Magical Medicine in ancient times
Chapter 57 He is the apprentice of a genius doctor, Yuer flicks his tail...
The fish flicked its tail, and with a crackling sound, a splash of water was startled, and the water waves rippled, rippling around and around.
Liu Yongchang's voice was faint, and he said faintly: "What I hate the most in this life are those Taoist priests who play tricks. How ridiculous it is to decide the fate of a person's life based on their words!"
He seemed to be sighing softly and said this sentence, but also seemed to be a little angry, his eyes were deep and long, fixed in the distant sky.
He was slender and thin, standing on the side of the corridor, his black hair fluttered in the wind, and the wide hem of his robe swayed gently with the breeze. His long shadow was reflected on the rippling water, looking extremely lonely.
Zhou Jin sighed inwardly, so he really doesn't like feudal superstition.No one knows how many people have been harmed by this illusory thing, and how many happy families have been broken because of it!
He finally understood why Mrs. Liu was so indifferent to her own child, it was all because of the so-called orders of a vicious Taoist priest!
It's ridiculous!
Zhou Jin looked at the faint sadness on Liu Yongchang's handsome side face, and he couldn't help being angry for him. He thought, if he saw that fake Taoist priest, he must be taught a lesson!Let him know what man can conquer nature!
But speaking of it, Mr. Liu is also unlucky!That stinking Taoist priest is clearly narrow-minded and extremely vindictive!
He said those words just to make the young Liu Yong die forever!
As long as Master Liu and Mrs. Liu don't believe it, ten more Taoist priests will be useless!But it happened that Mr. Tong and Mrs. Tong both died, and it seemed that they had obeyed those orders by accident!
The ancients have always been superstitious, and by such a coincidence, Mrs. Liu actually believed the words of that stinky Taoist priest in grief.
It can be seen that Liu Yongchang, a little boy, is taking the blame for this!
Liu Yongchang stared at the pond full of pink lotuses, and unconsciously carried a bit of self-doubt in his voice, "Although I hate that Taoist priest's viciousness, but sometimes in the dead of night, I can't help but wonder, could it be that I am really a disaster star who came to the world?" , self-denial?"
Zhou Jin looked at him, and said dissatisfiedly: "What disaster star came to the world is obviously nonsense! The Liu Yongchang I know is not a person who can be influenced by one or two bad words from irrelevant people!"
Liu Yongchang turned his head and glanced at Zhou Jin, his eyes darkened, "Sometimes people are so strange, they know that it is just the enemy's evil words, and they can't be taken seriously! But they can't be completely dismissed from the mind! Whenever I think of the tragic death Grandpa and grandma, that vicious order will haunt me like a shadow, as if it came from the abyss of hell..."
Zhou Jin patted him on the shoulder, "All this is just a coincidence, it has nothing to do with you, you don't need to blame these accidents on yourself! Birth, old age, sickness and death are human nature. The world is full of accidents, who I don't know what tomorrow will be like! If everyone thinks like you, who else in this world is happy?"
After hearing this, Liu Yongchang chuckled, and the melancholy between his brows seemed to have dissipated a lot.
He said: "My aunt once told me this! To comfort me, she planted lotus flowers in this pond. She told me that lotus flowers are the most noble and tenacious! She hopes that I can be like these lotus flowers. Just be yourself and don't be influenced by others!"
He paused, then continued: "Whenever I am in pain, I will come here, look at these lotus flowers, and then I can think of what she told me back then, and my heart can regain peace!"
The water drops from the fish rolled down on the pink and white petals, and under the shining golden sun, they looked like round and translucent pearls.
He looked at the swaying pink lotus in the pond, as if he saw the woman who was always smiling again.
Zhou Jin sighed in his heart, it seemed that Liu Yongchang and her aunt really had a deep relationship.
I just don't know why Mrs. Xuan recuperates in the Liu Mansion. Judging by her age, she should have been married before the accident, but she has been taken care of by the Liu Manor, and her husband's family doesn't seem to ask.What happened in the middle?
Zhou Jin was puzzled. Seeing Liu Yongchang's calm face, he hesitated and asked, "Mrs. Xuan..."
