- Just a few days after Xu Qing, mother and daughter escaped from prison and hurriedly fled Haishan County, a spiritual consciousness was born from the center of the county and swept across a hundred miles, as if searching for something.
After a while, the spiritual consciousness covered it again, and it happened again and again before it really left.
"Damn it!"
A roar roared across the sky and earth. This time everyone heard it, and many people thought it was a thunderbolt from the clear sky. After all, to mortals, the monk who flew into the sky and escaped from the earth is just a myth and legend. Since this planet was abandoned tens of thousands of years ago, the spiritual energy has ceased to exist, and even the first-class vitality is extremely thin. No monks can be born, and even if there is inheritance, it is useless.
And tens of thousands of years are long enough for mortals to forget everything.
?¡
In the courtyard of the small village on the side of the prefecture's office, the obese Prefect Wang was accompanying him with an embarrassed look on his face. Divine Doctor Li was quite unhappy and seemed to be filled with thunderous fury. Not only was the air in the hall dull, but the weather outside was also a bit gloomy.
I don¡¯t know if it was an illusion, but Wang Taishou looked at Divine Doctor Li and felt a little frightened. When I first met His Majesty, I didn¡¯t seem to feel this way either.
After a pause, Divine Doctor Li softened his expression and said, "It's time for me to leave. Please help yourself, Grand Master."
When Prefect Wang heard this, he became anxious: "Why is the miracle doctor leaving in such a hurry? If it's because of those criminals, I will issue a wanted warrant right now. I think my colleagues will be a bit mean-spirited, and they won't be able to escape far -"
Dr. Li gave up impatiently and walked towards the back hall without looking back: "No, I've made up my mind."
Seeing that it was impossible to retain him, Prefect Wang hurriedly said: "Then, the miracle doctor will wait a moment, and I will prepare a carriage and horses for the miracle doctor."
There was no response from Divine Doctor Li, so Wang Taishou hurried out and summoned a servant.
"Go to the house immediately and ask your wife to prepare a bag for Divine Doctor Li. It must be generous. In addition, prepare three smart servants with families to be Divine Doctor Li's servants. Go and do it immediately!"
"Yes, sir!"
The servant was puzzled as to why Dr. Li was suddenly in a hurry to leave but ran out instead.
In about one stick of incense time, the gifts were ready and stopped outside the gate of the manor. There were three carriages, two loaded with supplies, one simple and heavy boxcar, and equipped with three burly servants and coachmen.
Governor Wang, his wife, and several concubines were also there. The weather was relatively hot, and the cicadas on the trees kept screaming, and everyone kept wiping their sweat. Mrs. Wang kept complaining that Dr. Li was so arrogant. A maid next to her fanned her hard, but Mrs. Wang still felt tortured.
After another quarter of an hour, Prefect Wang couldn't bear it anymore and his head felt dizzy. A male servant cleverly took out some umbrellas and held them up, which made things better.
"Everyone stay calm and wait, I'll go help the miracle doctor clean up¡ª¡ª"
While wiping away the sweat, he moved into the manor and went straight to the residence of 'Shen Doctor Li', which was a courtyard within a courtyard. Hearing footsteps, someone ran out. Wearing a servant's attire, he was the servant who had been serving 'Miracle Doctor Li', but now he was crying: "Master, master, it's not good, it's not good -"
Governor Wang¡¯s heart skipped a beat and he yelled, ¡°What¡¯s wrong with the miracle doctor? Tell me quickly!¡±
"Miracle doctor, miraculous doctor, miraculous doctor, that old man has left!" The servant knelt down with a thud, waiting tremblingly as if he was dejected.
"What, you left? When did you leave? How is that possible? You damn thing, why didn't you stop me? Tell me?" Wang Taishou was immediately furious and stepped forward to kick him a few times, but to no avail.
The servant didn't dare to dodge, endured the pain, and his head almost dropped to the ground, and said: "The little one planned to help the miracle doctor pack his bags, but the miracle doctor refused to let him go, and asked him to go out and wait until he realized something was wrong. When he entered the house just now, he discovered that The miracle doctor is gone, his luggage is gone, nothing is left¡ª"
Prefect Wang was unwilling to give in and roared a little irritably for a while.
"Get out, get out, someone is coming, someone is coming, go to the city gate quickly. If you see the miracle doctor, have someone stop you. Wait until I arrive. Remember to be polite!"
