Magical Medicine in ancient times

Chapter 172 Little Immortal!

The wind is getting stronger, and the snowflakes are flying around.

Xiao Xizi shrank her neck, put her hands in her hands, and walked hurriedly.After a while, there was already a lot of ice and snow on his head.He stomped his feet and squeezed into the door, the whistling wind mixed with rain and snow drifted into the room, he hurriedly pressed his back against the door, and then reluctantly stretched out a hand from his sleeve to close the door tightly.

The wind and snow were blocked outside the door, although it was still cold inside the house, after all it was warmer than the wind blowing rain and snow outside.

He patted the rain and snow on his body, bowed his back and walked in.

The room is fairly spacious, but a bit shabby.There are two beds on the inside, and the quilt on the bed against the wall is slightly arched.

Xiao Xizi pursed her lips into a smile, and went straight to the bed without stopping.

The quilt on the bed was tightly rolled up, and only a dark hair tip was exposed on the pillow.

Xiao Xizi stepped lightly, bent down, stretched out her hand and gently pushed the arched quilt, "Xiao Qu'er, are you asleep?"

There was no movement in the quilt, so he put in more effort, and his tone was filled with joy, "Xiao Qu'er, wake up, look what I brought back for you? Are you hungry, get up and eat!"

Xiao Xizi called softly, and pulled the quilt again.Finally, the quilt wrapped like a big fat bug squirmed, and the quilt opened a crack, revealing a yellow and haggard face.

Seeing this, Xiao Xizi quickly took out the things she had been protecting all the way from her arms, "Look, Xiao Qu'er, the big steamed buns I brought you. It's delicious! Get up and eat some."

The steamed buns were fat and white, with some oil stains on them, and they were still steaming when they were taken out.

"Look at the steamed buns are still hot, eat them quickly." Xiao Xizi joyfully held the steamed buns and brought them to Xiao Qu'er's eyes, and he carefully opened the steamed buns to reveal the meat wrapped inside.

"Look, I even stuffed chicken thighs for you. It's delicious. It's specially reserved for us by Mr. Jin Planer. I shaved the bones and put them in steamed buns. Eat some... ’ He moved the meat a little closer.

"Xiao Xizi, you're back..." With a hoarse and dry voice, Xiao Qu'er licked his pale and skinned lips, his head was dazed, and he wanted to stretch out his hand, but he felt his limbs were limp and weak. The body has no strength, as if it has been trapped in the quilt.

"Do you want a drink of water? I'll get it for you." Seeing this, Xiao Xizi hurriedly put the steamed buns into the empty bowl on the low table next to her, walked to the table next to her in a few steps, and poured a glass of water.

It's a pity that the water was already cold, and he held the cold glass, "The water is too cold, I'll go and re-boil it for you."

"No, no need, let me have a drink first."

There is no stove in the house, and if you want to re-boil the water, you have to go to the dining room.There will be a lot of delay.Although they are not far from the dining room, but this time, not to mention the time delay, it is so cold outside, the water will be cold before they walk back.He couldn't hide water in his arms like steamed buns.

Thinking of this, he had no choice but to give up the idea of ​​re-boiling the water, and came to the bedside with the cup in his hand, supported Xiao Qu'er to raise the pillow with one hand, and fed water to his mouth.He felt his fingertips scorching hot just by touching his hands, and he panicked, his eyes widened a little, and he exclaimed, "Why are you so hot?"

Xiao Qu'er poured cold water into it with his hands, and instantly felt as if his whole body was soaked in ice water, and he felt cold from the inside out.

He opened his mouth, and before he could say anything, he coughed out, and the cough couldn't stop, as if he wanted to take his lungs out of his throat.

"What's wrong with you? Didn't you feel better when I went out in the morning? How could this happen..." Xiao Xizi was frightened, and he patted Xiao Qu'er's back, "Where's your medicine? I'll go and boil it for you right away." Medicine, drink the medicine and you'll be fine."

In a hurry, he went to check the cabinet, but it was already empty.

"Why did you finish eating? Didn't you say you can take it for a few days?" Xiao Xizi was a little at a loss, "I'm going to find Doctor Chen and ask him to get you some more medicine."

Xiao Qu'er managed to stop her coughing, she almost had no strength to breathe, her heart felt like a knife scraping, and her fingertips were trembling and numb.

"Don't go." He called Xiao Xizi to stop, panting, "It's useless, I've been ill for a few days, and if it's not good, I will be kicked out of the palace soon."

Xiao Xizi looked at his haggard and weak appearance, as if he was about to fall down at any time, a sudden surge of grief filled his heart, he walked over and sat on the edge of the bed, "Don't think too much, you will get better soon Yes. I will go find the imperial physicians for you. The imperial physicians are so good at medicine, they will definitely cure you, and you will be cured after taking the medicine."

