Chapter 54: Healing
"Girl, you're awake at last! It's really a blessing and a great life. "A burly, red-faced man grinned in surprise when he heard the sound of the door opening, looked up to me, and said in surprise.
I held on to the frame of the 'door', barely holding my body, and in front of me was a neat farmhouse fence yard, in which a simple and neat 'woman' and the man were standing. The woman was holding a baby in her arms and shaking it.
"Sister-in-law, did you save me?" I asked with an effort to smile.
"Yesterday, when my eldest baby ran back from the river beach to ask me for dry food, and when I sent it to you, I learned that you fainted in the ground, and it was my family who carried you back. It's just a pity that we won't treat the wound, and there is only one Tulangzhong nearby, only some recipes for headaches and brain fever, so we can only grab some Panax notoginseng powder to stop the bleeding for you first. The woman said with a little guilt.
I hurriedly shook my head: "Thank you sister-in-law for saving my life, you take care of me like this, I can't get enough 'excitement'." ”
While coaxing the child in her arms, the sister-in-law asked a little shyly: "Are you hungry, I'll go and cook you something to eat, but there is no good food at home." ”
I haven't had a tooth in more than a day, so I should have been hungry a long time ago. Because of the high fever, there is no hunger, just a little lack of water.
"Sister-in-law, don't be polite, I'm also a child of a poor family, and I'm used to eating coarse tea and light rice." I glanced at the baby in her arms: "Sister-in-law, the child seems to be a little uncomfortable, can you let me take a look?" ”
The sister-in-law was a little anxious when she heard this: "I've had a high fever for three or four days, how many local methods have been used, and the 'medicine' has also been fed, but it's not good, and now I can't cry." ”
After saying that, the tears couldn't help but fall "popping".
I took two steps forward, and the child in my arms had a red face, a dry mouth and lips, a weak state, and a hot tentacle. I gently pulled the child's little arm out of the quilt, and the pulse was already faintly visible, and I couldn't help but frown.
The sister-in-law looked at me hopefully: "Girl, are you a doctor?" ”
I nodded, "A little bit of it." ”
The sister-in-law and the eldest brother behind him looked at each other in surprise, and the eldest brother folded his hands and prayed repeatedly: "If there is really a good retribution, the girl must have been specially sent by the Buddha to save my child." ”
I carefully checked the child's pulse and facial symptoms, and said with great certainty: "Sister-in-law, your child is not an ordinary wind chill. ”
"Huh? So what's wrong with this kid? The eldest brother asked anxiously.
I groaned for a moment: "Sister-in-law, you untie the child's quilt, then squeeze a little 'milk' water in the palm of your hand, and rub it on the child's back." ”
The sister-in-law and the eldest brother were a little surprised, but they still did as I said. The eldest brother carefully took the child, unwrapped the quilt, and the sister-in-law turned her back shyly, opened the placket, squeezed out a little 'milk' water, put the child on her knees, and 'rubbed' back and forth on his tender back.
"Sister-in-law, you have a little more strength until your palms are hot."
The sister-in-law increased her strength suspiciously, and the child's faint cry became smaller, and it seemed that he was sleeping comfortably.
It seems that my guess was correct, and it was exactly the same as my diagnosis.
"Yikes! How so?! The sister-in-law turned her head in surprise, her face full of anxiety and worry.
"What's wrong?" The eldest brother hurried to the front and asked with concern.
"How can there be something black 'colored' out of the child's body, like hair." The sister-in-law came closer to see it and was surprised.
I don't need to come closer, I know what my sister-in-law said, and comforted me softly: "Sister-in-law, don't worry, the child is not suffering from any incurable disease, but just an ordinary pig 'hair' Dan, these black 'colored' things are all evil poisons accumulated in the child's body, and it is much better to be discharged from the body, and many old people know it." ”
The eldest brother and sister-in-law both breathed a sigh of relief: "Then what should I do next?" ”
"It's very simple, boil water with 'chicken', 'feather' or duck' 'feather', scrub the child's whole body, and pull out all the evil poison in the body, and it's fine."
"It's as simple as that?" The sister-in-law asked suspiciously: "Don't you need to take 'medicine'?" ”
"You stupid! Since this girl can see a 'door' way, the method she said will definitely work. The old Wang family in Tunzi just killed two 'chickens' yesterday for their birthday, and left the 'chickens' and 'feathers' to make dusters, and I went to find some back. You take care of this girl, and there are still injuries on her body. ”
After saying that, he hurried out and walked all the way.
"This quick temper!" The sister-in-law was relieved, smiled and said with great relief, and then turned her head to look at me: "Girl, wait a while, I will simmer you millet egg 'flower' soup on the stove." ”
"Sister-in-law!" I hurried to stop her.
"What's the matter, girl?"
I smiled embarrassedly, "Can you please boil a pot of boiling water?" ”
"Oh, if you're thirsty, there's hot water in the kettle." The sister-in-law said enthusiastically.
"No, I want to take care of the wounds on my body." I hastened to explain.