At this moment, a servant came over and said, bowing his head: "Second Young Master, Doctor Zhou, the fish is ready!"
Liu Yongchang clapped his folding fan and said, "Okay! Doctor Zhou, let's go and taste how this fish tastes!"
The saliva in Zhou Jin's mouth was secreted in an instant, and he put the question behind him in an instant. His eyes lit up and he said: "Okay! I will also try the braised fish made by the chef of Liu's mansion and the fried fish outside. What a difference!"
Liu Yongchang chuckled softly, "I will not disappoint Dr. Zhou!"
The two left the gazebo with the servants.
In the kitchen, Lao Hong was sweating all over his body, and when he lifted the lid of the stove, the aroma of the soup boiling in the pot was steaming and wafting into the air, and a tangy smell of fish lingered in the noses of several people present.
The tip of Aji's nose kept twitching, and he sighed: "Old Hong's craftsmanship is really amazing. The taste of this fish alone makes me want to swallow my tongue!"
Lao Hong snorted, and said with a smile, "Stop flattering me! This fish is also fresh, and I don't even think about it, how much effort the Second Young Master put into raising it!"
Aji nodded in agreement, "It's true, the second son usually cares about these fish! No one dares to touch them. Who knew that we were asked to catch them and cook them today! When I heard that, I thought I saw a ghost Already!"
Lao Hong glanced at him, and said: "No matter how expensive this fish is, can it compare to Doctor Zhou? Since Doctor Zhou wants to eat it, why not just catch all the fish in the pond!"
Aji nodded again and again, full of approval, "That's right!"
Lao Hong held a large pot and spoon in his hand, and with a quick sweep of his hand, the whole fish was put on the plate whole.He poured the last spoonful of soup on it, and the hot air filled the whole kitchen with the smell of fish. He swallowed unconsciously, and said, "Hurry up and take it out while it's hot! Don't make Second Young Master and Doctor Zhou wait too long." .”
"Hey! Good!" Aji left the kitchen with the freshly baked braised fish.
The outskirts of Ganjiu Town are sparsely populated and overgrown with vegetation.
The sun hanging high in the sky seems to have lost some of its enthusiasm here.
A faint coolness lingers in the air.
The ground is covered with dead branches and fallen leaves. Because no one has cleaned them, layers of dead leaves have accumulated over the years to form a thick layer.
When the dog stepped on it, he could hear the creaking sound.
The three of them walked through the dense forest path, and a dilapidated temple appeared in front of them.
The temple has long been in disrepair, half of the wall tiles have collapsed, and the ground at the base of the wall is full of gravel and soil.The spider web hangs in the corner, and there are faintly visible spiders in the dark lying quietly in the dark, just waiting for the prey to fall into the net.
Gouzi looked at all this, but felt very kind.This is the place where he grew up, and it is always so shady and cool here.
There is plenty of rain in summer, and every time it rains, water drips everywhere in the temple, and the ground is always very wet.In winter, however, the collapsed and leaky walls cannot block the cold wind blowing from all directions.
Throughout the winter, they couldn't sleep well, and they would always be woken up by the cold.
And it was such a dilapidated place that his grandfather fought his way to grab it!After grandpa died, they were the ones who desperately guarded this shelter.
Gouzi sighed, all this is so close, yet so far away.
He doesn't belong here anymore!
"Brother, come in quickly!"
Ah Bao stood by the crumbling gate, tilting his head to look at him.
"Hey! It's coming!" Gouzi put away the thoughts that came up for no reason and speeded up.
Nothing has changed in the temple from when he left!
It should be that he hasn't changed much since he was a child.It's just that the wall on the north side has collapsed even more. It used to be as tall as him, but now it only reaches his waist.
The statues in the temple are still in dilapidated condition, and the paint on the surface has already fallen off, mottled and fragmented.Cobwebs are intertwined everywhere on the roof.
Gouzi only glanced at it, and walked to their usual resting place in a familiar way.
He bypassed the dilapidated statue, and turned to the rear, which was a relatively clean and small area.The space at the back is quite spacious, and it is no problem to lie down five or six people.
