Chapter 4: The Heart of the Healer
"Giggle~"
In the early morning, the cool morning breeze blew into the small courtyard through the cracks in the fence, and in the crowing of roosters, Axe Village, a small village located at the foot of the Tianshan Mountains, on the edge of the tree country, woke up.
With the smoke rising from the chimneys of each house, the thick aroma of rice attracted the birds on the branches to cheer and jump.
"Xiao Qi, hurry up and finish your homework after eating. ”
"Well, got it. ”
Hearing the urging of the old man Ling in the courtyard, Qi Ming answered lazily, and then picked up the bowl and quickly shaved the leftovers in the bowl into his mouth.
Before dawn, he will get up in unison, and put the herbs he picked up with Jing Daochuan the day before he went into the mountains according to the type and medicinal properties before dawn.
After eating at this moment, Qi Ming came to the courtyard and after sitting on the stone bench, he grabbed a handful of millet hanging on the stone table, and was tempted by the chickens raised in the courtyard.
In the face of the golden millet, how could a few pheasants resist the temptation, and Sa Huan rushed over.
The pheasants came over and scattered the millet in their hands, and then picked the fattest and largest hen and grabbed it.
Then he hugged him in his arms and comforted him with a distressed face: "Little brother, little brother, I have wronged you today." ”
In the middle of the words, Qi Ming took out a slender silver needle from his body, and as soon as the words fell, "Huh!" The needle fell, and the slender silver needle pierced the hen's body accurately.
"Boom~Boom~"
"Plop Plop Plop Plop~"
The hen opened her wings in Qi Ming's arms and fluttered vigorously, trying to break free from this devil who actually attacked the chicken, but unfortunately let it flutter again After all, it was firmly pressed in Qi Ming's arms.
"Prick it first, you forgot what I told you a few days ago!"
The large formation in the courtyard attracted the attention of Jing Daochuan, and with a little sternness, Qi Ming, who had already been scrambled by the hens, said.
"Uh-huh. ”
In Qi Ming's opinion, Jing Daochuan is two-faced, and he is very fond of him in life, but in terms of medical skills, he is as strict as Old Man Ling.
In response, Qi Ming took out a silver needle from the inner pocket of his clothes and stabbed it at an acupuncture point on the hen's neck.
The silver needle pricked the hen and instantly quieted down, lying between her legs that were singing in unison, unable to move.
To learn acupuncture, silver needles are something that Qi Ming must bring on his body, just like the sword of sword cultivation, people do not leave the sword and the sword does not leave the body.
At the beginning, Qi Ming wondered why his grandfather taught him acupuncture to animals in addition to teaching him acupuncture. What's even more puzzling is that you have to practice with animals, like giving an innocent chicken a needle right now.
Later, after listening to the amazing explanation of the well road, he understood.
"Doctors must be able to heal all diseases and cure the world, and they must also develop along with the trend to encompass all differences.
Cultivators and cultivators who cultivate to be powerful have spiritual pets and captive spiritual animals, and our healers must not only be able to treat people, but also be able to treat spiritual pets and spiritual animals. ”
He is often proud of his forward-looking well, but Qi Ming scoffs at it, shouting in his heart that I don't want to be a veterinarian!
Qi Ming's heart was firm, but it couldn't withstand the surging enthusiasm of the two old men, even the hardest iron had already been melted by the two flames.
When the needle was pricked one by one, Qi Ming felt that this chicken was too pitiful.
The body of the kung fu chicken that does not blink is pierced with silver needles, and even its toes are not spared. If it is like a spirit beast that has opened its mind, it will definitely reprimand this family and make it endure the pain and torture that this ordinary chicken can't bear!
"Doctor Well!
Just when Qi Ming was complacent about his masterpiece, an anxious shout came from outside the fence courtyard, and before the sound arrived, Qi Ming thought to himself, it seems that there is something urgent to find his grandfather.
As the door was pushed open, Qi Ming saw a boy as old as him running in gasping for air, this boy he recognized as a student of Xuewutang, it seemed to be from the next door Tieniu Village, named Ji Shan.
Although this Jishan is not a good friend with him, he does not follow Wang Shuo to bully himself.
