Chapter 474: Folk Traveling Doctors

After leaving the seed store, Zhang Taiping first bought all the things listed by Cai Yazhi on the street, and then walked towards a corner of the big market - the pet area, which is actually called the livestock area in the countryside. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info//。 qΞ’5、There will be some interesting animals from time to time.,Although you won't pay for it.,But it's good to look at a novelty in the past.。

Naturally, the smell of the place where the animals gather is smoky, and they smell it before they have gone far. Zhang Taiping is not a precious daughter, and he is not intolerable to this smell.

The first thing you hear when you walk in is the sound of pigs, and the most popular animals sold here are piglets, followed by big dogs and goats.

There are very few big pigs to sell here, and the piglets that are just two months old are white and pink, but they are not annoying.

But now that these guys are being watched in their hands, struggling with their mouths and screaming at the same time, it is no wonder that there is a phrase "worse than killing a pig".

Zhang Taiping has no interest in raising pigs, but there is a pig farm in the village, but this matter is not something he can decide alone, so he does not stay in front of these piglets.

Beyond the screeching of pigs, followed by the dull or immature barking of dogs.

Dogs are different from pigs, and it is easy for dogs and people to have feelings for each other, and even if they don't want to raise most people, they can't kill them, and at most they sell them. Therefore, the dog market is not limited to small dogs, and there are not a few large dogs.

Zhang Taiping walked slowly in the dog market, there are enough dogs in the house, although he doesn't plan to buy any more, but he can always have a heart, maybe he will meet some good dogs.

However, from the beginning to the end, he didn't meet any dogs that made him excited, but those newborn puppies looked cute with watery eyes.

Next is the sheep market and the bull market, Zhang Taiping did not stop, and walked directly to the innermost corner.

This is a small field, and there is no fixed number of animals in it, and there may be any strange animals.

On the very edge, I met a rabbit seller, a domestic white rabbit in a cage, eating vegetable leaves, and looking very cute with his ears twitching. Fan Ming also raised a white rabbit in the family, and named it "Xiaoyu", but then I don't know where it went. Zhang Taiping couldn't help but look at these rabbits twice.

The stall owner thought he was interested, and greeted him warmly: "Look, this rabbit can be raised to kill meat to eat, and it can also be used by children to play." ”

Zhang Taiping shrugged his shoulders to show no interest.

Further inside, there are guinea pigs and all kinds of birds. Zhang Taiping walked by and had no interest in buying it.

It wasn't until I walked to a stall surrounded by a group of people that I stopped, and when I looked inside, it turned out that a Jianghu Langzhong was setting up a stall here to treat rheumatism with cupping.

Cupping is indeed a medical skill, which is recorded in the "Compendium of Materia Medica", but most of it is circulated among the people, and it has only been systematically used in hospital treatment in recent years.

Authentic cupping can dredge the meridians, adjust qi and blood, balance yin and yang, and indeed have some therapeutic effects on rheumatism.

Folk Duoqi people, not all people who set up street stalls to sell medicine to cure diseases are charlatans, and Zhang Taiping does not dare to say whether this person's cupping can really cure diseases or is just used to deceive people. So he stood outside the crowd and watched.

The practitioner was a Taoist priest who looked to be about fifty years old, dressed in a simple Taoist robe, and had antique long hair on his head, and wore a wooden hairpin into a bun. Let's not talk about whether the medical skills are real or not, this dress alone is convincing.

There was a small bench with a small stall in front of it, on which were placed some plasters and some gold sore medicines, all of which were made by themselves. There is also a flag behind him, on which there are only two words "help the wounded", but not "save the dead".

A middle-aged woman was sitting in front of her trouser legs, and the Taoist priest was holding a ceramic jar and then pressing it up, with many slapping techniques.

After a while, the Taoist priest pulled the jar off the middle-aged woman's lap and made a banging air blasting sound, which was quite magical.

"That's it?" The woman asked.

"Alright." The Taoist priest bowed his head.

The woman put down her trouser leg and stood up and took two steps, and then exclaimed in surprise, "Sure enough, it's a lot lighter, it's a lot lighter!" "I looked quite excited.

"You don't need to be so excited, right?" A man next to him muttered.