The left and right sides are covered by the torn canvas, the ground is covered with a thick layer of branches and leaves, and a piece of cloth made of various colors of cloth is placed flat on the surface.
Some parcels of clothes were piled up on the edge of the cloth, and the bowls they usually used for begging were placed crookedly in the corner, and the eaves of the bowls were full of holes.
Ah Hua was lying on one side, with her legs curled up and her eyes slightly closed.
Tie Dan hugged the steamed buns and sat there, shook her shoulders lightly, and said gently: "Ah Hua, it's time to eat, I brought you steamed buns back."
A'hua's eyelids trembled slightly, her messy eyebrows trembled, and she slightly half-opened her eyes.
Xiao Bao took off his shoes and jumped up, hugged A Hua by one arm and pulled, "Sister A Hua, don't sleep, we brought you delicious food!"
Speaking of presenting treasures, he seemed to take out a two-finger-wide pastry from his belly clothes.The corners of the pastry were missing, the surface was rubbed loose, and a lot of powder fell off.
Xiao Bao carefully held the broken pastry, as if he was holding some great treasure.
Gouzi saw that she didn't look right, so he hurriedly sat down and said worriedly: "Ah Hua, I'm Brother Gouzi, what's wrong with you? Is there something wrong?"
Ah Hua babbled, she stared hard at her eyes, as if she had just seen the person in front of her, and said in a crying voice, "Brother Gouzi, you are back! Ah Hua misses you so much!"
Gouzi's heart suddenly felt sour, his nose was full of sour gas, and his eyes began to blur.
He rubbed his nose vigorously and said, "Ah Hua, I'm back to see you, I'm sorry, I haven't come back to see you for so long, what's wrong with you?"
Ah Hua smiled, then immediately frowned, covered her stomach and coughed a few times, her thin body trembling uncontrollably.
"Ah Hua, what's wrong with you? Could it be that your stomach hurts again? But hasn't the master already cured you?" Gouzi was anxious, and hurriedly grabbed her thin wrist, and carefully diagnosed and treated her.
Tie Dan's colorful and swollen face was also full of worry. Seeing Gouzi's movements, he suddenly patted his head, and said in a low voice, "Oh, I almost forgot that Gouzi studied medicine at Zhou Shenyi's place. Take a quick look." See how Ah Hua is doing!"
Xiaobao sobbed with his mouth flat: "Brother Gouzi, you have to save Sister Ahua! She has been feeling unwell since yesterday!"
Gouzi frowned and felt Ahua's pulse seriously, but her pulse was rough and slow, like a light knife scraping bamboo.This is clearly a symptom of qi stagnation and blood stasis!
He lightly pressed his hands on Ah Hua's stomach again, and when he touched the lower left abdomen, Ah Hua immediately showed a painful expression, and his face turned pale in an instant.
Gouzi had a bad heart, he hurriedly opened A'hua's clothes, but saw a bruise on A'hua's stomach, the color was very permeable.
"What's going on here!" the dog asked in surprise.
Ah Hua lay on the ground with a disconsolate expression, her lips trembling and sobbing.
He immediately turned his head to look at Tie Dan.But Tie Dan's face was blue and red, his eyes dodged, and he looked guilty.
All of a sudden, his anger surged up, and he couldn't help but raise his tone, "Tie Dan, I'm asking you something! What's going on!"
Tie Dan felt guilty in his heart, the arrogance he used to face Gou Zi had long since disappeared, he stammered: "Yesterday when we were begging in the street, we accidentally bumped into an old lady. I didn't realize it for a while, so I let the man next to me kick Ah Hua's stomach..."
Gouzi's eyes were red, he grabbed the clothes on Tie Dan's shoulders and said sharply: "I was injured yesterday, why didn't you come to me! I asked you to take care of them, is that how you take care of them!"
Xiaobao was also startled by the sound, and quickly looked up at them.
When Tiedan heard it, he felt extremely wronged. He slapped Gouzi's hand away and roared, "Why didn't I come to you? You don't know! If you really care about Ah Hua, why never come back! Now I know that my heart hurts, why did I go early!"
