Chapter 3: The Mulian Order (I)
Mrs. Wen stayed with Li Qing for one night, and only sent someone to send her back the next afternoon. Prime Minister Wen's post had already been delivered, Li Yunsheng took the post, overjoyed, and early the next morning, he personally arranged Li Qing's luggage and vehicle, and took someone to send Li Qing to Wenfu early in the morning.
A group of dozens of cars walked slowly, and before leaving the city gate, Mama Zheng got out of the car according to Li Qing's instructions and walked back.
The group did not arrive at Lancui Courtyard until after noon.
Shen Zheng, woke up from a nap, Wen Qingbo was escorted by his mother Mrs. Liu to Luohan Hall to listen to the scriptures, Li Qing gave Mrs. Liu, and wanted to go to Qixia Hall to visit Mrs. Zhiran, Mrs. Liu knew that she was close to Mrs. Shi, and asked her feet with concern, and after knowing that it was okay, she arranged for a few safe mothers-in-law to carry a small bamboo sedan chair to send her up.
Qixia Hall is a place for women who come to seek medical treatment in Hangu Temple, and men who seek medical treatment go to Puji Hall.
Master Guangci, the abbot of Hangu Temple, was frowning, and slowly walked on the way to Qixia Hall with his head down.
He is the seventeenth abbot of Hangu Temple, since Master Mulian, the abbot of the temple has been served by the person with the highest medical skills, if the person with the highest medical skills does not be the abbot, he must be the protector of the Dharma, and the abbot with the protector can only be the secular abbot. Although no one will know, he understands that since yesterday, he has been a secular abbot! King Ping's illness seems simple, but he can't diagnose the cause! But King Ping came with the fifth Lotus Decree that was only passed down in the mouths of the abbots of the past dynasties!
That Mulian Order! Master Guangci's footsteps paused slightly, and his brows were twisted together again, the story of the four Wooden Lotus Orders has long been known to everyone, and they all say that if they hold the Wooden Lotus Order, the King of Hades will not accept it, in fact, the Wooden Lotus Order is just a wooden brand, but it represents the promise of Master Mulus, and it is also the promise of Hangu Temple. If Master Mulian is here, there is naturally no disease that cannot be cured, but if he can't diagnose the cause of King Ping, he will naturally not be able to take this Mulian order, and Hangu Temple will be destroyed in his own hands for hundreds of years!?
I can only let the green girl come to see, that year, the stick that jumped out, now it seems that this drink is actually arranged by the Bodhisattva.
In the apse of Qixia Palace, the first Zhiran master of Qixia Hall brewed a cup of Meishan tea and handed it to Master Guangci, Master Guangci took the tea and drank a few sips before he spoke:
"Find someone to carry a letter, let the young girl come to the temple, the sooner the better."
"Uncle Shi really has all his wishes come true! The green girl accompanied Miss Wen to the courtyard to avoid Tai Sui, and she was about to arrive at Qixia Hall at this time. ”
Mrs. Zhiran replied with a smile, what could make Uncle Shi worry like this? How many years have I not seen Uncle Shi like this? Twenty years? Thirty years? Master Guangci nodded, it was so coincidental, it seemed that everything was arranged by the Bodhisattva. There was a faint smile on the master's face, he drank all the tea in the cup, and seeing that his brows stretched a little, Zhiran Shitai secretly breathed a sigh of relief, refilled him with water, and continued:
"There are not many people from Qixia Hall today, and there is no one who wants to work for Uncle Shi."
Master Guangci nodded and said:
"Since you're here, let's see a few patients. The young girl came, took her to the consultation room, and I had something to say to her. ”
Master Zhiran was a little surprised, Uncle Shi was a little strange today, opened his mouth, and saw that Master Guangci only lowered his head to drink tea, so he didn't make a sound, and when Master Guangci finished drinking the cup of tea, he accompanied him to the next consultation room.
