Aspirations for Nation and Beauty: Section 51: Exploring the Wind
"Young Master, thank you for your kindness. This disease of my family is a gift from God. Please don't make things difficult for Mr., as the old saying goes: medicine can cure diseases, and Buddha can save those who are destined. If it is destined, why force it? "The snow-clothed girl frowned slightly, then showed her face, only a trace of regret in her eyes quietly revealed her desire for life.
"Young lady's words are too negative. It's not the last moment to say anything. It's hard to draw conclusions. Haven't you heard of the saying that man can conquer nature?" Mr. Hua, you haven't finished talking just now, unless what?"
"Uh, this..." Hua Zhongjing didn't expect Wufeng to pursue him so hard, so he said, "Unless a miracle happens."
"Then what does this miracle refer to?" Wufeng was still digging to the bottom, as if he would not give up until he reached his goal.
"Well, for example, if you can find the legendary fetish and supplement it with special means, maybe you can..." Hua Zhongjing replied hesitantly, "But..."
Before the other party finished speaking, Wufeng immediately interrupted and asked: "What is the **** you are talking about?"
"Uh, the old man has practiced medicine all his life, and he didn't believe in such strange things at all, but there is a thing recorded in the ancient book "Strange Stories from Mountains and Seas", which is said to have the power to restore the sky, and can make people's meridians unobstructed and firm. , can reshape the meridians of the patient's whole body. This girl's condition is actually very simple. The yin and cold qi in her veins are deeply planted. If the yang medicine is forcibly driven away, the patient's body will collapse. If this thing is supplemented , it can make no danger, not only can make the disease heal, but also be of great benefit to the patient's body." Hua Zhongjing pondered for a long time and finally said the meaning of this miracle, "It's just that such a strange thing, I have never heard of it in my life. However, what’s more, there seems to be no such geographical environment in the empire.”
"What exactly is it? Where is it produced?" Wufeng couldn't wait any longer, and his sharp eyes locked on the face of the black and thin old man.
"This thing is called the Celestial Purple Star. It is a perennial pearl produced in a swamp mussel, but this kind of mussel is called a green mussel, which is hard to find in ordinary rivers and lakes. It is usually produced in the depths of the big swamp, and This thing has a very short lifespan, and usually dies within a year or two, but the purple star is a clam that absorbs the spiritual energy of heaven and earth and exceeds a hundred years old. The body will turn purple, and the pearl produced in its body is called the sky purple star. As far as I know, there doesn't seem to be such a large swamp suitable for mussels in the empire, so I have never heard of anyone getting this thing."
"What about the rest of the continent?" Wufeng asked.
"I heard that there are many large swamp areas in the central and western continents, and there may be mussels. However, these century-old mussels are only known in medical books, but they are unheard of in reality. Whether they really exist is unknown. It's an unknown." Hua Zhongjing shook his head, obviously not convinced by such rumors.
"Oh, what Mr. Yihua means, is there still a possibility of this thing existing in swamps in other parts of the mainland?" Wufeng Meifeng Yisong.
"My lord, the theory contained in the book should exist, but I don't dare to say whether there is such a thing." Hua Zhongjing also saw what Wufeng was thinking, and explained tactfully.
Having become a doctor after a long illness, the snow-clothed girl probably also heard about the famous doctors in the empire, and sighed: "This gentleman is probably Mr. Hua Zhongjing who is known as the 'sage of medicine' in the empire, right? Please don’t make things difficult for Mr. Hua, my son. My father also has a little property, and he sent people to various parts of the mainland to find medicines to treat my slave’s illness, but they found nothing. Items like what Mr. Hua said are things that can’t be found. , not by force.”
Looking at the girl who was as light as water with some regret, Wufeng shook his head unwillingly: "I haven't tried it, how do I know? Everything is born, there must be strange things, and the girl doesn't need to be too desperate, just look at it, this is not impossible What you want."
Turning his head, he said to the black and thin old man: "Mr. Yihua only sees this thing in the Green Sea Swamp in Central China?"
"Well, I heard that the Green Sea Swamp is vast and vast, with a radius of nearly a thousand miles. It is the most magical place in the Central Continent. It is covered with clouds and mist, and there are indeed all kinds of strange things. It is said that no one has ever been able to reach the core. It’s just that I dare not say whether there are such hundred-year-old mussels. Besides, even if there are, I’m afraid no one will be able to find them.” Hearing Wufeng mention the Green Sea Swamp, Hua Zhongjing’s expression moved slightly, but In the end, I still dare not make a conclusion.
"Well, that's how it is." Wu Feng nodded his head heavily, and said nothing.
The sky was pale. The girl was lying on the bed. She tried to prop up her body, but her body was still a little weak. A wry smile crept up her cheeks. Could it be that she really only had half a year to live? I have come to a conclusion, I am afraid that there is really no other possibility except for a miracle.
