Chapter 330: Are you going to die? Xie Yuchuan!
The bonfire crackled in the dark night, and the aroma of barbecue quickly spread all around with the sudden change of night wind.
Tonight, all the escorts knew that Xiong Jiushan had invited Taoist Guanghan and Xie Yuchuan to eat meat for the first time, but they never expected that the smell would be so delicious!
The two nearest officers were a hundred steps away and suffered the most.
"Oh my god, how is this wild boar meat roasted? I can't stand the smell." A soldier hugged the gun barrel stuck on the ground, his mouth watering with greed.
The brother beside him didn't look much better. He stared at the two people standing at the roots of a large tree not far away, and kept saying "Smells good! It smells so good! It turns out that adults know how to eat it! It's nothing like us ordinary idiots. I've never smelled such a good smell in my life."
"Who says it isn't?"
"A fugitive who's doing much better than any of us."
A low laugh echoed beside him, "Don't you see what kind of fugitive Xie Yuchuan is? A general was exiled to the frontier. Even if he's worse off, he's still much better off than us."
"That's true."
The two men were whispering to each other. All I could see was the area covered by the fire. They were talking, but I couldn't hear clearly.
"However, putting aside other things, just look at the people in the Xie family who gave out medicine to save people during this incident. I don't know what others think, but I think the Xie family is quite kind and righteous. If I had that magic medicine, I wouldn't give it away." He leaned close to his brother's ear and whispered, "I heard from the people around the doctor that just that small pill of medicine could be exchanged for a cow at least, and at most, enough to buy a house and marry a wife in the city!"
"You're just bragging! Talk about getting married? For people like us, we're lucky to be able to just make enough to eat every day and survive."
"Hey, why don't you believe it!" He turned around and pointed in the direction of Xiong Jiushan, "Look! See, those doctors have been in there for quite a while, right? If our master doesn't come out soon, I don't think he'll be able to eat this delicious barbecue!"
The main hall of the house.
Yu Song, along with several doctors who shared his views, sat on the left and right sides.
At the top, Xiong Jiushan's face darkened slightly, and he tapped his fingertips impatiently with his hands on the table.
"I understand. You want the Xie family's cold medicine?"
Several people looked at the leader, Doctor Yu.
Yu Song stood up and said, "Sir, this is wrong."
"Oh? Did I misunderstand?"
Yu Song continued, "It's not that you misunderstand, Your Excellency. It's that several of us doctors, motivated by our compassion, believe that the Xie family's medicine is indeed miraculously effective for treating colds and high fevers. Your Excellency, if this medicine is truly a divine gift from heaven as the Xie family claims, then I believe that even if the gods bestowed such a miracle medicine, they would not allow the Xie family to keep it all to themselves and bury this blessing. The gods are compassionate and would surely hope that such a good thing can benefit the people of the world." He turned and raised his hand to glance at the people around him. "I and several other doctors have come to see you specifically to share your worries. This medicine is precious, and it has been kept in the hands of exiles. It is a waste of natural resources and a disgrace to the gods! Why don't you allow the Xie family to donate this medicine and benefit the people of the world?"
Yu Song clasped his hands together and said respectfully, "Sir! This medicine can save countless lives. Such a great achievement will last for thousands of years! If you have any concerns, I have an elder from the same clan in my family. Although he is not talented in the court, he holds a high position and still has some remaining energy. He can speak for you. If you are willing, I am willing to introduce you to someone else!"
As soon as these words were spoken, the other doctors nodded and looked at Xiong Jiushan eagerly.
Xiong Jiushan narrowed his eyes and looked carefully up and down at Doctor Yu, who had an extraordinary "background" in front of him.
Yu Song's speech was passionate and every word was precious.
It sounds like she's always working for the benefit of the people and her own future. On the one hand, she's trying to be nice to him, explaining the pros and cons; on the other hand, she's hinting at his background in the Yu family, secretly exerting pressure and making people wary.
Lure them with benefits and attract them with harm.
It is common sense to seek profit and avoid harm. This is why it is expected that Xiong Jiushan, a small escort officer, would be tempted.
What a great doctor.
Xiong Jiushan thought to himself, maybe the head of the Tian family has some serious illness, so he invited this kind of doctor!
Yu Song: "Sir?"
Xiong Jiushan lowered his eyes to suppress his displeasure, then raised his eyes to look at the other person, feigning embarrassment. "I accept Doctor Yu's kindness, but this medicine is a secret recipe of the Xie family. I need to inquire about the Xie family's opinions on this matter." After saying this, he turned around and picked up the cup beside him to drink tea, hiding the impatience in his eyes. "Doctor Yu, since there are elders in our family serving in the court, they must be well aware of the Xie family's exile. Matters concerning the gods are beyond the comprehension of mortals like us. I need to give this matter more consideration before making a decision."
Yu Song was so focused on finding medicine that he was in high spirits. He didn't fully understand Xiong Jiushan's hidden intention. He just felt that an unknown official like Xiong Jiushan must have been overjoyed to have such an opportunity and way to make achievements.
He had said everything he needed to say, and he was absolutely sure that Xiong Jiushan would not refuse the rest.
When he saw him serving tea, he bowed and said goodbye.
Outside, Han Qiguang and Xie Yuchuan were chatting casually. When he looked up, he saw several doctors who had been treating patients during the day walking out in the distance, talking and laughing, and they seemed to be very happy.
Han Qiguang stretched his neck and looked for a moment, muttering, "Did Xiong Jiushan promise any benefits? Look how happy these guys are."
After a while, Xiong Jiushan came out of the house wearing a thick coat, with his head lowered and a gloomy face.
Han Qiguang retracted his neck and whispered to Xie Yuchuan beside him: "It's bad, I think Xiong Jiushan is in a bad mood."
Xie Yuchuan raised his head and turned his body to look over.
He had good night vision, and as Xiong Jiushan walked faster and faster, the gloomy expression on the other person's face, as if he wanted to kill chickens and sheep, was quite obvious.
Coming back to his senses, he hummed.
"really."
Han Qiguang glanced at him and asked, "Did you guess it?"
"When a group of doctors see a miracle drug, how can they not be greedy? It's human nature."
On the contrary, it is those who remain unmoved, like Doctor Lu and others, who are admired.
"Oh, you're quite open-minded."
As he was speaking, a dark shadow as big as a mountain came over from Xiong Jiushan, and he sat down with a weak and heavy voice.
Without saying a word, he poured himself a bowl of wine.
It was a cold day, and the wine jar was placed outside next to the fire, but it couldn't warm up. It was as if it was iced. After drinking a bowl of it, all the heat in my body was extinguished.
Xiong Jiushan hissed twice before looking up.
"Is it ready?"
Han Qiguang clicked his tongue twice and thought to himself, Hey, without saying anything, he comes up and asks about food! Really good!
Just as he was about to maintain his "personality" and say a few flattering words, he saw Xie Yuchuan draw his knife from the grill, cut off a large piece, and then stuck it on the tip of the knife and held it in front of Xiong Jiushan.
Xiong Jiushan stared at the dagger in his hand, his eyes fixed: ...
Han Qiguang: !!!!!!!!!!!!
You want to die, Xie Yuchuan!
