There were too many people infected with the disease, and there was only so little medicine, which was of no avail. The sick people were desperate for treatment, and immediately became weak and weak. They all went to bask in the sun under the city wall, waiting to die. There was a putrid smell outside the county town, and there was a putrid smell floating in the moat.
There were swollen corpses, and these people infected with the plague were fetching water from the moat. In this case, even if the disease was cured by taking medicine, they would become infected again!
Qinglan and Hu Yan came over quickly, with every drop of the medicine bucket in their hands gone. What entered their noses was the smell of putrid corpses and moldy people, and what entered their eyes were the feeble and feeble patients, all gathered at the city gate.
Around them, some people were still trying to knock on the paint-peeled door that had been closed early in the morning. Qinglan looked angry: "Why don't the parents of Qiongshan County treat these people?!"
Wen Xi sneered: "Parent officials, parents officials, those 'parents' may not even care about their own children, let alone these people?!"
Qinglan bit her lip and said, "Then I'll make some medicine."
Wen Xi shook her head, looked at the moat, and said, "No matter how much medicine you take, it won't work." Then she called Qinglan Fuer over and asked her to do something.
After hearing this, Qinglan suddenly opened her eyes wide and grabbed her azure sleeves edged with orchids, "But if this is the case -"
"After we finish our work, we'll leave immediately!"
It is too slow to boil medicine for treatment, and the ability of the spiritual spring water to purify filth and eliminate diseases is enough. However, this thing is too unnatural, and Wen Xi dare not take it out easily, so it is only added to the medicine. Now.
, and didn’t care much anymore. With a little cover-up, they used the so-called "dreams from gods" as an excuse to spread the blue orchid: there is nectar dropped by immortals in the wells of Qiongshan Taoist Temple, which can cure all diseases. Naturally, countless people flocked into the small Qiongshan.
Mountain Taoist Temple.
Wenxi naturally prepared everything first and poured the spiritual spring water into the old well. The surroundings of the old well were already filled with mist. Around the well, the camellias that had lost all their leaves due to the cold winter suddenly sprouted and budded.
The fragrance attracts butterflies and bees. It is not like winter at all, but like the spring season, which is breathtaking! There are even cranes circling and flying above the well, making chirping sounds.
"Miracles! Miracles!!" The Taoist priests who hurried back from Qiongshan Temple couldn't help being surprised. When they left in the morning, there were still dead branches and leaves. Now they are like a fairyland!
But Wen Xi had already left quickly with Qinglan and others. After such a big fight, we couldn't stay here any longer.
Wen Xi didn't dare to continue pretending to be an old Taoist with white hair and childish face, but the color on her hair would not fade for a while, so she had to wear a pure Yang scarf with a moire pattern to collect all her hair in it. Pure Yang scarf, according to legend, because of
It is named after the Immortal Lu Chunyang. It has an inch-long silk folded top. It hangs down like a bamboo slip at the back, which is quite similar to the scarves of the Han and Tang Dynasties. It does not lose its character. It is wearing an autumn-colored cotton-padded lake gauze Taoist robe, and black light-faced shoes.
Wearing cotton boots with toe caps and Hangzhou silk stockings, he was dressed in a simple Taoist style as a young disciple. He was riding an ordinary bay-red horse on the official road.
All the clothes were made by Qing Lan in a hurry. The materials were pretty good, but the stitching was very poor. Wen Xi knew that Qing Lan was not good at female red, so it would be good if she could make it. She must not be able to compare with Mei'er's craftsmanship, even Songzhu
It’s all so much worse!
It's just that today, the horse was a little tired. After running for more than ten miles, it stopped and refused to leave. This thing has been in space for a long time, and it refused to work hard when it came out!
Wen Xi suddenly became angry, but subconsciously glanced back and sighed. Wen Xi looked at Qing Lan, who was riding with her, and said, "You noticed it too, right?"
Qinglan turned around and saw a corner of her robe decorated with green flowing clouds in the withered yellow grass. She sighed, and with a bit of anger in her heart, she followed her all the way, so that her master did not dare to bring her into the fairyland.
"Wow--" Suddenly, a child's cry came out from the grass. The person who was hiding was finally exposed, and he could only walk out.
Qinglan frowned and said, "Why are you still following us?!" It turned out to be a father and son she saved from the plague. The father was only in his early twenties, wearing a blue silk robe of a scholar and literati, with tangled branches and lotus flowers.
He was embroidered with auspicious patterns, with silver flowing clouds embroidered on the collar, corners and cuffs. He wore white-soled soap boots and had a tall and straight figure. He was very heroic. He followed along, but there was no trace of dust on his shoes and top. His son was in his arms.
