Three and a half women in four courtyards

Chapter 43

As for the Four Emperors, I felt like I was wandering all the time, walking non-stop, not knowing where to go.

As he walked, he came to a memorial arch and thought, "This arch is like the arch of Miaocha Saihan Temple."

Thinking in this way, he walked through the archway, and suddenly saw bright lights in front of him, it was a splendid scene that he had never seen before.

But in a blink of an eye, it became dark and strange again, and those lights were all glowing white.

Under the illumination of the white light, a gate can be seen from the Four Emperors, and there is a door god on the door.

He took a closer look and felt that something was wrong. The door god was drawn like an illustration in a medicine book. It was a group of soldiers walking forward in a line. The person in the front was carrying a flag with a picture of a red sesame seed cake on it. .

From the perspective of the Four Emperors, what kind of people are these people?It's not Qin Shubao or Yuchi Gong either.

When he took a closer look, the faces of these soldiers actually looked like gangsters.

He is a little scalped, whose house is this, why do you treat Xie Gang as the door god, those eyes, those fangs, it's creepy to look at.

He suddenly had an idea, wanted to take off the portrait of the door god, and talk to the people here about what a door god is.

As soon as the hand touched the door, the door god portrait fell down by itself, revealing another door god.

This door god is also a group of people, wearing various clothes.

Some are like farmers, some are like blacksmiths, and some are like soldiers.

Those soldiers had red flowers with five petals on their hats and red cloth strips on their collars.

Taking a closer look at the faces of these people from the Four Emperors, they are all kind-hearted people.

He thought, such a door god can be regarded as passable.

With that in mind, he pushed open the door and entered the courtyard.

On the 13th day, Bao Yixian couldn't take it anymore, and cried while wiping Cong Sihuang's body.

She suddenly felt a sharp pain in her lower stomach, and she yelled to Mrs. Hou and Zhang, "Oh, oh, oh, my stomach hurts, is it about to give birth?"

Hou Zhang quickly ran over, helped her onto the kang, and said, "Ang, you lie here first and don't move. I'll go to the old piss woman (midwife). I'll be back right away, don't move." She said and ran out.

Bao Yixian lay on his back for a while, and felt that his stomach pain was gone, and he regained his composure.

"Mom, I'm hungry and want to eat." Cong Suhua got up from the kang and wanted to get down to the ground.

"An, don't move, I'll go cook for you." Bao Yixian got up from the kang, looked into Cong Suhua's eyes, "It doesn't hurt, does it feel better?"

"Oh, it doesn't hurt anymore." Cong Suhua nodded and said, "Yes, everything is blurry."

Bao Yixian went out to fetch firewood from the pile of firewood, planning to light a fire for cooking.

She hugged some wood chopping boards, and when she turned around, she suddenly felt severe pain in her abdomen.

She subconsciously squatted down and couldn't get up again.

After a while, she felt the urge to urinate, and she couldn't control it, so she wet her pants pocket.

At this time, Mrs. Hou Zhang brought the old diaper back from the outside. When she went into the house, she saw that she was gone, so she asked Cong Suhua, "Where is your mother?"

"An, let's cook." Cong Suhua replied.

Hou Zhang and the old diaper came to the kitchen and didn't see Bao Yixian, so they called out, "Ang, sister-in-law, sister-in-law, where have you been?"

Bao Yixian heard them calling her, but couldn't speak.

When Hou Zhang came outside, she saw Bao Yixian sitting under the pile of firewood from a distance, and ran over to see the blood flowing from Bao Yixian's trouser leg. Knowing that she had given birth, she shouted, "Om! Hurry up, hurry up!" , born! born!"

The old diaper also ran over, quickly helped untie her belt, and helped deliver the baby under the pile of firewood.

The old piss woman said while she was busy: "Oh, it's quite fun, it's a girl. Go find a pair of scissors!"

"Oh, okay, okay, I'll go find the scissors!" Hou Zhang said.

Entering the courtyard from the Four Emperors, there is a large hall in front of you.

When he came to the main hall, he saw that it was very empty.

In the center of the hall is a table with four corners and eight immortals, and a book is placed on the table.

At first glance, I thought it was a copy of "Compendium of Materia Medica", but upon closer inspection, the character "本" became a character "人".

From the thought of the Four Emperors, I know there is a "Compendium of Materia Medica", what kind of medical book is this "Compendium of Materia Medica"?
Since the Four Emperors liked medical books very much, they opened them and read them.

The first page is a blank sheet of paper. Turn over the blank sheet of paper and see that it says:

"Body pain can still be cured, but heart disease has no effect.

The sick die forever, and one person blindly takes medicine. "

He thought about the meaning of these words, but he didn't quite understand the deep meaning inside, so he continued to look at the next page.

But he couldn't understand the text on the following pages.

Some are half Chinese characters, some are a radical, some are winding, like Mongolian or Manchu, and some are foreign codes.

What makes Cong Sihuang feel strange is that this book has illustrations, but the illustrations seem to have been ripped off and gone somewhere.

He thought, if he can't read the text, he can just look at the illustrations.

When he looked up, he found that those illustrations were pasted on the walls around the main hall, like New Year pictures.

From the Four Emperors, I walked and looked at the illustrations on the walls.

These illustrations include animals, plants, and people.

He suddenly saw a very strange illustration, which showed a person warming himself by a fire, but looking at the fire, there were no flames, just some stones.

Take a closer look at that person's face, why is it so familiar?He suddenly remembered, isn't this Diao Gui from Diao's compound?
Continue to see other illustrations from the Four Emperors.

One illustration shows a level field on which some flowering plants grow.

What kind of grain is this, he thought?There are many fruits on it.

Upon closer inspection, each fruit has a human face, with a sallow complexion, dull eyes, and some with weird smiles.

He took two steps forward to look at the next illustration.

This picture shows a scorpion being wrapped around its neck by a faceless man with a noose.

The two front paws of that Xiai struggled to grab the rope.

Looking closer from the Four Emperors, Xie Gang's face actually looked a bit like Xie Gang's howling Gong Yaozhong, especially the tuft of hair, which was very similar.

One illustration showed a group of monkeys.

Two big monkeys, a male and a female, are eating together with a girl, and the female monkey is holding a little monkey in her arms.

Except for the little monkey in his arms, the two big monkeys and the girl were all yellow and thin, with a bony appearance.

The little monkey in his arms seemed to be vomiting uncomfortably, vomiting a lot of black water.

Looking at this picture from the Four Emperors is a bit kind. Looking at it, I feel that the two big monkeys look like Hou Mingli and Hou Zhangshi, and he doesn't know the girl.

Walking and watching, the Four Emperors felt that they were not in a room, but in a long corridor with various illustrations on both sides.

Some illustrations depict a birch tree, some illustrations depict a pier of flower straw, and some illustrations depict flakes of millet and sorghum.

There are not only various plants, but also various animals, such as cats, dogs, donkeys, horses, cows, chickens, etc., which dazzled him.
