"Thank you so much, Master Lei, for saving your life!"
In the main hall of Qin Feng Martial Arts Hall, Li Captou, who had escaped from the danger of the epidemic, raised his hands and solemnly thanked Lei Hu.
"You are welcome!"
Waving his hand, Lei Hu said calmly: "Captain Li's health is weak, it's better to go back and recuperate!"
Just kidding, Li Gongfu came to ask for help just before his father was about to die. Li Captou's body had been almost destroyed by the epidemic. He was so thin that he was skin and bones. The forty-year-old man had a heavy feeling all over his body.
apathy?
"I know this!"
Li Captou said a little embarrassedly: "In addition to thanking Master Lei for saving his life, I also want to ask Master Lei if he has any antidote pills in his hand?"
Speaking of this, I am indeed a little embarrassed, but for the future of my little boy Li Gongfu, I have to come here even if I am shameless.
"Why, haven't the toxins in Capt. Li's body been detoxified?"
Lei Hu smiled half-heartedly and said, "Could it be that Capt. Li is so kind-hearted that he wants to get some detoxifying pills for the people in the city who are also suffering from the epidemic?"
this……
Mr. Li's skinny face, which was full of weakness and pale color, suddenly turned red.
Don’t you understand the principle of hitting someone without slapping them in the face, and scolding someone without exposing their shortcomings?
I was so depressed, but Li Captou didn't dare to stab him when he asked for help. He could only smile shamelessly and said: "It's impossible for me to continue working in the Yamen, but when I leave, I can only make a bed for the public servant."
Road!"
This is true. Although Li Captou is not a doctor or a master of martial arts, he can still sense the condition of his body. It is indeed not suitable to continue working in the yamen.
When catching the head is normal, it is very easy. He does not need to do it himself. He can just have his subordinates catch him.
But once a critical moment comes, as the boss of the county's police force, he not only has to risk his life on the front line, but he also has to expend a lot of energy and attention on the case.
With his current extremely weak physical condition, he really can't bear it.
Of course, if the county magistrate was related to him by the same clan, he could shamelessly occupy the manhole and not shit, but it is a pity that the Li family does not have such relatives and clans.
"father……"
Li Gongfu was embarrassed and moved at the same time. He shouted but didn't know what to say.
He actually wanted to say that with his current martial arts skills, there was no need to use such methods. As long as the county magistrate was not blind, he would be promoted to the position of head catcher.
No matter what, as the most direct executive of the county government, the policeman still needs strong hands in this country where there are immortals, gods, monks, demons, ghosts, and martial arts masters.
But this was the kindness of his father, but it seemed too utilitarian to act like this. Li Gongfu didn't have much to say, so he had to remain silent and let his father and his master talk.
"You kid, stop talking, dad knows what he's talking about!"
Mr. Li waved his hand, looked at Lei Hu who was sitting at the top, and begged: "Master Lei..."
"I can't agree to this!"
Lei Hu refused directly and explained: "The reason why the detoxification pill is so effective is that it is made with my blood as the main medicine and some precious medicinal materials!"
At this point, he ignored the shocked Li Captou and a group of disciples, and said leisurely: "Alchemy fire refining is still needed. Not to mention the money and price required, I am too lazy to spend such money on irrelevant people.
energy, so the detoxification pill is gone!"
this……
Li Captou turned around, solemnly saluted Lei Hu again, and said gratefully: "I didn't expect that Master Lei Pavilion paid such a high price to refine that life-saving detoxification pill. Li is really grateful!"
At this time, if he asked for the detoxification pill again, he would be out of touch, so he didn't mention it again.
As for paving the way for his little boy Li Gongfu, he will be successful immediately if he has the detoxifying pill. If not, there is no need to worry too much. He is still very confident.
"This is a list of prescriptions. Although it has little effect on detoxification, it can temporarily stabilize the condition and prevent it from getting worse!"
Unexpectedly, there was a bright future in another village. At this moment, Lei Hu handed over a prescription list. His voice was still unhurried, as if this prescription list was no big deal, and he said lightly: "Take it, it should be able to do something."
As for the effect, I don’t need to say more about how to operate it, right?”
"Thank you very much. I will take care of everything after that. You don't need to worry about it, Master Lei!"
Capt. Li had a cheerful face. Even though he did not have an antidote, he had a prescription to control his condition. He could still accomplish many things, and there would be no trouble for his son to take over the position of Capt.
"One more thing!"
Lei Hu spoke leisurely, pointed at all the disciples present, and said bluntly: "Let's put them all into the ranks of the police. There is no hard work for them on the dock now, and they are almost too poor to have anything to eat!"
ah……
Capt. Li was very surprised. He glanced at his fellow juniors and felt a little strange. At the same time, he also admired the ethics of these boys.
