Enter the kitchen

"I am." Lu Shiyi's uneasiness really came true, and the man's eyes lit up when he heard this.It's just that when I saw their faces clearly, I was stunned, hesitant in my heart: "This is not a doctor, he is clearly a son who has left home to travel around the mountains and rivers."

His hesitation and astonishment were only for a moment, and when he thought of his relatives who were still lying on the bed and couldn't care less, he said anxiously: "Come and see with me." Obviously he was a farmer who was much taller and stronger than himself, but Lu Shiyi He heard the choking in his words.

"Speak slowly." Lu Shiyi's voice seemed to be filled with magic power. The farmer paused, calmed down a little, and then said: "This morning, my mother-in-law suddenly had a high fever, and the two children who were at home just now passed out. , I don't know what to do." The farmer was completely confused: "Lu Chang said that there is a doctor at home, so I... I ran over."

"I..." Just as Lu Shiyi was about to speak to comfort him, several people came running outside the door one after another, all of them looked flustered, and they all looked for them in a hurry after hearing that there was a doctor in the Lu family.

The chattering voices exploded in Lu Shiyi's ears, and even he was confused for a moment.

"Quiet!" The old voice sounded in everyone's ears. It wasn't loud, but it miraculously silenced the crowd, and the village chief came out more and more: "The village is probably infected with the plague." His muddy voice His eyes swept over everyone, and he said slowly word by word.

And the villagers behind him all showed despair when they heard the word plague.

A doctor who passed by became the hope of the whole village. The village chief's old body was hunched, and his cloudy eyes looked directly at Lu Shiyi, as if he wanted to look into his eyes. After a while, he almost begged: "I beg you."

Looking at the familiar or unfamiliar faces in front of him, he really couldn't say a word of rejection.Everyone is afraid of death, and everyone has a desire for life, mortals are, monks are even more so.

"Send all patients with coma and fever to one place." Lu Shiyi said loudly, and then turned his attention to the village chief: "Is there a place to temporarily accommodate patients?"

"Go to the ancestral hall." The village chief replied immediately without thinking too long.

As soon as the two finished speaking, the whole Lujia Village began to get busy. No one in the Lu family was infected, and even Lu Shisan, who had a fever yesterday, was alive and kicking.Lu's father wanted to help, but Lu's mother stopped him. She is just a country woman with no great knowledge, and all she cares about is that her family is safe.

Seeing this, Lu Shiyi stopped the two of them, and handed him a masked veil in his hand: "Put this on and you'll be fine." The veil was washed with water mixed with spiritual essence, and it could temporarily resist illness.

The villagers moved very quickly, and all the patients were gathered in one place. It was not obvious that the patients were scattered everywhere, but now that they were gathered together, it was soon discovered that something was wrong.

"Although this plague is fierce, it is not incurable!" Lu Shiyi raised his voice, giving them a little confidence: "From now on, you must strictly abide by the rules I set, and everyone who enters must wear a Scarf, if you feel unwell, don’t hide it.”

"Don't worry, everyone, I will never let you die." Lu Shiyi stood on a high place, his tone was obviously gentle, but it carried a convincing power.Standing at a low place and looking up at him, Shu Mo felt that a certain part of his heart was beginning to take root.

"Brother, mother asked me to deliver meals to you." Lu Shisan had just recovered from a serious illness, and after Lu Shiyi confirmed that he would not be infected again, he took on the task of delivering meals.

Although he was ill, he had to take care of the work in the field, and the village chief had seen the world, and arranged the families properly so that Lujia Village did not become chaotic.It's just that he's old after all, and even after arranging everything, he developed a high fever.Originally, his family was unwilling to send him to the ancestral hall, but he insisted on it himself, so he was finally carried here.

The plague is just like what Lu Shiyi said. Although no one was cured, no one was infected again.He diluted the spiritual marrow into drinking water, but the effect was not good for mortals without spiritual roots, but fortunately the situation did not get worse.

