[Red Mansions] Lin's first genius doctor
Chapter 103
When buying a gas mask, Lin Jiang spent five points to change its shape and turn it into a plain veil. The system is still recommending it. If you spend two more points, you can give her a famous artist on the veil embroidery.
Lin Jiang asked unexpectedly: "Which famous artist, please give me a detailed introduction first."
The system customer service paused for a while, and then said honestly: "It's actually a marketing method."
Lin Jiang found that since she had products to sell to the system, the system seemed to treat her as a further person of her own, and became a lot more honest.
"Are you going to wear a veil?" Gao Qiyu was shocked when he saw that Lin Jiang only took out a thin veil from his sleeve.
Lin Jiang tightened her 'veil' tightly, and when the voice came out, it even brought a little sound insulation effect: "I will check the fog from the outside, it will not go deep, and I will take the detoxification pill." In front of everyone, she swallowed a mouthful Pills.
It was a lozenge, and the Northwest was a bit dry for her.
She glanced at Wei Ren, Wei Ren understood without saying a word, and signaled the team to continue to retreat and wait in the distance, so that Lin Jiang could check the fog by himself.
Holding the toxin analyzer in his hand, Lin Jiang took a step forward, half of his body entered the range of the mist, and waited for the analysis results of the instrument.
"Have you ever seen a red palm-sized single-petal flower on this lonely mountain or in the northwest region?"
Seeing Lin Jiang walking back safely, the team cheered immediately.Sure enough, this valley was regarded as a jedi by the two countries, and the Tai Hospital of the Great Zhou Dynasty did not stop them!
If there is a poisonous miasma on this lonely mountain, only the Grand Hospital of the Great Zhou can master the antidote, then from now on, the Great Zhou can occupy Tongcheng to defend against Beirong, but Beibei can no longer occupy Tongcheng!
Just thinking about it makes the soldiers of the Great Zhou Dynasty excited.
After the cheers were over, everyone stopped and fell silent when they heard that the Lin Yuan was proposing this kind of flower—even though there were many locals from the Northwest in this team, they were all rough men who served as soldiers, and no one paid attention to any flowers and plants at all. , Many people can't even tell the cauliflower in their own yard.
Lin Jiang had already expected it. She took the branch from Wei Ren, found a flat and slightly moist ground, and drew the flower in detail: "This is the antidote."
After she finished drawing, she raised her left hand and showed them a bunch of grass that looked like a hanging copper coin.
She pinched the bunch of grass through her handkerchief: "This is a poisonous weed, a plant like a string of money. It grows all over the mountains and plains all year round, emitting a kind of poisonous mist. Because of the terrain of the isolated mountain, the mist gathers and does not disperse." .”
As she spoke, more than a hundred people who were originally surrounded by her took two steps back in unison, and Gao Qiyu jumped out directly.
Lin Jiang said with a smile: "The tiny content of this grass does not matter." Then she asked all the soldiers to look for this kind of red flower that can detoxify on the edge of the poisonous miasma and the edge of the lonely mountain.All things are natural, not far from this poisonous weed, there should be this kind of safflower.
But she herself came to a corner with a 'anti-virus veil' and said to Wei Ren: "You help me light a fire here, I want to cook this poisonous weed."
Wei Ren lit a fire skillfully with flint and asked, "Are you suspecting that this poisonous miasma is not only caused by natural vegetation?"
Lin Jiang nodded: "The concentration of this toxin is too high. If it wasn't for man-made, the inner circumference of this lonely mountain might be covered with this kind of money grass."
Wei Ren lit a fire for her, fetched a small pot from the team, and then pulled Gao Qiyu who came over to look around to find Honghua together.
While cooking grass, Lin Jiang thought, it would be great if the senior Poison King was here. This is his specialty, and it may be obvious at a glance.
After measuring the toxin concentration, Lin Jiang was able to confirm that the poisonous miasma was not purely natural, and there were indeed people hiding in this lonely mountain.
"Young Lord, the team will be handed over to you. If the entire mountain is covered in poisonous fog and we cannot find a way, we will definitely come out within two hours. If there is a safe zone inside, the delay may be longer. You are here Don't worry outside."
Gao Qiyu watched Lin Jiang and Wei Ren prepare to go deep into the mountains together, and really wanted to follow.
Lin Jiang persuaded him to stay in the battle, and promised that if he found a foreign race, he would definitely let him use his social talent to deal with them.This is not Gao Qiyu's boasting. Lin Changzhou also said that this young master is very good at interacting with other races, and has a natural temperament to mingle with others.
Before entering the mountain range, Lin Jiang turned on her system and took a look: her [Exotic Favorability buff], a small halo sign, was quite bright.
If you meet a foreign race, unless you are born to hate humans, with her brightness, you can rely on the favorability brought by the halo to complete the initial communication.
