Chapter 139 One less corvee

"However, Zhou You, if you can come up with this recipe, it will really benefit the world. I don't know how many people can be saved in the future! The merit is immeasurable, it is really immeasurable!" Then Cui Wenzi praised and said: "Only your master can do it."

Such a true hidden master will not be greedy for fame and gain, but will work hard to figure out this recipe for the world! It really makes me admire you, I admire you so much!"

With that said, Cui Wenzi took the initiative to pour a glass of wine for Zhou You: "For the sake of your master and this recipe, we have to have a drink."

"Okay, I'm about to try this good wine, senior!" Zhou You said with a smile, stretched out his hand to pick up the wine glass and took a sip, then drank it all, and couldn't help but exclaimed with his eyes brightening: "It is indeed a good wine!"

"Come, eat!" Cui Wenzi greeted Zhou You and picked up the chopsticks to eat. He looked carefully at the table and saw that several dishes were already on discs. Looking at Gao Yao, his cheeks were bulging from eating.

He looked like a starving ghost reincarnated.

Seeing this, Zhou You couldn't help but laugh: "Haha...it doesn't matter, it doesn't matter. With such good wine, it doesn't matter even if there is wine and no food!"

"It's okay, I haven't eaten yet! I won't be full just by drinking," Cui Wenzi said angrily and looked at Gao Yao again.

"Then, how about I... cook you some more dishes to go with the wine?" After swallowing the last bite of food in his mouth, Gao Yao couldn't help but smile.

"Hurry up, don't starve the miracle doctor Cui!" Zhou You urged Gao Yao with a smile. After Gao Yao responded and got up and went to the kitchen, Cui Wenzi couldn't help but laugh at himself and shook his head: "What kind of miracle doctor am I?

The master is the real miracle doctor who can leave behind the prescription to cure the plague and benefit the world!"

After eating and drinking, Gao Yao was very quick with his hands and feet. In a short time, he prepared several freshly cooked, steaming and fragrant dishes to go with the wine.

Cui Wenzi, who was eating, drinking and laughing with Zhou You, couldn't help but admire Gao Yao's cooking skills. Zhou You couldn't help but laugh and said, "Senior, you just stay here to eat delicious dishes, right?"

"Haha, you understand!" Cui Wenzi nodded with a smile, and then said: "But you, an understanding person who has studied medicine with a hidden master and wants to be a swordsman, why do you want to be a small pavilion chief?

From the look of you, you don’t look like an official fan!"

Zhou You smiled noncommittally and said: "Just like senior, you are not willing to just be an ordinary doctor. What you pursue is medical knowledge and more advanced medical skills. Naturally, I will not be willing to just be a low-ranking official. I pursue

Yes, it’s also the ultimate!”

"What a pursuit, what a big pursuit! No wonder you don't care about medicine," Cui Wenzi immediately narrowed his eyes and looked at Zhou You and said meaningfully.

However, Cui Wenzi was most interested in medicine. Next, while eating, drinking and chatting, he couldn't help but ask Zhou You for advice on the medicine he had learned. Of course, Zhou You had nothing to be ashamed of, and he almost said everything he knew.

Then he told Cui Wenzi what he knew about medicine.

Trauma treatment methods, disinfection, the concept of bacteria and viruses, blood transfusions, surgeries, etc., as well as some treatment methods for difficult and complicated diseases that Zhou You knew, were all presented at his fingertips. Cui Wenzi was stunned and amazed.

..

Similarly, Cui Wenzi also talked about some of the medical knowledge he knew, the theory of the harmony of yin and yang in the five elements, and the methods of refining medicine for health. The two of them had an exchange of ideas, and before they knew it, it was late at night and they drank too much.

, Cui Wenzi, who was half drunk and half awake, also taught Zhou You everything he had learned, pouring out everything he had learned.

