Chapter 411: Hanging Pots to Help the World (Part II)
After Yide, the old capital of the Song Kingdom, was captured by the Chu army, Yide City was transformed into a large camp of the Chu army, and more than 10,000 Chu troops were stationed in the city. The plague spread from the Song army to the Chu camp, and secretly took root in the city of Yide, causing disaster to the people in the city.
Both the Chu and Song dynasties sent famous doctors from the country to diagnose and treat the plague patients, but some people returned in vain, and some people died of the plague. The Lang Zhong in the city was afraid of getting sick, so they all closed their doors.
There was a shortage of Chinese medicine practitioners in the city, so Liu Ying and Xue Fan entered the city in the name of Shu doctors.
The two saw that the doors of their homes were closed, the streets were empty, and the old capital was like a dead city, and they immediately saw the seriousness of the plague.
Finally met a patrolling Chu soldier on the street, Xue Fan immediately stepped forward and asked, "Do you know where there is a medical hall?" ”
Chu Bing immediately dodged a few steps and asked in a panic, "Did you two get infected with the plague and go to the doctor?" ”
Xue Fan pointed at Liu Ying and said, "My brother is a famous physician in Shu, and when he heard that the plague was rampant here, he brought me here to see what kind of plague this was, which could make the Chu and Song armies stop fighting." ”
Chu Bingqi said: "It's Shu again?" Then he asked himself again: "Seeing that the plague did not go to the military camp of the Song State and came to the territory of our Chu army, it is really a Shu country!" A few days ago, a Shu physician also entered the city. Since you are here to see the plague, why don't you go back to the barracks with me to have a look, it just so happens that the Shu doctor is also in our barracks. ”
Liu Ying nodded.
Xue Fan explained: "Big brother, don't blame, my brother has a dumb disease, and I can only talk to you. ”
Chu Bing looked at the lame and dumb man in simple clothes, and suddenly there was more respect in his tone: "It's okay." If the plague can be cured, it is okay for both of you brothers to speak to me. ”
The three of them looked at each other and smiled, and went to a military camp together.
Xue Fan asked: "Big brother, I heard that this city was originally the old capital of the Song Kingdom, and it must be easy to defend and difficult to attack." I don't know how your Chu army captured this city? ”
Chu Bing struck with both palms, full of interest: "Little brother, good question!" As we all know, the King of Song is insidious, so he naturally wants to use insidious tricks to trap us into the city, and then trap us in the city and send troops to encircle and suppress us.
However, Gongzi has already seen through the tricks of the King of Song, although he led us into the city, but he brought enough grain and grass, so what if he spent it with them in the city? Sure enough, the plague in the Song army was even worse than in our city. They couldn't exhaust us, and they withdrew their troops on their own half a month ago. ”
Xue Fan asked again: "Since the Song army has been defeated by the plague and can no longer come to attack the city, then why are so many Chu troops still guarding the city and not returning to the Chu State?" ”
Chu Bing smiled, leaned over and patted Xue Fan's shoulder: "I didn't expect that although the little brother is young, every question is asked very well!"
It was Gongzi who ordered our whole army to stay in Yide and stand by. As soon as the Chu army came, the old capital of the Song State was guarded, and it was a great victory for the Chu State, and the army's morale would definitely be encouraged. Second, the plague spreads quickly, and if the army returns to Chu, I am afraid that it will bring the plague back. Look at how many people in the Song Realm are infected with the epidemic! ”
While the three of them had spoken, they came to the camp. The Chu soldier led them to a centurion, and the centurion led them to the courtyard where the Chu army's physician lived.
A few people entered the courtyard, only to hear the constant quarrels in the house.
One person said in a high-pitched voice with a Chudi accent: "You are a Jianghu langzhong, why are you aggressive and frequently accuse my master of using the wrong medicine?" What you sell in your gourd is clearly poison! ”
The Shu Di accent responded coldly: "The poison in my gourd, you can't buy it if you want to." ”
Chu Di said in an accent: "Hmph, is your poison more poisonous than the head of Yaowang Mountain?" My master and my master's master are both imperial doctors in the Zhaohuang Palace of our Chu State! If you are a layman, don't pretend to be a famous doctor in Shudi! If you are a famous doctor in Shu, why don't you want to report your name after coming here for many days? I think, you're afraid that you weren't sent by the Song State to make trouble, right? ”
Shu Di accent chuckled: "How many incurable diseases can there be in Zhaohuang Palace?" Even if your ancestors were imperial doctors for eighteen generations, apart from delivering babies to the women in the palace, what diseases have you cured? How many people have been saved?
