Chapter 28 Calling the Soul
A few people opened the curtain one after the other and walked in, there was a bed in the room, a black and white wedding photo hung at the head of the bed, some rolls on the yellowed edge, a few books neatly placed on a writing desk, an inkstone, an open book with a pair of glasses, and the person next to the bed got up to say hello when someone came in.
"Teacher Liu has been sick for a few days?" Father Hu asked the man softly, as if he knew each other. As soon as Lu Jingxiu got closer, he realized that the person himself knew, wasn't that the doctor who was saving people by the river.
"Alas, I've been here for two days! It looks like a cold, but Uncle Liu still can't get rid of the fever, the man shook his head helplessly, and Lu Jingxiu stepped forward and said hello politely.
The man hurriedly stood up, walked over to Lu Jingxiu and looked at Lu Jingxiu for a long time: "Are you the one who woke up the village chief's baby?!" Lu Jingxiu was embarrassed and didn't respond. "Great!" the man said, his face turning cloudy. "I was about to tell the baby that I guess you will be cured when you come, I really didn't expect you to know each other!" he smiled and brushed his hair with his hand.
Go, Huzi's father hurriedly interrupted: "You have recognized the wrong person!
I couldn't admit my mistake, the doctor stood up again and confirmed, and patted his head with joy: "Yes! I remember that the baby is also called meditation!
A middle-aged man on the bed coughed a few times, although his appearance was approachable, his face was frowning, his face was pale and weak, the sun was scorching outside, and his body was still covered with a thick quilt.
Liu Mengying stood on the edge of the bed crying, Teacher Liu raised her hand and wiped it lightly, forced to smile, and saw that someone in the room was trying to lift her body to no avail, and closed her eyes tightly.
"Quick, what are you still rubbing!" The doctor urged and pushed Lu Jingxiu. Liu Mengying burst into tears and slowly stood up: "Meditation, do you really know how to heal?" Lu Jingxiu looked at her with a pear blossom with rain, and nodded distressedly: "Mengying, can you tell me why Teacher Liu got sick when he is so good?"
Liu Mengying wiped the corners of her eyes and recalled: "When I went home that day, I went to the field with my dad to pay tribute to my mother, and when I got home, my dad didn't know why he suddenly fell down, just got up and my dad smiled and said that it was okay, patted his body, who knew that he felt uncomfortable as soon as he came back, and then he couldn't get out of bed, so I hurriedly invited Uncle Hao", Liu Mengying paused, raised her head and endured not to let the tears fall. "Yes! Uncle Liu was still able to chat with me when I came, and I prescribed some cold medicine to him, but I didn't expect it to be so serious in just two days, the doctor surnamed Hao complained, and looked at Lu Jingxiu.
Lu Jingxiu didn't speak, stood in place and thought for a long time, walked directly to the bed with a raised brow, rested the back of his hand on Teacher Liu's forehead and stroked it, and then put his pulse: Huh?
Liu Mengying walked over, with tears on her face, and her eyes were red and swollen from crying: "If you can really cure my father, I am willing to follow you for the rest of my life!" Lu Jingxiu almost didn't stand firm, and smiled embarrassedly: It's better to stop acting, I'm afraid that Mengying will have to make a promise in person!
"I can try! It's just that my method is the local method at home, I don't know if it works! Baby, I think the method you used last time by the river was quite powerful! The doctor surnamed Hao interjected, and Lu Jingxiu looked at Liu Mengying with an embarrassed smile.
"As long as my dad can get better, I'm willing to do anything!" After speaking, he looked at Lu Jingxiu solemnly, and nodded seriously with his pink cheeks.
Okay! Lu Jingxiu agreed: "Quickly help me prepare a square table, find a pair of incense burners, three incense sticks, and a bowl and chopsticks!" Lu Jingxiu finished in one breath. Liu Mengying was a little puzzled: "Meditation, these don't seem to have anything to do with curing diseases... The doctor surnamed Hao hurriedly urged: "Mengying, this local method is amazing! You go and prepare!" Oh, Liu Mengying walked in with doubts.
"Meditation, are you sure?" Daddy Huzi quietly leaned over. "Don't worry, uncle!" Huzi's father whispered again: "It seems that our family is going to have a happy event"! Bared his teeth and snickered, Lu Jingxiu also smiled helplessly.
Liu Mengying hurriedly entered the house, carrying an incense burner in her arms, holding a bowl and pinching a chopstick and a few incense sticks. Lu Jingxiu took the things, and Liu Mengying hurriedly moved the books on the table to the side: "Jingxiu, is this table okay?"
Lu Jingxiu stood in the courtyard looking at the sun, and suddenly stomped his feet: "Uncle! Here! The two of them moved the table together. Lu Jingxiu swept the table a few times with his hand, and then asked again, "Mengying, which direction are you going?"
"Is it my mother's grave?"
"Well, go out and turn left and keep walking, and then turn right again and almost to the side", Liu Mengying replied with confusion after thinking.
After listening to Liu Mengying's words, Lu Jingxiu put the incense burner on the corner of the table in the southeast direction, lit three incense sticks and raised his eyebrows three times, and respectfully inserted them in the incense burner.
