Medicine Girl Jingjing

Chapter 64
A few months ago, the female buffalo that was driven into danger by a mad cow was rescued by Li Jingjing, and three calves, one female and two males, were safely born in the medicine animal enclosure in Li's backyard.

Li Jingjing put away the pair of calves in the Rejuvenation Medicine Mansion without anyone noticing, and neither Li's family nor the people of Qu's Village knew about it.Today they have grown up and multiplied into nine buffaloes.

"Book of Medicine and Beasts" records that cattle are full of treasures, and bezoar is the most precious.Calculus bezoar can be used for antipyretic, detoxification, and calming convulsions.Oral administration to treat high fever, coma, mania, infantile convulsions, convulsions and other diseases.External use is used to control sore throat, aphthous carbuncle, and toxin. (Excerpt from Baidu)

Yuyu casts spells on two male buffaloes every day to make their livers and gallbladders produce bezoar, and then use spells to take out the materials that become medicines.

Li Jingjing hugged Yuyu and asked: "How many pills in the rejuvenation bottle have been upgraded to life-saving pills?"

Yuyu replied: "Master, there are three kinds of pills and eight pills around these days."

Li Jingjing took eight life-saving pills of different colors, and hurried out of the pharmacy, packed them in porcelain bottles, and handed them to Qu's.

Li Laoshi put the reply letter and the seven-layer medicine bottle wrapped in oilcloth and cotton cloth in his arms, and immediately went to Taihe Town, and handed it to the fat boss of the inn in the usual way.

In the 30th year of Shenshi, when the winter sun went down, every household in Qujia Village set off firecrackers in front of the door according to the custom of Tanzhou Prefecture.The Li family waited for Li Laoshi to come back, and immediately set up a New Year's Eve dinner.

In the yard, Li Yunqing hung four firecrackers on the broken stool and ignited them at the same time. The sound of the cannons was deafening. Li Yunxiao stood aside, covering his ears, screaming and jumping, extremely happy.

The Li family all came to the table, cheering and laughing, clinking glasses with wine bowls, and eating a very rich and delicious meal with chopsticks.

Li Jingjing had just eaten half a big chicken drumstick, when men and women cried loudly outside, the door of the main room was slapped violently, and a man shouted: "Aunt Zhu, quickly open the door to save lives."

Mochizuki was the fastest, and ran to open the door, the cold wind hit his face, Qu Langzhong rushed in first, followed by a tearful young couple, the man was holding a comatose little child in both hands.

This young couple is the nephew and nephew's wife of the old brigade chief of the Qu tribe, and Xi Yazi is Qu Zheng who often helps Li Jingjing dig herbs and catch animals.

Li Qubing stood up and saw that Qu Zheng's face was covered in blood and he couldn't see his face clearly. A few silver needles were stuck in important acupuncture points on his face and neck. He cried out in fright and covered his eyes with his hands.

Li Yunxiao was so frightened that he was stupid, He Shi was afraid that he would have nightmares at night, so he picked him up and carried him to the bedroom.

Li Jingjing was startled, put down the chicken legs, jumped off the stool, followed Master Li to have a look.

Quzheng's cotton-padded jacket front bodice was broken into pieces, revealing the cotton wool inside, his eyes were closed tightly, and the black debris on his face was mixed with the bright red blood, which was terrifying and frightening.

Qu Langzhong was called down from the New Year's Eve dinner table by Qu Zheng's parents, with a grain of glutinous rice sticking to the corner of his mouth, he said anxiously to Qu Shi: "Aunt Zhu, Zheng Yazi burst his eyes with a firecracker, I'll take his pulse, gunpowder The poison has entered the blood, the heartbeat is weak, and the breath is weak, I am afraid that I will not be able to survive tonight."

The Li family was so shocked that they got out of the dining table and came over to look at Qu Zheng.

