Chapter 79: Apricot Grove Family
I looked over to the side of the counter and saw a door inside, thinking that Xie Chen must be hiding inside.
The girl saw through my thoughts, raised her hands and said: "There is a residence behind, and patients are not allowed to enter casually."
"I did see someone come in just now." I insisted on my statement.
"Then you may have seen a ghost. However, you may also be suffering from hysteria, epilepsy, schizophrenia and other diseases, and your eyes are hallucinating. I will give you a prescription and some Chinese medicine to adjust it." The girl said, picking up the pen and writing
Write the prescription on the prescription pad.
Damn, what kind of Chinese medicine are you talking about? You can’t see clearly what’s going on with me, let alone the other three aspects, so you can conclude that I have these kinds of problems.
"Don't prescribe medicine, I'm not sick."
"Then you must have schizophrenia. Generally, patients like this don't realize that they are sick," the girl said while writing.
If your uncle doesn't blossom, then you are schizophrenic. I hurriedly said: "Forget it, forget it, I'm leaving." This man couldn't look for him any longer. He couldn't find anyone, so don't make this guy really schizophrenic.
After I left the house, I looked back and saw that the girl was covering her mouth and smiling. When I caught my gaze, the girl immediately put away her smile, lowered her head and picked up the phone again.
Seeing this situation, my brother's lungs nearly exploded. This girl was clearly playing tricks on me. Xie Chen must be inside. And this girl has something to do with him. She hid him inside and blocked all those who wanted to find him.
The dead girl laughed at this time and said: "You are so stupid, you were fooled by a stupid girl."
I stood on the side of the road, feeling annoyed, so I said to her, "Aren't you just a little girl who always teases me?"
"Is your skin itchy again?"
"The soles of my feet are itchy and I really want to scratch them!"
"You... ungrateful bastard, I should have known better that I shouldn't have told you this!" The damn girl was so angry that it was as if her face turned green when she heard the voice.
"When did I become ungrateful?" I said as I walked towards a noodle shop across the street. "I just said it. I really want to drive you away. Will I tell you?"
"You can't say it, I'm a petty person." Unexpectedly, she admitted that she was petty and almost made her brother laugh.
"You are not human..."
"You are not human!"
"You are a ghost."
"You are a pig!"
It’s noon now, so I’m just in time to have something to eat. I’m staring at the clinic opposite, and my buddies are having fun with them. I went into the noodle shop and ordered a big bowl of beef noodles. This is a famous Anhui food. Southerners can eat chili peppers, and the noodles are all delicious.
There is a layer of red chili oil. As a northerner who likes chili, I almost shed tears after taking a few bites, but the taste is quite good.
I deliberately sat facing out, so that I could see the situation in the outpatient clinic opposite. The girl was not looking at her phone now, and was staring at the door. After a while, she didn't seem to notice anything else.
He got up and entered the inner door.
Just when I was thinking about whether I should take the opportunity to break in and take a look behind the scenes as the outpatient clinic was unattended at the moment, I heard someone calling and saying: "The man named Xie has been found. He traveled all the way from Shaanxi and now he's in Handan. I'm staring at him."
Follow his whereabouts."
I felt a shiver in my heart. This man also came to see Xie Chen. His accent sounded like he was from Luoyang. He must be a bodyguard sent by the Xiao family. I pretended not to look back and glanced at this man. He was about thirty years old and had a stern look on his face.
His expression, as can be seen from his sharp gaze, is definitely not that of an ordinary person.
This person didn't pay any attention to my presence. He hummed a few times on his phone, hung up, paid the bill, and strode towards the opposite clinic.
I thought in my heart that I couldn't let the other party take Xie Chen back, and I wanted to find out the truth about Mo Xi from him. I threw ten dollars on the table, got up and followed him out. At this time, the clinic was still empty, except for the one in front of me.
After the man entered, he entered the back door without hesitation. I followed closely, rushed in and opened the door. Before my front feet even touched the ground, I heard the dead girl shouting: "Back off, hold your breath..."
During this period of time, my buddy was practicing very smartly. As soon as he heard the dead girl's warning, he immediately backed away. I saw a white mist spreading in front of my eyes. At the same time, I also covered my mouth and nose with my hands. The white mist was hazy.
, I saw a person lying on the ground in front of me, it seemed that he was the guy who just came in.
Damn, this white mist is probably caused by drugs!
The white mist quickly dissipated with the wind, and I discovered that there was a small courtyard behind the door, and this girl stood in the middle of the courtyard with her hands on her hips, staring at me coldly.
"In a moment, come with me, our old man wants to see you!" The girl shook her head at me and first entered a bungalow on the north side.
Who is the old immortal? It can't be Xie Chen's nickname? I walked into the small courtyard full of doubts and stepped over the unconscious bodyguard. I asked the dead girl with lip language: "Do you think we should go in?
have a look?
"How can you catch tiger cubs if you don't enter the tiger's den? Come in!" said the dead girl.
This sentence makes sense, but entering the tiger's den may not necessarily lead to the tiger's cubs. So I bit the bullet and entered the bungalow. The first thing I saw was a very old plaque hanging on the wall of the door, with four beautiful regular characters on it:
"Xinglin Family"!
This is a living room. The furniture is a bit old, but it is spotlessly clean. An old man with a white beard, who looks to be at least eighty years old, is sitting on an Eight Immortals chair facing the door. He looks quite old, but his face is rosy, and he has a pair of
The black eyes are very clear and look particularly energetic.
The girl put a cup of tea on the ancient Eight Immortals table and said, "Sit down, you talk to the old man first, and I'll take care of the pig outside!" After that, she went out.
This made me feel quite puzzled. The old man she was talking about was either Xie Chen or the old man in front of me. What kind of relationship do they have? She kept calling her Lao Immortal, but the old man wasn't angry at all.
The old man looked at me, stroking his beard and grinning, with no teeth in his mouth. The old man said kindly: "Little brother, sit down, you're welcome."
Seeing how easy-going the old man was, I gave up my worries and sat down on the Eight Immortals chair on the left.
Just when he was about to ask him about Xie Chen, the old man pointed to the plaque above his head and said, "You see, we are from the Xinglin family. Our ancestors have opened medical clinics here since the time of Emperor Qianlong. Because of their superb medical skills, they have been admitted to
The palace examined Emperor Qianlong's illness, and this plaque is a personal letter written by Emperor Qianlong." He stroked his white beard and squinted his eyes quite intoxicated.
I understand the Xinglin family, which is a family of traditional Chinese medicine. As for whether the words on this plaque were written by Emperor Qianlong himself, it's hard to say. I'm not here to collect antiques. Besides, the old man may not be willing to sell the emperor's calligraphy.
Just when I was about to speak, the old man started talking again. Shit, I haven't said a word since I came in until now.
"Drink tea. It contains wolfberry, cassia, chrysanthemum, lily, fleece-flower root, soothing wind and heat, relieving heat, nourishing the eyes, and replenishing essence and blood." The old man closed his eyes slightly and explained the effects of these things soaked in it.
I don’t care what the hell, the beef pan noodles braised meat is quite salty, so I picked up the tea bowl and took a few sips, but there were only Chinese medicine residues left in it. The medicinal smell was very strong, and it tasted salty and sour.
"How is it? Does it taste good?" the old man asked with his eyes wide open.
