Chapter 2 It is better to ask for the heaven and the earth than to ask for yourself
The elderly in military homes for the elderly have no shortage of food, clothing, and enjoy all benefits. Each of them has a dedicated nursing staff, but they lack one thing, and that is family affection and sincere care!
Those professional nursing staff are all doing it for money. These old people have experienced countless blood and fire, and their true psychology can be seen at a glance, so Fang Ning's sincerity is extremely precious!
Fang Ning left the military home. At the last moment, he didn't know what Gu Tiannan was going to give him. After Gu Tiannan said that, he never mentioned it again.
Could it be that water mirror image? Fang Ning knew that there was a water mirror in ancient Tiannan, which could stimulate the illusion of the water mirror and create a five-inch-sized image of a beautiful woman on the water mirror.
The image of the woman was lifelike and extremely beautiful. Gu Tiannan could not help but stare at it for a whole day, but every time after watching it, he would get angry and hit and curse people. This was one of the reasons why he had a bad temper.
Fang Ning guessed that this woman should be his lover. Maybe it was because of her that Gu Tiannan never married and ended up in a military nursing home.
With questions in mind, Fang Ning received today's caregiver's reward, a silver dollar, and left the military home. He went straight to the market in Kezhou City and arrived in front of a drug store.
Although Fangyuan Pharmacy is not one of the top pharmacies among the pharmacies in Kezhou City, Fang Ning likes to buy medicine here because the owner Mu Ying is very fair, the price is reasonable, and he never rips off customers, and his family's ancestral Qingfeng
Pure medicine can maximize the effectiveness of medicinal materials, which is three times stronger than the medicinal materials in other pharmacies.
The most important thing is that this is the only place where Fang Ning can pay for medicine on credit. Sometimes when Fang Ning is in trouble, this is the only place where he can get snow bird's nests.
Snow bird's nest is a high-grade tonic that can supplement various nutrients for weak patients. Fang Ning's mother relied on the nourishment of snow bird's nest to survive today.
Entering the drug store, Fang Ning walked to the counter as before, nodded to the shopkeeper Mu inside, and said, "Uncle Mu, please bring me a silver dollar of snow bird's nest..."
Before Fang Ning could finish speaking, the fat shopkeeper Mu, who was sitting at the counter, interrupted him and said:
"Xiao Ningzi, why are you buying snow bird's nests? Today the imperial doctor Xiao Xuexian passed by Kezhou City to provide free clinics for seriously ill patients at Tongrentang. Go home and prepare quickly. Take your wife to queue up early. She will be there tomorrow afternoon.
It’s a rare opportunity to leave.”
Hearing this, Fang Ning's eyes suddenly lit up. Her mother has been ill for almost two years. Over the past two years, her condition has become more and more serious. She spent almost a day in a coma. Fang Ning sold everything in the house, and even
The ancestral home was sold and countless doctors were called in, but they could not diagnose the cause of the disease, so they could only rely on snow bird's nests to stay alive.
Unexpectedly, the miracle doctor came here for free clinic today. It was such great news. Fang Ning was overjoyed, but he still said:
"Thank you, Uncle Mu. I understand. Please give me a silver dollar of snow bird's nest first. Otherwise, my mother will have nothing to eat tonight."
This is Fang Ning's character. Even if things are urgent and chaotic, he can still be steady and quiet, unmoved by external affairs. This is also the reason why during the two years in the military nursing home, he got along with those old people who have experienced countless bloody battles.
The self-character formed by Fang Ning.
Mu Ying nodded secretly, what a young man, he will not be surprised if the sky falls!
He shouted loudly to the back: "Snow bird's nest, one silver dollar, take the top grade."
This is the rule of the drug store. As he shouted, the clerk inside wrapped the snow bird's nest and handed it over.
