Zhang Tianzheng frowned and thought, then said in a voice, "can you tell me the place where the old doctor of traditional Chinese medicine treated you last time? In any case, we have to try to find some places where old Chinese medicine doctors used to rest and live. If we can't find another way, we can find another way
"That seems to be the only way." Laoniutou nodded and said, "I remember that the villager who met the old TCM doctor met him on Jigong Mountain, three kilometers southeast of Jiang village. Later, the agreed treatment site was on a hill at the south foot of Jigong Mountain. There was a thatched cottage built by the old TCM doctor himself. It's hard to say if he is still there."
Jigong Mountain! As soon as Xiao Qiang's eyes brightened, he said to Zhang Tianzheng, "grandfather, when I was a child, you carried me up the mountain to seek treatment from the old Chinese medicine doctor. Were you also in Jigong Mountain?"
"No, the mountain I'm taking you to is Kunming mountain. It's located in Jigong Mountain and it's five kilometers deep. It took us a whole day and a half to get there." Zhang Tianzheng opened his mouth and said, "it seems that we can only go one step at a time, and go to Jigong Mountain and Kunming mountain first."
Xiao Qiang and Zhang Jingyi look into each other's eyes, which are full of helplessness. At present, there is no important clue, and it seems that it can only be so.
"Laoniutou, did you talk to the old TCM doctor during the treatment? Is there anything noteworthy? " Zhang Tianzheng said, "for example, did the old Chinese medicine say what he wanted to do next?"
After trying to recall for a moment, laoniutou said, "I found the old TCM doctor on the mountain and spent three or four days with him. He has a strange temper and is not willing to talk much. He only asked me a few words during the treatment. Sometimes I take the initiative to chat with him, he also has a no answer. Once I asked him why he would stay in Jigong Mountain. He said that Jigong Mountain is a kind of precious Chinese herbal medicine to treat diseases. I was very strange at that time. I asked him if there were other patients besides me? He laughed and did not answer, saying that the disease is much more difficult to treat than mine. "
"You mean... The old Chinese medicine doctor is treating other people besides you?" Zhang Tianzheng was surprised and said, "no? There is only Jiang Village in this mountainous area with a radius of several hundred Li. I have never heard of anyone in the village who was treated by the old Chinese medicine more than two years ago
"I was also puzzled at that time, but the old Chinese medicine doctor didn't say anything." When laoniutou said this, he suddenly thought of something and said, "Oh, by the way, when I was in Jigongshan for treatment, an old Chinese medicine doctor fainted. When he woke up, he didn't have much to do. He just said that he was too tired and needed to rest. But I think he was very pale at that time, and his body was shaking when he walked. I don't know what happened
Xiao Qiang's heart suddenly sank. He had a kind of bold guess. He couldn't help saying in a voice, "is it possible that the old Chinese medicine doctor is ill? Is he going to cure himself? "
As soon as his words came out, everyone was surprised. But soon, Zhang Tianzheng patted his thigh and said, "yes, what you said is reasonable. It is very likely that the old Chinese medicine doctor is ill!"
"That's the end..." Lao Niutou said with regret, "the old Chinese medicine doctor is very old. If he is seriously ill, how dangerous would it be to live alone in this barren mountain? After more than two years, will it... "
"No!" Zhang Jingyi stood up fiercely and said excitedly, "I believe that the old Chinese medicine doctor will cure his own disease and survive!"
Xiao Qiang can fully understand Zhang Jingyi's excitement. After all, the old Chinese medicine doctor is the last hope of Melinda company and Zhang Jia. She must not let her inner hope be shattered!