Xiao Qu'er laughed. He was not very old at first, and his face was still a bit childish. After being sick for a few days, his cheeks were sunken. Healers, how could they come to treat us little eunuchs?"

"Don't cry. Actually, I didn't tell you before. I wanted to leave the palace a long time ago. I really want to go home."

Xiao Xizi touched her face, only to realize that her face was wet.He twitched his sour nose, "Xiao Qu'er, if you persist, didn't we agree to be together forever? How could you go home first? I'm so boring in the palace by myself."

The more he talked, the more sad he became, his eyes were already foggy, and tears were streaming down his face, "I'll go to Doctor Chen to get you some medicine, you'll be fine after you take it..."

He and Xiao Qu'er entered the palace in the same batch, trained and worked together, and later they were assigned to the same residence.Like brothers, they have always depended on each other in the palace.He never thought that Xiao Qu'er would leave like this.

Obviously it's just a cold, and he's already taken the medicine. His illness has started to improve, and he can joke with him when he goes out in the morning.

Why did it change again after only half a day?

Speaking of going home, they were all sold into the palace because their families were poor. Xiao Qu'er was so ill that she had no money for medical treatment when she returned home. Isn't it just waiting to die?

Did he really think he was a fool?

"Xiao Xizi, what are you thinking, Xiao Xizi?" Jin Paochang slapped him on the back of the head, and shouted, "Why are you in a daze? Wash this dish quickly! Don't you see that everyone is busy?"

Xiao Xizi came back to her senses suddenly, feeling a dull pain in the back of her head.He twitched his somewhat clogged nose, blinked hard, and forced back the tears that were about to burst out of his eyes.

"I'll wash it right away, Jinshachang, I'm sorry." He wiped his face, his fingers were still cold, and he put the vegetables next to Jinshachang into the basin to wash carefully.

The imperial dining room was very busy, and the smoke filled the air.Everyone is busy, who cares about Xiao Qu'er's life?

Who cares about the life and death of these little eunuchs?

The water droplets smacked into the basin, Xiao Xizi pursed her lips, her eyes were sore and astringent, and the mist blurred her vision.

Soon, he washed the vegetables and carefully stacked them in the basin.He put the basin on the table, and the imperial chef immediately took it away and threw it into the oil fume.

His fingers were red with cold, and he was almost unconscious.But he still has to work, which is actually much better than other places.It's just that it's a little colder in winter, so it's not tiring.

He turned around, his footsteps stopped suddenly, his eyes were fixed on the front and he didn't move.

It was a corner, very quiet, as if the surrounding disturbances were far away from it.

He walked over slowly, not knowing what to expect in his heart.Then he took a deep breath and jerked his head forward.

There was nothing in the corner, the broth that fell there this morning had already been swept away, and nothing was left on the ground.

A deep sense of loss welled up in his heart, what was he thinking!He can see where the gods are.It was already a great blessing to meet him once, but he actually wanted to see him a second time.

He suddenly regretted it again, maybe he shouldn't have yelled before, maybe the little fairy didn't appear again because he was frightened by him.

He is so stupid, he should beg him when he sees the little fairy, so that Xiao Qu'er can be saved.

"Xiao Xizi, what are you doing standing there again? Quickly send these dishes to Xikun Palace, don't make the master wait too long."

"Here we come!" Xiao Xizi replied, looked at the empty corner reluctantly, then turned and left.

The dishes were already served, and he packed them tightly so that the road wouldn't get cold.Xikun Palace has its own small kitchen, but some dishes still need to be prepared by the Imperial Dining Room.

After they mentioned it, they would hand it over to the maids and eunuchs in Xikun Palace who were responsible for serving the meals.

Although they are not qualified to go in and serve dishes in person, even so, the people in the imperial dining room are still more willing to go to the place of these masters to deliver meals.Even if you can't see the master, if you see those big palace ladies and big eunuchs, if it catches your eye, it would be great to remind you a few days someday.

The gold planer took out a pot of meat neatly and put it aside.Then he greeted: "Dongzi, quickly send these dishes to Dr. Zhou."

Xiao Xizi paused suddenly, the word doctor pierced into his heart like a needle, and even his fingertips trembled.

"Who is Dr. Zhou? Is he also an imperial physician from the imperial hospital?"

"Of course not!" Dongzi packed the dishes one by one, "I heard that he is much better than the imperial doctor! Everyone calls him the God of Medicine!"

"God of Medicine?" Xiao Xizi's eyes widened, her heart beating.

"He is the god of medicine! I heard that he can cure any disease, and he can save the dead!"

"What nonsense? The wind is the rain, and you can talk about the affairs of the nobles? Hurry up and leave." Chief Jin Ji turned his head and let out a roar, which made Dongzi tremble in fright.

His subordinates sped up a bit, and were about to leave with the food when suddenly a hand reached out and grabbed his arm.

He turned his head in doubt, and saw Xiao Xizi pursed her lips, with a trace of pleading in her eyes, "Dongzi, why don't we change things, you go to Xikun Palace, and I'll deliver meals to Doctor Zhou."