He knew that although these boys looked honest and responsible, their martial arts skills, according to his boys, were only a small class weaker than his own, and were incomparably better than the martial arts masters from several martial arts schools in the city.
Shao, this is quite remarkable.
But in order to make money to subsidize the cost of learning martial arts, these boys did not rely on their strong martial arts to do the strongman business. Instead, they went to the dock to work as coolies and did small jobs in the city. Capt. Li had to admire their character.
"no problem!"
He agreed to Lei Hu's request without hesitation. Anyway, due to the raging plague, several of the policemen in the yamen fell ill and died. At the same time, a few of them took the initiative to run away for fear of contracting the disease, and there happened to be vacant positions.
"From that prescription list, a few expensive main ingredients are deducted, and the remaining common medicinal materials are mixed and boiled. Although it cannot control the condition, it can also alleviate the rapid deterioration of the condition. I think it can also be of some help to you!"
Lei Hu then spoke up and said: "Don't worry, the people from the Special Yamen are probably close to finding the black dragon. There will naturally be a way to eliminate the plague by then. I think this prescription list can still play a big role."
of!"
Li Captou smiled bitterly and nodded, thinking that it was a good thing that he didn't refuse the request of Hall Master Lei, otherwise the suggestions later would probably be gone. It was really a bit uncomfortable. Isn't this too realistic?
But on second thought, he became happy again.
With the prescription given by Master Lei to control and alleviate the epidemic, many things became much easier to handle. At least he had the confidence to speak upright before the county magistrate.
Later, a prescription suddenly circulated in Qiantang County, which was very effective in alleviating the disease, and it quickly spread throughout Qiantang.
This prescription came from the county government, and it was said that it was written by the county magistrate. Immediately, county magistrate Li's reputation among the people of Qiantang suddenly reached a very high level.
With this prescription, which is like a timely rain, the survival chances of ordinary people infected with the disease are greatly improved.
Since the prescription has been widely spread, unless the patient's body has been tortured by the epidemic to the edge of collapse, the condition of other patients has not deteriorated so quickly, at least they don't have to worry about dying in a short period of time.
All of a sudden, the number of patients who died due to the rampant plague decreased significantly.
Moreover, the herbs on the prescription are all the most common ones. The prices are not high and the stocks of drug stores are sufficient. Even Qiantang County itself has a lot of produce. Except for the extremely poor, basically ordinary people can afford it. This is His merits are truly immeasurable, and the county's reputation among the people is mentioned again and again.
The reputation of the county magistrate has not only suddenly risen among the people, but also is quite good among the upper class circles. Who told him to come up with real prescriptions that can control the disease?
This plague was so severe that many gentry and celebrities were affected, and some of the unlucky ones even died of the disease.
The real prescription given by the County Lord has remarkable effects, and it is a kind of safety guarantee for the gentry and celebrities in the county, so the reputation of the County Lord is naturally promoted by them.
These were naturally things that happened after Li Captou presented the prescription.
I don’t know what tricks this guy used. Not only did he retain his position as the head catcher, but he also pushed his son Li Gongfu to the position of the county government’s head catcher in one fell swoop.
At the same time, several disciples from the Qin Feng Martial Arts School also successfully joined the yamen and became official police officers.
"Master, we all go to the Yamen as errands. I'm afraid we won't have much time to come back to accompany you in the future!"
Being able to work as a police officer in a yamen is a good way out for martial arts disciples. In this world where magical powers are manifested, once a police officer reaches a certain level, he has a certain rank, and the real power in his hands is not small.
If there is no powerful police officer in the yamen, no matter how powerful the chief officer is, it is estimated that the government decree will not be effective. The role of the police officer is very critical at certain times, such as arresting some powerful thieves, or encountering Even if you can't defeat the monsters, you still have to fight hard.
If a police officer is not treated well, or becomes one of the so-called low-income people, who on earth will work hard for the government or the chief official just for that small amount of income?
I heard that the Chief Inspector of the Criminal Department who is stationed in the capital has a rank equal to that of a Vice Minister, and the real power he holds in his hands is much greater than that of an average big shot.
It can be said that even though the police officer is not very eye-catching, it is still a direct path to the mainstream of officialdom.
Generally, Xianya agents are held by the so-called agent families, or by relatives of powerful local families. Ordinary warriors have no access at all, so it is very difficult to squeeze in.
At present, all the disciples in the martial arts school have been forced into the ranks of police officers. Regardless of their future prospects, at least it is a very stable and reliable guarantee for them, which is much more reliable than working for powerful people.
No, while they were happy, they couldn't help but worry about the loneliness of their master sitting alone in the martial arts hall.
"Hey, you guys are overthinking it, aren't I going to recruit a few new disciples?"
Lei Hu laughed angrily and scolded: "On the other hand, don't be a bad example when you go to the Yamen. If I know that you have done something that goes against the principles, I won't mind destroying your martial arts. Take good care of yourself! "