After a few quarters of an hour, a green cloth two people carried a small bamboo sedan chair and stopped in front of the Qixia Palace, Qiuyue stepped forward to open the sedan curtain easily, Li Qing wore a hat, held the hand of the glass out of the sedan chair, and entered the Qixia Hall briskly and calmly.
The doctor and nun on duty in the hall saw Li Qing and his party come in, and stepped forward with a smile and put his hands together and gave a half-salute and said:
"The young girl is here! Mrs. Shi is in the consultation room, and Master Guangci is also there. ”
Li Qing stopped and asked with a smile:
"How long has it been since the master? He's earlier than usual today. ”
"I've just arrived in the middle of the hour, and I've seen a few patients, and I've just been free at this time, so let's go in, young girl."
Li Qing nodded and went to the large consultation room at the back of the hall.
In the large consultation room, Master Guangci was sitting alone with his eyes down, and when he saw Li Qing coming in, his eyes were full of smiles, Li Qing saw the salute, and Liuli put the half-used silver-white cocoon silk cushion in his arms on the round stool, and waited for Li Qing to sit down, and retreated outside with Qiuyue.
Master Guangci smiled gently, looked Li Qing up and down, and asked with concern:
"Young girl, how are you doing these days?"
Li Qing narrowed his eyes, what was the use of talking to the old monk? It made him worried, and replied with a smile:
"Good! It's pretty much what I thought. ”
Master Guangci sighed slightly, this girl was too proud, I don't know if I can endure it for a while, and comforted:
"Girl, and be patient."
"Old monk, I'm fine, you...... Something? Waiting for me? ”
Master Guangci nodded, that Mulus Order! His brows furrowed, and he said:
"King Ping of the Han Land came to seek medical treatment, and judging from the pulse, time was running out. I couldn't figure out why. ”
Li Qing smiled, frowning slightly, the old monk should know that she had not seen patients for a long time, why......
"You want me to show him?"
Master Guangci nodded, and Li Qing simply refused:
"Don't look! That Ping Wang Wen Tao is strategic, scheming, and has many talents, he is not a good person, he conceals his identity and heals, others say that he is not easy! I don't get into such trouble!
Old monk, I just want to live comfortably, I'm a little girl, just know a little bit about medical skills, but if this medical skills are better than yours, then don't want to live freely in this life! Maybe even your life will be gone! ”
When she first studied medicine, she still had the idea of having a skill to survive, and slowly learned that in this world, a woman's skill has nothing to do with medical skills, and this medical skill is useless to her life! Moreover, unless she is a monk and goes to this Qixia Hall to be accompanied by Yuejing, otherwise, if it is known that her medical skills are higher than that of Master Guangci, it will be like a three-year-old doll walking in the downtown with a gold ingot, and even people will have to be robbed! She's in trouble enough to give her a headache now, and she doesn't want to give herself any more trouble!
Master Guangci smiled bitterly and said:
"Girl, I'm afraid I can't stop watching it this time! You know about the Mulus Order, this last one, I think it has long been lost, but I didn't expect that in the hands of the Han Di Lin family, King Ping came with this Mulus Order. ”
It turned out to be Mulian Ling! Li Qing was surprised and a little relieved, the master had always cherished her, and without the Mulian Order, he would definitely not let her take such a risk!
Mulian Ling, that Mulian master, that quotation, her heart is soft, and she is also warm, her business, she can't care about it anyway, he said that he will play for another two years, and he will go back, will he go back? How did you get back? She had rummaged through Tianyi Pavilion and found no clues.
Well, prepare in advance, and if you are careful, you may not be able to hide it! Thinking of this, her heart moved slightly,
"Old monk, King Ping must have sent someone to follow you, ...... you?"
Master Guangci's brows furrowed,
"I've thought of this too, I've treated a few patients just now, and it's not abrupt to see you again. If you are willing to heal, it is best to put it in the Yuehua Pavilion, where the surroundings are wide and sparse, and there is a secret passage in the back hall that leads to the Wutong Temple. ”
Li Qing thought about it carefully, but it was appropriate, and nodded,
"Well, don't tell King Ping beforehand, it's best to bring it directly after entering the mountain gate. Wait for me to leave, and then let him go.
