Chapter 10 Blank Paper!
Tang Ning originally didn't want to take Tang Xiaoxiao away, because in addition to her long legs, her other strengths were not obvious, and she liked to scare herself in shock.
He was always on guard against whether she would take advantage of his lack of attention and do another blow on his head.
With his understanding of Tang Yaoyao, she did this kind of thing.
But if he didn't take her, he wouldn't know where Guojiacun was, although he could find someone to ask, but he wouldn't say if it was reliable, and it would be troublesome to find it, which would delay time.
In case the old fairy escapes, where will he find it?
So Tang Ning could only reluctantly take her with him.
Fortunately, she has long legs and big steps, so she will not become a drag on him.
When the two of them walked out of the city gate, Tang Yaoyao turned his head to look at him and asked, "Hey, haven't you remembered your name yet?" ”
Tangning shook his head.
Tang Yaoyao was puzzled: "Uncle Zhong has checked the house, there is no one named Tang Ning in Yongan County, and there are no villages and big households surnamed Tang around Lingzhou City, is your name nonsense?" ”
Tang Ning looked at her and asked, "Isn't your family a big family?" ”
Tang Yaoyao glanced at him and asked, "There is only one Tang family in Lingzhou City, could it be that you are our Tang family?" ”
Tang Ning didn't dwell on this issue, and changed the topic: "What happened in Guojia Village, it seems that all the catchers of the county government have been dispatched......
Tang Xiaoyao knew more than him, and after Tang Ning listened, he probably knew what was going on.
Guojia Village is a village under the jurisdiction of Yongan County, and since yesterday, many people in the village have suffered from vomiting and diarrhea, because the number of people who have fallen ill is too large, and Zhong Mingli, as the county magistrate, must pay attention to it.
This is not like the murder case a few days ago, the murderer could not be caught, at most it was a negligence of the county order, which damaged the political performance.
Half of the villagers fell ill at the same time, and once it was not well controlled, the scope of the spread expanded again, which was called "plague" in ancient times.
If the plague breaks out in Yong'an County, Lingzhou Thorn Shi may still be able to withstand the pressure, and the official hat on his father-in-law's head will definitely not be saved.
However, listening to Tang Yaoyao's description, the villagers of Guojia Village should be similar to food poisoning, or water pollution that causes diarrhea or dysentery, not like a large-scale epidemic, but even so, it should not be taken lightly.
When Tang Ning and Tang Yaoyao came to Guojia Village, Zhong Mingli and the catchers of the county government were stopped at the entrance of the village by the villagers of Guojia Village, and they were stopped with the Sun Divine Doctor that Tang Ning had seen.
An old man wearing coarse cloth clothes and white hair looked at Zhong Mingli and said, "Lord Zhong, it's not that I won't let you in, it's just that the old fairy is catching ghosts and driving away evil spirits inside, all of you go in, if you disturb the old fairy and let go of the evil things, what can we do in this village?" ”
Zhong Mingli pointed to Doctor Sun beside him and said, "Guo Cunzheng, this is the famous Doctor Sun, he can know what diseases the villagers are suffering from, he can see at a glance......
The old man hesitated a little, thinking that although the divine doctor and the immortal were one word different, their skills were far behind, he shook his head and said, "Then we have to wait until the old immortal catches the evil thing......
Tang Ning stood not far away and watched, gaining a deeper understanding of the system of this era.
In ancient times, there was a high degree of autonomy in the local area, and in the village, the clan was often the unit of the clan, and the clan head of the clan even controlled the life and death power of the clansmen.
Zhong Mingli thought for a while and said, "In this case, this official also wants to see how the old immortal catches ghosts and exorcises evil spirits. ”
The village looked at him and said, "You can't all go in, you'll disturb the old immortals." ”
Zhong Mingli nodded, turned around, and saw Tang Ning and Tang Xiaoyao.
His face changed slightly, and he asked, "Why are you here?" ”
Tang Yaoyao thought for a while and said, "Aunt Zhong asked us to ask, do you want to go home for dinner in the afternoon?" ”
"Eat."
Zhong Mingli replied, looked away from the two of them, pointed to a catcher and a small official, and said, "Peng Chen, Qin Shu, you come in with me, and the others are waiting outside......"
Then, he looked at Tang Ning and Tang Xiaoyao and said, "You guys should come in too." ”
A vacant lot was cleared at the entrance to Guojia Village.
In front of the altar, an old Taoist priest with a white beard and white eyebrows held a peachwood sword, holding a yellow rune paper on the tip of the sword, stepping on strange steps, and chanting words in his mouth.
With just one glance, seeing this posture that he had seen countless times in film and television dramas and was no longer familiar with, Tang Ning knew that he was in vain today.
Tang Yaoyao looked at the front with interest, and said in surprise: "It turns out that catching ghosts is like this......"
Sick villagers were placed in a nearby clearing, and a small Taoist priest shuttled through them, sprinkling water from a porcelain vase on their heads.
Doctor Sun walked over, squatted down, called the pulse for a few people, and looked at the tongue coating again, and then stood up, his face slightly gloomy.
Zhong Mingli hurriedly asked, "How is it?" ”
Doctor Sun said in a deep voice: "Nausea and vomiting, frequent abdominal pain, red tongue, yellow and dry tongue, and a slipper......y pulse."
