Chapter 439: Healing the Sick and Saving People (II)
The genius was bright, and Sun Tu was woken up by a low Sanskrit chanting. He then turned over and got up and walked out of the house, and saw that many of the villagers had already gotten up and started to have morning lessons with Guru Yusang.
Without making a sound to disturb these people, Sun Tu walked to the residence of one of the patients who had been given cold medicine last night, quietly pushed open the door, and saw that the patient was sleeping deeply, breathing steadily, and seeing that his condition had indeed improved. This made Sun Tu happy, although from his standpoint, this approach was inappropriate, but in the end, it was the people who rescued him, and he always hoped that their condition would get better.
Not only Sun Tu was paying attention to the situation of these patients, but the first thing that the next few Lang Zhong did was to check the condition of those patients, and at this glance, the faces of several people changed a little, and they didn't know whether to be happy or worried. The five or six patients who had taken the medicine seemed to have improved a lot, and even the coughing sound that they used to hear was much less, and although they still looked lifeless, they were much better than before.
"By the way, the terminally ill man...... "Then the men thought of the incurable patient to them, and they went to the farthest end of the room. Their actions also attracted the attention of other villagers, and many people who did not attend the morning class also came over, but Sun Tu was not in a hurry at this time, just smiled indifferently and waited there. Anyway, the answer is already doomed, and it's the same if you can't get by.
Those people circled around the door, and after a while, a Lang Zhong also deliberately went in for a while, and when he came out, his face changed several times, and finally after hesitating for a while, he took the lead in walking to Sun Tu, and solemnly saluted: "Doctor Sun is really good at medicine, I am really convinced!" ”
Then, several other Lang Zhong also came over to apologize with a guilty face: "Please also ask Dr. Sun to bear with me for not doing anything before, because we are short-sighted and self-righteous, so we will turn a blind eye to your medical skills......"
"You don't have to, I said before that I don't know much medicine, it's just because my ancestors had a prescription for such diseases that can treat the patients here. Actually, the Guru can testify to this. Sun Tu said, glancing at the monk who had finished his morning class and got up and walked here, and now the monk's face was still full of happy smiles, obviously he already knew the result.
Before the master could say anything, the villagers on the side couldn't hold it anymore, and they all knelt down towards Sun Tu with a hula sound, kowtowing and pleading: "Please also ask Dr. Sun to save our relatives...... This killed Sun Tu by surprise, and hurriedly stepped forward to pick up an old man with white hair, and then said sincerely: "Rest assured, since I have promised the master to come here for treatment, as long as I can do it, I will cure everyone." ”
"Thank you Dr. Sun for saving your life...... everyone was very excited when they heard this, and they kowtowed again and again. Sun Tu hurriedly said that he didn't dare, and then said: "You really want to thank Master Xie Jiesang, if it weren't for his strong invitation, I wouldn't have come here to give it a try." So in the end, it's still the Dharma that can save you from waiting for this catastrophe! ”
As soon as his words came out, Zhong Langzhong's respect for Sun Tu increased a little more than surprise, and even the Mulberry wax man, who had always been calm and calm, also showed a look of surprise at this time, and he couldn't figure out Sun Tu's thoughts. This was supposed to be the best time to invite people to buy people's hearts and get benefits, but he actually put all the credit on himself?
The villagers did not think deeply, as soon as they heard this, they quickly turned back and bowed down to the master again, and many people who had not yet taken refuge had also secretly made a decision in their hearts that as long as their relatives could survive this calamity, then the whole family would believe in Buddha and worship Buddha in the future.
Although he gave up all the credit, Sun Tu's prestige in the village had been established at the moment, so when he went to distribute medicine to those patients, there would be no one to stop him. And not only the villages on this side, but even the villages on the other side of the river were also distributed by them in the past, and there were three tuberculosis patients with similar conditions over there, so Sun Tu let them take isoniazid and slowly recuperate.
After the patients in the two villages had taken the medicine, it was already past noon, and at this time, the city had already sent a fairly sumptuous meal, and Sun Tu, who had an empty stomach, naturally did not shirk it, so he ate with the Yusang wax and the others.
To his surprise, as the imperial master of the Xia Emperor, Yusang couldn't help but drink and meat, they all ate meat in large pieces and drank wine in large bowls, and Sun Tu had to wonder if this was a monk after all.
After eating and drinking, several Lang Zhong were planning to boil out a pot of herbs in case of emergency—after all, there were still many villagers in these two villages who might have been infected and had not yet become ill—but they were stopped by Sun Tu's words. Afterwards, he took out the Banlan Root Powder that had been prepared long ago, and asked them to wash it away and share it with the villagers in the two villages who had not yet fallen ill. In his opinion, those herbs that don't know how effective they are are still more reliable.