Lu Ziqi didn't forget about them after he returned to the teacher's gate, and sent a letter saying that he had found the usage of Han Tieyi, and he would be able to open it on the next day when the dog eclipsed the moon.Although there are still a few years before the next Tiangou eclipse, they hope that Lu Shiyi can leave the mortal world sooner, and improving his strength is the most important thing.

The only connection between Lu Shiyi and them is probably Lujia Village, and now I feel mixed feelings.And on the second day after receiving their letter, Jianzong also sent news.

"Luoshuimen hopes that the disciples of the seven major sects will enter the cold iron secret realm together?" After they read it, the summons had already burned to ashes.

Lu Shiyi could hardly remember the face of the head of the Luoshuimen, and only vaguely remembered that he was mediocre and ordinary, with no major faults and no great achievements, but now he invites all the sects to enter the secret realm together, which is really unimaginable.

He thought for a while, but couldn't figure out why, so he could only temporarily put it aside: "The most urgent thing now is the plague."

The patients were gathered in the ancestral hall, and Lu Shiyi and Shu Mo also lived in the ancestral hall.The lights were like beans, illuminating the scene in the room dimly, and the two finally had a moment of leisure to discuss the plague.

"Patients infected with the plague don't have demon energy on them, so it doesn't seem to be the work of a demon cultivator." Lu Shiyi circled the room twice, but still had no clue: "It doesn't look like it was created by the demon world."

"Lu Shisan was the first to get sick in Lu's Village." Shu Mo raised his head and said softly: "He has spiritual roots." Lu Shisan, who had spiritual roots, was the first to get sick, and then the other villagers. They didn't have demonic or demonic aura, they just had a fever and fell into a coma, and now the number of mortals dying of the plague in Luodu is increasing day by day."

"This disease looks like a plague, but it's not!" Lu Shiyi continued: "More and more mortals start to have fever or coma without any symptoms, and it doesn't take long for them to gradually weaken, and the cycle repeats. Except for the one of infection , nothing else seems to match the plague."

"Then if the infection is fake, isn't it..." Lu Shiyi paused, Shu Mo nodded at him, and then he said in a daze: "This is not a plague, someone is absorbing the life of mortals. It's just that mortals don't know, and monks don't care about the mortal world." so that everyone thought it was a plague."

"Thirteen has a spiritual root, and his anger is more than ordinary people, and he has not started to practice, so he fell ill first." Lu Shiyi was stunned by his own guess: "There are not a few mortals who are infected with the plague these days. , who is it..."

"This matter can only be found out in Luodu." But now Shu Mo knows that he is worried about another thing: "Are you still going to let Lu Shisan choose by himself?"

"I thought it was for his own good to let him choose." Lu Shiyi said a little confused.

"He has a spiritual root, so he is different from ordinary people." Shu Mo didn't force him, Lu Shiyi smiled bitterly when he heard the words: "That's why Luo Shuimen still takes me with me even though I am the lowest mixed spiritual root." The reason for leaving." Shu Mo is right, monks are different from mortals, and it is dangerous for monks without foundation to stay in the mortal world.

"Let him stay here for a while longer, and I'll take him back to the world of cultivating immortals after the matter is over." Lu Shiyi is sometimes confused, whether he returned to Lujia Village to end this cause and effect, or to create a new one. cause and effect.The causes and effects in this world are intricate and complicated, even the Dao of Heaven, which controls all the rules in the world, is probably not powerful enough.

The situation in Lujia Village improved day by day, and the patients who were carried into the ancestral hall came out one by one. Lu Shiyi saw that he could not wait any longer, so he and Shu Mo bid farewell to the village chief.

Everyone can see the situation in Lujiacun, and the two handsome young men in front of them are the reborn parents of Lujiacun.If they heard that they went to Luodu before, they would stop them, but now that they have seen their abilities, it is hard to talk about keeping them. After all, compared with Lujiacun, Luodu obviously needs them more.

