Li Tengkong said: "A senior medical doctor sent a message to Mr. Zhenyin, inviting him to come to Yiwulu Mountain to meet you. You also know that Mr. has limited legs and feet, so you asked me to make the trip for you."
Dugu Xiang complained: "Mr. Zhenyin, it's true that even if you come to the Northland alone, he won't send ten or eight great people to protect you."
Li Tengkong said: "You are wrong to blame this, sir. Two senior brothers, Wei Jingzhao and Wei Qumu, also came with more than a dozen disciples, but they were all resting in the library. Qingyao and I went out to buy some medicinal materials from the north. , resting here is what caused this trouble." Looking at the couch next to the two of them, there was indeed a big baggage, which must be the medicinal materials they just bought.
Jiang Shuo was about to ask again, but Li Tengkong said: "Shuo'er, I want to ask you, didn't you go to Beihai to pay homage to Ambassador Li? Why did you come to Beidi?"
Jiang Shuo said: "It's a long story..." He and Li Tengkong parted ways in the south of the Yangtze River. However, the first night they crossed the river and arrived in Yangzhou, earth-shaking changes took place. After that, the plan kept changing, as if they were not going anywhere. Relying on his own will, he was coerced by various events and pushed forward, and suddenly he was here today. I couldn't finish talking about all these things in one day and one night, so I had to say: "Zangkongzi, too many things have happened in the past few months. This is not the place to talk. I will tell you in detail about the past one day." ." It's just that Dugu Wen was hit by Gao Buji's poisonous palm, and he came here after hearing that there was a doctor here who had a cure.
When Li Tengkong heard that Dugu Wen was poisoned, he stood up and knelt beside the old man, checked his pulse, and carefully examined his nose, lips, and eyes. Then he returned to sit far away and said, "This poison is really weird. It seems that It is a mixture of poison from Liaodong viper plus poisonous strains and poisonous weeds from the Western Regions, and it is indeed the Kongtong Qimen poison."
Duguxiang asked: "Tengkongzi, since you know the origin of this poison, can you cure grandpa?"
Li Tengkong thought for a long time and said to Dugu Xiang: "My training in Tengkong is still shallow. I don't know how to prepare the poison, so it is difficult to prescribe the right medicine. It seems that only senior Yue people can cure this poison in this world."
When Yun Gu heard what she said, she couldn't help but get a little excited, and said with a trembling voice: "The Qin Yue people are really in Yiwu Lu Mountain?"
Li Tengkong looked at Yun Gu strangely and said, "So you don't know? Mother-in-law, it was Senior Yue Ren who called us to attend this conference."
Dugu Xiang asked: "Are the Qinyue people famous?"
Li Tengkong said: "Qin Yue's name is not well-known in the world, but his disciples are very famous. Niu Tianqi, the number one imperial doctor in the current ban, is his disciple."
Yun Gu said to herself: "I didn't expect that he would go back to the master's old path."
Li Tengkong smiled and said: "Mother-in-law, you misunderstood. The Qinyue people did not work as imperial doctors. He has always been a wandering Taoist priest. He never opened a medical clinic or accepted money from anyone. In the spring and summer of the third year of Shenlong, , there was a severe epidemic in more than 20 prefectures and counties in Guannei, Henan, and Hebei provinces, and tens of millions of people died of the epidemic. At that time, the Qinyue people happened to be in the capital, and he traveled all the way eastward to help local doctors treat them, and saved Many people. When I was practicing medicine in Hebei Province, there was a young man whose whole family died of an epidemic. After the Qinyue people rescued him, they saw that his life experience was pitiful and that he was intelligent, so they treated him as their disciple. Keeping him by his side, this child became Niu Tianqi, the great doctor in the forbidden country."
Dugu asked: "I have also heard of Niu Tianqi's name. I only knew that he became a palace doctor at a young age. I didn't expect that he was a disciple of the Qinyue people."