As soon as the dog stopped, the anger in his heart subsided, and then a deep sense of sadness and self-blame came to his heart.
He whispered: "You're right! It's my fault! I only cared about myself, but left all of you behind! That's why Ah Hua got hurt!"
On the contrary, his appearance made Tie Dan unable to vent his anger for a while, and he couldn't say a word of accusation for a long time.
"Forget it, you're in your early days following Miracle Doctor Zhou! We'll be like this for the rest of our lives, and it's good that you can leave here."
Gouzi didn't speak for a long time, he lowered his head for a long while, his eyes fixed on Ah Hua lying there, he didn't know what he was thinking.
Then he raised his head and looked at Tie Dan, and said, "Are you really willing to stay here for the rest of your life, and live a life where people look down on you and are inferior to pigs and dogs?"
Tie Dan gave him a strange look, and said, "Otherwise, what can we do? We are born beggars. What else can we do if we don't become beggars!"
Then he said embarrassingly: "Not everyone has your extraordinary luck. Being able to have Master Zhou accept you as an apprentice will make you stand out from now on."
Gouzi paused, and said, "I can do it, so can you! Have you ever thought about finding a job?"
Tie Dan chuckled, "Goofy, you're really interesting. With us like this, who would ask us to work! I'm afraid someone would beat us out with sticks before we got close."
Gouzi raised his head and wandered around the ruined temples, with a solemn tone, "Ah Hua is injured, the humidity here is too heavy to live in! Find another place to move in!"
Tie Dan seemed to have heard a shocking joke. He covered half of his face and smiled, "Goofy, don't you know the sufferings of the world after being an apprentice of a genius doctor for a while? Where can we move? Just this ruined temple." It's also a matter of working hard to keep it!"
Gouzi ignored his ambiguity, and said: "I'll rent a house for you, you just move in! Take care of yourself in the future, the master said, we are young, we have hands and feet, how about it?" You can also find work!"
Xiao Bao stared at a pair of big eyes and said, "Brother, are we moving?"
Gouzi rubbed his head, nodded and said: "Yes! You don't need to live here anymore! You can sleep on a soft bed every day and have delicious food. Does Xiaobao like it?"
"I like it!" Xiaobao jumped up and jumped happily, then hugged him, buried his face in his stomach, and couldn't stop laughing happily.
Tie Dan knew that it was not easy, what Gouzi said was too far away for them.With a complicated face, he closed half of his bruised eyes and said, "You're not kidding, are you? Where did you get the money from?"
Although he knew that Gouzi was an apprentice in Zhou's Medical Center, he also heard that there was no money for being an apprentice, because he wanted to learn from the master, so it would be good if you didn't pay the master!And there is endless work every day, very tiring!
He also knew in his heart that although he complained a bit that Gouzi hadn't come back to see them, he understood him.How difficult it is for their muddy legs to go out!
Gouzi raised the corners of his mouth and smiled, his expression was full of admiration, "Master said that starting from this month, he will give me three hundred Wen a month!"
"What!" Tie Dan screamed, and then covered half of his face and twisted his facial features, he said in a muffled voice, "Three hundred Wen? You are not joking!"
Xiao Bao stared at this and that with confused eyes, not understanding why Tie Dan was so excited all of a sudden.
Gouzi hummed and laughed twice, with a smug expression on his face.
The sourness in Tie Dan's heart came up again, three hundred coins a month, three twenty-six dollars a year!Two years is seven or two dollars!He has never seen so much money in his life!
Why is Gouzi so lucky!Doctor Zhou is simply a kind person!Could he also worship Divine Physician Zhou as his teacher?
Tie Dan thought sourly, his whole heart seemed to be soaked in lemons.
Gouzi also ignored Tie Dan and let him scratch his heart and liver.He picked up Ah Hua who was lying on the side, and said, "I'll take her to the master. Her stomach is injured. I suspect there is internal bleeding. I'm not very good at medicine now, so I have to ask the master to take a look."
Then he murmured: "I don't know if Master Liu's banquet is over yet? Master, has he returned to the medical clinic?"