Qu Langzhong pleaded: "Aunt Zhu, the antidote in my medicine box can cure snake poison, but not fire poison, so it can't save him. Ask Pharmacist Li if there is any medicine to remove fire poison, so as to save Zhengyazi's life." ?”

Ever since he learned that Li Jingjing had a pharmacist's document, he never called her "Sister Jing" again.

Seeing Qu Zheng's tragic appearance, Qu's was so sad that she wanted to cry, she turned her head and asked: "Sister Jing, do you have any medicine to get rid of fire poison?"

"Let me take a look at his injuries first." Li Jingjing's face was serious, and she stepped forward and asked Li Qubing to put the two chairs together, and asked Qu Zheng's father to put Qu Zhengping on it.

Li Yunqing frowned, and said in doubt: "Brother Zheng has always been a steady and smart child, how could setting off firecrackers make his face collapse?"

Qu Zhengniang hammered her chest with both fists and broke down in tears, and said, "It's all my fault. My heart was covered with lard. A few days ago, in order to save some money, I didn't buy firecrackers in the town. Homemade firecrackers."

The Li family has seen earth firecrackers in the mountains. Each one is three times the size of ordinary firecrackers.

There are two kinds of people who buy firecrackers, one is greedy for cheap and save some money, and the other is for excitement.Qu Zhengniang is obviously the former.

Quzheng's family was poor, and Quzhengniang was careful to live her life. She wanted to spend a copper coin in two. It was a waste to set off firecrackers during the New Year, but she had to buy them. In order to save a few copper coins, she bought firecrackers.

Unexpectedly, such a tragedy happened, and she would feel guilty towards her son for the rest of her life.

Qu Zheng's father knelt down and put his hands on his head and cried: "It's my fault. I was the one who set off the firecrackers. I was greedy for wine and meat at the table and refused to move. Zheng Yazi went there. At first, he couldn’t light it with a torch, so he took a burning firewood from the kitchen to light it, and the earth firecrackers exploded all at once, smashing his face.”

Quzheng's grandfather and grandmother rushed over panting. They were all in their sixties, and they knelt down and kowtowed as soon as they entered the door.

Grandpa Quzheng said: "Sister Zhu, please let your sister Jing make life-saving pills to save the life of my Zhengyazi."

Granny Quzheng hugged Qushi's thigh and cried, "Sister Zhu, I only have one grandson, Zhengyazi. He is my life. Please ask your sister Jing to save him."

Just as Qu Shi was about to speak, she noticed Li Laoshi's gaze and turned her head to see him shaking his head lightly. She didn't react at first, and suddenly thought that all the Baoming pills made by Li Jingjing were brought to Li Bing this afternoon, and none was left behind.

She thought to herself: Why is Qu Zheng's life so bad? If this happened yesterday, he would have taken life-saving pills to save his life.

Mrs. He asked Mrs. Qu, who wiped away tears, to help Qu Zheng's grandparents up first, and persuaded: "If sister Jing can be saved, I will definitely do my best to save her."

Li Jingjing wiped off the greasy hands with a handkerchief, and felt Qu Zheng's pulse. The situation was more serious than Qu Langzhong described. Fortunately, Qu Langzhong sealed Qu Zheng's acupoints with silver needles to control the fire poison from spreading to the brain and heart. .

"Don't cry, brother Zheng's life can be saved, but his eyes may not be saved."

Quzheng's four elders were overjoyed at first, and then wept bitterly when they heard that Quzheng would be blind.

"You cry will affect Brother Zheng's emotions. He will cry when he feels uncomfortable, and he can't keep his eyes." Li Jingjing turned around and looked around at Quzheng's elders, and said solemnly: "If you don't cry, comfort and encourage Brother Zheng. He is in a good mood. If you don’t cry, your eyes can recover their vision little by little.”

When she treated Qu Yi's bone injury before, Qu Yi's mother, Li Shi, cried every day, which greatly affected Qu Yi's mood, until one day she couldn't help it and broke out and scolded Li Shi. As soon as Li Shi saw her, she showed a smile that was almost crying.
