Chapter 2249 Light Gate Lintel 49
Soon after, a piece of news spread throughout the world: Xuanhumen reopened the mountain gate and set up a general helm in a new place. Although the only surviving disciple was young, he had superb medical skills and had already begun to show his talent. He was known as the little miracle doctor.
Along with this came the matter of the price of medical treatment and the repayment of Feng Dao Wu Jue's debt.
It was already late winter, and the sky and earth were vast. The snow-covered ground and the white sky were indistinguishable from each other.
In the countryside and mountains, a carriage rolled forward through calf-deep snow.
The slave driving the car gave the reins to the person next to him and retracted the hand holding the reins into the sleeves lined with sheepskin. His hands were red from the cold and needed to be warmed.
He tightened his neck and hid his face, which was also flushed by the cold wind, into the collar of his cotton-padded jacket.
There were coughing sounds in the car from time to time. The old slave seemed to have been used to it for a long time. He didn't go in to ask, just rushing on his way.
After the car turned a corner, Lao Nu saw the wheel marks extending from another road and merged with their car marks at the intersection ahead. He couldn't help but said: "Young Master, the hanging pot door should be right in front."
A pale hand with slender fingers grabbed the car door curtain, opened a corner of the tightly covered cotton door curtain, and then lowered it again. At this time, you can see several deep marks on the snow ahead, heading all the way forward.
The old slave consoled him with hope: "I didn't expect that there are still descendants of Xuanhumen. It is said that the medical skills are quite high. Broken intestines can be reconnected. There are ways to treat ghost fetuses. Young Master, your illness will definitely be cured."
But there was no echo in the car, only two slight coughs.
When the car arrives in the village, you know the direction without asking for directions. You just need to look at the car prints on the ground. In the middle of winter, besides looking for Xuanhumen, who would come to this remote place?
From the low earthen wall, you can see carriages and horses parked in livestock sheds in several farmyards.
Going further, you can see the small courtyard at the foot of the mountain. Outside the courtyard door, several people are sitting in front and warming themselves by the fire.
Seeing someone else coming, Li Zheng, who was warming himself by the fire, led a villager to greet him. He first bowed and saluted: "I am Li Zheng of this village. Who is here and what's the matter?"
The old slave got out of the car and bowed: "The young master of Huoyun Villa came here to pay homage to Xuanhumen."
Li Zheng turned his head and looked at the carriage. The curtains were so tight that he couldn't see what was going on inside. He turned his head and said to the old slave, "Are you seeing a doctor or seeking revenge?"
The old slave choked and then replied: "See a doctor."
After hearing this, Li Zheng turned around and shouted: "I'm here to see a doctor, knock the gong!"
With a "bang~" sound, a villager rang the gong to notify the people in the yard.
"The little miracle doctor is inside." Li Zheng made a gesture of invitation, but the old slave was stunned again.
Xining was cooking hot pot with everyone in the main room, and frowned when he heard the sound of the gong. The snow had only stopped for a long time when someone came. However, when people come to see a doctor, they come to give money, which can also be regarded as food and clothing.
The mutton slices were just cooked. There were only a few slices of mutton in total, so I couldn’t put them down: “Elder brother, go and greet them.”
One was younger than him, and the other was still recovering from serious injuries. Liu Yulang could only quickly stuff the meat into his mouth, get up and go out. When he walked out of the house, he was chewing mutton, and he didn't know if it would scare people away.
But now that I’m here, I won’t leave until I’ve seen it. Not to mention that the mouth is shiny and chewing, even if you hold a whole sheep hoof in your hand, the person will not leave.
After a while, Liu Yulang came back, sat down, picked up his chopsticks, and hurriedly stirred up the meat in the pot: "It was said that the young owner of Huoyun Villa thought that the smell of meat in the house would make him cough, so he waited outside. An old man also followed him. Slave, I let him out.”
Cough, consumption? Xi Ning frowned slightly, this disease is not easy to cure even in the modern dimension. Under the current medical level, don't even think about recovery. But since you are here, let’s go and have a look.
Xining quickly chewed the meat in his mouth, rinsed his mouth with pear sugar water, stood up and walked out.
A noble young master stood in the courtyard with his back turned. The young master has a slender figure, wearing a floor-length white fox fur, and a golden crown on his head. It seems that everything around him has become blurred, and only his entire back is left. When he turned around, it seemed as if the whole world was eclipsed.
Xining, who has seen too many male gods, couldn't help but admire that there are still good people in the world, and even mortals can match the existence of male gods. Her face is a bit pale and her cheeks are slightly thinner, but she has her own charm and fully meets the requirements of a sickly beauty.
She walked over and cupped her hands: "Xuanhumen Xining."
When the other party saw that she was a ten-year-old girl, she couldn't help but have doubts in her eyes, but she still politely returned the greeting: "Guo Siyuan of Huoyun Villa."
The old slave walked out, and the door was immediately closed by the villagers outside. He was a little worried. After waiting for a while, he lay on the door and looked in through the crack in the door.
"Hey, what are you doing?" Li Zheng and the villagers hid next to the fire again, and used branches to poke the sweet potatoes that were roasting inside: "Don't look at it, come over and warm up together."
After thinking for a while, the old slave walked over, squatted down together, and put on a flattering smile: "Are you all Xianhumen people?"
Li Zheng sneered: "What are you thinking about? Not everyone can enter the Xuanhu Gate."
"Then you..."
"I'm here to help. It's idle in the winter... By the way, if you want to stay in the village for a while, would you like to introduce the house and yard? Our rent here is cheap, and we also provide meals and livestock fodder. All farmers The prices are the same, no matter the age, no matter the age.”
Uh... No wonder I saw fine carriages and horses when passing through the village. These are not something ordinary farmers can afford.
"If you need to stay, be sure to ask Li Zheng to recommend a better courtyard." The old slave said flatteringly, and then turned to another topic: "You just talked about seeking revenge. Is there someone coming to seek revenge?"
< br>
"Yes, several." Li Zheng pulled out a sweet potato and poked it tentatively with his fingers. He felt it was not cooked yet, so he pulled it back again: "Some of them really have grudges. Two of them heard that blood debts can be repaid with medical treatment. He deliberately said that he was here to seek revenge and wanted to waste money for medical treatment.”
Old slave...
Can this still be faked? However, it costs five hundred taels, thousands or even tens of thousands of taels of silver. Not everyone can afford it: "What if there is really a grudge?"
"First write down what the grudge is, where it happened, and who you killed or beheaded. After it is confirmed, depending on the matter, you may be exempted or discounted. If it is fake, you will be given the original price and double the price."
Such a thing is really unheard of. The old slave thought it was novel and funny: "What if someone doesn't want to see a doctor but wants revenge?"
"The little miracle doctor said that this is a debt Wu Jue owed before. It originally had nothing to do with Xuanhumen, but because he is already a member of Xuanhumen, he repaid the debt. If Wu Jue dies, then his previous debt will be repaid. The debt went with him, and Xuanhumen has no obligation to pay it back.
"So who dares to kill Wu Jue now? Once he dies, the debt will be gone and medical treatment will cost money. Anyone who wants revenge can come and try. Some people killed him first, so it's better to come and take credit."
Well, after all, there is so much money, and the little miracle doctor is said to have a temper, so he can't treat everyone. After offending Xuanhumen, do you still want to treat this disease?
"Wu Jue is very popular now. Many people are eager to let him chop him, as long as he doesn't chop him to death." Li Zheng's words made the old slave unable to react for a moment.