Lin Jiang handed Wei Ren a snow lotus pill: "Keep it in your mouth." He adjusted the 'anti-virus veil' tighter, and even felt a slight constriction, and only then did he really walk into this poisonous miasma.
Lin Jiangyuan thought that the alien race in this lonely mountain would be like the savages wearing animal skins in Gao Qiyu's books.
She never thought that she would meet a girl who was dressed like herself, wearing the most common cloth dress in the northwest of Dazhou, with hairpin flowers on her hair, and even speaking in Dazhou dialect with almost no accent.
The moment the girl discovered the two, she immediately put the feather arrow on the bow, and said to the two of them vigilantly: "Are you from Da Zhou or Bei Rong? How did you get in?"
Wei Ren stood in front of Lin Jiang.
Lin Jiang patted him: "You are blocking my aura."
Wei Ren:?
Lin Jiang was also afraid that the girl's arrow would be let go, so he leaned out from behind Wei Ren and talked to the girl: "We are from Dazhou, can we talk?"
The girl in commoner clothes saw Lin Jiang's face through the already thinned white mist, and for some reason, a feeling of trust surged in her heart, she hesitated halfway down her bow and arrow, and then muttered: "That's all, No matter which side you are from, it doesn’t matter if you find us.”
"However, this fog zone can't stay for long, you guys come with me."
She turned her head and looked at Lin Jiang with a little shyness: "Sister, you can call me A Miao."
-
Decades ago, a small and declining tribe in Beirong was occupied by other tribes and was about to be exterminated. The leader of the tribe led the only remaining tribe members to the city in the dark with the will to die. The "dead mountain" in the population of Beirong.
In their hearts, it is better for the whole family to die in this poisonous miasma than to die under the sword of the enemy and have their women and children taken as captives.
Because there were cavalrymen chasing after them, they fled in a hurry and broke into the depths of this lonely mountain all the way.
At this point, the girl A Miao raised her finger to the dense forest above her head: "Have you seen this kind of dense trees with red flowers attached? Maybe it's because of the undulating mountains, maybe it's because of these red flowers, this lonely mountain is so deep. There is no poisonous miasma here."
It's just that the refugees like them who rushed in suddenly back then had already inhaled a lot of poisonous miasma on the road, killing and injuring a small part of the clan.
Fortunately, a witch doctor in their clan discovered it in time. After taking a large amount of this red flower, it could cure the poisonous miasma produced by this plant and saved the lives of the rest of the clan.
So far, the remaining hundreds of remnants of the tribe are hidden in this mountain.
"We discovered the secret of poisonous miasma and detoxification in the mountains, and we can freely enter and exit the mountains. But what we are most afraid of is that people outside know this secret. So we collected the seeds of copper money grass, planted more copper money grass, and even According to the direction of the wind, dig a pit and boil a large amount of herbs to aggravate the poisonous miasma, so that people outside are afraid to come in."
"Those savages who were seen by chance..." Lin Jiang suddenly asked when he heard this: "Did your people pretend to be themselves?"
A Miao smiled and said: "Yes, people outside are always curious. Sometimes the weather is bad, and the wind and rain temporarily disperse the poisonous miasma outside, so there will always be people who want to go into the mountain, so we have to do something wrong."
Lin Jiangqi said: "But it's not a problem that you have been hiding in this mountain. After so many years, you can go back to Beirong and live in Dazhou. You should not be discovered."
A Miao's appearance is no different from that of a woman from the Great Zhou Dynasty, if her people also have this appearance, they will not be seen as abnormal at all.
The girl smiled like a cheerful lark, with a very pleasant crispness: "Yes, our appearance is indeed more like your Han people. According to my grandfather, this is also when we were in Beirong, and the other tribes always bullied us. Because of this, they see us as aliens."
"Since Bei Rong doesn't want us, we prefer to be people of Da Zhou. The people of Da Zhou live in a more stable and prosperous life. I never heard that the cities in Da Zhou would seize the land of their neighbors because of their strength."
"So our clansmen have all gone to Dazhou one by one."
There was a tinge of pride in her tone, a sense of pride in the wisdom of her ancestors.
"The reason why I am willing to bring you here is because it doesn't matter anymore. It doesn't matter whether the people of Dazhou or Beirong found us." With grandfather, all our clansmen have safely entered the state of Dazhou and become official Dazhou people." He also specially emphasized: "The one with household registration!"
Wei Ren and Lin Jiang couldn't help being slightly startled when they heard the words.
A Miao obviously rarely had the opportunity to talk to people, she continued proudly: "Grandfather said that in the beginning, our clansmen took out all the gold and silver belongings that were left with us, and then gathered in Dazhou to speak the best words." Let them go out of the lonely mountain and enter the realm of the Great Zhou."
