Chapter Seventy-Seven: Lu Langzhong knelt down and begged for apprenticeship
He didn't know anything about the internal force in his body, and he could only clearly perceive it when he gave acupuncture to the old lady of the Zhao family.
At that time, every trace of his energy was attached to the golden needles and penetrated into the patient's body, and this internal force seemed to carry his consciousness, which could allow him to see the patient's viscera and nerve veins clearly, and even calculate the patient's vitality.
But once you let go of the golden needle, that sensibility dissipates like air. By the way, it seems that only when you gather your own strength, the internal force will emerge!
Just now, the reason why the chair shattered must be due to the internal force, the internal force generated by the cohesion.
However, the internal force is not under his control, and it comes and goes without a trace.
Alas, let's think about it slowly, and it will be difficult to figure it out for a while.
The next day, there was a news from the village, which made me feel quite guilty, that Lu Langzhong had closed his door, and people had never been closed.
A gentleman does not stand in the way of people's wealth, this is what his father has repeatedly warned him, unless you are a life and death enemy, you can't do this, people will fight with you.
A lose-lose situation is a strategy at all times. My father emphasized.
Besides, he thought that the only doctor in the town had been lost by him, and now it seemed that there was no big problem, and once he left in the future, it would be equivalent to leaving a hidden danger.
Besides, I was in a hurry, but I didn't know how to deal with it.
"Little brother, don't think about it, Lu Langzhong is ashamed for a while, and after you leave, he will still open. Xiao Wanli comforted.
"That's it, if you die Butcher Zhang, do you only eat hairy pigs?" Xiao Lei also followed.
"Brother, it seems that you won't be able to leave for a while, if you leave, the people in the town are sick, who will treat them, then you have to wait for death. Xiao Nier said something completely different.
Besides, knowing that she was changing the law and wanted to keep herself, she had to smile bitterly.
"Either you can teach me to be a langzhong, and I will take care of you for a few years in the future. Xiao Nier put forward another idea, in a matter-of-fact tone, without any embarrassment.
Besides, I really thought that if I could teach Xiao Nier medical skills and make her independent, she might be able to get rid of this "burden". But medical skills can't be done quickly, and you can't find a Nine Yin White Bone Claw from medical skills, and Xiao Nier is not Mei Chaofeng.
Not to mention the subtlety of pulse, pharmacology alone has to be studied for several years before you can memorize the medicinal materials. There are countless combinations of medicinal materials, and the combination of each prescription is compatible with each other.
He didn't have the time, and Xiao Nier didn't have the patience.
"Brother, you can stay for a few years, and then I can go when I learn how to go. Xiao Nier was very proud of her idea, and her whole face lit up.
Besides, I am accustomed to Xiao Nier's suggestion, and I am not surprised. He had something else on his mind.
Of course, the five hundred taels of silver obtained from the Zhao family will not be taken away. Besides, he first wanted to leave it to the Xiao family as Xiao Wanli's pension money, but he felt that it was easy to cause misunderstanding, could it be that five hundred taels of silver became Xiao Nier's selling money? No, this is an insult to his benefactor.
Come to think of it, it's better to have a foolproof plan.
Five hundred taels of silver can do a lot of things, such as buying a large number of medicinal herbs and curing many medicines, but without a doctor's presiding, these medicines will be abused, not only will they not cure the disease, but they may also be counterproductive.
Ask a teacher to teach the children in the town to read and write, and you don't need to teach any people to come to the school, just teach a showman, so that you can leave a seed in the town and continue to teach other children to read. Passing on the torch, maybe decades later, it is really possible to come out of a lifting person!
He was the most enthusiastic about education, but he was worried that if there were too many scholars, the mountain people in the town would be divided into hierarchies, and the simple folk customs would be destroyed.
As the "Zhuangzi" said, in ancient times, the avenue was originally dull, there was nothing but nothing but good and no evil, but the sages chiseled chaos, and too much right and wrong, good and evil. Therefore, Zhuangzi said: The sages do not die, and the thieves do not stop.
However, you can't waste food because of choking, running a school is the right way!
Besides, I calculated it: I invited a tutor for fifty taels of silver per year, the conditions were enough, plus twenty years of silver per year as the basic living expenses of the tutor, thirty taels of silver for those students to purchase textbooks, pens, ink and paper, and each person paid for some lamp oil, as for the desks and chairs, it was simple, there was no shortage of wood in the mountains, and it was just a matter of finding someone to make it.
Hehe, besides, laughed.
In the evening, he told the three members of the Xiao family his idea at the dinner table, and Xiao Wanli immediately agreed, but he did not agree with him to use his own money to run the school, saying that it could be shared by each family.
"I want to fulfill a wish, of course I have to pay for the silver, first take out these expenses for five years, and then I will ask someone to send the silver, one hundred taels a year. ”
Although the Ming Dynasty did not have a post office, no bank, and no online banking system, there was still a very complete system for sending money. There are money banks and pawnshops in the administrative areas above the county seat, and these are the systems for the exchange of money and money.
Although there is no pawnshop in the town, there are merchants, and the merchants have no way out, no profit, and they naturally become the intermediary between the town and the county town pawnshop.
The crude medicine shop in the town is quite large, not only to help exchange money, but also to piggyback goods and even people, is a passenger and cargo dual-use system, equivalent to today's logistics company plus passenger transport company.
couldn't resist the "wish" of the town, and the matter of running a school for the children in the town was basically decided.
