Magical Medicine in ancient times

"What's going on here? Who guarded the sacred tree last night?"

Xue Peng rushed over and was shocked by the scene in front of him!Immediately, the blood surged up, and a surge of anger rushed straight to the brain.

All the subordinates knelt down in horror.

Xiao Fang climbed up tremblingly, "My lord, last night was the sacred tree guarded by the villain..."

"Bold slave, tell me! What did you do to the sacred tree? You made the sacred tree look like this overnight!"

"My lord, check it out!" Xiao Fang kowtowed to the ground, blood dripping from his forehead, "How dare the villain show the slightest disrespect to the sacred tree! Last night, when the villain watered the sacred tree, it was clearly fine. The villain really doesn’t know! Please forgive me, my lord!”

"You still dare to quibble, the sacred tree was fine yesterday, but it became like this in just one night, if you don't explain it again, don't blame me for being ruthless!"

Xiao Fang was terrified, how could he bear the crime of mutilating the sacred tree, not to mention that it was a birthday present to His Majesty in the capital.If I really bear this charge, I am afraid that the whole family will be charged.

He was terrified in his heart, begging for mercy unceasingly, as if he couldn't even feel the severe pain on his forehead.Blood slid down the corner of his forehead, soaking his eyebrows and eyelashes, and his eyes were blood red.

The people next to him trembled and did not dare to speak out, they could not bear Xiao Fang, but they also feared being implicated.

Imperial Physician Liu stood aside with a gloomy expression. He was depressed and unbearable. The sacred tree withered overnight. If someone with a heart knew it, wouldn't it be his fault!

What's more, with the current situation of Shenshu, he couldn't set off to return to Beijing, and continued to stay here, and there was only an inexplicable anxiety in his heart.

He looked at the weeping man on the ground, feeling extremely unlucky, "This man failed to guard the sacred tree, it is really hateful, Master Xue, why don't you put him in the prison first, and then deal with it! Now it's time to save the sacred tree." important!"

Xue Peng's face turned cold, and he reprimanded: "Come here, drag him down! Put him in the prison and wait for his punishment!"

When Xiao Fang heard it, he felt like falling into an abyss.With a groan, he completely lost his strength and fell limply to the ground.The guard standing quietly at the side immediately stepped forward and dragged down Xiao Fang who was weak all over.

Xue Peng looked at the dead flowers and leaves all over the place, feeling very irritable, "Doctor Liu, what should we do! Now that the sacred tree has suddenly become like this, how can we still send him to the capital to dedicate to His Majesty!"

Unexpectedly, his dream of getting promoted and getting rich was shattered after only one night!The pain in my heart can be imagined.

"Master Xue, is there a gardener who is good at tending flowers and plants around here?"

"I'll send someone to look for it!"

After that, Xue Peng and Imperial Physician Liu recruited almost all the gardeners in Yongning Mansion.

It's just that these gardeners tried various methods, but they couldn't stop the sacred tree from withering.

The leaves on the tree are getting more and more yellow, and if this continues, the whole tree will wither completely.

Imperial Physician Liu and Xue Peng both had extremely bad expressions. Their dark faces made all the gardeners present tremble with fright.

"So many of you are helpless? What are you doing for food!"

Xue Peng was furious, wishing he could throw all these useless people out.

The gardeners shuddered in fright and knelt down on the ground one after another.

One of the older men looked up at Xue Peng and Imperial Physician Liu cautiously, and said in a trembling voice: "Please calm down, my lords, the sacred tree is not an ordinary tree. I heard that the sacred tree dried up overnight. This is really contrary to common sense, you guys are just ordinary flower farmers, there is really no way!" After speaking, he immediately fell to the ground again.

"Maybe it's because the sacred tree can't adapt to the soil here?" A young boy next to him suddenly said softly. His hands were full of soil. He just dug some soil from the roots of the sacred tree to check it out. Fan.

"Nonsense! The sacred tree is not an ordinary tree, how can it rely on this mortal soil!"

Xue Peng was very dissatisfied. Isn't this saying that the soil in his yard made the sacred tree dissatisfied?Can it compare to the soil in the backyard of Zhou's Medical Center?

The boy shrank his head, knelt down on the ground and dared not speak again.

Imperial Physician Liu put his hands behind his back and stared quietly at the sacred tree whose leaves were still falling.

He was full of unwillingness, could it be that the sacred tree withered overnight because it left the Zhou's Medical Center?

His eyes darkened slightly, since the divine tree had come out, he would never send the divine tree back again!

"You guys continue to think of a way! If you can't save the sacred tree, I can't guarantee what will happen to you!"

"My lord..." Several people were shocked and begged for mercy.

However, Imperial Physician Liu didn't look at them any more, he suddenly turned around and left the backyard, unwilling to see the withered state of the sacred tree again.