"My family lives in a remote area, and there is a lack of medical treatment and 'medicine', your injury, wait for your eldest brother to come back, borrow an ox cart, and take you to the town to find a doctor." The sister-in-law said worriedly.
I shook my head: "I'll just deal with this injury myself, don't bother my eldest brother and sister-in-law." It's just, sister-in-law, the clothes I changed ......"
The sister-in-law immediately understood: "I have changed your clothes for you and washed them, and all the things in them are placed on the edge of your 'bed' intact." ”
I hurriedly thanked my sister-in-law and went back to the room to check, the candle dragon order and the lore were there, and a few silver tickets were all dried, and the ink stains were smeared. The most fortunate thing is that the mouth of the knife 'medicine' bottle is tightly corked, and the 'medicine' powder inside is intact.
My sister-in-law brought me a bowl of millet egg 'flower' porridge and boiled hot water in the kitchen. I asked my sister-in-law for a piece of cotton cloth, and together with the dagger, put it in hot water and boiled it. Then take out the cotton cloth and dry it for later use.
There were barbs at the tip of the arrow, and I pulled it out recklessly, and it was bound to bleed profusely, and I couldn't stop it for a while. It is necessary to prepare in advance how best to stop the bleeding.
I burned my dagger in the fire, untied the blood-soaked cotton cloth, gritted my teeth, closed my eyes, and pulled out the broken arrow, and immediately blood gushed out. I quickly ironed the wound with a burning dagger, and I couldn't help but exhale in pain from the burning sensation of the heart. The cold sweat on his body suddenly burst out, and his whole body was as if he had just been fished out of the water, and his mouth full of silver teeth was almost crushed.
The sister-in-law who was burning the fire on the side was so frightened that she covered her eyes and didn't dare to look at it again.
I curled up for a long time before I gradually calmed down, and tried to pick up the bottle of 'medicine' next to me, but my fingertips trembled in pain, and I couldn't pick it up.
My sister-in-law approached me tremblingly and picked up the 'medicine' bottle: "Girl, let me come." ”
I stopped being reckless and closed my eyes with the roots of my teeth clenched.
The powder was poured on the wound, and the second wave of burning came back, but the pain was tiny compared to the burning of the dagger.
"Girl, you are really good, this pain is even a man who can't help it." My sister-in-law trembled her hands and carefully applied the 'medicine' powder to my wound, and then carefully bandaged it with a boiled cotton cloth, carefully with a worried face.
I let out a long sigh of relief, sweating profusely, so weak that I couldn't speak, and I could only barely pull out an ugly smile.
At my sister-in-law's house, it is not convenient to buy 'medicine', and I need to walk to the town seven or eight miles away. She found some common 'medicine' according to my recipe and boiled it for me, and then I fell into a dark slumber, and I don't know how long it was.
When I woke up again, my mind was clear and I was hungry. I knew that I was out of danger and safe and sound, but I was weak and needed to recuperate for a while.
My sister-in-law's baby has gone down from fever according to my method, and he no longer suffers day and night, and he sleeps sweetly after he is full. I was 'excited' by the life-saving grace of my eldest brother and sister-in-law, who were simple, but grateful to me for curing the child's illness and treating me like a guest.
The eldest of the sister-in-law's family is called Xiao Yong, the boy he saw in the sweet potato field on the river beach that day. After he knew that I knew both medical skills and literacy, he admired me very much, and often stuck to me and asked me to teach him to write.
One afternoon, he went out to collect hay, and after a moment he came back in a panic, broke into my house, and said breathlessly: "Sister, sister, just now there is a man with a portrait who is asking me, and the person on the portrait looks like you. ”
I was shocked: "What does that man look like?" How to dress up? ”
Xiao Yong even compared: "It's just an ordinary peasant man dressed up, and I can't see any difference." But when I saw him take out his portrait, a token fell out of his sleeve, and it was engraved with letters. ”
"What word? Did my sister teach you? ”
Xiao Yong shook his head: "I don't know, but I remember the strokes and can write them down." ”
After speaking, Xiao Yong squatted down, picked up a stone, and began to write on the ground one by one. Although the strokes are crooked and the writing is immature, I can still barely recognize the word "gold".
I'm a little curious, where is the token with the word "gold"? I've never heard of a ya' 'gate' or barracks that is a 'gold' token. Who is looking for me? It shouldn't be Tulin and insects, if the court is still not dead and still wants me, then it should be wearing official clothes, there is no need to dress up as an ordinary person. However, I have never heard of any army in Liangci holding a "gold" token.
Could it be that he is a member of the Bodhi Sect? Su Qingqing knew that the token in the emperor's hand was fake, so the people of the Bodhi Sect were searching for my whereabouts everywhere?
"Sister, is your family coming to you?" Xiao Yong asked me curiously.
I hurriedly shook my head: "No, Xiao Yong, did you tell them that my sister is here?" ”
Xiao Yong shook his head proudly: "They look 'quite fierce', like bad guys, so I didn't say it." And tell him that there is a village ahead of him, and let him go there and inquire. ”
We breathed a long sigh of relief, 'touched' and 'touched' Xiao Yong's head appreciatively, and said with emotion: "Thank you." ”
