Chapter 720: Seeking Medicine People All Over the Mountains

The Great Wizard's Day of Releasing Medicine is really a big event for the poor people.

So much so that on the last stretch of the mountain road leading to the wizard's hall, there was almost a steady stream of poor people who came to ask for medicine.

When I got to the peak where the Wizard's Hall was located, it was full of people.

The Wizard's Hall is actually a peculiar dome-shaped temple, which was not built for long.

After all, wizards only gradually became known after modern civilization infiltrated the mountain tribes.

Tens of hundreds of years ago, the residence of the great wizard was nothing more than the domed grass hut of the tribe.

Therefore, this peculiar temple in front of you is actually the product of the combination of tribal culture and the architectural form of the temple.

In front of the gate of the Wizard's Palace, there is a large square of thousands of square meters, which could have easily accommodated tens of thousands of people.

However, because there are too many people who go up the mountain to ask for medicine on the day of the release of medicine, several gates are set up around the main square, and the wizard's hall arranges special personnel to be responsible for guarding the gates.

The first duty of the gate post is to screen out the poor who have only mild illnesses and can go to ordinary hospitals for treatment.

The second is to collect the entrance fee.

If some poor people do not listen to the advice and insist on entering, then they need to pay this entrance fee.

Admission fees are not cheap, which further keeps the poor and common ills out of the door.

Of course, it is not only the poor patients with ordinary diseases who have to be charged, but also those who have to enter the door, and the fees will be more expensive.

As for who is poor and who is rich, who is an ordinary patient and who is seriously ill, it depends on the sharp eyes of the wizard who guards the door.

In fact, these wizards are really sharp-eyed, Meng Hao and Ding Huang stood on the hillside and watched for a while, and found that not only the real incurable diseases, or seriously ill patients were put in for free by several gate posts, and even a few poor people who came to ask for medicine on behalf of their families were also released for free.

Of course, there will be mistakes, omissions, or favoritism, but basically it can be regarded as fair and strict.

For example, when the people I met on the road entered the door, the poor brother and sister were let in for free after explaining the situation.

And the fashionable young man An Raya was blocked from the door.

Anraya inevitably complained to the rich son of the rich family behind him, Carocha, and wanted Carocha to help him pay the money, but Carocha ignored it at all.

In the end, Anraya had to pay an extra entrance fee, indignant but helpless.

But when Carocha and his wife entered the door, the two of them just whispered a few words to the gatekeeper, and the doorkeeper put them in for free.

As for the poor people all over the mountains, a few are watching the excitement, most are waiting to enter the door, and some are poor people who are blocked by the entrance fee.

In addition, at each doorway, there are four strong men dressed in the uniform of the wizard's hall, and they are not responsible for distinguishing whether the people lining up to enter the door are rich or poor, but just watching everyone inside and out.

If someone made a disturbance, they would throw the troublemaker directly down the hill without mercy.

Meng Hao and Ding Huang had seen a strong man do it with their own eyes, and his martial arts were not weak, which shocked people all over the mountain, and no one dared to rush to the door.

Meng Hao and Ding Huang also walked to a door after seeing Carocha and the others enter the door.

Before he could speak, the wizard who was in charge of reviewing the fees raised his eyes and glanced at Meng Hao and Ding Huang, and then said with a sneer: "At first glance, it's not from our T country, right?" is still wearing such a set of clothes for the poor in country T, what's the matter, you want to get by? ”

Meng Hao and Ding Huang were not angry, but secretly admired the wizard's eyesight.

Meng Hao opened his mouth and said: "It's not that I want to get by, I just don't want to attract attention, I just saw that there are still rich people and foreign tourists going in, how do you say how to charge, we pay the fee!" ”

The gatekeeper heard Meng Hao's Mandarin very fluent, and his attitude was both peaceful and friendly, so he turned back and said, "If the rich man wants to enter, he must charge five times the entrance fee. Foreigners who want to enter will have to charge ten times the entrance fee. The two of them can each pay 50,000 T coins or 10,000 Chinese dollars. ”

Meng Hao didn't say much, and directly paid 20,000 Han yuan, and then went in with Ding Huang.

