Chapter 304: The Cure for Ignorance
"I dragged the person who was with me, desperately ran towards the front yard, shouting as I ran, and when we shouted all the long workers in front of us, everyone gathered together, and then walked boldly into the back yard, this time we all lit lanterns, and soon saw the long workers who were scared to death, only to see that the long workers' neck was bitten off. The thing that bit off his neck should not have gone far, because the neck was still dripping blood, everyone was completely scared, carrying the long-term worker who was bitten to death, and ran towards the village, shouting while running, several of us shouted without life, and the whole village came out, I put the person who bit him to death in an open space, and told the story of the incident, and everyone was shocked.
At this time, the old master of the village stood up and said: "There are demons in troubled times, and as soon as this bloodthirsty ghost ape comes out, I am afraid that the world will be destroyed by war again." ”
Then the old master said that the vamphible ape is ferocious, let us all move away and stay away from this place of right and wrong, otherwise the people around us will be eaten by the vamphible ape one by one. ”
I said, "Who is this old master?" ”
Han Laosan said: "This old master is a talented man in the former Qing Dynasty, he has read books all his life and has an old nose, he is a wise man in our village, he knows astronomy and geography, and knows how to farm in the middle." ”
I said, "Where is this old master now?" ”
Han Laosan said: "Now in the pine slope four miles away, we are afraid that the vampthirsty ghost ape will eat people, the whole village has been temporarily moved to the pine slope, we asked the old master when and what method to deal with the vampthirsty ape, the old master said: As soon as the punishment of the vamphible ape comes, someone will deal with the vamphible ape." ”
After Han Laosan finished speaking, I said, "In this way, you take me to meet the old master, and I want to ask him for advice on how to deal with the vampthirsty ghost ape." ”
Han Laosan said: "Okay, I think the old master must know how to deal with the bloodthirsty ghost ape." ”
After speaking, Han Laosan got up and said, "Everyone wait here first, I will go to the old master with the Taoist chief, and everyone will wait together, so courageous." ”
When those people in the village heard this, they were scared at that time, and said what should they do if we left, and at this time Zhong Dabiao said: "My second brother followed Han Laosan, and my fourth brother and I are waiting here." ”
As soon as Zhong Dabiao said this, everyone agreed, Zhong Dabiao turned to Mao Qinglian and Luo Xihan at this time and said: "Third brother and fourth brother, you can't help here, just follow the second brother, there are many people and many ways." ”
When they heard this, they all nodded hurriedly, and the three of us got into the carriage, and then under the leadership of Han Laosan, they went towards the pine slope he said, and on the way we learned that Han Laosan wanted to come back to get things during the day, and the people on the pine slope were in a hurry to leave home, and many things were not brought out. As for the two black and white impermanence, it was the old master's idea, so that it could attract people's attention.
As our carriage walked forward, a large pine forest appeared in front of us, and suddenly we heard the heart-rending cries of children, and by this time we could already see a lot of people, people coming and going, and many grass huts were set up in the woods. We wondered in our hearts, if it was a gloomy cemetery, we might encounter infant spirits, but this was broad daylight, how could people come and go around in broad daylight, how could there be ghosts in broad daylight, at this time Luo Xihan said: "Why is this child crying so madly?" We're not going to see ghosts, are we? “
Han Laosan said: "Don't be afraid, this is not a ghost, it must be the god's mother-in-law who is using a tweezer nest to dispel the child's illness and sweat." ”
Han Lao Sanyi said I understand, in our Shandong, the staple food is pancakes, this pancakes, are done on the pancakes, now it is rare, but the original pancakes, that is a new daughter-in-law necessary skills, put an iron pancake on the ground, three legs with bricks on the pad, and then use wheat to burn underneath, with noodles or grains of paste on the top, just like this pancake comes out, pancakes are shelf-stable, deeply loved by everyone.
As for the treatment of diseases with the tweezers' nests, this is our local method in the era of lack of clothes and medicine, burned for a long time, the tweezers' nests have already been hot, on the hot soil, splash a few scoops of water, then the water vapor will rise, then quickly spread the wheat stalks, the patients regardless of three winters and six summers, are lying on the wheat stalks, covered with a quilt to sweat there, by sweating to drive out the disease, in fact, this is not unreasonable, and later this technique was learned by the sauna, until it is still popular as seen.