Xiao Wanli had to find a candidate for a teacher outside the town, and Xiao Wanli had a good relationship with the shopkeeper of the crude medicine shop in the town, so he immediately went to ask the shopkeeper to look for it in the county.
This matter is considered to have a fixed number, and the mountain people have just woken up from a dream, and they are happy.
On the morning of the fourth day, an accident occurred.
In the morning, and was about to check the pulse of the first patient, Lu Langzhong, who was originally hiding at home and did not show up, crashed in, regardless of thirty-seven twenty-one, knelt down with a bang, and stared at the situation with his eyes.
Lu Langzhong's behavior was a little scary, which stunned the patients who came to consult, and they wondered if Lu Langzhong had fallen into evil and had a nervous disorder.
"Sir, you must be an immortal descending to earth and a bodhisattva manifesting, and you must accept your disciple as a disciple, otherwise your disciple will kneel and die here. Lu Langzhong knelt straight and said, and then knocked his head with a bang.
Only then did everyone understand and snickered.
"Don't, sir, get up quickly, you can't do it. And he hurried over and helped him up.
Xiao Wanli's father and son hurriedly came over to help, but they still didn't dare to believe the facts in front of them, this Lu Langzhong wouldn't have taken the wrong medicine.
How did they know that Lu Langzhong did not take the wrong medicine, but was in a daze at home for a few days, and then suddenly realized: This seemingly young miracle doctor must be a god descending to earth and a bodhisattva manifesting into the world, otherwise the medical skills would never be so wonderful. I met God in the blue sky and daytime, and I met the Bodhisattva, this opportunity must not be missed, and I didn't wash my teeth or brush my face early in the morning, and hurriedly came over to meet the God.
As for face, worshipping the gods and Bodhisattvas as teachers is not ashamed, but it is the opportunity to burn high incense for eight lifetimes, which is a blessing from God.
"Master, if you don't accept me as an apprentice, I will really kneel here!"
Lu Langzhong trotted all the way from home, and he kept thinking in his heart, if the immortal Bodhisattva didn't accept himself, how should he swear by sincerity.
He heard that Mr. Storyteller had told the story of Jiang Ziya's apprenticeship. It is said that Jiang Ziya was originally a bear, after meeting the immortals, he begged to worship the door, the gods thought he was a beast, and resolutely did not accept it, Jiang Ziya could not kneel, three hundred years later, the fairy passed by again, but saw the remains of a bear, pinched his fingers, calculated that it was the bear three hundred years ago, and his heart was moved, so he used magic to resurrect Jiang Ziya and put it under the door.
Of course, this is folklore.
As for the story of the two ancestors of Zen Buddhism who broke their arms to seek a teacher, not to mention, Lu Langzhong decided to learn from these sages and resolutely carry out sincerity to the end.
Besides, he couldn't pull him, so he had to kneel with him and explain to him that he couldn't accept disciples.
Seeing that he didn't agree, Lu Langzhong was not surprised, if the immortal Bodhisattva's apprentice was accepted in a few words, it would be a strange thing. Without saying a word, he got up, took a few steps back, knelt down again, and then slammed his head until his forehead was bleeding.
Besides, there is no way, he can afford to kneel and accompany him, and he can't bear it when he kowtows.
Xiao Wanli's father and son pulled Lu Langzhong tightly one by one, and they were shocked in their hearts, afraid that he would make more outrageous moves. Not to mention that Lu Langzhong has been arrogant all his life, and he has never refused to give half a point, even if he is an ordinary person, it is rare to see such a hard teacher.
Only people who take the wrong medicine will do so.
"Hurry up and treat him, it's scary. Xiao Nier's face turned white with fright.
Not to mention that Xiao Nier was afraid, the kind of madness that erupted from Lu Langzhong's eyes scared the patients in the room so much that they didn't dare to speak.
"Sir, please get up and speak, everything is negotiable, except for apprenticeship......" and persuaded with good words.
"If you don't accept disciples, disciples will really have to kneel and die here!" Lu Langzhong repeated with an awe-inspiring face.
Besides, he glanced back at Xiao Nier, showing a crying and laughing expression. What's wrong with this person, he doesn't play like this, he threatens death at every turn, and is there any royal law?
Turning his mind but smiling bitterly, Wang Fa couldn't care about it. This is really a question of whether a person's heart is ruthless enough.
Moreover, I immediately thought of the story of Haofu Shi Chong.
The Western Jin Dynasty celebrity Wang Dao, Wang Dun brothers to the rich Shi Chong's house to drink, Shi Chong has a problem, like to drink and abuse guests, must see the guests drunk and drunk to be happy, each guest behind the beautiful woman to serve, if the guest refuses to drink, the beauty behind him cut off the head, replace one, if not drink, continue to cut.
The neurotic Shi Chong used this trick to subdue almost all the guests, and all the guests who went to Shi's house to drink almost did not go out standing up.
said that it was almost, because he met Wang Dun, Wang Dun knew Shi Chong's problem, and resolutely refused to drink, but the beauties standing behind him were cut down several times, so angry that his brother Wang Dao scolded him and wanted to drink for him.
Wang Dun said without changing his face: "He cut off his family's head, what are you anxious about?"
Shi Chong was convinced, knowing that he had met the most ruthless person in the world, and he would no longer continue to cut off the heads of his family.
It's a test of one's compassion and how you deal with the threat of death when someone else is threatened with death.
Besides, I was familiar with this allusion, but I didn't expect to face this kind of test.
