Chapter Twenty-Three: Night Debate

Perhaps illness is a punishment, and almost all living beings get sick. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

"It's the third watch, and you still have an hour." This is a reminder from the female ghost.

I wonder what our fate will be in an hour?

I followed her to the pavilion in the backyard to see her. This time I sat across from each other at close range, and I could see her face clearly, her eyes were now pure and clear, and the light shone on her face, but there was a faint black breath under her fair skin.

From her pulse, I concluded that she had a chronic illness and asked, "What are the symptoms of discomfort with the girl?" "I also know a little bit about Chinese medicine.

"Every time the slave geranium arrived, I felt severe pain and bleeding. His Highness said that this was a warning to me, and if I left without permission, I would die of blood. Midorihime whispered.

I explained, "If the girl is not born with a disease, then she has been given chronic poison." ”

The other party immediately became vigilant, and then asked, "Sir, do you know what poison caused it?" ”

"Croton, rhubarb, raw star, morning glory, cantharid, merchant, mercury, musk, lead powder, soil hyssop, centipede, etc. may cause women to collapse more than once." I follow the explanation of the medicinal properties of Chinese medicine.

Midorihime nodded in response, and I added, "These drugs are harmful to women. I didn't say the second half of the sentence, "I don't know if it's harmful to female ghosts!" ”

The other party withdrew his arm from my hand, lowered his sleeve, and asked, "What happened to the scholar and Nie Xiaoqian you said in the end?" ”

I also know that people and ghosts have different paths, and the final ending is not good, so I didn't tell her that Ning Caichen's era was very dark, and "A Chinese Ghost Story" also had two sequels, I have seen them all, and it is not good.

In response to Midorihime's inquiry, I could only answer: "Our fate is controlled by others, but what can be fought for, although it will cost a lot." ”

The other party asked, "Do you think it's worth it?" ”

I nodded in agreement and continued: "Take myself as an example, I owe His Royal Highness the Ghost Emperor twenty years of time, if I don't fight for myself, I will have to give up twenty years of life, and I don't know what the result of the agreement between the Ghost Exploration Dao Master and your Highness will be?" ”

"Is Childe willing to stay and pay off his debts?" Midorihime is still this problem.

I couldn't answer, but the other party understood what I meant, so he continued: "Childe doesn't have to pay the debt of these twenty years in person, but he needs to exchange the souls of ten people. ”

Asking someone else to pay my debts for me, and at the cost of my life, is contrary to my conscience and morality as a human being.

Midorihime explained: "You are a doctor, and the lives of ten people are not difficult for you, but for the most heinous people, you only need to use your hands to do it." ”

As a doctor, especially in the emergency department, the life and death of patients are in their hands, and a slight mistake can take the life of a patient, and some even kill people.

But when I graduated, I had already sworn before the Red Cross that I would abide by and follow the professional ethics of doctors all my life, otherwise hospitals and clinics would not be doctors who save lives, but "white wolves" who live for money, fame and fortune.

Seeing that I was hesitant, Midori continued to introduce: "Your grandfather is a wise man, his glory and wealth are not worthy of the powerful, and with power, he can control the fate of others. With great power in your hands, why worry about glory, wealth and fame? ”

I immediately said: "I can't use someone else's life to pay off my debts, this is against my conscience and morality, I made a heavy oath before I officially became a doctor, I must not violate the professional ethics of doctors!" ”

Midorihime took a deep breath, and then asked, "You must have encountered the most heinous people, some of whom are full of evil, but they have not been punished by the law, let alone retribution, if they seek medical treatment from you, you don't want to take the opportunity to get rid of them and eliminate harm for the people?" ”

Her question was not complicated, but I thought about it for a while and immediately replied: "In front of the doctor, there are only patients, and there is no good or evil, as long as they come to us for treatment, they are all our patients, the doctor's duty is to save the life and help the wounded, and it is the doctor's duty to treat the sick and save people, I am not a judge, so I can't judge the good and evil of the patient, let alone the executioner, and I can't take the patient's life!" ”

Midorihime also thought quickly, and then asked: "Then if the patient you want to save is not dead and stubborn, and you save him, it will cause more innocent people to be injured or even killed, then do you still want to save him?" ”

"Save!" I replied in the affirmative, "His sickness is in the flesh, and I will restore him to health, and his evil is in his soul, and I will make him turn from evil to good, and if I cannot turn him to good, then my medical skills are not good." ”

Midorihime couldn't convince me, so she changed the subject, "Then what if Mr. might cure the slave's old illness?" ”

I thought quickly, and then replied: "If it is a female patient, I am confident that it can be treated, and I did not bring medicine this time, only acupuncture equipment, but I am afraid that it will be difficult to make the girl return to normal." ”

Midorihime stood up, turned around and walked to the window, then walked towards the door, wandered back and forth for a few steps, and finally made up her mind, and said, "You will treat me with acupuncture, whether you can make me heal or not, I don't blame you, and I will keep you safe!" ”

I hurriedly opened the two books I carried with me, crammed my feet, and then took out the acupuncture equipment, explaining: "I need hot soup for acupuncture, and the girl may bear the silver needles pierced into the body?" ”

She hesitated again, then said to me, "You stay here later, I'll go out." ”

I answered, she quickly opened the door and left, and I took the opportunity to find a way to detoxify with acupuncture.

When Midorihime returned, she had an extra copper kettle in her hand and a string of copper bells.

She hung the bell on the door's eyebrow, and with a turn of her palm, she conjured a copper stove with red charcoals, and burned the copper kettle full of water on the stove, "What else do you want, just say, but you only have half an hour to apply needles to me!" ”

"An oil lamp." I responded, the needle has an alcohol swab inside, but I'm not sure if it's still effective? It can also be sterilized by burning silver needles with a flame.

Midorihime conjured a lotus leaf lamp and lit it.

However, acupuncture also requires an unspeakable request, and I blushed and said, "The girl needs to take off her clothes before she can apply the needle!" ”

The other party's face also turned red and immediately refused, which I can understand.

Lu Ji said: "I will keep my underwear and not delay you to find the needle, right?" ”

I agreed, this is also one of the acupuncture moxibustion, but the premise is that after the needle, the patient can't move, and he can't move, otherwise he will pull the clothes, and the needle body will be driven.

Midorihime slowly unbuckled her belt and shed her bright red silk robe, leaving only white underwear.

The scene was not as glamorous as I expected and imagined, only the other party's hands, feet and head were exposed, and the rest of the body was wrapped in a gauze coat.

I took a deep breath, motioned for her to lie down on the recliner, counted the acupuncture equipment, and began to look for acupuncture points.

There are a total of 720 acupuncture points on the human body, 52 single acupoints, 309 double acupoints, and 50 extrameridian acupoints. Among these acupuncture points, there are 108 important acupoints and 36 "dead acupoints", and since the other party is willing to do acupuncture for them, they are putting their lives in my hands. Maybe she really believed in my work ethic as a doctor.

However, when my fingers touched her body, she was still visibly nervous and vigilant, her skin was tight, and I first found the sobbing point under her face. When I stabbed the acupuncture point under Midorihime's eyelids with a stainless steel needle that had been poisoned in flames, she had a look of horror in her eyes.

I hurriedly comforted her: "I will not hurt any patient, and I will not allow myself to make the slightest mistake in the process of treating patients!" ”

After hearing this, she relaxed a lot and exhaled softly.

I quickly plunged the needle into her sobbing ***, and her tears burst out of her eyes.