He picked up A'hua and walked out from behind the statue, and suddenly the front door was kicked open, and the door that had already been overwhelmed by the weight finally came to an end, and it hit the ground heavily with a "boom", splashing dust all over the place.
Several people squinted their eyes and coughed uncontrollably for a moment, and saw a group of strong men walking in fiercely amidst the smoke and dust.
The smoke and dust dissipated, Tie Dan saw the face of the person coming, his body trembled suddenly, his face was full of fear.
The leading man had a particularly upright dark face, sharp features, and tightly pursed thin lips. He looked at them carefully with his eyes, and suddenly pulled the corners of his mouth and laughed, "Okay! I found you! You stinky beggars, want to run after bumping into the old lady? It's not that easy!"
He waved his hand and said, "Take them away!"
Several people rushed forward in an instant, and they wanted to twist their hands behind their backs and hold them tightly.
Ah Hua suddenly fell to the ground, she rolled up her body, clutched her stomach and let out a burst of pain, Xiao Bao also cried loudly, the sound was deafening, resounding throughout the ruined temple, the dangerous wall on the north side fell down again Lots of mud.
The man's eyes flickered, and Xiaobao immediately suppressed his crying, opened his mouth slightly, and cried with tears all over his face, wanting to cry.
Tie Dan wrinkled his face in pain, and shouted in fear, "Master, please forgive me! We really didn't mean it!"
Those people didn't listen at all, and they exerted a little force on their hands, and the two couldn't help crying out in pain.
Gouzi was at a loss, and hurriedly said, "What's going on here? What happened?"
Seeing this, the leading man raised his thick eyebrows and his eyes were extremely sharp, "Aren't you in the same group? Didn't they tell you what good things they did?"
Gouzi immediately looked at Tie Dan, Tie Dan's face was distorted in pain, and he just yelled: "Master, we really didn't mean it, I just wanted to ask the old lady for some money, I didn't want to offend the old lady!"
The man's gaze was like a torch, and he angrily said: "How dare you argue! Now that the old lady is unconscious, if something happens to her, I will ask you guys to be buried with her!"
Tie Dan was terrified after hearing this, and only kept begging for mercy.
Gouzi thought in his heart that it was terrible, seeing how well these people were dressed, he knew that they were not ordinary people.
He couldn't help but hate Tie Dan for causing such a catastrophe again!But until now, there is no way to ignore them!
He had no choice but to say: "Master, please calm down! I am also a doctor, why don't you let me take a look for the old lady, maybe it will be useful!"
The man squinted his eyes slightly, looked him up and down, and said, "A yellow-haired boy dares to speak up! Even an experienced old doctor can't do it, so it's up to you?"
When Tie Dan heard this, he quickly shouted: "He is the apprentice of Zhou Miracle Physician! Why is he like an ordinary doctor! Let him take a look for the old lady, maybe the old lady will wake up!"
Gouzi immediately raised his head and glared at him, Tie Dan immediately lowered his head guiltily, and shut up.
The man's expression was inexplicable, "Miraculous Doctor Zhou? But the Miraculous Doctor Zhou from Zhou's Medical Center?"
When Tie Dan heard that he knew Zhou Jin's fame, he immediately beamed with joy, and nodded quickly, "Yes, yes, yes! It's Zhou Miracle Doctor of Zhou's Medical Center!"
The man squinted his eyes slightly. He had just arrived in the town these few days, and he had also heard about the name of Miracle Doctor Zhou, but he had never seen it before, and he didn't know whether it was true or exaggerated!
He lowered his eyes and thought for a while, Tie Dan and the others were pinned down by those thick men and couldn't move.Xiaobao sat on the ground, hugged A'hua tightly, tears were hanging from the corners of his eyes, it was so pitiful whether he wanted to cry or not.
The man suddenly raised his eyes and stared at Gouzi and said, "Since you are a master of Master Zhou, please go and treat the old lady. If you can't cure it, I will tell you to go and never return!"
Tie Dan and Gou Zi were taken aback, both startled by the threat in his tone.
