Early the next morning, the old gentleman also hurried over.

Last night, as soon as he heard that the old Taoist priest was injured, he was about to rush over to visit. But the family felt that he was so old, and the sky was cloudy last night, and they were afraid that it would be troublesome if it rained, so they all objected to him coming overnight, and the bookkeeper later sent a letter saying that the old Taoist priest had been treated and was no longer in danger of life, so that the old man did not have to worry, and the old man gave up. However, he didn't sleep well all night, and he thought about it a lot, knowing that the two of them must not have gone well this time.

As soon as the day dawned, the old gentleman got up, washed up briefly, and hurried over on the slider. When the old gentleman hurriedly entered the house, he was relieved to see that the old Taoist priest had already sat up.

After saying hello, the old gentleman sat next to the bed, and the feng shui master and the old Taoist priest told the old gentleman in detail about the qiē that happened last night.

After listening to this, the old gentleman did not speak for a long time. He had lived here for decades, but he didn't know that there was such a mysterious and strange figure in this vicinity. Not only does he not know, but I am afraid that no one in the local area knows the origin of this blind old man, he is really a ghost-like person, it is terrible.

The feng shui master also recalled that at the moment when the Taoist priest turned on the flashlight, because he was so close, he could see the blind old man's face clearly—a thin face, a wrinkled face, a high nose, deep eye sockets, and a bit like a Westerner, which was not at all the appearance seen in the silver trumpet.

The old Taoist priest also nodded, because although he only glanced at it, the general appearance of the blind old man was like what the feng shui master depicted.

According to the analysis of the three people, it should be the true appearance of the blind old man, and the appearance in the silver horn is obviously made by disguise, and at the moment of life and death on the mountain, he must remove all the masks in disguise, in order to ensure smooth breathing and sensitive reactions, so as to put himself in the best combat state.

At this time, the doctor who treated the old Taoist priest yesterday also came to visit, and he wanted to see how the old Taoist priest's condition was, so that he could know whether his diagnosis yesterday was accurate.

Of course, the old Taoist priest was very grateful to this doctor. But he did not tell the doctor the truth about his injuries, only that he was attacked by a group of bandits in the mountains last night and was injured by a dart.

The doctor felt a little strange after hearing this, because as a local, he knew that the people in this area were simple, although it could not be called "never closed at night, and the road was not left behind", but bandits, robbers and the like had not appeared for decades, if there were bandits nearby, how could he have never heard of them?

But he is also a smart man, when he saw the old Taoist priest say this, his eyes flickered a little, and the meaning was very vague, and he took it in a few words, as if he didn't want to talk about it in detail, so he knew that there must be something strange in it, and since the old Taoist priest didn't want to say it, he didn't need to ask.

The old gentleman, who is also a local, also felt that the old Taoist priest was a little reluctant to lie, so he hurriedly came out to play a round, because he was a villager in the village, and his silver number was very close to the doctor's pharmacy, so he was an acquaintance, and hurriedly asked someone to take dozens of oceans to the doctor, which was a thank you to him.

After resigning for a long time, the doctor saw that the old gentleman insisted on giving, so he had to accept it. Then he sat on the edge of the bed again, and gave the old Taoist priest a serious pulse, feeling that as he judged yesterday, the poison was really only a paralyzing effect, and judging from the pulse, the old Taoist priest had completely recovered to normal.

Doctors with superb medical skills are often good at "observing words and feelings", not only observing the various symptoms of patients very carefully, but also having a keen sense of various changes in the patient's emotions and every move. This doctor, of course, is even better in this regard. When he was taking his pulse, he felt that the old Taoist priest seemed to want to ask him something several times, but he wanted to say something. He smiled at the old Taoist priest and said, "Is there something wrong with the Taoist chief?" It's okay, you can just say it."

The old Taoist priest smiled a little embarrassedly and said: "There was something I was very curious about, and I wanted to ask Mr., but I felt that I really shouldn't ask, but I didn't expect Mr. to be so astute, and you noticed it at once, ashamed, ashamed." ”

The doctor saw that the famous old Taoist priest was so modest and peaceful, and his goodwill in his heart increased a lot, and he also responded with a smile: "The Taoist is too worried, do you want to ask me what kind of medicine I use?" ”。

The old Taoist priest hurriedly smiled and nodded: "Sure enough, I was guessed by Mr. at once, you also know that I come here every year to collect medicine, although the purpose of collecting medicine is not exactly the same as your collection of medicine - you collect medicine to cure diseases and save people, and I collect medicine to refine pills, in order to prolong life - but barely half of my peers, so it should be taboo to ask my peers for secret recipes."