Now that he was unwilling, his plan to return to Beijing had to be postponed.

After Mr. Xue also left the backyard, several gardeners sat down on the ground.They looked at the tall osmanthus tree with frowns, full of fear and helplessness in their hearts.

"God tree, god tree, if you really have a spirit, please show mercy and save us!"

A gust of wind blew by, bringing the fallen leaves of the trees and flying down.

Sighs intertwined in the rustling wind.

The scorching sun was in the sky, and the hot sun sprinkled on the hot ground.Street vendors are hiding in the shade with their loads on their shoulders, watching passers-by in boredom.

The door of Zhou's Medical Center was tightly closed, and a shadowy place in front of the door was empty, and no one was here to rest in the shade.

Song Neng stood at the door of his shop and looked at the heavy door suspiciously, "It's strange, why the medical center is not open today, have they all traveled far away?"

He shook his head, turned and went back to his shop.

As soon as he entered the door, he saw Ali sitting behind the table and dozing off, his head was shaking little by little.He was furious immediately, stepped forward a few steps, and slapped him on the forehead.

Ali cried out in pain, and when he saw who was coming, his drowsiness disappeared in an instant, "Boss, why are you here!"

"Why did I come here! If I didn't come here, how would I know that you were dozing off in my shop in broad daylight!" As he spoke, he became more and more angry, and stretched out his hands to twist Ali's ears to lift him up from the bench, "You lazy Goods! If you don’t want to do it, get out and don’t be an eyesore to me!”

Ali yelled: "Boss, I don't want to either! It's not that you don't know that the business in the store is bad, and I accidentally get sleepy sitting here!"

"Okay! How dare you talk back!" He continued to exert force on his hands.

Ali immediately weighed his feet and cried out in pain, his whole face wrinkled.

Seeing this, Song Neng finally felt relieved. He let go of his hand and asked, "What's the matter with the medical clinic next door? It's been this hour and it hasn't opened yet! Did you go out to see a doctor?"

Ah Lie was aggrieved as he covered his red ears, and was taken aback when he heard the words, "The door hasn't been opened yet? I didn't see them coming out this morning."

He suddenly widened his eyes, "Could it be that you are still sleeping late?"

He snorted, "Let me just say, on weekdays, when Dr. Zhou was around, he was so diligent. As soon as Dr. Zhou left, he started to be lazy, and he still hasn't opened the door!"

Song Neng stared at him, "You think everyone is as lazy as you! Doctor Xiao Shang is the most diligent!"

Ali grunted dissatisfiedly, "Then why hasn't the door been opened yet! It's already afternoon!"

"Don't tell me something happened?" Song Neng felt a little worried, and he stretched his head to look outside again.

But he happened to see Shang Gui approaching the medical center from afar.

"Look, where is he!" Ali shouted out with sharp eyes.

Shang Gui went home last night, but did not rest in the clinic.In the morning, I went out to treat an old lady again. I was delayed for a whole morning, and only now came back in a hurry.Only to find that the clinic was not open.

He couldn't help frowning, and walked a little faster to the door.

He raised his hand, patted the door and shouted, "Ah Ci, are you there? Open the door!"

"Ah Ci?" There was no movement inside.

He took pictures for a while, but no one responded.

At this moment, he began to panic, the door was locked from the inside, which proved that Ah Ci hadn't gone out!But it still hasn't opened the door yet.

What happened?

Passers-by on the road saw him slamming on the gate with anxious expressions, and stopped in their tracks one after another, looking around curiously.

"Doctor Xiaoshang? What's the matter?" Song Neng came over.

"Uncle Song!" Shang Gui saw a familiar person approaching, and quickly asked, "Did you see Ah Ci come out today?"

Before Song Neng could reply, Ali stuck his head out and said, "I've been sitting here for a whole day, and I haven't seen the medical center open yet!"

Hearing this, Shang Gui became more and more worried, and more sure that something happened to Gouzi!

Suddenly, the door creaked open.

"Ah Ci, why are you..."

"Chen Da?"

Seeing the person behind the door clearly, Shang Gui felt a sense of loss in his heart.

"Doctor Xiao Shang, I heard you knocking on the door outside..." Chen Da stood behind the door with his head covered in gauze.

"Chen Da, have you seen Ah Ci?" Shang Gui walked in directly and scanned the hall, but he didn't see Gouzi.

Chen Da followed behind, with apologetic voice: "I don't know, I just woke up..."

Hearing what he said, Shang Gui quickly walked to the backyard.The yard was also empty, without a single figure.

The door to the room on the right was ajar. He pushed the door open and went in, but saw Gouzi's bed was in a mess, as if he had left temporarily and never came back.

