"Dad, why didn't you tell me and Dayou that you weren't feeling well? Why did you still insist on working in the fields alone? Doesn't this make people say that we are unfilial?"
After the two of them entered the house, Liu Guangqi helped the old man onto the kang, and the old man's daughter-in-law also followed in with a big belly. Although he was complaining about the old man's show of prowess, Liu Guangqi could see the woman in the other man's eyes. In fact, I am worried about the old man's health.
"Hey, Da You is busy smelting iron, and you are pregnant. Who else will do the work in the fields if I don't do it? We can't let the crops in the fields go to waste. If they do, then what will we eat next year?"
The old man waved his hand and said
"It's all my fault, Dad, I shouldn't have gotten pregnant."
The pregnant woman said with a look of self-blame.
"Bah, what are you talking about? What you are carrying in your belly now is the lifeblood of our Lao Tian family. I am still counting on you to give me a grandson."
The old man's expression changed when he heard this, and he sighed a few times. Maybe it was because the movement was a bit too big, and the old man's waist immediately hurt, making the old man grimace.
"Doctor, I'm sorry, your parents are too short-sighted to make you laugh."
"It's okay, the family is very warm. Let's get started."
"Excuse me, doctor."
Upon seeing this, the old man's daughter-in-law immediately made room for Liu Guangqi.
"What's your surname, old comrade?"
"My surname is Tian."
While taking the old man's pulse, Liu Guangqi chatted with him about his daily life. Soon, Liu Guangqi found out the root cause of the other man's disease through chatting and diagnosis. The cause was very simple. In fact, it was the root cause of the disease that had fallen into the mountains when he was panning for gold in the early years.
Knowing the symptoms and causes, Liu Guangqi began acupuncture treatment. Liu Guangqi's acupuncture technique is very simple, not as fancy as described in martial arts movies. If it is really like what is written in the novel, is it treating people or performing for them?
Acupuncture is all about being steady and precise, and sometimes faster is better. Also flying needles, be careful to fly onto the patient’s head.
"Dad, what's wrong with you?"
Just when Liu Guangqi took out the moxa leaves to give the old man moxibustion, a young man suddenly pushed the door open and barged in. The noise was so loud that it almost scared the moxa stick out of Liu Guangqi's hand.
After the young man came in, he ran directly to the kang and looked nervously at the old man lying on the kang.
"It's okay, it's the same old habit. If you don't stare at the stove, why are you running back? Go back quickly. You just became the village chief, and it won't be good if others see you."
The old man saw his son running back home from where he was making steel, and he quickly raised his arms to drive him back.
"Why am I back? If Guangping hadn't gone to the stove to sign with me and said you were helped home, I wouldn't have known you had back pain again. Why didn't you say it? Really. Stop moving now. Lie down now."
The old man's son looked like a filial son. When he saw the silver needles all over his body, he quickly pushed the old man to the kang. Then he turned to look at Liu Guangqi and asked.
"Doctor, is my dad's disease serious? Can it be cured?"
"It's an old problem. Treatment is one thing, but the main thing is maintenance. As long as you don't do heavy physical work in the future, there should be no problem."
Looking at the familiar face in front of him, Liu Guangqi pretended to be calm. Although he couldn't pronounce the name of the person in front of him, he had watched the TV series starring him since he was a child. Liu Guangqi's most vivid memory was the movie Kintaro's Happy Life.
It seems that I didn't know that I got into that TV series again.
"That's good, as long as it can be cured. You are Doctor Liu from the city, right?"
Hearing Liu Guangqi's words, the old man let out a sigh of relief, then looked at Liu Guangqi and asked.
"Have you seen me?"
"I haven't seen it before. I just know all the doctors in Jinshan Commune. Doctors I haven't seen before suddenly appeared one after another. Except for Dr. Liu from the city, there must be no one else. Let me introduce myself. My name is Tian You. I am The village director of Jinniu Tuo."
"Hello, Director Tian, I am a doctor from the city. My name is Liu Guangqi."
"Director Tian, could you please tell everyone in our village that I am here? If they feel any discomfort, they can come to me. I will show them to them for free, without charge."
