the hand holding the teacup, and asked doubtfully, "What does Doctor He mean by that?"

"Why, you haven't heard?" Dr. He looked at Mo Li in surprise, and then thought that the other party was very good at medicine at a young age. He usually went to the mountains to collect medicine or go out to see a doctor. He was not as leisurely as himself, and Zhushan County The news is blocked again, and the ink carp may really not know the big news.

Dr. He got closer and whispered: "The news from Pingzhou Mansion said that a gold mine was discovered in the mountains to the south. The local powerful family secretly concealed it and dug it privately. This autumn, the matter was revealed. The crime of decapitation! The owner of that family killed all the slaves who opened the mine and buried all the traces in the mountain. Things got worse and worse. As the old saying goes, if the snow falls too hard, there will be injustice!"

When Mo Li heard the word "mining", his heart skipped a beat.

Then he felt that it was not so coincidental, it is impossible for every mountain to have dragon veins - Jimao Mountain has it, but Jiguan Mountain does not, does it?

"Let's not talk about that, I have one more thing to do when I come here." Mo Li suppressed the idea of ​​asking about the Pingzhou Mine, because time was running out.Although he used lightness skills to hurry, Xiaohe Town is not too far from Maxian County, and Liu Chang and others will arrive in the county soon.

"Oh? What's wrong with Dr. Mo, I'm sure I can help..."

"No, I'm actually here to help Dr. He."

Mo Li omitted the grievances between Mrs. Xue and Liu Chang, and only said that he passed by Xiaohe Town and saw a sixth-rank military officer being carried out of a mansion.

"I happened to be standing close, and I could see clearly that the man suffered a blow to his chest. Originally, it only hurt his internal organs and needed to be recuperated. But after he was injured, he was furious, like adding fuel to the fire, and it was out of control. .”

Doctor He turned pale when he heard this. He is the best doctor in Ma County, and a sixth-rank official who may die at any time is about to come to his door!

Mo Li sighed. In fact, in Ma County, even if Dr. He can't cure Liu Chang, nothing will happen. But Mrs. Xue doesn't know Dr. He, and doesn't know that Dr. He suffered a disaster in his early years——Dr. He He treated an old lady, but the patient was terminally ill and there was no cure. The official was furious, and immediately put all the doctors who had seen the doctor into prison.

Dr. He, who managed to escape with his life, has since avoided the family members and people in the government who are dying.

"Doctor He, there is no need to be alarmed. I came here just for this." Mo Li looked at Doctor He and hinted, "If the heart is damaged, you can still suffer for another day or two. It’s just anger.”

Doctor He regained his composure, but was still flustered.

Mo Li took advantage of the situation and said, "If Dr. He doesn't dislike it, I would like to be the doctor of the pharmacy temporarily."

Dr. He was overjoyed, and then he watched in a daze as Mo Li found a piece of Qingdai from his luggage, and painted on his face.

"This is?"

"If they met in Xiaohe Town once, if they were recognized, it would be troublesome."

Mo Li thickened his eyebrows, found some black medicinal powder, and added it to his face to smudge his face, and his complexion immediately became rough and slightly dark.He asked Dr. He for a thick padded jacket to wear on his body, and stuffed a few pieces of cloth towels around his waist and abdomen. When he stood up, his posture changed, his back was slightly hunched, and his appearance seemed to change in a blink of an eye.

Dr. He was dumbfounded, and asked repeatedly if this was the legendary disguise technique?

"A trivial trick, how can you call it a disguise." Mo Li took Dr. He's wolf fur hat and put it on. I wear it a lot in winter. If I lower my head deliberately, I might not be able to see clearly when I walk in the face The other person's appearance.

Suddenly there was a commotion outside.

"Where's the doctor? Where's the doctor here? Come out!"

"...so fast?" Dr. He gasped, gritted his teeth, and went out.

The soldiers found a sedan chair from nowhere, and now they helped someone to enter the door. Liu Chang's complexion was as golden as paper, with bloodshot eyes hanging from the corner of his mouth, as if he was on the verge of death.