He tried his best to make arrangements, give away money and things, and even promised glory and official position, just to retain this miracle doctor with amazing medical skills. It was best to stay in Haishan County forever. After experiencing a serious illness, Wang Taishou realized the value of having a good body.
Now it¡¯s all going to be in vain.
No one dared to disobey Governor Wang¡¯s orders. The detectives went out to search privately, and horses roamed the streets. However, after half a day, the men and horses were tired, but the city guarding sergeant swore that he did not see Doctor Li at all, nor did he see him leaving the city. The living people just disappeared.
"What the hell is Fatty Wang doing?"
"Nonsense!"
"The illness of the surnamed Wang is cured"??¡±
"¡ª¡ª"
Such a huge battle and the chaos naturally alarmed many forces in the county and city. They couldn't figure out what kind of madness Governor Wang was going to have, so they sent people to inquire. In the end, it was clear that it was just a farce, but it also made some other people unhappy. Could a mere doctor be so guilty of mobilizing the public and using public equipment for private use?
Faced with the accusations from everyone, Wang Taishou, who had regained his rationality, had to lower his status and hold a banquet to apologize. The farce disappeared.
?¡
To the people of Haishan County, the little things of Governor Wang are all big things, but those big things are too far away from them. What the common people need is to have enough food and clothing, their families to be healthy and safe, less labor and taxes, and to live a good life. They don't care much about the rest.
However, for Li Hongchen, experiencing a miracle doctor in the eyes of ordinary people is just an experience. For hundreds of years, he has been wandering around the mortal world, playing various roles, including blacksmith, doctor, farmer, soldier, human trafficker, gang member, butcher, turtle man, etc. This is all a kind of spiritual practice. People and things in Haishan County are naturally just passers-by.
His true identity is still a monk, and he is a person in two different worlds from mortals. He is superior.
At this moment, he was already on the official road dozens of miles outside the city. There was a strong man with black charcoal skin and a height of more than two meters and three meters beside him. He was carrying a large luggage half a man tall and they were walking on foot.
"This planet is really a hellish place. There is not even a trace of spiritual energy left, and you can't even see the most basic vitality!" The black charcoal man complained. "If I stay here any longer, my blood will dry up. Master, look at me, I've lost a lot of weight!"
The strong black man said pitifully, gesticulating his body as thick and hard as iron, listlessly.
Li Hongchen ignored his cuteness, frowned, looked at the wilderness with insufficient vegetation on the left and right, and said, "You are wrong. According to records, this planet may not have been like this tens of thousands of years ago -"
"That's just a legend, not to mention there are so many planets in the void, it may not be this one. Master, we have spent hundreds of years here and haven't found any clues. Why don't we change places?" The black charcoal brawny man said that he wanted to stay here. Lack of interest.
There is no spiritual energy and spiritual stones to replenish, and the vitality is pitiful. It can even save on flying. If it is consumed in vain, it must be replenished. Little things add up, even if his master is extraordinary and has a lot of resources, he doesn't want to waste them.
The consumption of hundreds of years is quite a lot.
The most irritating thing is that if you buy a carriage, the horses will be scared to death when they see him, let alone travel for him.
Therefore, most of the time, the two of them had to walk on foot.
The strong black man was chattering away, as if he hadn¡¯t spoken to him in years. Li Hongchen occasionally replied and then hurried on his way.
After walking for about a hundred miles, it was getting dark, and we encountered a few carriages moving slowly on the official road ahead, with lanterns hanging in front of the carriages guiding the way forward. This is a small private fleet.
Li Hongchen let out a breath and breathed a sigh of relief: "Xiao Hei¡ª¡ª"
The strong black man's expression changed and he said angrily. "I hate this damn place!"
Although he was reluctant, he still unloaded his luggage, and he turned into a ray of light and entered a purple-patterned bag in Li Hongchen's hand. It was a high-end spiritual pet bag, tied around his waist and hidden under his clothes. .
Li Hongchen angrily packed up his luggage and caught up with the convoy in a moment, pretending to be out of breath.
The people in front finally saw him and were wary of his approach, their swords almost unsheathed. At this time, Li Hongchen put on a smile, raised his hands and said in greeting: "Please, everyone, I am out of town, can you make it easier for me to go with you?"
?¡
Outside Haishan County, one side of the official road is dozens of miles deep, and there is still the same forest and the everlasting hilltop.
