Cold and warm depend on each other

Chapter 43 Ask the Medicine

What happened after that is not hard to imagine.Liu Tongxi and Su Zhe were trapped on the cliff for several days, and they ate up the dry food they carried with them no matter how economical they were.Su Zhe was injured at first, and the lingering poison was not cleared. She was awake at first, but gradually she became dizzy. When the rain stopped, she was already groggy.

Liu Tongxi looked at the steep cliff of more than ten feet, and tried to climb on the cliff, but the heavy rain for several days made the rocks loose, and the mud and rocks rolled down before he could climb two steps.

As a last resort, he retreated into the canopy of the tree and sighed, almost thinking that he would die here with Su Shaoxia.

Unexpectedly, on the second day after the rain stopped, he vaguely heard someone singing loudly, and hurriedly called for help desperately.A master who went up the mountain to collect herbs discovered them.

Xue Wanxiang quietly listened to those life-and-death trials that she did not experience together with her.

At the end, Liu Tongxi said: "Su Shaoxia must be too weak to wake up. I'll go to the pharmacy to ask a doctor, and let her take a good look at it. Maybe it will be fine."

Xue Wanxiang suddenly said: "Didn't Master Guan send many officers and soldiers to the dense forest in the west of the city to look for you? The big tree you fell was only more than ten feet away from the edge of the cliff, and the officers and soldiers were unable to find the place where the master of medicine gathering could use rattan ropes to rescue you. arrive?"

Liu Tongxi was taken aback for a moment, before he could figure out why, Xue Wanxiang frowned and said, "Even if I didn't expect you to be in the middle of the mountain, at least I should call your names."

"Maybe...can't hear it in the wind and rain?" Liu Tongxi thought for a while, then shook his head in denial: "It shouldn't be."

Xue Wanxiang sneered, and continued to plead solemnly: "Master Liu, I want to ask you to do something."

"Hey, I'm not an adult. I'm just a little deputy leader. If you don't mind, just call me big brother. If you need me to do anything, just say it."

"I would like to ask your help to pay attention to Gao Leize's unusual behavior."

"You're thinking……"

"Brother Liu, my husband was plotted against, and he is still not out of danger. Although I am just a weak woman, I can't let her be bullied like this!" She narrowed her eyes slightly, and there was a trace of coldness in her eyes. Meaning: "Our husband and wife came from afar, and we have no grievances or enmities with Gao Leize. There must be a reason for him to do this. I want to find out the reason, and then find the official to seek justice for my husband!"

"Okay!" Thinking that he was almost in a desperate situation, Liu Tongxi agreed without hesitation.

Half an hour later, Liu Tongxi brought a doctor to knock on the door. The doctor was about forty years old, and he was carrying a small medicine box. On the way, Deputy Chief Liu had already heard what had happened.

Such a young, delicate and elegant boy is actually Su Shaoxia who helped the government capture and kill the murderous bandit. The doctor looked at the young man who was sleeping quietly on the bed, and he couldn't help but pay more respect.

He took the pulse pillow and put it under Su Shaoxia's wrist, with his eyes slightly closed, he felt the pulse with three fingers.After a few breaths, he suddenly opened his eyes, and looked at Mrs. Su who had been waiting by him with surprise.

Xue Wanxiang naturally knew what he meant, and asked with a blushing face: "My husband...she has been falling asleep, I don't know why, is there any hindrance?" While talking, she also looked at the doctor, with a look of pleading in her eyes.

The doctor has been practicing medicine for many years, and he has also seen people from all walks of life pretending to be disguised for various reasons. Seeing this situation, he didn't say anything, he just held his goat's whiskers and pondered for a moment, and asked slowly: "How long has Su Shaoxia been suffering from this symptom? "

Liu Tongxi answered on his behalf.

The doctor asked a few more words, sighed and said, "This is like a disease of leaving the soul."

"Lihun?" Xue Wanxiang was stunned.

She had also heard of this disease when she was in Linhuai City.The sick person had a conflict with his neighbor, was hit on the head by a pole, couldn't wake up, gradually became more and more drowsy, and the medicine stone couldn't get in, and finally passed away.

Her heart groaned violently, and tears fell down in an instant: "Doctor, save her!"

The doctor saw that she was crying pitifully, the tears were crystal clear, rolling down like beads with a broken thread, smashing to pieces on the front of her clothes in an instant.

He has also been a doctor for more than ten years, and he is used to seeing life and death, but looking at it now, he still feels sympathetic and uncomfortable.After deliberating for a while, he said, "There is no way to cure this symptom. Some people wake up naturally after a few days, and some people can't wake up for a lifetime. Hey, don't cry." The doctor was sweating , hastened to comfort him: "I heard from Deputy Chief Liu that Su Shaoxia was not kowtowed, so it was probably caused by being too weak. How about this, I will give you a prescription to strengthen the foundation and cultivate the vitality, mainly using wild ginseng Just continue with your life, if you can survive a few days, maybe it will be fine."

As he spoke, the doctor took out a pen and paper from the medicine box, went to the table and wrote ginseng Guyuan soup. "One pair a day, but one in the morning and one in the evening. I still have some hope if I can drink it."

Xue Wanxiang took it and glanced at it. There were more than ten kinds of items on it, such as wild ginseng, Ophiopogon japonicus, Schisandra chinensis, etc. She was about to thank the doctor, but when she heard him speak like this, her nose felt sore, and tears welled up in her eye sockets.

The doctor and Deputy Chief Liu looked at each other, a little embarrassed.Xue Wanxiang also knew that she had been rude, so she hurriedly turned her face and sniffed, but when she saw Su Zhe who was unknown on the bed, her tears couldn't be stopped, and they fell down again.

Liu Tongxi coughed and said, "I'll follow the doctor to the pharmacy to get the medicine. Madam Su will stay and take care of Su Shaoxia."

The doctor stroked his beard and said yes.Xue Wanxiang took the money with red eyes, but when paying the consultation fee, the doctor insisted on only taking half of it. "Although the old man is in the south of the city for consultation, there are quite a few people in his family living in the west of the city. If it weren't for Young Master Su's chivalry and Bo Yuntian, we would still be in suspense right now. I'll charge the consultation fee, half of it is enough." As he said, he put the silver pieces into his purse, and Xue Wanxiang sent them to the door. The doctor said: "It's cold, don't catch cold. Talk to Su Shaoxia more on weekdays, and tell her what she likes to hear. The old man has seen it before." The man who had been in a coma for half a year was awakened by his wife one by one."

Xue Wanxiang nodded in response, and when the doctor and Deputy Chief Liu led down the wooden building, she turned around and closed the door.

"A Zhe..." Before he could finish speaking, he had a heavy nasal sound.

I want to talk to her, say that these days of separation, she always looks forward to her return, sometimes the wind blows the window creaking, and the neighbor's door closes and opens again, she thinks it is her, and comes back with a smile .

Xue Wanxiang sat on the edge of the bed, and gently stroked Su Zhe's slightly thin cheeks with her slender fingers, across the brows, and across the corners of her lips.The man was still in a deep sleep, she didn't want to be too weak, took Zhang Sipa, wiped the tears on her face, Xue Wanxiang said softly: "I promised you, I will wear the newly bought clothes to welcome you back, you wait for me , I'll change clothes for you."

When the cold wind suddenly picked up, the sunflowers outside the corridor eaves swayed with the wind, falling to the ground in bright purple and deep blue, sparkling like waves.She took out the neatly folded new clothes from the closet, walked behind the screen, and changed the clothes for a while, the lingering, jasmine-colored soft gauze exuded a fresh fragrance.

...I don't even know how to praise you...

……No.It's not that the clothes look good...

...you are beautiful...

One sentence, one sentence, as vivid as yesterday.

Ah Zhe.

Xue Wanxiang slightly curled the corners of her mouth, revealing a sweet smile.I'm wearing the new clothes you bought me that you said you loved.Wake up and see, am I beautiful?

She pursed her lips, smiling like a flower, unaware that a round tear had escaped from her eye socket and dripped onto the tassel.

The doctor's prescription didn't work immediately, or in other words, it warmed and nourished Su Zhe's face gradually became less pale, but after all, she still didn't wake up.

The first thing Xue Wanxiang does when waking up every morning is to massage her arms, legs and feet. Zhe put a soft pillow on his neck and fed her spoonfuls.

A medicine, drink half, go half.Sometimes she would frown and scold her, "Do you want to drink the medicine? If you don't drink it again, I'll pinch your ears!" She pinched her soft and round earlobes as she spoke, and made a gesture of twisting.

But he couldn't bear to use his strength.

"I know this medicine is not good. But good medicine tastes bitter. You will wake up after drinking the medicine. I bought you a new robe. When you wake up, let's try it. Ah Zhe, wake up, okay? Good." She put her arms around her, her voice was flat.

Everything was the same as when she was awake.

It's already deep winter in the month, and although the terrain of Yanzhou City is unique, the days are still getting colder day by day.When the money was about to be exhausted, Liu Tongxi came to the guest house again and offered 300 taels of silver, saying that it was the bounty promised to Su Shaoxia by the official.

"You asked me to pay attention to Gao Leize's unusual situation, and it has not been found yet." Liu Tongxi asked Mrs. Su to collect the money, and sat down at the square table to drink tea.

Xue Wanxiang nodded and said, "I understand. This matter cannot be rushed."

Liu Tongxi said: "But there is another matter, I don't know if it is related to this matter." He paused, and continued: "I heard that a few days ago, before Su Shaoxia and I came back, Mr. Zeng beat the young master hard. Can't get out of bed now..."

Master Zeng, of course it was Xiaoqing.

Xue Wanxiang's heart was clear, but she looked at him with raised eyebrows, and slowly replied: "I don't know. But Gao Leize dared to make such a cruel move, whether there is someone behind him, there is always a trace to follow."

Liu Tongxi nodded straight after hearing this, and suddenly smiled and said: "Madam Su is so clever, if we can think through the case like Madam Su, it will be much easier to handle."

Xue Wanxiang smiled slightly: "It's just a woman's opinion, it's hard to be elegant."

The two exchanged a few more words, and Liu Tongxi went to the side of the bed to look at Su Zhe, then said goodbye and left.

After about half a stick of incense, someone knocked on the door again, and the waiter shouted from outside: "Madam Su, there is...an old gentleman looking for you."

The door of the room was half opened, Xue Wanxiang stood behind the door, and saw that the person who came was an old man whom he had never met, with mixed black and white hair, clear face and sharp eyes, which seemed to be somewhat fairy-like.

"Mrs. Su?" The old gentleman smiled, the fairy wind was gone, and he turned into an old urchin: "I heard that some of you have the disease of leaving the soul? I have cured two of these symptoms, and they are all cured. Can you Let me go in and have a look?"

Xue Wanxiang: ...

"Are you a doctor?"

He didn't even have a medicine box on his back, which seemed unreliable!

"That's right. I'm a medicinal herb." The old man said with a smile, "I like to take a look at strange illnesses. Hmm... I just went to the pharmacy to make medicines, and I heard from the doctor there. "

Xue Wanxiang saw that he didn't look like a bad person, and it was still early in the day, and the waiter in the shop led him up, so after a little thought, he invited him into the house.

The old gentleman caught a glimpse of Su Zhe on the bed as soon as he entered the room, his eyes lit up immediately, just like a child who has seen a novel gadget, he walked up a few steps, and when he reached out his hand, he remembered to ask: "Can I give it to her?" Feel the pulse?"

Xue Wanxiang moved an embroidery pier for him, and said, "Mr. Lao is here.""

The old man was very satisfied, sitting on the embroidered pier, the feeling of immortality returned.

"Huh?" He felt his pulse and tilted his head in doubt.

Xue Wanxiang was a little nervous, her heart was pounding, she wanted to speak, but she was afraid of disturbing his pulse diagnosis.

The old man squinted his eyes, took a few more breaths, and suddenly said in surprise: "This girl ate the pills I made!"
