Chapter 27 Departure Ngee Ann County(1/2)
Chapter 27 Departure to Ngee Ann County
When Jiu Xiaohan asked about Ngee An County, "Wolf Boy" was very reluctant to go to that place.
However, he must not show the slightest bit of reluctance; so, he deliberately pretended that it was too dark and he could not discern the direction of the mountain road at all.
However, Jiu Xiaohan naturally believed what he said.
After all, a "wild" child like Liang Ziyu, who has been wandering in the outskirts of barren mountains all year round, rarely has the opportunity to go out of the mountains alone and successfully enter the city.
Especially, it is a prosperous and prosperous frontier city like Ngee An County.
In addition, Jiu Xiaohan also thought about it:
I am afraid that even if he arrives at the gate of the city and county, he will be turned away by the guards because he does not have an officially recognized customs clearance certificate or a legal identification card.
outside.
Therefore, the young man said that he was indeed familiar with the name of Ngee Ann County, but he had never been there.
This is also reasonable.
What's more, this nameless mountain has dense bamboo forests, narrow and rugged trails, and intricate mountain roads.
Along the way, Jiu Xiaohan's focus is still on the rumored master of the Ninth World Hall:
"Oh... By the way, Ziyu, why do people call the Ninth World Master the 'Great Good Man from All Directions'?"
Jiu Xiaohan frowned slightly. Could it be God's will that made her and the person in the world most likely to help the master without reservation miss this opportunity?
However, her worries were not because she doubted Liang Ziyu, but because she was worried about an uncertain future.
"Wolf Boy" interrupted Jiu Xiaohan in time and said:
Let the hall master specifically diagnose and treat Huangfu Ruozhou, who suffered from old injuries and chronic diseases caused by years of battle, as well as rheumatism that has not healed for a long time. Each time such treatment takes at least two or three months.
After all, in this world, regardless of the level of medical skills, which dedicated and kind-hearted doctor is not interested in patients with "difficult and complicated diseases" and "rare and strange diseases"?
"It seems that their family members are seriously ill... they just want to seek treatment from the hall master!"
As for the Sanshi Village mentioned by Jiu Xiaohan, "Wolf Boy" has never heard of it.
The young man asked curiously,
Behind the boy, Jiu Xiaohan was always walking step by step. She followed his footsteps step by step and whispered to herself softly, which was very meaningful:
"You travel far and wide, loving charity?"
Then, he pointed to the south.
The master of the hall, no matter how much he likes to travel around the world, is often away from the main hall to take care of things. Is this...reasonable?
"Well! Master once told me that they have been close friends for many years. If it is convenient to go to Ngee Ann County from here, I would like to go and pay a visit to the master of the hall first and say hello...
Please inquire carefully about my master's latest whereabouts, and I can also take the opportunity to see you and prepare some medicinal materials, right?"
Although it is said that Master Wuweizi was poisoned by an inexplicable evil poison a few months ago, it can be traced back to the ruthless evil general Wu Sha; that poison is called "Gu Finger"
”.
Or maybe the master knew that he was really going to die soon, and he didn't want his old friend to worry about him, so he never told him.
At that time, if she is really lucky enough to meet the legendary Ninth World Hall master, how can she logically ask him to help her without revealing the details of the "Sacred Herbs and Medicines"?
A helping hand requires some timely strategies.
"Sister Xiaohan, you must never say the word 'Bodhisattva'!"
"Wolf Boy" hasn't had time to tell Jiu Xiaohan yet. Perhaps, he deliberately concealed this from her temporarily; he just wanted to confirm whether Jiu Xiaohan knew the hall master:
Even one of the three top imperial doctors in the famous palace of the imperial capital once followed the private instructions of the Ninth Five-Year Master and stayed at Qingxin Guan for several days to diagnose and treat Wuweizi.
"Sister Xiaohan, can Ziyu ask your sister? You really want to go to Nghe An County. Do you have something important to do?"
Jiu Xiaohan shook his head, smiled softly, and replied patiently:
The "wolf boy" who had been staying two or three steps in front of her was stunned for a moment when he heard her question. He thought for a while before answering her:
"Originally, I have been staying in this unknown mountain. I can't read or write, and I am very ignorant. Most of the interesting stories and trivial things are just heard from passers-by. Perhaps, the person I really know from Sister Xiaohan's master is
Dear friend of the hall master, there is something wrong!"
As for Jiu Xiaohan, she had always mistakenly believed that the Black Wolf Nameless Mountain mentioned by Liang Ziyu was the Qingxin Mountain where she had been living.
Even though Liang Ziyu sometimes appears in the mountains, he is more familiar with the surrounding environment than Jiu Xiaohan; however, the heavy snow leaves no trace, and the original routes leading to the outskirts of the mountain are all completely white.
▽▽▽▽
Like Liang Ziyu, are there people who suffer from "difficult and complicated diseases" like him?
In fact, Jiu Xiaohan has not encountered the second one in the past twenty years.
Therefore, Jiu Xiaohan planned to use the channels or connections of the Ninth World Hall Master to see if he could help him collect all the other seventy records recorded in the "Sacred Herbs and Medicines" in the shortest possible time.
Nine Rare Medicinal Materials.
"Exactly this person! I didn't expect that Ziyu had heard of him too?!"
The corners of his mouth turned up in beautiful arcs, Jiu Xiaohan smiled lightly and nodded:
"Okay, I'll listen to you! In the territory you are most familiar with, you must have a better sense of direction than me!"
"But my sister's master, the 'nameless' immortal who calls himself 'You'?"
In the market and word of mouth, the master of the Ninth World Hall is like a god who descended from the immortal path and has infinite abilities.
Although, at first glance, it sounds like there is nothing wrong with it.
"What Ziyu said is very reasonable!"
The two of them are very similar only in their most serious symptoms of confusion of will and dissociation of spiritual consciousness.
"Sister Xiaohan, the night view over there looks the most like the city that never sleeps. I guess it's where Ngee An County is, and it's definitely right. How about we go in that direction first and take a walk?!"
Instead, every year after winter, the Ninth World Hall master would be summoned by Huangfu Ruozhou, the city lord of Ngee An County, to his hot spring villa outside the city.
Jiu Xiaohan seemed to trust Liang Ziyu very, very much. At this time, she also respected his judgment and did not doubt him at all.
At the same time, the most important thing is:
The young man's face was filled with sincerity of gratitude and flattered joy, but when he heard Jiu Xiaohan beside him, he just said lightly:
"I'm not just doing it for you, but also for people like you who suffer from such difficult and complicated diseases."
Either the master and other senior brothers did invite him, but he had more important matters at that time and could not come;
And, the most crucial point.
Not long ago, there was another heavy snowstorm.
Naturally, Jiu Xiaohan should not be able to tell any outsiders about the relevant content.
The young man paused and continued to say slightly excitedly,
"In this aspect, he should be very similar to Sister Xiaohan's master! It can be seen that only two people who share the same goals can become close friends."
"Okay, Sister Xiaohan, I'll go ahead and help you find the way! Although your eyesight has recovered, you still have to move slowly. Just guess my footprints. This way, it's safer!"
However, even though the first half of the fragmentary "Sacred Herbs and Medicines" has been secretly taken out by Jiu Xiaohan, it still belongs to the "forbidden book" that Qingxin Temple has sealed for many years, and is a treasure of the temple.
"Huh? Those two farmers, how do they know that the hall master will not be in Ngee Ann County during these days?"
Whenever someone asks for help in times of crisis, he can always respond. More importantly, he does not seek any reward from anyone, including Huangfu Ruozhou, the city lord of Ngee An County who can take charge of one side and cover the whole world with one hand...
As he spoke, the "Wolf Boy" had already stepped out of the gate of Guanyin Temple with his two long and slender legs.
"Could it be that Sister Xiaohan is referring to the legendary good man from all directions, the Master of the Ninth World Hall?"
"oh……"
"Yeah! Just say it, that's it."
If she only has a simple diet, it doesn't matter whether she has enough food and clothing, a modest house in a side house, or accommodation for three to five days, I guess there won't be any problem.
In fact, she didn't know that the words of "Wolf Boy" were half true and half false.
"oh?"
However, Jiu Xiaohan always vaguely felt that it was not that simple. In other words, how could there be such a coincidence?
"It's not my master. It's just that before, in Sanshi Village where I live, every household has long spread that there is a "Victorious Guanyin", a living Bodhisattva in Ngee Ann County that has been passed down by word of mouth and praised by everyone...
!”
Jiu Xiaohan hurriedly followed behind.
Even if her voice is really small, it seems that if you don't pay attention, it will "melt" into the snow under your feet.
I saw the starry sky in the south of the mountain and the snow-covered foothills in the distance, looming like a brightly lit city.
Jiu Xiaohan stepped behind, looking at the big footprints that Liang Ziyu had just guessed, while silently writing down what he had just said.
"what's up?"
"I must seize the time to meet someone!"