Li Tengkong said: "Yes, his name was given by the Qinyue people, hoping that he would live a long life and live as long as the sky. He has been around since he was a child, oh, that is, at the age when Shuoer followed Mr. Taibai. I followed my master to travel around, learning skills while practicing medicine. Thirteen years later, in the eighth year of Kaiyuan, a great epidemic occurred in the pass. Even in the imperial ban, many palace residents were infected with the epidemic. The Qinyue people brought Niu Tianqi back When they arrived in Gyeonggi, the Qin and Yue people presented "Guangji Prescription" to the saint and tried the medicine in the palace. All the sick palace residents were cured. The saint was overjoyed and issued an edict to brew the decoction according to the prescription. This stopped the plague, but the Qin and Yue people did not He likes fame and fortune, but his whereabouts are erratic. The world only knows that the saint gave medicine but does not know that the prescription comes from the Yue people. Over time, it is rumored that the Guangji prescription was created by the current saint. "
Dugu asked: "I have also heard about this Guangji prescription. I thought that today's saints are still very knowledgeable about medicine, but it turns out that there is someone else who donated the medicine."
Li Tengkong nodded and said, "But the saint follows the instructions.
Providing medicine to the people is also a matter of immeasurable merit. As for the prescription, I don't think senior Yue Ren cares about it. "She was originally a Taoist girl from a prime minister's sect, and she devoted herself to cultivating Taoism. Although she was past her thirties, she was still simple-minded and had absolutely no utilitarian heart like most people in the world.
Dugu Xiang asked: "Then how could his disciple Niu Tianqi become an imperial doctor?"
Li Tengkong said: "The medical skills of the Qinyue people are so miraculous, so the saint naturally wanted to comfort him and hope that he would stay in the prison as an imperial doctor. However, the Qinyue people said that they were already used to the life of trekking in the mountains and forests, and they did not want to stay in one place and face the imperial family. The doctor refused, but said, my little apprentice has followed me for many years and has learned all the wonders of my medicine. Moreover, he has wisdom and no immortal bones, and has accomplished nothing in his cultivation. It is better to keep him in the prison and become a royal guard. Please treat him. So he left Niu Tianqi in Shang Yao Bureau for treatment."
Dugu Xiang stuck out his tongue and said: "Master just said a word, and the apprentice became an imperial doctor..."
Li Tengkong smiled and said: "How can it be so easy for an imperial doctor to do this? Niu Tianqi entered the Shang Yao Bureau, and he was just a medical assistant below the ninth rank. He was still several ranks behind the imperial doctor who diagnosed the emperor's illness. But Niu Tianqi's medical skills are really amazing. In just a few years, he was promoted from assistant doctor to chief physician, attendant physician, to senior doctor, and finally to Fengyu, who is in charge of Zhangshang Pharmacy."
Jiang Shuo said: "From the perspective of a disciple, the medical skills of the Qinyue people must be very good. It seems that there is great hope for grandpa to detoxify." Dugu Xiang nodded repeatedly after hearing this.
Dugu Wen smiled and said, "Just follow fate in everything you do..." Although he was open-minded and optimistic by nature, he was naturally happy to hear that the poison he had suffered could be cured, and his tone became much more relaxed. He asked: " Why did the people of Qin and Yue come to Yiwulu Mountain in Beizhen to take advantage of this? What will this conference say? "
Li Tengkong slowly shook his head and said, "I don't know about this anymore. Senior Yue Ren didn't say what it was in his letter."
Dugu Xiang said: "This is strange. He didn't even say anything, but just with a greeting invitation, he asked you to travel thousands of miles to come here?"
Li Tengkong smiled and said, "Isn't that right? But he not only invited the Maoshan sect, but also the world-famous doctors."
Dugu Xiang said, "It would be embarrassing if everyone who received the invitation didn't come."
Dugu asked: "Xiao Nizi is still so naughty, and she is talking serious words when she is free." Dugu Xiang stopped talking nonsense.
Li Tengkong smiled and said to Dugu Xiang: "It doesn't matter, I dare say that whoever received the post, regardless of the sect, will definitely come, because Qinyue people are like gods among doctors, and the martial arts world has Mount Tai and Beidou." , naturally there are leaders among doctors. Although the Qin and Yue people have been wandering around for decades, in the minds of the doctors of the Tang Dynasty, he is like the leader of the rivers and lakes and the supreme king of martial arts. How could these people not come when the leader gives an order? "
Speaking of this, Ye Qingyao glanced at Jiang Shuo and said with a mocking tone: "I don't know about Senior Yue Ren, but some people's orders may not be effective."
