Chapter 7 Acacia to the bone(1/2)

Dingxi Royal City is located at the junction of Qizhou and Mengzhou.

The five states under the Dingxi King, who start to line up from the westernmost part of the territory are: Ding, Heng, Meng, Qi, and Yue.

Going further east to Yuezhou, there are mountains and mountains in the nine mountains in the world. There is the world of strange beasts, ruled by the mountain master of its gate, and has nothing to do with King Dingxi.

Strange to say.

The nine mountains in the world are distributed in the territory of the Four Kings.

Zhenbeiwang is Linshan and Zhenshan.

King Andong is Bingshan, Doushan, Zheshan,

The King of Pingnan is Jishan and hiking.

When connected together, all those who fight in the battle line up to move forward.

The strange beasts in the Nine Mountains have much longer lifespan than humans, but they always live safely and contentedly.

The location of Dingxi Royal City was originally just a small village called Huojia Village.

Fifty or sixty years ago, a hunchbacked wandering doctor settled here.

Huo Tiezhu's family lives at the east end of the village, and the couple is with a child. Life is hard to make do with.

Huo Tiezhu's wife's surname is Wu, and she was married from a neighboring village. She has some disability. This disability does not refer to the body, but is not very good at using her head.

When I saw people, I would gesture, and then I kept smiling. It was simple to get married at that time, and Huo Tiezhu's family was not wealthy.

A shoulder pole, carrying a basket of white steamed buns and eggs at each end, even if it was a betrothal gift for a family. After the New Year, the girl from the Wu family imported it to him and gave birth to a fat boy, who looked pretty.

Huo Tiezhu was so happy that he couldn't stop talking about it all day long, but unfortunately he was stupid and couldn't take care of the children.

He was both a father and a mother alone. He got up five or six times a night to take care of the child, and he had to go to the fields to work in the daytime, but he fell ill not long after.

The whole village felt pitiful, but it was impossible to help.

So when the doctor of You Fang came, everyone gathered some money and wanted him to see Huo Tiezhu and prescribe a prescription so that he could recover as soon as possible and continue to take care of his family, right?

Unexpectedly, after entering the village, the doctor walked around like a thief, and walked around the corner.

He would not continue anything else to say to him.

"Is that family convenient for me to live in?"

Just as everyone was about to be anxious, the doctor spoke.

The point he pointed to was Huo Tiezhu's family, so everyone quickly helped him agree.

Huo Tiezhu's family was really too poor, and there was no place to sit when they entered the house. More than a dozen people just stood there.

"There are patients in the room!"

The doctor without saying anything, grabbed Huo Tiezhu's wrist and took a pulse.

"You are a sign of a slow pulse. The so-called one breath and three times come, and the journey is extremely slow. Slow means that yang cannot overcome yin, so the pulse is too late."

"Doctor, please give me a simple word. We are just a big and sturdy man, and we are just a muddy man. You just said that we didn't understand a word."

Huo Tiezhu thought his body had suffered some serious illness.

"Have you felt weak in your limbs recently? Especially with lower limbs?"

"Yes, exactly the same as you said. You don't even have the strength to hold a hoe, and you can't eat. You feel very tired if you haven't done any work, and you still can't get any shit."

Huo Tiezhu said.

"You are cold accumulation. I will prescribe you a prescription. After taking three doses, you will be healthy and lively."

"Four liang of Atractylodes macrocephala, one liang of ginseng, five qian of aconite, one liang of cinnamon, one liang of dried ginger, one liang of tangerine peel, and five qian of licorice. You can get the medicine quickly. This prescription needs to be made into pills and swallowed before it can be effective."

The doctor did not speak loudly. Sure enough, after three doses of medicine, Huo Tiezhu went to the field to work like a man who had originally beaten. The doctor did not collect money and said that he would just stay at home for a few days and eat a lot.

One night, Huo Tiezhu came back from the field and saw the doctor teaching his son to read.

"Why haven't you named your child until now?"

"Hehe, we farmers usually call you casually. Or take a naughty name to support you. Look at me, isn't it just called Tiezhu?"

Huo Tiezhu patted the back of his head embarrassedly.

"How can that work? This kid is very smart and must have a good name to match."

As the doctor said, he began to write and draw on paper.

"Just this word, Wang! Little guy, you will call me Huo Wang from now on!"

Huo Tiezhu doesn’t understand what the word means, but since he is a doctor, he will definitely not be wrong.

"But the word "Wang" has a disaster. Look, the left and right moon has died. Since ancient times, the moon has been yin and belongs to the female. The man is the sun and belongs to the Yang. The deceased moon means the death of a woman. Do you think there are other women in this family besides your daughter-in-law?" said the doctor.

