Their township health center, in the northeast of their village, is about five or six miles away from their village, and when it was first liberated, it was under the jurisdiction of Ji County, which is now renamed Weihui City, which is a county-level city in our Xinxiang City. In the past two years, I heard that the doctors and nurses in their health center could not pay their salaries, and there was a lot of uproar.

At that time, there were only three or four people in the health center, one consultation room, and two or three wards. The house was divided into the land by the local tyrants, from the hands of the "local tyrants and inferior gentry", the doctor was a health propagandist transferred from the city, barely knew a little bit of medical skills, the main task of the health center at that time was not to treat diseases, but to publicize health knowledge among the masses, and they were talking about it, in addition to taking an official tone, the level was far from those barefoot men in the village, if you don't believe it, you can go to those township-level health centers to ask, their first president, basically eight out of ten directors do not understand medical skills.

Old man Xue and his wife drove a donkey cart and carried Xinyangzi to the township health center. As mentioned earlier, the house of the health center is divided from the "local tyrants and inferior gentry", and at first glance it looks like a quadrangle, a large courtyard, a hall house, a few companion rooms, the hall house has been converted into a diagnosis and treatment room, a few companion rooms have been converted into wards, and there was originally a corridor and gate, but in order to be closer to the masses, the corridor and gate have been demolished and become an open one, and the situation in the courtyard can be seen from afar.

After coming to the health center, Old Man Xue first went to the diagnosis and treatment room to say hello to the doctors inside, and then took Xin Yangzi into Xue Laosi's ward.

In the No. 1 ward, there were four or five beds in the ward, and Xue Lao Si lay one, and at that time, people in our area were still very unfamiliar with the words "injection" and "hospitalization".

In this case, Xue Laosi certainly won't lie down honestly on the hospital bed. When Xinyangzi entered the ward, Xue Laosi had thick hemp rope tied to his hands and feet, and the other end of the hemp rope was tied to the bed legs, and the whole person was tied to the hospital bed with his back facing the sky in a "big" shape.

At the bedside, there was still a young woman sitting, Xue Laosi's age was only twenty-one or twelve years old, this woman was about the same age as him, and the woman was still holding a child in her arms.

Old man Xue hurriedly introduced Xinyangzi that this was his youngest son's daughter-in-law. Xin Yangzi glanced at the young woman, her appearance was ordinary, her face was sad, and then she looked at the child in her arms, like a girl, about two years old, wearing a small plaid rice dress with a placket on the back, a small round face, big eyes, and a small pigtail like a cannon twist on her head, quite cute, she seemed to understand that her father was sick, and she was timid in her mother's arms, not crying or making trouble.

After a brief acquaintance between the two parties, Xin Yangzi turned around and walked to the door of the ward, looked outside cautiously, and saw that no doctor was coming here, so he told Old Man Xue to stand at the door and watch the wind, and he walked to Xue Laosi's hospital bed and showed Xue Laosi.

At this time, Xue Laosi, his face was dark red, and he looked demented, and it was estimated that the doctors here in the health center were not lightly tossed, at this time he was lying motionless on the bed with his head tilted, and he looked like a dead man, and when he looked closely, he was still drooling from the corners of his mouth, and his body bones were thinner than more than a month ago, and it was estimated that he had not eaten much seriously since he hit the evil spirit.

At this time, Xue Laosi seemed to notice that Xin Yangzi was looking at him, and actually turned his face slowly, Xin Yangzi had a pair of eyes with him, and suddenly took a cool breath, and saw that Xue Laosi's eyes had turned into ginger yellow, and his pupils had narrowed into a slit, standing upright, standing in the middle of the eye beads like a cat's eye, and his face was paralyzed, which was very scary.

Seeing this, Xin Yangzi frowned.

Old man Xue came over to the door at this time, and said to Xin Yangzi in a low voice: "The doctor in the health center said that my child is poisoned. ”

When Xin Yangzi heard this, he turned around and asked Old Man Xue: "Did the doctor say that he was poisoned?" ”

Old man Xue was stunned, thought for a while, and said in a daze: "It seems to be something...... Virus, Taoist, what is a virus? ”

Xin Yangzi didn't know what a "virus" was, shook his head, and said, "This son is not poisoned, but an evil spirit." ”

Old man Xue nodded with a bitter face, and said: "I look like I'm running into an evil spirit, how can a good person slip out of the ground like a snake, Dao Chief, I only have such a son left, you have to think of a way for me." As he spoke, Old Man Xue looked at the woman holding the child next to him, and said, "If my youngest son doesn't have a good one, look at my family, this is ...... This ......"

Xin Yangzi sighed lightly, he understood what Old Man Xue meant by his unfinished words, if this little son is gone, except for the old couple, the family will all become orphans and widows, how can they live in the future?

Xin Yangzi thought about it and said: "Master Xue, according to the poor road, it is better to take your son home first, and when you get home, the poor road will do a magic service to drive away evil spirits for him, if the law is not good, the poor road will invite a master to come over." ”

As soon as Old Man Xue heard Xin Yangzi's words, he immediately made it difficult, why, because at that time, it didn't cost money to go to the health center to see a doctor, but when it came to discharge, the family couldn't be the master, and the doctor had the final say. In the case of Xue Laosi, in the words of those doctors, it is an extremely rare "disease", and there may be some unknown virus on his body, and it will be contagious if he is not good, how can he be easily let go.

When he came down the mountain, Old Man Xue told Xinyangzi that he would go home and find a way, and then come to Xinyangzi after getting his youngest son out of the health center.

Speaking of Old Man Xue, he left Huanghuadong and returned home, thinking about it, and his wife and son, what should I do? How can you get your son out of the health center? If you directly tell those doctors to be discharged, they will not agree, and they will be criticized and educated.

His wife said, "Otherwise, don't tell the head of the health center, and go to the health center to carry the child out without squeaking." ”

When Old Man Xue heard this, he hesitated, "If you catch this, it will be troublesome......

His wife said, "It's better than our children dying in it, they have been in for more than a month, and the disease will be cured, you can see how thin our children will be." As he spoke, his wife's tears fell, and her voice was hoarse, "Dad, let's only have this one ......left."

Old man Xue's heart was sour, and he bit his teeth, "Sensei! ”

In the afternoon of the same day, Old Man Xue went to his daughter's house, and his daughter had already known about Xue Laosi, and she was also in a hurry, so Old Man Xue said what his old couple meant, and his daughter-in-law nodded and agreed.

That night, Old Man Xue drove the donkey cart to the vicinity of the health center, and his daughter-in-law and son-in-law got down the donkey cart and quietly entered Xue Laosi's ward. The two of them first blocked Xue Laosi's mouth, then tied Xue Laosi's hands and feet, and stole Xue Laosi out of the health center, and Xue Laosi drove the donkey cart to pull Xue Laosi home.

Early the next morning, Old Man Xue drove the donkey cart up the mountain to find Xinyangzi. When Xin Yangzi heard this, he went to the health center in the middle of the night to steal people out, if the heads of the hospital knew, it would be terrible, besides, if the patient number was lost, the health center would definitely look around, and he would definitely go to the house to find it, if he happened to be doing things at the old man's house at this time, and bumped into those people, the trouble would be even greater.

After thinking about it several times, Xin Yangzi didn't dare to take this risk, and told Old Man Xue to hide Xue Laosi first, don't let the people in the health center find it, and wait until the evening, pull it to the mountain with a donkey cart, and do things for him on the mountain. Xinyangzi's eyes are not good, night blindness, if you go to Old Man Xue's house at night to do things, not to mention the big movement, but also to make the yard brightly lit, the neighbors on the left and right see that there is light in the yard, poke their heads to take a look, what should I do? This is no longer the other time.

Old man Xue listened to Xinyangzi's words and went home, and as soon as he hid Xue Laosi in the sweet potato cellar, the people from the health center entered the door, and they told Old Man Xue that Xue Laosi untied the rope and ran away by himself in the middle of the night last night, do you see if he ran home.

Old man Xue and her wife, as well as Xue Laosi's daughter-in-law, pretended to be quite similar, and when they heard this, they pulled several doctors to ask them to compensate their sons and husbands, and made several doctors leave Old Man Xue's house in disgrace.

In the evening, Xin Yangzi prepared the objects for the practice in advance, and Old Man Xue took advantage of the night to take his daughter, son-in-law and daughter-in-law to take Xue Lao Si to the mountain.

The rituals done by Xin Yangzi are the kind of rituals of authentic Taoism, such as charms, inscriptions, tokens, and peachwood swords. I won't say more about the specifics, because this is not our family's things, and besides, I don't know much about Taoist things.

The book says briefly. Xin Yangzi tossed for more than three hours on the platform of the main hall on the top of the Huanghua Cave, and finally completed the ritual, after completion, Xue Laosi foamed at the mouth and fainted, Xin Yangzi breathed a sigh of relief when he saw this, it seems that the exorcism magic he learned from the master is still effective.

Then he instructed his apprentice to carry Xue Laosi into the right wing, and Xue Laotou and his family guarded Xue Laosi by the bedside all night.

Early the next morning, Xue Laosi woke up and was able to recognize people, seeing that Old Man Xue could call his father, and seeing Old Man Xue's daughter calling Sister, but, in general, his mind was not sober, it was like drinking too much, he was in a daze, as long as he ignored him, he kept sitting stupidly, not eating or talking.

Xin Yangzi showed him and said that this was like a lost soul, maybe the exorcism ritual drove away the thing on his body, but a few souls on his body did not come back.

So, Xinyangzi did the magic of summoning spirits for Xue Laosi, which is also the Taoist method of summoning spirits, setting up an incense case, inviting the ancestor master, and then sending a letter to burn yellow paper, asking the five parties A and B Zhenjun to escort Xue Laosi's soul back.

After the ritual was done, what kind of god A and B really sent the soul over, but it directly caused Xue Laosi to become a sissy, walking squirming, speaking softly, and from time to time he opened his voice and sang one or two sentences of drama, that is, Henan Bangzi, the predecessor of Henan Opera.

This is nothing, mainly because the drama is too much to cry and laugh, Xin Yangzi who sings looks helpless, and the old man Xue who sings sits on the ground sighing and patting his head, Xue Laosi sings the "Twelve Widows Expedition to the West" in "Yang Jiajiang......

Why is it so appropriate?
