Chapter 43: The Miracle Doctor Who Doesn't Know Medicine
It feels so good to ride a horse. Liu Qiankun rides the tall horse and stops and runs, the whip in his hand crackling, and the hem of his clothes fluttering in the wind is quite a bit like an ancient knight.
This was very painful for the two sergeants riding the same horse behind. The 'miracle doctor' in front seemed young, but his riding skills were top-notch. The usually stubborn and sturdy horse was as good as a house cat in his hands, and it galloped.
They didn't even sniff when they got up, but they seemed to be afraid of stepping on ants when they got up slowly. They were so tired that they gasped and moaned, and there was a burning pain between their legs.
Little did Liu Qiankun know that the mount he was riding was one of the most stubborn military horses in Fengtian County. Ordinary people would scratch their hooves and glare whenever they came near. Fortunately, the burdock who had been posted on the imperial list fed it for several years before he could barely ride on the horse.
, this fierce horse captured Liu Qiankun's vague dragon aura to become so docile, which surprised the burdock who was originally prepared to see him embarrassed. (If he had glasses!)
Fengtian County is one of the sixty-eight counties in the Tianxing Empire, and it is also the smallest in area. The county governor's surname is Zhou Mingda, and he is excellent in both civil and military skills. Unfortunately, he is upright and does not fit in with his colleagues, so he can only stay in Fengtian County.
Be a good person within yourself.
Zhou Da was immersed in front of the desk, sorting out a large pile of files submitted by various counties, when he suddenly heard a horse neighing from outside the door, eh! The high-pitched and wild cry was so familiar.
"Eh!" Zhou Da raised his head with a slight sigh and thought to himself: Wasn't this burdock sent to post the imperial list? Why did he return so quickly?
There is an unwritten rule in the Tianxing Empire. Any sergeant assigned to post the imperial list must guard it all night long and must not neglect food, drink or sleep until two other sergeants take over after seven days. This will be repeated until a hundred days later.
It can come to an end.
Just when Zhou Da was surprised, Niu Geng and another sergeant led a young man in white and walked in quickly. The half of the yellow silk roll slightly exposed in the young man's arms was so eye-catching.
Niu Geng knelt down on one knee and reported: "Today I was ordered to go to Fangju Town to post the imperial list. I met a man who claimed to be a miracle doctor and removed the imperial list. Now I have brought this person back." After saying this, he glanced at him from the corner of his eye.
He glanced at the yellow scroll in Liu Qiankun's arms.
"Oh!" Zhou Da couldn't help frowning as he looked at the majestic young man in front of him. He looked at him very carefully, from head to toe. The strange look made Liu Qiankun feel a chill down his back.
"I wonder who your master is?" Zhou Da asked tentatively.
"You can teach yourself without a teacher." Liu Qiankun answered happily.
"Is there any magic remedy?"
Liu Qiankun chuckled and shook his head.
Zhou Da extended his hand and pointed at a half-waist-high potted plant in the right corner of the hall and said, "Do you know what this is?"
Looking in the direction of his finger, this plant is very special. The plant resembles the most common small welcoming pine, but the leaves are the same as geraniums. There are white flowers blooming in the middle of the three or two leaves, which is similar to
The lotus flowers in the pond were quite similar, and there were a few green fruits in the center of the stamens. He couldn't help but think of those green and sour apricots, such a completely different plant.
This was the first time Liu Qiankun had seen this kind of plant in his life. It was probably a specialty, so he simply kept silent and looked around to admire the unique furnishings in the governor's mansion.
Zhou Da was stunned. This plant is the most common medicinal material in the north of the Tianxing Empire - lotus tree. The seeds obtained from this plant are dried in the shade and ground into powder. Taking it with water can resolve phlegm, relieve asthma, soothe the qi and calm the mind.
It also has miraculous effects on diseases such as headaches and brain fever, and it is one of the most common medicinal materials in the empire.
Because of its unique appearance, it hates sun and prefers shade, many ordinary people transplant it into their homes. The aroma it emits has a miraculous effect in repelling mosquitoes and ants.
Seeing the young man in front of him actually showing disdain, Zhou Da couldn't help but feel a little angry in his heart, and asked in a deep voice: "Do you know the usefulness of this thing?"
Liu Qiankun was straightforward. He raised his eyebrows and uttered three big words: "I don't know!" He simply raised his chin high and acted as if he should take it for granted.
Zhou Da was furious, his eyes widened and he shouted sternly: "Come here, tie up this arrogant and ignorant junior!"
Whoops! A dozen black-armored sergeants with swords rushed in from outside the door. Without saying a word, they rushed towards Liu Qiankun. But the burdock was the first to collapse on the ground, his face turned pale.
