From Jiu Shu's world

Chapter 12

"Brother Zhang, come to have breakfast."

Before Ren Tingting entered the door, her crisp voice had already entered the yard. Since she got the promise that day, she got up early every day and went to Henry Zhang’s medical hall, bringing breakfast.

In the first few days, Henry Zhang declined a few times, but later found that it was really fragrant.

Although Ren Tingting is the eldest lady in the family, the breakfast is really good.

Henry Zhang put away the toad clothes to be dried, and replied while washing his hands: "You go to the lobby first, and I will come after washing my hands."

When Henry Zhang entered the lobby, the food box had been put aside, and Ren Tingting had already set up the dishes.

White porridge, pickles, a plate of tea eggs, and a drawer of steamed buns, the portion for two people is really big.

"Hehe, do you want to eat Xiaolongbao today? Not bad."

"I just learned it from the dim sum master at home yesterday, Brother Zhang, please try it."

When Ren Tingting heard that Henry Zhang loves to eat, she was immediately elated. Her mother taught her rightly. If you want to grasp a man’s heart, you must first grasp the man’s stomach. Thinking about it, she gave Henry Zhang a small steamed bun.

Henry Zhang took the steamed bun, put it in his mouth, chewed, and said vaguely: "Tingting, you sit down and eat too, you came so early, you didn't have breakfast, did you?"

Ren Tingting also sat down and had breakfast, but [-]% of her attention was on Henry Zhang.

"Brother Zhang, what are we learning today?" Ren Tingting asked aloud while eating breakfast.Although she came to help in order to get in touch with Henry Zhang, it does not mean that she is not interested in studying medicine. After all, this is not taught in girls’ schools.

Well, what's more, if you study medicine, you will have more common topics.

Ren Tingting: Witty Girl ()*
Henry Zhang thought for a while, and said: "If there are no patients coming, then let's identify the medicinal materials first."

Strange to say, although Henry Zhang said on the door link that only the doctor died, he didn't know whether it was because of curiosity or because of an emergency. These days, he has also received a lot of common ailments.

After all, when a patient comes to the door, how can a doctor refuse him?This time and time again, the clean and neat methods of treatment and the way of treating people with kindness spread, and many patients came one after another.

Seeing such a situation, Henry Zhang simply changed his method, only diagnosing, taking less medicine, and prescribing a prescription for the villagers to go to the pharmacy to get medicine.One reason for doing this is to make profits, and the other is that the medicines in his medical center are really not enough. After all, there are not many common medicinal materials in this medical center, and more are medicinal materials for refining Gu.

After all, there are only three kinds of refining Gu, living Gu, dead Gu, and spirit Gu.Living Gu refines living things, and dead Gu is used as medicine stone, that is, mixing Gu insects and medicinal materials. As for spirit Gu, there are very few of them.But no matter what kind, medicinal materials are indispensable.

Returning to the original topic, Ren Tingting and Henry Zhang finished their breakfast and were cleaning up the dishes, and they were going to the yard to recognize the medicinal materials after they were done.

Suddenly, there was an urgent cry for help from outside the door: "Doctor Zhang, it's not good, something happened to Xiaoliu's family, please go and see with me."

Henry Zhang turned his head and saw a middle-aged man in white clothes with dark skin and spots of muddy water on his trousers. He seemed to be a farmer.It's just that the middle-aged man's face was full of anxiety, and he was panting heavily while wiping the sweat off his forehead.

"Brother Wang, what's going on?"

"Little...Little Six's family, all of them fainted, their eyes, nostrils, nostrils, and mouth are covered with blood, and their faces are terribly purple. They are about to die, you...you come with me."

Hearing the words, Henry Zhang looked solemn: "I'll go there now, Brother Wang, you will lead the way."

"Tingting, come after you, I'll go first."

After Henry Zhang finished speaking, he quickly took down the purple gourd hanging on the side, and hurriedly ran out with Brother Wang.

Little Liu's real name is Sun Liu, and he lives at the east end of Renjia Town, on the side near the river.The family of three lives by farming, and they also work part-time jobs during the off-season to earn some money.

Originally, today I made an appointment with Wang Daguang to help his family transplant rice seedlings, and it is most normal for this farmer to help each other.Wang Daguang didn't think too much, he came to the edge of the field early in the morning, but he waited and waited, but no one came.Feeling strange in my heart, I faintly felt that something happened, so I went to Xiaoliuzi's house to have a look.

Good guy, it doesn't matter if you don't look at it, when you look at it, you're so frightened that you can't see it.I saw Xiao Liuzi's family of three lying on the ground, their faces purple and blue, like a piece of frozen purple sweet potato, and what was even more frightening was the blood from the ears and nose, which made the three of them hideous, like evil spirits.

This Wang Daguang was so frightened that he only trembled as if he had lost his soul, but he still remembered to probe Tan Xiaoliuzi's nose with his hand, and the faint panting sound woke him up, while shouting: "There is help, there is help!" He ran to Henry Zhang up.

These things were told by Wang Daguang on the road to Henry Zhang.The two hurried all the way, and when they arrived at Sun Liu's house, there were already circles of villagers watching the excitement outside the door.

When Wang Daguang saw it, he rushed forward, and while pushing aside the crowd, he shouted: "Give way, everyone, let the doctor go in and save people."

Although the crowd likes to watch the excitement, when they heard this voice, they quickly moved out of the way to let Henry Zhang in, after all, human life is at stake.Henry Zhang skipped through the crowd, and when he entered the door, he was startled by the scene in front of him. The family of three fell to the ground, knocked down chairs all over the floor, the bowls and chopsticks were overturned, and the porridge was scattered everywhere.The mess in this room is still light, the three people lying on the ground, their faces are black and red with blood, and their faces are purple and blue, they look three points uglier than dead people.

