64. Hide for what you get(1/2)

The atmosphere in Shimo Mountain Village is strange.

Everyone looked at the two outsiders brought in by the boss and whispered.

The woman with burn scars on her face hurriedly covered her face and avoided her inside. Her child stood outside with her fingers in her mouth, looking around blankly, not knowing what was going on.

This child is one of the rare people with normal facial features in the village.

Although she is ordinary, she seems particularly special here.

"Dad, what's wrong with mom?" the child asked to jump to a man's leg.

The man had a birthmark on his face, and half of his face was extremely ferocious. He lowered his head and touched the child's head without saying anything.

Mo Li felt that the people in this mountain village had a faint hostility in their eyes.

This can be said to be an attitude towards outsiders, but it is more of a strong sense of rejection—

Because of the appearance? Mo Li was thinking.

It is impossible for people in a place to have strange shapes. Even if they really do, they still have the same abnormality. It is impossible for various situations to occur, let alone those who are burned by fire and born with birthmarks.

The village is a bandit that gathered together.

Ning Changyuan marked the map with very detailed marks of the forces in the Jianghu area. He did not write only two situations.

1. The power is too small, not to be afraid.

2. He didn't know that there was this power.

What is the situation of Shimo Mountain Village? In order to forge a road guide, Ning Changyuan stole all the seals of the large and small government officials in Yongzhou. He said that he did not know that there was a mountain village on Shimo Mountain, and the possibility was very small. Even if it was hidden tightly, there were always clues left.

Then the power is too small.

Mo Li looked around and found that the village was very dilapidated, but people didn't look like they were not covered in their clothes and food.

There is no decent house, maybe it is because there are no masons and no carpenters here.

At this time, Shimoda spoke: "Everyone is let go, this is the doctor who came to the mountains to collect herbs."

Everyone suddenly became quiet.

Although outsiders are not allowed to enter Shimo Mountain Village, there are still exceptions, such as peddlers selling goods and monks. The former can bring salt, needles and thread to Shimo Mountain Village, while the latter can barely see headaches and fevers, and can also cure trauma.

Of course, I had to blindfold my eyes and bring it in.

These people don’t want copper coins, and silver coins are useless for dry food or water.

In addition, there are herbs that need to be dried.

People will always get sick if they eat grains and grains, regardless of their poverty, wealth and honor.

In the year of natural disasters and famine, these are all those who die of starvation, and those who die of illness are scarce.

So when I heard that outsiders needed herbs, the people from Shimoshan Village believed it.

The mountain is so big that it cannot be occupied unless it is a group of hundreds of soldiers. The government has such strength, but there is nothing here, and there is no one around a hundred miles of deserted areas, so the soldiers and generals are not willing to suffer this hardship.

"Is such a young doctor reliable?"

The head of Shimo's big boss's eyelids twitched and he said in a low voice: "I have the ability. You don't talk nonsense, where are the second head's family?"

When they heard that they were here to treat the second head of the family, the people in the village immediately made way.

"Everyone goes to work, and the snow outside melts." The head of Shimo said loudly.

He was worried that Mo Li and Meng Qi were the kind of people with bad tempers in the martial arts world. Although the people in the village would fight and make fuss, they were vulnerable to real masters. As the leader, he naturally had to consider the lives of the entire village.

Alas, it's all his fault for being misleading.

I clearly saw this doctor before, and it was very kind and made people feel good about it. Why...

The copycat was not big, and before the Shimo Master finished his thoughts, he had already walked to a stone house.

"Two brothers?"

After saying that, he didn't wait for the answer inside, so he took it first.

The light in the stone house was dim, and bypassed the stones that acted as tables and chairs. Human eyes vaguely saw a person lying on the earthen kang behind.

An old woman by the kang put down the bowl and came clumsyly to greet him: "Boss, is this?"

"The doctor who came out to see the second brother."

After the master of Shimu said that, he would light a candle.

Seeing the pitifully short piece of candle on the table, Mo Li stopped him and said, "We martial artists have a good eye and do not need to light the lamp."

The leader of Shimo was stunned, and then he thought in disappointment that this martial arts practitioner's statement was too biased, and only the internal masters had this ability. Those who practice kung fu like him could not see it or not.

Meng Qi didn't say anything, he was looking at the person lying on the kang.

His face was sallow and thin.

His appearance is not bad - yes, under the continuous impact of the Shimo Mountain Village, Meng Qi began to pay attention to people's appearance. Although people's beauty and ugliness are similar to him, can it be unclear who looks ordinary and who has a special appearance?

This second in command of Shimo Village is a very outstanding man.

The eyebrows and eyes are picturesque, and the nose is like a gallbladder.