I'll do to others as they do to me. This was a principle engraved in Qi Ming's heart to act as a person, and it was also taught to him by Old Man Ling.
For Jishan Qiming not to say that he has a good impression, but it is not bad, at this moment, he saw that Jing Daochuan was busy in the house, so he kindly asked Jishan:
"What's the matter? What's the matter with my grandfather?"
Hearing the sound, Ji Shan saw Qi Ming sitting on the stone bench in the corner of the courtyard, but when he saw the big hen full of silver needles on Qi Ming's legs, his heart trembled and he thought to himself what he was doing!
It was a scene he had never seen before, and it was horrific to him at the age of six! For a moment he forgot what he was here for.
Seeing that Ji Shan's usual two small eyes had been opened to the maximum, just like that, with a slight horror, looking at the chicken on his lap, Qi Ming also realized something and couldn't help but be a little embarrassed.
"cough~cough~"
"Hehe~, this is my little brother, it's sick, what's that, I'll treat him. ”
Qi Ming said incoherently.
Fortunately, at this time, Qi Ming saw Jing Daochuan put down the work in his hand and came out of the house. I breathed a sigh of relief.
"What's the matter, I'm in a hurry. ”
"One of our classmates has a broken bone, and Mr. Shen asked me to invite you to go. ”
When he saw the well river come out of Yoshiyama, he paid attention to him, and he admired the well road river, because his old man who made a living by hunting in the mountains was a frequent visitor to the well road river.
"Is it a fracture? Just let Xiao Qi go with you. ”
Hearing the fracture, Jing Daochuan's heart was also relieved, and he looked at Qi Ming, who was busy collecting needles, and said.
"Ah~"
"Grandpa, I haven't learned enough about your bones, so why don't you go for it. ”
Qi Ming, who had just come out of the embarrassment with a sigh of relief, was embarrassed again when he heard Jing Daochuan's words.
This ability to be bone-bound has already taught him several times, but now he doesn't take the ability of medicine to heart at all, so every time it is perfunctory, and it is only revealed when it comes to use.
"You stinky boy! I don't usually tell you to study hard!"
Jing Daochuan was a little annoyed, but he didn't say much, after all, there are outsiders and there are urgent things now.
"Grab the medicine box, just in time to study again. ”
Hearing this, Qi Ming was overjoyed, and hurriedly nodded in response: "Uh-huh." ”
After quickly putting away the silver needle, he hurriedly ran to the house of Jingdaochuan to put up the medicine box, followed behind Jingdaochuan, and rushed to the Xuewutang in Qingniu Township.
Qi Ming was not happy because he could learn medical skills again, he was happy that he could go to the martial arts hall and enter it justifiably.
"Yoshiyama, whose bones were broken. ”
Xuewutang has Yu Qi, and on the way, Qi Ming looked at Ji Shan and asked.
"It's Yuqi. ”
"Yu Qi!"
Qi Ming was surprised, he was afraid of something, he was worried that it wouldn't be Yu Qi, but it turned out to be Yu Qi.
"Is the son of the blacksmith old Yu?"
Somewhat familiar with the name, Jing Daochuan asked.
"Uh-huh. ”
Yoshiyama responded.
At the same time, he knew the relationship between Qi Ming and Yu Qi, and told the reason for the incident without waiting for Qi Ming to ask more.
It turned out that Mr. Shen asked him to practice in actual combat today, perhaps because Yu Qi and Qi Ming had a good relationship, Wang Shuo picked him as his opponent and broke Yu Qi's calf in the sparring with a ruthless hand.
"Wang Shuo"
Qi Ming's brows furrowed, and he whispered in a deep voice.
With resentment, Qi Ming soon followed Jing Daochuan to Xuewutang, Xuewutang is very large, at least in this Qingniu Township.
There are two big stone lions at the door of Xuewutang, and I heard that this was given by the Wang family when Xuewutang was just built, that is, Wang Shuo's family.
At this time, Teacher Shen and a group of panicked students were standing at the door, it was estimated that they had been waiting for a long time, and when they saw Jing Daochuan coming, Shen Qianhua was busy pulling Jing Daochuan's arm and walking into the Xuewu Hall.
