Ji Beichen has a gentle and simple temperament. He usually doesn't fight or grab, and he doesn't like to cause trouble to others. Bai Shi likes this loyal young man very much.
He had already heard Shopkeeper Zhao mention what Xue San wanted. Speaking of the grievances between the Zhao family and the young master, he had to start with the turmoil in the Demon Sect twelve years ago.
When mentioning the past, Bai Shi couldn't help but sigh in his heart: It was a mortal who suffered when gods fought. He wanders around Cangzhou City every year, and is more or less related to the grievances between the two families...
Bai Shi didn't want to get stuck in the memories, his face darkened, he returned to normal, touched the white beard on his chin, and replied to Ji Beichen: "Now, that young master is seriously ill, and ordinary medicine is really useless!"
"But, Senior Shi is not an ordinary person!" Ji Beichen didn't know why he wanted to save the young master so much, but since he saw Xue San's handwriting, he couldn't sleep or eat well because he didn't want anything to happen to the young master.
Bai Shi raised his eyebrows, feeling that this matter was very difficult, but he didn't want to disappoint Ji Beichen: "This... you are right, there is indeed a method you can try!"
"In this case, Senior Lao Shi will come with me!" Ji Beichen stood up excitedly when he heard that Senior Bai Shi could save this person.
"This... do you know why I have avoided medical treatment for so many years?" Bai Shi did not expect Ji Beichen's reaction to be so big. He only said that he had a kind heart, and Xue San was very demanding.
Ji Beichen vaguely guessed that the Zhao family probably had deep grudges with the young master, and it was not that he didn't care about them. I just always feel that the young master is a good person, and there must be something inside, but human life is at stake, and the young master’s time is running out, so let’s save his life first.
Seeing that Bai Shi was still wary, Ji Beichen spoke up: "Senior Shi knows that I am not a presumptuous person. I have calculated that person's birth date. That young master is not a treacherous and evil person! He has been kicked many times in his life. He suffered many injuries when he was young. The bad guys framed me, and most of my relatives have died..."
At this point, Bai Shi couldn't help but sigh heavily. Ji Beichen saw this and quickly continued: "Senior Shi! Saving a life is better than building the Qiqi Pagoda. Please come with me!"
After Ji Beichen said these words righteously, he clasped his hands and bowed deeply to Bai Shi, as if he would not stand up if he refused.
Bai Shi sighed. He could predict most of the things in the world, and he also knew that the man was about to die. It's just that things are unpredictable. It seems that the matter has not yet been determined. The variable is Ji Beichen.
He was shocked and calculated the fate between Ji Beichen and the young master, but he found it unclear. Could it be that the feud between the Zhao family and the Mu family has turned around today?
Bai Shi put away his calculation hand and looked at Ji Beichen, who was standing in front of him and bowing stubbornly. He raised his hand and patted his back: "I am an idle medicine cultivator and rarely interfere in mortal matters. Chen Since my son is destined to be with that young master, I will go on this trip with you, and the rest will depend on that person’s fate!”
Bai Shi couldn't defeat Ji Beichen in the end, so he went back to the east wing to pack the medicine box, and then followed Ji Beichen out of the back door of the medicine shop to the backyard.
The two of them followed the address left by Xue San and arrived at a magnificent mansion. Ji Beichen looked up and saw five characters written on the plaque on the door of the mansion - Cangzhou City Lord's Mansion.
Ji Beichen thought to himself, could that young master be the lord of Cangzhou City?
Before Ji Beichen could knock on the door, the door of the mansion opened with a creak. Xue San walked out of it with his head lowered. There were still tears in the corners of his eyes, and he was wiping them with his sleeves. It was obvious that he had just cried.
When he looked up, he saw Ji Beichen and Divine Doctor Shi at the door, and a smile immediately appeared on his face: "Master Dao, you really invited Divine Doctor Shi here!"
As he said this, he was about to give a big salute to the two of them. Ji Beichen quickly stepped forward to stop him. Xue San swallowed his words of thanks and said sadly: "I beg Doctor Shi to go and see my young master quickly. I'm afraid he will." No more!"
