The patient's family came to the door again, and had to kneel on the ground and beg bitterly, but the patient did not want to send the national doctor to the official, and the two sides were arguing, when they suddenly saw a Taoist priest walk in and said: "Don't panic and quarrel, maybe I have a way to cure this patient." The Taoist priest who walked in was none other than Mu Xian.

Mu Xian walked up to the patient, looked at the place where the needle was pricked, and reproached the traditional Chinese doctor: "You see the matter of acupuncture too easily! There is only a fraction of a difference between the dead acupoint and the living acupoint, and the human blood is connected to each other like a river, so you should carefully and accurately identify the vital parts during acupuncture." You are also a good acupuncturist, but you pierced the wrong acupuncture point. ”

Mu Xian asked someone to lift the patient from the stretcher to the bed, and put a needle on the place where the patient's left leg was full of gas: "If this needle goes down, the needle you pricked yesterday will jump out and can jump to the ceiling board." After finishing speaking, the needle had been pierced more than an inch, and the needle from the old acupuncture point suddenly jumped to the top of the ceiling, and the place where the air came out naturally closed, and the patient recovered his health at that time.

After the officials came to their senses, they frequently thanked the national doctors and Taoist priests. He also instructed his family to give Mu Xian gold and silver silk, but Mu Xian did not accept it, and said: "I treat the adult, not to covet the gold, silver and jewelry given by the adult, but to cherish the life of the adult, and hope that the adult can benefit the people in the future." ”

After Mu Xian said this to the officials, he said to everyone: "The doctor is not omnipotent, and it is inevitable that there will be mistakes in the process of treating the sick.

After Mu Xian said this, he planned to leave this place with Mu Sheng, but was stopped by the national doctor: "Master Dao, please go slowly." ”

"What else?" Mu Xian frowned slightly.

The traditional Chinese doctor gave a deep salute and said: "Thank you for saving me." ”

Mu Xian waved his hand and said, "Don't say thank you again, don't leave it at that." "Turned around and was about to leave.

The national doctor hurriedly said: "Master Dao, there is still something to ask for in the future." ”

Mu Xian stopped and asked, "What's the matter?"

"I have a strange patient who doesn't eat water and rice after getting sick, and only drinks half a liter of blood every day to stay alive. The family was worried and scared, so they paid a high price to recruit doctors, and many famous doctors from the eastern and western capitals to the surrounding countries were also invited, but although he gave the doctors generous treatment. The doctors all retired because the diagnosis and treatment were ineffective. At the end of the year, I also went to his house to see it, but I didn't see the root cause of the disease. The Chinese doctor said.

When the official heard this, he also interjected: "Oh, you are talking about the Jia Tan family, I know this family, he is a salt merchant designated by the imperial court, and the family has a lot of wealth. ”

The Chinese doctor nodded and said, "My medical skills have been passed down from family to three generations, and whenever I see a doctor, I must investigate the root cause of the disease." This time, I have been observing the old man's illness for a long time, but I can't understand anything;

When Mu Xian heard that this patient needed to drink blood to live, he couldn't help muttering in his heart, 'Could it be that the demon possessed the body?' Thinking in his heart, he went to Mu Sheng's place to see it, and just saw Mu Sheng giving him a look, so he said, "This person is there, I can go and see it." ”

Seeing that Mu Xian agreed to see the patient, the Chinese doctor said happily: "This is easy to say, I will arrange for the carriage and horse to go over immediately." After a while, the carriage and horses were ready, and Mu Sheng and Mu Xian boarded the carriage and rushed to Jia Tan's house. When Mu Sheng heard that this person was feeding on blood, he also had the idea of finding out, fearing that it was the flying demon outside the sky who had demonized the world.

After less than half an hour, the vehicle stopped, stopped in front of a large family, and after the national doctor talked to the gatekeeper, he led the two to the house.

Jia Tan's house was very large and magnificently furnished, but several people did not have the heart to appreciate it, and walked all the way to the place where his father lived, and when they arrived at the house where the old man lived, they could smell a strong smell of blood. However, smelling the smell of blood, Mu Sheng's slightly frowning brows calmed down.

Mu Sheng had already detected with his divine sense and spiritual eye that the smell of blood did not come from human blood, but from the blood of chickens, ducks and other poultry, and there was no demonic spirit.

Under the leadership of the housekeeper of Jiafu, several mermaids rushed in, only to see an old man lying on the mattress, his expression was languid, his face was haggard, and the whole person was so thin that only a skeleton remained.

The Chinese doctor said: "Jia Lao has been getting better recently. ”

The old man shook his head and sighed, "Where is it good, I know that this disease is a dead disease, and now I am very irritable, and I am tired of listening to people, and I want to have people take me to a place outside the city where there are mountains and rivers, and place me there, and go to see me once every three days." If you die, you can be buried in that place, but I just don't listen there, so I don't want to live here to find me a doctor. ”

The Chinese doctor smiled: "Lord Jia Tan is right, don't you see that I have found someone for you to see, his medical skills are much better than mine." Saying that, he introduced Mu Xian.

The old man was skeptical of what the Chinese doctor said, and said: "I have been seen by so many doctors, and no one can find out the root cause of the disease, I am afraid that it will ......." ”

Mu Xian looked at the old man and said: "There are indeed unrecognizable human diseases, but I happen to recognize your disease, you are suffering from lice, there is no medicine in the world to cure it, you must use a thousand-year-old wooden comb to burn it into ashes, and there is no cure." ”

The Chinese doctor listened to it and said: "The thousand-year-old wooden comb is not difficult to find, and it is not difficult to use the thousand-year-old wood to make a wooden comb for a big family like the Jia Tan family, so you should quickly do what the Taoist said." ”

When the housekeeper heard this, he planned to arrange this matter, but he heard Mu Xian say: "The thousand-year-old wooden comb is not a thousand-year-old comb, but a comb that has been kept until the present a thousand years ago, and there is a big difference between the two." Combs made of thousand-year-old wood are quite easy to make, but antique wooden combs from thousands of years ago are not easy to find. ”

The Chinese doctor asked, "What is the difference between the two?"

Mu Xian said: "The comb made of thousand-year-old wood is still a new comb, but it is taken from the body of a thousand-year-old tree, and the vitality has not been broken for a long time, while the comb of a thousand years ago has been broken, with traces of time, one yin and one yang, and the medicinal effects and medicinal properties of the two are completely different." ”
