Chapter 1 Feng Cheng's widow
"It's miserable......"
"These Northern Barbarian brutes, one day Lao Tzu will kill them all!"
"Hey, who made God not open his eyes, if it wasn't for that flash flood that washed away the road, we might have ...... a day earlier."
While scolding the thief, the crowd threw the corpse into the dug pit.
This is a border city of Longyan Kingdom-Feng City. It's a pity that a few days ago, it was attacked by the Northern Barbarians who came to fight the grass valley, and the reinforcements came late, and none of the people in the city were spared under the Beiban butcher's knife after the city was broken.
"Wait! There seems to be a sound. Liu Erhu of the scout suddenly shouted.
The crowd was frightened by him. Especially Wang Jie, who had just left the bodies of a couple of people, came back to his senses and listened for a moment and said in confusion: "Brother Erhu heard it wrong, the brothers have all checked it, and they were sent without living eloquence." β
Liu Erhu glanced at him and said, "Lao Tzu has been a scout for so many years, how could he hear it wrong. With that, he jumped off the grave. And when the people saw that he was in a hurry, they also gathered around.
After a while, Liu Erhu exclaimed: "Come and help, there is a child here!" β
Everyone was surprised and rushed forward to help, a swaddling baby was hidden between the corpses of a couple, and it took great effort for the soldiers to separate the two embracers, revealing the baby that seemed to be whimpering inside.
Zhao Quan, the general of the Yinyan Army, was in the camp tent, and he couldn't write the memo to Kyoto.
Seeing that the general was worried, the leader of the pro-soldier Yu Shi couldn't help but comfort: "The general doesn't have to be worried, no one thought that those stupid barbarians would make a false shot, and the time and place were not on our side......"
Zhao Quan shook his head and sighed: "If you can deceive others, you can't deceive yourself." If I had been able to see through the Northern Barbarian's plan to divide the troops at the beginning, how could the people of Fengcheng have died tragically. Saying that, Zhao Quan secretly reflected, these years have been too smooth, and he has been a little carried away. He is a relative of the emperor, His Majesty loves generals, he is not young enough to lead an army, and it is only a matter of time before he is promoted to a general in the future, so he naturally has a sense of pride in his heart, but he didn't expect God to splash this cold water so cold.
At this time, there was a commotion outside the tent, and before he could scold, he heard the soldiers outside shouting: "General! We found a baby who was still alive! β
Zhao Quan was immediately overjoyed and greeted him. Looking at the swaddling clothes in Liu Erhu's arms, Zhao Quangang's brows furrowed again, and he yelled at Yu Shi: "Go and call Li Ye!" β
β¦β¦
"This kid has a cold breath in his body and a weak pulse, at most I can prescribe some qi-tonifying medicine to hang his life, maybe only Doctor Wang can come up with a way to save this child." Without waiting for everyone to speak, Li Ye reluctantly continued: "But with my ability, I can only let this child live for two more days, and I'm afraid I won't be able to survive the arrival of Doctor Wang." β
Before the excitement of everyone's surprise passed, they were beaten back to their original shape, and the camp tent was suddenly silent. Doctor Wang was too old to follow the army, but stayed at the army station, and it would take at least five days to reach Fengcheng.
As if thinking of something, Zhao Quan said to Yu Shi: "Take out the ginseng medicine." β
Yu Shi was taken aback and opened his mouth to speak, but was interrupted by Zhao Quan: "Needless to say, this is what I owe this child." β
Seeing that Zhao Quan had made up his mind, he slowly and carefully took out a palm-sized delicate wooden box from his arms, and after opening it, everyone immediately smelled a fragrance, all of which were refreshed, and even Li Ye looked at the wooden box in surprise.
As the brocade cloth was spread out, everyone finally saw the jade-colored ginseng pieces in it, the color of the ginseng pieces was like jadeite, and the middle was almost crystalline, more like jewelry than medicinal herbs.
"ThisβThis is the legendary Jade Wonder!" Li Ye lost his voice with excitement, and he had already begun to shout in his heart: "God, I actually saw a miracle medicine that can live the dead!" Doctor Wang didn't lie to me! β
Li Ye excitedly wanted to pounce on this legendary elixir carefully, but Yu Shi's fierce gaze suddenly sobered him up, and he had to smile.
Zhao Quan didn't care about Li Ye's faux pas, but just asked expectantly, "Is this medicine useful?" β
Li Ye nodded vigorously and said, "It's useful!" Of course it works! With this magic medicine, Lord Yama can't take this child away. "With such a miracle medicine to let yourself do, as a healer, you will die without regrets.