Unexpectedly, this woman's ears are quite sensitive, and he listened to it, and explained: "I have been suffering from leg pain for seven or eight years, and I have spent a lot of money on medical treatment and medicine everywhere, but it has not improved, and now it has finally improved." ”

"Is it really that amazing?" The man was still a little unconvinced.

"It's true. This long medical skill is truly amazing. The woman said to the crowd next to her.

"She's telling the truth." Someone who knew the woman next to him said.

Zhang Taiping understood when he heard this, this woman had not been cured for a long time, and she couldn't be tortured before she went to the traveling doctor on the street to try her luck, but she didn't expect it to reduce her pain, no wonder she was surprised.

Although he was encouraged and praised by the middle-aged woman, the old Taoist priest did not have a smug expression on his face.

After the middle-aged woman's excited emotions cooled down, she said slowly: "This is just a palliative, not a cure." ”

Probably knowing that the disease that had tormented her for seven or eight years was not so easy to treat, the middle-aged woman did not feel disappointed, but asked hopefully, "I don't know how to cure it?" ”

The old Taoist priest said: "Cupping can only temporarily remove the surface of the disease, but it cannot treat the root of the disease, if you want to cure it, you need to do it both inside and outside." At the same time, it is necessary to use traditional Chinese medicine to treat the root cause. ”

"Is that the medicine?" The middle-aged woman asked, pointing to the medicine on the stall.

The old Taoist priest shook his head and said, "No, I don't have Chinese medicine here to treat other diseases, these are just traumatic medicines that promote blood circulation and remove blood stasis or stop bleeding, and they can't treat your disease." ”

"So what to do?" The middle-aged woman was a little anxious, and finally met someone who could cure her illness, and she really didn't want to lose this opportunity.

The old Taoist priest thought for a while and said, "I definitely can't help if I don't have any medicinal materials here, but I can prescribe a prescription for you, just go to the pharmacy and grab the medicine yourself." After speaking, he took out a piece of hemp paper from the box on his body, took out a pen, and wrote a prescription with a rustle.

Zhang Taiping is a head higher than others, standing at the back but can clearly see what the old Taoist priest wrote, not to mention whether the pharmacy is useful or not, just this vigorous and powerful book is amazing.

The middle-aged woman took the prescription, looked at it and carefully put it away, and then asked, "I don't know where the Taoist chief lives, if there is a curative effect at that time, I can go over and thank you." ”

The old Taoist priest shook his head and said, "The four seas are home, and there is no fixed place to live. ”

The middle-aged woman was a little disappointed, but she didn't force anything, maybe in her eyes, the old Taoist priest had really become a master of the world at this time. Asked, "I don't know how much it is in total?" ”

"Cupping is twenty at a time, and the prescription is fifty, which is a total of seventy yuan."

Cupping relieves the pain once and is indeed worth twenty. As for the prescription, if it can really cure the disease, let alone fifty yuan, even three thousand yuan is worth it. The middle-aged woman did not hesitate to take out a hundred yuan, but then said: "I believe in the medical skills of the Taoist, the medicine here must also have miraculous effects, I don't know how to sell it?" ”

The old Taoist priest said: "The plaster is twenty each, and the bottle of hemostatic medicine in the bottle is also twenty." ”

The middle-aged woman said, "Don't look for it, I'll just get another plaster." ”

The old Taoist priest nodded, but gave the middle-aged woman a plaster and a bottle of hemostatic medicine.

The middle-aged woman stepped back when she got to something, but she didn't leave, still standing by and watching.

At this time, a man in his thirties next to him said, "Is the Taoist chief's recipe too cheap?" ”

"What do you mean by that?" The old Taoist priest asked.

"If a prescription could cure a disease, it would be worth more than fifty dollars. Isn't the Taoist chief afraid of the prescription leaking out? The man asked, wondering.

The old Taoist priest stroked his beard with his hand and said: "In fact, some diseases look very similar, but they are different, you must know that the difference is a thousand miles, especially in terms of seeing a doctor and people, not one prescription can cure all diseases." Even if it is the same disease, it is possible that this person can be treated with this prescription, and some people cannot be treated with this prescription. ”

"Why is that?" The middle-aged man was puzzled.

