The medicinal herbs in the silver basket on the long table are tumbling with hot steam, fragrant and strong. On the beautifully decorated silver lamp on the side, there is a set of long needles that shine with reflection, burning red in the candlelight.
A pair of weak and boneless hands took off the hanging long needle and placed it on the cloth bag she had laid out early in the morning. After leaving the long needle of the candlelight, the temperature gradually cooled down.
"It's time for us to go." Gu Jianghe turned around and said to Nan Liyu when he heard the footsteps entering the door.
Behind the screen, the pale young master lay asleep among the thick cotton wool. No one could see under the quilt, and his legs were wrapped in thick bandages.
When the news from Shuiyunjian came back, Nan Liyu knew that the time for Miss Gu to part with them was coming. Ten days ago, after Gu Jianghe returned to Yunzhong City with Ranchen, he began to prepare to treat his leg injury.
Broken bones and recasting are unheard of.
Even if Su Chengyan, the most famous doctor in Yunzhong City, lived to such an age, he had never seen this recipe.
When Gu Jianghe explained this method, everyone was silent.
"Miss Gu, is this really the only way?" Su Chengyan practiced medicine in Jianghu for decades. Later, he met the old city lord Qiu and was entrusted by him to go to Yunzhong City to take care of Ranchen. It can be said that apart from himself, Su Chengyan is the person in the world who understands his physical condition best.
"I found this recipe from the ancient books of Yaowang Valley. To be honest, I have never tried it and I am not very sure. Therefore, it is up to you to decide whether you want to take this risk."
Gu Jianghe knew their concerns and told the truth. She was very grateful that Ranchen had found information about her brother for her, so she treated him sincerely. But even though she tried her best and thought for a long time, she still couldn't find a better or safer way.
Facing a room full of silent people, Ranchen spoke first and said, "I trust Miss Gu's medical skills, but I will leave it up to her to arrange this matter."
"Sir." Su Chengyan's white beard trembled a little.
Ranchen just waved his hand. Shui Yunjian found out about Gu Jianghe's brother. He knew that she was determined to leave. Perhaps out of gratitude to him, Gu Jianghe insisted on treating his leg injury before leaving.
In fact, he also had selfish motives. His legs had been unable to walk for so many years, but this doctor from the Medicine King Valley brought him a glimmer of hope. This glimmer of hope he didn't want to miss.
"In that case, let's start tomorrow."
The wind blew from above Yunzhong City.
Three whole hours.
Everyone was outside the door and never left.
The setting sun dyed half of the sky in the west red.
squeak--
The door was pushed open.
Su Chengyan opened the door and walked out.
"Doctor Su." Nan Liyu immediately greeted him.
Su Chengyan's wrinkled eyes shone brightly, as if he had seen something extraordinary.
"This is really an eye-opener for me. I have never seen such a magical hand. Miss Gu really deserves the name of the medical fairy of the Valley of the Living Dead."
"Doctor Su, do you mean that the young master is fine?"
"Although I'm not sure, it seems that the recasting of the broken bones is very successful so far. If you take proper care of him and recover well, there should be no problem for the young master to stand up again."
After that, Ranchen fell asleep for three whole days.
Every day, Gu Jianghe performed acupuncture and blood on him to ensure that his qi and blood flowed smoothly.
On the third day, when Gu Jianghe finished acupuncture for Ranchen and carefully observed his leg injury, she knew that the broken bone method had been successful.
Putting the quenched silver needle back into the needle bag, he said to Nan Liyu who pushed in the door.
"We should go."
"Is Miss Gu so anxious? Are you leaving before the young master wakes up?"
For three whole days, Ranchen still didn't wake up, and everyone was still worried, not to mention that Gu Jianghe was about to leave at this time.
"Rebuilding the broken bones will consume almost all the patient's efforts, so I sealed his meridians so that he would not wake up for three days, so that he could have a good rest."
Gu Jianghe packed up the needle bag in his hand and put out the fire under the silver basket at the same time. After the candle flame went out, the white mist that slowly rose above the silver hanging rod also began to slowly fade away.
"I just checked his wound, and it's no longer serious. You just need to change his dressing on time according to the prescription I gave him, and take the medicine regularly. After half a month, he should be able to try to get up."
Slowly pour the decoction in the silver pot into the white porcelain bowl next to it. The pure white bowl was immediately filled with brown liquid, and the originally cold bowl became a little hot.
Gu Jianghe picked up the porcelain bowl and handed it to Nan Liyu.
"For me, what I can do has been completed. What will happen next depends on his own destiny."
After Nan Liyu took the porcelain bowl from Gu Jianghe, he held it in his hand, but slightly bent towards Gu Jianghe and said: "In that case, I will not keep the girl. No matter what, I would like to thank the girl for the rescue." Young Master. I will order Li Luo to prepare a horse for the girl."
It was really time to go on the road, and she didn't know whether she was happy or worried at this time.
Originally, when she left Medicine King Valley, she only wanted to visit Yunzhong City, but what happened was far beyond her expectation. Southern Xinjiang, such a distant place, she decided to go this time, whether it was right or wrong.
