[Three Kingdoms] Burning incense and sacrificial wine

Cui Song is ready to face doubts, and he has rehearsed countless times in his heart: no matter how suspicious Xi Zhicai is, he will bring the topic to the accident a few months ago, insisting that he lost his mind reason.

Unexpectedly, Xi Zhicai didn't play his cards according to common sense, the first sentence was actually asking Cui Song if he would trust him?

Cui Song was a little confused, not understanding what Xi Zhicai meant, so he had to keep silent.

For a moment, the air seemed to freeze.

I don't know how Xi Zhicai understands his silence.Seeing him expressionless and silent for a long time, Xi Zhicai's eyes flashed the meaning of "really so", he slowed down, and spoke after deliberation: "I have known about your injury a few months ago..."

This is not like the attitude of "invoking the teacher to ask the crime".

Cui Song faintly noticed something abnormal, although he couldn't explain why, but his subtle intuition allowed him to seize the opportunity and react one step ahead of his brain: "So what?"

This kind of rhetorical question that turns passive into active and slightly aggressive is really risky.However, Xi Zhicai didn't get angry because of this, and he didn't even doubt it. Instead, he made an analysis with him affectionately, every sentence was sincere and true, which made Cui Song speechless.

After Xi Zhicai finished speaking, Cui Song finally understood what the other party meant by trust.

It turned out that Xi Zhicai not only saw the difference between him and the original owner, but also noticed his cautiousness and unnaturalness when facing Xi Zhicai.This kind of caution and unnaturalness is understood by Xi Zhicai as "guarding".

And when Xi Zhicai accidentally learned that "Cui Song broke his head a few months ago", he naturally regarded what "Cui Song" showed as the sequelae of the broken head, and used his thinking to make up everything :

"Cui Song" lost part of his memory due to a head injury.Due to the sudden amnesia, when he was awake, he was being chased by unknown people, "Cui Song" was full of vigilance and defense against everything. In this state of mind, "Cui Song" concealed the fact of his amnesia, and no one would trust him. , he is even more wary of his "best friend" who broke out halfway...

For Xi Zhicai's brain supplement, Cui Song just wants to say: smart people just think too much.

But Cui Song also has to thank Xi Zhicai for thinking too much, at least he doesn't have to make up more lies in order not to show his feet, and in the end he was seen through by these smart people because of the many flaws.

There is another thing that Cui Song didn't think of - when he just broke his head, he thought about pretending to lose his memory, but later he thought it was wrong, so he assumed it was a joke to Gan Ji.Unexpectedly, after Xi Zhi knew about this incident, he was even more convinced that he lost his memory at that time. Because the situation was unknown, he held back and pretended to be a joke to cover up the fact of his amnesia.

For this, Cui Song was a little speechless and a little thankful, he gave up the idea of ​​pretending to have amnesia, but it turned out to be evidence that Xi Zhicai confirmed his amnesia.If Cui Song took the initiative to use the reason of "amnesia" to cover up his abnormality at that time, would it be because of this that Xi Zhi would see something and doubt his true identity?

Many thoughts flashed through his mind, but Cui Song, who had already pretended to be a habit, just stood silently, quickly adjusted his eyes as if possessed by a dramatist, and looked at Xi Zhicai with a sharper look: "Why do you say These? Why should I trust you?"

Xi Zhicai's mood at this time is still much more stable than when he first started. He brushed his clothes and got up, and stood not far from Cui Song: "Zhicai once swore to the sky that only Cui Zicong can't be bullied." No matter whether Zi Cong believes me or not, I will do my best to help you without reservation."

There is no gorgeous rhetoric, but it is more sincere.

Cui Song noticed that Xi Zhicai had changed his address, but he had no time to pay attention, only thinking about one question.

Xi Zhicai offered to help him... Although Cui Song didn't know exactly what this so-called "help" included, he didn't dare to take this seemingly delicious pie lightly.

