Langxifu is an important town of the Han Kingdom, and the Langxie City is one of the largest cities in the Han Kingdom, the economic development of this place is second only to Qindao and Linzi and Luoyang, which has just started, it can be regarded as a prosperous and wealthy city, and there is a young man named Qian Jinlin who went to a newly opened pharmacy to work as a partner. Unlike ordinary pharmacies, this pharmacy has three copper kettles hanging in front of the door, which is only open at night. Moreover, the shopkeeper of the pharmacy told Qian Jinlin to always pay attention to these three copper kettles, and not to ask the bad guys to calculate.

One day, a splash came to the pharmacy with a thin bamboo pole to pick up the copper kettle, and Qian Jinlin stopped it when he saw it. In the evening, Qian Jinlin asked the shopkeeper: "Shopkeeper, why do we have to hang three copper kettles in front of our store, and why do some people come to make trouble and pick up copper kettles?" ”

The shopkeeper stroked his beard and said, "Hehe, have you heard the story of 'hanging pots to help the world'?" The number of copper kettles represents the level of medical skills. If there are three copper kettles hanging in front of the pharmacy, it means that any disease can be cured. The peers are enemies, and as soon as these three copper kettles are hung, can the shopkeepers of other pharmacies feel better? They'll call someone to make trouble every now and then. ”

That night, Qian Jinlin was pulling the abacus to settle the accounts, and the door was pushed open with a "creak". He looked up, but saw no one, thinking that the wind had blown the door open, and just wanted to close the door, his foot tripped over something, and when he looked down, there was a person lying on the ground, holding a thin bamboo pole in his hand.

Qian Jinlin was taken aback and asked, "Who are you and what are you going to do?" The man said, "Nonsense, this is a pharmacy, what am I doing here?" Buy medicine and see a doctor, what about your shopkeeper? ”

The shopkeeper came over when he heard the sound, turned on the wick of the oil lamp, and when he looked closely, he saw that the man's knees were turned backwards.

The man said, "Alas, what a misfortune, when I was plowing the land, I was pushed up to my knees by horns, and this is what happened. What do you think, sir? ”

Before the shopkeeper could speak, Qian Jinlin said: "You have moved your bones, you have to take the bones." ”

The man shook his head: "I'm afraid of pain, you must not touch my bones." There are three copper kettles hanging in front of your door, and if you can't cure them, I'll take them off. As he spoke, he shook the bamboo pole in his hand.

Qian Jinlin whispered to the shopkeeper: "This person must have come to make trouble, or he will bring a bamboo pole to see a doctor, let's blow him out, right?" The shopkeeper shook his head: "How can that be done?" Three copper kettles were hung in front of our door, and all diseases could be cured, and all patients could be treated. ”

"But, he won't let the bones move, what should I do?" Qian Jinlin was anxious.

The shopkeeper approached the patient to examine it carefully, nodded, and said, "Okay, I won't move your bones, but I will ask for a rope." So saying, he took a thick hemp rope and tied the man up with three strokes and two strokes.

The man was frightened and said, "What do you want to do?" ”

The shopkeeper said, "Don't be afraid, I'm here to heal you!" ”

The shopkeeper and Qian Jinlin worked hard to hang the patient on the beam. After hanging up, the shopkeeper was reading under the lamp, and Qian Jinlin dialed the abacus in front of the counter and left the patient aside. The man cried out, "What do you want to do, can you see me?" ”

The shopkeeper smiled slightly: "Don't worry, isn't this just treating you?" In less than half an hour, your knees will turn. ”

After about half a burnt of incense, the shopkeeper took the oil lamp and approached the man, and found that his knee had really turned. Look at this person again, with an embarrassed face, so embarrassed. In the end, this man can only tell the truth. It turned out that he had been hired by another pharmacy to cause trouble, and he knew how to do clavicle surgery, which allowed him to turn his knee in the opposite direction, but the bone was not injured. The shopkeeper had already seen it and deliberately hung him up, the man was off the ground, his limbs were hanging in the air, his whole body could not exert his strength, and the "twisted" bones could only be slowly reset, and his knees turned around.

