Drive the RV back to Datang

Chapter 7: Chapter 7: The Unpleasant Chat
In fact, what Dr. Liu said is true. The plague is not an ordinary disease. Although some medicines can alleviate the symptoms of the plague, they cannot cure it. What a plague, under great joy and great sorrow, Li Shimin would not be called God Khan if he didn't chop off their heads to suppress the shock.

After finishing his speech, Imperial Physician Liu continued: "Although it is still uncertain whether this medicine can cure the plague, the current situation is gratifying, and there is still great hope. It is necessary to meet the person who contributed the prescription."

Doctor Cao nodded and smiled: "That's right, I really want to see who this person is."

"Let's go, go back to the medical tent first." After finishing speaking, Imperial Physician Liu took them back to the medical tent, then called the soldiers and asked him to notify Wang Yuantai to bring the person who gave the prescription to see him.

Li Hao was sleeping late, when he was awakened by a violent knock on the door, he heard Wang Yuantai shouting urgently from outside the door: "Li Hao, Li Hao, open the door! Open the door quickly!"

Li Hao got up, rubbed his sleepy eyes and opened the door, only to see Wang Yuantai standing outside the door anxiously.

As soon as Wang Yuantai saw him, he asked anxiously: "Is there anything wrong with your medicine? Imperial Physician Liu wants to see you."

Li Hao said dissatisfiedly: "If you don't curse me, I will die, right? Your medicine is the only problem!"

Wang Yuantai's eyes widened: "Then why did Imperial Physician Liu want to see you?"

"Maybe my medicine is working!"

"Stop making trouble, this is a plague! Do you think your medicine is a fairy prescription, it will take effect so soon..."

"Stop talking nonsense." Li Hao waved his hand impatiently and interrupted him, "Lead the way, I'll meet that Langzhong Liu."

"It's Doctor Liu!"

"Why are you so serious, don't care about these details."

……

Li Hao came down to the outside of the medical tent led by Wang Yuantai, and Wang Yuantai whispered in his ear: "Physician Liu and two other doctors are inside. They are all senior medical practitioners. Please speak politely when you go in..."

Li Hao nodded perfunctorily, stepped forward, lifted the curtain, and walked into the tent. He saw three old men sitting in a triangle shape, drinking water and chatting. Although Hao didn't know him, he also knew that only Imperial Physician Liu was qualified to sit in that seat. He took two steps forward and bowed to salute: "Li Hao, a junior from the junior school, pays homage to the three seniors."

The three old men had no idea that the person who presented the prescription was actually a young boy. They looked at Li Hao in surprise from the moment he walked into the tent, and they didn't recover until Li Hao saluted and said hello to them. Doctor Liu was embarrassed He coughed, spread his hands and said, "Don't be so polite, Li Xiaoyou, please sit down."

Sure enough, there was a small cushion on the ground. Li Hao went over and sat down cross-legged. The ritual of sitting in the Tang Dynasty was kneeling, but Li Hao was not used to kneeling, and his legs became numb after sitting for a while, so he usually sat cross-legged. Fortunately, he is wearing Taoist clothes now, so there is nothing wrong with sitting cross-legged.

Doctor Liu saw that he was wearing a Taoist costume, so he asked, "I don't know which Taoist temple Li Xiaoyou is practicing in, and who is the master?"

Li Hao had already guessed that they would ask about his identity, and designed his identity in advance, so he said, "The boy is not actually a Taoist, and his hometown is Wende County, Cangzhou, Hebei."

"From Cangzhou?" Imperial Physician Liu looked at him puzzled, "Since you are from Cangzhou, why are you still dressed as a Taoist priest here?"

Li Hao began to explain: "Actually, my grandfather used to be from Xuzhou. At that time, he fled the famine and went to Cangzhou, where he settled down. Until three years ago, there was a plague in Wende County, Cangzhou. Although the plague It’s not big, and it didn’t spread, but Wende County suffered heavy losses, with ten houses empty, and my family was not spared, both parents died of the plague.”

