Datang Imperial Physician

Chapter 166

Xie Jiu folded his hands on his chest, looked at the Taoist priest a few times, stretched out his hand to hold Wei Jia, and said a few words in a low voice that only two people could hear. The Taoist glanced twice, nodded, and then Xie Jiu said a few more words, Wei Jia was dumbfounded: "Isn't it? Must you do this?"

Xie Jiu nodded, with an expression of "you are the bravest", didn't speak, just looked at it, and pushed Wei Jia up.Wei Jia showed a wry smile, with the tragic and strong feeling of heroic sacrifice, he took a step forward, saluted with a smile, and said very gently and politely: "This high-ranking Taoist priest invited me, and Wei Jia, who is my wife, is the husband and wife of us?" The attending doctor of the Western Medicine Center."

The Taoist still looked like a master of Taoism, and returned to Wei Zhi with a salute, saying: "Poverty Taoist Wang Dansheng, the ancestor of the family is the Taoist priest Fu Renjun. He has met Master Wei, and the names of Master Wei and his wife. However, I will look forward to it for a long time."

Who is Fu Renjun?Wei Chi really doesn't know, from Wang Dansheng's tone, it seems like a big boss, isn't there only Li Chunfeng and Yuan Tiangang in the Taoist bosses of the Tang Dynasty?Oh, his brother Sun Dayi seems to be a Taoist priest too, but Taoist priests are sideline jobs, and doctors are the main job. Who is this Fu Renjun?Why did you teach such a disciple who harmed the people?Probably not a good bird.

Wei Jia felt that anyone he didn't know or heard of would be classified as a historical figure who was not well-known, influential, or powerful enough. Who made him not well-known was not because Wei Jia looked down on him.

Wei Chi said with a smile: "It turns out that Taoist Fu Renjun is your ancestor, I'm sorry."

Wang Dansheng is not proud, he still looks like a fairy, very polite and graceful to thank Wei Jia for his admiration for his ancestors, no matter how you look at it, he doesn't look like a magic stick who cheats on food and drink.No wonder in detective novels, the one who is the least likely to be a murderer is always the real murderer.

"The Daoist said just now that there is a elixir. I don't know if I am lucky enough to see it. I have never seen what the elixir looks like in my blessing book. Can the Daoist give it to me?"

Wang Dansheng said with a smile: "Master Wei, please forgive me for being impolite. Pills are the property of immortals, and outsiders who have no chance can't see them. This is the rule, please forgive me."

Wang Dansheng opened his mouth to smile, and immediately showed his yellow teeth. Wei Jia stood a little closer, and immediately smelled a bad smell, and he still had bad breath.Wei Zhidao made a regretful expression: "It seems that I am really underwhelmed. I also know a thing or two about alchemy. I don't know whether the long elixir is made by fire or water?"

Wang Dansheng was a little surprised, and said: "Unexpectedly, Master Wei is also familiar with this way. The pill of the poor way also uses the method of water and fire, to transport the fire of Yin and Yang, and the water of the sun and Taiyin. It is made by refining for seven to forty-nine days. Take this pill , seek good luck and avoid evil, get rid of all misfortunes, strengthen the body, prolong life, and the benefits are endless. It is extremely difficult to refine, and I specially asked for it from the master, and it is exclusively for Young Master Bai."

Wei Chi stood a little further away, unable to stand Wang Dansheng's bad breath, and then asked: "Master Wang Dao is famous, so he must be blessed to take elixir often, right?"

Wang Dansheng pretended to be modest, but in fact he was full of embarrassment, and said: "Poverty Dao is lucky to have Master teach alchemy, and he has some experience in this Dao. Help."

"The Taoist priest is compassionate and has immeasurable merits, which is admirable. The Taoist priest has such a noble character. There is a saying that I can't help it. I want to ask the Taoist priest for advice."

"Master Wei, please tell me."

"Could the Taoist priest open his mouth and show me?"

Everyone present was stunned, including Wang Dansheng himself. We can only say that Wei Jia's request is too weird.Wang Dansheng was displeased and said, "Master Wei, why did you open your mouth? In front of the public, it's really insulting and extremely rude. Sorry for the impoverishment."

Wei Chi sighed: "I'm doing it for the good of the Daoist. I don't say that the long teeth are yellow, accompanied by bad breath and slight salivation symptoms. I want to help the Taoist to see if there is any inflammation in the mouth, tongue, throat, etc. , this is for the health of the Taoist priest!"

Wang Dansheng said with a smile: "Master Wei is indeed a miracle doctor, he can diagnose diseases without needing to feel the pulse, and his reputation is well-deserved. Pindao has indeed suffered from the illness that Lord Wei said recently, and his teacher also suffers from this disease, but the teacher has already opened a furnace to make alchemy , it will be released soon, when the time comes, after taking the pill, everything will get better, don't bother Doctor Wei."

Wei Jia sighed, this is to save his life, and he still thinks he is troublesome.Looking at each other helplessly with Xie Jiu, Wei Jia said: "It's fine if the Daoist Wang doesn't believe what I said, you can continue to take the pills, and don't forget to ask your disciples and grandchildren to prepare the coffin. The more pills you take, the faster you will die, Daoist!" Please come back, as long as the patient stays with me for a day, I will not let the Taoist priest’s elixir be given to the patient. You don’t cherish life, but I do! Erhu, please get this Taoist priest out! Also, Wei Wen, go and report to the officials, saying that someone is going to murder my patients, please ask the officials to maintain order and protect my patients."

"Master Wei, although Pindao is just an outsider, he is not someone who will be bullied by others. Please think twice, Mrs. Bai. Mrs. Bai, Pindao doesn't want to stay here anymore. Please bring Sun out, and Pindao will give him a way to exorcise evil spirits." , and leave after taking the elixir."

The conflict between the two parties shocked the old lady and the Confucian scholar's family. At this time, hearing Wang Dansheng say this, the old lady Bai hesitated. After all, what Wei Chi said was so convincing that human life is at stake, and I don't know if it is true or not. But even if it was fake, old lady Bai didn't have the courage to gamble, she only has one grandson.

Wei Zhi smiled lightly, and said coolly: "Mr. Wang, Mr. Bai is already a patient of mine, so I don't need to bother you. You should worry about yourself. By the way, I would like to advise you one last time, Nadan Do not take the medicine, your current symptoms, in my case, are called metal poisoning! I don’t know what metal poisoning is, right? It’s okay, go back and check your alchemy recipes, and see if there is mercury or gold ore in the alchemy materials. ? Your symptoms are poisoned by the two.”

Speaking of this, Wei Jia paused, and sighed: "To be honest, metal poisoning, to your level, we can't cure it. If you stop taking the pill, you may be able to live a few more days. If you Continue to take the elixir, Immeasurable Venerable, I hope Daozu Sanqing will take pity on your piousness and help you become enlightened."

Wei Jia's words made Xie Jiu smile slightly, shook his head, stepped forward, and said, "This Taoist priest, what my husband said is right, you should stop the elixir and take detoxification and detoxification things quickly, so as not to Lost your life."

Although Wei Chi's attitude was not serious enough, it was mostly a little emotion. The intentions of the two were still good. Unfortunately, Wang Dansheng didn't appreciate it. There are more than tens of millions of people who take pills, how can there be a word of poisoning? The ignorant words of ordinary people, false comments on gods, their crimes should be punished, be careful of heaven's punishment!"

God's punishment has come out!That guy Wei Chi had the urge to laugh, but considering the social environment, he endured it.Xie Jiu was very patient, and said: "Master Dao, cinnabar, gold stones, etc. are commonly used in elixir recipes, right? Cinnabar is a good medicine with slight toxicity. It is used for palpitations, insomnia, dreaminess, epilepsy, and children Convulsions, blurred vision, mouth sores, sore throat, sore swelling, etc. Taking a small amount is a good medicine, but it should not be taken for a long time or overdose. Long-term and overdose will cause toxicity in the body and damage the heart meridian, liver and kidney Wait, because cinnabar is used less in Danfang, and its toxicity is weak, so the effect will not appear for a while, but if it is taken for a long time or in large quantities, it may cause kidney failure. I have seen the symptoms of Daochang, whether he has insomnia and dreams recently, Loss of appetite, sore throat, accompanied by vomiting? Is there pain in the lower back?"

Wang Dansheng was stunned for a moment, looking at Xie Jiu's expression and expression, it really didn't look like he was lying to him, and said slowly: "Pindao has indeed experienced the symptoms mentioned by his wife recently, but these symptoms are related to the Heart Sutra. According to medical theory, it is the cinnabar The range of efficacy, taking the elixir refined with cinnabar, is just the right medicine!"

Xie Jiu patiently continued: "That's not the case. When... when you get sick, you can't judge by the external symptoms alone, but also investigate the cause. For some diseases, because the symptoms are similar at the time of onset, it is easy to misdiagnose and ignore. It is best to Find a professional doctor for diagnosis and treatment, and don’t take medicine indiscriminately, so as not to delay the illness, minor illnesses will become serious illnesses, and serious illnesses will become incurable. From my point of view, pills are not in favor of taking them.”

Xie Jiu spoke eloquently, which was very convincing. The onlookers nodded their heads, but Wei Jia snickered, and her sister almost said clinically.

The old lady Bai stepped forward and asked cautiously: "Doctor, that old grandson, will he...will..."

As he asked, tears flowed down his face, with a regretful expression.Xie Jiu sighed silently, and said: "Young Master Bai's illness has dragged on for too long. Even if the fever subsides, I am afraid there will be sequelae. After he wakes up, let's observe it. At present, I can only give you Such an answer."

"Wen'er!"

The child's mother whimpered and began to cry, looking at the old lady Bai's eyes, she was very resentful, the Confucian scholar opened his mouth, wanted to say something, but couldn't say anything, he looked at his wife apologetically, and looked at his mother helplessly, but there was nothing Said, holding his head and sitting aside, weeping silently.

"Pindao has a little understanding of medical theory, this Daoist brother, can I ask Pindao to check the pulse to verify what Mrs. Wei said?"

Just when there was a mess, a middle-aged man in Taoist robes came out again, with black beard and black hair, and a red face.Wei Chi frowned, looked up at the sky, and really wanted to ask, is it Taoist Day today?Why are there so many bull-nosed Taoist priests coming to his territory to make trouble!
Xie Jiu was calm and relaxed, standing dignified and graceful, with a cold expression and confident eyes, he didn't say anything to the proposal of the middle-aged Taoist priest, just looked at Wang Dansheng.Wang Dansheng hesitated for a moment, thought for a while, and nodded in agreement.The middle-aged Taoist priest stepped forward and took Wang Dansheng's pulse.

Wei Jia leaned over to Xie Jiu, and muttered in a low voice: "It seems that I should really go to the temple to worship tomorrow, and it's really time for Laba Festival to come."

"How?" Xie Jiu asked in a low voice.With a serious face, Wei Jia said: "I met two Taoist priests today, and they both came to make trouble. We are really unlucky."

Xie Jiu smiled and said angrily, "It's funny."

The young couple muttered here, Dahu and Erhu came over honestly, and asked Wei Chi for instructions: "Master, do you still throw people away?"

As he said, Xie Jiu laughed with a look of eagerness to fight. Wei Jia hurriedly made hand gestures to let the two of them stay together. Jiu stood behind him, euphemistically called bodyguards for the two of them, he looked, not to mention, a bit of a look.

The Taoist closed his eyes, stroked his beard, and checked his pulse for a long time. In the eyes of everyone, he slowly opened his eyes, put away the smile on his face, and said seriously: "It's true, as Mrs. Wei said, the Heart Sutra, Liver, and Kidney The damage is huge, Mrs. Wei, poor Daoist Li Chunfeng, please be polite."

Li Chunfeng? !Super big big boss!Not only the young couple Wei and Xie were surprised, but even Wang Dansheng was greatly surprised. Immediately, his face blushed, he looked at Li Chunfeng with star eyes of admiration, and saluted respectfully: "So it's senior, junior king!" Dan Sheng, I have met my senior."

When the onlookers heard that it was Li Chunfeng, they hurriedly saluted. Some were called Li Daochang, and some were called Li Shenxian. They all had pious faces and almost worshiped Li Chunfeng as a god. The urge to treat her little grandson.

Wei Jia and Xie Jiu looked at each other, and saluted together: "It turns out to be Li Daochang, I have admired him for a long time."

Li Chunfeng quickly returned the salute, with a serious face, and said: "Mrs. Wei, I have a few questions for the poor, please ask Mrs. Wei to solve the doubts of the poor."

"Lee Daochang, please tell me."

"Pindao Taoist Wang Daoyou did have the symptoms his wife said. These were really caused by cinnabar poisoning? Pindao has a little knowledge of medical science. "Shen Nong's Materia Medica" once said that cinnabar is sweet, slightly cold, and non-toxic. Treatment The five viscera of the body can nourish the spirit, soothe the soul, nourish qi, improve eyesight, kill spirits and evil ghosts. Take it for a long time to enlighten the gods, not grow old, and can be turned into mercury. Healthy valley. Madam Wei agrees?"

Xie Jiu said: "Most of them agree. I don't agree with the saying that it is non-toxic, long-term use can lead to gods, and immortality! The usage of cinnabar not only pays attention to the amount, but also pays attention to the method. It is absolutely forbidden to heat and fire. Cinnabar is originally slightly poisonous. Taking it can effectively treat diseases. After heating and calcining, the toxicity will increase, and it will turn from a good medicine to a murderous weapon! Pills are mostly refined by water and fire. After heating and calcining, the toxicity of cinnabar will increase. It doubles the toxicity, let alone taking it for a long time, even taking a large amount at one time can be life-threatening!"

"Is "Shen Nong's Materia Medica" wrong?"

Wei Jia is good at debating right and wrong, and patted Xie Jiuxiang on the shoulder, signaling her to back down.Xie Jiu showed a smile, stepped aside obediently, and performed for Wei Chi. The couple cooperated tacitly, and whoever should be in the field, in short, set a policy - all enemies are paper tigers!
