Azhu was stunned when he heard this, and couldn't help but turn his head to look at his girl.
Akui didn't come with her. The girl threatened to treat people's illnesses. Should she be allowed to take Akui's place?
If things continue like this, will there be too many miracle doctors in the house?
"Can you cure my girl's illness?"
The door was opened, and the woman in a coarse cloth coat, who was obviously dressed as a servant, looked at Xu Mingyi and the others for a moment, and her eyes, which were already dubious, couldn't help showing disappointment.
The boy who spoke looked like he was only fifteen or sixteen years old, and the one standing next to him looked like a young boy.
As for the man further behind, he looks like a butcher and a bandit - rather than someone who can cure illnesses and save lives, he looks more like someone who can kill...
I think it was probably under the guise of being able to heal her girl, and for other reasons.
Such things have not happened to them in the past two days.
Isn't that Mr. Lin who was driven away by the miracle doctor just now an example?
Thinking of this, the servant woman could only say politely: "...please forgive me, my miracle doctor is not at home at this time, and it is late now. I am a hard worker and a woman, so I am afraid it is not convenient to receive outsiders."
Guests - why don't you come back tomorrow to have a detailed discussion with my miracle doctor?"
The miracle doctor was not at home, and she was the only one guarding the girl. She had to be more cautious, and she could not just invite unknown people into the house.
Fortunately, this group of people is not very difficult to deal with. After listening to her words, the young master at the head said: "In that case, let's wait nearby until the miracle doctor comes back, and then we will visit him."
Still waiting nearby?
Faced with the opponent's persistence after giving in, the maid could only nod: "Then I'll excuse you all to wait a moment."
At this time, a girl's gentle voice suddenly came from the hall behind her: "Aunt Fang, go to the kitchen and see if my medicine is ready."
"Hey!" the servant girl responded quickly, and then closed the courtyard door.
Glancing at the closed courtyard door, Qin Wu whispered: "Girl, let's go back to the carriage and wait."
We still don’t know when this miracle doctor will come back.
Although he didn't know why the girl was so kind-hearted and came to ask for treatment, but judging from the girl's temperament, it was not impossible to do it just to show off.
But it's the same sentence - as long as he is not involved in the love affairs related to Wu Shisun, he will obey and cooperate unconditionally in the rest.
Xu Mingyi nodded.
Although she wanted to see Doctor Qiu as soon as possible, it was extremely cold at night in Ningyang City during the twelfth lunar month, so it was not advisable to wait here.
Several people turned around and left the place.
But before they had gone far, they vaguely heard the faint sound of the courtyard door being opened.
The movement was not big, and even seemed to be cautious, but these people were all martial arts practitioners, and their ability to capture the movement around them was always much sharper than ordinary people.
Azhu looked back and whispered: "Girl, it seems like the sound came from the courtyard we just went to."
But I didn't hear any footsteps approaching the yard, and I guess it wasn't the sound of the miracle doctor coming back from outside.
It's more like the people in the yard came out——
But what immediately reached the ears of several people was not the sound of ordinary footsteps.
If you listen carefully, it sounds like the sound of wheels slowly rolling on the ground...
But it was obviously not the sound caused by the carriage. Compared with the carriage, the noise was undoubtedly much smaller, and it could not even be called too alarming in the silent night.
Xu Mingyi immediately said: "Follow me and have a look."
At her signal, Azhu blew out the lamp in his hand, and several people chased after the source of the sound without leaving a trace.
After exiting this alley, there is a small street.
The night in the town was deserted. There was only one wonton shop open on the street, and the lanterns raised in front of the shop cast a bright light around it.
It was also in this ball of light that Xu Mingyi completely saw the person he was following.
It was a girl wrapped in a thick pink fur coat, sitting on a flexible four-wheeled vehicle, turning the rear wheel with some difficulty.
Xu Mingyi had the answer in his mind - this must be Doctor Qiu's daughter.
Doctor Qiu once said that his daughter was only one year older than her, and he did not have this daughter until he was over thirty years old - but his beloved wife was born prematurely due to an accident, and not long after the child was born, this unfortunate mother
Then he passed away.
It is said that it was from that time on that Dr. Qiu began to make up his mind to inherit his father's legacy and study medicine seriously.
Xu Mingyi and others followed the girl out of the small street and finally came to a river.
The girl stopped turning the wheel by the river. After sitting there quietly looking at the dark river for a while, she faintly let out a sob.
She took out something from her sleeve, raised her hand and threw it into the originally calm river, making a soft "dong" sound.
Then, she put her hands on both sides of the four-wheeler and stood up with some difficulty.
It's not that she can't walk, it's just that she's too weak to stand for a long time due to illness. Her father didn't want her to have to work too hard, so he asked someone to build this four-wheeler.
"Father……"
The girl choked and whispered softly.
She doesn't have much time left to survive her illness.
She no longer wants to be a burden to her father.
In the next life, she will be healthy and be her father's daughter.
The thin girl held her chest and coughed for a while, then exhaled a long breath and walked towards the river slowly and heavily.
Seeing this scene, Xu Mingyi seemed to have seen the scene of the girl falling into the lake and disappearing into the clouds.
This is what made Divine Doctor Qiu regret and blame himself so much in his previous life——
His daughter was seriously ill, but she did not die of the illness, but committed suicide by drowning in the river.
"Is the girl going to commit suicide?"
Xu Mingyi walked quickly out from behind the willow tree.
Ah Zhu lit the lamp in his hand again.
The girl didn't realize that someone was following her all the way. When she heard the sudden sound, she was slightly startled. She turned around and saw a young man walking towards her.
The girl let out a low exclamation, and immediately covered her mouth with her hands.
What a handsome young man...
Is this considered a favor from God before death?
"Girl, are you going to jump?" Xu Mingyi stood in front of her, glanced at the river that seemed to blend into the night, and said: "The river water in winter is freezing to the bone. If you really jump, you will regret it, but you will have no chance.
Come up again - has the girl thought about jumping?"
regret?
Maybe.
The girl twitched her lips: "If you don't regret it later, what does it matter? It just took a blink of an eye and you didn't know anything anymore."
Xu Mingyi just looked at her and said in a gentle tone: "I don't know why the girl has such thoughts. Would you like to talk to me? Maybe I can help the girl."
She could knock the person unconscious and carry him back, but in order to prevent such a thing from happening again, she still had to try to take the opportunity to ask all the reasons why this girl did such stupid things——