The sea has changed, and in the blink of an eye it has been several cold and summer days.
One day in the early spring of this year, a short old man with a gray beard and a sallow complexion and a skinny boy in his teens came here. The two wore linen clothes, patches all over their bodies, and straw sandals. They carried large and small bamboo baskets on their backs, and each held a mountain knife with a wooden handle and a trekking pole.
At first glance, he looks like a herb collector from a poor family.
"Grandpa, look at that hillside, there seems to be medicinal materials!" The young man has a good eye. The surrounding vegetation is just a hint of green. On the sunny slope of the hill, there are few and low trees, but some grasses are actually blooming. It's so bright that it eclipses the surroundings.
Green, white, red, pink, yellow, all vying for beauty. Some looked very familiar, they were clearly medicinal flowers.
The old man¡¯s eyesight was not good, but he had a lot of experience. He quickly stopped his grandson who was about to run over and reminded him: ¡°Gou boy, there are many insects and beasts in the mountains. The more unusual the place, the more unusual the place.¡±??Be careful! "
"Yes, Grandpa." Gouwa immediately became obedient, but he didn't seem very convinced.
¡°Let¡¯s go and take a look with grandpa, be careful¡ª¡ª¡±
The grandfather and grandson slapped the grass with their trekking poles, and finally successfully climbed the hillside.
"Huiyang grass, no less than ten years old!" The old man carefully identified a green plant, and soon became excited, his beard trembling.
He is not a doctor, he is just a herb collector and knows some medicinal materials. But obviously, it is rare to see such a whole slope of medicinal materials concentrated in large quantities and growing extremely well.
When the young man heard this, he scratched the back of his head and smiled stupidly: "Grandpa, are we getting rich? How much can we sell for so many medicinal materials?"
Snapped!
The old man slapped his grandson, but the force was not enough, and the young man laughed even more cheerfully.
"Gouzi, remember, this is a gift from the mountain god. Don't be greedy for too much. Do you still remember what grandpa told you?" the old man taught his grandson. "Don't even tell your parents about this place. Do you understand?"
The young man replied: "Remember, grandpa, you said that when picking herbs, you must leave the roots, you can't pick them all at once -"
The old man said: "Yes, keep a fine line in everything, otherwise it will be a disaster, not a blessing -"
The grandfather and grandson finally picked a tenth, picking at intervals, each with half a basket, and left with satisfaction.
After that, sometimes half a year, sometimes a month, the time is irregular. For safety reasons, we sometimes stay overnight in the wild and don¡¯t return until the next or third day.
In just a few years, the old man became older, his figure became more stooped, and his steps gradually became unsteady, while the boy grew into a young man, became strong and grew a short beard.
Every time they come to collect herbs, they only pick a tenth of them, and they still pick at intervals. Sometimes they even bring a hoe to carefully loosen the soil for them and add some water-storing soil. The medicinal materials on this hillside are also surprisingly rich. There are no insects or beasts to spoil it, and it has been growing very well.
However, in recent years, the world outside has been changing and becoming more and more chaotic.
After collecting the medicine this time, the two medicine baskets were carried on Gou Wa's body. The old man was panting from exhaustion and had to be supported by his grandson before he could walk.
"Old man, I can't walk anymore. I'll rely on you here from now on. Remember what grandpa said before -" the old man said sadly.
Gou Wa nodded steadily: "Grandpa, don't worry, I have always remembered that this is a gift from the mountain god. Don't be greedy for too much. You must leave roots when collecting herbs. Also, don't tell anyone about this place. You must be careful when entering and exiting the forest." Be careful and be careful, I would rather walk more and spend the night outside, otherwise it will cause disaster and break the roots of our family!"
The old man smiled happily.
After that, the old man never came again.
Gouwa got married, but his grandfather passed away, and his parents were getting older day by day, so the burden of the whole family fell on his shoulders. Therefore, he paid more attention to the life-saving hillside medicine field, and understood what his grandfather had originally thought.
Therefore, he went to the city to do hard work and worked even harder. The money earned is not only to support the family, but also to send one of the sons to a public school, instead of letting him inherit the ancestral business of farming, collecting herbs, digging in the fields and being a tenant all his life. As long as one son changes his destiny, the whole family will be better off.
As for this medicinal land, he regarded it as his last hope, for emergency and life-saving purposes. He would not come here unless absolutely necessary.
