203: Xiaocheng chaos (forty-three) [asking for monthly votes]
"A lot more?"
Chu Yao and Qi Shan took action almost at the same time.
One person feels the pulse with one hand.
Shen Tang couldn't help but feel ashamed and said: "...You two are so serious, I thought I was going to die soon."
"What did Wu Langhun say!" Chu Yao retracted his hand with a serious look on his face, "How can anyone curse themselves like this so early in the morning? There is nothing wrong with the pulse, and the Wen Qi is running smoothly and smoothly. It is indeed stronger than before. How is Dan Mansion? Wen Xinke Is there something strange?"
The accumulation of literary spirit is not the result of three or five days.
This is an extremely long and boring process. In a short period of time, the reserve of Wenqi has increased sharply. Chu Yao's first reaction is that Shen Tang has gone astray, or paid some price to overdraw his future potential in advance. Either way is quite harmful. Basic lifespan.
but--
With Wu Lang's temper, there was no reason or motive for him or her to do this. Chu Yao did not let go of his worries, but became even more worried.
Qi Shan repeatedly checked and found no strange phenomena.
"Dan Mansion is very normal, and Wen Xin is also very upright - well, it's not normal -" Shen Tang lowered his head as he spoke, looking at the location of Dan Mansion. The two of them blinked in shock, and then waited for a while. Asked a serious question, "Can stones develop in Dan Mansion?"
Qishan didn't understand and asked, "What are stones?"
Shen Tang frowned with worry.
"It is a solid block that grows out of certain human organs. It looks like a stone. When the number is large, there can be dozens or hundreds of pieces. This thing grows in the body and causes pain, bleeding, and infection. ...With the current medical level, I personally feel that I can basically bid farewell to this world..."
Others have stones in their kidneys, gallbladder and bladder...
When it was her turn, she became a stone in Dan Mansion?
Is Danfu also considered a human organ?
Shen Tang was puzzled.
Her words also frightened Qi Shan and Chu Yao. They calmed down and had different reactions.
Chu Yao asked: "How can stones grow on a human body?"
Refugees who are extremely short of food may go crazy with hunger and eat Guanyin soil and small gravels, but Wulang is a bakery in action and there is no way he can eat that stuff, so there is only one truth!
Qi Shan turned around and teased Chu Yao.
"Did you add rocks to your meal?"
Chu Yao's face turned livid: "Pray for Yuanliang!"
He was always amiable and showed a murderous smile. If Da Qishan started to talk nonsense, he would give him a few words to try.
Shen Tang had a dark look on his face.
"...That's not a stone, it just looks like a stone."
She felt that praying for kindness was within herself.
Chu Yao who adds stones to his meals is unethical, so what is he who eats them without knowing the stones in his meals? Is he short-sighted?
The two of them changed their previous relaxed attitude and looked at each other in tacit understanding.
Qishan said: "Find a doctor to come and take a look."
Their medical skills can only be seen as headaches and fever, and they are helpless in the face of difficult and stubborn diseases. If it is true that there is a stone in Danfu as Wulang said... ah no, the stone needs to be solved as soon as possible. Danfu Wenxin is comparable to the second A life cannot be lost!
Qishan approached Gu Chi without any courtesy at all.
When he heard that something happened to Shen Tang, Gu Chi quickly borrowed someone.
Shen Tang: "..."
The doctor, who had gray hair on his temples, looked like a very reliable Xinglin expert. He carefully checked Shen Tang's pulse several times. Hearing that she said she had a stone on her body, the doctor asked: "Does it hurt under the ribs?"
Shen Tang shook his head.
The doctor asked again: "Do you have abdominal pain?"
Shen Tang continued to shake his head.
The doctor asked again: "Do you have back pain or night sweats?"
Shen Tang shook his head.
The doctor asked several more questions, and there was no problem at all.
He packed the medicine box and said, "Isn't this young gentleman just making fun of old age? Your body is in perfect shape, your pulse is strong, your qi and blood are abundant, and you have no symptoms of stone formation in your body. If you are worried, young gentleman can drink more water and seek medical advice." A martial artist practices martial arts to strengthen his body, and his diet is less oily and meatless..."
Upon hearing this, Shen Tang felt that this doctor had something special.
Asked: "Can this cure it?"
The doctor said: "It's hard to tell."
Shen Tang: "Ah?"
The doctor explained: "This method has limited effect. In the past, most of the patients died from pain or suddenly had a high fever. The locations of the stones in the body were different. The patients before were all ordinary people, but Xiao Langjun was Literary scholar, the location of the birthstone is in the Dan Mansion, so the old man said, 'It's hard to say'."
Before leaving, he also wrote a prescription for Shen Tang.
She glanced at it and saw words like Desmodium, Poria, Plantain, Atractylodes, Alisma, Golden Hairpin... Shen Tang's expression was visibly embarrassed - Good guy, they are all diuretics and treatments. Edema and weak spleen and stomach...
