Judge of the Lamp

Chapter 116 Two Prescriptions
At noon the next day, Xu Zhiqiong woke up and walked out of the small house in a distorted state, feeling that his whole body was out of harmony.

There were two qi mechanisms running wildly in his body, Xu Zhiqiong wanted to release them, but he didn't know how to use them.

It took more than half an hour to practice just walking, and at least the walking was smooth. Xu Zhiqiong went to Changji Pharmacy, which is the pharmacy opened by Judge Duan Shiyun.

As soon as he entered, Duan Shiyun hurriedly led Xu Zhiqiong to the backyard: "Brother Ma, have you thought about it?"

Xu Zhiqiong didn't answer, but asked instead: "What happened to that servant yesterday?"

Duan Shiyun sighed softly: "The servant was seriously injured, and the old man has no way to recover."

"died?"

"Sin, it's all the work of that bastard Wu Ziqing!" While speaking, Duan Shiyun gritted his teeth.

Xu Zhiqiong comforted him and said, "Senior Duan, calm down. I inquired about Wu Ziqing last night. He seems to have a daughter."

Duan Shiyun nodded and said: "He has three daughters, one is married, and there are two more at home. I wonder which one Brother Ma is asking about?"

"There seems to be a seven or eight-year-old boy."

"You're talking about Miaoying," Duan Shiyun nodded, "That girl is cute, and I really like her, but I haven't seen her in the past few days. Why did Brother Ma ask her?"

Xu Zhiqiong said: "It's okay, I just asked about the situation, so that after Wu Ziqing's death, no one will take care of his family. I heard that his mother is sick again?"

Duan Shiyun sneered: "It's just a cold syndrome. I took some medicine here two days ago, and I can recover after taking a few doses."

Xu Zhiqiong exclaimed: "Senior Duan is really a miracle doctor!"

Duan Shiyun waved his hands again and again and said, "Brother Ma is too famous, I just know a little about medical skills, brother, have you made up your mind to kill this thief?"

Xu Zhiqiong nodded and said, "It's decided, but I haven't figured out a plan yet."

Duan Shiyun said: "Don't worry, don't worry, I endured this villain for three full years, brother, can't you bear it for a while? Let's have a long-term plan."

After chatting for a while, Xu Zhiqiong got up to say goodbye, walked to the counter of the pharmacy, and quietly scraped off a few pieces of wood on the counter.

After leaving the pharmacy, Xu Zhiqiong found a restaurant near the Wu Mansion, ordered some food and drink, and sat quietly.

No one followed him today, but Xu Zhiqiong didn't dare to be careless. It's hard to say what kind of ruthless people the Sixth Princess will find to deal with him.

After sitting in the restaurant for more than an hour, Xu Zhiqiong saw a servant coming out of Wu's mansion, carrying a vegetable basket to the market to buy vegetables.

Xu Zhiqiong followed the servant all the way, Wu Ziqing was really frugal, the servant bought a basket of vegetables, and there was no trace of meat.

On the way back, when he reached a secluded place, Xu Zhiqiong stepped forward to block the servant's way.

"Brother, stay here."

"Who are you?" The servant raised his head and saw Xu Zhiqiong's attire, and hurriedly saluted, "I've seen Master Deng."

Xu Zhiqiong smiled: "Wai Li, I have a few words to ask you, are you from Wu Yushi's residence?"

The servant said yes again and again.

Xu Zhiqiong asked again: "Your Miss Miaoying, where have you been these two days?"

"This, this, the villain really doesn't know."

Xu Zhiqiong took out a sling of money and stuffed it into the servant's hand: "Think about it carefully?"

The servant waved his hands again and again and said: "This villain dare not accept it, our master has a lot of rules, if he finds out about it, he can't beat me to death?"

Xu Zhiqiong buckled the switch, and the short knife in front of the lantern came out, with the blade facing the servant's forehead.

"You think about it again?"

The servant turned pale, took Xu Zhiqiong's money, and said in a low voice, "Miss Miaoying is on a hunger strike, so she put herself in the woodshed and no one will see her."

