"It's the village chief who lives here."

The group led Xie Lingbai and Wen Changheng to a house, and when they walked in, they found an old man in his sixties lying on the bed, his face was pale, and he was even breathing weakly.

Xie Lingbai walked to the edge of the bed and sat down, glanced at Wen Changheng, and then reached out and pretended to take the pulse for the village chief, and the room was silent.

Xie Lingbai looked calm on the surface, but in fact, his heart was already like an ant on a hot pot, he couldn't diagnose the pulse at all, what was normal and what was abnormal, no one had taught him, and the medical books were just talking on paper.

"Doctor Xie, how is my old man? Possible to save? ”

The woman next to her asked with some concern, Xie Lingbai let go of her hand, tried to make her voice sound calmer, and said, "The village chief is not evil. ”

"Isn't it evil? What's wrong with that? ”

"This specific reason needs further research to know."

"Let's not talk about this for now, can you cure the village chief?"

The man who was the leader just now asked, his attitude was much worse than that of the village chief's wife, Xie Lingbai was reluctant to talk to him from the bottom of his heart, but now the situation did not allow him to do so.

"Salvation can be saved, but it's a pity that I don't have anything at hand now, and I don't have a medicine box with me, so it's better for you to send a few people to the city with us, and then ......"

"It will take a day to get to the city here, and I don't know what will happen to the village chief, and now they are too weak to afford to wait."

"Dr. Xie wants a medicine box, we have it here, Dr. Chen, you go and get your medicine box."

"Alas, okay."

A middle-aged man went out, it is estimated that it is the so-called Doctor Chen, Xie Lingbai's abacus was not successful, he originally wanted to leave here first, and when he arrived in the city, the power of the Wen Mansion was great, and it was not difficult to get rid of these people.

It didn't take long for Dr. Chen to bring his medicine box, Xie Lingbai opened the medicine box and took a look, he didn't know how to use the contents at all.

"How many people are unconscious?"

Wen Changheng asked Dr. Chen, and Dr. Chen replied: "There are ten people plus the village chief, and the village chief's side is the most serious. ”

"Just because you're in the mountains?"

"Yes, they were all in good spirits when they set out in the morning, and not long after they came back in the evening they were delirious and speechless, and in less than two days they fell unconscious."

"Haven't encountered it before?"

"That mountain is often visited, and I've never encountered anything like it."

Wen Changheng nodded: "I have a general understanding, Dr. Xie needs absolute silence to see a doctor here, and please wait outside first." ”

"This ......"

Several of them looked at each other, and one of them said, "What if you run away?" ”

"If you don't feel at ease, you can fence this house."

The group discussed it for a while, and finally compromised, and after a while, there were only three people left in the room: Wen Changheng, Xie Lingbai, and the village chief.

Xie Lingbai ran to the window and opened a crack to take a look, and found that those people really surrounded the house, he looked up at the roof, and whispered to Wen Changheng: "Master, let's climb the roof and escape?" ”

As soon as the words fell, he heard some footsteps on the roof, Xie Lingbai leaned in, he really didn't expect them to send people to guard the roof.

It's really hard to fly now.

Wen Changheng saw Xie Lingbai with his hands folded and didn't know what to mutter, so he couldn't help but ask, "What are you doing?" ”

"I pray that God will let the village chief get better soon, otherwise we will have to be buried together, and I still have to take care of my brother, who can't die."

"Only the right symptom can be given/medicine."

This means that he should not waste time, Xie Lingbai naturally understands this truth, but what else can he do now, he walked to the side of the bed and said: "Then you have to have this ability, even if I know what his symptoms are, I can't take medicine, I still know how many catties and taels I have." ”

"How do you feel when you just take your pulse?"

Xie Lingbai rolled his eyes: "What can I feel, that is, I can feel that his pulse is still beating, at least he is not dead." ”

"Let's write a prescription."

"What to write?"

"Whatever you want."

Xie Lingbai opened his mouth wide, and then deliberately lowered his voice and asked, "Do you want to get by?" If it gets worse, they'll probably break us up. ”

Wen Changheng's expression was faint: "He is already like this, no matter how serious it is, how serious can it be." ”

"But that's also a random prescription, besides, I can't recognize all the medicines, how can I know how to prescribe a prescription."

"You've read most of the medical books, but you haven't memorized a single prescription?"

The medical book just now fell on the burning carriage, and now it is estimated that it is all burned out, Xie Lingbai recalled it carefully, and hesitated: "Just remember a recipe to clear the heat and remove the fire." ”

Wen Changheng raised his chin and motioned for him to write it down, Xie Lingbai walked to the table and wrote down the recipe, and then brought it to Wen Changheng.

"They don't look like they're on fire, do they?"

Wen Changheng glanced at the prescription, "You put away the prescription, go to Dr. Chen, go to him and grasp the medicinal materials on the prescription, and then boil five bowls of water into one bowl of water, remember, don't let others see the prescription." ”

"But ......"

"You have to give some explanation, so they will believe that you are really trying to find a way to treat the village chief."