It's just that Lu Shiyi thought for a moment before leaving, and left Hu Shisan by Lu Shisan's side: "Protect him well." I don't know who he said this to, but seeing Hu Shi and Shisan showing seriousness together Nodding to himself with a straight expression, he couldn't help but smile.

After bidding farewell to the villagers and strengthening the formation outside the village, the two left Lujia Village with their swords. Just as their figures disappeared into the air, Lu Shisan, who slipped out quietly, hugged the food with both hands with great difficulty, and opened his mouth wide. Looking at the direction they were leaving with his mouth, he said in disbelief: "Immortal!" After a while, he looked at the solid Hushi in his arms, and said to himself in a suspicious tone: "Immortal...chicken?"

"Chirp!" Hu Shi rolled his eyes and moaned in dissatisfaction.

The two walked with swords, and it took only half an hour to reach Luodu. By that time, Luodu had already been sealed off, so they used a trick to sneak into the city.

Luodu is the capital of the mortal country Qi'an, and Qi'an is the largest country in the mortal world, so Luodu is naturally the most prosperous capital in the entire mortal world.

But now, at a glance, there is only depression and desolation left.

They landed for a long time and didn't meet a few mortals. Occasionally, they were all armed and hurried, and when they saw someone approaching, they wanted to get into the soil.

And Qi'an's palace was built on Luoshan Mountain after Luodu, and it looked majestic and magnificent from a distance.

"Dragon Qi... has changed." Shu Mo raised his head, and the distant palace slowly became blurred in his eyes, leaving only a lingering purple aura mixed with black aura: "The root of the plague lies in this palace."

Apart from the looming black air, there was nothing unusual in the palace.The two of them successfully sneaked into the palace with a trick of their eyes, but the palace is too big, and they didn't know where to go for a while.

"The black air seems to have faded." Lu Shiyi frowned. He wanted to go to the place where the black air gathered, but after entering the palace, he found that the black air was so faint that it was almost invisible.

"Someone has set up a formation here." Shu Mo said in time, and pointed in one direction.

After casting blindfolds, the two of them seemed to be in the land of no one, and a few skitters stopped outside a brightly lit temple.

"Your Majesty, the fragrant soup is ready." Lu Shiyi and Shu Mo had excellent ears and looked at each other when they heard it.The embarrassment on Lu Shiyi's face disappeared in a flash, and he was about to pull Shu Mo away when he frowned.

"Yeah." At the same time, there was a sound in the room, Lu Shiyi's legs went limp, and he almost fell to the ground, feeling ashamed, Shu Mo whispered in his ear, "It's Moxiu."

Lu Shiyi heard the words and said seriously: "But there is no magic energy."

"It should be some way to cover up the aura on your body." Shu Mo continued: "The magic technique practiced by the demon in the temple is special, which can confuse the minds of ordinary people. Even a monk, if he is a little careless, he will be tricked. Your legs are weak just now. It's also because of this technique." Lu Shiyi quickly calmed down when he heard this, the soup was made of some ingredients, and both of them could smell the strong fragrance standing outside the hall.

The two stood on the roof and listened for a while, but there was nothing but the sound of splashing water.Just when she was bored, a bright yellow figure walked over at Bu Huan Si, surrounded by a group of maids carrying lanterns.

This hour is still in the palace, and there is no one else wearing bright yellow dragon robes except Emperor Qi'an.

Emperor Qi'an was over sixty years old, and his temples had completely turned gray-white. His upper eyelids were drooping, and his small eyes turned into gloomy inverted triangles. Only a pair of cloudy eyeballs were exposed, and his whole body exuded A smell of dying corruption.

"The dragon energy on him is going to dissipate." The mortal world lacks aura, resources are poor, and with the protection of dragon energy, even the demon cultivators in the extreme north are unwilling to take the effort to make this trip, so the mortal world can Survive in the cracks of the Three Realms.

Surrounded by Emperor Qi'an, he entered the inner hall. After a while, there was a rustling sound in the hall, and then it seemed that something heavy fell into the water, causing a splash of water.

