Chapter 2: Wonderful rejuvenation to save the people, inherit the ancient recipe and benefit the people
Along the way, An Daoquan and Sanniang donated medicine to relieve the poor people, and Cizhao preached and preached, and many believers also gathered along the way.
On this day, I came to the border of Gwangju, but I saw that the people who were packing their bags and dragging their children and running away along the way, the group was very strange, Ou Peng stepped forward to stop a few and asked only to know that there was a plague in a town near Gwangju, the epidemic was fierce, and the doctors on the left were helpless, and many people had died, so all the people who could still move began to flee.
After listening to Ou Peng's report, after Sanniang and An Daoquan glanced at each other, Sanniang said to Gongsun Sheng: "Mr. Lao Gongsun first took everyone back to the village to wait, and I and Doctor An went to that town first to see, but what kind of epidemic it was." ”
Ou Peng said when he heard this: "Lady, I'll go together." Sanniang shook her head and said: "The epidemic is not like a sword soldier, it doesn't matter how high or low your martial arts are, and it doesn't matter how bold you are, once it's really a fatal epidemic, once you get infected, you can't do anything." Doctor An Shen and I are both healers, and we have our own ways to take care of you, if you go with you, it will only distract the two of me to take care of you, so I will wait with Mr. Gongsun to the village first. Remember that there is a plague in the left and near, and you must be careful in your diet. At that moment, after Sanniang carefully explained the food and drink, she and An Daoquan took the medical burden on their backs and looked at the plague town together.
After walking twenty or thirty miles, I saw that town, and there were seven or eight hundred households in the distance, but at this time the sky above this town was only filled with smoke, and white flags were hung in front of every house, and every house was full of crying.
As soon as Sanniang smelled the smell in the wind, it was the boss who smelled of corpses, and immediately took a few pieces of purple ginger from the medicine bag and cut them and wiped them on the mouth and nose, which also made An Daoquan wipe them in general, and then took out two thick gauze face towels, two wrapped the face towel around the mouth and nose, and then took two pairs of gloves and put them on.
Sanniang said: "Doctor An, the epidemic here seems to be very ferocious, and you must be careful. An Daoquan said: "Exactly, you need to be careful in your diet." The two of them looked into the town as they spoke.
When I entered the inside, I saw that this place was desolate, every household was hanging vegetarian, and every household was crying. When the two turned into a house to look, they saw that there were only two husbands and wives left in a family of seven, all the old and the young were dead, and the corpses were not buried, only the quilts and straw mats wrapped the bodies and parked them in the courtyard.
Sanniang stepped forward and said, "The two of us are doctors, so I came to see the patient." Both husband and wife cried, "Everyone is dead, what else can we see?" Sanniang said: "Although the relatives have passed away, but you two are still alive, you have to live well, let me see the two of you first, but you have been infected." The husband and wife cried and thanked them, Sanniang looked at them with the two, and An Daoquan went to inspect the corpses.
Sanniang found that two throats were swollen after examining the two, which seemed to be the acute throat closure, and sure enough, An Daoquan came to the front after reading the corpse and said: "It is the acute throat closure disease, remember the five years of Yuanyou, from spring to summer and autumn, the people of Qi and Huang Er County suffered from acute throat closure, ten deaths, eight or nine out of ten, and the fast one died in half a day and one day, it seems that this town suffers from this disease." ”
While he was talking, the husband and wife were sick together, and they both covered their throats, and their mouths were ho-ho, as if their throats were choked. Sanniang saw it, and hurriedly took out the silver needle, and after the nails on the outside of the big fingers of the two people, a leek leaf Xu, the bleeding of the needle, the man on the left and the woman on the right, and the symptoms of the two were relieved after the blood came out.
An Daoquan looked at it and praised: "Hu Niangzi is really well-informed, and this kind of acupuncture method is the fastest way to treat this disease." It's just that if a large section is critical, you need to use both hands and fingers, and its effect is very fast. The system of the lungs of the person who covers the throat, and the place where the needle is supplied, is the well of the lungs, so the bleeding heals. Then An Daoquan took out another croton wrapped in yellow wax paper, the size of the nostrils of the two people, the center was cut, and the nose was stuffed in a hurry.
After seeing it, Sanniang also said: "Doctor An's method is good, rushing into it with croton gas, and the throat will be self-broken, and it will be removed immediately after feeling Tongli, and it will be harmless if there are few sores in the back of the nose." The two looked at each other and smiled, and after each used a method to save the husband and wife, the two of them gasped for a long time before they became calm.
After the husband and wife got their lives, they immediately stepped forward to bow down, and Sanniang prescribed another prescription, took out the medicinal herbs to teach the two to boil the medicine to drink, and said in her mouth: "This epidemic is easy to cure, and you have to take this prescription on time for a month to be cured." The two of them thanked each other again, and Sanniang said again: "This eldest brother, you can teach your sister-in-law to cook medicine at home, and you lead the two of me to treat others." ”
At that moment, the man responded, taught the Hun family to boil medicine at home, and led Hu Sanniang and An Daoquan to other households to see a doctor. After visiting several households in a row, seventeen or eighteen people were saved, and the people who were near Zuo came to see the doctor, and the two set up stalls in front of the land temple in the village, and there were always two or three hundred people who came to see the doctor.
Sanniang and An Daoquan two, while seeing the disease, while first aid, no one died of illness, after seeing that everyone was at ease, Sanniang taught the village to bring more than ten strong men, door-to-door to help clean up the corpses at home, all buried deep first, sprinkled with lime and other things. He also sent people to teach each family to clean all the eating utensils, and splash them with strong vinegar in front of the door and inside the house to repel flies and rodents, so as to prevent the breeding of other epidemics.
