Nameless Ghost Doctor

Chapter 13

The two wandered around the city for a while, and were going to sit down in a tea house to rest for a while, have some lunch, and then move on.

"Xiao Er, let's watch tea." Just as the two of them sat down, they listened to the noise outside the door, Lin Xiyao was in a slightly better mood, but became depressed again, "Xiao Er."

"Come on, what do you want to order from the guest officer?" Hearing someone calling him, Xiao Er immediately ran forward respectfully, hunched over, smiling all over his face, the tablecloth on his shoulder was a fistful away from his chest.

"What happened outside, so noisy?" Lin Xiyao asked.

"As for the girl, there was an old man outside who owed someone money and couldn't pay it back. The man wanted to use his daughter to pay off the debt, but the old man refused, so there was a lot of noise." Xiao Er briefly described the things outside.

"Why would he owe someone money?" Lin Xiyao frowned and asked.

"The two of you probably aren't locals." Xiaoer straightened his body, and although he was asking, he said it with certainty.

"We're passing by here, and we'll be resting here for the past two days." Wu Yuehen sipped his tea and replied.

"It's no wonder the two of you don't know, this old man with money and money has a unique skill in brewing wine, and he opened a small wine shop. Everyone in our small town knows it. You don't know how many restaurants and teahouses are in his As for buying wine, but there are not many wines produced in the temple, only restaurants that have been booked in advance can have it. His wife left him such a precious daughter, and his daughter is also somewhat beautiful. Life in the wine store is decent, but since last year, people have been spreading rumors that his wine is not fresh, some say it is sour, some say it has been mixed with water, and some people say that his wine is mixed with something, making it addictive. It's not that the wine is good, which caused all the restaurants to return their products one after another. I remember that the old man fell ill, and his daughter borrowed money from door to door, but no one was willing to borrow money. They all said that lending money to this wicked person would be detrimental Yes, but some people don't believe in this evil, saying that they believe in the old man's character, and lent him the money. The old man was very grateful, and said that he must repay this kindness even if he is a cow or a horse in this life. There is no need for you to be an ox or a horse. If you can’t pay back the money next year, then I will marry your daughter, so that our two families will become in-laws. Not only do you not have to pay back the money, but I will also give the dowry as usual.’ This is not the end of this year , the old man hasn't returned yet, did someone come to ask for his daughter?" Xiaoer slowly explained the whole story.

"I see. No wonder it's so noisy. It sounds like cursing and fighting in the street, as well as women's cries. It doesn't sound like marrying a bride, but like bandits robbing someone." Lin Xiyao heard the whole story, but felt that something was wrong. not on.

"Is there something hidden in this?" Wu Yuehen asked.

The little girl smiled "hehe" and stopped answering. A person at the table next to him also chuckled lightly after taking a sip of wine. Wu Yuehen looked at him, "Brother, what do you know?"

The man was wearing a square scarf, like a scholar, put down his glass, "There are some things, it's inconvenient for him to say more, so don't make things difficult for him."

Seeing people picking on each other, the little girl didn't stay long, and went on to other things.The man continued, "Indeed, this is a beautiful thing. In times of crisis, if someone gives charcoal in a timely manner, who would not be grateful? The old man who brews wine is no exception. He asked his daughter, and his daughter bluntly said, 'The current However, there are still people who are willing to get close to us, at least they are not bad. Although the daughter does not leave her father, if it really comes to that point, there is nothing I can do with her as a concubine.' Later, his youngest daughter often went to this great benevolent man's house , not to borrow money to see a doctor, but also to receive some rations, the two of them came and went and got acquainted, seeing that the dates were similar, everyone thought it was a good thing, but then one day, the little girl went to borrow food, but the food was not enough. Said, but also came back in a daze, do you think it's strange or not."

"Why is that so?" Wu Yuehen only felt bad.

"The old man saw her like this, so he asked her, 'Did that person bully you?' The little lady shook her head, 'No,' what's the matter with you? He doesn't want to help us? The little lady bowed her head and said nothing, and then Said with certainty, "Father, I will never marry such a despicable villain." She told his old father that he happened to overhear the young servant's drunken chatter in that good man's house. I went to look for that 'good man', but was stopped by his daughter, and later that 'good man' also heard about it, and the two families immediately broke up, and there would be troubles every day here." After finishing speaking, he continued It's haha.

"Oh? What's the reason? Why didn't the good man sit down with them and have a good discussion to resolve the misunderstanding?" Not to mention Wu Yuehen, even Lin Xiyao felt that this was strange.

"Hahaha" The person who was at the same table with the person just now laughed again, while the scholar who had just spoken stopped him and said, "Eat, eat." The person waved his hand and was about to say something, when the scholar put down his chopsticks and said : "Brother Tian, ​​I advise you not to get into trouble."

