This Zhu Banxian'er is not a charlatan, but a true medical master.
The name is Zhu Danxi, and she is an old acquaintance of Yan Chixia.
His medical skills were superb, and his clinical treatment was as effective as a drumstick. There were many cases where he was cured immediately after taking the medicine without the need for further consultation. Therefore, people at the time also praised him as "Zhu Banxian"!
Doctors with excellent medical skills naturally know far more about various causes of death than ordinary people. Yan Chixia met Zhu Danxi when she was running a business, and the two had many interactions.
Yan Chixia admired his medical skills, and Zhu Danxi also admired the upright and awe-inspiring Yan Chixia very much, and the two became good friends.
Later, Zhu Danxi took his son eastward, and after Yan Chixia resigned from her official position, she also had no fixed residence and wandered around the world...
But Yan Chixia didn't expect why this half-fairy girl ended up here? !
Reunion with old friends is naturally one of life's great joys.
Zhu Danxi immediately took Yan Chixia to his home to talk.
The two of them drank three rounds of wine and tasted five kinds of food.
Only then did Yan Chixia learn that Zhu Danxi's only son Zhu Peng had joined the Taiping Army and became a captain of thousands.
"Congratulations. I see that the Taiping Army has strict military discipline. At such a young age, your son is already a commander of thousands. He will definitely have a bright future in the future!"
In the face of her old friend, Yan Chixia naturally did not hesitate to praise her, and he did feel so.
Zhu Danxi was happy in her heart, but sighed deliberately on her face:
"Brother Yan, as you know, my son has been fond of wielding knives and sticks since he was a child. He can't read the medical books at home. I expect this kid to pass on my medical skills...!"
"Now that he has joined the army and is busy with military affairs, it seems that all my skills will be put in the coffin~!"
He was talking casually, but as he spoke, Zhu Danxi really felt depressed.
These people have different ambitions and talents, and Yan Chixia doesn't know how to persuade them.
Take him as an example, he himself can pass the examination as a scholar, but he doesn't like the so-called beautiful articles at all, and he can't read them. Instead, he prefers to read policy papers and the like.
Yan Chixia poured him a glass of wine: "Have you never thought about finding an apprentice?"
Zhu Danxi calmed down and said, "Just kidding."
"In those days, how could I accept a disciple? I thought Peng'er was still young and could practice boxing and kicking to protect himself. In the future, as long as he teaches well, he can always pass on my mantle."
"But who would have thought that this little brat could make himself fall asleep while reading a medical book, and yet he could dance with knives and guns, and not feel tired all day long? I was really pissed off at that time~!"
"At that time, I sighed all day long about the misfortune of my family..."
Yan Chixia asked curiously: "What happened next? Why did your son join the Taiping Army?"
Zhu Danxi said: "At that time, the Taiping Army recruited troops on a large scale for the first time. The training was obviously difficult, but as long as they were retained, they could get a monthly salary of ten taels of silver..."
"Twelve months' salary?!"
"Really or not? This Taiping Army is so wealthy?!"
Yan Chixia's eyes widened, interrupting Zhu Danxi's words.
What is the concept of twelve-month salary?
Yan Chixia has traveled around various places and has a general understanding of commodity prices. This is enough for an ordinary family of three to survive for a whole year. If they save a little, they can even live longer.
Zhu Danxi continued: "These twelve months' salary is pure profit. Unlike armies in other places, the Taiping Army does not require soldiers to bring their own food, clothing, and weapons. These are all provided by the army."
"Even the new soldiers can enjoy three meals a day and meat every meal; military uniforms are provided year-round, with two sets per season... now it seems to be three sets per season. If it is damaged, there will be someone to repair it. , if you really can’t sew it up, you have to pay for a new one yourself, but the price is only 20 yuan..."
Hearing the various treatments from Zhu Danxi's mouth, even Yan Chixia was moved, let alone those young and strong ones! ~
Just the mere presence of meat in every meal is enough to make many people’s eyes flutter.
However, after a rough calculation in my mind, this kind of expenditure is simply the elite who piled up money!
The food and clothing expenses of an ordinary soldier are worth the cost of hundreds or even thousands of people in other armies! ………
Just for the fine steel spear he saw before, if he sold it for five hundred taels, he would definitely have someone want it. However, in the Taiping Army, everyone has one, and even the tooth generals may have better ones... …
This kind of consumption of money and food is simply a bottomless pit. How do the people behind the Taiping Army sustain themselves? ?
For the first time, Yan Chixia knew what "haoqi" was!
Zhu Danxi continued: "With such a good thing, this brat and a few friends went there, but something happened before it even started."
At this point, Zhu Danxi suddenly stopped talking, and instead picked up his wine glass and started drinking with a leisurely attitude.