"No problem, no problem, I'll inform them right away. Just wait at my house while her mother pours some water for Dr. Liu."
When Tian heard that there was such a good thing, he ran out.
The villagers who were notified soon swarmed to Tian You's home, and Liu Guangqi was busy until six o'clock in the afternoon.
Tian You persuaded most of them to go back, otherwise Liu Guangqi would be too busy to finish tomorrow morning.
According to Liu Guangqi's estimation, he will have to stay here for the next few days, because Jinniutuo Village is located at the foot of Jinniituo Mountain. Naturally, the Japanese gold mining team cannot let go of the people in the village. Most of the people in the village were gold miners back then. , all the problems on my body were left behind at that time.
After all, according to the nature of the Japanese, who are inferior to animals, they will definitely not treat these villagers as human beings.
"Director Tian, let me ask where Jia Dongxu, who is assigned to your village, is. I have something to give him."
Liu Guangqi asked while packing his things. He had been here for a day and he had not seen Jia Dongxu. According to Jia Dongxu's temperament, he should have come over long ago.
"He, he probably went into the mountains."
"Going into the mountains, why is he going into the mountains when he has nothing to do?"
Liu Guangqi stopped what he was doing when he heard this.
"He probably heard from the villagers that there were gold bricks hidden in the mountains, so he went into the mountains to look for gold bricks."
"Gold brick?"
"It's like this. There has always been a legend here. It is said that when the Japs surrendered and retreated, they wanted to transport all the gold bricks they had saved before. However, because the news was leaked, they were ambushed and could not transport the gold out. In order to prevent When we got these gold bricks, we hid those gold bricks in the mountains.
Hey, it's all just speculation. Because there was an ambush and the gold bricks were not found, some people said that the gold bricks were still hidden in the mountains. That's eight hundred gold bricks. How could the little devils stay here? Even if they carry it on their backs, they have to take it away. Do you think so? "
Seeing Liu Guangqi's interest, Tian You took the initiative to tell Liu Guangqi the story of BRIC.
"If others don't know, then the miners must know whether the gold was transported away. If you ask someone, you won't know."
When Liu Guangqi mentioned the miners, Tian You suddenly became silent, his eyes staring blankly at the table in front of him, and then the seven-foot-tall man covered his face and wiped away tears.
"I can't ask. The kid is not a human being. In order to prevent others from knowing whether the gold bricks were taken away by them or hidden, when they retreated, they drove all the more than 200 miners into the mine and killed them. , only one of our family, Tianyou, survived. When I think of the miners who risked their lives to save him, our family, Tianyou, can't help crying."
Seeing Tian You's appearance, Liu Guangqi suddenly felt that the miners were in danger. Sure enough, what Old Man Tian said next made Liu Guangqi so angry that his teeth itched. He wished he could go back in time and shoot those bastards with a gun.
"I'm sorry, Brother Tian, I shouldn't have asked."
Seeing Tian You who was trapped in memories and unable to extricate himself, Liu Guangqi walked up to him and patted him on the shoulder to comfort him.
"It's okay. You asked the right question. You asked well. More than ten years have passed, and not many people remember these people anymore. If you don't ask, they will be completely forgotten. That's me. This look makes you laugh."
Tian You wiped the tears from his face and grinned.
"What a good joke is this? As the old saying goes, men don't shed tears easily, but they are not sad yet. It is worth shedding tears for these sacrificed miners. These are the evidence of the Japanese invasion. I will definitely look back. Publish the stories of these miners in newspapers so that everyone can remember these miners and this piece of history.”
"Okay, okay, if it is really published in the newspaper, you must send me a copy, and I will burn it to them then. Tell them that someone still remembers them."
"Okay, Brother Tian, it's getting late and I should go."
After saying a few words to Tian You, Liu Guangqi picked up the medicine box and prepared to leave.
"Wait a minute, don't leave in a hurry. You have to eat here before leaving. You have been tired and busy for a day. How can you leave without even eating a proper meal? Let's go, let's go."
As Tian You said this, he prepared to drag Liu Guangqi to the village canteen.