It was hard to avoid the crisis of being exposed. Once Cui Song accepts Xi Zhicai's help, the contact between the two will inevitably increase... After a long time of contact, no one knows whether Xi Zhicai will find more flaws and discover him. It's a counterfeit.

So Cui Song was very hesitant.Xi Zhicai saw that he was unwilling to make a statement, so he did not force him, but solemnly suggested that Cui Song and him go to the medical center in the city to have a look at the old injury on his head.

Just as Cui Song wanted to refuse, he suddenly thought that it was Qiao Ji who had been helping him treat his wounds and take care of his body.Now that Qiao Ji was behaving suspiciously, he should see an outside doctor to prevent Qiao Ji from messing with him.

Thinking of the occasional chest tightness symptoms some time ago, Cui Song paid more attention to it, and readily agreed to Xi Zhicai to go to the Xunyi Clinic with him.

According to the layout map of Chang'an City, the two found several medical clinics marked on it.However, I don't know what went wrong, and I found the correct address. There is also a cloth banner representing the medical center hanging in front of the house, but the door is closed, and there are many dead leaves falling in front of the door. It is obvious that no one has lived in it for a long time.This is true for several companies in a row.

After asking someone, I found out that all the doctors who opened the clinic were arrested by Dong Zhuo—because the capital was moved in a hurry, and a large number of officials and craftsmen who resisted or were killed, there were not many doctors left in the palace. .So Dong Zhuo arrested the folk medical craftsmen and rushed to Wansuiwu to serve Dong Zhuojun and all the officials.

In this era, doctors are equivalent to all kinds of workers. In the eyes of those in power, they are like livestock and have no human rights at all.

Although Xi Zhicai was ill, he did not seek medical treatment in the medical clinic in Chang'an City, so he did not know about it.

Cui Song didn't expect such a result.The porter they came to ask for directions saw that the two of them were handsome and wanted to sell well, so he guided them: "The two gentlemen want to seek a doctor, but the younger one knows one. There are some immortal methods that can even save people who are about to die. If it is convenient for the two of you, I will lead you there."

Xi Zhicai said bluntly: "All the experienced medical craftsmen in the medical center were taken away by Grand Master Dong... Since this genius doctor has such abilities, why wasn't he called?"

Captured a bunch of medical craftsmen with ordinary medical skills, but left the so-called genius doctors outside. Does Dong Zhuo seem such a stupid person?

Hearing Xi Zhicai's question, the porter was a little unhappy.Because of class differences, the upper class may look down on doctors, but those who live at the bottom and rely on doctors for help are different.What's more, he has seen the power of a miracle doctor with his own eyes, and he admires this "living fairy" so much that he cannot be despised by others.However, the two of them were dressed as scribes, so he couldn't provoke them, so he could only bear his anger and said, "Of course it's because the genius doctor is indifferent to fame and fortune, and only wants to save the lives of the common people. Dong... the grand master took away. If it wasn't for the divine doctor who took pity on us poor and untouchables and stayed to treat everyone's illness, how could we survive? What's more, the divine doctor is a means of the gods. We just need to make a trick and set up a blindfold , how could Dong... Grand Master be able to find it?"

From the change in the porter's tone, it can be seen that he wanted to scold Dong Zhuo several times, but was deeply afraid of Dong Zhuo's power, so he could only reluctantly address him as "Grand Master".

Thinking about it, Dong Zhuo's persecution of ordinary people, from the rich and the squires to the traffickers and pawns, everyone hurt him deeply.

Although the "fairy method" mentioned by the porter made Cui Song feel very unreliable, but he still decided to see this miracle doctor.

Maybe this person is really good at medicine, and the so-called fairy method is just a kind of praise for his medical skill by other people?

So Cui Song gave the porter a few coins and asked him to lead the way.

Porters led them around, from relatively clean and tidy streets to more remote, crowded, and messy poor gathering places.

