Chapter 20

Yujun and the others galloped all the way, but they arrived at the Earth Temple outside the city in a short while.Probably due to years of disrepair, the entire Earth Temple looks dilapidated, and the only remaining couplets that can be seen are the upper couplet, which reads "If you have a sincere heart, why do you need to burn incense to pay off your vows".

The Earth Temple is quiet and quiet, there are no residents around, and few people pass by.Xia Zhaoxue stood at the door for a moment, called "Mother" in a low voice, but no one answered.

Yujun was puzzled as to why people lived here, so she heard a sharp cry from inside, high-pitched and full of pain, followed by a woman's scream: "Liang'er!"

"Brother! Mother!" Xia Zhaoxue's heart tightened when she heard the words, and she hurried inside, followed by Yujun, and saw a skinny young man in the ruined temple, who must be Xia Zhaoxue's brother Xia Jinliang.

Seeing him screaming up to the sky, he suddenly fell backwards. Fortunately, Mrs. Zhang was prepared and hugged him.Xia Jinliang clenched his fists tightly, turned his eyes upwards, and his whole body, even his facial muscles began to twitch uncontrollably.Xia Zhaoxue was about to approach, but was stopped by Zhang's low heck, and then, Zhang took a rag and stuffed it into Xia Jinliang's mouth.

The scene was so frightening that even Li Shanzhou pulled Yujun back unconsciously and said in a low voice, "Be careful." Just when everyone thought Xia Jinliang had calmed down, he suddenly twitched again. They were all bruised and purple, and the cloth strips stuffed in his mouth seemed to affect his breathing, his facial expression looked more ferocious, and his movements became wider.

With tears in her eyes, Mrs. Zhang was going to get the thick hemp rope on the ground, apparently to tie Xia Jinliang up.Yujun hurriedly said: "No!"

While she was talking, she walked quickly to Xia Jinliang's side, and said in a deep voice, "If you tie him up with a rope, it will only make him suffer more. If it doesn't matter, he will even hurt himself."

"Girl is worried!" Mrs. Zhang saw a young girl walking towards Xia Jinliang and was about to back away, but she whispered, "Don't be afraid, auntie, I'm a doctor!"

At this time, Yujun didn't care too much, and the situation was critical, so she could only use lies to coax Zhang to believe him.As soon as Mrs. Zhang hesitated, she took Xia Jinliang and laid him flat on the ground, then quickly took out the rags stuffed in his mouth, and turned his head to one side.

But after a while, thick white foam flowed out from the corner of Xia Jinliang's mouth, and someone else would have already frowned and moved away, but Yujun didn't care, and asked Zhang to move away the stone benches, stove and other things around Xia Jinliang.After this series of actions, Xia Jinliang's breathing slowed down and his face turned pale. Yujun was worried, and when she opened her mouth slightly, she stuffed the handkerchief folded in advance to the side of his teeth to prevent him from biting her tongue.

From the beginning to the end, she was by Xia Jinliang's side. It was not until after a long time that he let out a long sigh that Yujun breathed a sigh of relief.

"He's probably going to sleep for a long time. Auntie, help him to the bed and lie down. It's best to put some soft clothes around him to prevent him from getting hurt again."

Mrs. Zhang thanked her in a low voice, and looked at her son worriedly, while Xia Zhaoxue stood aside in shock.

Yujun raised her eyes and saw that Zheng Shining and Zheng Sizhao arrived at the door without knowing when they arrived, while Li Shanzhou stood beside him calmly, with no surprised expression on his face, but the two of them just looked at each other. At that moment, Li Shanzhou's eyes flashed with admiration.

"Mother, why did my brother become like this..." Xia Zhaoxue asked blankly without recovering from her fear for a long time.

Mrs. Zhang gave her a sideways look, and said expressionlessly: "I sold you into a brothel, you should hate me! If you are still alive, you should leave us and live your own life, so why bother with us!"

After one sentence, Xia Zhaoxue felt sad and held Zhang's hand for a long time, unable to speak, both of them were teary-eyed.

This time of parting from life and death, the mother and daughter didn't know how much they wanted to say. Yujun quietly glanced at Li Shanzhou, and the two retreated quietly. Li Shanzhou told Li Sinian to stay and help. During this busy period, Zheng Shining and Zheng Sizhao didn't regain his composure for a long time, and insisted on taking Yujun and Li Shanzhou for a walk, and the servants led the horses to follow.

Since Yujun entered Beijing, she was caught in Hua Xiangrong without taking a good look at what the master of the capital looked like. Even though she had escaped from Hua Xiangrong in her previous life, she lived in a high-walled compound before she got married. After she got married, she devoted herself to being the mistress, and couldn't go out easily. Now that she stepped into the capital, the streets were bustling with noises, and she seemed to have returned to that time with her mother, walking through the streets to replace others. The days of seeing a doctor.

This is the air of freedom... Yujun wished to open her hands and take a good breath, but the three people around her were too outstanding, which attracted everyone's attention, even she was too embarrassed to be too presumptuous.After leaving the Earth Temple, Zheng Shining seemed to be frightened, he didn't speak for a long time, and then came back after entering the city gate, and said in a low voice: "Sister Yu, what happened to that person just now! It's so scary!"

"I don't know either. It's probably shofar wind. In some places it's also called 'sow madness'." Yujun replied with a smile.

"You don't know?" Zheng Shining had a strange look in his eyes: "Just now you said you were a doctor..."

"The situation was critical at that time, and I lied to her!" Yujun smiled slightly, "My mother is a doctor, and I have been walking around the streets with her to treat people since I was a child. My neighbor's aunt also has the problem of epilepsy. Getting sick is scarier than this, and the uncle next door will run over to find my mother..."

Speaking of mother, Yujun felt a little lonely.

Zheng Shining said again: "There are very few female doctors in Daqi, your mother is really amazing!"

"Yes! My mother is a very good doctor!" Yujun proudly said, and when Zheng Shining asked if she was afraid just now, Xia Jinliang foamed at the mouth so frightening, Yujun smiled and said: "My mother once said that the parents of doctors It is right to treat patients regardless of rich or poor, high or low, and treat them equally. I was not afraid when I was busy just now, but now that I think about it, I am indeed a little scared."