Leaning on the wooden wall, I moved quietly to the window, opened the window, and the fresh morning light came to my face. The streets were already busy. While packing up the luggage and goods, the animals seemed to be busy on the road, whistling and kicking restlessly; in the distance, the sound of training of the soldiers in the field could be heard intermittently, and everything seemed so harmonious and peaceful.
Letting go of her physical problems, the girl in snow clothes couldn't help but focus on the man in the blue shirt who accompanied her back yesterday. This guy confused her even more than the female companion next door. Make yourself inexplicable. I can be sure that this guy is definitely not a businessman, a scholar or even a son of an official. He has a different feeling from anyone I have ever met before.
What is the origin of this guy? Even the famous medical saint respects this guy? Could it be a nobleman in the imperial court, or a royal family member? How did he come to this far northwest? Come on? No matter what she thought, the girl did not associate this young man she met by chance with the Northwest King who is all over the world. In her heart, even if Li Wufeng was not a murderous martial artist, he must be a wily man. Such a handsome politician would never have thought that he would be such a handsome man.
"My lord, what seems to be on your mind?" Su Qin, who is good at observing words and expressions, can see at a glance that the boss sitting in the handsome chair is a little restless.
"It's nothing, come and sit." Wufeng shook his head, as if he was about to throw something away, and his face quickly returned to normal, "I want to go to the north to see if it's possible to get along with him. The Baiyin people have drawn up the relationship, and the Kaman people are too great a threat to us. If they can't effectively contain the other party, the Kaman people can cause harm to us at any time, so that we have been in a rather passive environment. This is I can't tolerate it."
"Baiyin people? My lord, do you want to go in person?" The old Su Qin was also taken aback, "This is too risky and inappropriate. Su Qin cannot agree."
"Adventure? What's the risk? I live here before putting on makeup, and I didn't go there blatantly. Who would know?" Wu Feng shrugged, looking indifferent, as if he was staying in a tourist resort for vacation.
"Well, the Boyin people are located in the Marston wilderness area in the extreme north, separated by the Heathrow people and the Kaman people. No matter which route they go, it is quite dangerous. Once the enemy finds out, the consequences will be disastrous If your lord can trust Su Qin, it is better for Su Qin to live with you on behalf of your lord." Su Qin still stubbornly expressed his objection.
"No need to say any more, I have already decided, I plan to pass through the territory of the Mote people and the Tubu people, go to the north and then turn east to enter the territory of the Boyin people, so although the time will be slightly longer , but the risk is very small, and there are not so many checkpoints, maybe the time will be faster." Waving his hand, Wufeng stopped the other party's persuasion, "I want to come back within a month. In addition, I have another task to give you."
Su Qin had known for a long time that the other party must have something to entrust to him. If it was just ordinary government affairs, he would definitely entrust it to Xiao Tang and himself. This kind of summoning him alone must be an isolated incident.
"My lord, please order."
"I would like to invite you to take a trip to the south of the Yangtze River." After pondering for a while, Wu Feng put down the Xuanyu paperweight in Yu Zhong.
"Jiangnan?!" Su Qin was shocked again, but he knew that the other party must have something to say, so he waited patiently for Wufeng to continue.
"Well, it's Jiangnan, your hometown." Wufeng obviously did this after a lot of deliberation, "Liao Qichang, the head of Jiangnan County, had contacted me many times when he was in the imperial capital. After I returned to the northwest, he also I once sent someone to contact me by letter, and I also know that he has a close relationship with the common people in Jiangnan and even Donghai counties who established businesses in commerce. This man has a very deep city, and he has hinted several times that if there is a major change in the situation of the empire, he is willing to support me with the strength of Jiangnan ~IndoMTL.com~ Oh?" The confidential matter was also revealed to him, obviously taking himself as the core figure. Su Qin was also agitated after being shocked, trying to calm down, he asked carefully: "Then what is the other party's condition?"
There is no love for no reason in the world, and there is no hatred for no reason. Since the other party promises such a big benefit, there must be something attached to it, but with the current embarrassment of the Northwest, such temptation is really hard to refuse.
"Well, he didn't say it clearly, but I guess since he represents the power of the common people, he probably wants to abolish the political privileges of the nobles, at least asking the common people to share political privileges with the nobles, maybe even There are other specific conditions, the situation was uncertain at the time, and I didn’t know if I could escape in the imperial capital, so I can only answer vaguely, so now I want you Jiangnan and his party to get a good feel for him.”
Su Qin nodded silently. This is actually a strategic alliance, but now it seems that this alliance is only superficial and has no real meaning. After all, Jiangnan and Northwest are at the two ends of the empire. It is too early to say, of course, this also requires the joint efforts of both parties, and as the situation changes, the superficial things can be realized.
"Situ Yuan is now ordered to inspect the two counties in the East China Sea and Jiangnan. There are no allies around, and the Kingdom of Milan in the south is still the sphere of influence of Situ Yuan's matriarchal family. It can be said that Liao Qichang's current situation is not good. At this time, maybe our arrival can give him a glimmer of hope." Wufeng said slowly.