"Haha, the Taoist chief is a fairy-like figure in our area, especially good at feng shui, your various magical deeds, we also all know, in our area is widely spread, especially accurately calculated that there will be cracks in that place, saved a family of five, what a merit this is, it is also a coincidence, you saved a daughter of a family of five, now she has grown up, happened to marry near our home, became our neighbor, she often says, you are the savior of their family, without you, Their family has long since become underground ghosts, and now they still have your tablet in their house! I have admired you for a long time, but I didn't have the opportunity to meet and talk to you, but the world is unpredictable, and you have always suffered from this difficulty, but it has contributed to our acquaintance.

Since you have always asked, I don't have to hide it, there are no outsiders here today, this old gentleman, in our area is the most respected squire, not only in the former Qing Dynasty as a feudal official, later in the Republic of China government also served, honest and kind, in our area of high prestige; And this young man, although I don't know much about it, but since he is a friend of you and the old gentleman, he must also have an upright character, so I will tell this secret of mine today, this secret, I originally wanted to bring it into the coffin, but today you always want to know, I think it is okay to say it. ”

After this doctor said this, the old gentleman, the Taoist priest, and the feng shui master couldn't help but prick up their ears. Listening to the doctor's tone, it was as if he was talking not only about a secret recipe, but as if it was a shocking secret.

When the doctor said this, he suddenly stopped, then walked to the door, leaned out to look, and saw that there was no one, so he re-entered the room, bolted the door, sat back in his seat, and said in a low voice mysteriously: "Didn't the Taoist chief want to know what medicine I was using?" ”

The old Taoist priest nodded: "Yes, because when I was hit by a dart, I soon felt numb in my shoulders, weak, and felt that my head was dizzy, I knew at that time that this dart was poisonous, and I thought that my old life, this time I am afraid that it will not be guaranteed, but I didn't expect that after only one night, I woke up, and the wound was not very painful, a little numb, so I thought, Mr. must have used some secret recipe and miracle medicine for me, so that I could recover in such a short period of time, it is really amazing!" I have been collecting medicines for so many years, and I am also very interested in various medicines, and I have a rough understanding of the medicinal properties of some medicines, but I really can't think of any medicine that will have such a miraculous effect, so out of curiosity, I want to ask my husband."

The doctor nodded: "To tell you the truth, I didn't use any medicine at all."

Hearing the doctor say this, not only the old Taoist priest was surprised, but even the feng shui master and the old gentleman next to him couldn't believe their ears. Could it be that the doctor is joking? But looking at his stern face, it doesn't look like it!

The doctor still had a serious expression and whispered: "Because of this poison in you, 'no medicine' is the 'best medicine', and if you use any other medicine, then it will be hopeless, so I think that the Taoist chief has made so many merits before he should die, otherwise if he finds any other doctor, I am afraid that he will be more than lucky."

The more the three of them listened, the more they didn't understand, what the hell was going on, how did they feel that this doctor was a bit like gibberish? What kind of medicine is he selling in his gourd?

The doctor saw the confused expressions of the three people, and knew that the more they listened to it, the more confused they became, so he drank the saliva, and took the mysterious medical book handed down by the master, the fragment of "The Yellow Emperor's Outer Classics", the relationship between this poison and Ma Boiling San, Hua Tuo's treatment of Cao Cao, etc., these related things were explained in detail, and the three of them suddenly realized after listening to them. They never expected that the medicine on this poison dart turned out to be the ingredient in Hua Tuo Ma's boiling powder, which was really amazing.

The old Taoist priest, who had a good understanding of herbal medicine, was even more surprised, and he said half-jokingly and half-seriously: "Listening to Mr. say this, I am really knowledgeable, it seems that I am fortunate to have suffered this dart, otherwise how can I have the chance to know this?" It's worth it."

When he said this, the other three couldn't help but laugh.

"However, it seems that the bandit who played darts was really not simple, and he was able to find this herb, because of this herb, I have been looking for decades in the mountains, and I have found nothing, although my master has collected this herb in this mountain, but I have not found it, it seems that it should be extremely rare.

Until last year, one evening, a pharmacist suddenly brought this herb to my pharmacy, saying that it was a poisonous herb, and asked me if I knew what kind of medicine should be used to treat this poison. At that time, I was very excited, because the master not only drew this herb, but also made a specimen, I have seen it countless times, so I am very familiar with this herb, I immediately asked him where this herb came from, he only said that a medicine farmer sold it to him, of course I did not tell him the truth, just asked him to keep the herb, let me study the medicinal properties, and then he stayed, and in the evening of the next day, he came again and asked me if there was any result, I told him, I really don't know what medicine can cure this toxicity, and after that, the matter will be over. ”

Somehow, after listening to the doctor's words, the old Taoist priest and the feng shui master all had their eyes lit up, as if they had thought of something. The two looked at each other secretly, and then the old Taoist priest asked the doctor, "Then do you remember what that medicine merchant looked like?" ”