Unexpectedly, it was dawn, and he drank a lot of wine, but he became more and more energetic as he wandered around. Seeing that Cui Wenzi was already drunk, he shook his head and smiled and asked the guy who got up early to help him go to the room to sleep, and then went to the backyard well.

I washed myself, practiced boxing, stretched my fists and feet, and waited quietly for the corvees to wake up.

It’s rare to have the feeling of meeting a close friend over wine, and it’s been a long time since we talked so much. I gained a lot from my exchange with Cui Wenzi. After the corvees woke up, they had a simple breakfast and then took advantage of the cool weather to go on their way.

.

The journey went smoothly, but unexpectedly, just when Zhou You and the others were approaching Xianyang, two corvees snatched the horses and ran away early that morning.

The corvées in the Qin Dynasty were too heavy. For example, many of those who traveled long distances to build the Great Wall could not come back alive, so it was not uncommon for corvees to escape midway.

However, the Qin Dynasty punished harshly. In order to prevent corvees from escaping and to allow the corvees to supervise each other, there was a law of joint sitting. As long as one corvee escaped, the rest of the corvees would be beheaded.

Therefore, even if he understood the behavior of the two corvees escaping, Zhou You could not really let them escape. Otherwise, even if Zhou You could escape with his good martial arts, the other corvees would not be able to escape with their lives. Once Zhou You was convicted and escaped,

If so, Lu Gong's family in Peixian County will definitely be implicated.

Relying on his extraordinary Qinggong skills, he could run as fast as a BMW horse. He chased him out of the inn alone. After catching up outside the city, he let go of his speed and soon caught up with the two fleeing men.

corvée.

When Zhou You threw them off the horse, other corvees who hurriedly chased after them also arrived. The other corvees, who were suddenly angry, punched and kicked the two fleeing corvees. If Zhou You hadn't stopped them, they would have been killed.

I'm afraid the other corvees are tempted to beat them to death.

After all, if they escaped, it would be equivalent to killing the lives of other corvees! Of course, they couldn't be beaten to death, otherwise everyone else would die as well.

"Huh? That's not right..." After the two corvees who were trying to escape were beaten severely, their noses and faces were bruised and swollen, looking at the still angry corvees around them, Zhou You suddenly noticed something like this and couldn't help but blush.

Change: "Where is Xiao Liuzi?"

"Xiao Liuzi..." The other corvee turned around and saw that the youngest young corvee was no longer there, and their expressions changed.

The group of people returned to the previous inn. The corvees searched for it, but still found no trace of Xiao Liuzi. They realized that he might have escaped in the chaos, and they couldn't help but panic. One ran away, and two ran away.

, but there is no difference!

In the courtyard of the inn, looking at the panicked corvees, Zhou You couldn't help but grit his teeth secretly in depression. He really didn't expect such an accident to happen.

"What should I do? Should I abandon them and flee back to Pei County alone?" Looking at the equally panicked servants, they soon looked at him as if asking for help. Zhou You, with twinkling eyes, gritted his teeth and said, "This way

, since there is one less corvee, I will take over."

On the top? When the corvee heard this, they couldn't help but look at Zhou You in surprise. They were silent for a while, as if they couldn't believe it. Zhou You was the chief of the pavilion, so he was different from ordinary people like them, and he was newly married in the family.

He married his beloved wife and was actually willing to do corvée work?

"This is the only way! Otherwise, would I have to watch you all get killed?" Zhou You sighed helplessly.

When the corvees heard this, they were all moved and knelt down to Zhou You: "Chief Zhou Ting..."

"Okay, let's all get up! We have to hurry up. We are not far from Xianyang, and we can't let anything go wrong next," Zhou You said and stepped forward to help them up.

He did this not only because he did not want these innocent slaves to die, but also to establish his own image of benevolence and righteousness, and thirdly because he wanted to take the opportunity to visit the Great Wall, which could be regarded as killing three birds with one stone. Therefore, things in the world,
Chapter completed!