Gouzi was flustered, and his heart was pounding.How much he weighs, he knows very well, although the master is a genius doctor, he is only a half-doctor, if the old lady's condition is serious, how can he cure it!I'm afraid this time it's more ominous than good!
The man raised his chin behind them, and the servants immediately released them.
Tie Dan wrinkled his face and rubbed his arms, subconsciously looking at Gouzi.
Liu Yongchang's voice was faint, and he said faintly: "What I hate the most in this life are those Taoist priests who play tricks. How ridiculous it is to decide the fate of a person's life based on their words!"
He seemed to be sighing softly and said this sentence, but also seemed to be a little angry, his eyes were deep and long, fixed in the distant sky.

The water drops from the fish rolled down on the pink and white petals, and under the shining golden sun, they looked like round and translucent pearls.
He looked at the swaying pink lotus in the pond, as if he saw the woman who was always smiling again.
Zhou Jin sighed in his heart, it seemed that Liu Yongchang and her aunt really had a deep relationship.
I just don't know why Mrs. Xuan recuperates in the Liu Mansion. Judging by her age, she should have been married before the accident, but she has been taken care of by the Liu Manor, and her husband's family doesn't seem to ask.What happened in the middle?

He rubbed his nose vigorously and said, "Ah Hua, I'm back to see you, I'm sorry, I haven't come back to see you for so long, what's wrong with you?"
Ah Hua smiled, then immediately frowned, covered her stomach and coughed a few times, her thin body trembling uncontrollably.
"Ah Hua, what's wrong with you? Could it be that your stomach hurts again? But hasn't the master already cured you?" Gouzi was anxious, and hurriedly grabbed her thin wrist, and carefully diagnosed and treated her.
Tie Dan's colorful and swollen face was also full of worry. Seeing Gouzi's movements, he suddenly patted his head, and said in a low voice, "Oh, I almost forgot that Gouzi studied medicine at Zhou Shenyi's place. Take a quick look." See how Ah Hua is doing!"
Xiaobao sobbed with his mouth flat: "Brother Gouzi, you have to save Sister Ahua! She has been feeling unwell since yesterday!"
Gouzi frowned and felt Ahua's pulse seriously, but her pulse was rough and slow, like a light knife scraping bamboo.This is clearly a symptom of qi stagnation and blood stasis!
He lightly pressed his hands on Ah Hua's stomach again, and when he touched the lower left abdomen, Ah Hua immediately showed a painful expression, and his face turned pale in an instant.
Gouzi had a bad heart, he hurriedly opened A'hua's clothes, but saw a bruise on A'hua's stomach, the color was very permeable.
"What's going on here!" the dog asked in surprise.
Ah Hua lay on the ground with a disconsolate expression, her lips trembling and sobbing.
He immediately turned his head to look at Tie Dan.But Tie Dan's face was blue and red, his eyes dodged, and he looked guilty.
All of a sudden, his anger surged up, and he couldn't help but raise his tone, "Tie Dan, I'm asking you something! What's going on!"
Tie Dan felt guilty in his heart, the arrogance he used to face Gou Zi had long since disappeared, he stammered: "Yesterday when we were begging in the street, we accidentally bumped into an old lady. I didn't realize it for a while, so I let the man next to me kick Ah Hua's stomach..."
Gouzi's eyes were red, he grabbed the clothes on Tie Dan's shoulders and said sharply: "I was injured yesterday, why didn't you come to me! I asked you to take care of them, is that how you take care of them!"
Xiaobao was also startled by the sound, and quickly looked up at them.
When Tiedan heard it, he felt extremely wronged. He slapped Gouzi's hand away and roared, "Why didn't I come to you? You don't know! If you really care about Ah Hua, why never come back! Now I know that my heart hurts, why did I go early!"
As soon as the dog stopped, the anger in his heart subsided, and then a deep sense of sadness and self-blame came to his heart.
He whispered: "You're right! It's my fault! I only cared about myself, but left all of you behind! That's why Ah Hua got hurt!"
On the contrary, his appearance made Tie Dan unable to vent his anger for a while, and he couldn't say a word of accusation for a long time.