In the middle, wrapped in a pea green brocade quilt embroidered with spring swallow patterns, she looks like she has just turned one year old.
Wen Xi saw that the man's face was not red and he was out of breath. He followed the horse and ran quietly for more than ten miles, holding a chubby boy in his arms. It showed that he had good kung fu and knew how to regulate his own breath.
, don’t let anyone discover it. If Wen Xi didn’t have the mental power to cheat, I’m afraid they wouldn’t even be discovered.
"Me, me???" Being stared at directly by Wen Xi and Qinglan, his face instantly turned red and he felt a little embarrassed. Then he looked at Qinglan and said, "I've seen your portrait!"
Qinglan's face suddenly turned red, and she asked hurriedly: "Is it the master at that time -" Before Qinglan could finish her words, the rest of her words were swallowed up. Qinglan naturally knew who the person in front of her was.
, but Qinglan always thought that he didn't know who he was.
Master? Qinglan’s master is Gu? Wen Xi suddenly remembered that Gu proposed to Qinglan for his grandson! He must have secretly sent Qinglan’s portrait back to his hometown to show it to his grandson.
Oh! Then the young man in front of me must be Gu's grandson? The age also matches, Gu was already over eighty when he resigned, and it is normal for the youngest grandson to be in his twenties.
Wen Xi frowned, her eyes fell on the crying child in his arms, and asked: "Your son?" The words came out in an ordinary man's voice, and he used the pills prepared by Qinglan.
He nodded hurriedly, with a slight smile on his face and said: "Yes, my name is Yucheng, she is one year and two months old!" After that, he introduced himself hurriedly: "In Xiagu Yangtian, the imperial hospital in the palace is judged by Gu
Chengzong is my uncle."
She said warmly, Gu Chengzong's nephew, Gu's grandson. Gu Chengzong's proposal failed, so he naturally chose a marriage for his grandson. It was time for him to have children, but why did he pursue Qinglan like this?
Gu Yangtian looked at Qinglan and said: "Miss Qinglan's medical skills are more powerful than I imagined, and she is also a kind-hearted person???" As he said this, his face turned red. "Actually, I was willing to marry someone with medical skills.
of my wife!”
Qinglan's face turned red and she said angrily: "Since you know who I am, you should call me uncle!" Qinglan was still an ancient disciple of Gu Yangtian's grandfather, and he was a generation away from him in terms of seniority.
However, Gu Yangtian still said directly: "My grandfather has always felt deeply regretful after he retired and returned to his hometown. My grandfather liked Miss Qinglan very much and always hoped that Miss Qinglan could be his grandson-in-law."
Qinglan immediately leaned into Wen Xi's arms and said in an intimate manner: "I'm married!"
The corners of Wen Xi's mouth twitched. Although she was a man now, she was a monk! Can she marry a wife?
Qinglan wrapped her arms around her gentle waist. She was not shy at all, and said with a joyful face: "My husband is a Taoist priest who lives in the fire, and our daughter is more than four months old!" - The Taoist priest who lives in the fire refers to him.
Taoist priests who practice at home are not like monks in that they must abide by the same rules and precepts. Among Taoist priests, Taoist priests who live in the fire can get married and have children, but they must also observe the precepts and fast.
Gu Yangtian was not angry at all. He lowered his head and coaxed his son in his arms, but his method was very unfamiliar. It was obvious at a glance that he was not someone who could coax children. He said with a slightly sad expression: "My wife has died from the plague.
Hit???" Then he raised his head and looked at Qinglan, showing a bitter smile: "Gu knows that it is not appropriate to talk about marriage now, and it is very abrupt. It's just that only my uncle, me and Yucheng are left in the Gu family. The family business
It no longer exists. I just wanted to report the kindness between the two of you. My uncle rushed back today for the funeral. I took advantage of the fact that it was still dark before he woke up, so I left the letter and ran away."
With that said, Gu Yangtian looked up at Wen Xi again, raised his hands and said, "Is this the owner of Miss Qinglan?"
Wen Xi couldn't help being startled, and tried her best to hold back the doubts and shock in her heart. Wen Xi really didn't understand that her outfit was perfect, but someone could tell at a glance!
Gu Yangtian smiled slightly, as if he saw the surprised expression in Wen Xi's eyes, and explained: "I just have a sensitive nose. Some women have a body odor that cannot be washed away or covered.
"
Wen Xi hurriedly sniffed herself, and there was indeed a faint fragrance, but he was so far away, how could he smell it? This is not a sensitive nose, it is clearly a dog's nose, okay?!
Gu Yangtian smiled and said: "I was an old immortal before, and now I am a young Taoist priest. But no matter how I change, the taste will not change!"
Wen Xi took a deep breath, tried to stay calm, and said in a sonorous voice: "What is the purpose of saying this?"