After a busy day, when the sky was dark, everything was done, and then Sanniang taught people to set up a cauldron in front of the land temple, boiled a large pot of soup medicine such as banlan root and other herbs, and taught people who had not yet suffered from the disease to drink a few bowls.
An Daoquan looked at it and said: "Hu Niangzi's method is very good, and people who are not sick should also take tonic decoction for prevention." Sanniang said: "In fact, if many diseases can be treated more carefully, they will not be infected, and I have written a book here "Four Seasons Plague Prevention Theory" to talk about this prevention. ”
An Daoquan took it and looked at it carefully, and after only reading a few pages, he said: "The lady is careful, and what is described in it makes a lot of sense, such as boiling water before drinking, washing hands before and after meals, separating people and animals, etc. ”
Sanniang smiled and said: "Doctor An is also an expert, and you can know the benefits at a glance." In fact, the reason why people get sick is that there are many people who can't see the tiny insects in our bodies, and the Buddha said that there are 47,000 insects in a bowl of water. If you don't eat carefully and eat more worms, you will get sick sooner or later. ”
An Daoquan sighed: "I have never heard of this theory. At that moment, Sanniang told An Daoquan about the bacteria and viruses later, and An Daoquan was amazed when he heard it, and finally said: "It's just that you can't see these insects with your own eyes." Sanniang said: "This matter will take some hands and feet, after returning to the cottage, and see if you can fire a more transparent glass, if you can make it, you may be able to see it." ”
An Daoquan said again: "Hu Niangzi has made this discovery, and she can already write a book and pass it on alone, and she has become a school of medicine and Taoism, which will be passed on to future generations." Sanniang smiled and said: "I don't care about these, I have a lot of things, these things will be handed over to you by Taiyi An, after returning to the cottage, I will teach you all my experience, and in the future, you will do this errand that will be passed on to future generations." ”
An Daoquan frowned and said: "This matter is not possible, it is all the hard work of Hu Niangzi, how can Xiao Ke impersonate it?" Sanniang shook her head and said: "When I studied under Tang Shenwei, a famous doctor in Shuzhong, I saw the hardships of the master, and most of the good prescriptions in the world were lost, because many doctors still have the view of the door, and they are afraid of the apprentices of the church and starve to death of the master." It's Doctor An, you, who have medical skills, and are also ancestors, and you don't see any personal disciples, and this kind of portal view is the most harmful. It is because I want to start from me, so I will abandon this view of the door, and in the future, I will open a medical hall in Shaohua Mountain, open the door to teach, collect good prescriptions from all over the world, recruit medical apprentices, and teach me to pass on what I have learned, this is good. ”
An Daoquan was silent for a long time before he said: "The lady is so open-minded, teach me that a man is ashamed." I am not talented, and I am willing to do this great thing with my wife, and spread my medical skills to future generations! Sanniang was overjoyed and said: "Doctor An has such a mind and is also a good man!" ”
After a night of turmoil, the two rested in the land temple, and in the middle of the night, people from other places rushed to see the doctor after hearing the news, and both of them also got up to see a doctor, and they did not shirk at all. Both of them are skilled medical people, and they are really good at curing the disease and rejuvenating the hand.
When the morning came, the village was bringing a group of people who had been treated, beating gongs and drums, preparing gifts such as red wine gifts, pigs, sheep, chickens and geese to thank them. Sanniang and An Daoquan insisted on not giving gifts, and Sanniang only said: "I am the holy daughter of the White Lotus Sect, and I am here to practice medicine, and I will benefit the people by giving medicine and medicine, and I will not take a penny." ”
When everyone heard this, they all knelt on the ground and bowed and thanked each other, and they only praised Sanniang's maid Bodhisattva, female Guanyin and so on. Sanniang and An Daoquan smiled bitterly, and immediately invited someone to the neighboring village to inform Gongsun Sheng and others to come.
When he was young, Gongsun Sheng, Cizhao monk and others came to gather, Cizhao monk opened the Buddhist altar to preach, and the people in the village came to listen to the lecture. For a time, everyone in the village paid homage to the monk and Hu Sanniang, the holy woman of the White Lotus.
After a delay in the village for half a month, the people in the village were able to enter the teaching, and the monk Cizhao taught a disciple Puyi to stay, so he opened the White Lotus Hall here, and opened the altar to preach the Buddha in the morning and evening, and taught people to enter the religion. Then the group went back to Shaohua Mountain.
After more than a month of walking all the way, the group finally arrived at Shaohua Mountain, Shi Jin, Zhu Wu and other leaders heard the news, and they all went to Nantingkou to greet each other, and when everyone saw each other, they were all happy. When Sanniang only looked at Shi Jin, she was worried at first that this guy would see her women's clothes and what kind of moths would come out, but after Shi Jin saw Sanniang, she was just stunned for a moment and praised: "Senior brother is so beautiful." And he was speechless. I saw that this guy was full of spring light, and his eyes were not unusual, and a big stone fell in his heart, and he secretly thought: "He has passed this hurdle after all." ”
This trip Sanniang and Gongsun Sheng returned to the mountain, attracting a total of Ou Peng, Jiang Jing, Ma Lin, Zheng Ying, Tao Zongwang, Wang Dingliu, An Daoquan seven leaders into the gang, and there were Cizhao monks and fifteen White Lotus disciples to arrive, and everyone was happy.
On the same day, Sanniang settled Cizhao monk and other Buddhist disciples in Shaohua Mountain Yunlong Temple for a while, that Yunlong Temple has been renovated by Zhu Wu and others, Sanniang asked Cizhao monk to preach here. On the day of entering the temple, Sanniang waved her pen and renamed Yunlong Temple as White Lotus Temple, and since then this temple has become the holy place of the White Lotus Sect.