"Forget it, you're in your early days following Miracle Doctor Zhou! We'll be like this for the rest of our lives, and it's good that you can leave here."
Gouzi didn't speak for a long time, he lowered his head for a long while, his eyes fixed on Ah Hua lying there, he didn't know what he was thinking.
Then he raised his head and looked at Tie Dan, and said, "Are you really willing to stay here for the rest of your life, and live a life where people look down on you and are inferior to pigs and dogs?"
Tie Dan gave him a strange look, and said, "Otherwise, what can we do? We are born beggars. What else can we do if we don't become beggars!"
Then he said embarrassingly: "Not everyone has your extraordinary luck. Being able to have Master Zhou accept you as an apprentice will make you stand out from now on."
Gouzi paused, and said, "I can do it, so can you! Have you ever thought about finding a job?"
Tie Dan chuckled, "Goofy, you're really interesting. With us like this, who would ask us to work! I'm afraid someone would beat us out with sticks before we got close."
Gouzi raised his head and wandered around the ruined temples, with a solemn tone, "Ah Hua is injured, the humidity here is too heavy to live in! Find another place to move in!"
Tie Dan seemed to have heard a shocking joke. He covered half of his face and smiled, "Goofy, don't you know the sufferings of the world after being an apprentice of a genius doctor for a while? Where can we move? Just this ruined temple." It's also a matter of working hard to keep it!"
Gouzi ignored his ambiguity, and said: "I'll rent a house for you, you just move in! Take care of yourself in the future, the master said, we are young, we have hands and feet, how about it?" You can also find work!"
Xiao Bao stared at a pair of big eyes and said, "Brother, are we moving?"
Gouzi rubbed his head, nodded and said: "Yes! You don't need to live here anymore! You can sleep on a soft bed every day and have delicious food. Does Xiaobao like it?"
"I like it!" Xiaobao jumped up and jumped happily, then hugged him, buried his face in his stomach, and couldn't stop laughing happily.
Tie Dan knew that it was not easy, what Gouzi said was too far away for them.With a complicated face, he closed half of his bruised eyes and said, "You're not kidding, are you? Where did you get the money from?"
Although he knew that Gouzi was an apprentice in Zhou's Medical Center, he also heard that there was no money for being an apprentice, because he wanted to learn from the master, so it would be good if you didn't pay the master!And there is endless work every day, very tiring!
He also knew in his heart that although he complained a bit that Gouzi hadn't come back to see them, he understood him.How difficult it is for their muddy legs to go out!
Gouzi raised the corners of his mouth and smiled, his expression was full of admiration, "Master said that starting from this month, he will give me three hundred Wen a month!"
"What!" Tie Dan screamed, and then covered half of his face and twisted his facial features, he said in a muffled voice, "Three hundred Wen? You are not joking!"
Xiao Bao stared at this and that with confused eyes, not understanding why Tie Dan was so excited all of a sudden.
Gouzi hummed and laughed twice, with a smug expression on his face.
The sourness in Tie Dan's heart came up again, three hundred coins a month, three twenty-six dollars a year!Two years is seven or two dollars!He has never seen so much money in his life!
Why is Gouzi so lucky!Doctor Zhou is simply a kind person!Could he also worship Divine Physician Zhou as his teacher?
Tie Dan thought sourly, his whole heart seemed to be soaked in lemons.
Gouzi also ignored Tie Dan and let him scratch his heart and liver.He picked up Ah Hua who was lying on the side, and said, "I'll take her to the master. Her stomach is injured. I suspect there is internal bleeding. I'm not very good at medicine now, so I have to ask the master to take a look."
Then he murmured: "I don't know if Master Liu's banquet is over yet? Master, has he returned to the medical clinic?"
He picked up A'hua and walked out from behind the statue, and suddenly the front door was kicked open, and the door that had already been overwhelmed by the weight finally came to an end, and it hit the ground heavily with a "boom", splashing dust all over the place.
Several people squinted their eyes and coughed uncontrollably for a moment, and saw a group of strong men walking in fiercely amidst the smoke and dust.