"Sure enough, what my grandfather said is right, you are a refreshing person!" Gu Yangtian smiled, then walked a few steps forward, knelt down and said, "Gu is here to follow the new master!"
Wen Xi was shocked. Gu Yangtian obviously knew her identity, but now that he was serving the Gu family, it was of no benefit to him at all! Is it really just to repay the kindness of saving his life?
When Gu Yangtian saw that Wen Xi had not spoken for a long time, he smiled and said, "The imperial envoy Nalan has arrived in Qiongshan County this morning after hearing the news."
"What?!" Wen Xi was stunned, so fast?! Now she has just walked out of Qiongshan County, so wouldn't Nalan Rong be chasing her soon?! Although the identity of the "old Taoist priest" may not be exposed
, but the old fairy’s gimmick is really too big! Nalan Rongruo may not let it go!
Wen Xi gritted her teeth. The bay red horse under her was really too slow. If the officers and soldiers chased after her, they would catch up sooner or later. Now the only way to get rid of the people behind was riding a snow green! But Gu Yangtian's eyes were straight.
Watching with curiosity, Wen Xi couldn't get Xue Qing out in front of outsiders!
Gu Yangtian put down his son in his arms, then he kowtowed deeply and said, "Master, please also betroth Miss Qinglan to Gu as his fiancée!"
"Don't even think about it!" Before Wen Xi could say anything, Qinglan was already furious, "I won't get married!"
Gu Yangtian was not annoyed at all, and said with a slight smile: "I know Miss Qinglan's heartache, but I still want to ask her to be my fiancée, and wait until the three-year mourning period is over to officially marry me! I just want to be Miss Qinglan's
Husband, I just want my son to have a mother who is proficient in medical skills and has a compassionate heart! As for whether they are a real couple or just a couple in name, Miss Qinglan has the final say!"
Gu Yangtian's request was beyond Wen Xi's expectation. He looked at Qinglan, then turned over and jumped off the bay-red horse with her. Wen Xi looked at Gu Yangtian, who was kneeling there unwaveringly, and asked:
"Is it okay to be a couple in name only? Even if we sleep in separate rooms every day?"
"Yes!" Gu Yangtian said without hesitation, "My grandfather hopes that Miss Qinglan will become the Gu family's wife!"
Speaking of Gu, Qinglan couldn't help but have a touch of sadness in her eyes. Gu was her master, Qinglan couldn't help but be touched and moved.
Gu Yangtian added: "Gu already has a son, and the Gu family has no heirs, so even if they are husband and wife in name only, it doesn't matter if they can't have any physical contact!"
Gu Yangtian, in terms of appearance, is heroic and graceful. Compared with the praise Gu Yangtian gave to his grandson when he begged for mercy, he is even better! He is indeed a handsome man! But Qinglan's appearance is really average. They
The two people standing together do not seem to be a good match. But in terms of medical skills, Gu Yangtian is definitely far inferior to Qinglan. And his requirements are so low, just get married, no need to consummate the marriage! And Qinglan,
It's hard to let her be alone for the rest of her life? Thinking of this, Wen Xi felt a little moved.
Wen Xi asked in a deep voice: "Since you said you already have a successor, then you won't take concubines in the future?"
Gu Yangtian was stunned for a moment, and then said with a sigh: "It doesn't matter if you don't take concubines." He originally had a wife and a concubine, but they all died of the plague. Gu Yangtian thought that he was not a lecherous person, so he didn't take any concubines.
I won’t take any concubines!
Wen Xi looked at Qinglan and said, "I've asked all the questions you should ask. You can decide for yourself."
Qinglan gritted her teeth, looked at Gu Yangtian, and said: "There is one condition for me to marry you! If you follow the master, you must abandon everything in the world and follow the master to a place, and you will not come back in this life!"
Gu Yangtian looked at his son who had stopped crying on the ground and asked, "Including Yucheng?"
Qinglan nodded, "Of course, no matter who it is, you can't come back if you go!"
Gu Yangtian hesitated for a long time, looked at Qinglan and said, "Is Miss Qinglan there too?"
"Of course!" Qinglan replied.
Gu Yangtian then smiled brilliantly, picked up his son on the ground, stood up and said: "Then please ask Miss Qinglan to lead the way!"
Qinglan looked at Wen Xi, and Wen Xi nodded. There were too few people in the space. It would be good to have more people, but they must be loyal! Gu Yang was born in a medical family, so he was the best candidate, and in the space
Qinglan was busy refining medicine and managing the medicine garden. Yu Ludai and the two and a half-year-old children needed someone to take care of them. Isn't this Gu Yangtian the nanny sent by God? A sly smile appeared on his gentle face.