"It took them a lot of thought to buy a few household registrations from the officials of Dazhou." Lin Jiang could imagine how they did it when she heard this.
One life two, two beget three, three beget all things.
With these few 'Da Zhou people' as a base, the rest will be easy. They can use this Da Zhou household registration to buy fields and houses, and then integrate into Da Zhou and start living.
Afterwards, it was only natural that a few "villages were plundered by Bei Rong, refugees who escaped" relatives who needed to apply for new household registration.
It may not be easy to take the first step, but as more and more clan members have Dazhou household registration, the people hidden in the deep mountains will find a suitable identity to reapply for household registration.
When the first few people who walked out of Dazhou were already in groups of children, all the ethnic groups in this lonely mountain finally came out, standing in the sun dignifiedly, from the abandoned people of Beibei to the big Zhou's people.
Ju A Miao said that for the sake of safety, they even scattered in several towns around the northwest, and no longer communicated with each other, but carefully carried the past to live.
Therefore, A Miao told Lin Jiang about these operations at this moment, and she was not afraid at all: Times have changed, decades have passed, their clansmen are like water returning to the ocean, and there are no traces to follow.
And their descendants will not know this at all. They have been legitimate Dazhou people since birth.
Wei Ren thought in his heart: It is time to investigate the matter of the Northwest local officials buying and selling household registrations. It is estimated that Chief Zhou Qianfu who went to the capital to frame him got his household registration in this way.
After hearing the story, Lin Jiangtuo couldn't help wondering: "Since all of your clansmen have left safely, why do you still stay in this poisonous miasma in the lonely mountain?" Living here is definitely not as convenient as going outside.
Pointing to her dress, the girl said: "I have actually gone out, and my parents are also outside, but my grandfather can't leave here, so I prefer to stay with his old man and take care of his daily life. "
"Can't leave here?" Lin Jiang suddenly understood: "Is your grandfather that witch doctor back then?"
The girl was pleasantly surprised: "How did you guess that?"
Lin Jiang looked at the dense forest and red flowers and said: "If a person's body is used to a certain toxin for a long time, it will not be able to bear it once it leaves. That witch doctor was able to find the antidote so quickly, it must be because of the deep poisoning, and the I personally tried safflower and found that it can be used as an antidote."
The girl nodded: "Yes, some of the ancestors of the clan died back then, and some survived after being detoxified. Only grandfather, because of too many tests, became a man who survived but couldn't live without this poison." Fog people."
Lin Jiang got up and patted her skirt: "After listening to the story, can you take me to see the old witch doctor?" Before the girl refused, Lin Jiang looked into her eyes and said sincerely: "Trust me, I can cure the poison on his body , so that he can go out and see the outside world just like you.”
"He discovered the toxin of copper money grass, discovered the antidote of safflower, and saved your people. There is no reason for him to be trapped on this lonely mountain for the rest of his life."
The girl looked at her and couldn't say anything. She just thought: I shouldn't bring strangers to see my grandfather, but this sister in front of me looks so sincere, and what she said makes sense!Her eyes are really beautiful!
If it is said that when Lin Jiang saw the old witch doctor, he moved the girl with the aura of goodwill, then after she cured the old witch doctor, cleared his body of toxins and years of asthma, the girl's goodwill towards her It's just full.
"Oh my God, are you a doctor?" She looked at Lin Jiang and said, "When I was outside, I heard that there was a medical clinic in the capital of Dazhou that recruited female doctors, and even the imperial hospital of this generation is just a woman, sister, With such good medical skills, you should not stay in the northwest, you should go to the capital!"
Lin Jiang turned around and smiled at her.
The old witch doctor who suddenly gained health looked at his granddaughter and said helplessly, "My child, didn't you hear that, doesn't this woman doctor speak with a Northwest accent?" , but I like to listen to things outside, and these grandchildren are also filial, and whenever they come to the mountains, they will talk to me."
"The official voice of the capital of the Great Zhou Dynasty, with such medical skills, are you the female director of the Imperial Hospital, or her disciple?"
Lin Jiang got up and saluted: "Junior Lin Jiang, I have met senior."
The old witch doctor looked her up and down, and said with a smile: "When I was a young man and just took over the mantle of master as a doctor, I suddenly heard that your court of the Great Zhou Dynasty was not allowed to have a women's doctor's clinic. Master is a female witch doctor who secretly went to Da Zhou to learn some medical skills."
"I didn't expect that in my lifetime, I could actually see a court lady from Dazhou with my own eyes."
Lin Jiang said with a smile: "Senior, you can go to the Dazhou Capital Medical Center for advice at any time."