Dr. He was so startled that his whole body became stiff, and his disciples saw the patient's face, and secretly screamed that something was wrong, and dared not go forward.

"The back hall, go to the back hall!" Dr. He regained his senses, opened his mouth and found a reason, "No matter how tight this place is, there is wind, go to the back hall!"

The soldiers pressed their sabers in their hands and carried him into the back hall without leaving.

There were so many people pouring into the pharmacy at once, and it was a mess. When the servants saw the ink carp, they didn't realize who it was.

Dr. He turned sideways to block part of the soldier's gaze, allowing Mo Li to touch Liu Chang's other hand.

Mo Li took a pulse and found that Liu Chang had been stagnant in his heart on weekdays, hurting his liver and lungs, and now he had an attack together, which was more dangerous than expected.In fact, the ink carp only hit Liu Chang on the bridge of the nose, and it was not life-threatening, and Chen Zhong's hit would not have killed anyone. It is a mistake to say it now, but there is something wrong with it.

The ink carp mingled to Liu Chang's left hand again, and continued to take the pulse.

——In Liu Chang's body, there is actually a spiritual power, which is repairing the damaged heart.

This spiritual power is very weak, it seems to be lurking in the veins, and it will be stimulated only when it encounters danger.

Mo Li put down his hand in a complicated mood. Liu Chang may have eaten a elixir, and he still has spirituality, but as a mortal, he can't fully use it at all, and only got a small part of the elixir essence.

Plants with spirituality are not easy to come by!Being eaten like this, Mo Carp felt very distressed.

However, although Liu Chang is rude, his crime does not entail death. In this case, whether he lives or dies depends on the destiny!

Mo Li retreated quietly, found a piece of paper and wrote a prescription, Doctor He over there also bit the bullet and wrote a prescription, and ordered the medicine to be taken immediately.The soldiers held up their knives and asked Dr. He to decoct the medicine himself. The people in the pharmacy were very unconvinced and quarreled with them. Dr. He took the opportunity to change the prescription with Mo Li, and took the medicine according to the prescription.

After drinking the soup, Liu Chang woke up leisurely.

Dr. He said a lot of taboos with a straight face, and repeatedly emphasized not to get angry.

Liu Chang's face turns pale when he thinks about what happened today - just thinking about it makes his heart ache.

"If you see it, don't get angry!" Dr. He lamented the efficacy of this prescription in his heart, while looking at Liu Chang, he couldn't help asking, "What precious medicinal materials has this official taken? For example, the formed ginseng and Shouwu ..."

After all, the pulse condition is so obvious that Dr. He can also detect it.

Liu Chang was cherishing his life at the moment and didn't dare to hide it, so he said casually: "A month ago, because I was lost in the mountains and lacked food, when digging up the stems and eating, it seemed that I ate some sealwort."

Dr. He felt a little more relaxed now, thinking that Liu Chang should not die.

Liu Chang himself thought the same way, and the soldiers were all happy to see that besides turning pale, he seemed to be walking around when he got out of bed.

——As long as Liu Chang returns to the army alive, the rest of the matter has nothing to do with them, regardless of whether he has the root cause of the disease or whether the medicine is good or not.

When Liu Chang heard his subordinates urging him to go back, he felt unwilling, but when he thought about it, his chest felt tight, and he could only say bitterly, "Forgive this bastard for now, let's go back to Mount Silang."

After the people left, Dr. He entered the back hall, and seeing the ink carp restored to its original appearance, he hesitated to speak.

"Doctor He, what's the matter?"

"I heard they mentioned Mount Silang." Dr. He said in a low voice, "That is the place where there are rumors of gold mines and ghosts!"

Mo Li paused, and then he realized that he couldn't get out of the pass, and he couldn't go to Tianshan and Kunlun. He was afraid that he would follow Liu Chang and others all the way to those mountains to see.
