The conflict in the emperor's family was finally settled due to the emergence of Sun Simiao's cowpox technique. At the same time, Li Zhi also used the cowpox technique to prevent Wu Mei from offering sacrifices at the Fengchan Taishan Conference.
Li Hong felt that he could further become the emperor, but the emperor and the queen did not allow him to do so. Therefore, he can only be the prince for now.
For the three of them, this incident was just a small disturbance, but for Zhong Kui, it was a huge disaster.
Of course, for those corpses buried or discarded by the emperor's personal guards, their deaths seemed worthless.
Fortunately, God loved Zhong Kui and gave him the mind of a wise man and the body of a beast.
Although he was covered in scars, he still walked back to Zhongnan Mountain from Luoyang. He didn't dare to walk during the day because passers-by would always think he was a mandrill, so he could only travel at night. Even so, there were still rumors of the coming of a mandrill on the road from Luoyang to Chang'an. It was reported by someone who saw Zhong Kui walking on his way at night.
During the day, Zhong Kui could only huddle up in the tomb and feed himself with a few offerings. At night, if he encountered an animal, Zhong Kui would catch it and eat its blood.
By the time he reached Mount Zhongnan, even he felt like he was no longer a person, but more like a ghost.
When Yun Chu and Wen Wen met Zhong Kui, he was eating meat. The meat was pork, but the pork he ate was extremely sloppy. He killed the pig, disembowelled it, and then threw the hair into the fire together. After the pig skin is burnt black, you can eat it with a knife.
The pork skin was charred black on the outside and a gorgeous pink on the inside. In just a moment, Yun Chu and Wen Wen saw that he had eaten more than two kilograms.
Yun Chu brought a lot of delicious food when he came, but unfortunately, Zhong Kui didn't even look at it. After this incident, Zhong Kui's appetite changed a lot.
Ghosts should eat blood. Only humans can eat the exquisite food that Yunchu brought. Yin Erhu clearly stated what happened to Zhong Kui in his report. However, the two of them did not see Zhong Kui in the corpse pit and thought that Zhong Kui was dead.
During the battle at Qixiaguan, among the Taoists, only Zhong Kui actually participated in the battle, and the target of his battle was the Queen's Thousand Niu Guards.
Fighting, fighting, another group of people came, obviously Hwarang disciples. After they came, they killed many Taoist priests without saying a word. Even though many Taoist priests had dropped their swords and surrendered, they still killed with great vigor.
Until finally a group of men in black came and massacred them indiscriminately with crossbows. He saw Ye Fashan surrendering, Zhang Guo surrendering, and Li Chunfeng surrendering. He fought hard to rescue them, but the few remaining soldiers took the opportunity to inflict many wounds on him and fell to the ground exhausted.
Until he was thrown into the corpse pit, Zhong Kui didn't understand who the Taoist sect had provoked and would be hunted down by such a powerful group of warriors.
It can be said that if Zhong Kui is a ghost now, he is also a Hutu ghost.
"What should we do next?" Wen Wen was obviously seduced by Zhong Kui's greedy eating attitude. She grabbed a chicken from the food box that Yun Chu brought and started to eat it.
He felt that Zhong Kui's eating appearance was full of wild beauty, so the way he gnawed on the roast chicken looked particularly rough.
"First find out whether I am a human or a ghost." Zhong Kui felt guilty when facing the two of them, so he ate extra much.
Facing someone like Zhong Kui, Yun Chu would naturally not complain about why he didn't discuss it with them before going to Luoyang.
After all, Zhong Kui is a completely free person. He also has his own ideas and goals. It is normal to talk about it or discuss it or not.
"Stop eating, you'll starve to death if you eat any more." Seeing Zhong Kui still eating, Yun Chu handed over a wine flask.
Zhong Kui took the wine bottle and took a long sip and then said to Yun Chu: "In the future, don't rely on your martial arts skills to be careless. When a group of soldiers rush over, there is no way for me to stop them without the weapons at hand. I I was able to escape death this time, probably because someone let me off on purpose, so you have to be careful in the future." Yun Chu said;
"The soldier who injured you was the Qian Niu Guard, and the person who killed those Taoist priests was the Hwarang disciple. The person who finally killed Qian Niu Guard, the Hwarang disciple, and the Taoist priests together was the emperor's personal guard, led by the dead eunuch Zuo Chun. .Also, Zhang Guo was cut open by the emperor's order with a thousand-ox knife, and Luo Gongyuan was also cut open by a thousand-ox knife. Ye Fashan committed suicide by taking poison in order to leave a whole body, but he was still ordered to be cut open by the furious emperor. It is said that the corpses of these three people are still placed by the emperor in the Imperial Medical Office of Luoyang. The internal organs were eviscerated by the medical workers and stuffed with fragrant medicine. The emperor hopes that the three of them can be resurrected to cause trouble for him. Zhong Kui , do you think this is possible?" Zhong Kui shook his head and said, "No." Rou Wen spat out a chicken bone and said with a smile, "Li Chunfeng said that those three people have been ranked in the immortal class and will not come back." Yun Chu said, " Do you hate the emperor?" Zhong Kui shook his head and said: "The people sent by the emperor were not sent to kill me. I even had a chance to run away at the beginning, but I didn't run away myself and wanted to fight with the people in the temple. It was only in the end that I discovered that I was the only one who really wanted to fight. The emperor even spared my life when I was seriously injured and fell to the ground. Do you think I have any reason to hate the emperor?" Wen Wen glanced at Yun Chu and said : "This person's brain is broken." Zhong Kui finally stopped eating pink pork, patted his head and said, "It's not that the brain is broken, it's that the world is broken. When I try my best to help When the Taoist sect stepped onto a new level, they thought I was a useful fool. When I defended the Taoist sect with my life, they knelt down and surrendered. They watched me fight alone, and in the end, I was thrown into the corpse like a carrion. Damn it. When I thought I deserved my death, I survived and found out that whether I died or not had no effect on the outcome. Back then, the emperor humiliated me in every possible way because of my ugly appearance, which made me lose confidence in the world, so I Concentrate on the Tao. Now, the Tao has left me covered in bruises and no one cares. Yun Chu, from now on, just think of me as a ghost, a ghost that can eat ghosts." When a weak woman burst into tears. , always makes people feel a bit of pity. When a scholar with beautiful features sheds tears, it makes people feel pitiful... Under normal circumstances, when a tall man with a beard sheds tears, and lets the tears flow along the steel When the needle-like beard drips down, people's first reaction is to laugh.