She had Danfu stones, not urinary tract stones.
All right--
Maybe that thing in Danfu is not a stone at all.
Chu Yao and Chu Yao were slightly relieved when they learned from the doctor that Shen Tang was fine. In any case, it is a good thing to grow in literary power, as long as it does not damage the foundation. As for other things, if there is any discomfort, they should be the first to do so. Let them know when it's time.
After sending the doctor away, Shen Tang held his chin and thought: "My intuition tells me that the sudden increase in literary energy should be related to the 'stone' of Dan Mansion."
Qi Shan asked her: "What does the stone in Dan Mansion look like?"
If he hadn't known that Shen Tang wouldn't make fun of his body to scare others, he would have suspected that the so-called "stones" were nothing.
Shen Tang closed his eyes and felt carefully.
She said: "Like an animal?"
Qi Shan asked: "Animal? What animal?"
Shen Tang said: "A beast with four hooves? Like a raccoon slave or..."
Before they finished speaking, Qi Shan and Chu Yao both changed their expressions.
"You said it's a four-hoofed beast? It looks like a raccoon slave?"
Shen Tang didn't know why: "Yes."
Qi Shan stood up and strode outside.
After a while, I heard Gong Shuwu's voice coming from outside the house. He said, "Mr. Qi, please walk slowly. I'll tidy up my appearance..."
Qi Shan took Gong Shuwu, who was practicing sword and martial arts with his nephew Gong Cheng, into the house. He pulled the wooden door shut with his backhand and lowered the words to prevent outsiders from prying in. Gong Shuwu was shirtless, with his top half hanging down to his waist, with clear texture. The muscles were dripping with hot sweat.
He was pulled over from the martial arts training ground by Qi Shan.
As soon as I entered the house, I found that the atmosphere was not right.
Asked: "What happened?"
Shen Tang shrugged and spread his hands: "It's not a big deal..."
Praying for good will make you even more angry.
"Isn't it a big deal for you, a literary scholar, to have courage in your Dan family? Half a step, show it to Youli."
As soon as these words came out, Gong Shuwu's face darkened.
The person involved himself looked confused.
He hurriedly said: "What Yuan Liang means...that stone is Wu Dan? But didn't you say before that there are no examples of literary heart and Wu Dan that were condensed at the same time, but without exception, they either died young or were stupid. Lose all abilities and become an ordinary person?"
Chu Yao added: "They are stupid ordinary people."
Shen Tang: "..."
Is she herself the fool???
Gong Shuwu immediately did not dare to neglect him. He saw Shen Tang's talent in his eyes. Shen Wulang was still pregnant with the national seal. He was also the brother-in-law of his nephew, the only child of the Shen family... No matter which one it was for, Shen Tang Nothing can go wrong. But the test results——
There is indeed a martial spirit in Shen Tangdan Mansion.
The literary spirit is strong but the martial spirit is weak.
But the two maintain a very delicate balance.
The issue is--
When did Shen Tang gather his courage?
Gong Shuwu didn't know whether to test Shen Tang's IQ first or to doubt life first - the threshold for a courageous warrior is much lower than that of a literary scholar, but it is easy to get started but difficult to master. To condense martial courage, you must temper your body, muscles, bones, meridians...
Only after a lot of hard work can success come naturally.
Shen Tang, on the other hand, seemed to have skipped the entire process.
The three people of Qi Shan looked at each other, and the atmosphere was quiet.
Shen Tang is so special.
He is healthy, energetic, and powerful... As for his brain, it seems to be quite normal. There are no signs of stupidity yet, which completely breaks their previous common sense.
Gong Shuwu comforted the two gentlemen.
"Perhaps this matter has something to do with the national seal?"
The common sense they know is collected from ordinary people. No king has ever incorporated civil and military energy into his body before... Maybe the national seal is the key to creating special cases?
Since I have no clue, I can only comfort myself like this.
Qishan felt like he was about to sigh out all the energy he had spent in the past year: "If a tree is as beautiful as the forest wind, it will be destroyed. You must not reveal anything about young pears and Wu's courage, at least not yet. Shan is worried that it will cause unnecessary trouble." I am also worried that someone might want to spy on the national seal."
Shen Tang naturally understands the importance.
Life is the most important.
"Well, you can rest assured about this."
Qishan: "..."
No, he can't worry!
After taking care of Shen Tang, he turned his attention to Gong Shuwu.
In Shen Tang's current situation, it would be best for him to have a high-level martial artist to look after him. Before finding a replacement, he did not want Gong Shuwu to leave. With just one look from him, Gong Shuwu understood Qi without saying anything. Seven, eight, eight.
So, he nodded towards Qi Shan.
Some tacit understandings need not be expressed in words.