But Yan Chixia's curiosity was aroused.
This half-fairy is not a human being.
It was as if a kitten was scratching Yan Chixia's heart. He stood up suddenly, angrily, and refilled Zhu Danxi's empty wine glass.
"You half-fairy, you can say it now~!"
Zhu Danxi took a sip slowly and calmly.
Then he said: "For some reason, this glass of wine is particularly refreshing in the throat, hahaha..."
"Brother Yan, you said that by offering such good conditions, doesn't it mean that there is a lot of money? No, someone has other ideas."
"I have entangled hundreds of Green Forests, and I plan to rob him!"
Yan Chixia nodded, does this look like the world he knows~!
Charming eyes of silver! …
"Later, there will be no later."
"The Sword Lord just waved his hand, and the heads of those hundreds of people were immediately separated."
"By the time Peng'er and the others went to register, hundreds of heads had piled up into a mountain of flesh, which immediately shocked everyone."
Yan Chixia asked suspiciously: "Sword Lord?!"
"Is it the one from Jianhu Palace?"
"I've seen her before, she has a cold temperament, but I didn't expect her to be so murderous?!"
Zhu Danxi shouted: "Brother Yan, be careful."
Not feeling reassured, he stood up and looked around, then came back and sat down and said:
"You must not say these things outside. Otherwise, even if the Sword Master is generous, many supporters of the Sword Master will come to you and cause trouble. The Taiping Army will probably not make the decision for you after knowing the inside story."
Yan Chixia was puzzled: "The prestige of that sword master is so high?!"
Zhu Danxi showed a look of admiration on his face.
"Not only the Sword Lord, but also the three Lords Xuan Lord, Dao Lord, and Ming Lord. They have countless fans."
"Everyone's good life now is thanks to the four Lords and the Taiping Army led by them."
"They slayed demons, exorcised ghosts, and eradicated bandits. They also vigorously built the county, promoted people's livelihood, and developed education... Only then did we have the good life we have now!~~"
Yan Chixia found that the words coming out of this half-fairy's mouth were all coming out one after another, some of which he couldn't understand.
But one thing he knew clearly was that the Taiping Army appeared about nine years ago and was established by four strong men.
Xuan Zun Hong Kang, Dao Zun Zhang Sanfeng, Ming Zun Dongfang Bubai, Sword Zun Pang Qingyang.
The four men were able to reach the heavens and subdue demons and beasts. In order to bring peace to the world and benefit the people, they founded the Taiping Army, recruited young men and trained them to bring order to the world.
In nine years, the Taiping Army spread its power across six counties and expanded its army to 30,000 elite soldiers.
Yan Chixia was very surprised when she heard this, she was really puzzled.
"With this kind of strength, it took nine years to occupy six counties? It doesn't make sense that there are so few?!"
Zhu Danxi shook his head and said, "How can I know what other people think?"
"However, it's the same county town, so it's very different."
"Take Dongyang County as an example. It used to be a decayed place with a population of less than 40,000. However, after the Taiping Army moved in, they vigorously carried out construction."
"The surrounding area of the county has expanded hundreds of miles. In just over nine years, the population has now increased more than ten times. Some of them are new children, and even more are people who have fled with their families. In addition, the Taiping Army has also come forward to open The number of people dying from the disease is decreasing year by year."
Yan Chixia asked: "Banxian'er, why do you know so well?"
Zhu Danxi smiled proudly: "Ahem, cough, cough... I am not talented, but now I am the director of a public hospital..."
There is no hope for his son. Fortunately, there are many good medical talents in public hospitals. He plans to observe and test them for a few more years. If possible, he plans to pass on some of his medical skills.
As for passing them all to one person, he didn't think so.
Yan Chixia said: "Ban Xian'er, do you think this Taiping Army... has the intention to aspire for the top spot~?"
Zhu Danxi sat upright and said seriously: "Don't ask me, I don't know. I only know that today's life was something I couldn't even think about before."
"Now when you walk on the street, at least you don't have to worry about being hacked to death by random people, and then you say, bad luck, you hacked the wrong person."
Yan Chixia was silent.
………………
Zhu Peng got off duty and went home.
When I got home, I heard the boy say:
"Master, you are back!"
"My father isn't here, right?"
"The master is waiting for guests."
"We have a guest? Who is it?"
"I don't know him. He's a bearded man. I've never seen him before, but he seems to be in a good mood."
"Never seen it~?"
Zhu Peng thought for a while, put on his regular clothes and walked towards the living room.
"Dad, I'm back, this is...Uncle Yan?!"
"Uncle Yan, it's really you!~~"
Zhu Peng recognized the familiar beard and thick silkworm eyebrows at once. He took three steps at a time and two steps at a time, his joy overflowing from his expression.