The old witch doctor had deep wrinkles and looked frighteningly old.He narrowed his eyes and shook his head and said, "I'm old, it's enough to go out and see what I will look like decades later." He looked at Wei Ren in military uniform, and then turned to look at Lin Jiang: " But don't worry, you two, our grandparents will wait until the war between the two sides is over before going out from this deep mountain."
The girl was still a little ignorant: "Grandfather, you are cured, why don't we go? Parents must be very happy to know!"
The old witch doctor shook his head: "Stupid boy, there is a war going on outside, and this general and an imperial court officer actually came into this lonely mountain. They must want to take this road to bypass Tongcheng. We promise If I leave the valley at this moment and let the clansmen outside know about it, I will feel that the secrets in the mountain don’t need to be guarded, and I will tell you something about the isolated mountain. I'm afraid it will cause trouble to Lin Yuanzheng."
Only then did the girl suddenly realize: "Yes, it is precisely because my grandfather has been unable to leave here, and all the people in the clan are grateful for my grandfather's life-saving grace, so I swear with blood that I will never reveal the secrets of Gushan, otherwise I will be abandoned by the gods."
Lin Jiang got up again and thanked this kind old witch doctor.
The old witch doctor waved his hand and said, "It's nothing. I think you two are not the only ones who want to cross the mountain. You need a lot of red flowers. Although there are red flowers around this lonely mountain, they are only here and there. I'm afraid it's not enough for you." When the girl heard this, she immediately got up and said, "Grandfather, we have so many red flowers that we can't use them all up."
The old witch doctor nodded and smiled: "Yes, these years, I have been stuck here and I can't get out, and I have made a lot of pills and ointments, which are all donated to Lin Yuanzheng. From today on, we will no longer boil copper money grass Increase the poisonous miasma, and after a few days, the original fog in this mountain will be limited. Only these red flowers are enough for hundreds of people to pass through the lonely mountain."
"We survivors are not Beirong people, nor are they completely Dazhou people. But we understand in our hearts that the fault is the Beirong who invaded the land of Dazhou, just like the Xihe tribe once invaded our tribe."
How many years have passed, and the war for plunder is still so disgusting. The old witch doctor sighed: "I only hope that the northern soldiers will be defeated and return to Mobei, so as to save the suffering of the people of the two countries."
Gao Qiyu waited anxiously outside, kept turning in circles, he turned a hole in the slightly damp ground.
The whole team became more and more silent.
They have searched the neighborhood separately and found five safflower plants that fit Lin Yuanzheng's painting. They didn't dare to pick them directly for fear of damaging the treasure, so they made a mark, and then returned to the original place to gather, and waited. General Wei and Lin Yuan are coming out.
But two hours passed, and there was no movement at all.
Time passed quietly, and when the sun set in the west, almost a day had passed, and it was almost four hours.
Gao Qiyu wished he had grown wings and flew in to have a look.
The Eighth Prince, who was among the ordinary soldiers, also pursed his lips. Perhaps he had resented Wei Ren and Lin Jiang before, but at this moment, he really hoped that they would come out intact.
"You guys are going to scare me to death!"
When the last ray of the sun fell, two figures came out from the white mist, and Gao Qiyu almost rushed over the safety line drawn by Lin Jiang.
"Why have you been here for so long? Is there really a tribe in there? Why have you been fighting for so long?" Gao Qiyu kept asking like a cannonball.
Lin Jiang reached out and patted the big bag on Wei Bian's back. It was full of various safflower products, from pills taken orally, to anti-gas plasters that were applied around the eyes, ears, mouth, nose, and dried. There are all kinds of dried flowers to disperse the poisonous miasma. With these medicines, they will get twice the result with half the effort.
So Lin Jiang smiled at Gao Qiyu: "These words can be explained on the way - we can enter the lonely mountain now."
"You can't pick all the safflowers, you need sustainable development." These 100 people entered Gushan, and did not pass directly to Beirong, but came to the hollow safety zone, and under Lin Jiang's arrangement, they started working Climbing trees and picking flowers, and then picking and grinding the flowers in batches to make pills.
Wei Ren and Gao Qiyu were on the ground beside them, and each took a branch to discuss how many people would be most appropriate to cross the lonely mountain: it would be too dangerous to intercept Beirong's food and payment convoy if there were fewer people, and it was very likely It was rounded up by the people who came out of the Beirong royal court; but it is unrealistic for the army to walk from the lonely mountain. Firstly, the number of red flowers is not enough, and secondly, it is too easy to arouse Beirong's vigilance.
The old witch doctor and Lin Jiang each stared at an assembly line: the old witch doctor watched them pick the right flowers, and Lin Jiang watched them grind and pack them.
Gao Qiyu came over and asked, "Is the medicine for 3000 people available?"
Lin Jiang calculated silently in his heart: "I'm a little nervous. There was no problem in the past, but with the return trip, it's not enough."