"Hunger strike? How old is Miss Miaoying?"

"It's eight years old this year."

How can an eight-year-old go on a hunger strike?How could he starve himself to death?

People don't want to be skinny, they are invincible!
Wu Ziqing wanted to starve her daughter to death, but she lied, saying that she went on a hunger strike,

"Why is she on a hunger strike?"

"Our young lady is a sensible child. A few days ago, our old lady fell ill and took a lot of medicines, but she didn't get better. Later, she asked for a prescription from an expert, and said that people in the family died for it. life, in order to save our old lady,
After our lady found out, she stopped eating that day and said that she would use her life for the life of the old lady! "

Xu Zhiqiong squeezed the lantern pole, and slowly let go. After a moment of silence, he asked again: "Which expert wrote the prescription?"

"This villain really doesn't know."

"Okay," Xu Zhiqiong didn't bother the servant any more, "you can go."

At dusk, Xu Zhiqiong returned to the yamen and gave Qu Jinshan a bottle of wine: "Qu Dengshou, I am studying medicine recently, and I want to ask you for advice on something."

"You study medicine?" Qu Jinshan smiled, "That's a good thing, but I don't know much about medicine."

"The light guard is too humble. I'm just a layman. I just ask the light guard to give me some pointers. I want to ask the light guard, can human flesh be used as medicine?"

Qu Jinshan's face changed when he heard the words, and he said sharply: "Why do you ask this? Who taught you these crooked ways?"

Xu Zhiqiong said: "Deng Shou appeases his anger, this junior also thinks it's crooked. I saw it in some medical books, so I wanted to ask about it."

Qu Jinshan sighed and said: "This kind of medical books, written by most quack doctors, are not credible, and some of them involve magic. You'd better not know about them."

"Can these sorcery really cure diseases?"

Qu Jinshan frowned and said: "Forget it, let me tell you, according to the principle of yin and yang, people's life and death have their own destiny.
If you have a cultivation base, you can last for a few years, but if you don't have a cultivation base, you can use this evil technique to extend your life span for a few years. This method can only be used once, which is really a crime. Suffer atonement! "

It turns out that there is such a prescription.

Xu Zhiqiong asked again: "If a relative is starved to death, can you extend your life for a few more years?"

Qu Jinshan said angrily: "Zhiqiong, where did you learn this? This is a life-extending magic trick! People who use this magic trick will never be reborn in the underworld!"

This method of life extension is also true.

Xu Zhiqiong got up to leave, Qu Jinshan looked solemn: "Zhiqiong, go back and burn that evil book. If you dare to learn those methods, don't blame Qu for turning his face and being ruthless. Studying medical skills is to save the world and save people. Can't do it!"

Xu Zhiqiong said again and again: "Deng Shou, don't worry, I will punish such people who hurt the nature and reason when I see them!"

It seems to charge an extra head.

Looks like there is more than one!
……

At night, Xu Zhiqiong went to Zhukulou Tea House, and met the shopkeeper Zhu, the eighth-rank judge, and Lu Yanyou.

"Brother Lu, I came to visit today because I want to ask you about someone."

Lu Yanyou smiled and said, "Is it from our Taoist sect?"

Xu Zhiqiong nodded: "Master Duan Shiyun, what do you think of this person?"

Lu Yanyou's smile suddenly froze and gradually disappeared.

"Why did you ask him?"

Xu Zhiqiong said with a smile; "Recently, I want to do business with him."

"Brother, are you short of merit?"

"My little brother has just been promoted, and I haven't accumulated a few meritorious deeds yet."

"The place in Beiyuan is not good enough. If you lack meritorious service, brother, let me introduce you to a few people. How about the price? Three seven, four or six are easy to negotiate, and five or five are also negotiable."

"But Judge Duan said..."

Lu Yanyou interrupted Xu Zhiqiong: "No matter what he says to you, you should take it as a fart. He is a greedy person, and you won't get any credit for the business on his territory."

"But he said that his meritorious service is full, and he will be promoted to the seventh rank. All the meritorious service of this trip belongs to me."

Lu Yanyou smiled and said: "brother, why don't you believe me when I tell you good things? I can only take his words as fart. He has just been promoted to the eighth rank, but he is still far away from the seventh rank. How could he give you meritorious deeds?" ?”

Xu Zhiqiong said: "Brother Lu, if I remember correctly, you also did business with him by the Wang'an River back then."

"Yes, I did," Lu Yanyou nodded, "I was blind at the time, brother, remember what your brother said, we can't be blind again."

……

Late at night, Xu Zhiqiong booked a room in the inn, called Niu Yuxian, and asked him to fill the room with traps.

If the Sixth Princess sends someone to attack again, Xu Zhiqiong will be able to run back in a dozen or so breaths. It's just delaying time anyway. It's better to use a mechanism to delay the time.

Xu Zhiqiong pretended to fall asleep, Niu Yuxian watched secretly, and a mouse ran into Wu Ziqing's mansion again.

Xu Zhiqiong went to the backyard first, and wanted to see the little girl, but saw that the old lady's light was still on, and there were bursts of coughing in the room.

"Qing'er, I'm dying. Why isn't that girl dead? Why is her life so hard? She just wants to beat me to death!"

"Mom, I went to have a look today, and I won't last for a few days."

"Nonsense, I think she is still alive! You go and take some medicine, let her die sooner!"

"Mother, it's clearly written in the prescription, she must die from a hunger strike."

"I can't stand her anymore. I have worked so hard to bring you up. You are not filial!"

"Mother, don't embarrass the child anymore. The child also has to take care of his reputation. The child is busy today and sleepy. You should rest earlier."

"You are not filial! You are not filial!"

Xu Zhiqiong could see clearly from the corner that the old lady's crimes were more than four inches away.

Xu Zhiqiong went to the kitchen, took a bowl of water, and brought it to the little girl.

Today the girl is no longer afraid of mice. She has been thirsty all day, so she picked up the water bowl and drank it in one gulp.

Xu Zhiqiong brought her steamed buns again, and watched the little girl gobble them up.

Eat it, eat it big.

Squeak!Squeak!
Xu Zhiqiong wanted to speak, but he couldn't speak, he could only squeak twice.

The little girl looked at Xu Zhiqiong, with big black eyes staring at small black eyes.

Squeak, squeak!
The mouse kept rubbing his face with his paws, trying to make the little girl smile.

You have to live, live well!

……

Xu Zhiqiong returned to the inn, and all was well that night.

The next day, Xu Zhiqiong opened another room for Niu Yuxian to have a good rest, so he took the opportunity to visit the small black room.

After coming out of the small black room, Xu Zhiqiong spread his hands.

The wood chips that were originally clutched in his hands were crushed into pieces and scattered all over the floor.

Xu Zhiqiong washed his face, and smiled at the bronze mirror.

Very sincere smile.

With this smile, Xu Zhiqiong went to Changji Pharmacy.

Duan Shiyun took Xu Zhiqiong to the backyard and asked, "Brother, have you thought of an idea?"

Xu Zhiqiong nodded: "I've made up my mind, it's just that you need to work harder on this matter!"

"What are you talking about? It's a matter on my head, shouldn't it be right to contribute!"

"This matter, let's do it this way. You write me a prescription first, and I will write a prescription for you. These two prescriptions are enough."

Xu Zhiqiong told Duan Shiyun his idea, and Duan Shiyun pondered for a long time and said, "Is this possible?"

"It's definitely not possible to rely on you alone. With me here, this thing can definitely be done!"

Duan Shiyun smacked his lips and said, "Are you in a hurry, why don't you delay for two days?"

Slow down?You want to wait for that little girl to die, don't you?

"We can't wait any longer. Our yamen is also in a hurry. This matter must be dealt with quickly, the sooner the better!"

"It's not difficult," Duan Shiyun nodded, "I'll just prescribe the medicine!"
