Chapter II. 42

It is the beginning of spring, and the cold wind is still blowing in Fengjing City in the early morning. Under this ghostly sky, the Sun Medical Center on Xiangyang Street in the south of the city is still brightly lit.

Sun's medical hall is the ancestral business of the Sun family, which has been passed to the two brothers Sun Baishu and Sun Baizhi, and it has been nearly 60 years. After the turmoil that led to the fragmentation of the Huayu Continent, Dr. Sun dragged the family to the East Customs to Youbei 3rd Road, in order to avoid the war.

At this time, the three roads in the north are like the rising sun. Although people have different faces, they are full of hope in their eyebrows and eyes. Although everyone's life was very hard, in that environment at that time, from the officials and gentry to the common people, they all worked together and worked hard to do their own things seriously.

Such a stable life like a paradise also made Dr. Sun's family, who had been devastated by the war, fall in love with this place. Although the people of Youbei at this time believed in shamanic gods and witches, with Dr. Sun's superb medical skills, he could barely support the family.

Baiyun Canggou, grass grows and warbler flies, Sun Baishu, the contemporary descendant of Sun's Medical Hall, has become the chief imperial doctor in the palace in a blink of an eye, and the official worships Sipintai Hospital. As an official of the Tai Hospital, he naturally served in the Tai Hospital in the past, and the ancestral business of the family, the Sun Medical Center, was naturally handed over to the second brother Sun Baizhi.

The second young master, Sun Baizhi, and his brother Sun Baizhu are compatriots, but they are completely different in terms of medical talent and temperament.

His brother Sun Baishu, who has been familiar with the Four Books and Five Classics since he was a child, and then read the remnants of the medical scriptures with his father, coupled with the unique secret recipes of the Sun family, whether it is to run the ancestral medical hall or join the Tai Hospital to serve the royal family, it is more than enough. Although Sun Baishu has a family history and is willing to work hard when he was a child, he is helpless to be limited by his talent and develops mediocre on top of Qihuang; Coupled with his conservative and cautious temperament, he prescribes medicine on weekdays, and he is mostly neutral and peaceful. Therefore, to be honest, Sun Baishu has practiced medicine all his life, and although he has not made any mistakes, he cannot cure any serious diseases. Of course, such medical practice standards are very consistent with his current professional identity.

On the other hand, Sun Baizhi has been stubborn since she was a child, and her personality is impulsive and irritable. After running away from Mr. Enlightenment for several years, his brother locked him in the study in desperation. I didn't think that I was claustrophobic for only 100 days, and Sun Baizhi, who was bored, read all the books in the house, and even the "Huayu Landscape Classic", which specializes in landscape geology, can actually be memorized backwards. You must know that the collection of books in this study room has been accumulated by Sun Baishu for many years, and there are even many rare books, and even he only roughly turns a few pages.

Sun Baizhi, who was weak after the crown, had been trained by his brother for three years, and naturally took over the ancestral business of the family. But a few days after Sun Baizhu moved into the Tai Hospital, something happened to the Sun Family Hospital.

The first patient of this Sun Jiaerlang was a middle-aged river worker who made a living cleaning the river at Fengjing Wharf on weekdays. The work is hard, and naturally the amount of food is larger. For some reason, it has not been excreted for ten days, resulting in a swollen intestine, sores at the corners of the mouth, and a pair of eyes covered with bloodshots. Therefore, he came to the Sun Medical Center.

This is just a severe constipation caused by an ordinary false fire, but it is just an ordinary prescription to clear away heat and remove fire, and add some laxative herbs such as senna or croton to cure. Sun Baizhi also prescribed the same prescription, and slightly increased the dosage of croton under the needs of patients.

According to this treatment, the riverworker will not be in danger of life, except that he will be able to diarrhea faster. But the problem lies in this "faster".

It was only half an hour after the river worker returned to take the medicine, and then he ran to the hut and poured for thousands of miles. This constipation, which had tormented me for nearly half a month, disappeared without a trace with this hearty diarrhea.

The river worker who walked out of the thatched hut only felt that his body was unprecedentedly smooth at this moment, and even with the loss of appetite a few days ago, he disappeared without a trace. In order to celebrate the recovery of his health, the middle-aged river worker weighed back a large piece of fatty pork from the market, plus a whole jar of wine, and ate a "Qingtong feast".