β¦β¦
A few days later, Doctor Wang finally arrived in Fengcheng.
Doctor Wang took the child's pulse with one hand, caressed his white beard with the other, nodded sometimes and shook his head, everyone was confused, only Li Ye guessed in his heart.
Seeing that Divine Doctor Wang was silent for a long time, Yu Shi finally couldn't help but ask, "Divine Doctor Wang, how is this child?" "A few days ago, the child had taken the ginseng tablets, and although his breath had stabilized, his pulse was still weak, and he couldn't see much blood on his face.
"There is salvation, but it can only be saved for a while, but it cannot be saved for a lifetime. This child is too young, and he has spent the night with the corpse in the dead city, and he has already been in the marrow, and it is God blessed that he can live until you find out. Fortunately, I took the jade ginseng in time, and according to the old man's prescription, I would not die early when I took care of it. But the yin qi has entered the marrow, the origin has been broken, and there is only a limit to what ordinary medicinal stone means can do after all," said Divine Doctor Wang sighed, "That means that this child can only live to the crown at most." β
There was a sudden silence in the tent.
Zhao Quan was silent for a moment before asking, "Is there no other way?" If you want a miracle ginseng, I still have it here. β
Doctor Wang shook his head and said, "Although the ginseng is strange, the medicine is not right. Moreover, the origin of the miracle ginseng is extraordinary, so the general should keep it to preserve his useful body on the battlefield in the future. β
"Does the divine doctor know the origin of this miracle?"
At this time, there were only Zhao Quan, Yu Shi and Li Ye in the tent, and Doctor Wang slowly spoke when he saw that there were no outsiders: "The general should know that His Majesty sometimes entertains some mysterious guests in the palace. Many years ago, at a banquet, the guests gave His Majesty a miracle medicine, when I was in the palace doctor, was summoned to receive it, this was fortunate to meet the two mysterious guests, the two guests saw my heart of medicine and piety and pointed out a few words, let me benefit a lot, and the magic medicine is the jade ginseng. β
Yu Shi listened and said curiously: "That guest's medical skills are more powerful than you?" β
Divine Doctor Wang replied with a wry smile: "The old man can have the false name of 'divine doctor', it depends on the guidance of those two guests that day, and how can the old man dare to compare with the immortals." β
"Immortals?" Yu Shi and Li Ye couldn't help but be surprised.
Zhao Quan had already expected it, he naturally knew some secrets, but he only knew that His Majesty had a connection with some hidden existences, it is said that these hidden existences are far away from the earthly world and have the ability to turn over rivers and seas, so it is not an exaggeration to say that such a person is an immortal.
Li Ye and the others asked a few more curious questions before returning to the child.
"In that case, then when the child gets better, give him some silver taels, and find a good family to adopt." Zhao Quan said with a sigh.
But Yu Shi's view was different: "General, I'm afraid it won't work." This child is frail and sickly at first glance, and no one will adopt such a child. And maybe someone will have bad intentions for the sake of the silver......"
Zhao Quan just wanted to say, 'Then it will be raised in my house', but was interrupted by Doctor Wang.
"I have a proposal."
"What else can you do?"
Doctor Wang replied: "There is no way to do it, that is to use the killing masculinity in the army to suppress the yin energy in this child's body. β
Li Ye asked with some surprise, "You mean to keep this kid in the army?" β
After hearing this, Li Ye's face was a little bitter, if he was asked to take care of the child, how could he have time to read books and make medicines.
Zhao Quan seemed to see Li Ye's difficulty, and smiled: "Give it to Liu Fatzi of the Huotou Army, he fed himself to be fat-headed and big-eared, if you want to come to him to eat a bite, the child will not be too bad if he eats half a mouthful." β
After all, Zhao Quan is the emperor's favorite general, and the food reserves of the Huotou Army of the Yinyan Army have always been sufficient, even if the whole army needs to be pulled, there are carriages to transport cooking utensils and food, and it is not a big problem to sit on one more child, and it can be said that it is very suitable to raise this child in the Huotou Army.
Yu Shi and Doctor Wang also laughed after listening to what Zhao Quan said. "Let's choose a name for this kid first. It's a pity that the civil register was burned down with the city lord's mansion, otherwise you can still find out who this child's surname is. β
Zhao Quan nodded, he wanted to take a masculine name for a good omen, but looking at the child's white and tender face, he thought for a moment and said, "Let's call it Feng Yun." β
I don't know if it's because I lamented that this kid would dissipate the clouds in the future, so he named it 'Yun', although Yu Shi and others felt that something was wrong, but after all, they didn't refute Zhao Quan's meaning.