Fang Ning took the snow bird's nest, said a few polite words to Uncle Mu, and then walked quickly to his home. It seemed that he had to queue up early tonight so that he could have a chance to receive a free consultation from the miracle doctor Xiao Xuexian tomorrow morning.
Soon Fang Ning returned to a dilapidated alley, a dilapidated scene and dilapidated areas everywhere. Fang Ning entered a bungalow in a dilapidated alley. The house was not big, but it had a single courtyard and a solid iron door. It was very safe and the rent was not expensive.
This is the house he rented.
The small courtyard was not big, but it was very clean. He opened the door, entered the house, and glanced at his mother on the bed. Fang Ning couldn't help but feel hot in her eyes, and almost shed tears. Her mother's condition was getting worse and worse.
It got worse and worse, and I almost spent the whole day in a coma.
The hired nurse on the side, Aunt Zhang, who was taking care of her mother, said, "Xiao Ning is back. Sister-in-law of the Fang family woke up for an hour today. She looks better than yesterday and ate a small bowl of bird's nest porridge."
Fang Ning said: "Thank you Aunt Zhang. I have to ask Aunt Zhang to help me sort it out. Boss Mu from Fangyuan Pharmacy said that the miracle doctor Xiao Xuexian has arrived in our Kezhou City. I want to queue up early tonight to ask her for free diagnosis."
Hearing Fang Ning's words, Aunt Zhang had a strange expression on her face. She glanced at Fang Ning's mother who was unconscious and gritted her teeth and said:
"Xiao Ning, your mother didn't let us tell you! But I have to say it!
This afternoon, your uncle got the news, so he and I took the Fang family's sister-in-law there. Xiao Xuexian had already diagnosed the Fang family's sister-in-law and wrote a prescription, but when she came back, your mother tore up the prescription and wouldn't let us tell you.
.”
Fang Ning was stunned for a moment, and felt a chill in his heart. A bad feeling arose in his heart.
Aunt Zhang continued: "Your mother begged us not to tell you, but I think we must tell you.
Here you go, this is the prescription that your mother tore up. She asked me to burn it, so I kept it. I don’t know the words, so you can read it yourself."
After saying that, Aunt Zhang took out a pile of torn pieces of waste paper that had been put together. Fang Ning bowed to Aunt Zhang and said, "Thank you, Aunt Zhang."
He hurriedly picked up the spelled prescription and began to read it in detail. There was a row of gentle and beautiful small characters on it. The characters were written very well, with flowing words and flowing words, and the writing was like clouds of smoke.
“The patient suffers from demonic fire attack on the heart syndrome, because his heart is depressed, extremely angry and sad, and he is injured by external demonic inner fire, which leads to such a disease.
The treatment method is to take a Qingxin Dan every day when the morning sun rises for ten consecutive days, which can clear away the evil fire and cure the disease.
Note that this patient has entered an advanced stage. It is best to take Qingxin Dan within a month. Otherwise, after one month, he will enter a severe condition and without treatment, he will be completely comatose and will not wake up again, and he will die in half a year."
After using the Qingxin Pill to treat heart disease with magic fire, he died a month later. Fang Ning was surprised and happy after reading this prescription. He was happy that his mother was saved, but he was surprised that there was only one month left. If he didn’t save his mother, he would die.
Death is certain.
He carefully put away the prescription and said to Aunt Zhang: "Aunt Zhang, I'm going out to see the herbs that can cure my mother's illness. I have to trouble you to take care of her for a while."
Aunt Zhang immediately said: "Go quickly, go quickly, Bodhisattva has eyes. I hope my sister-in-law of the Fang family will recover soon."
Fang Ning quickly rushed to Fangyuan Pharmacy and bought the Qingxin Pill. She didn't know if Fangyuan Pharmacy had it. If so, how much would it cost to buy it.
Seeing Fang Ning running back again, Uncle Mu was stunned and said, "Xiao Ningzi, what's the matter?"
Fang Ning's face was filled with excitement and she shouted in great anticipation: "Uncle Mu, do you have the Qingxin Pill here?"