For all heavy manual laborers, the daily diet is mainly heavy salty and thick. After a whole pot of stewed pork belly and a jar of sorghum wine, this river worker naturally felt dry mouth.

So he made a fateful decision: to drink half a bucket of cold well water to quench his thirst.

And so, in the middle of the night, the riverman died in the stinking hut.

From the place of death to the remaining medicinal materials in the kitchen, all suspicions point to Sun Baizhi, who is practicing medicine for the first time. And the prescription stamped with the red seal of Angelica dahurica shows that he has increased the amount of croton by half. Everyone naturally thinks that this is a quack murder case with ironclad evidence.

Sun Baizhi, who suffered an injustice, realized that although he could cure the disease, he could not cure the person. Therefore, after his reputation for killing people and quacks spread, Sun Baizhi, who was broken and broken, was even more bold in practicing medical medicine, although he cured many incurable diseases, but also killed many patients. Therefore, most of the patients who come to Sun Baizhi are terminally ill, and they are all people who want to treat a dead horse as a live horse doctor and finally have a chance to do it.

Therefore, this Sun Erlang was crowned with a resounding name among the people of Youbei and the people of the rivers and lakes.

"Reverse yin and yang!"

And Sun Baizhi, the "inverted yin and yang" in front of Shen Gui, was carefully wiping the inner hall of Sun's Medical Hall with the wet rag in his hand. On the hospital bed in the center of the inner hall lay a corpse with a white sheet covering its head.

"It's cold on this day, and the blood is very hard to wipe on the wall."

Sun Baizhi looked extremely serious, rubbing the corner of the inner hall vigorously, and kept making a "rustling" sound. Shen Gui stepped forward, also picked up a rag and dipped it in some water, and began to wipe the conspicuous bloodstains.

"Don't bother with the wall, go back and find a few craftsmen, and put the lime cover on the road again."

Sun Baizhi didn't stop when she heard Shen Gui's words, and her hands were still stubbornly rubbing against the pink blood stains on the wall:

"You say, how should the wind evil enter the body?"

Shen Guiteng stood up and shouted angrily at Sun Baizhi:

"What? You kid can't cure it at all! Do you dare to do that? Are you really like the rumors, you can't practice with a living person? ”

may be caused by the fatigue of this day and night, and Sun Baizhi's temper at this time is similar to that of him in the past. In the face of Shen Gui's accusation, he only responded lightly:

"In the surviving ancient medical books, there are also records of the pathology of wind evil entering the body. The so-called blood and qi, and walking on the top, is a great convulsion, and the syncope is a violent death; Whoever treats the elimination, servant blows, partial dryness, impotence, full of qi and rebellion, and fat nobles, the disease of sorghum is also. If the partition is closed, and the upper and lower parts are blocked, then the disease of violent anxiety is also. Violent and deaf and occlusive, and the internal qi is also thin. Do not suffer from the disease of stroke from inside and outside, so the thin remains. Plantar lameness, cold rheumatism also. ”

The medical book mentioned by Sun Baizhi is the plain question of the Yellow Emperor's Neijing. Shen Gui saw that he was not ignorant, and looked at the corpse covered with a white sheet on the hospital bed strangely:

"Then why was it okay just now, but you were killed in the blink of an eye?"

"Can you speak? Just now he was lying upright on the altar, how many pairs of eyes were watching. How did it become good? ”

"Bagh just had a stroke in the afternoon, and in a blink of an eye, everyone was hard! You can't say anything, can you? ”

"If this disease is more conservative, it is not difficult to save your life. But Bagh is already in his old age, and the decay of qi and blood is inevitable. I thought that if he was left with a crooked eye and half paralyzed, it would be better to take a risk and try to heal him so that he could enjoy his old age in peace. In any case, Bag is a great elder in the shamanic sect, and the fate of the wind evil patient is really not very decent for him. ”

When Shen Gui heard Sun Baishu's words, his emotions were very complicated for a while. There is not only the entanglement of his rhetoric, but also the dialectical thinking from the perspective of Bagh. But the biggest stone in his heart is the gossip that he is about to face.

After being silent for a long time, Shen Gui smiled bitterly:

"Why did you take me out of this big gamble?"