As for the name, the plague was cured, and I will tell you. If the plague cannot be cured, what is the use of saying the name? I've said your names a hundred times, but I still can't remember them. ”
Another Chudi accent was extremely disdainful: "The mountains and fields are reckless, I don't know the height of the sky, so there is no one in my eyes." ”
Shudi accented: "The frog at the bottom of the well, I don't know that there is a sky outside the sky, so I think so highly of myself." ”
Liu Ying wanted to enter the house, but Xue Fan kept lowering his head and pulling him away.
Liu Ying listened to their bickering while writing the word "your father" in Xue Fan's hand.
Xue Fan muttered: "I didn't say hello to him when I left with you, and when I see him in a while, I don't know if he will scold me." ”
Liu Ying shook his head with a smile and wrote, "He doesn't have time. ”
Entering the house, the centurion of the Chu State introduced: "These two brothers are also doctors who have come here to help us treat the plague. ”
When Xue Jiuming saw Xue Fan and Liu Ying, his eyes were surprised for a moment, and then he raised his eyebrows and asked, "Where did you two little dolls come from to join in the fun?" Don't you know that people will die if they are infected with the plague? ”
Xue Fan saw that Xue Jiuming was not angry, and saw that he was wearing a light purple shirt that he didn't often wear, so he had an idea, and suddenly said happily: "Isn't this gentleman the famous doctor from Zichuan?" I heard that the king of Shu called you to see a doctor! ”
The Chu people on the side said suspiciously: "Do you recognize him?" ”
Xue Fan said: "I recognize." ”
Another Chu said: "Then you tell us what his name is." ”
Xue Fan looked at Xue Jiuming, scratched his head and said, "I recognize, but I suddenly can't remember what his name is." ”
Chu Ren was helpless: "You don't know who his surname is, how can you say that you recognize him?" ”
Xue Fan smiled: "I've seen his portrait, so I know what he looks like." My brother and I are from a small place in Shu, how could we have met the famous doctor of Zichuan? I haven't seen him in person, so I can't remember what his name is. ”
Another Chu man grabbed the junior brother whose eyebrows and eyes were already twisted together, and said, "That's it, why should the junior brother be angry with the same child?" Children are forgetful. He said to Liu Ying behind Xue Fan: "I don't know what the two colleagues are called?" ”
Liu Ying clasped his fists and saluted the two Chu Jun doctors, and pointed to his throat to signal that he could not speak. The doctor understood and returned the salute with a fist. Xue Fan said: "My brother's name is Luo Buqi. He glanced at Xue Jiuming, who was full of displeasure, and said with a smile: "My name is Luo Fan." ”
Senior Brother Chu said: "The two Luo brothers came from afar, which is respectable and admirable. My name is Hu Qulian, and my junior brother's name is Qin Banlan. ”
Xue Jiuming, who was standing on the side, snorted coldly and sneered: "Your master really knows how to choose a name." It is necessary to name it with medicinal materials, I think you two have a black skin and a yellow skin, which should be called 'Hu Hei Chou' and 'Qin Dihuang'. ”
Xue Jiuming saw that Qin Ban's blue forehead had burst into muscles, so he felt even more interesting: "What? Do you think 'black ugly' and 'rehmannia' are too straightforward? How about replacing it with 'Hu Wutou' and 'Qin Chenpi'? ”
Qin Banlan saw that Xue Jiuming's face was good, his skin was white and his bones were straight, and he didn't know what to scold for a while, so he had to force himself and said, "Is your own name too ugly to reveal it?" Your Shu country's surname is 'Wu', so simply call you 'tortoise shell'! ”
Xue Fan couldn't help laughing, but Xue Jiuming didn't care, he suddenly took the prescription in Qin Banlan's hand, and said in disgust: "Qin Chenpi, don't just care about playing tricks." If we can't prescribe a decent prescription, we will all die here sooner or later. ”
While everyone was talking, Liu Ying had already written with a pen and paper on the case: "I have read the fragment of the "Book of Epidemics" in the next place, and I remember that there is a cloud at the beginning - those who treat the epidemic, one must not be infected with the epidemic, the second is not to disperse the epidemic, the third is not to make the wrong medicine stone, and the fourth is not to be in a hurry for utilitarianism. I take the liberty to come here today and hope to work with you gentlemen to cure this epidemic. ”