Upon hearing the words Qingxin Dan, Uncle Mu's expression changed, he shook his head and said:
"The Qingxin Pill, taken during practice, can drive away inner demons. It is a secret pill, but I don't have it here."
When Fang Ning heard this, he hurriedly asked:
"Uncle Mu, do you know where it is?"
Uncle Mu replied:
"Not all the medicine shops in Kezhou City have it, but in the Kezhou Auction House, there should be a Qingxin Pill. But Xiao Ningzi, you have to hold on. A Qingxin Pill is worth thirty gold coins."
As soon as he said this, Fang Ning felt a chill in his heart. The gold coins circulating in the Jin Datou Tianluo Empire weighed about one tael. Because the saint's head on it was protruding and vivid, it was called Jin Datou by the common people.
In the empire, one hundred copper coins are worth one silver dollar, one hundred silver dollars are worth one gold dollar, one Qingxin Pill is worth thirty gold dollars, and ten pills are worth three hundred gold dollars. These are huge numbers, and Fang Ning was stunned.
Prices in the Tianluo Empire are stable, a steamed bun costs ten cents, a hundred kilograms of rice is worth twenty silver dollars, a beautiful sixteen-year-old virgin slave only costs ten cents, and the Fang family's ancestral home was sold for just one thousand gold. Three hundred gold dollars.
, Fang Ning needs to work in a military home for 30,000 days, which is eighty-two years, to save enough.
How Fang Ning left Fangyuan Pharmacy, he didn't even know. He sat on a bench on the street, silently in a daze. He suddenly stood up and walked towards the center of Kezhou City, where the Kezhou Auction House was.
After a long time, Fang Ning walked out of the Kezhou auction house in despair. There was a Qingxin Pill inside, which was indeed worth thirty gold. Ten pills equaled three hundred gold. The number was like a mountain pressing on him.
"What should I do? What should I do? Three hundred gold. Mom only has one month left. Where can I find these three hundred gold?"
"I'm not willing to give in. I'm so unwilling to give in. If nothing happened to my father, three hundred gold would have been nothing in the past. But, but, I went to look for three hundred gold, and I borrowed everything I could."
"It's not fair. My father saved 600,000 people, but was sent to guard the border outside the territory. My mother has always been kind to people and helped countless people, but why did she have to suffer like this? God, it's so unfair."
"What should I do? God, please show me a clear way. As long as I can save my mother, I am willing to die."
Unknowingly, Fang Ning walked to a huge building. When he saw this building, Fang Ning suddenly no longer lost his mind. His eyes gradually became firmer. He found a way.
This building is the fighting arena in Kezhou City. In order to maintain the blood and fighting spirit of the people of the empire, there is a fighting arena in every city of the empire. Countless fighters, slaves, prisoners, prisoners of war, beasts of prey,
Demons and monsters fought bloody battles here, and staged various bloody battles.
This is also the last resort for the people of the empire who have no other choice. For example, people in the empire who owe loan sharks and need huge sums of money like Fang Ning can come here to sign up to participate in gladiatorial battles. In the blood and sand, they can survive a narrow escape and fight the enemy to the death.
If you win, you will receive a large bonus; if you fail, you will receive a pension.
Seeing the martial arts arena, Fang Ning's hesitation, sadness and anger suddenly disappeared, and gradually his whole body became firmer, with a clarity in his eyes, and an aura gradually rose up in him.
"It turns out that God still left a way for me. My father's sword is still at home. It's better to ask God and earth than to ask myself. With a sword in my hand, I will fight hard. I am the first in the official martial arts school every year.
, I have absorbed countless experiences from veterans, and I will not necessarily lose.
I may have a narrow escape, but I still have to try and rely on myself to do everything. As long as I can save my mother, I am willing to die."
Fang Ning turned around and walked resolutely towards the martial arts arena.