When Bai Shi heard this, he hurriedly stepped forward. Ji Beichen hurriedly said to Xue San: "Hurry up and enter the house."
Xue San nodded in response. At this moment, he didn't care about anything else. He ran all the way into the mansion, called the housekeeper to greet the nobles, and then ran to the inner courtyard.
Just now, his young master vomited a large pool of blood and passed out immediately. He rushed out of the house to find Ji Beichen, but he didn't know whether the young master could hold on...
The housekeeper in the mansion did not dare to neglect the two nobles, and the path they took was the great road. Ji Beichen was extremely anxious.
"Senior Shi, I'm sorry!" Ji Beichen grabbed Bai Shi's wrist and rushed to the inner courtyard. He led Bai Shi skillfully along the path to the backyard, passed through the flower arch, crossed the hand-drawn corridor, and finally slowed down and walked in. The inner court.
The housekeeper who followed the two men was dumbfounded. Has this little Taoist priest arrived at his home? How could he be so familiar with the layout of the City Lord's Mansion?
Bai Shi was pulled by Ji Beichen and ran away in a hurry. He was also surprised in his heart. He originally thought that Ji Beichen was not an ordinary person, but now he was even more confused.
It's obvious that Ji Beichen has been to the City Lord's Mansion and is very familiar with it. Who is he?
Bai Shi has been searching for a secret realm in the mortal world for many years. He has not been involved in the world of cultivation for many years, so he does not know Ji Beichen.
The only bond between him and the world of cultivation is the Soul-Living Valley, and he has not returned to the Soul-Living Valley for a long time. Maybe it is time to go back to the valley to meet the old guy...
——
In a secluded wing in the inner courtyard of the city lord's palace, a handsome-looking man was lying on a large sandalwood bed. The man looked to be in his thirties, his face was pale, and he was taking in more air than out. An old woman sat next to the man, wiping her tears.
Xue San opened the door and came in. He wiped the tears on his face and put on a happy smile. He pushed the old woman who was sitting by the bed wiping her tears: "Mom, please stop crying. Doctor Shi is here. The young master is saved!"
"San'er, do you have this ability?" Just when Xue's mother was dubious, she stood up and saw the housekeeper leading an old and a young noble into the house. She immediately felt hopeful and bowed and saluted: "Miracle Doctor Shi, please help me quickly. Brother Mu!"
The young master on the bed is Mu Qing, the lord of Cangzhou City. This mother Xue is Mu Qing's nanny. Mu Qing was critically ill just now, so she quickly asked her son Xue San to call the doctor.
When Baishi looked at the person on the bed, he secretly screamed, so he quickly took out a pill from the medicine box and fed it to him. Then, he asked everyone to retreat, leaving only the doctor in the mansion to help. The two of them took off Mu Qing's clothes and began to acupuncture her.
About two hours later, Shiraishi walked out of the room. Xue's mother and Xue San, who had been waiting at the door, immediately greeted them.
The doctor in the mansion immediately said that Mu Qing was fine for the time being. Everyone breathed a sigh of relief and bowed to Dr. Shi. Bai Shi in the room didn't say much, he just opened his mouth to let Ji Beichen in.
Ji Beichen's heart immediately tightened. He suppressed his restless mood and pushed the door into the wing. Looking at Mu Qing who was as white as paper on the bed, his heart "thumped" unconsciously.
"How...is he?" Ji Beichen is a person who rarely sheds tears. Today, for some reason, when he looked at Mu Qing's face, the corners of his eyes became moist.
Baishi was silent for a while, shook his head and said: "The condition is more serious than I thought, and he has been poisoned recently. The spread of the poison is only temporarily suppressed, and I am not completely sure..."
"Poisoned?" When Ji Beichen heard that Mu Qing had been poisoned, he suddenly remembered that Xue San had said that Mu Qing's condition suddenly worsened this year. That's it!
Ji Beichen frowned, his lips turned white, and he said excitedly: "Senior Shi, just tell me what you need me to do!"