"In the past three days of pill release, the Wizard Hall has earned a lot of money from the entrance fee alone!"

Ding Huang sighed quietly.

"The reputation of the Great Wizard is too loud in the T country, if it is not restricted, I am afraid that the entire wizard hall will be filled with people, and it will not be able to operate at all! Charging tickets is also a way to restrict people from entering! Meng Hao said.

Ding Huang knew that he was reasonable, so he nodded and looked around.

But I saw that the large square of thousands of square meters in front of me was also full of people.

Around the perimeter of the main square, there are several rows of two-story and three-story buildings.

At the bottom of the building, there is a restaurant and a hotel.

But most of the time, it's still the pharmacy.

I walked into several pharmacies and took a look, and found that the pills or medicinal materials I bought inside were all produced by the Wizard Palace.

It seems that this is also a way for the Wizard's Hall to make money, and I asked the clerk, and the clerk said that these pharmacies usually operate.

It's just that the people who usually come to the Wizard's Hall are rich people who come for tourism or foreign tourist groups, and only on the three-day pill release day every quarter will so many poor people go up the mountain.

Moreover, even on the three-day medicine release day, the poor rarely go to the pharmacy to buy medicine, because the pills and medicinal materials in the pharmacy are not cheap, and only the rich or foreigners who come for sightseeing can afford to buy them.

Meng Hao took a look at those pills and medicinal materials, most of them were for health care and the like, and there were not many that could really cure diseases.

However, the clerk told Meng Hao and Ding Huang that if there was really any illness or the like, they could go to the door of the wizard's hall and ask the wizard for treatment.

If you are poor, the wizard will only charge a small fee, and the pills are basically free.

But if you are a wealthy person or a foreigner, you will need to charge a high fee, which may be higher than going to a regular hospital.

Meng Hao and Ding Huang slowly turned to the entrance of the Wizard Hall along the side shop, and sure enough, when they saw the entrance of the Wizard Palace, a large area was planned.

Seven or eight wizards sat in a row in the area, and next to each wizard, there was a long line.

Most of them were poor, but there were also a few well-dressed rich people.

The clerk said before that the Wizard Hall usually helps people diagnose diseases, but they usually charge a lot of money for diagnosis.

Therefore, in normal times, few poor people come to the wizard's hall to see a doctor, and the rich people don't need to queue up for such a long line at all.

But there are still so many rich people who come to join in the fun, and it is estimated that they are not well-informed enough, and they have no idea that the wizarding hall is usually open to the sick.

Or maybe they want to come on the day of the pill release and be able to meet the great wizard in person.

Meng Hao stood outside and watched for a while, and found that these wizards were indeed different from ordinary doctors when they were diagnosing people, and they would use witchcraft to a greater or lesser extent.

There were some patients who were originally sick and sat in front of the wizard, but after the wizard used witchcraft, they quickly became energetic and their condition improved greatly.

So much so that the people who were in line, both poor and rich, all looked at the wizard with a smile on their faces, as if they were looking at a god.

"I want to see the Great Wizard, please let me go to the Great Wizard!"

A man in front of him suddenly knelt down before a wizard and kowtowed to the wizard.

Look at him yellow-skinned and thin, obviously terminally ill.

Two other men beside him knelt down together and kowtowed to the sorcerer, presumably as relatives who had accompanied the sick man into the mountain.

"It's not that I don't let you go to see our master, it's that your illness has dragged on for too long, even if it's our master, there is no way! In this way, I will give you three Resurrection Pills, which will allow you to live for three more months! There is also a Xianle Pill, eat it when you can't stand it, it can ensure that you will soar to the fairy realm in happiness! ”

The wizard was gentle and seductive.

With tears in his eyes, the poor patient asked, "Can you really fly to the immortal realm?" ”

"As long as you haven't done anything evil in your life, you can!"

The wizard replied.

The poor patient fell down again, weeping and prostrating to the wizard.