However, you can't cure the disease, maybe I can't cure it, I can only do my best, old monk, don't hope too much. ”
Speaking of this, Li Qing's eyes rolled and he smiled softly,
"In case he is cured, Hangu Temple will be able to take back this Lotus Order, and the old monk will always say, I want ten hundred-year-old red fruits!" No counteroffer! ”
Master Guangci also laughed,
"Girl, there are only seventeen red fruits that are more than 100 years old in the temple, ten are too many, two hundred years old red fruits, and the rest are fifty years old."
Li Qing's eyes were full of joy, she knew that there was no surplus wealth in the temple, only some precious medicine villages were stored in preparation for saving people, it was rare for the old monk to be so generous, ten red fruits, if sold well, they could be sold for almost 20,000 taels of silver, with these silver coins, and then find a candidate, she could get married quickly!
Early the next morning, a small green cloth sedan chair was carried to His Excellency Yuehua, and the steward and a small servant waited for King Ping to enter the pavilion, and the rest retreated far away.
Master Guangci stood smiling at the door of the Yuehua Pavilion and led the prince into the pavilion.
The inside of the Yuehua Pavilion is not big, there is a white cotton curtain hanging in the middle, the Yuehua Pavilion is divided into two from the middle, where King Ping and Master Guangci stand in front, there is an elm armchair in the place where the curtain is leaning, and behind the curtain, nothing can be seen.
The steward carefully helped the prince to sit down, Master Guangci slightly opened a crack in the middle of the curtain that just contained an arm, King Ping stretched out his hand, a hand on the other side of the curtain caught his hand, and gently placed it on the pillow, and then a few slightly cool fingers were placed on the pulse, and after a while, he was motioned to change his hand.
After half a stick of incense, after diagnosing the pulse, there was a knock on the side of the curtain on the wooden fish, Master Guangci put his hand into the crack, took a small white porcelain cup, and handed it to the servant servant, and said to King Ping with a smile:
"Donor, Mr. Mu, please give me three drops of blood so that we can identify the cause."
The little guy knelt on the ground and raised the cup in front of King Ping, who bit his fingers with his teeth and squeezed out a few drops of blood and dripped them into the cup.
The little guy carefully passed the cup through the ripp.
Qiu Yue took it and put it on the high table in front of Li Qing, Li Qing frowned and pouted, she hated touching this kind of thing the most, but she had to helplessly stretch out her index finger, stain it with blood from the cup, twist it with her thumb, put it under her nose and sniffed it carefully, sure enough, there was a fishy smell, Qiu Yue took the cup far away, Miss hates these dirty things the most, alas, Miss has a habit of cleanliness! Hurriedly handed a small basin with brown soup to Li Qing, Li Qing put two fingers in it and washed it, Qiu Yue turned around and put it down, and stepped forward with a small basin with hot water, Li Qing washed his hands carefully, felt much better, and Fang breathed a sigh of relief.
This is poisoned, Li Qing was stunned for a while, Fang picked up the pen, wrote a few lines on the paper, folded it slightly, Qiu Yue knocked the wooden fish, and handed the note out of the crack.
Master Guangci took the note, opened it, and asked:
"Donor, Mr. Mu asked you if you have practiced a kind of innate true qi that is most masculine and strong, and you have already achieved it?"
King Ping was surprised, this Mr. Mu has been making a mystery for a long time, but he seems to have some real skills.
"Sir, clever."
"Since the illness, this true qi has become weaker and weaker, and it is difficult to function, if you exercise, then the meridians, muscles, and bones around the body will be painful?"
"Exactly."
King Ping replied solemnly, a glimmer of light flashed in his eyes, this Mr. Mu is a little extraordinary, maybe, he really shouldn't die!
Li Qing heard it in the curtain, and only felt a little headache, this Mulus Order is really not easy to accept, if it causes a big trouble this time, what should I do?
