"Everyone, hold your breath! Press your noses with your sleeves. There is colorless and odorless stun powder here, scattered around. Leave here first!" Yan Ruozhen realized what it was and quickly asked everyone to do as she said.
They came to a creek with a waterfall, washed their faces with the water of the creek, and rested here temporarily.
"Master Ghost Doctor, how are they?" the head guard came over and asked.
Yan Ruozhen was giving acupuncture to the two guards who had fainted just now, and said: "It's okay, they will wake up in a while." She pulled up the sleeve of one of them to check, and found that there was something very sticky on the sleeve.
The fine white powder, presumably, was what they got when they used their hands to push away the forked trees blocking the road.
"Then do we still have to go back to find Doctor Zi?" the captain of the guard asked.
"No need for now, just wait here for him to show up." Yan Ruocheng smiled and said confidently.
"Is this? Will he really appear on his own? Why are you so sure?" the captain of the guard asked doubtfully.
"Don't ask so many questions yet. The water here is very cool. Let's take off our shoes together and stretch our feet into the water to wash them." Yan Ruocheng said as he took off his shoes.
She took the lead and asked the guards to follow her in a mysterious behavior. Everyone looked left and right, soaking their feet in the cold stream.
While they were joking and joking, a stone flew towards the water level next to Yan Ruocheng, spraying water all over her body.
A man carrying a medicine basket slowly walked over. He was wearing a gray gentleman's uniform and was polite and polite.
"Can you get out of the water? Your feet are so dirty that the water in the stream has been muddied by you." He said angrily.
"The stream flows from top to bottom and will never stop. Why is the young master so angry?" Yan Ruocheng came over and said to him.
The young man stared at Yan Ruocheng angrily and explained: "There is a small pool downstream of the creek, and there is a rare pink lotus growing in it. It needs very clean creek water to survive. So come out quickly.
!”
"Well, since it is a rare pink lotus leaf that can pollute the water quality, everyone should come out quickly and apologize to Doctor Zi's apprentice." Yan Ruocheng said with a smile.
"Girl, what are you talking about?" The young man denied very calmly.
Yan Ruocheng tiptoed out of the water, walked to him quietly, and whispered: "Doctor Zi, it would be more appropriate for me to call you this way, but you don't want others to see your true face.
I can also cooperate with you."
The young master raised the corner of his mouth, glanced at her sideways, and said: "Girl, I think you have mistaken the person. I am not the disciple of Doctor Zi as you mentioned, and I don't even know who Doctor Zi is. However, this back mountain has its owner."
, used to cultivate some rare medicinal herbs.”
"There are so many rare herbs, and I want to pick some back. Since this young master is just passing by, don't bother us. Guards, let's go to the top of the mountain to pick the white dew that absorbs the essence of the sun and moon. Pick it and bring it back to His Highness.
Replenish yourself." After Yan Ruocheng finished speaking, he turned to leave, but was grabbed by the young master's hand.
"How do you know there is white dew on the top of the mountain?" the young master asked sinisterly.
Yan Ruocheng said with a wicked smile: "You guessed it. If you guess it is right, let me climb up and see."
The young man immediately changed his mind and said, "I suddenly remembered who you said Doctor Zi was. Come with me. He should be in the garden in front."
"Hehe, if you had thought of it earlier, you almost made me climb to the top of the mountain." She patted him on the shoulder with a wicked smile and said.
With a straight face, the young master shook off her hand and led the way.
He led them to a courtyard. The young master went in first, and then asked an old uncle to pass the news and asked the guards to wait outside. Only Yan Ruocheng was allowed to go in.
Yan Ruocheng asked the guards to stay outside and go in to see the situation.
The old uncle took her to the living room to sit down, and then Doctor Zi came out of the side hall.
"Girl, what do you want from me?"
"Is it necessary to disguise yourself and show it to me?" Yan Ruocheng asked in confusion.
"It's necessary! If you have something to say, just say it, don't waste time." He said angrily.
"Let me get back to the topic, Doctor Zi. I came to you because I want you to help me look at the eldest prince. I know that your bone-setting skills are very good, so I want you to help him straighten the bones of his feet." Yan Ruocheng requested.
said.
Doctor Zi looked her over and said, "You are his medical servant, why are you here asking for help?"
"Actually, it's because I'm not strong enough to move the bone in the sole of my foot, and it's always inaccurate, causing him pain for a long time. Doctor Zi, please help me." Yan Ruocheng said, scratching his head.
"Okay. I'll help you go see him. But there's a condition." Doctor Zi narrowed his eyes and said.
"What conditions?"
"The condition is that you don't tell anyone that you have seen my real face. I have to keep the old man's disguise and not be discovered." He smoothed the fake beard with his hand and said.
"Why? In fact, if you stay with the second prince in your true appearance, he will value you more." Yan Ruozhen asked in confusion.
"Don't ask so many questions. Anyway, you agree to this condition first, otherwise, I won't help you."
"Okay, I'll keep it a secret."
"What do you call that girl?"
"Doctor Zi, you can call me Ruocheng, and my surname is Yan."
