In the afternoon, the sun shines on the small town of Xianrenju. The streets are filled with the sounds of various hawkers and the bustling flow of people, showing the warm atmosphere of human fireworks.
Xu Feng and Liu Ruyan stood under a thick banyan tree, both of them looked solemn. After a long time, Liu Ruyan suddenly said: "My parents are just doctors who practice medicine to save people. According to the master, they have never They formed deep grudges with others. Who did they offend? They actually caused death!" He must find out the truth of this tragedy before he can find the real culprit in a planned way.
Xu Feng said: "Many valuable clues have disappeared over the years since this tragedy. However, fortunately, you still have a biological uncle living in the world. I got to know him when I was forty. He is a generous and caring person." Friendship is important. We have similar interests and we became sworn brothers. When we were young, we were active in Sichuan. It is said that your parents also lived in western Sichuan for a period of time. He must know more details about your parents' past lives. But now he is seriously ill and cannot go away with you to track down the real culprit."
Liu Ruyan's bright eyes flashed with determination, but her voice was calm: "No matter what, I must find the murderer and avenge dozens of people in Liujiazhuang. One day, the truth will come to light. Yes. Uncle, let’s leave for Mount Hua tomorrow!”
Xu Feng pondered and said: "In this way, tomorrow morning, you and Ziyi will go to Huashan together. Zhongnan is not far from Huashan. It can be reached in one day. When you arrive at Huashan, you will meet your uncle. You and your nephew will have a good time chatting. He He will definitely be very happy. He may know the reason why your parents died tragically!"
Liu Ruyan looked solemn, nodded and said, "I will go on the road with my sworn brother immediately. However, I haven't told the master yet, and I don't want him to worry about me anymore. This letter was written by my mother to my uncle before she was killed. Yes, this is enough to show that my mother already knew that something bad was going to happen, but why didn't they avoid it in advance? There must be some hidden secret in this."
Xu Feng patted his shoulder and comforted him: "Don't guess now. When we go to Huashan and meet your uncle, maybe we can solve this mystery. Your uncle has serious lung disease. I want to find a good doctor and a prescription for him. If Being able to cure his stubborn illness can be regarded as a good thing! No matter what, we have to give it a try for now." He frowned slightly, thinking, "Beside Yanqi Cliff in Zhongnan, there is a young man with excellent medical skills. This person has a good reputation and is good at treating all kinds of difficult and complicated diseases. A few years ago, your mother-in-law suffered from rheumatism and the pain was so unbearable that she couldn't sleep at night. Later, after being introduced by a friend in the world, I specially asked this young man to come out and help you. This young man is really capable of diagnosis and treatment. After one month of treatment, your aunt's rheumatic disease really improved. Later, she received acupuncture several times, and she never had it again for a long time."
Liu Ruyan put the letter in his pocket and said: "Wolong Valley is not far from Yanqi Cliff. Let's go and ask that doctor now. If he can cure my uncle's disease, no matter what I do, I will be happy in this world." Such a dear uncle."
Xu Feng said: "Without further delay, we will rush to Yanqi Cliff immediately." The two of them turned around and quickly walked towards the stables in the backyard of the inn.
The strong horses neighed, and the two men turned their horses' heads, shouted, and galloped toward a deep mountain canyon to the west. The sound of hoofbeats is loud, filling the mountain road covered with rich grass. The mountains are quiet and quiet, birds are flying, and two riders and horses move forward and backward, as fast as arrows.
Not long after, the two of them had passed through the dense forest and were running along the mountain road for several miles. Deep in the forest, a long light green lake suddenly appeared in front of them. The water was clear and clear. Opposite it was the Yanqi Cliff that resembled an eagle's beak. There is a hanging corner pavilion on the cliff. The pavilion is hidden behind a clump of green orchid bamboos. A red flag flutters in the wind, with the three words "Wangyueju" written on the flag.
A slightly steep mountain road winds up from the lake on the other side, passing through a peach forest by the lake. The peach blossoms have bloomed, and small green fruits have been hung among the branches and leaves. A few wild ducks glided on the lake, occasionally erecting their long necks and flapping their wings. The two of them rode around the lake shore to the entrance of the hiking trail.