If this was a decision he made yesterday, I am afraid that someone would have jumped out to interfere and accuse the Hengjia family a long time ago. But today, the situation is completely different, not only the villagers rushed to drink the medicine, but even the doctors drank the medicine without suspicion. After drinking it, they all smacked their mouths, feeling that this medicinal soup tasted much better than the ones they had made before, and even for many ordinary villagers, this medicinal soup was better than their usual food.
A few of the children in the village even cautiously begged Sun Tu for more decoction to eat, which really made him cry and laugh for a while, and it took a while to send them away.
It wasn't until he did all this that Sun Tu was able to rest for a while, and then Yusang came over again, looked at him with a smile and said, "Master Sun, the little monk has been thinking about why you said such things in public, but you always can't understand it correctly, I wonder if you can solve my confusion?" ”
"Oh? Does Guru mean that I give you all the credit? I didn't have the intention of staying in the Xia Kingdom for long, so the gratitude of the people was naturally nothing to me. And what I said is indeed true, and the reason why I am here is because you, Guru, have made it happen. Sun Tu looked back at the other party and said very calmly.
Although the monk in front of him is not good-looking, he has great wisdom, and he has already seen through everything, so Sun Tu naturally does not need to hide it much. But Yusan still shook his head a little unacceptably and said, "It shouldn't be just that, right?" Donor, you have other unspeakable purposes! ”
"The master is really as wise as a torch...... Sun Tu smiled bitterly, he still couldn't hide this little bit of his mind from the other party. However, this is not a conspiracy, so he is not afraid to say it bluntly: "Actually, my intention is already in that remark, I just hope that the master and the Buddhist sect where you are can make more people in the Xia Kingdom believe in refuge, that's all." ”
"Huh?" Yusang looked at Sun Tu carefully and found that the other party was indeed not deceiving him, which made him frown again: "It's just so? Can this do Sun Shi Zhu any good? ”
"It doesn't seem like it will do much good at the moment, but it's hard to say in the future." Sun Tu smiled and said: "What I hope is actually very simple, that is, to make the whole people of Xia Kingdom believe in Buddhism, so that they can be dedicated to goodness, so as to dissipate the belligerent and plundering hearts of the people of the Dangxiang clan." In this way, my country will have one less enemy, and there will be too many casualties for Xia Guo, wouldn't it be the best result? ”
Yusang was stunned again, he really didn't expect Sun Tu to act with such a big purpose. After a long time, he sighed and said, "Lord Sun's mind and ambition are indeed far beyond the comprehension of the little monk. But this is also the little monk's lifelong wish, I just want to have no more soldiers in this world, and everyone is good ......" said, and announced another Buddha name, and then bowed to Sun Tu solemnly, and then retreated.
In the following days, Sun Tu was busy treating patients in these two villages outside Dingzhou with those langzhong. With the medicine that Sun Tu took out and the cooperation of Lang Zhong, this epidemic, which could have brought great harm, was finally completely controlled after five or six days, even if some patients were not completely cured, but depending on the situation, it was impossible to recur.
It was only at this time that Sun Tu successfully retired and returned to Dingzhou City. And this time, he has become a celebrity in the city, not only the people praised him, but even the king of Yue looked at him differently, and deliberately ran to the second gate to greet him, which really gave him enough face.
Accepting the gift of 1,000 taels of gold from King Yue, he explained to the fine seal that he did not intend to conceal it, but that the prescription passed down from the family was just right to cure this disease, and it was also seen through by Master Yusang's eyes, and this time the matter was finally over.
After solving the thorny problem of the epidemic outside the city, King Yue finally had no worries, and decided to go to the capital Xingqing Mansion with them. It's just that as the lord of a city, he has a lot of important military and political affairs in his hands, so it is naturally impossible to leave as soon as he says, so he delayed for a while.
It wasn't until late October that Sun Tu and they were officially able to set off, and they were on the road with them, this time there was also a mulberry wax man, and it was less than a month before Li Qianshun's birthday.
Although it didn't take a few days at the speed of the fast horses of the summer country, as the real winter came, a heavy snow also fell from the sky in time. As a result, their procession slowed down a lot, and it was not until the fifth day of the first month of November, ten days before the emperor's birthday, that they finally arrived at Xingqing Mansion, the summer capital.
In fact, it was not too late to arrive at this time, but what they didn't expect was that because of this delay, some people had already targeted them!
