Opposite the entrance hall

The body didn't move, but the heart was confused.

Like a stone falling into the water, there is a dull sound, the water splashes in all directions, and the ripples spread out layer by layer, which cannot be calmed down for a long time.

There was a wave in Ji Si's heart. He looked at the pair of dark pupils. The pupils in front of his eyes were as clear as a mirror, and his embarrassed appearance was printed inside. Every expression and movement showed his original shape. Even a hiding place Nothing, every move is inevitable.

He seemed to be undressed, his whole body was exposed to the sun, and his eyes fell on him, causing a sense of shame to surge up immediately, those calm and self-restraining, calm mind, in the situation in front of him, disappeared completely.

Neither of the two made a sound, they stared at each other, and their breathing slowed down.

Qi Ran pursed his lips tightly, his eyes looked the same as before, he couldn't see any joy or anger, Ji Si clenched his clothes tightly, his heart beat very fast, there were a few times, as if he was about to burst The chest popped out, the thoughts in his head were in a mess, and he couldn't even do the simple action of turning his head and looking away.

After a while, Qi Ran lowered his eyes first, ended the awkward staring, and said in a deep voice, "Master Ji."

Before turning his head, Ji Si nodded hastily.

Qi Ran frowned and hesitated, but after thinking about it, he said, "You..."

"Master Qi!"

Before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by a sound, and then the curtain was suddenly lifted, and the chief envoy rushed in with a panicked expression, looked around, and finally walked towards the corner. Dazed for a moment, he saluted quickly, and then said to Qi Ran: "It's not good, something happened."

"What's the matter?" Qi Ran stood up and asked.

"A large number of patients with fever and cough were found on Youxing Street. They would not enter the isolation shed, saying that they would not come out after being told by others, and could only wait for death in it. Now they have a quarrel with our people. Take The hoe injured several brothers." The chief envoy said in a panic.

Qi Ran frowned, his face was not very good-looking, and he quickly ordered: "Let the people from the government office take Mujia over there, if anyone makes trouble again, they will be handcuffed and sent to the cell for a few days, and those who are sick will be sent to isolation." Don’t relax in the shed, use a horse to surround the roads around the street, let the doctor check one by one, and send someone to sprinkle lime water after making sure there is nothing missing. I will go there with you now, but I want to see who is deceiving people. Incite the people."

He walked very fast, and in a blink of an eye he had already reached the shed, and when his fingers rested on the curtain, he suddenly thought of something, withdrew his hand and turned to look at Ji Si behind him, who also got up and looked over, the two of them When the eyes meet, there seems to be a thousand words, but also seems to be relatively speechless, there is an unspeakable meaning in the eyes, finally Qi Ran slightly nodded, retracted his gaze and bowed out.

Ji Si also sat back, his lip line was tight, and his heart was very confused.

Qi Ran's unfinished sentence made him panic even more.

what are you doing?

You are sick?

Are you calculating something again?

Are you disgusting?

……

He actually thought about several possibilities, and even thought about how to answer for a long time, but in the end he couldn't know.

It's ridiculous to say that this kind of drama in the storybook can also happen to him. The self-control and calmness that he is proud of have all been fed to the dogs.

Ji Si raised his hand and gave himself a moderate slap.

Beauty is wrong, beauty is wrong.

Time to fight!

What exactly Qi Ran wants to say, I can't guess now, sitting here and thinking about it for another ten days and a half months is just a waste of effort, after Qi Ran has dealt with these matters, it will not be too late to speak slowly, why bother yourself Woolen cloth.

He has always been the best way to make his life easier, no matter what he is dealing with.

Thinking like this, Ji Si's boredom disappeared a lot, he stood up and patted the ashes on his body, and walked out of the shed unhurriedly.

He came here today not only to see Qi Ran, but mainly to find Cen Yulou.

Since the outbreak of the epidemic in Xiangzhou, the pharmacies and clinics in the city have seen business opportunities, and they have taken advantage of this momentum to make national disasters. The medicinal materials are more than twice as high as before, and even the consultation fees are much more expensive. There is no shortage of food in Xiangzhou Now, this medicinal material has become hard to find again, and the people in the city also know that the price is too high, but everyone is afraid of death, and no one wants to go into the isolation shed, some cough and fever are secretly concealed, and they would rather fight here and there. Spend a lot of money to buy medicinal materials and take them back.

