Early spring of the second year of Xingping, Juancheng.

A carriage slowly left the city surrounded by several horses. Peach blossoms were in full bloom and spring was full of joy.

Jishan was the destination for the brothers. In addition to Cao Cao's sons and daughters, Xia Houmao and the newly married Cao Xiu couple also went there together.

Because Xiahou Dun suffered an eye injury, Xiahou Dun returned to Juancheng with his father. Xiahou Dun was very concerned about his appearance. Whenever he saw his blind appearance through a bronze mirror, he would be extremely depressed. This inferiority complex was also contagious.

It happened to Xia Houmao. Fortunately, Cao Pi and Cao Zhen brought him out together this time.

The only thing Xia Houmao is happy about now is that Cao Yun, whom he misses day and night, is currently sitting in the carriage teasing Cao Zhi, with a beautiful woman by his side, so as to relieve his sorrow.

Cao Pi once thought about making some springs to cushion the carriage, but today's metal springs do not have a particularly good cushioning effect, and Cao Pi didn't know how to improve it, so in the end he could only leave it alone.

"Zilin, what's wrong with you?" Xia Houmao suddenly covered his abdomen, his face was painful, Cao Zhen asked hurriedly upon seeing this.

"My stomach hurts. I'm afraid I did too many sit-ups yesterday. What should I do?" Xia Houmao replied.

"Then stop riding and sit in the car first." Cao Shuo suggested.

"That's very good." Xia Houmao got off his horse and staggered onto the carriage.

Cao Pi saw Xia Houmao being so pretentious but did not expose him. How could sit-ups have such sequelae?

Cao Pi knew Xiahou Mao’s intentions well.

"Brother, I want to ride Brother Zilin's horse." Cao Zhang said expectantly after seeing the vacated horse.

Cao Zhang sat astride Cao Ang. Cao Zhang didn't want to stay in the car and couldn't ride a horse, so Cao Ang took him with him. Xia Houmao's pretending to be sick actually created a win-win situation.

"Brother, just let Ziwen try it. We can just watch him from the side." Cao Pi suggested as he saw Cao Ang hesitate.

"That's fine." Cao Zhang looked at Cao Pi with grateful eyes for the first time. He happily sat on the horse with the help of Cao Ang. Cao Ang deliberately slowed down to keep pace with Cao Zhang.

"Zihuan, how are the results of the things you have made recently?" Cao Shuo asked.

"Second brother, please don't mention Zihuan's sadness." Cao Zhen replied.

Cao Pi has been idle since his inventions at the end of the year. It's not that he lost interest in those things, but because his uncle Cao De put pressure on Cao Cao.

Cleverness is just a little cleverness. Pursuing great wisdom in classics and historical books is the right path.

Cao Pi had no choice but to leave everything to Lao Yu and his colleagues. If Cao Pi wanted to know the progress of Luban's workshop, he could only ask Shi A. Cao Pi was helpless.

"Uncle Ji filed a complaint with Daddy. It's difficult for Zihuan and I to enter the Luban Workshop." Cao Zhen explained to Cao Shuo helplessly. Cao Shuo had been hanging around Xi Zhicai and Zao Zhi recently, so he didn't want to enter the Luban Workshop.

Learn about Cao Pi’s current situation.

"Why is Uncle Ji so unreasonable? The things Zihuan makes can not only strengthen the body, but also educate the people through entertainment. Those tenants even held a sandbag competition last month." Cao Shuo complained.

"There is nothing we can do about this. If I had known this, I would not have skipped class." Cao Pi looked regretful.

"There is an evil tiger hurting people!" Cao Zhang's cry attracted everyone's attention. Not far in front of them, a young tiger was crouching in front of a carriage. There was only an old man with gray hair and an old man on the carriage.

A thin man.

Tigers in the late Eastern Han Dynasty were not protected animals. As the saying goes, "the post roads were infested with tigers, making travel impassable." Since the forests were man-made destruction, the living environment of wild beasts became smaller and smaller, so it was not uncommon for tigers to harass passers-by.

Cao Pi took out his bow and arrow and shot the horse out. The tiger was fierce, as if it was charging into the chariot. Cao Pi found the right angle and shot an arrow. The arrow scratched the tiger's forehead, and the word "king" on the big tiger's forehead was dyed red with blood.

The beautiful tiger cub was also very humane. It gave up on the passers-by on the carriage and turned towards Cao Pi. Just as Cao Pi was about to shoot the second arrow with his bow, the evil tiger had already rushed in front of Cao Pi.

"Zihuan, be careful!"

Cao Pi gave up his horse in desperation. He jumped off the horse. The powerful impact caused him to fall several times before he could land. However, Cao Pi's mount was thrown to the ground by the young tiger. It had an extra

There are tooth marks everywhere, and blood is gushing out.

Fortunately, it fell in a muddy area. If it fell on an ordinary road, it would probably break his arm. Before Cao Pi could think about it, the evil tiger seemed to be stimulated by the blood and continued to bite at Cao Pi.

.

