Chapter 23: Healing and Saving Lives
"Ah!" Lin Wen screamed in pain, covered his stomach, and knelt on the ground.
Although Lin Dahu was a bit clumsy, he was not stupid. When he saw that even Lin Wen couldn't deal with these three people, he immediately turned around and wanted to run away.
Lin Qian stood in front of him and kicked him over, hitting Lin Wen.
"Ah! You, what do you want to do?" Lin Dahu lay on his back on Lin Wen, his fat body shaking, and he was almost scared to tears.
Lin Shuo squatted on the ground and patted his fat face, causing ripples on his face like waves.
"Big Tiger, you're so fierce! If I threw you up in the mountains, would the wolves eat you?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Lin Dahu started shaking all over like a sieve, and his pants got wet immediately.
Lin Dahu cried, "No! Don't throw me into the mountains to feed the wolves. I know I was wrong. I will never bother you again."
Lin Wen was lying under Lin Dahu, and the whole urine was poured onto him. He was already injured in the stomach and calves.
This made him even more embarrassed, but Lin Dahu was fat, so he could only be pinned down and unable to move.
"What about you? Lin Wen, do you want to be thrown into the mountains to feed the wolves?" Lin Shuo asked Lin Wen again.
Lin Wen shook his head. He was about to be crushed to death. "No, I don't want to. I won't bother you anymore. Hurry and get him up."
As the saying goes, a dog will always eat shit, so the three of them naturally didn't believe what Lin Wen said. However, it was getting late, so they had to go back for lunch as they still had to go to town in the afternoon.
"I'll let you go today. If you dare to come again next time, I will definitely throw you into the mountains to feed the wolves!" Lin Shuo patted Lin Wen's greasy face and left.
Watching the three people leave, Lin Wen's eyes turned red. Then he smelled a foul odor on their bodies and immediately shouted, "How long do you want to lie down? Get down here right now."
After lunch, the three of them prepared to go to town.
When I passed by Wei Jing's house, I saw that the walls were already finished and it was time to put up the beams.
"Brother Wei Jing, look, your house will be completed soon." Lin Qian said with a smile.
There are three main rooms, a kitchen and a small room on the east side. Although it is small, it is enough for mother and son to live in.
Upon hearing this, Wei Jing also took a look and nodded.
After arriving at the county town, Lin Qian bought ten big meat buns as usual and went to see the old beggar first.
At this time, the old beggar was not lying on the ground drinking, but was hugging his chest and looking down at the papers in front of him.
"I'm here again. These are the last few chapters. Give them to you." Lin Qian shouted, then handed the buns and the following chapters to the old beggar.
The old beggar looked up and asked Lin Qian, "I didn't say I would accept you as my disciple, so why did you still give me the entire "Examination of the Eight Extraordinary Meridians"?
Lin Qian tilted her head and said, "But aren't medical books meant for people to read and learn from? That's how we can cure more people.
If we remain complacent, will this medical skill be able to be passed down through the years?"
An extremely confused expression suddenly appeared on the old beggar's face.
"If I give all my medical books to others to read at will, then in the end, won't I have a lot more competitors?"
After listening to the old beggar's words, Lin Qian suddenly had an idea in her mind. The old beggar might be from the family that inherited the medical skills.
Therefore, he was taught since childhood that the family secrets should not be passed on to others.
Lin Qian sat cross-legged, facing the old beggar, and said, "Senior, I have always respected you because of your great medical skills, but I want to ask you a question now. Why did you become a doctor?"
"To cure illnesses and save lives." The old beggar answered without hesitation.
Lin Qian nodded, and then asked: "Since you study medicine to cure diseases and heal people, why are you afraid of having competitors?
If there are more doctors in the world, there will be fewer patients, right? "
The old beggar lowered his head again and said, "But, but that's not what they said, and that's not what he taught me."
"Why do you care what others say? What others say is their business. The most important thing is what you think in your heart."
"What am I thinking?" the old beggar muttered to himself, seeming a little crazy for a moment.
Lin Qian looked back at Lin Shuo and Wei Jing, then stood up, put the buns away, and the three of them left quietly.
The three of them went to Renhe Hall again. Before they reached the door, they saw from a distance that there were people everywhere outside Renhe Hall.
"What's going on? Why are there so many people?" Lin Qian asked.
"Let's go take a look." Lin Shuo said, then disappeared into the crowd. Lin Qian quickly followed.
Wei Jing watched Lin Qian and Lin Shuo squeeze around people's legs and move to the front, and suddenly felt a little hesitant.
But in the end, I still followed them in.
At the entrance of Renhe Hall, a man was lying there, and a woman who was his wife was lying on him and crying.
"Doctor! Please save him, nothing can happen to him!" The woman cried with tears and snot running down her face, and her head was swollen.
The shopkeeper sighed and said, "Big sister, please stop knocking. It's not that I don't want to save him, but he really can't make it."
Lin Qian looked at the man's face and saw that he was flushed, sweating, and breathing more than he was breathing in.
When the woman heard this, she kowtowed even harder. She shouted with all her might, "He really can't die. If he dies, what will happen to the old man and all those children? Please save him."
At this time, Lin Qian was pushed by someone. When she turned around, she saw that it was the old beggar.
When Lin Qian saw him, her eyes lit up: "You're here? Go check on him, is there any hope?"
The two of them were very close to the entrance of Renhe Hall and were talking loudly. As soon as Lin Qian finished speaking, the woman immediately looked over.
The woman kowtowed twice more and said, "If you can save him, please help. I beg you."
The shopkeeper saw Lin Qian and asked, "Who is he?"
Lin Qian said, "Shopkeeper uncle, he is half my master, why not let him try? He is very powerful."
After saying that, Lin Qian looked at the old beggar.
The old beggar nodded and walked towards the man lying on the ground.
It was only then that Lin Qian discovered that the old beggar was limping and he was actually a cripple.
The old beggar only glanced at the man twice, touched his neck, and then raised his head and said, "It can be cured. Do you have any silver needles?"
"Yes, yes, I'll get it right away." said the shopkeeper, and immediately ran to the counter and brought over the silver needle bag.
The old beggar shouted, "Come, two people, help me turn it over."
Two people immediately came out from the crowd of onlookers to help.
The old beggar opened the needle bag, took out a few silver needles, and inserted them into the man's waist and calves on both sides.