In addition to heroic spirit, there is also an indescribable beauty.

But now he is sick, his appearance has decreased by at least three points, and the light in the room is very dim again. He opened his eyes slightly and whispered: "Doctor from the outside? Didn't you say that Master Yuanzhi will come when February?"

"As soon as you get started, your abdominal pain will be like a thorn. How can you survive until next month?" Shimo said in a rough voice, turning to explain, "Master Yuanzhi is a traveling monk who often comes here. He knows a little bit of the trick of making a difference. When he left last time, my second brother was not sick."

Shimo is proficient in human nature and worldly affairs, and knows that some doctors are afraid of taking over other patients in the middle.

Mo Li didn't mind too much. He took the bowl that the old woman put down, smelled the residue inside, and judged the medicinal properties.

The second head of the house, who was lying on the earthen kang, looked at them vigilantly, and instead of looking at Mo Li, he paid more attention to Meng Qi standing in the distance. Even if he was in the dark for a long time, the eyesight of ordinary people is not enough to see that far away.

This tiny move is enough to show that the second in command has probably practiced internal strength.

Because the second head of the army was too obvious, even the old woman felt that she wanted to smooth things over, but she didn't know what to say, and she broke out in a cold sweat.

The head of Shimo was a little confused. He advised: "Second brother, this doctor has entered the village all the way, and he has no strange looks when he sees me. Even if we have different appearances and are prejudiced by the world, don't make things difficult for yourself. You are so sick that the brothers in the village are worried. If you are brothers, just listen to me this time!"

Meng Qi was puzzled in his heart, what's the difference in appearance?

He couldn't help but look at the body covered by the second head of the house under the quilt, and the latter noticed it and was even more angry.

Perhaps compared to Mo Li, Meng Qi was more trustworthy. The second leader hesitated for a while, but finally didn't say anything. He slowly lifted the quilt and stretched out his left hand.

“…”

Although he only stretched out one hand, the person sat up and the situation on his right shoulder was also exposed.

This second-in-command with a very outstanding appearance has an unusually swelling right shoulder, looking like a deformed round and round one. Below the shoulder, besides the normal right arm, there is also a thin and thin arm hanging.

Is this three hands long?

After Meng Qi was stunned, he suddenly remembered that there was a hidden weapon master in the world who always wore a cloak that could wrap his body. He had extremely high light skills. Later, one day when he was in a duel with someone, his cloak was broken and everyone was upset. It turned out that this so-called master was actually a deformed monster.

This incident was very rumored. Even Meng Qi, who had no idea about the story of the world, had heard people say in a city teahouse.

Mo Li paused, and did not look at the abnormal and weird arm more often, but took the pulse seriously.

Of course Mo Li was not very happy with the strong hostility shown by the other party before, but he was invited to see the doctor. As long as the patient did not make too much of a move, Mo Li would not leave.

As a result, Mo Li felt halfway through her unhappiness when she saw such an unusual situation.

The worldly rumors can kill people. Like the second leader of Shimoshan, it is even harder to live than other ugly people.

After carefully checking the pulse, the remaining unhappiness of the Mo Li disappeared.

Because he understood why the second leader of Shimoshan insisted on finding a familiar traveling monk to see a doctor, and also understood what this kind of limb deformity is going on.

"Doctor, is my second brother's illness?" Shimoshan asked anxiously.

"...It's an intestinal abscess, but it's hard to say if it's delayed." Mo Li met the second in commander's vigilant gaze. He nodded calmly and only talked about the disease.

"Intestinal carbuncle?" The boss of Shimo was shocked. He had heard of this disease.

Carbuncles are abscesses. They are good on the face and body. If they are intestinal carbuncles, they will be killed.

"I, I heard that this is to..."

The master of Shimu gritted his teeth and gestured.

The doctor who wants to open the stomach and treats carbuncles has no status in the apricot forest because many people are unwilling to do things such as dirty and odor. However, the intestinal carbuncle is not an old doctor who has been in the past, so he dare not use a knife at all.

"It's not that serious, take the medicine first." Mo Li saw that there was no paper or pen around, so she orally described the prescription.

Rhubarb, peony bark, peach kernel, etc.

This is a famous prescription in the Jinkui Medical Book, which is specially used to treat intestinal abscess.

Mo Li took his vein again, pondered for a while and said, "Drink for three days first, and then I will prescribe two prescriptions to clear heat."

This is to temporarily live in the mountain village. After Shimodao thanked him, he took people out. The second boss looked complicated and wanted to say something, but he didn't say anything.

"I came to Yongzhou a few years ago, but it was not so desolate." Mo Li said aloud.

The master of Shimo shook his head and said nothing about the sufferings of the people.
