022 The Exiled Doctor's Request

It seems that my wife is a relatively easy-to-satisfied woman, which is also beneficial, at least it will not add too much pressure to myself.

Wu Fan thought to himself.

According to Wu Fan's plan, he wanted to stay in Peking City for four or five days before returning to Nanpi. Now a beautiful wife suddenly appeared and she had a maid with her, which made her move in a lot of inconvenience.

Therefore, in order to avoid all possible troubles that arise from the alien forces, Wu Fan had to go home in advance.

However, before leaving, you still have to watch the tavern tasks. Generally speaking, the tavern tasks in each city will be slightly different. If you are lucky, you may encounter short-term tasks with higher rewards. Wu Fan now has a lot of free time, and doing tavern tasks every day has become his most passionate thing.

After walking through several taverns in Peking City that were qualified to issue tasks, Wu Fan was relieved and did not find the task that satisfies him. In this way, he could go back to Nanpi without regrets.

However, after coming out of the last tavern, Wu Fan, who was walking in front, suddenly stopped. Cui Yingying and Ling'er, who were following behind, were not sure, and were about to ask, but Wu Fan had turned around and looked behind them, and said:

"What are your intentions after you have been with us for so long? Couldn't you tell me that it just happened to be the way, right?"

Cui Yingying and Ling'er turned around in surprise and saw a man wearing a coarse head cloth, wearing a coarse short brown (a short coat made of coarse cloth), with a few shimmers of oil on his face, and a man dressed in poor peasants stood in front of them.

Seeing that he had been discovered by Wu Fan, the man's surprised expression appeared on his face and said calmly:

"I...I am just a poor and humble farmer. What can I do? The adults are joking."

Wu Fan smiled slightly and said:

"You said you were a poor farmer, but your arms were very white. Obviously, you didn't often wear such short sleeveless clothes, but changed them temporarily. I'll give you another chance to tell the truth about your purpose of following us, otherwise I'll let you fly farther than the single sword in the hands of the warrior!"

When Cui Yingying and Ling'er heard Wu Fan say this, they quickly looked at the man's arms. As expected, they were as white as Wu Fan said, and were not as rough as real farmers. Seeing this, the two of them quickly ran to Wu Fan, clinging to Wu Fan's clothes tightly, one left and one right.

When Wu Fan said this, the expression on his face immediately showed a look of horror. He never expected that when the outsider in front of him had already noticed himself watching when he was fighting against the warrior!

However, this shows that this foreigner is indeed quite eye-catching and has good skills. Perhaps, he can really help with this matter.

After thinking about this, the man solemnly fisted at Wu Fan, then looked around and lowered his voice:

"I'm not hiding it to you, the reason why I followed you all the way is that I want to ask for help from you. But there are so many people here, I can't talk about it here, otherwise, as soon as I say it, I'll hand over my head."

Wu Fan looked at the man from top to bottom. Judging from the other person's body, he was a weak person; even if he had some martial arts, he might not be very high. In other words, even if the other person wanted to plot against him, he had no chance of winning. Since that's the case, let's hear what he wanted to help him. Of course, the most important thing is what benefits it has.

After looking around, there were quite a few pedestrians, Wu Fan asked Cui Yingying and Ling'er to stand here and wait, and he would go back later.

Then, Wu Fan and the man walked towards a corner of the street dozens of meters away. After reaching the corner, Wu Fan did not go in, but stood outside, so that he could talk to the person inside, and see the situation with Cui Yingying and Ling'er dozens of meters away.

After all, this is Gongsun Zan's territory, not Nanpi, so there is no harm in being careful.

After turning into the corner of the street, the man looked around again. Seeing that there was no one nearby, he bowed to Wu Fan solemnly and said:

"Sir, what I want to say next may be much beyond your expectations. I hope that no matter what I hear, I will not panic. Can I do it?"

Wu Fan frowned slightly, it was nothing else, I felt that this person was so sensible. Is there anything that could scare me, Wu Fan? Is it that aliens are going to attack the earth in advance? Or is the earth about to explode in a few hours?

Although he was a little dissatisfied with this person, Wu Fan still expressed his attitude of understanding these star-studded people's mentality and said:

"If you have anything, just say it."

The man hesitated for a while, as if he had made up his mind, and then said:

"Sir, I'm not to hide it. I was once... a Taoist priest of Taiping."

Speaking of this, the man deliberately interrupted his words and looked at Wu Fan's expression. However, Wu Fan was turning his head to look at Cui Yingying and Ling'er not far away. Seeing that there was nothing wrong with them, he turned around and looked at him. There was no emotional fluctuation on his face, and said:

"And what? Can you finish everything you want to say at once? I'm very busy with time!"

The man was stunned and said in surprise:

"Sir, you have heard what I said just now? I was a Taoist priest of Taiping, and I am now the wanted criminal who is now offering rewards from all government offices."

Wu Fan said a little impatiently:

"You think I'm in my ear? I'll tell you again. I'm very tight. If you're so hard, I'll leave."

After saying that, Wu Fan made a move and wanted to leave.

The man quickly grabbed Wu Fan and said to himself: I really met a warrior today. It seems that this matter must be left to him. Even if he refuses to accept it, at least he will not be in any danger.

After thinking about it this way, this man changed his previous timidity and told the whole story like a bamboo tube pouring beans.

This man was named Zheng Yuan. He was originally a doctor and was very obsessed with medical skills. During the Yellow Turban Rebellion, Zheng Yuan heard that Zhang Jiao had great medical skills, so he joined the Taiping Sect. Because he was a doctor himself, his treatment in the army was very different from that of ordinary farmers. After several twists and turns, Zheng Yuan got his wish and met the leader of Taiping Sect as he wished, and Zhang Jiao, who claimed to be General of Heaven, was called Zhang Jiao.

Since Zheng Yuan's medical skills were pretty good, Zhang Jiao appreciated him more, so he asked him to listen to him under his own account. Zheng Yuan took advantage of this opportunity and often asked Zhang Jiao for medical questions, and the relationship between the two gradually improved. Later, under the suppression of the court and various magistrates, the Yellow Turban Army finally came to an end. Zhang Jiao knew that his life was not long, so he handed over the medical books he had not yet written to Zheng Yuan, hoping that his medical skills could be passed on.

Since this set of medical books has not been finished, after Zhang Jiao's death, although Zheng Yuan continued to write a part of Zhang Jiao's understanding of Zhang Jiao's medical skills based on his usual understanding of Zhang Jiao's medical skills, Zheng Yuan had no idea when he wrote the last dose of the table of contents. Because this prescription involves several herbs that he had never seen before, Zheng Yuan did not know what the efficacy of these herbs and what proportions should be integrated to achieve the effect mentioned in the table of contents.

Although Zheng Yuan himself could also visit and collect these herbs, the problem is that he is now a wanted criminal, wandering and his life may be lost at any time. This time he came to Peking at risk because he heard that there is one of the unknown herbs here. However, after finally getting into the city, Zheng Yuan hid and did not dare to ask people casually.

Before this, Zheng Yuan had the idea of ​​asking someone to help collect these herbs, but he had never found a suitable candidate and would not harm him. After accidentally seeing two duels between Wu Fan, the warrior and Yingying's father on the street, Zheng Yuan could see that Wu Fan was a person with some skills. Although he was not sure whether he could ask Wu Fan to help, he still followed Wu Fan from afar without his control until he was discovered by Wu Fan.

As soon as Zheng Yuan finished speaking, Wu Fan received a message:
