Chapter 139 She is sick



Shopkeeper Liu was startled, and the woman was also startled.

They had just seen Miss Jun's attire and knew what she did. Although it was a bit strange for a little girl to be a bell doctor, it was acceptable.

Even if the little girl stopped them, they could accept it.

To put it bluntly, being a bell doctor is like being a beggar, you always have to open your mouth to solicit business.

But I never expected that the girl would not ask about the doctor or medicine, but that you have a bad omen.

ominous sign.

Nowadays, bell doctors and fortune tellers use the same opening line?

The woman was caught off guard and was a little stunned, but after she came to her senses, she spat at the ground with some anger.

"Pooh," she said. "Bad luck."

The maids also reacted and pushed Miss Jun with angry faces.

"Go away, go away," they shouted.

Liu'er held the banner and blocked them.

"What are you doing! My lady said you have ominous signs, so you have ominous signs!" she shouted with raised eyebrows.

Having never seen such a ferocious girl before, these people were so frightened that they didn't move for a while.

Taking advantage of the opportunity, Miss Jun bowed again with a smile, while pulling Liu'er behind her.

"Madam, I am the doctor of Jiuling Hall. I see that your face is depressed, your forehead is dark, and your steps are weak. I guess you can't sleep at night these days, and you are easily frightened and depressed." She said softly, "Madam's body will not be able to bear it if this continues. This is a very bad omen."

After hearing what she said, the maids came to their senses and looked even more embarrassed.

"What nonsense are you talking about?" they scolded.

Shopkeeper Liu also shook his head. In fact, fortune-telling is similar to bell doctors. Doctors need to observe, smell, ask and palpate. So do fortune-tellers. This observation, smell, ask and palpate is to see if the other party is the scapegoat they want to rip off. Observe his complexion, ask him indirectly about his concerns, act on the wind, and get to the point of knowing exactly what he is thinking. Only then can one be called an iron-clad person.

The woman in front of me is obviously full of energy and looks happy. Miss Jun, how can you be so tactless? You insist on saying that she looks depressed. Her forehead is dark.

As expected, the woman also laughed and shook her head.

"Okay, okay, I won't argue with you, kid." She said. She waved to the maid, "Give this kid two coins and let her go."

As expected, the maid took out some money and stuffed it into Liu'er's arms while she was holding Fan'er.

"Say something auspicious next time you ask for money," she said angrily.

Liu'er was about to curse again, but Miss Jun held her down and made her shake her head.

The woman ignored her and walked forward.

"Madam, it's okay if you don't want to cure the disease. But if you want to have a quieter night and have a few good days, just sprinkle a handful of pine needles by the door and it won't dare to come in." Miss Jun said.

Hearing these words in broad daylight, Shopkeeper Liu couldn't help but shudder.

Is this a threat or a curse?

It's so scary.

The maids and servants over there were even more angry.

"What are you talking about!" they shouted.

Miss Jun ignored them, bowed slightly, turned around and walked away, continuing to ring the bell in her hand.

Liu Er also snorted at these people and followed them, waving the banner.

Shopkeeper Liu shook his head and walked past these people with a slightly tilted face. The maids were still pointing at Miss Jun's back and cursing angrily.

"I don't know where this weird thing came from."

"What bad luck."

"Under the emperor's feet today, even children are cheating."

"She said something called Jiulingtang. What is Jiulingtang?"

Shopkeeper Liu walked past them quickly with his face tilted to the side, fearing that he would be recognized and implicated.

"Okay." It was the woman who said, "Go back."

The group then continued walking angrily. The crisp sound of bells faded away in the alley. Shopkeeper Liu looked back and saw that the woman was also looking back at him with a thoughtful expression.

Now, he must be wondering what’s going on with Jiulingtang. Someone is bound to come to visit again.

Shopkeeper Liu shook his head and quickened his pace as he walked out.

. ……

"Miss Jun, what happened to that woman just now?"

Fortunately, after leaving here, Miss Jun did not go shopping again and went straight back to Jiuling Hall.

Shopkeeper Liu did not hide anymore and followed directly in, asking straight to the point.

"It's obvious that she is the patient I'm looking for." said Miss Jun.

"So you've been traveling around the capital for so many days just for her?" asked Shopkeeper Liu.

Miss Jun shook her head again.

"It's for patients like her, to be exact," she said.

Her kind?

Shopkeeper Liu let out a breath.

"Miss Jun, forgive me for being blunt," he said, "Are you planning to cheat or hit me?"

What does this mean?

Liu'er, who was standing aside, suddenly widened her eyes.

Miss Jun smiled first and put down the teacup.

"Manager Liu, how can this be a scam?" she said.

"If this isn't a scam, what is it? Even good and bad luck, ghosts and gods have come out." said the shopkeeper Liu.

"Ghosts arise from the heart, and spirits arise from the mind." Miss Jun said, "When illness comes, the mind becomes confused, and when the energy is weak, evil spirits enter. This is not about ghosts or gods. Otherwise, why do people always say that a weak person is more likely to be attracted by evil spirits? In fact, it is because he is weak, his energy is scattered, and his mind is easily confused."

Shopkeeper Liu was stunned when he heard this.

"So you mean the woman is really sick?" he asked.

"Of course it's true." Miss Jun said.

Shopkeeper Liu thought about it for a long time, recalling the woman's appearance and behavior.

"Why can't I tell that she is sick?" he couldn't help but say.

"Because I am a doctor and you are not." Miss Jun said with a smile.

This statement makes so much sense that it is impossible to refute it.

Shopkeeper Liu was speechless.

"Of course I noticed that she was different from ordinary people. Otherwise, why did I travel for so many days and meet so many people, but only stopped at her?" Miss Jun continued.

Yes, that does make sense.

"But if you say she is ill, then she is ill. How can you say it is a serious omen?" Shopkeeper Liu said, "Isn't that a bit too careless?"

"Illness and fatality are certainly omen of evil," Miss Jun said seriously.

This was a serious lie, and Shopkeeper Liu finally understood.

I don’t know who he learned this unruly behavior from.

Doctor Jun is a doctor, and his family has been practicing medicine for generations. Doctors from such aristocratic families are the most particular and rigorous. Jun Yingwen is an official and a disciple of a sage, so he does not talk about strange things.

Why does Miss Jun speak like this? She seems very gentle and serious, but if you think about it carefully, it is pure nonsense.

Since I'm talking nonsense, I just don't want to tell him the real reason.

Shopkeeper Liu is not a child. He knows what he can ask and what he cannot ask, and knows when to stop.

"But Miss Jun," he said, "I understand what you said to me, but the other party doesn't. If you say this, the other party will not believe you at all, let alone let you treat the disease."

Miss Jun said "Oh".

"She will," she said.

So determined?

"Why?" Shopkeeper Liu couldn't help but ask.

"Because she is sick." Miss Jun said.

I am sick too, Shopkeeper Liu said to himself, I shouldn't have asked.