He is not an ungrateful person. After receiving so much care and help, it is of course his duty to use him now.
Shen Tang murmured softly.
"Maybe it's not as bad as you think..."
After all, he is a time traveler with rare attributes. He has no portable system, no portable space, thirdly, no portable spiritual spring, and fourthly, no portable grandfather. He is not invincible at the beginning and is a big boss all over the map. He just has an extra person with both civil and military skills. Goldfinger!
Is this too much?
Not too much!
Very beaver!
Qi Shan looked at Mr. Shen, who looked absent-minded, and suddenly felt tired. He sincerely felt that this young Mr. Shen was much more troublesome than all the previous "lords" put together. At least those "lords" would not Frequently surprise him with surprises.
He said: "Don't place your hope in 'maybe'."
This kind of uncertainty is the most unreliable.
Chu Yao was also secretly worried.
My destiny is really a fool, how can I still play this???
It is precisely because of this that he will live in the shadow of "Wuro turned into a fool overnight" for a long time in the future.
Shen·Shadow Maker·Tang said: "Let's think about it from another angle. Maybe my brain is already at the level of an idiot. Then I don't have to worry, right? Believe in yourself and me!"
Qishan: "..."
Chu Yao: "..."
Gong Shuwu: "..."
The eyes of the three people are very subtle.
Listen, there is some truth to it. Shen Xiaolangjun/Wulang/Shen Wulang is indeed not very smart at times.
Shen Tang, whose original intention was to brag about himself: "..."
But what do you three look like?
(╯‵□′)╯︵┻━┻
Do you really think she is mentally retarded!!!
What she means is - she has gone through the halo of wisdom and still has an IQ at the level of an ordinary person. Before she had the wisdom, she must have been a genius among geniuses. Only then can she obtain the unprecedented golden finger of both civil and military cultivation!
This is definitely not admitting that I am really mentally retarded!
Shen Tang was so angry that Qi Shan and the others had a heart attack.
However, she soon stopped caring about this.
The rebels outside the city regularly dumped corpses into the city at fixed points.
Although Wu Yuan and Gu Chi used the manpower left by the former governor Yan Cheng to maintain order in the city, many people were still forced to collapse by this operation. In addition to the disorder, there was also a serious problem before them. Food shortage began.
The price of food at the food store has doubled in just a few days!
There was a shortage of food for sale, and there was not much food stored at home. Coupled with the instigation of caring people, many people soon chose to take risks.
Some stole and robbed neighbors, or gathered crowds to attack rice shops. The police officers patrolled everywhere, but they could not suppress this unhealthy trend.
The people were short of food, and the garrison that defended the city was even more short.
Shen Tang almost choked on his saliva when he heard the news: "No one can be short of soldiers to defend the city if there is a food shortage. It is impossible for the grain depot to not have emergency food for war preparations. Can't we use it for emergencies?"
Apparently the autumn harvest has just passed.
Even if the harvest is not good, new rice will be put into storage.
Unexpectedly, Gu Chi revealed an unexpected truth: "It should be like this, but today I took people to check the grain depot and found that not only this year's new rice, but also the old grain stored in the past, only had 30% left." , there is a huge gap with the accounts!”
The new rice is nowhere to be seen.
In previous years, the amount of old rice was also reduced by 70%.
There's a lot of intrigue here.
Shen Tang asked: "Why didn't you notice it before?"
Gu Chi: "How can we find out? Shen Lang thinks that I am a god with three heads and six arms? In such a big Xiaocheng, there are too many places to take care of. Just one person is not enough. How can I have the energy to check after others have carefully settled the accounts? "False accounts? We had plenty of food before, so we dispatched soldiers to defend the city."
When he found that the available food was insufficient for seven days, the people in the city began to lack food. When he was about to open the grain depot for a while, he found that the grain depot was empty, and even the mice were too lazy to visit.
Some of the remaining 30% old rice was damp and moldy.
Judging from the color and smell, this batch of old rice is three years old.
Oh, it’s a good thing that the former county governor escaped quickly because he rubbed oil on his feet, otherwise the grain depot would have been enough for his whole family!
Without food, and without the enemy throwing corpses to create an atmosphere of terror and despair, the people in the city would be completely in chaos.
Shen Tang: "...it's useless even if you look at me..."
Let her supply dozens of mouths, and the cakes will be enough, but thousands of garrison troops and tens of thousands of people will not be able to drain her flesh and blood.
Gu Chi rubbed his brow.
He didn't expect to get a solution from Shen Tang.
In fact, he, like Wu Yuan, was not very concerned about Xiaocheng's final fate - in the face of the absolute strength of the rebels, all the city's efforts were in vain and stalled for time.
Why are you talking to Shen Tang about this...
Because it was Shen Talkative Lang who started the topic first!
Shen Tang frowned: "Should we rob the rich and give to the poor?"