Seeing Ji Beichen's anxious look, Bai Shi knew that he would save Mu Qing no matter what, so he replied: "I'm going back today to make preparations. Tomorrow I will use acupuncture to force out the poison first, and you will protect me on the side. I will still handle this matter." You need to inform Shopkeeper Zhao, he is not a person who refuses to save anything, and he will definitely not stand idly by."
Ji Beichen nodded heavily and wrote down the things one by one. Baishi carefully diagnosed Mu Qing's pulse again, and after studying for a long time, he started writing a prescription.
Ji Beichen didn't know much about medicinal properties, but seeing how carefully Bai Shi used the medicine, he imagined that Mu Qing's condition was very dangerous.
After Baishi checked his pulse, he returned to Xuanji Medicine Store, leaving Ji Beichen to look after Mu Qing. Xue San brought Ji Beichen to the front hall, and Ji Beichen explained the treatment method in detail.
Xue San was frightened when he heard this, and his face was full of worry, but when he thought of Dr. Shi's superb medical skills, he immediately felt relieved and thanked Ji Beichen again.
"Thank you, Taoist Priest. Xue San repays your great kindness like an ox and a horse!" Xue San knew that Ji Beichen was a kind-hearted person and really cared about his young master. He couldn't help but be filled with gratitude and knelt down on his knees. Kowtowed.
Ji Beichen hurriedly helped him up. There was gold under the man's knees. He was kneeling to the sky and kneeling to his parents. How could he be so virtuous that he could kneel down with such responsibility?
Furthermore, Mu Qing was only temporarily fine, and was not completely out of danger yet. It would depend on senior Ashitishi's treatment, so he comforted him and said, "Brother Xue, you are so polite. Your young master is not out of danger yet. Thank you." I also want to thank Senior Shi, I didn’t do anything.”
Xue San knew very well that the Zhao family had been grudged against their own young master for a long time, so he only said: "The Taoist priest doesn't know about the grudges between the Zhao family and my young master. I invite this stone miracle doctor every year when he comes to Cangzhou City, but every time he is blocked by Old Man Zhao. If the Taoist priest hadn't taken action, my young master would have really..."
Ji Beichen felt that Xue San was still worried that Shopkeeper Zhao would block tomorrow's treatment, and hurriedly comforted him: "I don't know the reason, but Shopkeeper Zhao is a kind person, and he will definitely not ignore death."
Xue San shook his head. Ji Beichen didn't know the grudges between the two families, so he spoke so readily. It wouldn't be possible if he knew. In fact, he didn't know much, but the rumors in Cangzhou City were no longer a secret - Mu Qing's position as city lord was a bit "weird"!
The Mu family has been the hereditary lord of Cangzhou City since their ancestors. However, twelve years ago, more than 30 members of the Mu family were brutally wiped out. Mu Qing was the only "survivor" left in the Mu family. Afterwards, he became the hereditary lord of Cangzhou City. Bit.
The Zhao family is the mother's family of the city lord's wife. After the tragedy happened, the Zhao family asked Mu Qing for an explanation many times, but Mu Qing always stayed behind closed doors. Over time, the Zhao family felt that Mu Qing was guilty of being a thief, so they began to hate Mu Qing.
Unexpectedly, before the two of them finished speaking, they heard someone shouting loudly outside the mansion door: "Mu Qing, if you're not dead, come out! You're actually trying to trick Doctor Shi to treat you. I don't think you should look at it either." , what you have is black heart disease! The disease of wolf heart and dog lung disease! There is no cure!"
The man became more and more vicious as he cursed, and his filthy words were unbearable. Sitting in the front hall, Ji Beichen couldn't listen anymore and wanted to go out to see who was yelling and cursing on the street outside.
Seeing Ji Beichen getting up, Xue San quickly reached out to stop him, obviously knowing this person.
Xue San's eyes were full of anger and he clenched his fists, but he held back and did not dare to vent. He could only say helplessly: "The person who is scolding outside the house is the eldest son of the Zhao family. He is the general guarding the city of Cangzhou City and is in charge of the city guards. He is already With his cultivation in the late stage of foundation building, you can’t beat him!”
Ji Beichen knew that Xue San was worried about him getting hurt, so he comforted him: "Just relax, I'll be right back."