Lu Shiyi still wanted to listen carefully, but an indescribable sound came to his ears.His whole body was shaken, and only then did he understand what happened. His ears turned red quickly, and a puff of heat rose from his cheeks. After covering his ears tightly, he couldn't help but glance at Shu Mo from the corner of his eye.

However, the expression on his face did not change at all, as if he hadn't heard it.

Fortunately, the sound didn't last long. The two sat on the roof, covered with starlight, and waited for the sound to disappear before entering the hall.

There were only dark red candles left in the palace, and there were demon cultivators in the palace, and the two dared not stay for long. After Shu Mo found the source of the black energy, the two left the palace.

The rising sun lit up half the sky.

Luodu was still as desolate as it was yesterday, and the two of them were rather eye-catching as they swaggered through the city, but no matter how curious they were, they only dared to take a look from afar.

"The darkest place is under the bed," Shu Mo said.

Lu Shiyi frowned and said: "The demon cultivator has been guarding the hall, I'm afraid we won't have a chance to investigate."

Shu Mo's expression changed, and it seemed that he had an idea: "The emperor's dragon energy is about to be exhausted, which means that the day when the emperor star will fall is not far away." Dynasties change in the mortal world is a common thing, and sometimes even Shu Mo can't remember clearly When I came here, which country did the territory under my feet belong to?

Lu Shiyi immediately understood that when the emperor star falls, there must be a new emperor star rising. They may still have a chance to find the next emperor star now.

"Prince Su's Mansion?" Lu Shiyi frowned at the Zhumen who had lost a large piece of lacquer. The future emperor star seemed to have a high status, but he was not doing well.

Just as he was about to knock on the door, he saw a notice with a corner torn off on the edge of the paint-stained Zhumen. Some of the notice was torn off, but the content on it could still be seen clearly.

"Looking for a famous doctor in the world." Just as he was about to fall asleep, someone brought him a pillow, pulled off the notice, and Lu Shiyi knocked on the door of King Su's mansion.

The surname of the Qi'an royal family is Xuan, King Su is the eldest brother of Emperor Qi'an, and has only one legitimate son under his knees.His son-in-law was an out-and-out dandy, and he was restless after marrying a wife and having children, and finally died of drunkenness in the gentle village, an extremely disgraceful death.

After the death of the legitimate son, the daughter-in-law also died of depression within a few years, leaving only a frail and sickly young son.King Su searched for famous doctors, and carefully hung his life until he was 17 years old. Unexpectedly, he was beaten back to his original form after a plague.

Seeing King Su's worried appearance does not seem to be fake, he thinks that he really values ​​this grandson very much, but King Su doesn't have dragon spirit on him, obviously the next Emperor Star is not him.

In Su Wang's mansion, besides Su Wang, there is only one heir. Lu Shiyi followed behind Su Wang and couldn't help thinking, could this dragon spirit belong to the heir?

Su Wang's son Xuanhuai was not very old, and when they entered the door, he was lying on the bed flipping through a yellowed ancient book, and when he saw the doctor his grandfather had found for him, he just raised his eyes.

"Huai'er." He didn't put down the book in his hand until King Su called out, and stretched out his slender wrist silently.Perhaps because he was weak and sick since he was a child, he spent most of his time in his room.

When he raised his eyes, he looked at Lu Shiyi with his dark eyes, and there was no spirit in his eyes, nor did he have the vigor of a young man.

Su Wang stepped forward distressedly, and said softly: "How do you feel today?"

"Today is fine." His voice was not dull at all, but clear and bright with a touch of ethereal.Perhaps because of the dragon aura, there is not much sickness in Yi Wang's mansion, but the more so, the more strange Lu Suyi is, because Xuan Huai does not have dragon aura.

"You are the 170th doctor who treated me." Xuan Huai's voice was neither happy nor angry, and he said calmly after seeing the other party give him his pulse.

Lu Shiyi raised his eyebrows and said absent-mindedly: "Really, the prince has seen many doctors." He understands the pulse condition, but he is not good at it, but for ordinary people, a cup of diluted spiritual marrow is enough to prolong his life up.