Dongzi's eyes lit up, this is a good job!

He entered the imperial dining room later than Xiao Xizi, so he didn't get this good job, so this is the opportunity now?

The next moment, Dongzi seemed to think of something again, and hesitated.He glanced at the busy gold planer beside him.

The work of delivering meals is assigned by the chief planer, so can they exchange it by themselves?

Xiao Xizi also looked at Mr. Jin Planer, he gritted his teeth and was about to speak.

"Go! Dongzi, it's your first time to go to Xikun Palace, be careful, don't offend the master." Jin Jichang swung the spatula vigorously, without turning his head.

"Alas!" The two were overjoyed, Dongzi hurriedly handed over the food to Xiaoxizi, and he followed the people going to Xikun Palace and walked away in a bumpy manner.

Xiao Xizi felt excited and was about to leave impatiently.

"When you go to the West Palace, don't talk nonsense, don't be self-defeating."

Xiao Xizi's heart tightened, looking at Jin Pao's long and generous back, he felt a warm feeling in his heart, he let out a "hmm", and then left the imperial dining room with the dishes.A pair of eyes are full of light of hope.

The weather in winter is getting dark quickly, the sky is gray, and pieces of fine snowflakes are floating in the sky, scattered everywhere with the cold wind.

No. 01 was lying in front of the window with her small face upturned.Eyes staring at the sky without blinking.

"You've been lying there for an hour, what are you looking at?"

Zhou Jin put down the medical book and rubbed his sore eyes.As soon as he looked up, he saw that No. 01 was still maintaining the previous posture, and he felt a little curious in his heart.When did this guy sit still like this?

"I'm looking at the sky." No. 01 didn't even move.

Zhou Jin probed out and looked outside, but there was nothing but gray. "What's so nice about the sky?"

"I'm watching when he gets dark! We can leave when it gets dark." No. 01 said solemnly.

Zhou Jin was speechless immediately, but he didn't expect No. 01 to want to leave so much.It seems that this palace is really not a place for people to stay!They really should leave quickly.

Not far away, a thin figure was slowly approaching. Zhou Jin squinted his eyes. Looking at his attire and the things he was carrying, he guessed that it was food delivered by the Imperial Dining Room.

It was almost time for dinner depending on the weather.

Zhou Jin turned around, put the medical books in the medicine box, and poured another cup of tea to drink.Then I heard footsteps coming from the yard.

After a while, the door opened.Zhou Jin turned his head to look, and saw a little eunuch walking in with food in both hands.

His hands were red from the cold, his face was red, and his lips were a little chapped.Only those eyes are very bright.Especially the moment I saw him, it seemed like light was about to overflow.

Zhou Jin had seen this look too many times.I have seen it in countless patients and their families!

He instantly understood what the little eunuch was thinking, but his current situation was really not a good time.

Zhou Jin withdrew his gaze, acting as if he didn't know anything.

Xiao Xizi suppressed the excitement in her heart, is this the God of Medicine?A doctor who is more powerful than imperial physicians.

He is so young.However, he didn't have the slightest doubt in his heart. Doctors who could enter the palace were all very powerful in his opinion.What's more, there are many guards outside, which is even more unusual.

He was thinking about how to speak, although his heart was already very excited, but he remembered the words of Mr. Jin Planer in his heart.What the gold planer said was always right.

He was afraid that if he accidentally said the wrong thing and angered the God of Medicine, then Xiao Qu'er would really be helpless.

"Doctor Zhou, please slow down!" Xiao Xizi arranged the dishes one by one.

The dishes were still steaming, and the scent spread out, and Zhou Jin felt a little hungry in his stomach.

"Thank you for your hard work."

Xiao Xizi was shocked, she didn't expect this God of Medicine to be so polite.Immediately flattered, he quickly waved his hands and said, "You are being polite, this is all a slave's job."

Zhou Jin smiled again and sat on the chair.

Xiao Xizi suddenly became short of breath, the God of Medicine was so kind, hope was kindled in his heart.This was the only chance, he mustered up his courage, squeezed his fists, and was about to kneel down and beg for medicine.

"What's delicious, it smells so good!" A clear and loud voice sounded from the side, and a chubby figure rushed over from the side.

He looked up subconsciously, his breathing stopped suddenly, a surge of hot blood rushed straight to the top of his head, his eyes were so wide that they almost jumped out.

The next moment, a scream overflowed his throat: "Little God!"

No. 01's eyes shot over like a beam of light, and he recognized Xiao Xizi at a glance, the soles of his feet felt numb all of a sudden, and his hair was about to stand on end.

He opened his mouth and said "ah".

The next moment, with a "bang", the heavy object fell to the ground.

There was a sound of hurried footsteps outside the gate, and the guards arrived as bee pupae.

"What happened?"

"How are you, Doctor Zhou?"