However, Yun Chu and Wen Wen not only couldn't laugh now, but also had the urge to cry with Zhong Kui.
Zhong Kui cried so sincerely that he did not hide his sadness, letting his tears flow freely, and helplessly stretched out his hand towards Yun Chu, hoping that Yun Chu could save him again.
Yunchu grabbed Zhong Kui's hand, sniffed and said, "Change your clothes, tidy up your beard and hair, and I will take you to see what the true Tao is." Wen Wen smiled and took out an extremely sharp dagger from his sleeve. He also shook the dagger and said to Zhong Kui: "For so many years, I have always wanted to tidy up those messy beards on your face and the hair that looks like tangled grass on your head. Now, I finally have a chance." So, under a tree Under the canopy of the honey locust tree, Zhong Kui was lying on a bamboo chair with his upper body naked, and his whole head was exposed outside the lounge chair. He gently washed Zhong Kui's beard and hair thoroughly with warm water, and then proudly cut the knife on Zhong Kui's head.
This dagger made of wootz steel lived up to its reputation, and hair and beard fell off wherever the blade passed. Wen Wen picked up the dagger, put it in front of her mouth and blew on it gently. The stubble and hair residue on the blade naturally slipped off.
"Real hair-cutting! What is broken is the beard and hair of a real man like Idiot Zhong." Yun Chu looked at Zhong Kui's hairless head and face and nodded: "After removing the beard and hair, Idiot Zhong looks like a mere He is generally ugly. The reason why he looked ugly in the past is that his messy hair and beard are responsible for 60% of the responsibility." Zhong Kui naturally didn't care about his parents' nonsense about his body, hair, and skin. At that time, the only people he could truly trust were Yun Chu, Wen Wen, and Di Renjie. If these three people betrayed him again, he would have absolutely no motivation to continue living.
Therefore, as a top warrior, Zhong Kui didn't even blink when the sharp dagger in Wen Wen's hand passed over his head, throat, eyes and other parts with a deep chill.
When Rou Wen started to clean Zhong Kui's balls with warm water, he couldn't help but sigh: "Such a fool, if you don't bully him, I would really be sorry for my ideal of being a bad guy." Zhong Kui rubbed it with his big scarred hands. He smiled at his bald head and said, "It's so cool." Yun Chu and Wen Wen laughed together, not because of what Zhong Kui said, but because of his weird egg head. Yun Chu's shaved head would look like a braised egg, Gentle's shaved head would not make people think he was a little nun. Only Zhong Kui's bald head was in a weird mountain shape, which was very unique.
However, it also turned Zhong Kui's ugliness into something weird and funny. Therefore, when the three of them walked into Chang'an City, Zhong Kui attracted a lot of attention and was even pointed at.
Just this change made Zhong Kui extremely happy, because no one dared to take another look at him before, and every child would cry when they saw him.
It was good now. A beautiful girl in pink gauze lay in her father's arms, pointing at Zhong Kui's head and saying something unknown, which made the father and daughter giggle together.
Zhong Kui made a face at the little girl. The little girl still didn't cry, but laughed even louder.
Speaking of which, the huge city of Chang'an has finally accepted Zhong Kui's ugliness. This is a sign of the magnanimity of a top city.
A person as smart as Zhong Kui will immediately understand that what Yun Chu said is actually this. He has hoped to integrate into the large group all his life. Now, he has at least done half of it and will no longer scare the children into tears... Although the weather is hot, there are many children on the street, and their goals are basically the same, they all go to Tai Hospital.
The old fairy spent all his personal savings and even packed up and sold the house where he lived, just to cultivate cowpox.
Cowpox can only be found in the milk rooms of cows. For this reason, the old fairy got more than a hundred cows to specifically cultivate cowpox.
Chang'an Left-behind Mansion is very rich, Wannian, and the two counties of Chang'an are also very rich. It stands to reason that it is not impossible to collect some money for the old immortal to buy a cow.
Unfortunately, the government's credibility was not enough for the people to allow them to vaccinate their children. The credit of the old god is enough... The old god is not willing to pass on the crisis of failure to the government. He does everything personally. If his own money is not enough, he will sell Lao He's house. If Lao He's is not enough, he will sell it to the imperial doctor. The houses and property of other medical officers were assigned.
No one complained, and no one showed any dissatisfaction. There were even people vying for the opportunity to sell the property.
When Yun Chu, Zhong Kui, and Wen Wen arrived at Tai Hospital, the old immortal in a pure white robe was flicking his tongue and making strange noises in order to attract the attention of the child in front of him. With his left hand, he pinched A small needle knife was dipped in a white jade bottle and quickly pierced the child's arm. Before the child could feel pain, the vaccination was over.
The old god took out a piece of pale yellow rock candy from the plate next to him and stuffed it into the child's already deflated mouth, then casually threw the used needle knife into the antiseptic medicine that made a small opening next to it.
After the child's parents thanked him profusely, the old god raised his head and said to the family of six waiting at the door: "Next."
