"gentlemen!"
Xiaobei raised her head and exclaimed in surprise. She saw a kind-looking gray-haired old man holding a candied haws in his hand and looking at her kindly.
"You're hungry, come on, let's eat some candied haws to satisfy your stomach."
After hearing Mr. Zhu's words, Xiaobei, who was grumbling with hunger, didn't care why Mr. Zhu appeared here. She quickly took the candied haws in Mr. Zhu's hand and started eating it. It was a big hawthorn in one bite.
Seeing Xiaobei devouring her food, Mr. Zhu sat next to Xiaobei, smiled softly, stroked her back and persuaded:
"Don't be in a hurry, eat slowly."
"Yeah, yeah, yeah!" Beckham, who was devouring her food, nodded repeatedly to show that she understood, but her speed did not slow down at all.
In just a few bites, Xiaobei devoured the whole bunch of candied haws.
After eating the candied haws, Xiaobei was still unsatisfied. She licked the bamboo stick vigorously and refused to give up until all the syrup on the stick was licked clean.
Seeing Xiaobei looking up at him, Mr. Zhu asked kindly:
"How's it going? Are you full?"
Beckham shook his head.
"No, sir, do you still have it?"
Upon hearing this, Mr. Zhu chuckled and said:
"Yes, but it's not good to eat candied haws to fill your stomach. Your stomach won't be able to bear it. Come, follow me back to the academy. It's just time for dinner."
Mr. Zhu chuckled and pulled Xiaobei to stand up.
Xiaobei hesitated for a moment as she stood up, but she still chose to ask.
"Sir, why don't you ask me why I asked for leave and why are you still wandering around here?"
"Is this important?" Mr. Zhu turned back and glanced at Xiaobei with a chuckle, and asked in confusion.
Then he slowly walked forward.
As Xiaobei looked at Mr. Zhu's back, an inexplicable emotion surged out at this moment, and she finally chose to follow him.
. . .
In White Horse Academy, all the students in the dining hall have finished lunch at this time. They are moving freely in the courtyard to digest the food they just ate. They will take a lunch break in a while.
They gathered together in groups, some were swinging, some were walking, and some were chatting with each other.
The content of this chat is also very simple. The first is why Xiaobei and Qiu Xiaodong did not come to school today; the second is why Mr. Zhu went out before finishing the meal when the meal was just started; the third is the most popular murder case in the town recently. .
"I heard from my father that not only Qiu Xiaodong's house, but also a murder occurred on West Street just this morning."
"Ah, really?"
"Really, there are a lot of corpses. I passed by there in the morning when I went to school, but my dad didn't let me see it."
Several children were chatting when suddenly a child pointed at the door and shouted: "Hey, look, Xiaobei is here."
Hearing this, all the children quickly turned their heads and looked around, only to see Mr. Zhu walking through the door holding Xiaobei's hand.
"Really! It's Xiaobei!"
Seeing Xiaobei coming, the children quickly gathered around.
"Hello, sir." The children first saluted Mr. Zhu.
Mr. Zhu waved his hand gently. "Everyone, please get up."
The students quickly stood up, and then they looked at Xiaobei and asked all kinds of questions:
"Xiao Bei, are you here to go to school?"
"Xiao Bei, what happened to you this morning? Are you sick or..."
"..."
. . .
Most students asked Xiaobei with concern.
"I...everyone..."
Xiaobei didn't expect that so many classmates in the academy were thinking of her. Seeing these classmates who cared about her so much, Xiaobei felt warm in her heart. She didn't know how to explain this moment. .
At this moment, Mr. Zhu came to her rescue.
Mr. Zhu said loudly:
"Students, please be quiet for a moment. Xiaobei-san and I haven't had lunch yet. If you want to play with Xiaobei-san, please wait until we have lunch."
After hearing Mr. Zhu's words, all the students quickly moved out of the way.
In the canteen, after hearing Mr. Zhu's words, the canteen aunt in charge of cooking also went to prepare another lunch.
. . . . . .
"Please stay outside, Mr. Qiu."
At the gate of Qiu Mansion, Xiao Liu looked at Mr. Qiu who was escorting him out personally, and said goodbye with clasped fists.
"In this case, Qiu will not send more gifts. Deputy Yan, take care of yourself."
Member Qiu also clasped his fists and bowed. Although he didn't know what his uncle talked about with Xiao Liu, his uncle seemed to be very satisfied with Xiao Liu.
Xiao Liu nodded, then turned and left Qiu Mansion.
Officer Qiu watched Xiao Liu leave and took people back home.
Xiao Liu turned around and looked at the door plaque of Qiu Mansion with a smile. He touched the porcelain vase in his arms and couldn't help but shook his head. He had to sigh that he was really lucky to meet so many senior experts.
But Xiaoliu immediately frowned, because almost all the seniors were attracted to him because of his weird body.
And what happened to his body? Was it really caused by being struck by lightning?
. . .
Qiu Mansion, back garden, pavilion.
Xiao Liu and Doctor Qiu sat opposite each other in the pavilion. Mr. Zhu checked Xiao Liu’s pulse and asked:
"Deputy Chief Yan was born with all kinds of meridians?"
Xiao Liu shook his head.
"No, it was just after being struck by lightning that it became like this."
Doctor Qiu frowned slightly when he heard this.
"Oh, struck by lightning?"
"Yes!" Xiao Liu said bluntly. He was sure that the original Xiao Liu was not like this.
Because he once inquired about his master in a roundabout way, he found that Xiao Liu was not that different from ordinary people. He was not as powerful as him, nor had his ability to recover energy and spirit so quickly, nor did he have such a photographic memory. The ability to forget.
Doctor Qiu frowned and said:
"I have seen many people in medical books who survived being struck by lightning, but none of them had a phenomenon like yours.
As for people with all meridians, I have been fortunate enough to diagnose two of them. Although they used internal energy to open up the meridians throughout their body, they did not have as strong energy and spirit as you. Your situation is really very rare. "
Doctor Qiu sighed and let go of Xiao Liu's arm.
"Senior, is there any problem with this? Isn't it because of the connection between the hundreds of meridians that I said that the energy and spirit are strong?"
Xiao Liu asked curiously. He had always thought that all the things about him that were different from ordinary people were due to his full access to meridians.
Doctor Qiu shook his head.
"I can't judge, there is no precedent for this matter. In this way, after the old man's hospital is set up in a few days, Deputy Capt. Yan can come again. Then, how about I give Deputy Capt. Yan a careful diagnosis?"
Doctor Qiu suggested that he could not give Xiao Liu the results in a hurry. He had to go back and look through some medical texts to see if he could find some precedents similar to Xiao Liu's situation. He also had to think about Xiao Liu's situation. What happened to this situation?
However, Xiao Liu said apologetically:
"I'm sorry, senior. I'm going to leave Qixia Town for a few days. I'm afraid I won't be able to be there to congratulate my senior."
"Oh, where do you want to go?" Doctor Qiu asked curiously.
"Luoyang!"