Huo Tiezhu was so scared that he couldn't speak. Even if he had no education, he understood what the doctor meant - that his wife would die.

"This is a disaster that your son is destined to be. It can only be solved with his mother's blood. As long as this disaster is over, it will surely be successful in the future, and it will be no difficult to break the land and banish the territory. If you can't get through it... then you can't get through it."

Huo Tiezhu sternly rejected the doctor. In his heart, although his wife was a little stupid, she was her wife after all.

What's more, I gave birth to such a good son for myself. This life is nothing more than a little hard and tired. Even if I can persuade me, I can live my life. The most important thing is to be together.

Seeing that Huo Tiezhu was so determined, the doctor stopped talking about this topic.

The next morning, Tiezhu got up early as usual and went to the field to work on farm work. But after coming back in the evening, he found that there were no people at home.

Huo Tiezhu walked around the house and found a tombstone in the backyard. He looked closer and fainted: the tomb of his deceased wife Wu.

The villagers felt strange when they hadn't seen Huo Tiezhu for several days. Finally, there was a good thing so that they couldn't help but knock on the door.

I found a stench coming from the yard. I followed the smell and saw Huo Tiezhu dead with the tombstone in his arms.

The legs were already chewed by mice and wild dogs, and there were balls of white maggots squirming.

After the autopsy of the government, the government said that the cause of Huo Tiezhu's death was caused by a blunt force hit on the head.

According to the inference at the scene, he was undoubtedly slamming his head on the tombstone of his deceased wife.

The doctor naturally became the suspect, but his appearance was too ordinary.

The villagers could not describe any other characteristics except remembering him hunchback.

Huo Tiezhu's son is still young and has not yet named a household registration, so he even looks for a needle in a haystack if he wants to find him.

The government was afraid of taking responsibility for the murder case, so he decided to commit suicide by committing suicide by Huo Tiezhu. As for his son, he disappeared and ignored him.

No one knows what happened next.

The only name Huo Wang left him and the hunchbacked doctor knew.

When the name was passed back to Huojia Village, a few more words were added to the front.

King Dingxi.

One of the five kings in the world.

Everyone thinks that Huo Wang must have something to do with this Huojia Village. Otherwise, why did he build the dignified Dingxi Prince's Mansion here?

Besides, his surname is Huo.

He himself never revealed a word, so naturally no one dared to ask.

Over time, people no longer care about this matter. After Huojia Village was replaced by Dingxi Prince's Mansion, it gradually stopped mentioning it.

The palace has been renovated since last year.

The main door is widened into five large fans, with a bulge in the shape of a dragon spine on it.

The door railings and window frames are the freshest carvings nowadays, which are grand and not impetuous, and set off the style of the royal palace. The dozens of white jade steps below are all carved with the image of a prairie wolf rider.

No matter who comes, you have to step on them. You can imagine how deep the hatred of Dingxi King is.

After entering the door, there are two winding corridors on the left and right, with countless houses arranged, all living in the guards guarding the Dingxi Prince's Mansion, and a central avenue leads to the main hall.

Huo Wang was dressed in military uniform even in his own mansion.

On the huge table in front of him was a purple gold helmet of Jiufeng Chaoyang. Although his hard and firm face was a bit rough, it showed even more vicissitudes.

Hong Lu Qitian Qingling Rui Beast Robe was covered with a complete set of sunset red cloud armor, which looked refreshing compared to the solemn and solemn tones of the entire royal palace.

"Liu Jinghao finally couldn't help but want to try me... What is the need for this small inquiry? Tang Ming was too terrible. Let him go and read and pass the message in the middle. But you can go back and the person must stay. Let Huihan tell him that the bandits in Yuezhou are rampant, and he must lead his troops to wipe out the enemy thoroughly!"

Huo Wang used the hilt of the sword at his waist to knock on the secret newspaper box that had just been sent from Dingzhou. There were two ancient characters at the top of the scabbard: Xinglan.

Dingzhou Guanyi.

Liu Ruiying didn't dare to look at Li Yun all day, but Li Yun was still chattering and talking to him.

"I said brother, can you control such a living beauty around you?"

Tang Zhongsong and Yanzi had already started practicing martial arts with Zhang Xuejiao. Zhang Xuejiao sent them a doll that showed all the meridians of the human body, as well as acupoints, acupoints, and acupoints. They had to memorize them by rote. Yanzi held the doll and began to remember them silently. Tang Zhongsong glanced at him and lost interest, so he simply came to joke with Liu Ruiying.

"Did you already have someone you like? You won't have been engaged!"

"Yes, she is a very cute girl. She is very kind, just a little naughty."
