Chapter 28
Niushui Gang knew there was another dinner at night and was very happy.
The food was ready soon, and the family sat around the canteen for dinner. Su Jinsong packed a bowl of vegetables for Qiu Wuhen, as if he was afraid that he would not have enough food. Qiu Wuhen said she didn't listen and looked at him with a smile and said, "My husband should eat more. The older man had no energy to work. Although he didn't have to go to the field, I think the physical energy he consumed for treating people is not as easy as those farmers working in the fields! Only by eating more can you be energetic."
Qiu Wuhen thought for a while and said, "After I finished my meal, we were going out with the Niushui Gate. There was one who came to the hospital and it would probably take all night and would not come back tomorrow morning, so don't worry."
When everyone heard this, they stopped looking at him.
Grandmother Su asked with some concern: "Who is it? Why do you have to see a doctor at night? Can't you go there during the day?"
"The patient is very anxious. It may be delayed during the day, so you have to go overnight to rest assured. This bright world is peaceful and there will be no trouble."
The doctor often visits people at night, which is the truth. However, the Su family didn’t open a clinic for a long time before, and the scholar’s medical skills were not very good, and he had almost never encountered anyone who needed to go to the night for emergency treatment at night. This was the first time.
Although everyone was mentally prepared, they still felt a little uneasy, especially Su Jinsong, but they also felt that it was not good to let her husband go. They all said it was an emergency room and could not be delayed.
Grandmother Su explained: "Since you are preparing some food and drink for your husband, and prepare a lantern."
The second and third aunts agreed, and they went to prepare separately, but they didn't even bother to eat.
Soon he was ready and put it in a small backpack and handed it to the Niu Shui Gate. Su Jinsong stared at the Niu Shui Gate and said, "I'm so happy to take care of your master."
"Don't worry, Master, I will."
After dinner, the sun had already set. Although the sun had already appeared for a day, the snow had almost melted, and it became even colder.
Su Jinsong sent Qiu Wuhen and the others to the outside of the yard and said to Qiu Wuhen: "What should you do if you are wearing such thin clothes? I discussed with the old lady, why not sell some rice and change it to make a jacket for you. You often have to go out for medical treatment. It's better to be at home, but you will freeze to death when you go out."
Qiu Wuhen said, "It's okay, I'm warm! You didn't know last night."
Su Jinsong couldn't help but feel very shy. He glanced at Niu Shui Gang who was standing aside and whispered: "What are you talking nonsense? Your apprentice is still by your side."
"I didn't say anything! Okay, I'm leaving."
Qiu Wuhen took a Niushui Gang and carried a lantern along the mountain road and walked all the way to the county town.
The sky was completely dark, and there were only a few stars in the sky, most of which could not be seen.
The sky changed as soon as the night came. The reason why I couldn't see the stars in the sky was because the sky was already covered by dark clouds. The wind blew, which was very harsh, making the lantern sway.
Fortunately, this kind of lantern is called the qi-death wind lamp. Although it is worn out, it is very useful. Generally, the wind cannot be blown away, and it has a strong windproof effect. Unfortunately, the light can only illuminate so far below your feet, and even the trees next to the road cannot be illuminated.
They had to be careful because they were climbing hills and falling down the hills along the way, and if they were not careful, they would step on the air and fall down the hillside.
Finally, I went down to the foot of the mountain, passed through several ridges, and then I got on the official road.
Walking further along the official road, you will reach the county town for a short while. It took about two hours in total. After all, the speed of walking at night is not fast, and by the time they arrive outside the county town, it is already late at night.
Qiu Wuhen didn't know where the grave was. He originally wanted to ask the medicine gourd in his head, but Niu Shui Gang asked first: "Master, there is the county town ahead. Are we going to the city?"
"We're going to the graveyard, do you know?"
Qiu Wuhen decided to ask his apprentice first.
Niu Shui Gang immediately said, "I know, I just have to climb over the mountain in front."
"You lead the way, let's go there."
Niu Shui Gang was frightened, his voice trembled, and he said, "Master, why are we going there?"
"If you want to lead the way, you can lead the way. Why do you ask so many questions? Didn't you say that? Don't ask questions in any way."
"Okay Master, then come with me."