Yan Chixia is almost his mentor in martial arts. You must know that he pestered Yan Chixia for a long time before he learned a lot of real things.
When he was a child, he preferred to stay with Yan Chixia.
This way you can practice martial arts without having to read those boring medical books.
Zhu Danxi felt a little disgusted when she saw her son like this, and snorted heavily, indicating that there was someone breathing here!
Unexpectedly, Zhu Peng didn't seem to hear anything. He just held Yan Chixia's hand hard and kept asking for greetings.
"Uncle Yan, why are you here?"
"When I knew you were coming, I went to get some good wine. I remember that you particularly like mellow wine. I happened to know that there is a wine shop in the north of the city..."
Zhu Danxi's eyes widened.
This unfilial son——
"Cough cough cough...!"
He coughed hard several times, and Zhu Peng finally turned his eyes.
Before Zhu Danxi could speak, Zhu Peng immediately turned around. With his current knowledge of martial arts, he could naturally see that there was nothing wrong with his father.
"Why did I give birth to such a son?!"
Yan Chixia and Zhu Peng also chatted happily.
One was talking about trivial matters in the world, and the other was talking about interesting things in the military. For a while, they complemented each other. Zhu Danxi was blowing his beard and staring, and the boss was unhappy.
The two of them were talking and somehow ended up talking about martial arts.
"Uncle Yan, let's have a fight!"
"Let you see my progress over the years."
Yan Chixia agreed.
He knew that Zhu Peng had become a commander of thousands, and his martial arts must have improved a lot, otherwise he would not be able to suppress the arrogant soldiers below. Moreover, he felt a faint pressure from Zhu Peng, which made him look askance. ..
Due to their martial arts skills, if they fought in the yard, the house would be demolished, so they found a wild place.
Zhu Danxi stopped going to see them. He believed that the two of them were sensible.
In order to show fairness, Yan Chixia and Zhu Peng used ordinary long swords.
"Uncle Yan, be careful."
Zhu Peng pressed his left hand on the scabbard, and with a "chi" sound, the long sword jumped out of the scabbard. Cold light flashed, the long sword rose up, and he reached out with his right hand to hold the hilt.
This hand is extremely pleasing to the eye, and as soon as the left hand presses the scabbard, the long sword can be forced out with the skill. The depth of the internal skill is really rare.
But Yan Chixia's face darkened: "It's all bells and whistles! Is this your progress over the years?!"
Zhu Peng na na.
After meeting his martial arts mentor, he couldn't help but show off his skills.
He condensed his mind, gathered his will, and his eyes suddenly became serious. The aura of a commander in chief of the Taiping Army began to gather, and an evil aura filled the air. This was his aura to move forward in a hundred battles.
"This is what it looks like~!"
Yan Chixia is also full of momentum and righteousness.
Zhu Peng was the first to make a move. The sword move Yan Chixia had seen from others before was called "Wanyue Chaozong".
Suddenly the sword light was released, and the long sword turned into a white rainbow and stabbed straight towards Yan Chixia.
This move is majestic and formidable, and is infinitely smarter than two people fighting each other on the street. In particular, Zhu Peng has been in battle for a long time, which makes it even more majestic and fierce.
"Keng~!"
The two swords struck each other, causing sparks to fly.
Yan Chixia's expression changed. The force coming from Gain's sword was extremely strong. It was strange. This kid wasn't born with supernatural power, was he? !
Since the two of them were not fighting to the death, but were more interested in exchanging ideas, in the ensuing sword fight, the two of them became more and more happy as they fought.
Zhu Peng's swordsmanship is strict and does not seek to be dangerous or gorgeous. Each sword carries a majestic momentum and overwhelms others with force. However, Yan Chixia is upright but not pedantic. His swordsmanship is both upright and strange, and his righteousness will last forever.
After another three hundred moves, both of them suddenly stopped.
Yan Chixia's sword was pressed against Zhu Peng's armpit, and his own throat was pressed against the sword.
The two sheathed their swords.
"Hahaha... The younger generation is to be feared, the younger generation is to be feared~!"
"Then what Xiahou Jian does all day long as the "best sword in the world" is really ridiculous..."
"Peng'er, tell Uncle Yan the truth, your swordsmanship is really not the best in your army??"
Zhu Peng said in surprise: "First?!"
"I can't even get into the top thirty."
Yan Chixia's beard trembled: "What?!
"
………………
Hundreds of Green Forest strongmen attacked the military camp at night and destroyed them all. He is a thief, but his courage is commendable. The military generals gathered their heads together to save their brothers from the feeling of dying together. This is humane and benevolent.