"No, I'm not hungry at all now."
Liu Guangqi declined, saying that although the food in the cafeteria looked good, it was a kind of torture for Liu Guangqi.
In the words of Liu Guangqi's hometown in his previous life, the food cooked in the big cafeteria is always salty when you eat it. It has no other taste except salt.
Liu Guangqi's stomach couldn't stand it after eating it for so many days. He was planning to go into space tonight to improve his life. How could I stay here and suffer?
"I really don't want to eat it."
"I'm really not hungry, so I'd better save some food for the village."
"Well, just wait a moment,"
After saying that, Tian You walked to the back room and walked out with a wad of money.
"Brother Tian, what are you doing? I told you it was a free consultation."
Liu Guangqi's expression suddenly changed when he looked at the money in Tian You's hand.
"Brother, listen to me. You have been busy all day. In order to see a doctor in our village, you didn't even have a single meal. As the village director, I feel really sorry. I don't have to eat, but for this money, you It must be collected.”
Tian You took Liu Guangqi's hand and said sincerely.
"Brother Tian, there's really no need. I'm not short of money. My monthly salary is more than 100 yuan. I'm not short of money. I just want to take this opportunity to see a doctor for the folks."
"I know you are not short of money, but it is your money. This is my wish. If you don't accept it, you won't come tomorrow."
"Let's do this, Brother Tian, take this money back. If you really want to thank me, you can sell me these scissors."
Liu Guangqi was so entangled by Tian You that he had no choice but to do anything. He pointed to the scissors on the table beside him.
"What are these scissors? You can take them if you want, but you still have to hold on to the money."
Tian You looked at the scissors on Liu Guangqi's finger and patted it into Liu Guangqi's hand without saying a word. At the same time, he put money into Liu Guangqi's hands.
"Brother Tian, listen to me, listen to me. These scissors are not ordinary scissors. They are crane-shaped scissors from the Ming Dynasty. They are three or four hundred years old. You understand what I mean. ."
"I don't understand. No matter how long it lasts, it will still be a pair of scissors even if it lasts a thousand years. Will it still be able to become a spirit?"
Liu Guangqi thought that because of his words, Tian You would definitely understand the value of the scissors. Unfortunately, he overestimated Tian You's cultural level. He had never left Jinshan Commune in his life, so he knew what antiques were. . He knew it was a pair of scissors.
"It can't turn into sperm, but it can turn into gold. Don't underestimate this pair of scissors. You can sell them for at least twenty yuan in the city. This is still the current price. If it were ten years ago, the price would be even lower." It can be doubled even five times more."
"Really or not, a pair of broken scissors costs twenty yuan. Brother, you don't want to accept the money, so you just made up an excuse."
Tian You looked at Liu Guangqi and then at the scissors in his hand, and said in disbelief.
"Why am I deceiving you? Think about it for yourself. It is not easy for something to be passed down from four to five hundred years ago to the present. If nothing else, it is worth this price just because of its rarity. Really? Speaking of which, I still have to pay you."
As he said this, Liu Guangqi was about to take out another twenty yuan from his pocket and hand it to Tian You.
"Give me the money, no, no. If you want it, take it."
Seeing Liu Guangqi's serious expression, Tian You was really frightened. He quickly held Liu Guangqi down and stopped mentioning the money.
"Let's do this. These scissors will be regarded as my reward for treating the villagers in your village. You are not allowed to mention paying me again in the future."
"Okay, if you don't mention it, don't mention it. Then walk slowly, big brother"
Seeing Liu Guangqi's firm attitude, Tian You stopped worrying about money and scissors and sent Liu Guangqi to the entrance of the village.
"Good stuff."
After leaving Jinniituo Village, Liu Guangqi took out the scissors he took from Tian You's house. This thing was not something Liu Guangqi made up casually to stop Tian You's mouth. It was a real pair of scissors from the Ming Dynasty. Liu Guangqi walked in. I saw it at first sight.