This is so unusual, usually when the dog wakes up, he will fold the bedding very carefully and neatly.

At this moment, he was finally sure that Gouzi was missing!

"Doctor Xiaoshang, what happened here? What happened to Doctor Aci?

"Ah Ci is gone!"

Shang Gui was flustered, and murmured in a low voice: "What's going on? Where did he go?"

"Don't worry, Doctor Xiaoshang! Maybe Doctor A Ci has some urgent business to go out?" At this point, he felt that it was impossible, after all, it is impossible for Doctor A Ci to go out without going through the door!

He was also a little worried, it was really strange that a living person disappeared out of thin air!

"Why don't we go to the Yamen to report to the officials! Let Mr. Xu send someone to look for it..."

"Yes!" Shang Gui rushed out suddenly, "I'm going to the yamen now!"

As soon as he stepped out of the gate, a carriage in front of him drove towards him, and the pedestrians gave way one after another.Then the carriage stopped firmly at the entrance of the medical hall.

The curtain of the car was lifted, revealing Zhou Jin's slightly tired face.

"Ah Jin, you're back!" Shang Gui immediately greeted him happily.His heart that was hanging in the air also fell into reality.

"A Jin, Ah Ci, he..."

Zhou Jin jumped off the carriage, and before he could say a word, another person suddenly emerged from the crowd, as if he had been waiting here for a long time.

He said respectfully, "Excuse me, is this Dr. Zhou?"

"I am, you are..."

"Doctor Zhou, my master is here to invite you to go!"

Zhou Jin's heart is full of the missing Yinzhicao at the moment, and he just wants to ask Shang Gui Gouzi quickly.

He frowned slightly, "Who is your master? Where is it now? If it's not a particularly urgent matter, let me take care of something first..."

Saying that, Zhou Jin was about to go to the medical hall.

The man suddenly stepped forward and grabbed Zhou Jin's arm, and said in a low voice, "Doctor Zhou, my master has been waiting for a long time, please don't delay!"

He pulled Zhou Jin's arm suddenly with such force that Zhou Jin couldn't move for a while.

Zhou Jin was startled, and then he took a closer look at the other party.This person was dressed in ordinary clothes, with a hunched back, and his face seemed to be camouflaged.Although he tried his best to pretend to be an inconspicuous commoner, there was no way to hide those piercing eyes no matter what!Or maybe he didn't want to hide it from Zhou Jin.

His arms are muscular and his fingers are strong. He is clearly a martial artist who has been practicing martial arts all year round!

Shang Gui didn't know the situation. Seeing that Zhou Jin hadn't spoken, he anxiously continued what he had just said: "Ah Jin, Ah Ci is gone!"

"What did you say?"

"I was not in the clinic last night. When I came back just now, I saw the gate of the clinic was closed, but Ah Ci was missing..." Shang Gui blamed himself.

Zhou Jin was agitated for a while, what's the matter!One or two don't stop!

"Doctor Zhou is looking for an apprentice? You don't have to worry, Little Doctor Zhou is now a guest at my master's place, and I'm just waiting for Doctor Zhou to come over!"

Hearing this, Zhou Jin immediately raised his eyes and stared at him.The other party looked directly at Zhou Jin with a smile, as if he didn't see the anger in his eyes at all.Or maybe they don't care at all!

Zhou Jin laughed out loud, it's interesting, this is blatantly threatening him!

The fingers grasping his arm were strong enough that he wouldn't feel any pain, but he couldn't break free either.

He said coldly: "It seems that my apprentice has caused you a lot of trouble! If that's the case, please lead the way!"

Seeing what Zhou Jin said, the man let go of his arm, bowed and said, "Please also ask Dr. Zhou to come with me."

Zhou Jin glanced at him expressionlessly, but the other party didn't care, just turned around and led the way.

Looking at his back, Zhou Jin narrowed his eyes slightly, ordered Shang Gui to stay in the medical hall, and followed behind him.

He led Zhou Jin east and west, and soon turned into a dark path.

Zhou Jin hesitated for a moment, then raised his heels and walked in.

"Host, this person is probably trying to bring you to this inaccessible place to silence you! When did you offend this person?" No. 01 said quietly, with no trace of fear in his tone.

"Aren't you the clearest who I offended?"

"...Host, don't worry, if these people dare to attack you, I will be the first to let them go! No one will touch your hair except me!"

Zhou Jin chuckled, "Thank you so much!"

He was suffocating in his heart all the time, firstly the silver zhicao was lost, and before he had time to rest after the long journey, he found out that his apprentice was also lost!Now he was forcibly invited over by an inexplicable person, it would be strange if he was still calm!

Originally, No. 01 just wanted to relieve the atmosphere, but it had little effect, so he had to shut up silently!