When they learned that Gu Jianghe was determined to go to southern Xinjiang alone, Jiuxia and Qingyang became angry with Gu Jianghe for the first time.
"What are you talking about? I promised Master Miu Wugu to take good care of you. What's wrong with you asking us to just go back to the valley like this?" Jiuxia said angrily.
Qingyang also echoed: "That is to say, without me and Jiuxia, you can't go more than two miles south of the Yangtze River, let alone Southern Xinjiang."
"Hahahahaha," Gu Jianghe laughed because Qingyang made him laugh, "Okay, okay, let's go together."
Perhaps he knew that a companion would accompany him up, so when the three of them stood on the official road outside Yunzhong City, Gu Jianghe was in a particularly good mood.
Nan Liyu hugged Gu Jianghe and said, "It's a long way to go to Southern Xinjiang. I have prepared some good things for the girl to use on the road. The girl must accept them."
Behind them, Nan Liluo was driving a carriage, holding a fine sweat horse in his hand, and came towards them.
"I asked for some good medicinal materials from Dr. Su and put them in the carriage. I hope the girl can use them."
"Thank you, Qingyang."
Qingyang emerged from behind Gu Jianghe, stepped in front of Nan Liluo, and wanted to grab the reins from his hand.
"Miss Qingyang."
Nan Liluo tightened his hands and suddenly shouted.
"What are you doing, scaring me?"
Nan Liluo took out a dagger made of black gold from his arms. The hilt was carved from golden nanmu. Passed it to Qingyang.
"This is for you."
"Why are you giving me this?"
"This Xiyang is made of black gold and can cut iron as well as mud. Although your whip is powerful, it is not suitable for short-distance combat. You are going to southern Xinjiang on this trip and I don't know what you will encounter on the way. Keep it for self-defense."
Qingyang wanted to refuse, but after listening to Nan Liluo's words, he felt that it was very reasonable. If there was danger, her whip would indeed restrict a lot of places in close combat. After thinking about it, he accepted it.
Here I saw Jiuxia and Gu Jianghe saying goodbye to Nan Liyu and getting on the carriage.
Qingyang jumped onto the carriage and put the dagger on his waist. The patterns on the dagger shone in the sun. Looking around, the weather today was so good.
Glancing at the two men with somewhat similar faces standing next to her, some strange emotion suddenly surged into her heart, and she shook her head violently.
"Hey." She shouted to the person who gave her the dagger.
Nan Liluo was slightly startled.
"Thank you for the dagger. If I have the chance to meet again, I will definitely treat you to a drink."
She waved her hand, smiled at him, raised the horse's rein in her hand, and shouted: "Drive."
The horse galloped in her hands, raising a cloud of dust.
After a while, the shadow of the carriage disappeared within the horizon.
"Do you like me?"
Looking at Nan Liluo who was in a daze, Nan Liyu teased with a smirk.
"Brother, what are you talking about!" Nan Liluo, whose ears turned red at Nan Liyu's words, was a little angry and reached out to hit his brother on the shoulder.
"I think your injury is almost healed. You struck with such force." Nan Liyu rubbed the place where Nan Liluo hit him and said with a grin, "You gave someone such a precious dagger like Xiyang, how could you still give it to someone else?" Tough talk."
**
While some people were riding their horses all the way to the southwest, some people were coming all the way towards Yunzhong City.
After sending Xiao Changmeng to the imperial mausoleum, Wen Jirou once again set foot on the road to Yunzhong City.
His thoughts still lingered on the last conversation with Xiao Changmeng at the imperial mausoleum.
"Do you know what it means to go to southern Xinjiang to collect red blood mushroom?"
Xiao Changmeng, dressed in plain clothes, stood under the dim light of the imperial mausoleum, looking like a lonely ghost with nowhere to turn.
"No matter what it means, if your Majesty wants something, as a minister, you should do your best to achieve it."
Wen Jirou looked at Xiao Changmeng with a smile.
Xiao Changmeng looked at the white-haired man in front of him.
The dim imperial mausoleum made his pale pink eyes more and more obvious in this dark night.
"Why does Xiao Yanjing want Red Blood Zhi so much?"
"Your Majesty's little prince is born with deficiencies and is frail and sick. The royal doctor in the palace concluded that the little prince may not survive this winter. Not long ago, your majesty met an alchemist by chance. To save the little prince, he needed the legendary red blood mushroom. Red Blood Mushroom, according to legend, is in the hands of the eldest princess."
Wen Jirou's answer surprised her.
"It's actually for a prince, the ruthless Emperor Yongchu. It's really unexpected."
"Of course ordinary people like us cannot fathom His Majesty's thoughts."
Looking at Wen Jirou who kept smiling at her, Xiao Changmeng suddenly laughed.
"I finally know why Xiao Yanjing was able to ascend the throne. In addition to his ruthlessness, there is also you, Wen Jirou, what kind of person are you?"
"I'm just an ordinary person."
"That's all, I am defeated by you, and I have nothing to say."
Xiao Changmeng turned around, with a sneer on his lips: "Master Wen, I wish you a smooth journey to southern Xinjiang."
Southern Xinjiang Mingyue teaches Scarlet Blood Zhi. In those years, she sent countless people there, but no one came back alive.
