When the ox cart in front of us came to the medical hall, the sun was already high and it seemed to be almost noon. At this time, there was no one in the medical hall, and a few people helped carry people into the medical hall, and only one doctor in the medical hall rushed to see them when he saw them.

Originally, the people had already sent them and they could leave, but thinking that they were also fate, they were ready to stay and see the results. So a group of six people plus Xiaobao and seven people looked at the doctor, and the doctor didn't say much and looked at it first, but when he saw that the person had already been bandaged, he looked at them and asked, "What's going on?" ”

Perhaps after a certain period of time, Zhang had almost recovered and said: "Doctor, this is my son, he was injured when he went up the mountain to hunt, and the doctor in our village said that he couldn't cure it and let us send it to the hospital, these were all paid by the village doctor before." The village chief on one side also chimed in, saying, "Yes, that's right." Then the doctor asked, "When did you get hurt?" "I came back in the middle of the night last night." Zhang replied again.

In this way, the two of them talked one by one, and then the doctor took apart the cotton cloth wrapped around his body one by one, looked at the wounds on his body, and then checked his pulse. Finally, he said: "This is too badly injured, it's really unexpected that such a serious injury can be delayed for so long." I'm afraid I can't see this injury well, it's really too serious. With that, the doctor looked at them and shook his head.

The ancestors and grandchildren of the Zhang family were almost desperate when they heard this, and the Zhang family quickly stepped forward and grabbed the doctor's clothes and cried and said, "Doctor, is there really no way?" Doctor, I beg you, I only have this one son, how can I live without him. Doctor, please, you think of a way, please, please, please, I'll kowtow to you. As he spoke, he knelt on the ground and kowtowed to the doctor, kowtowed twice, as if he remembered something, and grabbed Xiaobao and said, "Bao, come and kowtow to the doctor, and beg him to save your father." When Xiaobao heard this, he immediately knelt on the ground with her and kowtowed to the doctor, kowtowing and saying, "Doctor, please, save my father, please......"

Seeing such a situation, the people present were a little sad, especially Yang Xue, she was a kind person herself, let alone seeing such a thing. So she said, "Doctor, is there really no other way?" You can figure it out, please. Then the village chief and the others also said, "Yes, doctor, you can think of a way." ”

After a while, the doctor said, "Maybe there is a person who can be optimistic, but I'm not sure if he can really be cured, and he is not in the county now." When Zhang heard this, he hurriedly asked, "Really, doctor?" Who is it? Let's go find it. The doctor looked at them and said, "It's my master, but his old man has gone out to collect medicine for the past two days, and he doesn't know where he went, but the time is these two days." In this case, I'll prescribe some medicine for him to hang first, and see if he can hold out until the master comes back. Maybe he shook his head when he wasn't sure what he could say. Yes...... That's a problem, doctor. ”

After half an hour like this, watching the time pass slowly, Yang Xue and they were ready to leave, and they were about to hurry up, and they were about to say goodbye to the village chief when they saw an old man who thought he was fifty or sixty years old came in at the door of the medical hall. The person who came was carrying a small basket with some herbs in it, and she vaguely felt that this might be the master that the doctor had said before. She looked at Li Bokang, as if she felt that she was looking at him, Li Bokang also looked at her, and then nodded at her as if he knew what she was thinking.

Sure enough, when the doctor saw the old man, he greeted him and shouted, "Master, you're back." By the way, master, there was a patient who came before, he was injured from hunting, and the injury was very serious, and I couldn't cure it, and they are still waiting here. Hearing this, the old man paused, and asked, "Where is the man?" "There." As he spoke, he looked at them and pointed out to the old man.

The old man looked in the direction he was pointing, then took off the basket and handed it to the doctor, and then turned to them. Because they had heard the previous doctor call him master just now, they didn't stop him and let him go directly to the couch. The old man looked at it for a while and asked the questions that the doctor had asked before, and after answering them one by one, Zhang asked: "Doctor, please save my son, please." "Alright, I'll take a look first." The old man said directly.

After a while, the old man said: "This can still be saved, I can cure it, but it's just ......" I was really happy to hear that I could save Zhang's family, but the two words behind it also made her a little apprehensive, and then asked: "Doctor, just what?" The old man also saw her expression, but still said, "It's just that it may cost a little more." As he spoke, he glanced at them again and explained: "Because the medicinal materials he needs are all good medicines, and he can't stop changing the prescription, so he ...... Can you afford it? ”

In fact, it's not that the old man doesn't believe them, it's just that from their clothes, it can be seen that the conditions in their home are not very good, and he is afraid that their family will not be able to support it. Hearing this, the Zhang family and the village chief thought that they would spend a lot of money, and they were still wondering if the money in their hands was enough, so no one spoke for a while. Seeing such a situation, Yang Xue asked, "How much does the doctor have to cost?" ”

Seeing that it was she who asked, the old man also took a special look, and by looking at the clothes, he could see that the two of them were not the same as the other people. But he still replied: "He will have to spend at least forty or fifty taels like this." "The Zhang family, who had just come back to their senses, were desperate when they heard that they were going to spend so much money, and now they only have a total of 25 taels of the land sold before, plus the remaining 2 taels of silver in the family before, they don't even have 30 taels in total, how can they afford it.

The old man looked at them silently and didn't speak, Zhang was really desperate, his eyes became dull, and he couldn't even cry. At this time, Xiaobao on the side stood up and asked the old man, "Doctor Grandpa, is it true that as long as you have this money, your father will definitely get better?" The old man was still very surprised when he saw that it was a seven or eight-year-old boy who told him, so he pretended to be a tiger and said, "Of course, I can't lie to you as a little hairy child." ”

The village chief on the side saw that the old man seemed to be angry, so he hurriedly apologized: "Doctor, I'm sorry, the child is not sensible, don't be angry with your boss." As he spoke, he made two gestures to the old man. When the old man heard the village chief's words, he knew that he was scared, so he quickly put down his face and said, "It's okay, it's okay, I'm just teasing him." But what I'm saying is true, as long as you have money, this person will be fine. When he said that, he straightened his face.

After knowing that he was not really angry, Xiaobao said again: "Then can the old man prescribe some cheaper medicine?" My family doesn't have that much money, everything that can be sold at home has been sold, and even the land has been sold for a total of only more than 20 taels, please. After finishing speaking, he went to his grandmother and showed the old man the burden containing the money.
