keep this doctor

"Young master, I can't...you can...go forward..." Qian Kejiang, the steward of Renjitang, panted and rode back against the wind to the front of Bai Junzhuo's carriage, letting go of his throat and shouting.

They struggled forward in the furious and raging snowstorm. The snow on the mountain road was getting deeper and deeper, and the convoy of Renjitang escorting medicinal materials was forced to stop.

In the simple and plain carriage, Bai Junzhuo pushed open the window lattice, looked at the hazy weather and heavy snow outside, and could only sigh - he thought he could return to Hezhou City before the blizzard came, but now he is stuck here There are no shops behind the village.

"Chamber, can you find a place where you can avoid the wind and snow? We must avoid it." Bai Junzhuo looked at the chaotic motorcade, frightened horses and trembling men. Some impatient.

Qian Kejiang smiled, rejoicing that although his young master has no experience, he is a humble, persuasive and considerate guy, and has always had a good reputation. Let's go there and hide."

"Cough cough...Okay, Qian Bo will lead the way, tell everyone to follow." The wind and snow poured in from the wide-open window, chilling the frail Bai Junzhuo, and forced his breath back, choking Cough straight.

Renjitang's procurement of medicinal materials in the second half of the year did not go well. Since the beginning of winter, typhoid fever and miscellaneous diseases and successive wars have caused their inventory to decrease rapidly. There was a pharmacy in the state with ample stock, so he hurriedly led the team to buy it himself, fearing that it would fall into the hands of others if he went a step too late. Who knew that it happened to be this rare snowstorm, which abruptly delayed their return journey.

The group finally drove the carriage to the mountain temple, and they all breathed a sigh of relief: the mountain temple is located in a mountain depression, surrounded by mountains on three sides, just avoiding the wind, and it became warm and quiet all of a sudden; the mountain god The temple is very simple, with only a small vestibule and a small main temple. Fortunately, there is a large open and flat grassland next to it, just for them to park the caravan.

After the carriage came to a complete stop, Bai Junzhuo quickly put on his cloak and hurriedly jumped off the carriage to check the situation with Qian Kejiang. After a long while, the two of them finished their discussion, and Bai Junzhuo said loudly:

"Everyone, it's too snowy to go on the road, and it's getting late, so let's stay here for one night. According to the previous arrangement, the two of them watch a carriage, and the rest follow the arrangements of Manager Qian."

Immediately Qian Kejiang stepped forward and carefully arranged issues such as the guards on duty, the supply of dry food and hot water, and everyone quickly took action.Bai Junzhuo breathed the dry and cold air, looked at the gray sky, and hoped that tomorrow would be a fine weather, so that he could transport all the medicinal materials home smoothly and safely.

**

In the middle of the night, the wind and snow were still raging, and a red bonfire was burning in the front yard of the mountain temple, and six strong and strong guys were carefully patrolling the surrounding area.

Bai Junzhuo hastily ate some dry food and drank a lot of hot water. His mind was restless and the conditions were poor. He barely curled up in the small carriage compartment, shivering from the cold with his cloak wrapped around him. It was given to Qian Kejiang, the oldest in the group, who had to accept it gratefully after he refused for a long time to no avail. He took the blanket back to his carriage and fell asleep wrapping it up.The rest of the guys were also in groups of two, squeezed into the carriage full of medicinal herbs, and fell asleep next to each other for warmth.

Suddenly, in the monotonous whistling wind and snow, Bai Junzhuo, who was feigning sleep, sensitively caught the neighing sound of a horse that did not belong to their convoy—it seemed to come from a distance?He immediately pulled up the heavy bamboo and cotton curtains and got out of the carriage, and walked quickly to the front courtyard of the mountain temple next to him. Bai Junzhuo came over, and the leader hurriedly said: "Just trying to wake up your young master, someone came from the mountain pass."

"Go and wake up Manager Qian. I heard that there are a lot of people coming." Bai Junzhuo looked at the mountain pass seriously, and at the same time, a guy rushed to the motorcade to wake up Qian Kejiang and everyone.

What made it too late for everyone to react was that not long after the words were spoken, a few fast horses suddenly ran up to them at the entrance of the mountain pass, and a sturdy and thick voice was transmitted from far to near, from weak to clear, to Renji In the ears of Tang's group: "...Fuck...I...there is a ruined temple here...Fuck, why didn't you say it earlier! Hey, what are you doing?" Wait until the last fierce sentence When he asked, several big men in military uniforms were already close in front of him, pointing at Bai Junzhuo with swords gleaming with cold light.

