Datang: Huchi served as a bodyguard, but refused to enter the court as an official

While talking, the sound of fast horses came from outside the door.

Li Shizhen's apprentice has arrived!

"Master!"

"Xiao Nong, go and have a look!" Liu Bai ordered.

Han Zhi, courtesy name Xiaonong, is less than 30 years old.

He was originally a well-known doctor in Jingyang City.

At the beginning, Li Shizhen and Sun Simiao competed in the downtown area of ​​Jingyang, which deeply impressed him.

Mao then recommended himself to study under Li Shizhen.

So far, it has been more than half a year.

There are not a few people who have been taught by Li Shizhen and Sun Simiao.

But Han Zhi is the only one who is really famous and recognized.

Speaking of which, Han Zhi and Han Tong still have some relationship.

All ancestors came from the Han family in Changli. Later, one moved to Jingyang, Chang'an to practice medicine, and the other went to Longyou to become an official.

Check the genealogy, or peers.

Today, although Han Zhi's reputation is far behind the two genius doctors, it is said that his medical skills are no less than those of the imperial doctors in the palace.

This time, he was selected by Liu Bai as the accompanying doctor in case of any accident.

The group went to the living room to drink tea, only Liu Bai and Han Zhi followed Li Fengjie to the backyard.

Dong Lianchang is the head of the family, so it is natural to look at his situation first.

Before entering the door, I heard a violent coughing sound.

The first thing Han Zhi learned from Li Shizhen was lung disease.

Hearing this voice, his brows were suddenly wrinkled.

"His lung disease cannot be delayed any longer, otherwise, it will kill him within ten days!"

Chinese medicine pays attention to seeing, smelling and asking, and the "smell" is to listen to the sound.

Seeing that his aunt was about to cry again, Li Fengjie hurriedly said: "Doctor Han, please come in quickly!"

Han Zhi nodded and walked into Dong Lianchang's room.

The target was a skinny old man.

It seems that she is much older than his wife Dong, at least in her 60s.

He was lying on a soft couch, his sallow face was covered with beads of sweat.

The chest is like a bellows, and every time you breathe, there will be obvious noises.

"You are"

Dong Lianchang said in a hoarse voice.

After finishing speaking, there was another severe cough.

Han Zhi frowned, "Don't talk!"

He pulled Dong Lianchang's arm and put his hand on his veins.

Time, a minute and a second passed.

Dong Shi and Li Fengjie didn't dare to take a breath, their faces were full of nervous expressions.

Liu Bai was sitting at the side, also waiting, looking around, suddenly attracted by a strangely shaped stone ornament on the window sill.

This stone, but the size of two fists, should have been collected by Dong Lianchang as a strange stone.

The surface looks bumpy, and the whole is off-white, with a bit of snake-like lines, and it is somewhat transparent when you look closely.

Liu Bai took it casually, rubbed it with his fingers, and wiped the ashes off his hands.

Pressed lightly with your nails, leaving a deep mark? !

It looks like ordinary limestone.

Can the hardness of limestone be so low?

This is almost up to drywall!

Chapter 386 Whether you want money or life, you should know how to measure

Liu Bai is not familiar with various ore materials.

If Jin Dajian was there, he would definitely be able to recognize him at a glance.

Unfortunately, both Jin Dajian and Chai Lingwu stayed in Jingyang to look after the house.

Liu Bai originally wanted to put the stone down, but suddenly saw that Mrs. Dong was looking at him, and panic, or nervousness flashed in his eyes!

He doesn't know about ores, but what Liu Bai knows best is to guess people's hearts!

His own man's life is about to die, why does Mrs. Dong still pay attention to herself?

Or, focus on the stone in your hand?

Reminiscent of Li Fengjie's previous reaction, Liu Bai Liu Bai made a bold guess.

"Could it be that the relocation of the Dong family to Hebei Road has something to do with this stone?"

Liu Bai thought to himself.

It is not difficult to guess that one day, Dong Lianchang passed through Weizhou and discovered a vein of precious ore. If the ore was mined, the profits he would get would be more than the previous property of the Dong family!

Therefore, Dong Lianchang did not hesitate to transfer all the original business, and came to Weizhou City to mine in secret!

Everything is for confidentiality!

Li Fengjie did not dare to tell himself the truth because of Dong Lianchang's entrustment.