Zhong Mingli was surprised: "What does this mean?" ”
"Dysentery." Tang Ning said: "Sudden onset, strong heat and thirst, headache and irritability, nausea and vomiting, frequent stool, fresh purple pus and blood under dysentery, severe abdominal pain, even fainting and convulsions, red tongue, yellow and dry tongue, slippery pulse or slight ......despair, epidemic and diarrhea. ”
He couldn't help but speak, dysentery was a disease with a high mortality rate in ancient times, basically it could only be based on prevention, supplemented by treatment, if Zhong Mingli couldn't pay enough attention, once the disease spread and could not be controlled, his county order would be done, and Tang Ning's stable days would be over.
Doctor Sun looked at him, nodded, and said, "Little brother is right. ”
Zhong Mingli glanced at Tang Ning in surprise, Tang Xiaoxiao grabbed his arm, and asked expectantly, "You remember again?" ”
Tang Ning nodded and said, "I have remembered so much for the time being. ”
Zhong Mingli's gaze temporarily moved away from Tang Ning's body, looked at Doctor Sun, and asked, "Is it serious?" ”
Doctor Sun's face was serious, and he said, "There is no time to delay. ”
Zhong Mingli's heart sank suddenly, he looked at the old immortal who was still "exorcizing evil spirits" over there, and then looked at the fanatical villagers around him, and said helplessly: "Not yet......
On the other side, Tang Yaoyao looked at Tang Ning with some surprise and asked, "Do you remember anything else?" ”
Tangning shook his head.
Tang Yaoyao was a little happy and said, "It's okay, I can think of it every day like this, and one day I will remember it all......"
As soon as her words fell, before the altar, the old Taoist priest with strange steps had stopped and said loudly: "Eight directions of mighty gods, make me natural, Lingbao talisman, proclaim nine days; Qianluo Dana, Donggang Taixuan, slashing demons and binding evil, saving thousands of people......"
"Oh, demon, don't show your original form soon!"
Tang Yaoyao was startled by this sudden sound, but saw that the old Taoist put a piece of white paper on the fire and gently roasted it, and on the white paper, a hideous ghost head actually appeared.
The onlookers couldn't help but take a few steps back, a look of horror appeared on their faces, and even Zhong Mingli and Doctor Sun couldn't help but change their faces.
They looked at the ghost head on the white paper, and their hearts set off turbulent waves.
That old Taoist really used an ordinary blank piece of paper to make the demon manifest?
"Ahh
Tang Yaoyao couldn't help but let out an exclamation, hid behind Tang Ning, grabbed his arm tightly, and said in a trembling voice: "Ghost, there is a ghost ......"
"What the hell you're big!"
Tang Ning's arm was painful when she grabbed it, and he couldn't help but knock on her head and said, "Isn't it just a blank paper, I'll go back and teach you ......"
"You can catch ghosts too?" Tang Yaoyao didn't care about what he had just knocked on his head, raised his head, and asked in extreme shock.
Tang Ning pursed his lips and said, "That's it, I'm the thirty-eighth generation descendant of the Maoshan faction, what's the point of catching a few little ghosts......"
Writing on white paper with vinegar, drying it, and then roasting it will show up again, which is a science experiment done in elementary school.
Tang Yaoyao stared at him and said suspiciously, "Don't you remember who you are?" ”
Tang Ning looked at her and wondered, "Did I just say something?" ”
……
The old Taoist priest put the white paper on the table with the ghost's head on it, and was very satisfied with everyone's performance.
He looked around and said, "This seat has cast a spell and sealed that demon on a white piece of paper. ”
"Thank you, old fairy!"
"Thank you, old fairy!"
……
The villagers of Guojia Village looked pious and bowed their heads.
At this time, the old Taoist suddenly sighed and said, "It's a pity that the cultivation of this seat is limited, but there is no mana to subdue another demon ......."
When the villagers of Guojia Village heard this, their faces turned pale again.
The old man in the village changed his complexion, stepped forward, stuffed a bag into Lao Dao's hand, and begged: "Old fairy, this is a little respect for us, please, you must save us!" ”
Lao Dao weighed the weight of the bag, shook his head, and said, "It's not that this seat won't help you, it's really a limited mana......"
Lao Muramasa stuffed another bag in his hand.
Lao Dao hesitated for a moment and said, "Mana has ......"
Another bag slipped into his hand.
Seeing that Muramasa couldn't take out the bags anymore, Lao Dao waved his sleeves, and the bags disappeared into his sleeves.
With a righteous and awe-inspiring look on his face, he said, "In this case, even if this seat is empty of mana, it will be the way of heaven again!" ”
He glanced around the crowd a few times, picked up another piece of white paper, and said, "This seat is about to cast a spell to punish evil again, who wants to take this white paper, this seat can seal that demon into it." ”
When the surrounding villagers heard this, they immediately took a step back.
Lao Dao's eyes looked at the young man and woman.
When the first "demon" appeared just now, everyone showed shocked and frightened expressions, only the pair of men and women were not only not afraid, but also "flirting", his eyes looked at the woman, and asked with a smile: "I wonder if this girl is willing to do it for you?" ”
Tang Yaoyao's face turned pale, and he hurriedly took two steps back.
Lao Dao's eyes looked at the young man beside her again, and asked, "What about this son?" ”
Tang Ning was stunned, stretched out his finger and pointed to his nose, and said uncertainly: "Me?" ”
Lao Dao had a smile on his face: "It's you." ”
The second exorcism of evil spirits, not using his disciples, but pretending to be the hand of this young man, can completely dispel everyone's doubts.
Tang Ning looked at him and said with a smile, "Okay." ”