Wei Ren also came over: "The 2000 people are enough."
In the past many years, Tongcheng has been in the hands of Da Zhou, so the tribes of Beirong are actually a certain distance from Tongcheng.As long as they are concealed enough and fast enough to intercept the Beirong food transportation team and encircle the city, the reinforcements in the Beirong King's Court will not even be able to keep up with the support.
—
King Beirong stood on the tallest watchtower in Tongcheng.
Looking out from the highest point of the city, he had a very good view, and he could see the land of Da Zhou and the army of Da Zhou.And in his vision, he even saw the prosperous capital of the Great Zhou Dynasty, the emperor's throne high above the palace.
In the fertile land of the Central Plains, those who can live there.
He thinks he is no worse than anyone in the world, and the people of Beirong are also stronger and more powerful than those Han people who only know the culture. The strong occupy more land and more wealth, shouldn't they?
"The team for transporting food and salaries didn't arrive on time?" King Beirong looked at the general who came to report the letter, and felt gloomy in his heart.
This is not the first time.
Bei Rong really has no food left.He really didn't expect that Da Zhou, the Duke of Li, would actually start a war of attrition with him regardless of his official name and dignity.
Isn't this Li Guogong afraid of being held accountable by the court?After all, except for the two points of military exploits in the first battle, in the past six months, Li Guogong has completely brought an army to reclaim wasteland.
Did the court of the Great Zhou really just sit back and watch?
The king of Beirong became more and more jealous of the prosperity and waste of the Great Zhou. The emperor of the Great Zhou did not care about raising such an army that did not dare to take the initiative to attack. After raising it for half a year, the envious eyes of the King of Beirong really bleed.
"Tell them to be smarter, short-sighted things." The king of Beirong gritted his teeth, referring to some tribes in Beirong who did not obey him.
When he attacked the Great Zhou, many newly surrendered tribes disapproved, but they dared not expressly oppose it.The King of Beirong also knew that each of their tribes must have stored food for their own tribesmen, and refused to use it to support him in the war.
In the past, for the sake of stability, the King of Beirong just turned a blind eye and closed his eyes, but now when it is critical, the King of Beirong decided to urge them with ruthless hands and let them bleed.
He was even thinking about temporarily handing over the city to the generals next to him, and he himself returned to the Beirong territory to "requisition food" in person.
It's just...he hasn't decided who to hand over Tongcheng to.
But soon, the King of Beirong didn't have to worry about it anymore.
"Report—the Great Zhou army started to call out, and it seems that they are about to attack the city!"
Lin Jiang asked unexpectedly: "Which famous artist, please give me a detailed introduction first."
The system customer service paused for a while, and then said honestly: "It's actually a marketing method."
Lin Jiang found that since she had products to sell to the system, the system seemed to treat her as a further person of her own, and became a lot more honest.
"Are you going to wear a veil?" Gao Qiyu was shocked when he saw that Lin Jiang only took out a thin veil from his sleeve.
Lin Jiang tightened her 'veil' tightly, and when the voice came out, it even brought a little sound insulation effect: "I will check the fog from the outside, it will not go deep, and I will take the detoxification pill." In front of everyone, she swallowed a mouthful Pills.
It was a lozenge, and the Northwest was a bit dry for her.
She glanced at Wei Ren, Wei Ren understood without saying a word, and signaled the team to continue to retreat and wait in the distance, so that Lin Jiang could check the fog by himself.
Holding the toxin analyzer in his hand, Lin Jiang took a step forward, half of his body entered the range of the mist, and waited for the analysis results of the instrument.

As she spoke, more than a hundred people who were originally surrounded by her took two steps back in unison, and Gao Qiyu jumped out directly.
Lin Jiang said with a smile: "The tiny content of this grass does not matter." Then she asked all the soldiers to look for this kind of red flower that can detoxify on the edge of the poisonous miasma and the edge of the lonely mountain.All things are natural, not far from this poisonous weed, there should be this kind of safflower.
But she herself came to a corner with a 'anti-virus veil' and said to Wei Ren: "You help me light a fire here, I want to cook this poisonous weed."
Wei Ren lit a fire skillfully with flint and asked, "Are you suspecting that this poisonous miasma is not only caused by natural vegetation?"

Gao Qiyu watched Lin Jiang and Wei Ren prepare to go deep into the mountains together, and really wanted to follow.
Lin Jiang persuaded him to stay in the battle, and promised that if he found a foreign race, he would definitely let him use his social talent to deal with them.This is not Gao Qiyu's boasting. Lin Changzhou also said that this young master is very good at interacting with other races, and has a natural temperament to mingle with others.

Lin Jiangyuan thought that the alien race in this lonely mountain would be like the savages wearing animal skins in Gao Qiyu's books.
