Chapter 27 Healing

Please collect it, give me a red ticket, please be honest and don’t suffer, thank you for the small boat...

~~~~~~~

On that day, on the eve of the fall of Shenyang City, Li Kaixuan was jumping up and down, very active, and he seemed to be quite loyal and courageous, and he wanted to defend to the end. But who would have thought that this guy was also a fool.

However, looking at the current situation, the relationship is not going well.

On that day, although Li Kaixuan was only a hundred households, he was a full-time team officer. He had about a hundred people under his command and was also in charge of some military villages. He earned a thousand taels of silver a year, which was just like playing games, compared with many thousand households. Live your life with moisture.

But at this time, he only has a dozen people under his command, and they are all his servants, and they have to go out to do the night watch of "pouring chamber pots"...

The bowl of rice given to him by Jurchen Houjin was obviously not very delicious.

At this time, seeing that the resentment of the servants around him seemed to be brought up by this black spirit, Li Kaixuan said with a livid face: "You turtles, if you don't want to live alone, don't implicate me. Think about those things There is no one who ran away."

As soon as Li Kaixuan said these words, Ma Heizi and others were stunned.

Yes. At least they are still alive now. The bodies of those soldiers who resisted may not be found now.

These people did not dare to talk any more, and each leaned against the wall to keep warm.

Li Kaixuan smoked half a bag of dry cigarettes and waved his hand, "Okay, it's almost done. Let's go and have a look at the south."

These servants did not dare to neglect and hurriedly followed Li Kaixuan.

Watching their figures go away, Li Yuanqing narrowed his eyes slightly and carefully jumped down from the wall.

Li Kaixuan is quite capable, he understands current affairs and is patient. However, with his status and qualifications, the road will only become narrower and narrower.

Li Yuanqing wanted to meet this guy before, but gave up the idea after a while.

Everyone has his or her own ambitions, and it is not easy to win over someone with a feminine temperament like Li Kaixuan.

Li Yuanqing took advantage of the night and continued to move south carefully. At this time, it was almost midnight, which was around 1 o'clock in the evening in later generations. It might have been too late, and the Han army flag soldiers who were patrolling the night were too lazy to find a place to warm up. , Li Yuanqing did not encounter the night watch team again during the rest of the journey, and the pace was much faster.

Less than half an hour later, Li Yuanqing came to a dilapidated alley and stopped at the entrance of a small courtyard.

Outside the courtyard gate, there is a thick old locust tree, which may have lived for a hundred years.

At this time, an inconspicuous gray cloth strip was tied to the eastern branch of the old locust tree, swaying gently in the night wind.

Through Liu Chunhua's previous explanation, Li Yuanqing understood that this was a sign that Shang Laoliu was at home. If he was not there, there would be no cloth strip on the branch.

The wall of the small courtyard is not high, only a little higher than Li Yuanqing's. It is made of stones and rammed earth. It is already very dilapidated. The wall skin is gone and the roots of the wall are covered with moss.

Li Yuanqing glanced around and quickly climbed up the wall.

To Li Yuanqing's surprise, the lights were still on in the main room, and there was a faint smell of bitter Chinese medicine.

Li Yuanqing couldn't help but be overjoyed, Shang Laoliu was probably inside.

He carefully climbed down the wall and came to the door of the main room. He glanced inside through the broken door and window. Sure enough, Shang Laoliu was beside the stove, carefully boiling the medicine.

Li Yuanqing was overjoyed, but instead of going in rashly, he knocked lightly on the door.

"Who?" Shang Laoliu couldn't help being surprised. He stood up immediately, picked up a bench and placed it behind the door vigilantly.

Although Li Yuanqing saved Shang Laoliu's life, after all, the time we spent together was too short. Li Yuanqing was not hasty and whispered: "Brother Shang, it's me. It was Sister-in-law Chunhua who asked me to come to you."

Shang Laoliu heard the familiar voice and heard the name of his mother-in-law Liu Chunhua. He couldn't help but be startled, but still did not open the door.

Li Yuanqing whispered again: "Brother Shang, have you remembered the mass grave?"

Only then did Shang Laoliu react and opened the door carefully. When he saw Li Yuanqing, he couldn't help but be overjoyed, "My benefactor, it's really you. Why did you come to Shenyang City? Come on, come in the house."

The two of them entered the house one after another. Shang Laoliu glanced at the door and knew that Li Yuanqing had climbed over the wall. He quickly closed the door and said, "My dear, just wait, I will pour you some water. Alas, the house is no longer what it looks like." .”

Li Yuanqing smiled, did not refuse, and asked in a low voice: "How is the girl's condition?"

Shang Laoliu poured a bowl of hot water for Li Yuanqing. When Li Yuanqing asked about his daughter's condition, he couldn't help but shed tears, "Girl, girl, I'm afraid..."

Shang Laoliu couldn't speak anymore and kept sobbing. But for a moment, he suddenly remembered that it was Li Yuanqing who saved his life that day, and hurriedly said: "My dear friend, you have something to do, right?"

Li Yuanqing sighed, "My medical skills are low and I don't have much confidence. I'd better take a look at the girl first."

Shang Laoliu nodded and hurriedly led Li Yuanqing to the back room.

The space in the back room was very small, only seven or eight square meters, with a large earthen kang taking up most of the space. On the kang, wrapped in a shabby quilt, the thin face of an eleven or twelve-year-old girl appeared in front of her.

She had fallen asleep, but she was not peaceful. The expression on her face was very painful.

Seeing his daughter's painful look, Shang Laoliu's tears fell again. He didn't know what to say. He just looked at Li Yuanqing blankly, his eyes full of pleading.