After all, the Liu family is also a merchant.

Businessmen are either partners or competitors.

With the strength of the Liu family, it is too easy to overthrow the Dong family.

Li Fengjie was caught in the middle and had a dilemma, so he could only choose to hide it.

Liu Bai has further guesses.

If this kind of ore is very precious, it must not invite outsiders to start the construction.

Maybe the Dong family will do it themselves!

And all the men in the family are sick, that's why!

Many ores are poisonous, and many are inhalable, even if they are not.

Staying in the mineral veins for a long time will of course cause lung disease!

The more Liu Bai thought about it, the more he felt that the possibility was extremely high!

Using two fingers, he rubbed lightly on the stone a few more times, and said to Xu Chu, "Magnifying glass!"

Jin Dajian's craftsmanship can be called the pinnacle, and it doesn't take much effort to make things like a magnifying glass or a telescope.

Liu Bai also asked Xu Chu to carry some tools that were frequently used.

He took the magnifying glass and looked at his fingers.

Even with Liu Bai's determination, he couldn't help being a little excited!

"this is"

Liu Bai suddenly stood up.

On the side, Mrs. Dong, who had been observing Liu Bai, became even more flustered.

Dong Lianchang clearly saw Liu Bai's actions, coughed a few times, and actually struggled to stand up from the soft couch!

On the contrary, Li Fengjie looked relieved.

Tell Liu Bai that he is sorry for his uncle's family, and if he doesn't tell Liu Bai, he will feel sorry.

Now, finally, there is a result

At least the truth about that stone did not come out of his own mouth.

Han Zhi pushed Dong Lianchang down and said, "Do you want to die?"

Dong Lianchang kept coughing, wanted to speak, but couldn't speak, his face flushed with anxiety.

He can't wait to give himself a big mouth.

I thought that no one would come to my room, so I put such a 'money tree'.

Unexpectedly, not only someone came today, but also recognized the 'money tree'!

Is this okay?

If this business is snatched away by others, then what's the point of selling off the property of the ancestral land and relocating the whole family?

Dong couldn't bear it anymore, she walked up to Liu Bai in a panic, and said, "Master Liu Liu, this is just a decoration, you"

Before she could finish speaking, Liu Bai interrupted with a wave of his hand.

"Ornament? This is the ghost who made your Dong family wiped out!"

The people in the room were suddenly taken aback.

Li Fengjie knew how broad Liu Bai's vision was.

"Brother Liu, what do you mean, Uncle's sudden illness is because of this stone?!"

Liu Bai glanced at Li Fengjie.

This kid is getting smarter.

"I'm afraid it's not a sudden illness, but a long-term illness."

Liu Bai took the stone and walked up to Dong Lianchang.

Dong Lianchang's face was almost turning purple.

Nai He couldn't use all his strength, otherwise, he would have stood up and fought Liu Bai desperately.

Han Zhi looked at Liu Bai in surprise, "When did the young master have such profound medical skills?"

After observing for a long time, he checked his tongue and checked his pulse, and he just confirmed that Dong Lianchang had lung disease for a long time, and it only showed up today.

Liu Bai shook his head.

Medicine?

Liu Bai knows it, it doesn't know Liu Bai

"Let me ask you, did you start to feel uncomfortable in your lungs after you got this thing?"

Liu Bai waved the ore in front of Dong Lianchang's eyes.

Dong Lianchang desperately winked at Mrs. Dong.

Dong stepped forward again, but was stopped by Li Fengjie.

"Aunt, whether you want money or life, you should know how to measure it!"

It was a rare time for him to be serious, and he said to Dong Shi solemnly.

Dong Shi's lower lip was almost bleeding from biting it.

She turned her head away with difficulty, not looking at Dong Lianchang's face, and said to Liu Bai: "Indeed, since I got this thing, the men in the family fell ill one by one, but I never told others!"

Seeing that Dong Lianchang was struggling again, Liu Bai ordered Han Zhi to hold him down.

"The warning is right. This thing is valuable on the one hand, but what you earn is the life money of your Dong family. It won't be long before your Dong family will be wiped out!"

In a word, Dong Lianchang was drenched in cold sweat.

Han Zhi looked at Liu Bai, and after getting Liu Bai's consent, he took out the silver needle and pricked his throat.