She never thought that she would meet a girl who was dressed like herself, wearing the most common cloth dress in the northwest of Dazhou, with hairpin flowers on her hair, and even speaking in Dazhou dialect with almost no accent.
The moment the girl discovered the two, she immediately put the feather arrow on the bow, and said to the two of them vigilantly: "Are you from Da Zhou or Bei Rong? How did you get in?"
Wei Ren stood in front of Lin Jiang.
Lin Jiang patted him: "You are blocking my aura."
Wei Ren:?
Lin Jiang was also afraid that the girl's arrow would be let go, so he leaned out from behind Wei Ren and talked to the girl: "We are from Dazhou, can we talk?"
The girl in commoner clothes saw Lin Jiang's face through the already thinned white mist, and for some reason, a feeling of trust surged in her heart, she hesitated halfway down her bow and arrow, and then muttered: "That's all, No matter which side you are from, it doesn’t matter if you find us.”
"However, this fog zone can't stay for long, you guys come with me."
She turned her head and looked at Lin Jiang with a little shyness: "Sister, you can call me A Miao."
-
Decades ago, a small and declining tribe in Beirong was occupied by other tribes and was about to be exterminated. The leader of the tribe led the only remaining tribe members to the city in the dark with the will to die. The "dead mountain" in the population of Beirong.

"Since Bei Rong doesn't want us, we prefer to be people of Da Zhou. The people of Da Zhou live in a more stable and prosperous life. I never heard that the cities in Da Zhou would seize the land of their neighbors because of their strength."
"So our clansmen have all gone to Dazhou one by one."
There was a tinge of pride in her tone, a sense of pride in the wisdom of her ancestors.
"The reason why I am willing to bring you here is because it doesn't matter anymore. It doesn't matter whether the people of Dazhou or Beirong found us." With grandfather, all our clansmen have safely entered the state of Dazhou and become official Dazhou people." He also specially emphasized: "The one with household registration!"
Wei Ren and Lin Jiang couldn't help being slightly startled when they heard the words.
A Miao obviously rarely had the opportunity to talk to people, she continued proudly: "Grandfather said that in the beginning, our clansmen took out all the gold and silver belongings that were left with us, and then gathered in Dazhou to speak the best words." Let them go out of the lonely mountain and enter the realm of the Great Zhou."
"It took them a lot of thought to buy a few household registrations from the officials of Dazhou." Lin Jiang could imagine how they did it when she heard this.
One life two, two beget three, three beget all things.
With these few 'Da Zhou people' as a base, the rest will be easy. They can use this Da Zhou household registration to buy fields and houses, and then integrate into Da Zhou and start living.
Afterwards, it was only natural that a few "villages were plundered by Bei Rong, refugees who escaped" relatives who needed to apply for new household registration.
It may not be easy to take the first step, but as more and more clan members have Dazhou household registration, the people hidden in the deep mountains will find a suitable identity to reapply for household registration.
When the first few people who walked out of Dazhou were already in groups of children, all the ethnic groups in this lonely mountain finally came out, standing in the sun dignifiedly, from the abandoned people of Beibei to the big Zhou's people.
Ju A Miao said that for the sake of safety, they even scattered in several towns around the northwest, and no longer communicated with each other, but carefully carried the past to live.
Therefore, A Miao told Lin Jiang about these operations at this moment, and she was not afraid at all: Times have changed, decades have passed, their clansmen are like water returning to the ocean, and there are no traces to follow.
And their descendants will not know this at all. They have been legitimate Dazhou people since birth.
Wei Ren thought in his heart: It is time to investigate the matter of the Northwest local officials buying and selling household registrations. It is estimated that Chief Zhou Qianfu who went to the capital to frame him got his household registration in this way.
After hearing the story, Lin Jiangtuo couldn't help wondering: "Since all of your clansmen have left safely, why do you still stay in this poisonous miasma in the lonely mountain?" Living here is definitely not as convenient as going outside.
Pointing to her dress, the girl said: "I have actually gone out, and my parents are also outside, but my grandfather can't leave here, so I prefer to stay with his old man and take care of his daily life. "
"Can't leave here?" Lin Jiang suddenly understood: "Is your grandfather that witch doctor back then?"
The girl was pleasantly surprised: "How did you guess that?"
Lin Jiang looked at the dense forest and red flowers and said: "If a person's body is used to a certain toxin for a long time, it will not be able to bear it once it leaves. That witch doctor was able to find the antidote so quickly, it must be because of the deep poisoning, and the I personally tried safflower and found that it can be used as an antidote."
The girl nodded: "Yes, some of the ancestors of the clan died back then, and some survived after being detoxified. Only grandfather, because of too many tests, became a man who survived but couldn't live without this poison." Fog people."
