Zhang Peng and his party arrived at Luming Town with difficulty, but Duan He's three hundred Qingqi did not arrive.
People in the team took off the black gauze covering their eyes one after another. This was specially instructed by Zhang Peng to prevent snow blindness.
As soon as the motorcade arrived in front of the archway of Luming Town, they saw a group of people walking out of Luming Town. The leader was a chubby middle-aged man wearing luxurious furs, and the people behind him were also full of smiles.
"Squire Cai Kun of Luming Town, may I ask if it is Mr. Kaishi who is visiting Luming Town?" The middle-aged man at the head smiled from ear to ear and bowed in a humble posture.
"My Lord, Gongsun Qishi, came to Luming Town to visit an old friend. I wonder where Brother Xiangyin is. Can Brother Cai tell me?" Mr. Qishi was very worried about Mr. Xiangyin. He hurriedly got off the carriage and returned the courtesy and said directly.
He was interested in coming, but he didn't seem to care much about the welcome ceremony in Luming Town.
Zhang Peng did not dismount. He carefully observed the people of Luming Town and soon discovered something unusual.
"Princess Princess, there are dozens of people, and everyone is smiling. Do you think it's normal?" Zhang Peng asked.
Xu Wanyi also looked around at the expressions of these townspeople. She shook her head: "I didn't feel anything was wrong. They didn't mean any harm. I can guarantee that."
Zhang Peng still refused to give up and asked again: "I have counted. The leader Cai Squire and the clan elders behind him were laughing when they saw us from a distance. Knowing that Mr. Yu Qishi still spoke to him now,
She is smiling, and her smile remains unchanged! Princess, laughing is actually very tiring, no one can keep smiling for so long!"
Xu Wanyi felt a little weird when she said this. As Zhang Peng said, this group of people are so capable of "laughing" and their laughter is "too professional".
"As soon as you come, let's be in peace. These townspeople have no martial arts skills, so we don't need to be afraid," Xu Wanyi said in a low voice.
At this moment, the two brothers Gao Gao and Gao Shi approached on horseback. Gao Da cautiously reported: "The scouts at the outpost have all returned. They did not see any danger in Luming Town. The townspeople are very worried about them."
Enthusiastic and caring.”
"Oh? You think so too?" Zhang Peng asked with a smile.
Gao Shi shook his head: "We have no intention of doubting the intelligence of the army spying on horses, but we are considering that the people in Luming Town are not as good as Beiting, and they do not have deep feelings for the Beiting Army, so why would they spy on the Beiting Army?"
So loved? You know, how can the villagers in the countryside be completely unafraid when they see a fully armed army?"
"I am very happy that you can think deeply. I am about to enter the town. You two brothers will give Uncle Wang a warning, and then follow him to protect Mr. Kaishi."
"No!" The two brothers accepted the order and left.
At this time, Mr. Kaishi had returned to the carriage, and Squire Cai, still smiling, humbly held the horse for Mr. Kaishi.
The citizens of Luming Town consciously opened the passage, and Zhang Peng and his party followed Mr. Kaishi and slowly drove into the town.
As soon as they entered the town, everyone smelled the smell of herbal medicine. It was not very strong, but it was lingering. Even the heavy snow weather could not cover up this strange smell.
The adsorption capacity of snow is very strong. You can smell it clearly even on heavy snow days, so you can see how strong it is on weekdays.
Squire Cai seemed to understand Zhang Peng's thoughts. While leading the horse, he introduced the customs and customs of Luming Town with a smile.
“There are moose living in the forest north of Luming Town, hence the name!”
"Our town of Luming has outstanding people and rich products. We grow melons and grapes all year round and are famous in Beiting."
"The medicinal fragrance that everyone smells is a unique herbal medicine in Luming Town called Kulian. After being cooked and burned as incense, it can refresh the mind. Every year, many doctors come to buy it."
"The courtyard in front is our newly built Luming Academy, and Mr. Xiangyin is in the courtyard..."
Zhang Peng listened very carefully. This gentleman Cai was full of energy. He had walked for so long without blushing or panting. He didn't look like a fat man at all. Moreover, he spoke clearly and was an eloquent person.
.
"We also have bitter pineapple in the princess's palace, and we occasionally burn incense." Xu Wanyi nodded slightly, "It is indeed very similar to the smell in this town."
When Zhang Peng heard Xu Wanyi's words, not only did he not relax his guard, but he tightened his grip on the sword: "Princess, I still feel something is wrong. Although I haven't seen anything weird so far, I can't be too careful in a strange place."
However, our team will prepare all the meals by themselves from today on. After eating the food, we can go hunting in the forest, and when we are thirsty, we can collect snow and boil water."
"You're right," Xu Wanyi agreed after some thought...
Luming Academy is a very elegant courtyard. It is not splendid but has a rare ancient charm. The layout of the courtyard is quite Jiangnan style. If it were not for the heavy snowfall, Zhang Peng would have really thought that he had arrived at the Jiangnan water town.
When Zhang Peng saw Mr. Xiangyin for the first time, he knew that this once famous scholar was in trouble.
Because of the blessing of zhenqi, he no longer needed a stethoscope to hear the murmur in Mr. Xiangyin's chest when he breathed. Coupled with his sallow complexion and hot forehead, even Zhang Peng, who was not a respiratory medicine doctor, could tell the difference.
This is severe pneumonia.
Well, the letter said that he was seriously ill and his life was in danger. It turned out that he was not lying.
Thinking of this, Zhang Peng felt a chill in his heart. How sad was it that a generation of great scholars had come to be just tools? This is really sad.
Their purpose is indeed not to curb the rise of Beiting Cultural Context. The "robbing people" posture they created previously is just a feint attack. Their targets are themselves and Xu Wanyi!
But now that he and Xu Wanyi have arrived at Luming Town, why haven't they started yet?
The enemy's bow and arrow are deflected but not fired. This is the most critical moment. You must remain vigilant.
"Ahem," Mr. Xiangyin coughed and opened his eyes on the hospital bed. Due to the loss of vitality, he almost didn't have the strength to cough.
"Brother Xiangyin!" Mr. Kaishi held Mr. Xiangyin's hand with a sad expression.
Mr. Xiangyin seemed to want to speak, and his eyes seemed to have regained some clarity, but the words could not come out in his throat. In the end, he had to stare at Mr. Kaishi with his eyes wide open, and said "
"Woo woo" sound, very urgent and exciting.
"Brother Xiangyin, don't be excited. Your health is important. You will take good care of yourself and take good care of yourself. You will definitely get better!" Mr. Kaishi is still comforting his old friend until now.
It's just that Mr. Xiangyin was still speechless, and the expression "woo woo" failed to make people understand his intention. Until finally, he ran out of strength and fell into coma again.
Mr. Kaishi let out a long sigh and knelt down beside the hospital bed, his face expressionless and sluggish.
Wang Changling couldn't bear it and wanted to speak to persuade his teacher, but Zhang Peng stopped him. Out of the professional ethics of a doctor, he knew that Mr. Xiangyin was hostile to Beiting, but he still said: "Mr. Xiangyin
The disease is terminal, but it is not incurable."