Just when Cui Song wondered if the porter was going to take them to a remote and chaotic corner for money and death, the porter finally stopped at an alley that only allowed one person to pass through and was full of garbage and sundries.

Cui Song's hand was still on the saber, and he saw the porter bowing solemnly forward.

"That's it."

The porter gave way to the side, and Cui Song finally saw the residence of the genius doctor.

This is a very rough adobe house covered with thatch.Unlike modern rural adobe houses that are flat and stable, this small house in front of us is a real adobe, made of simple mud blocks, with uneven walls and no firmness, which makes people unable to help but suspect—— Once it rains, will this mud house turn into muddy water and fall down.

The doorway was only six feet eight inches long, so Cui Song and Xi Zhi had to bend down to enter.

Perhaps it was a coincidence that there were no other patients in the room.Cui Song looked at the furnishings in the house, and found that there were very few things inside, just an earthen kang, a straw mat, a tattered box, and a chair.

A short, black and thin middle-aged man sat cross-legged in the middle of the straw mat. When he saw the two of them, he didn't get up and didn't say hello. His expression was calm, as if he really looked like a master in a martial arts novel.

Cui Song explained why he came, and the genius doctor waved his hand, signaling him to come forward and sit beside him, and he wanted to feel his pulse without using a case table or a pulse pillow.

Putting his left hand and right hand, the miracle doctor opened his eyelids, looked at his face, and said slowly: "Yin and yang are out of balance, heat and evil invade, and I've been a little angry lately..."

Cui Song thought of a blister on his tongue, and felt that this "miracle doctor" was quite reliable.

However, the purpose of his coming today is not to reduce the fire, because Xi Zhicai is right next to him, he can't directly express his doubts, so he can only save the country in a curve, first mentioning his brain injury a few months ago, and then in the name of sequelae, Subtly ask if there is any problem with your body.

The genius doctor carefully looked at Cui Song's once injured forehead, but now he can't even see the scar, and said a lot of medical theory, to the effect that: head injury is the most complicated, although the skin and flesh have healed, but I don't know what's going on inside. Take a dose of decoction and see the effect before proceeding to the next step of treatment.

After speaking, the miracle doctor lifted the curtain beside the kang, and got out through a back door that looked like a dog hole.

When he came back, he had a bowl of dark, unknown liquid in his hand.

"This is the first medicine, you drink it and come back in ten days."

The miracle doctor was stopped by a slender and pale hand while delivering the medicine.

"What kind of medicine is this?"

Xi Zhicai grabbed the other side of the medicine bowl, staring at the dark soup with the smell of weeds, his brows gradually furrowed.

The genius doctor turned cold and said, "No need for doubters, no need for employers. Since you come to see a doctor with me, you must abide by the rules and obey the doctor's orders. If you ask any questions, please move, go out and turn right to another hospital." .”

Cui Song wondered if this person was afraid that they would steal the prescription, so he was unwilling to disclose the ingredients of the medicine?

Although I know that most of the technicians in ancient times cherished themselves with their brooms, the other party was too careful.Even if they know all the ingredients of this traditional Chinese medicine, they can't make a prescription without knowing the dosage of each medicine.If the amount is used indiscriminately, not only may it have no effect, but it may also turn a good medicine into a poison.

Seeing that the genius doctor seemed to be really angry, he withdrew his hand vigorously, as if he wanted to take back the medicine bowl and drive them out.Cui Song was hesitating whether to drink the bowl of medicine first and then appease the genius doctor's emotions, but Xi Zhi refused to let the genius doctor take back the medicine bowl, and blocked Cui Song from touching the bowl of medicine juice.

During the stalemate, there was a sudden cry from outside the door.

"Miraculous doctor Ren, please bestow the talisman and save my child!"

The crying sound made Cui Song's eyebrows twitch. He stared at the bowl of soup, washed his nose vigorously, and found that there was not only the smell of herbs in the bowl, but also a slight burnt smell.

Cui Song's eyelids twitched, and his heart was swiped by three characters:

WTF?