"Doctor Jing, you're here. ”
"No hurry, no hurry. Regarding Shen Qianhua's anxiety, Jing Daochuan said with a smile.
Qi Ming, who followed closely behind Jing Daochuan, crossed Jing Daochuan's back and saw Wang Shuo, whom he hated, among the students.
Qi Ming, who was silent in a low voice, just glanced at it fiercely, Qi Ming didn't plan to have a hard fight with Wang Shuo before he had no strength, and now was not the occasion for a collision.
Often going out with Jing Daochuan for medical rounds, Qi Ming knows what can and can't be done.
Wang Shuo, one of the students, noticed Qi Ming's glance just now, and thought, "Xiao Ye is still not convinced, and he will definitely break your leg when he is done!"
At this moment, Wang Shuo only dared to vent his anger in his heart, after all, Teacher Shen and Jing Daochuan were here.
Teacher Shen is someone he respects, at least for now.
And Jing Daochuan is a distinguished guest of their family, as a big family in Qingniu Township and engaged in the dart business, injuries and illnesses are common.
It's okay to move Qi Ming outside, he doesn't dare to act recklessly in front of Jing Daochuan.
Walking into the lobby of the Xuewu Hall, Qi Ming saw Yu Qi, who was a lump and honest man, lying on the ground in the lobby, the severe pain made him sweat on his forehead, his face was bloodless, and his lips became dry and white.
"Yu Qi. ”
Qi Ming was distressed and ran to him.
"Qi Ming, it's okay, don't worry. Seeing Qi Mingyu's weakness, he was relieved.
"Stop talking. ”
Jing Daochuan was also distressed when he saw this, this was a six-year-old doll, and he was busy shouting at Qi Ming to prepare to do it.
"Bring the medicine kit. ”
"Hmm. ”
Qi Ming was very skilled, put the medicine box next to Jing Daochuan, and at the same time firmly held down the Yu device that was a little trembling in pain without Jing Daochuan's instructions.
"Hold back!"
"Boom~"
"Ah~"
After grabbing Yu Qi's calf, he pulled a pair of bones with the sound of bones and Yu Qi's screams, and then quickly took out two long boards and rope belts from the medicine box to fix his calves.
"Wow~"
"That's it, Doctor Jing is amazing. ”
"yes. ”
The problem of having no action to give everyone a headache was settled in an instant in the hands of Jing Daochuan, and everyone couldn't help but exclaim.
"It's okay Yu Qi"
Qi Ming wiped the sweat off Yu Qi's head and said with relief. At the same time, looking at the admiration for Jing Daochuan in everyone's eyes, a strange look rose in his heart.
Jing Daochuan added: "When it's over, I'll ask Xiao Qi to bring you a few pairs of herbs, and it's good to stay at home for a month." ”
"Well, thank you, Grandpa Jing. ”
They are all from the same village and have a good relationship with Qi Ming, and Yu Qi often calls Jingdaochuan so affectionately.
"Excuse me, Doctor Jing, let's go and have some tea inside. ”
Shen Qianhua breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that he was fine, and he was busy thanking Jing Daochuan.
"No, there's still a bunch of things going on at home. Jing Daochuan waved his hand and refused.
Saying that, let Qi Ming help Yu Qi to go out, it is impossible for Yu Qi to cultivate again after he is injured, and they are all in the same village, so they will trouble Yu Qi's father again.
"Is this medicine?"
"If only I had Dr. Arii's skills. ”
Qi Ming helped Yu Qi to walk outside the Xuewu Hall, and the exclamations and whispers of the students kept coming from his ears.
Hearing these chores, he couldn't help but skim the well that was walking back, thinking that if he came by himself today, then the well doctor in their mouth was himself.
Qi Ming couldn't help but have a trace of regret, regretting that he didn't seriously study medical skills at the beginning.
After fighting with Wang Shuo, Qi Ming always thought that only a hard fist could be admired and convincing.
But in the amazement of these students, Qi Ming's mind changed slightly, and for the first time, he had the heart to learn medical skills.