Xuan Huai was taken aback, as if he didn't expect the other party to answer like this, but King Su stepped forward the moment Lu Shiyi withdrew his hand and asked with concern: "How?"

"It can be saved." Lu Shiyi stood up and said, King Su showed a surprised expression when he heard this.

Xuan Huai didn't seem to have heard the good news, his face was still gloomy.At the beginning, he would have expectations in his heart, but in the end, only deeper despair was obtained in exchange for repeated expectations, and he completely gave up.

"Then you prescribe the prescription!" Su Wang's face became rosy with excitement following Lu Shiyi's confident words, and he said quickly: "I will order someone to find any medicinal materials needed."

"No need." Lu Shiyi said to King Su: "Bring a glass of water." King Su was stunned, and quickly ordered the servants who were waiting in the room: "Quick! Bring water."

After taking the cup, he took out the jade bottle containing the spirit essence, and Lu Shiyi dropped a drop of spirit essence in the bottle into the water: "Pour this glass of water into the water used by the prince, and in the next few days, whether it is eating or bathing, you will be able to enjoy it." Use the water mixed with the water in this cup."

"This..." Su Wang frowned, and doubt appeared in his eyes.

"Don't worry, my lord. If you don't believe me, we will live in the mansion for a few days. If the son has not recovered after ten days, I am willing to be punished." Seeing his swearing appearance, King Su replied in a daze: "good."

Although the palace looked dilapidated, King Su was a relative of the emperor after all, and the two were arranged in the courtyard for welcoming guests, and there was even a small kitchen inside.

A simple blindfold made it impossible for ordinary people to recognize. Lu Shiyi and Shu Mo left a phantom in the courtyard. From the perspective of others, they lived a secluded life, but in fact they were very busy every day.

They went to the palace a few more times, but the demon cultivator was very vigilant and made them miss every time. As for the dragon qi, there was no progress, and the plague seemed to be deadlocked.

King Su loved his grandson very much, and after confirming that the water was not poisonous, he ordered people to do as Lu Shiyi said.The spiritual marrow took effect very quickly, and Xuan Huai's originally pale and thin face became rosy day by day.

Coincidentally, at this time, the matter of Long Qi also had a turning point. On the third day after they lived in Su Wang's Mansion, and the first day Xuan Huai was able to get out of bed, the owner of Long Qi came back.

"My lord held a thank-you banquet at Jimo Xuan tonight, to thank Mr. Lu for his wonderful hand and healing of his son." King Su showed his respect and sent the chief steward of the palace.

Shu Mo had already noticed it when the Lord of Dragon Qi entered the mansion, and now that the housekeeper came to invite him, the Lord of Dragon Qi must be present tonight.

"We will definitely go." Lu Shiyi responded with a smile.

Jimoxuan was in the courtyard where King Su lived, and he did not invite outsiders to this banquet, but the more it was like this, the more he could see King Su's sincerity.

When Lu Shiyi and Shu Mo arrived, there were only three people sitting on the round table, and delicacies and wines had already been placed on the table. Except for King Su and the eldest son Xuanhuai who was finally able to get out of bed, they saw the third person.

He looked not much older than Shizi, with handsome features, light-colored thin lips slightly pursed, the corners of his lips turned down, and his face was full of indifference.Bloody murderous aura condensed all over his body, even wearing luxurious clothes couldn't cover it up, with a pair of seductive peach blossom eyes on such a face, when he looked at him, he would only feel cold all over his body.

"Yuntang, this is the Mr. Lu I told you about." King Su's brows were full of joy, as soon as Lu Shiyi sat down, he said to the strange young man sitting next to Xuan Huai.Then she turned to Lu Shiyi and Shu Mo: "This is Song Yuntang, Marquis of Anyuan, who grew up with Huai'er."

Lu Shiyi saw half of his body sinking in the purple air, raised his glass and said with a smile: "Master Hou."

The author has something to say:
