Chapter 30 Injury is the beginning of friendship!
In the afternoon, the two finally arrived at Wangshui County. Zou Han, the owner of the Zou Family Bank, had been waiting at the gate for a long time.
The bank is not too big, after all, it is only opened in a small county, with a total of three courtyards, but it is enough for the Zou family to live in.There is a bank in the front yard, the Zou family lives in the middle yard, and the servants live in the back yard.
"Young palace master, young master, my subordinates have already prepared lunch, you two come with me." Zou Hannian stood close, neither humble nor overbearing, and looked very upright.It was more than ten years ago that he learned martial arts in Xingshen Palace, and his habit of calling Mu Yuntian the young palace master and claiming to be his subordinate still hasn't changed.
"Thank you, Boss Zou." Chu Xiaoye saluted, and followed Zou Han to the inner hall with Mu Yuntian, "Can you bother Boss Zou to help us find a doctor, he is injured."
Zou Han was taken aback for a moment, as if he didn't expect the young palace master with strong spiritual power to be injured, and then hurriedly nodded in response: "Young master, you are welcome, this subordinate will go now." After saying this, he saluted Mu Yuntian, and Mu Yuntian Yun Tian nodded, and Zou Han hurried out of the inner hall to find a servant to invite the doctor.
Chu Xiaoye took off her outer robe, and the afternoon sun was just right, the two of them came all the way under the sun, a layer of sweat had already appeared on the tip of their noses.Chu Xiaoye was born slender, wearing a water-blue snow-rolled fine gauze dress under her outer robe, and a wide belt made of white brocade inlaid with emerald jade, making her look even more tender and fresh.
Chu Xiaoye looked up and saw Mu Yuntian looking at him, thought for a while and said, "Is it hot? Do you want me to take off your robe for you?"
Mu Yuntian nodded, Chu Xiaoye hurried over to help him take off his coat, if there was a small tail behind him, it must be wagging at this time.
At this time, the servants of the Zou family's bank came in one after another to serve the food, and the two sat down to eat.
Because she was worried about Mu Yuntian's injury, Chu Xiaoye hurried all the way to Wangshui County. Naturally, she was hungry for a long time, and at this time she was holding chopsticks like flying.
Satisfied, she snorted and rubbed her belly, Chu Xiaoye lay on the cushioned chair and refused to move.Yesterday I was on the road all day, I was so tired that my limbs were sore, and I was born and restless at night, and today I was on the horse for a long time, so I can't wait to take a bath and sleep peacefully.
However, everyone had expected the hardships of this trip, and Chu Xiaoye didn't complain at all, and she was full of thoughts on finding her brother's body and bringing it back to Wangcheng for burial as soon as possible.
At this time, Zou Han had already found a doctor. Although Wangshui County is small, it is surrounded by mountains. Because there are a lot of medicinal materials, there are many famous doctors.At this time, Zou Han led in a white-haired old man over eighty years old. He seemed to be a man of honor, but he was still full of energy, and there was a sharp look in his narrowed eyes that couldn't be hidden.
Zou Han introduced: "This is the best doctor in the county, and his ancestors were imperial doctors."
The two saluted the old doctor and briefly explained the condition of the injury.
The old doctor nodded and wanted to check the wound, Zou Han hurriedly led everyone into the inner room.
Seeing that the old man was just like Zou Han, with an upright and clear spirit, Chu Xiaoye also confidently followed Zou Han into the inner room, watching the doctor examine Mu Yuntian's wound.
Helping Mu Yuntian take off his underwear, the bandage that was hastily wrapped last night has come loose.Even though Ning Xue Ointment was very effective, the bumpy ride for most of the day still caused the wound to open a little, and some blood oozes from the cloth.
The old doctor quickly removed the bandage, the scab on the wound was a little cracked, the old man looked carefully, then stretched out his hand to feel Mu Yuntian's pulse, then shook his head and said: "The wound is not clean, although the poison in the young master It has been dissolved, but the wound may fester in a few days. At this time, we can only pry the scar open and squeeze out the dirty blood."
"Did you hurt your bones?" Chu Xiaoye asked with a frown.
The old man pressed around the wound, shook his head and said: "Although the sword wound is deep, fortunately it didn't hurt the bone. It must be that the young master dodged in time. If it misses half an inch, maybe the root cause of the disease will fall."
Chu Xiaoye breathed a sigh of relief, fortunately it was not serious, otherwise she would feel guilty to death: "Doctor, how can I heal now? How long will it take to heal the wound?"
The old doctor glanced at Chu Xiaoye, and said with a smile: "The injured man hasn't spoken yet, why is this young master so anxious?"
Chu Xiaoye was a little embarrassed, and glanced at the two remaining people in the room. Mu Yuntian never said a word, just kept looking at him, and Zou Han even stood aside without interjecting.
The old man shook his head with a smile, and sighed, "Young man..."
Then without further talking, he opened the medicine box he brought, took out a roll of cloth bag and spread it out on the table, the cloth bag was full of things like knives and scissors made of silver.
The old man took out a few samples, and the servants brought in an oil lamp. While roasting the utensils, the old man said: "The wound is not wide, but it is a bit deep. If you don't want to fester and fester in the future, you have to cut the flesh and force out the dirty blood. This young man has to be patient."
Mu Yuntian nodded: "It's okay, please trouble the doctor."
Chu Xiaoye felt a tightness in her chest. In this era without anesthetics, how painful it would be to cut open the flesh.When he was young, he fell from a tree and broke his head. Because the head could not be given anesthesia, he had to suffer the pain and have the doctor stitch him up.Rao is a person who is less afraid of pain than his peers, at that time it was also in pain, and he wanted to crush his teeth.
At that time, he only had to sew a few stitches and it hurt like that, but now Mu Yuntian had to endure the pain of the flesh and blood around his shoulder blade being cut, Chu Xiaoye felt pain for him just thinking about it.
"The old man is about to use the knife." The old doctor handed a clean cloth bag to Mu Yuntian for him to bite, and then inserted the clean knife into it little by little.
Chu Xiaoye quickly ran to the other side lightly, held Mu Yuntian's uninjured right hand, and frowned at the old doctor's movements.
Mu Yuntian turned his head and didn't look at the old man, but held Chu Xiaoye's hand instead, blinked, and signaled with his eyes: It's okay, it doesn't hurt.
Chu Xiaoye didn't have time to think about why she could read the other person's eyes, she just leaned into his ear and said in a low voice, "Call out if it hurts, I will definitely not laugh at you."
"Pfft..." Mu Yuntian bit the cloth bag to hold back his laughter, and suddenly felt the pain on his shoulders eased a lot.
The old man also shook his head, his expression softened a lot.
Although the old doctor was old, his knife was precise, but he cleaned the wound in a short while, and the gauze with the other hand to wipe off the blood was also stained with bright red.
During the process, Mu Yuntian naturally didn't scream as Chu Xiaoye expected, and just frowned and endured the whole process silently.
This is the true iron-blooded man... Chu Xiaoye sighed.
Seeing that the wound was healed, Chu Xiaoye quickly took out Ningxue Ointment, handed it to the old man and asked, "Doctor, how about using this medicine to stop bleeding?"
The old doctor took the small porcelain bottle, took out the cork, sniffed it carefully, poured out some more, and twisted it in his hand. He squinted his eyes and opened them a little bit. Looking at the two of them, he said in surprise, "This is Ning Blood ointment?"
Chu Xiaoye nodded silently, isn't it? There is still a label on the bottle with the three big characters Ning Xue Gao written on it.
The old doctor carefully put Ning Xuepao on the table, and asked, "Where are you two from...?"
This Ningxue Ointment is the secret recipe of the Xiya National Tai Hospital, and the old man knew this prescription because his ancestors had been imperial physicians in the Xiya Palace.
Mu Yuntian's face was a little pale, and he naturally understood what the old man was thinking, but said indifferently: "Don't think too much, old man, this Ningxue Ointment was given to me by a friend."
The old doctor narrowed his eyes again, and replied: "Young master is really a good friend, this Ningxue ointment is the best medicine for healing."
Then the old man quickly applied Ningxue ointment evenly on the wound, and changed a clean bandage to bind the wound, saying: "Young master, remember to change the dressing and bandage every day, and add more supplements to rest. Originally, I said It may take more than ten days for the wound to heal. With this magical medicine, the wound can be healed in at most five days. It's just that the left arm of the young master should not be too hard within three months, otherwise it will be troublesome if the wound bursts open. .”
Everyone thanked the old man, Zou Han paid the money respectfully, and personally sent the old doctor out.
When there were only two people left in the room, Chu Xiaoye took a clean cloth towel and helped Mu Yuntian wipe off the sweat on his forehead, and then took the initiative to help him tie his clothes, and said: "I'll ask someone to fetch some hot water, you rest first .”
Mu Yuntian's complexion turned pale from the pain, he smiled and lay down on the couch with his eyes closed.
There was a servant from the Zou family waiting at the door, Chu Xiaoye came back after a few instructions, and sat by the couch to talk with Mu Yuntian.
"Does it hurt? The wound is so deep..." Chu Xiaoye asked.
"It's okay," Mu Yuntian shook his head, "I'm not afraid of pain."
Chu Xiaoye smiled, and said again: "Just now why did the old doctor ask us where we are from? Is there any problem with Ning Xuepao?"
Mu Yuntian said: "Yuehen has learned some medical skills from Xi Yaguo's imperial physician, and the Ningxue Ointment may be a prescription from the Tai Hospital. The old man is just a little surprised."
In fact, Mu Yuntian only spoke half of what he said. Even though he wouldn't lie to Chu Xiaoye, there are some things that it's better to wait for the storm to pass before confessing.
Chu Xiaoye sighed, and said: "I always feel a little uneasy in my heart. The golden Duan Lingli I saw last night... If it is also the person who came to kill us, what should I do?"
Chu Xiaoye has kept these words in her heart for a long time. The future she saw last night was like a bomb that exploded at an unknown time, dangerous and uncertain.It's just that he was too concerned about Mu Yuntian's injury before, so he refrained from saying anything.
Mu Yuntian stretched out his hand and rubbed the center of Chu Xiaoye's eyebrows, then pulled him over, pressed a kiss on the forehead, and said softly: "Don't worry too much, the old master said that the eyes of the soul only see one side , maybe our helper."
Chu Xiaoye was a little stunned by this kiss. Last time he was in Jiuhuafeng, he was a little unconscious, but this time he could clearly feel the warm lips, and he was a little at a loss for a while.
Seeing his blank look, Mu Yuntian felt amused, and said again: "Even if the visitor is against us, I will always be with you."
Chu Xiaoye's ears were a little red, she turned her head away and was afraid to look at those eyes that were gentle enough to melt away the uneasiness in her heart, and said in a low voice, "Well, let's go together."
After the rest, it was getting late, and the fine weather in March made the sunset glow everywhere.
The scenery in the small courtyard of the Zou family is not gorgeous, but it is also fresh and elegant. There are strange stone bonsai and a large area of roses planted in the courtyard. At this time, the lush red and white flowers are blooming just right.
After soaking in a hot bath and sleeping well all afternoon, Chu Xiaoye was sitting on the threshold of the room watching the sunset.Holding the hot honey water in its clean paws, the kitten narrowed its eyes in comfort.
Even though they were eager to find clues, it was not a wise choice to let Mu Yuntian get injured and go on the road, so the two decided that the Zou family would recover from their injuries for three to five days before going on the road.
A little girl from the Zou family ran into the yard with a blushing face, saluted Chu Xiaoye, and said, "Hello, young master, there is a big brother waiting at the door, the master said he was a subordinate of Xingshen Palace, and told me to take him directly. come over."
Before Chu Xiaoye could speak, a bright young man poked his head in: "Zhu Fei."
The person who came was Zhu Fei, one of the hidden guards of Starscar Palace, Zhu Fei walked into the courtyard, and the little maid went down first.
"Young master, where is the palace master?" Zhu Fei poked his head into the door.
"He just drank the concoction and is still resting." Chu Xiaoye looked at Zhu Fei, obviously he had rushed all the way here, wondering if there was something urgent.
"Did you drink the medicine? What happened to the palace master?" Zhu Fei couldn't believe it. The palace master who singled out the ghost dragon in the desert didn't suffer any injuries. How could he lie on the sickbed and couldn't get up after only two days out.
As a subordinate, it is really easy to catch up with such a weak palace master.
"Well, we met some assassins last night, and he was stabbed in the shoulder. He has already seen a doctor, and he will recover after a little more time." Chu Xiaoye explained.
"Oh, by the way, there is a letter from the National Teacher's Mansion, Zuo Hufa asked me to bring it." Zhu Fei took out a kraft paper envelope from his arms and handed it to Chu Xiaoye.
A letter from the National Teacher's Office?
Chu Xiaoye was a little apprehensive, don't tell me something happened again.
The author has something to say:
Although Mu Yuntian has the secret recipe of the Taiyuan Hospital and knows the royal family's door-sealing curse, it actually has nothing to do with the Xiya royal family.
His identity will be mentioned later, everyone, please take a look at it patiently~,