However, this also has a lot of drawbacks, that is, it only has an effect on wind and cold and the like, because it is too hot, there are many people who lack water, so they die, a new daughter-in-law on our village, and the mother-in-law does not agree, once sick, it is steamed to death by the mother-in-law, that era is not a beautiful era for daughter-in-law, mother-in-law is in charge, evil mother-in-law is everywhere, so there is a saying that is good, a thousand years of daughter-in-law boiled into a mother-in-law, in fact, our era, compared to the old society, has been very good.
Our carriage came to a flat field, where there were several people around, and in the middle of it was spread out a wheat sheat, steaming hot, and on the wheat sheath there was a child of four or five years old, wrapped in a quilt, rolling around on the wheat sheat, and as he rolled, he cried heartbreakingly. I saw that the child, his face was like a red cloth, drenched in sweat, and next to him was a fierce-looking old woman, who was desperately pressing the child, and there were a few people next to him, with eager eyes in their eyes, and it seemed that they should be the parents of the child.
I was watching, when Mao Qinglian jumped down from the carriage and said, "You guys are about to release the child, the child will die if he continues like this." ”
As soon as I saw the water Qinglian jumping, I jumped down with it, and before I could reach Mai Sui, I felt a wave of heat. When the old lady heard Mao Qinglian say this, her eyes glared at Mao Qinglian and said, "I'm treating my grandson, what are you talking about?" ”
Mao Qinglian said: "No, hurry up and take the quilt away from the child, if it continues like this, the child will die." ”
The old lady said: "Nonsense, this method of curing diseases, but it has been passed down by our ancestors, and we treat our diseases in this way." ”
As soon as the old lady saw that the old lady was unreasonable, she hurriedly went up and pulled the quilt, and the old lady saw that she grabbed the quilt, and said: "If you don't let me treat my grandson, I'll fight for you." ”
As he spoke, he grabbed Mao Qinglian, how could I let her catch Mao Qinglian, and see her pounce, I flew up and kicked the old lady to the ground, this kick I was afraid of hurting the old woman, I didn't use force at all, the old woman sat on the ground and cried, just cried a few times, quickly stood up and slapped her buttocks, maybe the ground was too hot and hot.
After the old lady stood up, she cried and shouted for the people next to her to beat us, and then Han Laosan said: "Don't be presumptuous, the Taoist and Mr. are invited to deal with the bloodthirsty ghost ape, you must not be rude." ”
When the old lady heard this, she stopped crying, looked at us and said, "Are you really here to subdue the vampthirsty ape?" ”
I nodded, and at this time, Mao Qinglian said to those people: "The child is burning badly and is seriously dehydrated, you should quickly get some water and add some salt to the water." ”
At this time, I remembered that Mao Qinglian was saving the child, only to see the child at this time, his face was sweaty like oil, his voice was low, his eyes were closed, I looked at the child and said, "Does this child matter?" ”|
Mao Qinglian looked at me anxiously and said, "This child is now in yin qi prostration and needs first aid, by the way, I have Zixue Dan in my bag, you bring my bag." ”
Zixuedan was the first-aid opening medicine at that time, which was the same as the bezoar pill and Zhibaodan, which had the effect of clearing heat and detoxifying, and relieving spasmodics. Indications for fever. High fever and irritability, faint speech, convulsions, rash vomiting, urine red constipation. It was a must-have thing at that time, Luo Xihan took the burden, Qinglian asked Luo Xihan to open the burden and take out a bottle, the bottle was taught Zixue Dan, such an elixir was very precious at that time, and it was generally not given to others casually.
At this time, the water came, Mao Qinglian took out a purple snow pill, melted it in the water, slowly poured it into the child, and then gave the child some water, and asked me to help put the child under the shade of the tree and said: "You give the child more water here, by the way, make a cloth and put it on the forehead, and the child's fever will soon go down." ”
The child's family are all thankful for Qinglian, I see that the child's face is slowly getting better, the old lady is not fierce at this time, I thank you vigorously, I ignored the old lady, and said to Han Laosan: "Third brother, let's go to the old master and ask how to deal with that bloodthirsty ghost ape." ”