The person who was called Brother Tian didn't care much, and continued: "What a good man, he is a profiteer. He wanted to buy other people's secret recipes, but they didn't sell them, so he thought of a cheap way to blackmail him. The secret recipe, but in the end, he became interested again and wanted to get his daughter in. You said that the old man only has such a daughter, so can you not pass it on to her? It’s easy to take advantage of it.”

"It's really deceiving!" Hearing these words, no matter how stupid he is, he should be able to react. Wasn't this a trick played by the "great good man" from the beginning to the end?Lin Xiyao rose up angrily, turned around and went out, wanting to seek justice for the father and daughter.

A few servants outside the door were dragging a little girl. The little girl refused to obey her orders, and desperately crawled towards the old man who was kicked and beaten not far away, and the bean-sized beads in her eyes were desperately falling down. , the clothes on his body seemed to be unable to withstand such a pull.

"Stop!" Lin Xiyao yelled when she saw this scene as soon as she went out, and a few servants gave her a disdainful look, then turned around and continued to drag and beat her.

Lin Xiyao made a leap and rewarded each of them with a kick, and kicked the servants who were dragging the woman to the ground one after another. Seeing that something was wrong, the people who beat the old man came over to form a siege, wanting to teach them a lesson A man of good deeds.

"Hey, the little girl is very chic. She looks unfamiliar, she doesn't look like a local. What's the matter? Do you want to play with my brothers today?" A boy who seemed to be the leader touched his cheeks with one hand. Shaking his mustache, he looked at Lin Xiyao wretchedly.The rest of the servants around him laughed 'hehe' when they heard this, and they all looked at her with ill intentions.

Lin Xiyao was not afraid at all, the corners of her mouth were raised, not ignoring them at all, she twisted her neck, stretched her muscles and bones a little, raised her chin sideways, looked at them sideways, and waved her hands with disdain. Arrogant.His attitude successfully angered the group of boys, the leader twitched his mustache, narrowed his eyes, and flashed a fierce light, "Come on!"

I saw seven or eight men dressed in the same clothes, all rushing towards a little girl in the surrounding area. The little girl stood there without panic, but stretched out one hand to admire, and kept stroking with the other hand, "Hey , There is a fight outside, look, there is a fight..." All of a sudden, the nearby buildings on the street erupted, and everyone filled the doors and windows of the house, but no one wanted to go outside. People also consciously retreat to the surroundings, leaving a space, for fear of being implicated, and for fear that they will not see a good show.

"Hey, brother, why are you still drinking tea here? The girl you brought got into a fight with someone else." Someone kindly reminded Wu Yuehen.

"It's okay." Wu Yuehen continued to drink tea indifferently.While speaking, I only heard a few 'bang bang bang', everyone watching the play widened their eyes in disbelief, but the girl in the circle rolled her eyes and continued to look at her slender hands, only to see that the girl who was hungry just now The people who pounced on Lin Xiyao like wolves were lying on the ground in disorder at this moment, covering their faces and howling. A bright red 'Five Finger Mountain' was swollen on each of their faces, and some blood was dripping from the corners of their mouths. The victim's blood swirled around in his mouth, and he spit it out through clenched teeth.Wu Yuehen sipped her tea silently, the junior sister was still the same.

The leader saw that his posture was wrong, and was about to run away, "Stop." Lin Xiyao looked at her hand, touched it distressedly, and said, "My hand is swollen, tell me, how do you pay for it?" The leader Turning around to see that she didn't look at him, she was about to pretend she didn't hear, and continued to run, "Hmph, toast and fine wine."

Lightly moving his body with his feet, he landed in front of the leader impartially, blocking his way. The man wanted to continue running away, but no matter which way he went, he could still see Lin Xiyao.The leader finally gave up struggling, knelt down in front of Lin Xiyao in fright, and kowtowed to admit his mistake, "Female hero, spare my life, female hero, spare my life, the little one has eyes but doesn't know Mount Tai, please don't be as common as the little one..."

Lin Xiyao raised her hand, looked at him with hatred, and said arrogantly: "Go back and tell your master how to pay for my hand. Do you understand?"

"The little one understands, understands."

Lin Xiyao really felt disgusted even looking at him, "Hurry up and get out."

"Okay, let's get out now, why don't you guys get out of here quickly?!" This man had a bit of conscience, and quickly evacuated the place with his men.

Seeing those people running away, Lin Xiyao immediately went to see the little girl's injuries, Wu Yuehen also came out from the teahouse at this time, and helped the old man who fell on the ground, "Are you all right?" Lin Xi Yao asked with concern, the woman shook her head with tears in her eyes, the old man looked at his daughter and burst into tears, but he quickly wiped away his tears and bowed to Lin Xiyao, "Thank you for saving me." "You don't have to be polite, this is what we should do." Lin Xiyao said with a chivalrous heart.

"You guys are seriously injured. We know a doctor with excellent medical skills. If you don't mind, come with us." Wu Yuehen suggested, "We'd better discuss this matter in the long run."
