After Yun Yan returned to the palace, the little tiger was still crying, and his voice was hoarse. It was very distressing to see Yun Yan returning.
A group of people surrounded the little tiger, but they couldn't coax him to be quiet. This kid was stubborn. After being abducted and sold, the traffickers couldn't keep him from crying or making trouble.
With tears in his eyes, the little tiger saw Yun Yanhui's figure, pushed aside the crowd, rushed over, and drilled into his arms.
Yun Yanhui squatted down and hugged the little tiger, feeling his arms tightly around her neck, and lovingly wiped his tears, "Good, tell my brother, what's the matter?"
Only Yun Yanhui's words could make him listen. The little tiger's cry weakened, sobbing and telling Yun Yanhui: "My father... my father is sick, he is going to die." He grabbed Yunyan back Clothes, he said, "Brother Yan, I miss my father..."
"Then let's go back and see Daddy, shall we? But what if you don't cry first, otherwise you don't have the strength to walk?" Yun Yanhui took the towel from the waiter's hand and wiped the little tiger's face. Still smoking, but stopped crying.
The little tiger was tired from crying, and gradually fell asleep in Yun Yanhui's arms.
One of the servants complained: "The Miao people who reported the letter were so reckless. They even directly told Shi Xiaolang about his father's illness, which caused Shi Xiaolang to cry so hard he couldn't stop."
The official allowed this person to report to the little tiger, but he did not expect that this person would tell his little master so straightforwardly about his condition. The little tiger cried so loudly that they were also scolded by the concubine.
It was inconvenient for Yunyan to stay for a long time when she returned, holding the little tiger and begging to see Renzong.
Renzong knew this for a long time, and he felt pity for the unfortunate little tiger family. Seeing that the little tiger fell asleep in Yun Yanhui's arms, he asked someone to pick him up and put it on the wooden couch beside him.
"Since that's the case, Shi Gaobi should be asked to return to his hometown quickly to fulfill his filial piety. Get some medicinal materials and send an imperial doctor from the Imperial Medical Bureau to accompany him."
Although it is said that Shifu is dying, and the little tiger will probably see the last time when he goes back, they still have to do some symbolic work.
"I don't know what's wrong with my uncle?" Yun Yanhui asked with a glimmer of hope. He didn't understand medicine, but he knew that many minor diseases in modern times can lead to death. In case a little tiger's father's disease is only an ordinary one in modern times ill, and he just had the impression how to treat it
Renzong: "The miasma enters the body, and all medicines are useless."
Yun Yanhui was very disappointed, he didn't understand this disease at all. Moreover, there are many miasmas in the mountainous areas, and the local residents may know how to treat them better.
Renzong pondered: "I'm afraid I'll have to hurry, day and night, I'll order someone to escort him back to his hometown." Renzong considered for a moment and decided to call Zhou Huilin in charge.
Yun Yanhui knew that Zhou Huilin was quite reliable, and felt a little relieved.
After the little tiger woke up, Renzong told him kindly that he would let someone accompany him back to see his father, and he could set off immediately.
The little tiger hugged Yun Yanhui's arm tightly, and was unwilling to get up.
"Are you still sleepy? Can you sleep in the car?" Yun Yan advised back.
The little tiger shook his head vigorously, put his head on Yun Yanhui's shoulder, and whimpered, "I want Brother Yan..."
In Tokyo, the little tiger trusted Yun Yanhui the most. Now that he knew the news, he was frightened, and he was even more reluctant to leave Yunyan. Just like when he was rescued, he never wanted to leave Yunyan. back.
Yun Yan was stunned for a while, then reacted, and after only a moment, she made up her mind and begged Renzong to allow him to accompany him and send the little tiger back to Guangnan.
Renzong only asked: "The distance from Tokyo to Guizhou is long, and the mountain road is difficult. Are you sure you want to go?"
Yun Yan nodded firmly, "I'll go back and pack up a little, and I'll be able to leave immediately. When I'm away, I'll write a letter to make arrangements on the way."
Renzong knew that the two were in a good relationship, so asking Yunyan to accompany him could also comfort the little tiger, so he nodded: "That's right."
So, at this emergency, Zhou Huilin, the imperial physician, and Yunyan returned to them, packed their things, and set off for Guangnan Road.
Because of the sudden incident, Yun Yan only had time to talk to Zheng Ping, and Zheng Ping understood it very well. This was not the first time he was on a business trip. Others didn't have time to inform at all, and they didn't know that he was no longer in Beijing until he was hundreds of miles away.
…
Because there are the old (the imperial doctor), the weak (Yun Yanhui), and the young (little tigers), even if Zhou Huilin and the little tiger guards are strong, they can't drive the horses galloping, so they can only try to drive the carriage as fast as possible. Horses change horses every time they arrive at the inn.
The carriage was very bumpy. Because of the day and night, except for the necessary rest, it was almost all on it. It was not good to rest at all. After a few days, Yun Yan was better when he was young. The imperial doctor surnamed Wang was already out of breath. pissed.
It's not over until we finally reach Guizhou. Because the little tiger's home is deep in the mountains, the carriage can't go up, and the horse can't run, so he basically has to walk.
I don't know how the little tiger's father is doing, so it's not easy for everyone to delay, and there is no time to rest, so they immediately went into the mountains again.
Previously, Zhou Huilin was in charge. When they got to the mountains, it was the guards of the little tiger who led the way. They were all local Miao people and knew the way.
No, there is no "road" in this mountain at all.