Henry Zhang’s face is serious, and this kind of face is probably not an ordinary poison.

Henry Zhang squatted down, reached out and touched the neck of the male host Sun Liu, his pulse was very weak, like a hanging thread blown by the breeze, and the candle was about to die.I tried Sun Liu's wife and children again, and the pulse was similar.Henry Zhang breathed a sigh of relief, fortunately, they are still alive.

Henry Zhang opened the purple gourd, and chanted a mantra in his mouth: "Heaven and Earth Xuanling, Gu transforms all things, sick Gu detoxifies, go."

Flying out of the gourd was a white leech, about an inch long, and its color was like fat. It was not dark and scary like ordinary leeches, but rather cute.But the next action is really not cute. The three leeches flew towards the throats of the family of three, and then fell on them fiercely. The soft body of the white leeches began to wriggle up and down, which is clearly sucking blood. look.

"Doctor Zhang, this is."

The people around were stunned when they saw this. Why did they release this strange leech? What is it for?
Henry Zhang shook his head, stood up and explained: “They are poisoned, and the white blood leeches are sucking out the toxin.”

This white blood leech is one of the sons of Zhang Xuan's disease Gu. One mother divides into a hundred sons, and each hundred sons are different. The mother Gu of this sickness can naturally absorb and release all kinds of diseases. Now white blood leeches are used to absorb this Unknown toxins can suppress the spread of toxicity, but if the source of the poison cannot be found, it is not easy to detoxify the poison.Unless he uses the heart of his Henry Zhang disease Gu mother Gu ghost-eyed toad.

Strange to say, this ghost-eyed toad was born in a tomb and now in a plague. It is good at eating rot, swallowing the breath of disease, swallowing all diseases, taking off the toad's clothes, and turning into a golden toad. Its blood can heal all diseases and dispel all poisons. Its heart becomes the source of all poisons, the root of all diseases, and it will kill you if you touch it.The ghost-eyed toad that has not yet turned into the three-eyed golden toad is just the opposite. Its blood contains all kinds of poisons, and only the heart can cure all diseases.

Henry Zhang also just explained the word detoxification to the people around him, and then started to turn around the house on his own. The appearance of porridge water all over the place seems to be that a family of three got poisoned after eating this porridge.Henry Zhang scooped up the porridge with a spoon, and looked carefully, this pot of light yellow gruel, a few slices of ginger, and...
Wait, this is.
There is a thin and long spine in the spoon, which seems to be the spine of an eel, but it is much thicker, like a snake bone.

Henry Zhang's face was a little ugly, and he walked quickly to the side of the water tank, lifted the lid, took a closer look, and sighed: "It really is this."

I saw a half-person-high, one-meter-wide black porcelain jar filled with a half-meter-long eel with a thick forearm. This eel was just like an ordinary eel, except for its size.

Wang Daguang next to him came in to take a look, and said in surprise: "This doctor, what is this?" Wang Daguang thought it was a rice field eel when he saw it at first sight, but he hesitated immediately when he saw Henry Zhang's appearance, and asked hesitantly.

Henry Zhang sighed, and said: "The moon-watching eel lives in deep caves and water tombs. It likes to eat carrion, cat and dog corpses. It hides in deep caves and does not see the sky. It is half a sixteenth month and the full moon comes out. Look up." As for Mochizuki, its shape is the same as that of a normal eel, except that its body is more than three feet long, which is several times larger than a normal eel. Its body is highly poisonous, and it will kill you if you eat it."

Henry Zhang paused, and then explained: "Mr. Ji Xiaolan's strange case, have you heard about it? In that strange case, the peasant woman felt sorry for her husband, and gave her husband the moon eel by mistake, poisoned her to death, and was imprisoned unjustly. It was Mr. Ji Xiaolan who was astute, Try to catch eels in the middle of the month, separate out the moon-watching eels from tens of millions of eels, feed the dogs to test the poison, and solve the grievances. You look at the eels, which are half a meter long, and the forearm of an adult is thick. Where can there be such a rice field eel? This is The moon-watching eel in that story is very poisonous. I don’t know whether the Sun Liu’s family was unlucky or lucky. The moon-watching eel should have been caught when the moon was full the day before yesterday. I didn’t expect to catch two of them, one big and one small. Said They were unlucky because they caught the moon-watching eel and ate it. They said they were lucky because the family was reluctant to eat the big one and used the small one to make porridge. If they used the big one, they would be hopeless today."

"hiss"

The people around gasped. They didn't expect that the rice field eel would have such a reason. If we didn't know it and caught the moon-watching eel, wouldn't it be us who were unlucky?Renjia Town is not big, but it is not small. The general townspeople rely on mountains to eat mountains, and water to eat water. Who has the experience of going to the fields to catch fish and eels?Now that I think about it, my back is sweating.

When Henry Zhang saw this, he shook his head and said in relief: "Don't worry, everyone. This moon-watching eel will only come out of the hole on the night of the [-]th of each month, when the moon is at its roundest, and look up at the moon. If you catch eels and avoid this day, generally It will be fine. If you really catch a big eel like this, I don’t know if it’s a moon eel. If you don’t dare to eat it, you can take it to the Yin Yang Medical Center. Eel people, if there were, you would also know the saying that eels are not caught on the sixteenth day of the month."

Henry Zhang explained, but his hand reached into the water tank like a thunderbolt, grabbed the head of the moon-watching eel the size of a forearm, and grabbed the water tank, but the little finger of his left hand crossed the moon-watching eel’s belly, and picked up a drop of bright red water with his fingertips. eel blood.Then he put it back, flipped it over with his right hand, the purple gourd was in his hand, opened the lid, and shouted: "Ghost-eyed toad comes out."
