Chapter 481: Exorcism
The first to come out was a woman with a three- or four-year-old doll in her arms.
The woman's hair was disheveled, her eyes were glazed, not so much walking, but moving little by little, and she suddenly fell to the ground with a stumble, and the doll in her arms did not say a word.
When the officials saw this, they wanted to reach out and help her, fearing that the woman had contracted the epidemic, so they silently withdrew their hands.
The people who came out from behind looked numb and watched silently.
Cheng Wei knew that it was particularly important to cure the first person, not only these people who urgently needed treatment, but also these officials who followed her to take a reassuring pill.
She walked up to the woman and stretched out her hand: "Sister-in-law, I'll help you up." ”
The woman looked up and looked at the girl standing in front of her.
The girl combed her hair in a bun and wore a Taoist robe, standing in front of her like this, as if a god had come into the world, without a trace of fireworks.
"You, are you the Nine Heavens Xuannu?" The woman's eyes were obsessed, and she suddenly lay on the ground and began to kowtow, "Xuannu Niangniang, please save my son, save my son!" ”
Cheng Wei leaned down and helped the woman up: "Sister-in-law, I am not a Xuannu, I am a Taoist priest of Xuanqingguan, Xuanwei, and I came to ward off the epidemic for you this time." You show me the child. ”
Cheng Wei didn't wear a hat to hide his appearance, in this devastated place, the shock brought by such an image to these desperate people waiting for death was beyond imagination.
Without hesitation, the woman immediately handed the child over.
The three- or four-year-old doll was so light that it didn't even move its eyelids when it arrived in Cheng Wei's arms.
The little official holding the gong shouted: "Dao Chief, let go, this child is already in the late stage of the epidemic!" ”
As soon as these words came out, those officials immediately took a few steps back.
"It's not late, it's not late, my son can still call his mother yesterday!" Hearing the words of the little official, the woman cried out as if she had been robbed of her last hope.
The little official retreated again and again, pointed at the woman and shouted, "She, she is also infected with the epidemic!" ”
"Alright, you all be quiet!" Cheng Wei walked to the several half-human-tall buckets lined up with the little doll, and instructed the two Taoist children who followed closely behind, "Draw half a basin of water and wash this doll from head to toe." ”
"Yes, Uncle Shi."
The two Taoist boys immediately took action, one scooped water from the wooden bucket, and the other quickly stripped the little doll naked and put it in the wooden basin.
The sleek little doll was washed from head to toe in front of the crowd, wrapped in a thin cloth prepared in advance, and held by a Taoist boy.
In front of everyone's eyes, the little doll who had been silent suddenly hiccuped.
The woman's eyes were ecstatic, and she rushed over and cried out, "My son is awake, my son is awake!" ”
Cheng Wei stopped the woman: "Sister-in-law, you have been infected with the epidemic, if you come into contact with the child, the child will be re-infected." ”
"Me, what should I do?" The woman looked at her hands blankly, then raised her eyes to look at the girl with a calm face, suddenly knelt down, and kowtowed vigorously, "Xuannu Niangniang, please save me, I want to be with my son......"
Cheng Wei turned his head and gestured to the Taoist boy beside him.
The boy turned around and took a small half bowl of water from the large wooden bucket with a wooden spoon and handed it to the woman.
The woman took it and looked at Cheng Wei hesitantly.
Cheng smiled and said: "Sister-in-law drinks this glass of water, and the epidemic in the body will be removed, and then you and the child can leave Dongcheng District and temporarily settle in Xicheng District." ”
The woman drank it without hesitation, and asked Cheng Wei worriedly: "Xuannu Niangniang, can I really be with my son?" ”
"Yes."
Dao Tong handed the little doll to the woman.
The woman hurriedly took it and shouted, "Dog, dog, can you hear your mother calling you?" ”
The little doll slowly opened her eyes and shouted with difficulty: "Mother-"
The woman cried with joy, turned around with the little doll in her arms, and shouted: "Uncle, second aunt, you all come quickly, these fairy water brought by Xuannu Niangniang is really effective!" The dog baby can call me mother, can call me mother! ”
A servant stepped forward and said, "Sister-in-law, Daoist Xuanwei has explained, the talisman water you drink can only get rid of the epidemic in the body, but it can't avoid reinfection." You take the child and stand there and wait, and someone will take you out in a while. ”
A woman set this precedent, and the people who were watching immediately rushed in.
The official shouted loudly: "All line up, come one by one!" Those who can drink the fairy water are lined up here, and those who only have one breath left are carried over there, and men and women are waiting to wipe their bodies. ”
Seeing that Yiqiē had changed from being busy at the beginning to being orderly later, Cheng Wei breathed a sigh of relief.
"Senior sister, let's go over there and have some tea."
"Hmm."
Cheng Wei walked under the improvised pergola, and before the cup of tea was finished, there was a commotion in the long queue.
The officials shouted loudly, but the commotion grew louder and louder.
Cheng Wei and Beiming Zhenren glanced at each other and walked over together.
"What's going on?"
The Taoist boy with a wooden spoon was almost squeezed away by the commotion crowd and shouted, "Fu Shui has bottomed out!" ”
It turned out that the people saw that the water in the wooden barrel was about to run out, and the people in the back of the queue became anxious.
"Everyone, don't be impatient, these plague-repellent spiritual water is made by the poor Dao junior sister, and she will make it again when these are used up."
The words of the real person of Beiming made the crowd calm instantly, and they all looked at Cheng Wei.
Cheng Wei bowed his head and said: "That's right, you can rest assured." Xuanwei came on the orders of the master to get rid of the plague, and he must go all out. As long as the infected patient still breathes, he will not lose his life! ”
Cheng Wei's words obviously had a soothing effect than the real people of the Northern Underworld, and the team quieted down again.
She instructed Dao Tong to fill the empty wooden barrel with water, and under the watchful eyes of all the people, she began to make talismans.
In the eyes of Beiming Zhenren, Cheng Wei is making talismans, and in the eyes of others, she is dancing a strange dance.
After the dance, everything was quiet, only the little spiritual light around the girl's body seemed to be able to emit an ethereal sound, falling into the clear water at the same time, but also falling on the hearts of everyone.
The people knelt down in unison.
"Xuannu Niangniang has appeared, Xuannu Niangniang has appeared, we are saved!"
For these people, the miracles they saw with their own eyes were even greater than the shock they had just received when they saw that those runes of water could cure diseases.
A few days later.
"Xuanwei Daoist, take a rest, your body will not be able to stand it if you keep making talismans like this."
Under the scorching sun, seeing the girl dancing and making talismans again and again, she has not stopped since the first day she entered Dongcheng District, and everyone persuaded one after another.
"It's okay, with Senior Brother Beiming helping me with the Peiyuan Qi Nourishing Talisman, I can still support it. The epidemic is different from other diseases, the speed of infection is rapid, and a delay of one day will cost many people their lives, so it is better to resettle the people of Dongcheng as much as possible. ”
At this time, a servant came running and panted and said, "Dao Chief, there is a girl who claims to be your maid, and she has to break in, saying that she has something urgent to see you!" ”
Cheng Wei's face changed slightly: "Bring her to see me!" (To be continued.) )