The smoke and dust dissipated, Tie Dan saw the face of the person coming, his body trembled suddenly, his face was full of fear.
The leading man had a particularly upright dark face, sharp features, and tightly pursed thin lips. He looked at them carefully with his eyes, and suddenly pulled the corners of his mouth and laughed, "Okay! I found you! You stinky beggars, want to run after bumping into the old lady? It's not that easy!"
He waved his hand and said, "Take them away!"
Several people rushed forward in an instant, and they wanted to twist their hands behind their backs and hold them tightly.
Ah Hua suddenly fell to the ground, she rolled up her body, clutched her stomach and let out a burst of pain, Xiao Bao also cried loudly, the sound was deafening, resounding throughout the ruined temple, the dangerous wall on the north side fell down again Lots of mud.
The man's eyes flickered, and Xiaobao immediately suppressed his crying, opened his mouth slightly, and cried with tears all over his face, wanting to cry.
Tie Dan wrinkled his face in pain, and shouted in fear, "Master, please forgive me! We really didn't mean it!"
Those people didn't listen at all, and they exerted a little force on their hands, and the two couldn't help crying out in pain.
Gouzi was at a loss, and hurriedly said, "What's going on here? What happened?"
Seeing this, the leading man raised his thick eyebrows and his eyes were extremely sharp, "Aren't you in the same group? Didn't they tell you what good things they did?"
Gouzi immediately looked at Tie Dan, Tie Dan's face was distorted in pain, and he just yelled: "Master, we really didn't mean it, I just wanted to ask the old lady for some money, I didn't want to offend the old lady!"
The man's gaze was like a torch, and he angrily said: "How dare you argue! Now that the old lady is unconscious, if something happens to her, I will ask you guys to be buried with her!"
Tie Dan was terrified after hearing this, and only kept begging for mercy.
Gouzi thought in his heart that it was terrible, seeing how well these people were dressed, he knew that they were not ordinary people.
He couldn't help but hate Tie Dan for causing such a catastrophe again!But until now, there is no way to ignore them!
He had no choice but to say: "Master, please calm down! I am also a doctor, why don't you let me take a look for the old lady, maybe it will be useful!"
The man squinted his eyes slightly, looked him up and down, and said, "A yellow-haired boy dares to speak up! Even an experienced old doctor can't do it, so it's up to you?"
When Tie Dan heard this, he quickly shouted: "He is the apprentice of Zhou Miracle Physician! Why is he like an ordinary doctor! Let him take a look for the old lady, maybe the old lady will wake up!"
Gouzi immediately raised his head and glared at him, Tie Dan immediately lowered his head guiltily, and shut up.
The man's expression was inexplicable, "Miraculous Doctor Zhou? But the Miraculous Doctor Zhou from Zhou's Medical Center?"
When Tie Dan heard that he knew Zhou Jin's fame, he immediately beamed with joy, and nodded quickly, "Yes, yes, yes! It's Zhou Miracle Doctor of Zhou's Medical Center!"
The man squinted his eyes slightly. He had just arrived in the town these few days, and he had also heard about the name of Miracle Doctor Zhou, but he had never seen it before, and he didn't know whether it was true or exaggerated!
He lowered his eyes and thought for a while, Tie Dan and the others were pinned down by those thick men and couldn't move.Xiaobao sat on the ground, hugged A'hua tightly, tears were hanging from the corners of his eyes, it was so pitiful whether he wanted to cry or not.
The man suddenly raised his eyes and stared at Gouzi and said, "Since you are a master of Master Zhou, please go and treat the old lady. If you can't cure it, I will tell you to go and never return!"
Tie Dan and Gou Zi were taken aback, both startled by the threat in his tone.
Gouzi was flustered, and his heart was pounding.How much he weighs, he knows very well, although the master is a genius doctor, he is only a half-doctor, if the old lady's condition is serious, how can he cure it!I'm afraid this time it's more ominous than good!
The man raised his chin behind them, and the servants immediately released them.
Tie Dan wrinkled his face and rubbed his arms, subconsciously looking at Gouzi.