In the Baojitang in the west of the city, Sanqingshui came out the day before yesterday, and it was said that it was a prescription left by the ancestors. If you take it continuously for a month, you will not be infected with the disease. Seriously, who would have thought that someone in the west of the city had a fever and cough, and after drinking this medicine for two hours, the fever subsided, and even the cough disappeared.

The people in the city flocked to Baojitang after hearing the sound, and the Sanqingshui was snatched up in the blink of an eye. Those who snatched it were like a magic elixir, and those who didn’t snatched it were lifeless, kneeling on the ground and suffering plead.

At this time, Baojitang put up a notice to sell [-] bottles of Sanqing water every morning and evening. Well, the price of Sanqingshui has suddenly risen from five hundred yuan a bottle to three taels a bottle. Maybe in a few days, the epidemic will be more serious, and a bottle of dozens of taels is not out of the question.

As soon as the Sanqingshui came out of Baojitang, the people in the city believed in it, and patients with fever and cough symptoms did not want to go to the isolation shed, pinning their hopes of recovery on this miraculous medicine.

The major medical clinics lost a lot of business, not to mention the small medical stall in Cen Yulou.

Sitting upright in front of the stall, he was a little puzzled and asked, "Why are there fewer and fewer people seeing the doctor in the past two days?"

Scratching his itchy scalp on the first day of the lunar new year, he frowned and said, "Mr. is only interested in reading medical books, so naturally I don't know what kind of medicine this Baojitang has produced. It is said that taking one day can prevent the disease, and taking one day in a row will prevent the disease." After a month, you can go to the fever and cough and slowly recover, no, people in the city are queuing up to grab the medicine."

"What medicine?" Cen Yulou asked thoughtfully.

"I don't know," Chu Yi shrugged, "Anyway, it's quite mysterious, like a magic elixir."

"I don't know what the pathogen is, so how can I use medicine at will?" Cen Yulou became angry, "Are these people afraid of death because they don't know what medicine is used in it? Dare to enter it without knowing anything, let alone This medicine is three-point poisonous, and if the dosage is wrong, the life-saving medicine can also become a life-saving talisman, are they crazy?"

"Ah," sighed the first day of the lunar new year, "people in Xiangzhou city have gone crazy for a long time now. They don't go to see a doctor when they get sick. They have to say that they offended ghosts and gods. They go to temples all day long. Those who get sick They don’t go to the isolation shed, but fight against the government everywhere, and now there is something that can cure the epidemic, they must rush to grab it.”

Hearing this, Cen Yulou's expression darkened, he stood up angrily and began to pack his things.

"What are you doing, sir?" Chu Yi asked quickly.

"Stop setting up a stall and go home. I can heal diseases but not people. If they want to die, I can do nothing but let them die. Let's leave it alone. We'll be much happier at leisure."

I have heard these words countless times in the first day of junior high school. This person has this temperament. When his temper comes up, he has an attitude that other people's life and death have nothing to do with him. It is the foundation of medicine, saving lives and healing the wounded.

Therefore, he didn't take it seriously on the first day of the junior high school. Just as he was about to stretch out his hand to calm people down, he saw a hand suddenly stretched out from the table, and slowly pressed down the medical book that Cen Yulou had picked up.

The two raised their heads along this hand with well-defined joints, and saw a man with a very good appearance, even a bit gorgeous. He was wearing a dark brocade suit, and his hair was tied with a gilt crown, showing his identity everywhere. Bufan, on the first day of the lunar new year, he frowned. He couldn't see the identity of this person, but he also knew that he was either rich or noble, so he didn't understand why this person came, so he couldn't help being a little more wary.

Compared with the carefulness in the first year of junior high school, Cen Yulou looked much calmer. He withdrew his hands and sat back, but didn't make a sound, waiting for the person to explain why he came.

Ji Si smiled at him, pulled the chair behind him and sat down, took the pen on the table and wrote:

[Coincidentally passing by, come to say hello to Dr. Cen]

"You look so good-looking, but you're actually dumb." Chu Yi glanced down, then raised his chin, and said in a bad tone.

"On the first day of junior high school," Cen Yulou turned his head and glared at him before apologizing to Ji Si: "It was an unintentional mistake, and I hope the assistant minister will not care about it."