"Ruozhi, that's a good name, why are you pretending to be an ugly girl?" He also saw right away that her birthmark was fake.
Yan Ruocheng smiled and said: "Maybe like you, I don't like others to know my true face, so let's just be each other. There's no need to explain this. Each of us has our own reasons."
"Okay, let's go and see your eldest prince." Doctor Zi said with a chuckle.
At noon, Yan Ruocheng took Doctor Zi back to the house, and the two of them went into Huang Fengmo's wing.
"Your Highness, Doctor Zi is here." She went over first to help Huang Fengmo.
"Hiss..." Huang Fengmo leaned in her arms in pain.
Doctor Zi observed Huang Fengmo and said, "Your Highness, you may have injured more than just your foot."
When he hit the mark, Yan Ruocheng said with some embarrassment: "Doctor Zi, you are right."
She first asked Huang Fengmo in a low voice: "Your Highness, do you want Doctor Zi to take a look? His medical skills are even more powerful than those of a villain."
Huang Fengmo asked softly: "Do you think I should show it to him?" Instead, he asked her opinion.
Yan Ruozhen nodded and said, "It's best to let him take a look. You're in so much pain that you can't sit still. Maybe it won't hurt if he touches you."
Huang Fengmo hesitated for a moment and then decided: "Okay, but you have to hold me and don't let go."
"I know, I will hold His Highness the whole time." Yan Ruocheng said with a smile.
"Ahem! Your Highness, I wonder if I can start the examination?" Doctor Zi stared at their quarrel and asked impatiently.
"Okay, uh, Doctor Zi, please help His Highness take a look at his position first. It seems to have been accidentally twisted." Yan Ruocheng pointed to the holy land with some embarrassment and said awkwardly.
Doctor Zi had already seen that even if she didn't point it out, he would know where the problem was.
"Okay. The villain will check them one by one."
After putting down the medicine box, he sat on the edge of the bed, pulled up his sleeves, then reached into the holy place and touched it gently.
"Hiss! Ah!" Huang Fengmo groaned in pain at the slight touch, his head pressed against Yan Ruocheng's neck, and he clenched his teeth.
"Doctor Zi, what's going on with His Highness?" Yan Ruocheng asked worriedly.
"It's a bit serious. I'm not sure. Your Highness, can you let me untie it and take a look?" Doctor Zi speculated.
Huang Fengmo nodded slightly in agreement.
Doctor Zi gently helped him untie the belt of his shank coat, and took it off to see what was going on inside.
When he saw it, he frowned and said, "It is indeed crooked, and it's very crooked. How did it happen?"
Yan Ruozhen really didn't have the face to explain this, so he just urged: "Doctor Zi, you'd better help His Highness to treat it quickly. He is in severe pain."
"Okay, Your Highness, you have to endure the pain. Miss Ruozhen, you also have to hold her tighter." Doctor Zi reminded me.
Yan Ruocheng immediately hugged Huang Fengmo tightly and got ready.
Doctor Zi directly stretched out his hand to grasp the center point of the holy land, held the bottom, pulled hard, and lifted it up.
"Ah——!" Huang Fengmo's scream was deafening.
Yan Ruozhen heard some ringing in her ears. He was leaning against her neck and shouting.
Fortunately, Huang Fengmo fainted after shouting.
"Hey, your Highness fainted, you don't need to hug him so tightly. Were you deafened just now?" Doctor Zi said jokingly while applying medicine.
"Doctor Zi, you should remind me to plug my ears. I really have tinnitus." Yan Ruozhen said, rubbing his innocent ears.
"Your Highness needs to apply medicine here and rest for a while. It may be very painful when urinating and he needs your help. However, looking at the close relationship between you and him, it should be fine."
Doctor Zi will explain the subsequent care.
"Well, actually, His Highness and I are not very close. It's not the kind of relationship you think. However, I will help him." Yan Ruocheng said helplessly.
"No, why do I think you two are so close, hugging each other so tightly?" Doctor Zi asked puzzledly.
"Doctor Zi, you should continue to set the bones on the soles of his feet. It's hard to explain things clearly between him and me. Anyway, it's not what you think for the time being." Yan Ruocheng touched Huang Fengmo's handsome face, feeling a little confused.
Said regretfully.
"Things between men and women can never be explained clearly. This is right." Doctor Zi shook his head and said, and went over to untie the white cloth strips from Huang Fengmo's injured foot.
Afterwards, Lisuo helped his sole to realign one bone, and then used the same method as last time to fix the entire sole of his foot.
"It's done. When he wakes up, give him this bottle of painkillers. Five pills at a time, once an hour." He handed Yan Ruocheng a bottle of pills.
"Okay, thank you, Doctor Zi." Yan Ruocheng took the pill bottle.
"Yes, please pay for the two thousand eight hundred taels of medicine." Doctor Zi spread his hands and collected the treatment fee.
"Scared? So expensive?" Yan Ruocheng was a little frightened. This is a sky-high medical fee.
"If not, just make a deposit first and pay it another day." Doctor Zi didn't say much, just took out the red clay, printed the handprint of Huang Feng ink on the debt note, and wrote a piece of paper for Yan Ruocheng.