Lin Jiang got up and patted her skirt: "After listening to the story, can you take me to see the old witch doctor?" Before the girl refused, Lin Jiang looked into her eyes and said sincerely: "Trust me, I can cure the poison on his body , so that he can go out and see the outside world just like you.”
"He discovered the toxin of copper money grass, discovered the antidote of safflower, and saved your people. There is no reason for him to be trapped on this lonely mountain for the rest of his life."
The girl looked at her and couldn't say anything. She just thought: I shouldn't bring strangers to see my grandfather, but this sister in front of me looks so sincere, and what she said makes sense!Her eyes are really beautiful!
If it is said that when Lin Jiang saw the old witch doctor, he moved the girl with the aura of goodwill, then after she cured the old witch doctor, cleared his body of toxins and years of asthma, the girl's goodwill towards her It's just full.
"Oh my God, are you a doctor?" She looked at Lin Jiang and said, "When I was outside, I heard that there was a medical clinic in the capital of Dazhou that recruited female doctors, and even the imperial hospital of this generation is just a woman, sister, With such good medical skills, you should not stay in the northwest, you should go to the capital!"
Lin Jiang turned around and smiled at her.
The old witch doctor who suddenly gained health looked at his granddaughter and said helplessly, "My child, didn't you hear that, doesn't this woman doctor speak with a Northwest accent?" , but I like to listen to things outside, and these grandchildren are also filial, and whenever they come to the mountains, they will talk to me."
"The official voice of the capital of the Great Zhou Dynasty, with such medical skills, are you the female director of the Imperial Hospital, or her disciple?"
Lin Jiang got up and saluted: "Junior Lin Jiang, I have met senior."
The old witch doctor looked her up and down, and said with a smile: "When I was a young man and just took over the mantle of master as a doctor, I suddenly heard that your court of the Great Zhou Dynasty was not allowed to have a women's doctor's clinic. Master is a female witch doctor who secretly went to Da Zhou to learn some medical skills."
"I didn't expect that in my lifetime, I could actually see a court lady from Dazhou with my own eyes."
Lin Jiang said with a smile: "Senior, you can go to the Dazhou Capital Medical Center for advice at any time."
The old witch doctor had deep wrinkles and looked frighteningly old.He narrowed his eyes and shook his head and said, "I'm old, it's enough to go out and see what I will look like decades later." He looked at Wei Ren in military uniform, and then turned to look at Lin Jiang: " But don't worry, you two, our grandparents will wait until the war between the two sides is over before going out from this deep mountain."
The girl was still a little ignorant: "Grandfather, you are cured, why don't we go? Parents must be very happy to know!"
The old witch doctor shook his head: "Stupid boy, there is a war going on outside, and this general and an imperial court officer actually came into this lonely mountain. They must want to take this road to bypass Tongcheng. We promise If I leave the valley at this moment and let the clansmen outside know about it, I will feel that the secrets in the mountain don’t need to be guarded, and I will tell you something about the isolated mountain. I'm afraid it will cause trouble to Lin Yuanzheng."
Only then did the girl suddenly realize: "Yes, it is precisely because my grandfather has been unable to leave here, and all the people in the clan are grateful for my grandfather's life-saving grace, so I swear with blood that I will never reveal the secrets of Gushan, otherwise I will be abandoned by the gods."
Lin Jiang got up again and thanked this kind old witch doctor.
The old witch doctor waved his hand and said, "It's nothing. I think you two are not the only ones who want to cross the mountain. You need a lot of red flowers. Although there are red flowers around this lonely mountain, they are only here and there. I'm afraid it's not enough for you." When the girl heard this, she immediately got up and said, "Grandfather, we have so many red flowers that we can't use them all up."
The old witch doctor nodded and smiled: "Yes, these years, I have been stuck here and I can't get out, and I have made a lot of pills and ointments, which are all donated to Lin Yuanzheng. From today on, we will no longer boil copper money grass Increase the poisonous miasma, and after a few days, the original fog in this mountain will be limited. Only these red flowers are enough for hundreds of people to pass through the lonely mountain."
"We survivors are not Beirong people, nor are they completely Dazhou people. But we understand in our hearts that the fault is the Beirong who invaded the land of Dazhou, just like the Xihe tribe once invaded our tribe."
How many years have passed, and the war for plunder is still so disgusting. The old witch doctor sighed: "I only hope that the northern soldiers will be defeated and return to Mobei, so as to save the suffering of the people of the two countries."
Gao Qiyu waited anxiously outside, kept turning in circles, he turned a hole in the slightly damp ground.
The whole team became more and more silent.
They have searched the neighborhood separately and found five safflower plants that fit Lin Yuanzheng's painting. They didn't dare to pick them directly for fear of damaging the treasure, so they made a mark, and then returned to the original place to gather, and waited. General Wei and Lin Yuan are coming out.