Hearing this address, he was shocked at this time in the first day of the junior high school. He stared at Ji Si for a long time, but he really couldn't connect the man in front of him with the evil Ji Shilang who did all kinds of crimes, disregarded human life, and was full of evil in other people's mouths.

Ji Si was amused by the frightened look of his wide eyes, and shook his head, not taking it to heart.

"How's your servant's injury?" Cen Yulou asked.

【I just came here to let Dr. Cen see how the recovery is going】

Ji Si wrote while touching the wound on his neck.

"It's inconvenient for people to come and go on this street." Cen Yulou politely declined.

【That's easy, Dr. Cen will go back with me, or I will go back with Dr. Cen, it depends on how convenient it is for Dr. Cen to come】

In terms of brazenness, Ji Si is still slightly better.

Cen Yulou pursed his lips, not knowing what to say.

I looked around in the first day of junior high school and felt that the atmosphere was a little tense, so I had to shut up and keep quiet.

Ji Si pressed on step by step.

[Doctor Cen is a doctor, so he must have read Zhang Yisheng's "Treatise on Febrile and Miscellaneous Diseases"]

"What do you mean, Lord Minister?"

[There is a saying in "Treatise on Febrile and Miscellaneous Diseases" that Ji likes very much. I don’t know if Dr. Cen has any impression. If you advance, you will save the world, and if you retreat, you will save the people; if you can’t be a good looker, you should also be a good doctor]

Cen Yulou stared at the sentence on the paper for a long time, without a trace of emotion on his face, making it impossible to see what he was thinking.

Ji Si narrowed his eyes and continued to write:

[Dr. Cen treats diseases as a good doctor, and I want to treat people as a good minister. You and I just want to save Xiangzhou, why can't we cooperate]

"If you have a weak heart, how can you save it? With poor medical skills, how can you treat it? If you hide your illness and avoid medical treatment, no one will believe you, so what can you do?" Cen Yulou asked rhetorically.

【I believe】

Cen Yulou looked up at him.

[Since entering Xiangzhou, I have believed everything Dr. Cen said]

"Is this true?"

【No lies】

Cen Yulou lowered his eyes and pondered for a moment, then raised his eyelids again, and said word by word: "Then if you say that Baojitang makes money by taking advantage of difficulties, fools the people, treats human life as a trifle, and cures diseases are just made up, Mr. Will you believe me?"

Ji Si tilted his head and smiled at the corner of his mouth. When he stared at the person, his eyebrows and eyes were very affectionate, and he blinked when he heard the person finished speaking.

【letter】

Seeing him like this, Cen Yulou pursed his lips.

[The way of letting others go is the most important thing. If I want to have friendship with you, I should exchange my sincerity for my sincerity. What Dr. Cen said is naturally believed.]

"What about Ji Shilang then?" Cen Yulou asked.

Ji Si's eyes froze, and his smile deepened.

Before the application time came, there was a long queue at the entrance of Baoji Hall. At a glance, there were no less than a hundred people. All of them covered their faces with white cloths and stretched their heads to look ahead. They frowned and rubbed their hands anxiously.

When there was the sound of the door opening, there was a commotion in the crowd immediately, and they cast their gazes over.

The store door opened slowly, and a person dressed in the costume of Baojitang's apprentice came out with tables and chairs. At the end was a fat man with narrowed eyes, standing on the steps of the store, with a smile on his mouth, scanning everyone After a circle, he raised his hand to signal them to be silent, then he cleared his throat and said, "My folks have waited for a long time, all for the Sanqingshui of my Baojitang, let's not talk nonsense, first come first served, but today some different……"

Having said that, he breathed a sigh of relief, touched his neck and continued: "Five taels of silver a bottle."

As soon as the words fell, the crowd immediately became noisy.

"Didn't you pay back three liang of silver in the morning? Why is it so much more expensive before the day passes?"

"Yes, yes."

"My wife has a fever and cough, and I managed to get together three taels of silver. This... what should I do!"

"too expensive."

The shopkeeper of Baojitang didn't make a sound, and let them make noise, just picked up a white porcelain bottle and played with it in his hands, and then with a "bang", the porcelain bottle fell to the ground and shattered, the liquid inside spilled all over the floor, and the noise stopped abruptly.

The fat man narrowed his eyes with a smile on his face, with a kind face and a round belly, resembling a kind-hearted Maitreya Buddha. "I'm really sorry, I slipped my hand just now. Today's Sanqingshui only has 290 nine bottles."