A few days after this incident passed, another big man came in front of the pharmacy, holding a bamboo pole in his hand. Qian Jinlin took a look, okay, another one picks the pot. As soon as the man entered the door, he said, "Shopkeeper, my pulse is beating hard, much faster than ordinary people, if I can't be cured, I'm afraid I will die of heart failure!" ”

Look at this man, the shopkeeper has a tiger's back and a bear's waist, and his face is ruddy, how does he look like he is sick? But as soon as he took the pulse, sure enough, Dahan's pulse beat almost twice as fast as the average person. The shopkeeper frowned, looked and asked, but found nothing abnormal.

The shopkeeper got up, circled around the big man, and suddenly smiled and said, "There are worms in the veins of your thighs, you take off your pants, and I can cure you." ”

The big man was helpless, so he took off his pants, only to see that there were several needle holes on his right leg. The shopkeeper smiled slightly: "See, the insects got in through these little eyes." Bugs drink blood, and when there is less blood, your pulse will naturally become faster, in order to make the blood flow faster. ”

A trace of uneasiness flashed across the big man's face: "Then how to cure it?" ”

The shopkeeper said: "This insect is most afraid of fire, I use a soldering iron to put on the eyes of these needles, and with a 'sting' sound, your pulse will be normal." ”

The big man broke out in a cold sweat and said, "I'm gone." ”

The shopkeeper said, "That's not good, you're here to pick up the pot, and you can only leave when you're cured." ”

The big man put on his pants, his face was full of embarrassment: "I'm not cured, just don't pick your pot." ”

When the big man left, Qian Jinlin was confused and asked, "Why didn't he cure it?" ”

The shopkeeper said, "He is not sick at all, and of course he does not need to be cured." ”

"Then why is his pulse so fast?"

The shopkeeper smiled: "When I gave him a pulse just now, his butt was not sitting on a stool, but hanging in the air. Sitting in the air requires exertion, and the pulse will naturally be faster. Not only did he hang his buttocks, but he also pricked his thighs with thin needles so that when his muscles contracted, his pulse would be faster. ”

Qian Jinlin nodded, sighing that the shopkeeper was really sharp-eyed and had seen through all these little tricks.

A few days later, a man with a bloody face was carried to the pharmacy on a bamboo bed. One of the bed-bearers said, "Shopkeeper, my brother has lost his breath, take a look." ”

Qian Jinlin said angrily: "Everyone is dead, what are you sending here for?" ”

The man said, "My brother has died, and he has a 'death disease'!" Aren't you curable of everything? Don't talk nonsense, hurry up and see my brother, or I'll pick up the pot. ”

The shopkeeper leaned in front of the bamboo bed, smelled a foul smell, and then sniffed, and was already out of breath. The shopkeeper thought for a while, pulled off one of his hair, and leaned in front of the man's nose, and after a while, he smiled slightly and said, "It can be cured, and death can also be cured." As he spoke, he turned back to the pharmacy and brought a piece of dog skin plaster. The plaster was baked on the oil lamp and became sticky, and the shopkeeper put the plaster on his hand, and with a "snap", it was pasted on the man's face, blocking his nose and mouth.

When they lifted the bed, they shouted, "What are you doing here?" This is disrespectful to the dead! ”

The shopkeeper said, "I am healing your brother." In the past, Hua Tuo split his skull in order to cure the disease, but I just used a piece of dog skin plaster to seal your brother's 'true qi'. ”

Not long after, the patient sat up and was cured. It turned out that the man had eaten an herb as if he had died. The shopkeeper put his hair in front of his nose, but it was moving when there was no wind, indicating that this man still had very little breath. Sure enough, a piece of dog skin plaster "suffocated" him.

Those people were so embarrassed that they quickly slipped away with their tails between their legs.

Qian Jinlin couldn't help laughing: "Shopkeeper, you are not only superb in medical skills, but also meticulous as a hair, but why do you only treat people at night?" Your medical skills are so high, you can make more money by seeing more doctors! ”

The shopkeeper smiled slightly, but did not respond.

In this way, the three copper kettles have been hanging in front of the pharmacy, and for a long time, no one dared to pick up the pots.................