But two hours passed, and there was no movement at all.
Time passed quietly, and when the sun set in the west, almost a day had passed, and it was almost four hours.
Gao Qiyu wished he had grown wings and flew in to have a look.
The Eighth Prince, who was among the ordinary soldiers, also pursed his lips. Perhaps he had resented Wei Ren and Lin Jiang before, but at this moment, he really hoped that they would come out intact.
"You guys are going to scare me to death!"
When the last ray of the sun fell, two figures came out from the white mist, and Gao Qiyu almost rushed over the safety line drawn by Lin Jiang.
"Why have you been here for so long? Is there really a tribe in there? Why have you been fighting for so long?" Gao Qiyu kept asking like a cannonball.
Lin Jiang reached out and patted the big bag on Wei Bian's back. It was full of various safflower products, from pills taken orally, to anti-gas plasters that were applied around the eyes, ears, mouth, nose, and dried. There are all kinds of dried flowers to disperse the poisonous miasma. With these medicines, they will get twice the result with half the effort.
So Lin Jiang smiled at Gao Qiyu: "These words can be explained on the way - we can enter the lonely mountain now."
"You can't pick all the safflowers, you need sustainable development." These 100 people entered Gushan, and did not pass directly to Beirong, but came to the hollow safety zone, and under Lin Jiang's arrangement, they started working Climbing trees and picking flowers, and then picking and grinding the flowers in batches to make pills.
Wei Ren and Gao Qiyu were on the ground beside them, and each took a branch to discuss how many people would be most appropriate to cross the lonely mountain: it would be too dangerous to intercept Beirong's food and payment convoy if there were fewer people, and it was very likely It was rounded up by the people who came out of the Beirong royal court; but it is unrealistic for the army to walk from the lonely mountain. Firstly, the number of red flowers is not enough, and secondly, it is too easy to arouse Beirong's vigilance.
The old witch doctor and Lin Jiang each stared at an assembly line: the old witch doctor watched them pick the right flowers, and Lin Jiang watched them grind and pack them.
Gao Qiyu came over and asked, "Is the medicine for 3000 people available?"
Lin Jiang calculated silently in his heart: "I'm a little nervous. There was no problem in the past, but with the return trip, it's not enough."
Wei Ren also came over: "The 2000 people are enough."
In the past many years, Tongcheng has been in the hands of Da Zhou, so the tribes of Beirong are actually a certain distance from Tongcheng.As long as they are concealed enough and fast enough to intercept the Beirong food transportation team and encircle the city, the reinforcements in the Beirong King's Court will not even be able to keep up with the support.
—
King Beirong stood on the tallest watchtower in Tongcheng.
Looking out from the highest point of the city, he had a very good view, and he could see the land of Da Zhou and the army of Da Zhou.And in his vision, he even saw the prosperous capital of the Great Zhou Dynasty, the emperor's throne high above the palace.
In the fertile land of the Central Plains, those who can live there.
He thinks he is no worse than anyone in the world, and the people of Beirong are also stronger and more powerful than those Han people who only know the culture. The strong occupy more land and more wealth, shouldn't they?
"The team for transporting food and salaries didn't arrive on time?" King Beirong looked at the general who came to report the letter, and felt gloomy in his heart.
This is not the first time.
Bei Rong really has no food left.He really didn't expect that Da Zhou, the Duke of Li, would actually start a war of attrition with him regardless of his official name and dignity.
Isn't this Li Guogong afraid of being held accountable by the court?After all, except for the two points of military exploits in the first battle, in the past six months, Li Guogong has completely brought an army to reclaim wasteland.
Did the court of the Great Zhou really just sit back and watch?
The king of Beirong became more and more jealous of the prosperity and waste of the Great Zhou. The emperor of the Great Zhou did not care about raising such an army that did not dare to take the initiative to attack. After raising it for half a year, the envious eyes of the King of Beirong really bleed.
"Tell them to be smarter, short-sighted things." The king of Beirong gritted his teeth, referring to some tribes in Beirong who did not obey him.
When he attacked the Great Zhou, many newly surrendered tribes disapproved, but they dared not expressly oppose it.The King of Beirong also knew that each of their tribes must have stored food for their own tribesmen, and refused to use it to support him in the war.
In the past, for the sake of stability, the King of Beirong just turned a blind eye and closed his eyes, but now when it is critical, the King of Beirong decided to urge them with ruthless hands and let them bleed.
He was even thinking about temporarily handing over the city to the generals next to him, and he himself returned to the Beirong territory to "requisition food" in person.
It's just...he hasn't decided who to hand over Tongcheng to.
But soon, the King of Beirong didn't have to worry about it anymore.
"Report—the Great Zhou army started to call out, and it seems that they are about to attack the city!"