Dugu Xiang said angrily: "Brother Shuo is the publicly recommended leader of the Jianghu Alliance and the leader of the Cao Gang. How can he not say anything?"
Ye Qingyao was about to retort, but Li Tengkong stopped her and said to Jiang Shuo: "My master and apprentice are about to set off to climb the mountain. If you don't mind, you can go up the mountain with us. I'll listen to what Senior Yue will say." Talk and everything will become clear."
Jiang Shuo turned around and saw Dugu Wen nodding his head and said, "Okay! Teng Kongzi has been thoughtful. Should we leave now? Do we have to wait for our two master uncles, Wei Jingzhao and Wei Qumu?"
Li Tengkong said: "According to the previous agreement, the two uncles and their disciples from Maoshan should have already gone up the mountain. We have made an appointment to meet at the Beizhen Temple in the mountain."
Yun Gu said: "Where is that little girl?"
Jiang Shuo said, "Grandma Yun, don't worry about her. Sister Zhu'er must be nearby. But if she doesn't want to be seen by you, you can't find her even if you dig three feet into the ground. But if she wants to find you, she can hide her." I can't escape her even to the end of the world."
Yun Gu snorted. She originally wanted to refute this, but when she thought about Jiang Shuo's kung fu being much better than hers, and considering his skill, she had no reason to object.
At this time, the sound of footsteps on the stairs was heard. A waiter led a group of people up the stairs. The leader was the one who was manipulated by Yun Gu. He shouted: "The food is served!"
Yun Gu said: "
We're leaving now! "She was thinking about the Qin Yue people. Now that she has news about him, how can she still think about eating. Everyone had the same thought and stood up together.
The waiter was about to serve the food, but suddenly he saw all the guests at each table, no matter how tall or short they were, standing up suddenly. Not knowing what they were going to do, he couldn't help but take two steps back in fright, and almost fell down the stairs. He muttered: "This... ...This...the store has just prepared food, what do you heroes want to do when you get up?"
Yun Gu said: "We have to leave. This meal was prepared too slowly. You can keep it for yourself."
The waiter was shocked and said, "This meal costs a lot of money, and we, the shopkeepers, can't afford it." He immediately knelt down and kowtowed, with tears and runny nose streaming down his face, and cried, "Hero...woman... ...Forgive me, I can’t afford the loss if I don’t settle the bill.”
Yun Gu said, "Old lady, I don't have any money." After saying that, she went downstairs by herself. Da Wuyi hurriedly followed A Niang downstairs. Both of them had martial arts, and their movements were so fast. In a blink of an eye, they Went through the guys and went downstairs.
Jiang Shuo and Dugu Xiang were embarrassed to break in, so they stood up and helped Dugu Wen up, preparing to jump from the window.
After Li Tengkong stood up, he said to the shop assistant: "Brother, you won't be short on food money." After saying that, Ye Qingyao ordered Ye Qingyao to take out a piece of red gauze and give it to the shop assistant, who broke down in tears. He laughed, but then he became troubled and said: "Then what do these pestles do here? Please ask some heroes to collect their magical powers."
Jiang Shuo said: "It doesn't matter, they will be able to move freely in another hour."
The waiter couldn't help but curl his lips. The people in the city didn't have a good impression of the Yiluohe warriors. With so many Yiluohe candles stuck on the ground on the second floor, no one dared to come up to drink and dine. But he finally held back and didn't say anything.
Li Zhuer asked Jiang Shuo and Xiang'er to carry Dugu Wen downstairs carefully. She and Ye Qingyao followed behind and went downstairs. Then she asked the shop assistant to pick up Jiang Shuo and Dugu Xiang's horses, and then picked up her own and Ye Qingyao's horses. The black and white guards gave them some more rewards, and then they rode their horses toward the west gate with everyone else.