The old Taoist priest did not have an impatient expression, and carefully explained: "The treatment of diseases is different from person to person, and the medicine is also different from person to person. ”

The middle-aged man seemed to understand and nodded, but the question returned to the original topic: "If it can really cure the disease, why does the Taoist only charge fifty yuan?" ”

The old Taoist priest was quite open-minded: "In the eyes of the old Tao, this recipe is only worth this price, and although the old Taoist has a prescription, he has nothing to lose." ”

The middle-aged man opened his mouth in surprise, didn't say anything more, and retreated to the side, but he didn't leave.

Next, a few more people asked the old Taoist priest to use cupping on the spot, and all of his conditions were alleviated.

Zhang Taiping had been watching quietly from the side and saw some doorways. The old Taoist priest does not use only one technique for all diseases, but will first check the pulse of the disease, and then administer it, the technique seems to have no change, but the effect of subtle changes may be completely different.

Until this time, Zhang Taiping believed that this was indeed a strange person among the people.

There are more and more people gathered outside, and some people rush to hear the news, and most of them are not coming to see the doctor, but to see the excitement.

"Ahem." A sickly middle-aged man walked in from the crowd, and the crowd around him automatically made way for a passage, all startled by his heart-rending cough.

"Dao Chief, cough cough to see if my disease can be treated?"

The old Taoist first asked him to sit down, then checked his pulse, shook his head and said after carefully looking at it: "The old Taoist is incompetent, and there is no way to treat it." ”

The middle-aged man may not have had any hope of being cured, and said in a reckless manner: "Can you cough cough and cough out a fire cup to relieve the pain?" ”

The old Taoist priest still shook his head and said: "The disease has been accumulated in the lungs for many years, and it is really on the verge of an outbreak.

Although the old Taoist priest's words were not finished, the middle-aged man still heard the meaning, if he did not treat it, he might still be able to survive for a while, and if he was treated, the likely result would be a violent death on the spot.

His face was a little gloomy and he asked, "Is there no way?" ”

The old Taoist priest shook his head and did not speak.

The middle-aged man stood up and left with a violent cough, and the heart-rending cough was really frightening.

"Yikes!" A crowd of people around them let out exclamations.

It turned out that it was the coughing man's white silk that coughed up blood.

The old Taoist priest could only shake his head and sigh in the back.

Next, a few more people came forward to pull out the fire cup, and when no one stepped forward again, the old Taoist priest was ready to close the stall.

At that moment, three young men burst in from the crowd, their hair dyed with a strange color, which was not a good thing at first glance.

Sure enough, before he could speak, he kicked at the stall with the medicine on the ground. The innermost shouted: "Old thing, who told you to set up a stall here?" This place! ”

But before he finished speaking, he fell to the ground all at once.

But it was the old Taoist priest who stretched out his hand and patted him lightly on his knee when he kicked the stall, and he immediately fell to the ground as if he had been electrocuted.

"What's wrong with my leg?" The young man on the ground tried to get up, but found that his whole leg was numb, and he couldn't exert his strength at all, so he cried out with some fear.

The other two people were clever, and when they saw that their companion had fallen inexplicably and couldn't get up for a long time, they immediately retreated.

Zhang Taiping can naturally see the doorway, this old Taoist is really a strange person, although the force of the shot just now is not large, but it just hit the young man's numbness. Not only can I know kung fu, but I must also know the human body very well.

The people around began to condemn the three young people, you and I said a word, which immediately made the three of them a little unbearable, you must know that there are nearly 100 people around here, and the two of them helped up the young man who was wilted on the ground and fled out of the crowd.

At this moment, most of the people around saw that this long way was extraordinary, and they came forward one after another, even if they didn't come to cupping, they would buy a few plasters or hemostatic medicines. Like a gust of wind blowing, the medicine on the old Taoist priest's stall was sold out.

When no one came forward anymore, the old Taoist priest stood up and arched his hand to the surroundings and said, "Thank you for your support, that's all for today, and the old Taoist should go." ”

"Yes, Dao Chief, let's leave quickly. Those three people just now are not good embryos, and I am afraid that they will come to seek trouble in a while. ”

"yes."

There were people next to him who knew the three young men just now, and they all said.

Zhang Taiping seemed to be that with the skills of this Taoist master, he was naturally not afraid of the three young people, but the Taoist chief didn't say anything, packed up his things and arched his hand towards the people watching around.