"Master, I have something to say. We are from Hezhou, and we came to this mountain temple to escape the wind and snow this afternoon. I don't know if you—" An older man stepped forward, clasping his hands with a smiling face to show, who Zhi just said a few words before being interrupted by the soldier, who got off his horse and came over, Bai Junzhuo thought he was going to make trouble, so he hurried forward and wanted to say a few more words, but he was suddenly pushed onto the snow.

"Okay, okay, don't be so sour and polite, I don't care about this! I warn you, no matter where you are from or what you do, be honest and don't play tricks, otherwise I will deal with you by military law. Listen clearly without?"

Seeing the young master's family being overthrown, the other party still uttered threats in a nonchalant manner, the guards of Renjitang became angry for a moment. When the confrontation was in a stalemate, many people ran in from the entrance of the mountain in the blink of an eye, and escorted them. Zuo Zhen was the leader of the long list of convoy supplies.

Seeing the scene where swords were on the verge of breaking out, and then seeing the strange men who dared not speak out and the domineering Jinzhou entourage in front of him, he understood immediately, and he got off the horse silently enduring the pain in his leg, and looked at him first. After searching for a while, he locked on to Bai Junzhuo who was surrounded by everyone.

"I don't know why you all appear here? Where did you come from? Where are you going?" Zuo Zhen had just finished asking, and when Bai Junzhuo was about to answer with restraint, the little official yelled again:

"Lord Zuo, whoever they are, just drive them away, let's make do with this ruined temple tonight."

Zuo Zhen said coldly: "Lord Fang, how can you say that this temple is also unowned, and they came first. Although it was a business trip, it can't break the rules of the Zhenbei Army!"

The little official Fang's face suddenly became ugly, the corner of his mouth twitched, and finally he smiled and said: "That's, that's, what Master Zuo said is right, my brother, I helped escort for the first time, but I don't understand your rules."

Zuo Zhen didn't even look at him, but turned to look at Bai Junzhuo, his eyes were first comforting, then urging him to speak quickly.

—At last a reasonable man came.

Bai Junzhuo heaved a sigh of relief, and cupped his hands and replied: "My lord, my surname is Bai, and my name is Junzhuo Lang. He is the young master of the Renji Hall in the north of Hezhou City. This time, he is rushing back to Hezhou to purchase medicinal materials from Mizhou. I just rested here—"

Before he finished speaking, Qian Kejiang was finally rushed to the scene with the help of someone. He was old and worked hard all the way. After falling asleep, he developed a high fever. The man just ran over and shook him desperately before waking him up. He briefly explained the situation After that, he forced the buddy to carry him over.

"Oh, cough cough...cough cough cough... Brother Zuo, why is it you? Cough cough..." Qian Kejiang stood beside Bai Junzhuo, seeing Zuo Zhen suddenly coughing, his face turned red with choking.

"Uncle Qian, do you know this lord?" Bai Junzhuo glanced at the handsome Zuo Zhen with broad shoulders and long legs, and asked in a low voice with some surprise. Cleared.

Zuo Zhen was also a little surprised, but he quickly greeted him: "Uncle Qian, why are you here? My nephew is also on business."

"Hey, Young Master took us to Mizhou for a trip... Cough cough... Purchasing medicinal materials, no, it was blocked by the blizzard... Didn't that kid from Dicheng come with you?" Qian Kejiang asked with concern He remembered his own nephew, Zuo Zhen's righteous brother.

"The fourth child stays in the mansion and has other errands." Zuo Zhen replied, he couldn't help but look at Bai Junzhuo a few times - at first glance, he thought he looked good, and secondly, he was obviously a little panicked when he noticed this person Lost and confused, but at this moment, he obviously let out a sigh of relief secretly, which is inexplicably funny.

After exchanging a few words of pleasantries, both sides relaxed and stopped holding their weapons tightly.

Qian Kejiang was feeling unwell, high fever and weak to take out to take away and began to cough violently. Bai Junzhuo asked someone to send him back to rest, and then asked the accompanying doctor to show him and prescribe a simple prescription for him to decoct on the spot.Then he took the initiative to organize his own convoy even tighter, freed up most of the seats for the convoy escorted by Zuo Zhen, and then asked someone to re-boil a few pots of hot water, so that those white-faced and trembling soldiers could drink warm body.

"I'm sorry, Mr. Bai, Mr. Bai, please don't take what happened just now to your heart. They are all vulgar and impolite fools." Zuo Zhen drank hot water and looked at Bai Junzhuo wrapped in a snow-white cloak. He looks handsome, but has a warm smile on his face all the time. He is busy in commanding and cooperating with arranging his convoy into the open space, and he can't help feeling good in his heart.

Bai Junzhuo smiled and waved his hands indifferently: "Master Zuo is polite, just call me Junzhuo. Since you are on a mission for the Zhenbei Army, I am actually quite proud to be able to help you."