"But he won't be good if he drinks this......" Xie Lingbai said and suddenly thought of something, guessing: "Are you trying to delay time and wait for Wei Xue to come and save us?" ”

Wen Changheng didn't admit it or deny it, Xie Lingbai took it as his acquiescence, thinking that this might be a way, after all, there was no other way now.

"I'm going to grab the medicine right now."

"You boil the medicine yourself, don't let the doctor get close to the medicine jar, otherwise it will definitely be exposed."

"Got it."

Xie Lingbai put the prescription in his arms, and then walked out of the room to find Dr. Chen to ask for medicinal materials, Wen Changheng glanced at the door, and then sat on the edge of the bed and reached out to put it on the village chief's wrist.

The pulse seems to be peaceful, but if you look closely, you can find that there is occasionally a hint of confusion in the peace, but it is easy to ignore because it is not obvious.

He raised his hand to check the village chief's eyes and mouth, lifted the quilt and pressed his abdomen, raised his hand to untie the village chief's shirt, and then took out the acupuncture bag from the medicine box next to the bed.

Spread out the acupuncture bag, took out a silver needle, found the acupuncture point and pierced it, and then continued the second one, until the fifth one, but heard some footsteps at the door.

Wen Changheng sat up straight and looked over, and after a while, the door was pushed open, and it was the village chief's wife who walked in, still holding a end plate in her hand.

When the village chief's wife came in and saw the silver needle on the village chief's chest, she was stunned for a moment, Wen Changheng got up and explained: "Doctor Xie just applied the needle to the village chief and ordered me to guard it here, and he went to decoct the medicine." ”

"I see, thanks to the two of you, otherwise my old man wouldn't know what would have happened."

The village chief's wife put the end plate on the table, and there were some meals in it, and she put it on the table in the same way, Wen Changheng asked, "Madame doesn't believe in sacrifices?" ”

"It's not that I don't believe it, I just feel uneasy, I want to exchange human life for human life, how can I get by with this conscience?! If the old man wakes up, he will not accept it, but unfortunately there are many evil people, and I am not the only one who can do the master. ”

"Did the village chief talk about anything when he came back that day? For example, what did you come across that you hadn't seen before? ”

The village chief's wife recalled, shook her head and said: "No, that day was no different from before, but because the prey was more difficult to catch that day, I delayed in the mountains for a long time, and I could come back at noon on a normal day, and I didn't return until it was dark that day." ”

"If you haven't returned for a day, can you bring enough dry food and water?"

"I brought water, but I didn't bring dry food, so it only took half a day."

"Did the village chief tell me if he had eaten anything on the mountain that day?"

"I haven't talked about it."

Wen Changheng pondered for a while, and then the village chief's wife said: "It's also dark outside, I'm afraid the two of you can't leave today, so I will stay here for the time being, and I will prepare some meals." ”

"Thank you."

"It's my time to say thank you."

After speaking, the village chief's wife looked at the village chief lying on the bed with some concern, and Wen Changheng said: "Madam, during Dr. Xie's treatment, I hope that Madame can make those people not come in and disturb." ”

"Okay."

The village chief's wife went out after getting down, and Wen Changheng returned to the bedside to continue to administer the needle, and for the time being, I don't know what the village chief did and ate that day, and I am afraid that the only way to find out the cause is to go into the mountains......

When Xie Lingbai boiled the medicine and brought it in, the food on the table was already cold, and the silver needle on the village chief on the bed had already been retrieved, and everything looked the same as before he went out.

"I'm finally done, do you really want to feed him?"

Xie Lingbai was a little hesitant, what if he drank his life later?

"Feel free to feed a few bites."

Wen Changheng didn't look too worried, Xie Lingbai couldn't figure out if he was really not worried or if he had always had this expression, maybe his heart was already in a hurry.

He stepped forward and raised the village chief's head slightly, then handed the medicine bowl to his mouth, and carefully poured the medicine juice into it, because he was unconscious, so it was not very easy to feed, and gave up after a few mouthfuls.

"I've drunk the medicine, what now?"

"Wait."

"Wait? What are you waiting for? Are you waiting for a miracle to happen or waiting for Wei Ze to save us? Xie Lingbai said a little deflated, "I think, no matter which one is impossible, I just inquired, what is the name of Xiaoxun Village here, Wei Xue must have gone to Zhu Village to find us now." ”

He walked to the table and looked at the food, sat down and picked up the dishes and chopsticks and ate a few bites, although it was all cold, but he didn't eat all afternoon, so he ate some, and he was a full ghost when he died!

"Ahem, ahem... Ahem......"

At this time, there was a faint cough on the bed, and the rice in Xie Lingbai's mouth squirted out directly, and he turned his head to look at the village chief on the bed with a hellish expression.

"Ahem......"

It was indeed the village chief who was coughing, he got up and walked to the side of the bed to take a look, and saw that the village chief's eyelids seemed to move, and then slowly opened his eyes, Xie Lingbai was so frightened that he took a step back and bumped into Wen Changheng behind him.

"Damn, Wen Changheng, he's really on fire!"
