Chapter 25 The merits of the old doctor
  In the end, Lao Zhao was carried away by his two sons amidst the scoldings of his wife.

Dr. Chen gave him an injection and prescribed some medicine. When Lao Zhao returned, his complexion had improved a lot.

As soon as Lao Zhao's family left, the villagers stopped watching and did not dare to disturb Old Doctor Chen, so they prepared to disperse.

"Aqing, are you leaving?" Wang Daan asked Lu Qing.

"Hey, Lu Qing, why are you here, and Xiaoyan is here too?"

Only then did other villagers notice Lu Qing and Xiaoyan standing in the corner.

"I've been here all along, but everyone was just concerned about Uncle Zhao's health, so they didn't see me." Lu Qing said with a smile, "Brother Da'an, you go back first, I still have something to ask Grandpa Chen. .”

"Asking for advice?" Wang Daan then noticed the book in Lu Qing's hand and suddenly realized, "Are you here to learn from old doctor Chen?"

"Well, I'm learning some knowledge about herbal medicine from Grandpa Chen." Lu Qing did not deny it.

As soon as these words came out, the villagers were surprised.

How could Lu Qing be so valued by the old doctor?

After the surprise, envy followed.

The old doctor's medical skills are obvious to all, and he can even save people from dying.

Many people had gone to see how sick Lu Qing was before, but he was still cured by the old doctor with a dose of medicine.

Earlier, Lao Zhao fell into the water. I heard that his face was ashen and he couldn't breathe.

Then, the old doctor gave the patient a few massages and revived the patient.

It is no exaggeration to say that this medical skill can bring the dead back to life.

Now that Lu Qing is lucky enough to study medicine under the old doctor, how could everyone not be envious of him?

But envy is envy, and the villagers also know that such things cannot be envied.

Learning medical skills is not easy at first glance. People who are not very smart may not even be able to get in.

Didn't you see that Lu Qing was holding a book? The words that everyone in their village knew could not be filled in a basket together.

Only Lu Qing, who had been taught by his grandfather since he was a child, was able to read some words.

Perhaps this is why Dr. Chen values ​​Lu Qing.

Thinking of this, the jealousy of many villagers also decreased a little.
  Because they know that even if such a good thing falls on them, they have no ability to catch it.

An older villager stepped forward and patted Lu Qing on the shoulder.

"Well done Lu Qing, you must study medicine with the old doctor and try to learn all his skills!"

The sudden encouragement made Lu Qing a little confused.

He really wanted to say that he was really just learning a little knowledge about herbal medicine from Dr. Chen.

Just looking at the old man's earnest eyes, he could only nod his head: "I will work hard."

Until all the villagers left, Lu Qing was still a little confused.

He originally thought that everyone would be envious and jealous when they saw him studying medicine at the old doctor's place.

But he just saw it.

The villagers were envious and jealous, but it was not as strong as he imagined.

On the contrary, in addition to envy and jealousy, everyone seemed to really hope that he could really learn the old doctor's medical skills.

Lu Qing doesn't like to speculate on others with malicious intent.

But he also knows that people's hearts are unpredictable, and sometimes people's jealousy comes without any reason.

"Are you confused?" Old Doctor Chen came to Lu Qing's side.

"What?" Lu Qing didn't know why.

"I don't understand why the people in the village hope that you can learn my medical skills?" Old Doctor Chen said with a smile.

Lu Qing nodded, he did not quite understand.

Does the old doctor know the reason?
  "Lu Qing, do you know how many doctors there were in the nearby villages when I lived in this village?" The old doctor did not answer Lu Qing's question directly, but asked instead.

Lu Qing shook his head.

When the old doctor came to the village, the original owner was still young and did not have much memory in this regard.

"None." The old doctor gave an answer that surprised Lu Qing. "Before I came to the village, there were not even a single doctor in the nearby villages."

"The villagers are sick. If they have a minor illness, they basically pick up some herbs they recognize and boil them to drink, or they go to Goddess Wenpo to get some medicine. The rest is basically boiled. If they really can't bear it, they can drink it. I will go to the city to seek medical treatment.”

"But most of the serious diseases in the world evolved from minor illnesses. By the time you can't bear to go to the city to seek medical treatment, it is often a serious illness."

"Serious diseases are difficult to cure. Even if you are a doctor in the city, you are not sure of being able to cure all diseases."

"Besides, it's not easy to live in the city, let alone seek medical treatment."

"Even if the doctors in the city can treat the patient with confidence, the high medical fees are not something ordinary villagers can afford."

"Therefore, for ordinary villagers, a serious illness often means that their life will be short."

"Before I came to the village, in the villages around you, there were not a few people who died of illness every year."

Lu Qing recalled it, and it seemed that in his memory, before the old doctor came, there were indeed funerals in the village every year.

"When I traveled here and came here, I saw many people in nearby villages suffering from diseases and had no way to seek medical treatment. I couldn't bear it, so I stopped here and wanted to give these villagers a chance of life."

"I didn't expect that I would stay here for ten years."

"In the past ten years, I can't say that there have been countless people alive, but at least it has allowed the villagers here to have a place to seek medical treatment when they are sick, so that minor illnesses will not become serious ones."

Lu Qing was shocked when he heard this.

According to the old doctor's words, in the past ten years, he has really been able to guarantee peace and security in this place, and he has become a living Bodhisattva in this place.

"That's why everyone hopes that I can learn medicine from you and be able to treat patients and treat people in the future?" Lu Qing asked.

"Yes, probably everyone is afraid of not being able to seek medical treatment." The old doctor nodded.

"Isn't there you, Grandpa Chen?"

"But I am already very old." said the old doctor.

"Although I rarely walk around the village on weekdays, I can still occasionally hear other people discussing privately, what if I suddenly die one day, and where they will go to see a doctor if they get sick."

Lu Qing: "..."

He thought of the old doctor's identity as a cultivator.

Those criticizing villagers would never have thought that an old man could have such sensitive hearing.

Now Lu Qing finally understood the reason why everyone, even though they were envious and jealous when they saw him studying medicine at the old doctor, still told him to study hard.

It turns out that everyone is afraid of the days before there were no doctors.

They are afraid that if the old doctor is gone one day, they will return to the way they were before.

"Grandpa Chen, are you angry?" Lu Qing asked.

"What do I have to be angry about?" Old Doctor Chen chuckled, "This is just human nature. What's more, I am indeed very old and half of my body is about to be buried."

But I see that your health is still very good.

Lu Qing thought to himself.

He remembered what he had seen, the red light coming from the old doctor's body.

"Lu Qing, you are a smart child. Now you should understand what everyone just meant, right?"

"I understand." Lu Qing nodded.

"Then, are you willing to study medicine with me?"

The old doctor suddenly asked.