"You, you like Zhenbei Army?" Zuo Zhen didn't know why, he couldn't pronounce the word "Junzhuo" with his usual hearty atmosphere.

"Of course, is there anyone in Hezhou who doesn't like it? Our safety is all in exchange for the Zhenbei Army's perseverance and fighting. How can we not be grateful?" Bai Junzhuo was busy working with sincerity and joy, his dark eyes sparkling.

Zuo Zhen suddenly felt a little embarrassed: "It should be, that's how soldiers should be, it's not worthy of your gratitude."

Bai Junzhuo said seriously: "No, nothing is taken for granted. Since you have protected us in a real way, shouldn't you even be grateful in your heart? That would be too cold-blooded."

Zuo Zhen: "..." What an interesting Mr. Bai, Bai, and Bai Junzhuo.

**

It was more than an hour before the mountain temple became quiet again.

After Bai Junzhuo took a look at Qian Kejiang, he returned to his carriage, but after curling up and moving around for a long time, he couldn't sleep, so he couldn't help but quietly pushed open the window lattice to look.

In the vestibule where the bonfires were burning, the men who had already been lying on the ground in disorder at this moment were snoring resoundingly with the warmth of several bonfires.Zuo Zhen was also lying on his side and was going to take a nap, but his left calf was so sore that it felt like embroidery needles were pricking constantly. I turned over and sat up, and began to massage my injured leg - alas, this damn weather, my leg is almost useless...

Bai Junzhuo watched for a long time, looking at the annoyed and painful profile of the tall man, feeling a little sympathetic - after all, Zuo Zhen rescued him just now, and even apologized to the villain, he should be thanked for all reasons some.

After thinking for a while, he got out of the carriage again, grabbed the remaining blanket, went to the clerk and asked for bruise medicine wine and a small pot of spirits, walked gently to Zuo Zhen, sat down, and handed the things over to Zuo Zhen. give him.

In fact, it's not that Zuo Zhen didn't feel Bai Junzhuo's gaze just now, but he didn't think too much about it, and Quan thought he couldn't sleep and felt bored. At this time, he saw the things the other party stuffed into his arms, and was a little surprised for a while— —So generous and not holding grudges?Did the people on our side embarrass you just now?

"Uh, Lord Zuo? Use it if you don't mind it." Bai Junzhuo stretched out his hand, seeing that the other party didn't answer for a long time, feeling a little embarrassed for a while.

Zuo Zhen came back to his senses, took the things slowly, and said with a complicated smile: "Thank you so much, Mr. Bai is really interesting." After speaking, he immediately unscrewed the hip flask and took a big gulp of spirits.

"It's cool, it's delicious!" Zuo Zhen raised his neck and praised in a low voice, a few drops of wine ran down his chin and disappeared into his collar. Bai Junzhuo saw it, and just wanted to remind him, but felt that he was ridiculous ——Maybe most of the men in the army are so bold and unruly, but it is rare for me to see them.

After drinking half a pot in succession, Zuo Zhen, who hadn't eaten for a day, began to feel a little uncomfortable holding his thumb against his stomach, without any scruples about Bai Junzhuo beside him.Seeing this, the latter smiled knowingly, turned around and went back to fetch some dry food, stuffed it into Zuo Zhen's hand: "I still have some food here, Mr. Zuo might as well use some, as a cushion."

Zuo Zhen gave a "tsk" with a bitter face, and said in a muffled voice, "I made Mr. Bai laugh. It's a good thing that I ran into you today, otherwise Zuo would have to suffer all night."

"Hahaha, when you're away from home, you should take care of each other. Master Zuo doesn't have to be so polite." The two began to get acquainted strangely, and Bai Junzhuo was no longer as stiff as he was at the beginning.

The bonfire was burning happily, and the two sat side by side, chatting with each other in a low voice, with deep and clear laughter intertwined from time to time.

**

After seeing each other like old friends in the half-night and having a happy night talk over the "campfire", the two teams returned to Hezhou City together the next day. They were busy with their own business for half a month, until one afternoon, the concierge brought something to Zuo Zhen ,say:

"Second Brother Zuo, this is from the clerk at the Renji Hall in the north of the city. They say it is the medicated oil you ordered from them. Just rub your feet evenly on the wound after soaking your feet before going to bed."

Zuo Zhen was taken aback for a moment, and then quickly smiled: In the past few months, he has managed to calm down his heart, and no longer hurts his mind every night; but recently he has been a little bored, and now it’s over, the inexplicable boredom has disappeared Sweeping it all away, he took the medicated oil and carried it into his room with a smile.

——That Bai... that Jun Zhuo is really interesting.