The shape of this pair of scissors is very handsome and elegant, just like the scissors that Teacher Tony will use to cut hair in the future. Moreover, the material is not ordinary iron, but silver, otherwise it would not be so well preserved. If the iron scissors were made of iron, they would have rusted into a pile after hundreds of years. Not to mention anything else, just selling it for money, according to the weight of this pair of scissors, it can be sold for a lot of money.
Speaking of scissors, Liu Guangqi actually also had a pair of scissors, also from the Ming Dynasty. The scissors were brought out by Liu Guangqi from the tomb of Heisheli. The shape of the scissors was more like scissors for cutting cloth. The material was made of iron, but gold was embedded on it.
Liu Guangqi played with it for a while and then threw the scissors into the space. Although this thing is relatively rare, its value is not high. Who makes it a relatively unpopular collection? If it were replaced with porcelain, the value would be at least ten times higher.
After returning to the place where he lived, Liu Guangqi lay on the bed early. He was really tired after a long day of work. Originally, he said he would go into the space to eat something better, but he fell into confusion as soon as his head hit the pillow.
"Eight hundred gold bricks! Gold Rush Valley"
In the middle of the night, Liu Guangqi, who was sleeping soundly, suddenly opened his eyes and sat up on the bed. After being stunned for a moment, Liu Guangqi disappeared on the bed.
As soon as he entered the space, Liu Guangqi went straight to the old man's room. Quickly shuffled through the old man's DVDs.
"Go away and don't bother me. If you bother me again, I will eat the bear's paws."
Seeing Liu Guangqi suddenly appear in the space, Xiong Da, who was sleeping on the carpet in the living room, twisted his big butt and took eight clumsy steps to Liu Guangqi. He suddenly threw Liu Guangqi on his back and used it His head the size of a basin rubbed against Liu Guangqi's body.
Liu Guangqi was not in the mood to finish with it at this time, so he pushed it aside.
"That's him, Du Yuan"
Looking at the familiar face on the cover, Liu Guangqi was sure at a glance that the person on it must be Tian You.
When Tian You talked about the eight hundred yuan gold brick, Liu Guangqi felt a little familiar. This feeling was the same as when he heard about Cixi's secret treasure, but Liu Guangqi reacted quickly at that time.
And because it was so long ago, Liu Guangqi really couldn't remember it. After all, eight years had passed since he traveled through time. If he hadn't dreamed about the words "Gold Rush Valley", Liu Guangqi might not have been able to remember it.
Liu Guangqi took the CD to his room and copied the contents of the CD to a USB flash drive. Then Liu Guangqi took the USB drive and walked towards the warehouse to the dormitory.
"Why did you come in at this hour? Didn't you say you would come in for dinner at night? We have been waiting for you for a long time and you didn't wait."
Liu Guangqi just walked to the bedroom door and met Yunzi who came out to use the toilet. The little girl yawned and said.
Looking at Yunzi and Liu Guangqi in front of him, he immediately thought of the more than two hundred miners who were killed by the Japs. A stream of evil fire surged directly from his dantian to his forehead, and his expression became ferocious.
"What are you doing? Why are you looking at me like that? It's so scary."
Yunzi was frightened when he saw Liu Guangqi's ferocious expression, and took two steps back timidly. However, her performance stimulated Liu Guangqi even more. In order to avenge the two hundred miners, Liu Guangqi picked up Yunzi and walked towards the dormitory.
"Ah, what's wrong with you?"
After throwing Yunzi on the bed, Liu Guangqi pounced on him.
Driven by hatred, Liu Guangqi was particularly ferocious this time. By the time everything was over, Yunzi was already scarred, with Liu Guangqi's tooth marks and slap marks all over his body, and bloodshot eyes oozing out of some places. The pajamas on his body had turned into rags, and he was hiding in the corner like a poor kitten, with tears silently dripping from the corners of his eyes.
"sorry"
Liu Guangqi, who had regained his senses, looked at Yunzi in front of him and held the little girl in his arms with some distress.
The moment Liu Guangqi touched Yunzi, Yunzi trembled unconsciously. Feeling that Liu Guangqi had regained his senses, he snuggled into Liu Guangqi's arms with confidence.