However, the fact is often cruel. If the old Chinese medicine doctor really had a serious illness more than two years ago, I'm afraid it would have been worse now. However, due to not stimulating Zhang Jingyi, Xiao Qiang didn't say this. Instead, he analyzed, "if the old Chinese medicine doctor is really seriously ill, then I think he will not go around as before, but will concentrate on finding a place to settle down and try his best to treat his own diseases. In other words, the old Chinese medicine doctor is probably still on Jigong Mountain or Kunming mountain! "
"If the old doctor of traditional Chinese medicine is seriously ill, it is really possible." Zhang Tianzheng nodded and said, "after all, if a person is ill, his range of activities will undoubtedly be greatly limited."
"Well, in this way, the disease of old Chinese medicine is our opportunity. Xiao Qiang, it's not too late. Let's go into the mountain Zhang Jingyi serious and excited way, "I must see the old Chinese medicine, must ask him to help!"
"Starting today? Is it too hasty? " Zhang Tianzheng didn't expect Zhang Jingyi to be so resolute and said in a hurry, "well, you stay at home. I'll go to kunmingshan of Jigong Mountain to help you find it. If you find it, how about letting you go again?"
"Grandfather, how can that be? When you are old, what should you do in case of danger when you climb such a high mountain and such a long way? I'd better go with Jingyi. It's more convenient. " Xiao Qiang is still full of confidence in himself. After all, Jiutian Xuanyu is in his hands. All his special abilities can help him not to get lost, but also to deal with wild animals in the mountains. What's more, he had been to Jigong Mountain and Kunming mountain when he was a child. He knew which direction it was, so he didn't need his grandfather to be a guide.
Zhang Tianzheng shook his head and said, "Xiao Qiang, this mountain road is not so easy to walk in the deep mountains and forests. What's more, there are few people and many wild animals. Some roads are rugged and difficult to walk. It's easy to get lost. Miss Zhang is used to staying in big cities. I'm afraid she can't bear it?"
"Don't worry, grandfather. I've already prepared the positioning equipment. It doesn't matter if Jingyi can't bear it. I can help her go together as long as you tell me the general direction. We also carry camping tents and sleeping bags with us. There won't be any problem Xiao Qiang said, "Jingyi is a patient. If she doesn't go, it's useless to find an old TCM doctor, so we'd better go."
Zhang Tianzheng is still very worried. He is from the mountains. Of course, he knows the danger in the mountains. How can a delicate little girl like Zhang Jingyi bear it? But seeing the firm eyes and eyes of Xiao Qiang and Zhang Jingyi, he was embarrassed to speak again.
"Brother Zhang, well, Xiao Huan, my wolf dog, is very familiar with the mountain road there. Last time I went to treat my illness, I took him with me, so let him go with Xiao Qiang. With Xiao Huan in the mountain, these wild animals will be afraid. If they are in danger, they can call the police, so that their safety will be guaranteed." When Lao Niutou said this, he saw that Zhang Tianzheng had no objection and whistled outside.
Soon a big brown and black wolfhound rushed in at the door and without hesitation jumped into the old ox's arms. The old ox's head stroked his coarse hair with a smile, and whispered as if he was commanding something. The wolf dog actually looked at Xiao Qiang like a psychic. Then he walked over slowly with his tongue sticking out and licked his palm, which was regarded as a greeting.
Zhang Tianzheng couldn't help laughing at this scene and said, "Lao Niu, Lao Niu, it seems that you've been training this dog since you didn't do anything recently. Let alone, this dog has spirit!"
"That is, my dog Xiaohuan is a kind of military dog, naturally psychic!" Laoniutou was quite proud and said, "Xiao Qiang, take it with you when you set out. Usually, you just need to give it some meat. It will become a good guide and guard."
"Thank you, uncle Niu." Xiao Qiang touched Xiaohuan's head, and undoubtedly liked this wolf dog full of spirituality.
"It shouldn't be too late, Xiao Qiang. Let's go back and get ready. I'm not sure if I haven't found an old Chinese medicine doctor for a day. " Zhang Jingyi took the initiative to get up and say goodbye, "target Jigong Mountain, I must find the old doctor in the mountains!"