The crowd was silent, and then took out their silver and swarmed up.

Suddenly, the officials of the Xiangzhou Government came running quickly, with their knives drawn out of their sheaths, and surrounded Baojitang tightly. They scanned the crowd and said sharply, "Someone reported that Baojitang was selling fake medicines. This matter?"

The fat shopkeeper was a little flustered and bowed to please: "Master, our Baojitang has always done our duty to save lives and heal the wounded. This medicine is also the prescription of our ancestors. Who deliberately framed it!"

"My wife did not cough anymore after drinking the medicine."

"So is my dad."

The crowd was noisy, no one in the government office spoke, just had a cold face, and then three people walked over from the crowd, and the officials all bowed their heads to salute, "Master Ji."

Discussions sounded again among the people.

Ji Si walked through the crowd unhurriedly, picked up the porcelain vase on the table and played with it, as if he had found something novel.

"My lord," the fat shopkeeper saw him, and now he realized that something was wrong, he leaned over to laugh with him, "Is there a misunderstanding?"

His smiling facial features were wrinkled together, he was not born well, but now he was even uglier, Ji Si didn't even bother to look at it, and handed the bottle to Cen Yulou who was beside him.

The latter took it, uncorked it, put it under his nose, sniffed it, put some on his palm, put some in his mouth, tasted it, and then said softly: "There are Scutellaria baicalensis, Forsythia scrophulariae and Scrophulariaceae in it, and Realgar, although it can clear away heat and detoxify, but realgar is pungent and warm, so it should be taken orally with caution, as this prescription is too heavy, it will do all kinds of harm to the body without any benefit."

Ji Si squinted his eyes, curled his lips into a sneer, and his whole body was terrified. He raised his hand, and the officer was signaled to hold everyone in Baoji Hall with a knife, and let them cry and cry for injustice without being moved.

This series of events happened too quickly, and when the people reacted, all that was left was a mess.

"This..." Someone asked in a trembling voice, "Can I still buy medicine here?"

No one answered his words.

Cen Yulou took a step forward and tore off the white cloth, "Fellow folks, this medicine can't cure the disease, but taking too much of it will damage the spleen and kidney..."

Before he finished speaking, the crowd suddenly burst into roars: "You nonsense! My son took this medicine, and he obviously dissipated his fever. This is a good medicine for curing diseases! You are so vicious, you destroyed Baojitang What is your intention to ruin our life-saving medicine."

"This is not a life-saving medicine," Cen Yulou explained: "I am a doctor, and I know better than you. There is Forsythia Astragali in it. The medicinal property is to clear away heat. Although realgar can detoxify, it can hurt the body when taken internally. It can only relieve the pain." If it cannot be cured, the disease is contagious, you should send the infected family members to the isolation shed..."

"Don't listen to his nonsense," a voice came from the crowd again, "He and the government just sang together, just wanting us to go to the isolation shed to fend for ourselves, and no one cares about our lives."

"I know him. He is the doctor on the East Street. Before the epidemic, this man went around saying that there will be an epidemic after the flood. He knows medicine. Maybe he caused the disease."

"The government should arrest him!"

"Yeah, why didn't you catch him!"

On the first day of the lunar new year, he was furious and pointed at them and yelled, "Don't spray people with blood!"

The people's discussion became more and more noisy.

Ji Si walked around the table and chairs with his hands behind his back, and then kicked them over with a sudden kick. The orderly arranged porcelain vases on them crackled and shattered to the ground.

They were ordinary people who had never seen such a big scene. They all shrank their heads when they were so frightened. They looked at the official who was holding a knife, and had no choice but to swear and disperse.

"Thank you, Master Ji." Cen Yulou rubbed his eyebrows.

Ji Si smiled and waved his hand.

He admired Cen Yulou because he had a sense of responsibility and justice that no one else had.

There are many people in the world who are selfish and short-sighted, which makes Cen Yulou's kindness even more rare.

The dust fell here, but the Longxi chief envoy came across the street on horseback. As soon as he got off his horse, he hurriedly said: "Master Ji, Lord Qi fainted in Youxing Street."

Ji Si's smile froze on his face.

Between the pitches, the tingling pain in the heart seemed to stop suddenly.

His sky has collapsed.