Cao Pi pulled out the Gentleman's Sword from his waist. At the moment when the tiger leaped, Cao Pi grasped the hilt of the sword with both hands and stabbed upward. The blade of the sword penetrated the tiger's abdomen, cutting out a long bloody gash. The tiger's dark green eyes

Suddenly losing its luster, Cao Pi dodged to avoid it, but was still crushed in the mud by the tiger's corpse.

"Zihuan, are you okay?" The brothers rushed to Cao Pi and asked repeatedly.

"It hurts..." Cao Pi was pulled up from the tiger's body by Cao Ang and others. Cao Pi was sore and covered in mud. His clothes were in tatters, but fortunately he only suffered minor scratches.

If it were an adult tiger, it would be dead. Fortunately, it was a cub...

"You are so reckless every time." Cao Ang was shocked and educated Cao Pi. Cao Pi could not change his impulsiveness, so he had to listen to Cao Ang's scolding.

"I would like to thank you for saving your life." The speaker was the pair of passers-by whom Cao Pi saved. They thought they were going to die today, but unexpectedly they were saved by a young man. They couldn't help but sigh that since ancient times, heroes have emerged from young.<

/p>

"You're welcome, sir." Cao Pi responded politely.

After everyone talked, Cao Pi learned that the thin man was called Fan A, and that the white-haired old man was his master. They planned to go to Xuzhou to visit old friends.

Fan and A also wanted to pass through Jishan, so they all walked together. Cao Pi lost his mount, and Cao Zhang was reluctantly driven back to Cao Ang.

Fan A knew some medical skills, so he simply bandaged Cao Pi with a coarse cloth. Cao Pi found that Fan A's skills were very good, much better than the bandaging skills of the soldiers he had seen.

"Mr. Fan, have you ever learned how to bandage?" Cao Pi asked curiously.

"These skills of mine were all taught by my master." Fan A replied shyly.

Cao Pi originally thought that the old man was Fan A's classics and history teacher, but it turned out that the two were Xinglin's master and apprentice. Cao Pi secretly slandered that saving a life was better than building a seven-level pagoda. Saving the doctor's life was considered a great merit.

Brother Tiger, it’s not that I, Cao Pi, am ungrateful. If you were born more than a thousand years later, I would definitely not be like this. Please forgive me.

"Master, do you want to learn these things?" Fan A asked after seeing Cao Pi's silence.

"Sir, are you willing to teach me?" Cao Pi asked curiously.

"Young Master saved my life. If these trivial methods can help you, I, Fan A, can be considered as repaying my kindness." Fan A's words made Cao Pi fall into deep thought.

The status of doctors in this era is really low. If we can find people like Hua Tuo and Zhang Zhongjing to open a medical clinic to teach students, we may be able to save many lives.

"Then please leave it to sir." Cao Pi replied.

It was getting late, and there was no shelter around. Everyone found a clean place to set up camp and rest, which was a bit like camping in later generations.

Cao Zhen and Xia Houmao found dry branches and built a bonfire. Cao Ang and Cao Pi took care of the tiger. Everyone sat around the bonfire and ate game together. Master Fan A was also invited by Cao Pi, but perhaps his master

It was because of his age that he declined Cao Pi's invitation.

After some noisy fun, everyone dispersed to rest. Cao Pi found Fan A and planned to learn some basic medical knowledge. Although Fan A and his party would be separated from Cao Pi and his party tomorrow, it was better to prepare some life-saving means.

Cao Pi's understanding of traditional Chinese medicine only limited to the four words "seeing, hearing, asking, and cutting". Under Fan A's description, Cao Pi had a general understanding of the medical capabilities in the late Eastern Han Dynasty, and he also learned some ways to prevent diseases.

Ignorant people are fearless, but when Cao Pi knew that the probability of a patient's recovery was slim, he paid a lot more attention to the prevention of diseases.

"Mr. Fan, can the talisman water of Taiping Dao really save people?" Cao Pi once heard Geng Liang and other Taiping Sect old disciples boast about the talisman water so much that it was so magical. Now that a serious doctor was around, Cao Pi wanted to satisfy himself.

Curiosity.

"...It's true." Fan A replied hesitantly. After all, he was promoting Taiping Dao in disguise. If others heard these words, there would be a lot of trouble.

"Can talisman water save people? Does the great sage Zhang Jiao really know medical skills?" Cao Pi got an unexpected answer.

"I don't know if he has medical skills, but the talisman water can indeed cure diseases and save people. Those Taiping Tao believers use a special method to bake various herbs on the talisman paper." Fan A replied.

.

Cao Pi felt that his knowledge had been subverted. He originally thought that Zhang Jiao was just a person who was good at deceiving the masses. He did not expect that Zhang Jiao was really using medical skills to save people. He was just using the name of magic to make the people treat him.

Just awe.

"However, the talisman water is not necessarily able to save people. There is still no solution for many more complicated symptoms." Fan A added.

A scream interrupted Cao Pi's thinking. He walked out of the tent with the Gentleman's Sword. The sight in front of him surprised him.