The little tiger was carried by his guards in turn, while Zhou Huilin supported the imperial physician Wang. What surprised Zhou Huilin was that he usually looked at Yunyan's weak and weak language, and had no strength to hold the chicken, relying on others to be the thugs. But in this case, he didn't say a single word of bitterness.
Yun Yanhui hadn't walked on such a mountain road for a long time, but it wasn't that he never walked. Before he crossed, it was not just something that happened in the mountains, but he went to all kinds of deep mountains to shoot material, it was a very common thing.
Although he hasn't endured hardship for a long time, Yun Yanhui is definitely not lacking in strong will, how could he lose the chain like this.
The temperature on the mountain is low, the valleys are shrouded in mist, and the forests are full of insects and beasts. However, among the people present, the Miao people all have secret medicines for deworming, which are a bit better than those made by Imperial Physician Wang, so they lent them as well. Others smear.
Yun Yanhui is very fond of this thing. He used to have the sequelae and fear of insects. He can ward off insects but it is useless against ordinary insects. With this medicine, he seems to have completed his defense. Buy.
After trekking in the mountains for three days, the Miao Cai who led the way said, "It's almost there."
In fact, he doesn't need to say it, everyone can see it.
According to Yun Yanhui's experience, this place is at least five degrees lower than the temperature at the foot of the mountain, there are rivers gurgling, and most importantly, you can see the terraced fields that have been harvested.
Zhou Huilin had never seen terraced fields, and he showed a shocked expression.
Yun Yan returned to the side and said calmly, "The Hehua fish in Guizhou are raised in these terraced fields."
Zhou Huilin naturally thought he knew it from the Miao people, but in fact, because Yunyan returned, Zhou Huilin thought that all Miao people would raise Hehua fish, Zhou Huilin glanced at him and said, "Wouldn't that be more delicious? "
"I can't say that." Yun Yan Hui smiled slightly, then she restrained herself, and patted the little tiger's head, "Let's go faster and get to the stockade before dark."
Little Tiger's stockade is already the closest to the outside world, so it would take three days to travel, not to mention other stockades.
When the twilight came together, there was already a relatively flat area in front of you, with at least one muddy road.
The group met a Miao man who was driving the sheep back home. The Miao man who shepherd was holding a stick in his hand. There was a bell on the neck of his head sheep, which made a crisp sound, and the sound of sheep echoed in the valley.
The Miao people who led the way were refreshed, greeted the shepherd, and eagerly asked him in Miao language how the little tiger's father was doing.
The shepherd was also very excited to see them, saying that the little tiger's father's condition was getting worse and worse, but it was still fine.
When the little tiger heard it, he was about to whimper again.
Yun Yan turned back to her head and hurriedly took the little tiger from Miao Ren's back and began to coax him.
When they went up the mountain, they left their horses at the foot of the mountain, but after walking forward for a while, they could see the local people driving a few horses again. Go to the stockade.
…
Before dark, finally arrived at the hometown of the little tiger.
Looking around, most of the houses in the entire stockade are made of bamboo, because the ground is uneven, and most of them are scattered. And the people here, all dressed as Miao people, cast curious and vigilant glances at a few foreign Han people.
As soon as the little tiger entered the stockade, he broke free from Yun Yanhui's embrace and ran in the direction of his own house. There were two people, and when they ran out, they remembered that Yun Yan went back to them and no one was taking care of them, so they stopped and ran back, it was chaos.
After the two came back, they were at a loss, as if they didn't know what to do. Because they suddenly remembered that the chieftain had ordered that outsiders who came to the stockade should not be let loose, but should be taken to a special place.
However, this Yun Yanhui is also the benefactor of the little master. The chieftain said that he should respect him, and he is also a Miao person, not to mention that there is a doctor. Now, should he take him to that place to wait for the chieftain to see them, or take him to the patient's place?
At this time, the people in the stockade also gathered around and looked at them.
Yun Yanhui reluctantly said to the two people in Miao dialect: "Is there a place to discuss matters in the stockade? I have your majesty's oral order here to announce to the chieftain."
The two breathed a sigh of relief, nodded quickly, raised their heads, one led them in one direction, and the other reported to the chieftain.
The fluent Miao dialect of Yun Yan, who was obviously dressed as a Han Chinese, also attracted the attention of many local Miao people, as if they were looking at some rare animal, they did not dare to approach, but they followed onlookers all the way.
Zhou Huilin's scalp was numb. He felt that those people's eyes were weird, and they were still whispering something in a language he couldn't understand. He followed closely. He was always separated by a distance and not in contact with them, which made him particularly uncomfortable.
"What are they talking about?" Zhou Huilin frowned tightly and asked Yun Yan back, "Haven't they met Han people?"
Zhou Huilin didn't know, in terms of frequency, it was not much different from having never seen it before. If it weren't for something, the people in the stockade might only exchange the mountain for salt and other things once a year, and generally there are fixed groups of people who are responsible for this task of dealing with outsiders. Therefore, there are indeed some people in Zhaizi who have never seen Han people, let alone Zhou Huilin. Compared with the local Han people in Guizhou, there are also some differences.
Yun Yan glanced back at Zhou Huilin and said seriously: "Be careful, don't walk around alone for a few days here, or you may be tricked by Miao Nu."
Zhou Huilin's mouth twitched, showing a look of disdain.
Yun Yanhui added: "It's also possible for the old bachelor to catch you and go back..."
Zhou Huilin stared at Yun Yanhui, to see what obscene words he was going to say.
Yunyan replied, "...Ploughing the field."
Zhou Huilin rolled his eyes.