He walked in front with a lantern, illuminating Qiu Wuhen behind him, leading the way and heading to the cemetery.
This road is lacking maintenance all year round, and wild dogs come out from time to time, looking at them with shiny eyes, some shouting, and some just watching.
The bullshui jar had already grabbed a stone in his hand.
At this moment, Niu Shui Gang suddenly stopped and said to Qiu Wuhen in horror: "Master, there seems to be a ghost in front of you!"
"What the hell is there? Aren't you a ghost? - Coward!"
"There is really a ghost, Master, you see, you are squatting next to the tomb door of the tomb in front!"
Niushuigan said while retreating.
Qiu Wuhen looked carefully and saw something squatting beside the tombstone. Of course, as a forensic doctor, he would not believe the sayings of ghosts and gods, so he walked over as if nothing had happened. The thing jumped up and ran away, but it turned out to be a hare.
Niu Shui Gang also saw it clearly, then calmed down a little, got up and said, "It turned out to be a hare, I was scared to death. I thought it was a ghost, and I was squatting there and panting!"
"Gasping? Did this ghost climb the 18th floor of stairs?"
Niu Shui Gon was so scared that he shivered again: "Master, you can't joke about ghosts. - Oh! Master, there are ghosts over there too! It's floating there!"
His voice was obviously trembling, not like he was pretending.
This made Qiu Wuhen a little surprised. He followed his hand and was shocked when he saw that something was indeed floating not far away, as if it was a ghost fire.
If it was really a ghost fire, Qiu Wuhen would certainly not be afraid, because it was just that the corpses in the cemetery rotted and turned into phosphine. The ignition point was very low, and they could be spontaneously ignited and formed in the air. They could be explained by scientific phenomena, not really anything.
But the ghost fire I saw in front of me was different. It seemed to be whiter and kept falling from the sky instead of floating in the spot.
Qiu Wuhen suddenly felt his heart moving, and the ghost fire was floating in the air. Why did the ghost fire fall from above? Did the ghost jump from the sky?
He quickly looked up and a piece of things fell down, falling on his face.
I reached out to wipe it and couldn't help but laugh, but it turned out to be snow falling from the sky.
It’s snowing!
At this time, Niushui Gate also discovered that it was not the ghost fire that was floating, but the snowflakes falling from the sky. He carefully grabbed a snowflake from his fist, glanced at it and said, "I'm scared to death. I thought it was haunted! It turned out that it was snowing."
Qiu Wuhen smiled and said, "This is better. If the ghost crawls out of the grave after it snows, we can immediately discover it and catch the ghost smoothly."
Niu Shui Gang almost cried when he heard this and said, "Master, don't bring such a scary person. Wouldn't we really come here to catch ghosts, right?"
"You're right, we're here to catch ghosts."
Qiu Wuhen was lying nonsense, and the head of the runny water tank was missing. He immediately believed it and said with a sad face: "Master, I understand why you didn't treat Master Xiahou immediately. It's because Master Xiahou was caught in an evil spirit. You have to go to the cemetery to expel ghosts. Can you cure his illness by exorcising ghosts after exorcising ghosts and using medicine?"
Qiu Wuhen was stunned for a moment, but he didn't expect that his stupid disciple could come up with such a truth. Since he was willing to think so, then just do it. At least he could satisfy his sense of accomplishment in the success of reasoning.
Qiu Wuhen asked the medicine gourd in his head: "Can I stay anywhere?"
The Medicine Hulu did not answer. They had already walked to the center of the grave, but they still didn't respond.
So Qiu Wuhen asked again: "Brother Hulu, I'm here to burial graves. It's very windy and snowy. Where can I stay?"
The Medicine Gourd has no words and does not show up in his mind.
Qiu Wuhen thought about it for a while. Generally, this situation means that his question is that Yao Hulu is disdainful or unwilling to answer it because the question is too stupid.
If you think about it carefully, your problem is really unnecessary, because the previous task of the Medicine Gourd was very clear. You can spend one night at the chassis outside the county town, which means you only need to stay for one night, and you don’t have to do anything else.
As for where you are staying in the cemetery, the medicinal gourd has not given clear requirements, so naturally there is no need to consider it. Why ask?
So Qiu Wuhen walked up to a grave and looked around, confirming where they were going to stay.