Imperial Physician Liu thought about it carefully, and then remembered that there was indeed a plague in Wende County three years ago, and the scale was not small. Fortunately, the imperial court controlled it well and did not spread, but Wende County died a lot There are still many people missing. It seems that Li Hao is one of the missing people, so he continued to ask: "That's when you escaped from Cangzhou and came to Xuzhou?"

"Almost." Li Hao replied according to the script he had set, "At that time, I was also infected with the plague and fled to a remote mountain. I saw a dilapidated Taoist temple and went in. Inside, I met a wandering old Taoist. Master, the old Taoist priest is a good man. Seeing that I was seriously ill, he boiled a bowl of soup and medicine for me to drink. After I drank it, I felt that the symptoms of the plague were relieved a lot. The old Taoist priest seemed to have something urgent to leave, so he gave me the prescription. He also left me the medicinal materials and a medical scripture, and asked me to decoct the medicine and drink it myself. He said that he would be cured in a few days, and then he left. I took the medicine according to the prescription, and I was fine. I thought that my home was gone, so I might as well go back to Xuzhou to have a look, maybe I could find some distant relatives, who came here after fleeing famine, and this robe I was wearing was picked up from a Taoist temple."

Doctor Liu and Hong Cao were shocked when they heard the words, and asked almost at the same time: "Who is the name of the old priest?"

Li Hao: "He only told me his surname is Sun."

"An old Taoist surnamed Sun?" Dr. Hong frowned and pondered for a moment, then suddenly exclaimed, "Could it be! The King of Medicine?"

"Sun Simiao?" Imperial Physician Liu also stared and screamed.

Dr. Cao frowned and twisted his beard: "Well, it should be him. Looking at the world, if anyone can cure this plague, the only one is Sun Simiao, the king of medicine."

The three old men were discussing there, Li Hao was having fun by himself, and Sun Simiao, the king of medicine, was famous all over the world for his medical skills, as long as he was brought out, his prescription would be convincing, and they might not believe it.

Sure enough, the three old men discussed for a while, and Imperial Physician Liu said to Li Hao: "Xiaoyou Li is really blessed, and he was able to meet the senior medicine king. I don't know if the medical scriptures left by Mr. with?"

Li Hao pretended to think about it: "It seems to be true. The old Taoist said that the medical book is his handbook of many years of practicing medicine, and recorded hundreds of prescriptions for restraining intractable diseases, and this prescription for plague is one of them. "

The three of them were startled when they heard the words. The Medicine King's Handbook was amazing, and it also recorded hundreds of miraculous prescriptions. Just look at this prescription for treating plague.

Physician Liu had a deep concentration and tried his best to conceal his agitation. With a clear cough, he regained his appearance of a dignified elder, and asked Li Hao slowly: "Where is the medical book now? Can you take it with you?" As long as Li Hao Said to bring it with him, so he planned to risk his old face and don't ask him to have a look.

Li Hao was upset when he saw his appearance of relying on the old and selling the old, blinked his eyes a few times, and said: "Burn."

"Burn it?" The three exclaimed in unison, and Imperial Physician Liu asked angrily, "Why did you burn it!"

"To keep warm." Li Hao said nonchalantly, "When I escaped from the famine, it happened to be snowing heavily, and I hid in a ruined temple. The medical scriptures were torn off one by one and burned to keep warm. Don’t mention it, the paper of this medical book is good. Although it is not thick, it is quite resistant to burning. time……"

Li Hao was talking vigorously, but Imperial Physician Liu suddenly put his hands on his chest, and he was on the verge of falling, his sad appearance, even if his own son died.

"You...you..." Imperial Physician Liu pointed at Li Hao with a trembling hand, out of breath, Li Hao blinked his eyes and looked at him innocently, "Mr., what's wrong with you?"

"Pfft..." Physician Liu finally couldn't help it, a mouthful of old blood spewed out, the picture was so beautiful, Li Hao couldn't help but let out a "wow" scream, he suddenly admired himself, looking at history, it seems that few people can Zhuge Liang was one of those who vomited blood out of anger. He never thought he would do it today, but it was a bit cruel to poor Imperial Physician Liu.

Seeing this, Dr. Cao and Dr. Hong both exclaimed and stepped forward. One was checking the pulse of Imperial Physician Liu, and the other was massaging his chest for smoothness. Do you want to help?"

Upon hearing this, Imperial Physician Liu, who seemed to be dying, stared at him suddenly, pointed at him, and yelled angrily, "You——get out!"

It seems that Imperial Physician Liu is a gentleman, at least he didn't say the word "scroll".

Dr. Cao and Dr. Hong also said to him with disgust on their faces: "Oh, you go back first, we are enough here, and you don't need to create trouble for Imperial Physician Liu."

Li Hao also knew that he had had enough trouble. Judging from their previous performance, his medicine seemed to have worked and his goal had been achieved, so he casually handed his goodbyes and left the tent.

Outside the medical tent, Wang Yuantai was waiting seven or eight zhang away. When he saw him coming out, he trotted up to meet him and asked, "What, what did Imperial Doctor Liu say?"

Li Hao blinked quickly: "Eh...they told me not to make trouble anymore."

Wang Yuantai looked at him puzzled, and asked curiously, "What do you mean, your medicine doesn't work?"

"The medicine should have worked." Li Hao said leisurely, "But Doctor Liu's condition doesn't seem to be getting better."

Wang Yuantai exclaimed when he heard the words: "Is Doctor Liu also infected with the plague?"

"That's not true." Li Hao waved his hands indifferently, "Let's start having fun, talking about life and ideals."

Seeing that he stopped talking halfway, Wang Yuantai asked anxiously, "And then?"

Li Hao raised his eyebrows and shrugged his shoulders: "Then it was unpleasant, my soap slipped on the floor, he asked me to pick it up, but I refused, and he asked the other two doctors to pick it up, but the other two doctors refused, and then he asked me to pick it up. I'm vomiting blood."

Wang Yuantai looked at him in bewilderment, not knowing what this nonsense was talking about, he really wanted to ask, but he didn't know where to start, what is soap, he guessed it might be a kind of medicinal material, why did the soap fall off? He refuses to pick it up, why he vomits blood when he refuses to pick up the soap.

Li Hao didn't even give him any chance to question him. He strode back and went to sleep when he returned to the village office. When he woke up, he asked Wang Yuantai for food. Wang Yuantai was worried about Li Hao's prescription. The disease of the two sons of the village Zheng's family subsided a lot, so Li Hao confessed like his ancestors.

Another day later, the disease spots on Hu Dashan's body disappeared completely, and Hu Xiaohai's arms and face could no longer see the disease spots, only a little on his abdomen and back. Doctor Liu personally checked the pulse of the two of them, and Hu Dashan had recovered. Hu Xiaohai is also not far from being cured. This news made him very happy, and he secretly laughed and cursed: "The prescription Li Hao gave by that bastard is really miraculous, and it can really cure the plague. It's time to report it."

Physician Liu and the others had just returned to the medical account when the county magistrate of Linbei County came in person, because he also heard the news that a plague patient had been cured here. The magistrate of Linbei County, surnamed Yao, was a middle-aged man in his early 30s , with a gentle face, white face and long beard, he looked like a scholar who was studying. He asked Imperial Physician Liu about the specific situation, and decided to join forces with Physician Liu and the others in the memorial. At the same time, he added the prescription to the memorial, and sent Babaili sent it to the imperial court urgently. After finishing writing the memorandum to the imperial court, County Magistrate Yao and Imperial Physician Liu jointly wrote a memorandum, and sent it to Xuzhou Governor's Mansion. Of course, Li Hao's prescription was also sent along with it.

Originally, the magistrate of Linbei County did not have the right to directly report to the imperial court, but he acted in a hurry. Li Shimin, as a generation of Mingjun, stipulated that any emergency disaster and military situation should be reported directly to the imperial court by local officials, without having to submit them layer by layer.