Li Yuanqing ran a medicine business in his later generations. He knew more about some common diseases than ordinary people, but compared with real doctors, he was only half a knife and still far behind.

But in this situation, Li Yuanqing could only bite the bullet.

"Brother Shang, have you checked with the doctor?"

Shang Laoliu said: "I found one, but unfortunately, he couldn't tell what the disease was. Now Shenyang City is in chaos, it's hard to find a doctor, and I don't have much money here. Alas, I can only follow the earthwork that the doctor gave me. Son, take care of your daughter’s health.”

Li Yuanqing nodded, "Brother Shang, I have to take a look at the girl's body."

Shang Laoliu was stunned and didn't know how to react? Although his daughter was sick, it was her daughter's family after all. This...

But looking at Li Yuanqing's pure eyes, he also understood what Li Yuanqing meant, "Girl, she, she has lost a lot of weight."

Li Yuanqing nodded and carefully opened her quilt.

Her body was almost as skinny as a stick, but her belly was round and bulging, like a big rubber ball, which was extremely uncoordinated.

Li Yuanqing opened her eyelids and took a look. He already knew in his heart that the little girl might have eaten something unclean and had worms in her stomach.

This disease often occurs in children in later generations, but with advanced medical conditions in later generations, children usually have to take medicine once every six months, so this disease will not cause any harm.

But this was the late Ming Dynasty, and people did not have many hygiene habits, so this disease was naturally very common.

If it were the future generations, this would not be a problem at all. She would be able to recover by taking some medicine and infusing some nutrient solution. But now, this little girl is probably in an advanced stage, and the bugs may have almost taken over her intestines. In addition,

medical conditions at the time...

"My benefactor, my little girl, can she be saved?" Shang Laoliu had tears in his eyes, full of expectation.

He believed that his benefactor could bring him a second life and also his daughter.

Li Yuanqing frowned and paced slowly.

Although there was no Western medicine at this time, Li Yuanqing had several prescriptions for treating diseases in his mind. They were all prescriptions from famous doctors in the Qing Dynasty. However, the little girl looked too weak, and each prescription was based on '

For the purpose of venting, Li Yuanqing didn't know if she could hold on.

"Brother Shang, I can make a prescription, but this prescription is very dangerous. If it works, your daughter can survive it and she should be back to her original state soon. But if it doesn't work, then I will..."

Of course Li Yuanqing wanted to save this little girl. Saving a life was better than building a seven-level pagoda. What's more, it could also bring Shang Laoliu back to his heart.

However, after all, there is only one life, and Li Yuanqing does not dare to take risks with half his sword.

When Shang Laoliu heard that Li Yuanqing said that his daughter could still be saved, he couldn't care about anything else. He hurriedly said: "My dear friend, I believe in you. Just give me a prescription. If the girl can survive, it's because the Bodhisattva has protected her. If she can't survive,

,I,I don’t blame you either.”

Li Yuanqing nodded heavily, and suddenly he understood that he was very confident in the prescription. The difficulty was that the little girl's body was afraid that she would not be able to hold on, but in reality, the medication could be taken step by step.

"Brother Shang, bring me a pen and paper, and I will write you a recipe. Also, take this and I will write you a nourishing recipe." Li Yuanqing said, and gave Shang Laoliu a five-note card.

Twelve taels of silver notes.

When Shang Laoliu saw the banknote, he couldn't help but be surprised, "My benefactor, this..."

"Stop talking nonsense and go find paper and pen first."

Shang Laoliu hurriedly brought in pen and ink, which he bought specially for the doctor to prescribe.

But after getting it, Li Yuanqing panicked. Damn it, he couldn't write calligraphy. In the late Ming Dynasty, traditional Chinese characters were used, but Li Yuanqing could only write simplified Chinese characters.

He was really almost reaching the finish line, but found that his legs were cramping.

However, a living person cannot suffocate to death. After a moment, Li Yuanqing said: "Brother Shang, let's go directly to get the medicine now. There is no need to prescribe the prescription. By the way, can this bank note be used here?"

The bank note belonged to a bank in Guangning, and Li Yuanqing didn't know whether the semicolon was still there after the fall of Shenyang.

Shang Laoliu looked at it carefully and said, "My dear, it should work. I do know some words. If not, you can tell me the recipe and I will write it."

Shang Laoliu saw Li Yuanqing's embarrassment.

Li Yuanqing smiled and suppressed his uneasiness for a moment. For Shang Laoliu's profession, literacy is absolutely normal, and he hurriedly said: "That's fine, I said, you write."

Soon, Li Yuanqing told the recipe, and Shang Laoliu wrote it down as if he had found a treasure. Li Yuanqing told another nourishing recipe, and Shang Laoliu also recorded it one by one.

"My dear friend, please wait, I'm going to get some medicine for the girl right now." With that said, Shang Laoliu hurried out.

Li Yuanqing hurriedly stopped him and said, "Brother Shang, it's not yet dawn, and there are many night watch teams outside."

Shang Laoliu said: "My dear benefactor, you don't have to worry, I have a way."

Seeing his confidence, Li Yuanqing felt relieved and said, "Be careful and come back soon."

"Why."

…………

About half an hour later, Shang Laoliu came back in a hurry. Like Li Yuanqing, he did not go through the door, but climbed over the wall and came in, holding a cloth bag of medicinal materials in his hand.

"My benefactor, I have caught the medicinal materials." Although it was cold and windy outside, Shang Laoliu was sweating profusely.

Li Yuanqing nodded, "I'll make the medicine, and you can help me."

"Okay, benefactor."

The two grown men quickly got busy.