Liu Ruyan stopped her horse after drinking, looked up at the mountain pavilion, and said, "Uncle, does that good doctor live in the Diaojiao Pavilion above?"
Xu Feng turned over and dismounted, grabbed the long sword in his hand, looked around, and tied the horse next to a mulberry tree by the lake. The mulberry tree had dense leaves. The horse was reaching for the leaves and stirring them gently in his mouth. .
The two people tied up their horses and had to hike up. The mountain road leads from the lakeside to the cliffs and jungle.
Winding up the mountain, there are many ancient trees, flocks of birds, flowers and grass everywhere, and various unnamed wild fruits growing among the weeds.
The two of them walked quickly along the mountain road, and in a short time they arrived at the "Wangyue Pavilion" on the cliff. The four-corner mountain pavilion in front of us is quite ancient and elegant. It may have been in disrepair for a long time, and the pavilion pillars are somewhat mottled. Several vigorous ancient trees stand in front of the pavilion, still with lush branches and leaves. The three gilded characters "Wangyue Pavilion" shined dazzlingly in the sun.
There was no one in the pavilion. There was a round stone table in the center, and a chessboard on the table. The red and yellow chess pieces were scattered around the chessboard, which was extremely messy. There is a water tank behind the pavilion, which is filled with cool and clean water.
Behind the water tank, there stood a peach tree and a plum tree. The peach branches and leaves were somewhat damaged, and the flowers had long since withered and scattered all over the ground, but the flowers and leaves on the plum tree were dense and abundant. Behind the peach and plum grove, there are three houses with red bricks and green tiles. The door of the middle room is open, but the doors of the two rooms on the left and right are closed.
The mountain breeze blows, the petals fall, and a fragrant fragrance fills the air.
Xu Feng walked to the door, thought for a moment, and then knocked on the door on the left. "Dong, dong, dong," three times later, a young voice inside said, "Who is it?" He could only hear his voice but not see his person. .
Xu Feng was about to say hello when the door of the room opened. An old man with white hair and a red face appeared at the door. Behind him was a tall young man. The old man was dressed in purple robes. He gave Xu Feng a fist salute and smiled. "Who is this?" he asked, looking up and down at Xu Feng and the young man beside him.
Xu Feng was startled for a moment, thinking that when he came to Wangyue Pavilion to seek medical advice for his wife Shangguan Hongqin, he had never seen this old man before, and he knew the young man next to him, and he asked a friend to introduce him to him. The good doctor I visited.
The old man was sixty years old. His eyes were bright and energetic. He looked at the two people with half kindness and half wariness in his eyes. He saw that they were holding weapons in their hands. They were obviously not ordinary people. The young man was about thirty years old, with lofty eyebrows and a calm face. He just put his hands behind his back and smiled at the two of them.
Xu Feng hurriedly saluted the two of them with cupped fists, and said: "Mr. Shi, we have met before. Half a year ago, I was introduced by a friend and asked him to treat the stubborn disease in the house. Now, entrusted by my friend, I came here to seek treatment from him. "Yes, a friend of mine is suffering from serious lung disease, so I visited him again and asked him to give me a good prescription to save him." He said and hurriedly bowed to the young man.
The young man smiled, his eyes flashed, and he suddenly said: "Oh, I remembered, you are the old Mr. Xu who asked for your lady's medicine half a year ago!" He asked with concern, "How is your lady doing? I prescribed the medicine. Have you taken it on time?"
Xu Feng smiled and said: "Thanks to Mr., the illness in the house is no longer serious. I came to visit this time and asked Mr. to diagnose and treat a serious disease for a friend of mine. I would like to thank Mr. on behalf of my friend!" As he said that, he nodded slightly. He hugged his fists.
The young man also cupped his fists in return, frowned and asked, "I wonder which of your friends is feeling unwell? Is he a boy or a girl? How old is he?"
Xu Feng pondered for a moment and sighed: "He suddenly contracted a cold a few years ago. Although he was treated with medicine in time, his condition became worse day by day. He sought help from several doctors but could not be cured. Now his health is getting worse and he is probably terminally ill. He may be in danger of his life at any time. I have come to disturb you again this time. I hope you can save his life!"
