Chapter Seventy-Two: The Traveling Doctor

A few years later, Bai Mu resigned, and said that he wanted to concentrate on studying medicine, firstly because of his poor health, and secondly, he wanted to fulfill his original promise to use medical skills to help His Majesty's people.

Such a sycophant resignation was readily approved, so Bai Mu sold his property, took the money and changed into a plain white clothes, and left.

After buying a horse, the young man in white left slowly, with a thin sword of two taels of silver on his waist, and a basket of medicine on his back, and left the capital.

She didn't see that a young girl on the city wall was watching her leave.

……

Bai Mu went to the border. There's a war over there, and maybe a doctor will be needed. Of course, Bai Mu plans to be a traveling doctor and do something for the people, after all, the medical conditions of the people affected by the war are extremely poor, and they have no money, and they may not be able to get help if they meet a doctor.

She can't do much, she can only do her best. Strengthening herself while helping others is what she is most happy to do.

Bai Mu came to a small town, and when he was hungry, he found a restaurant, ordered a few side dishes and began to eat. She never treats herself harshly, especially now that Bai Mu has enough money on her body to live comfortably for the rest of her life, let alone save it.

A few young people ordered big fish and meat and feasted on them. After eating, one of them sighed, and said worriedly that the tartars had become more and more rampant lately, and that many villages had been destroyed, and that men, women, and children had been killed. At this, his eyes were red, and he almost crushed the teacup.

Several young people said indignantly, Bai Mu put down his chopsticks at some point, his eyes were heavy.

……

Bai Mu passed by a mountain, and near night, she finally saw a small village with people. Most of the people in the village are elderly and children, and there are few adults who can work.

There is a thick twilight in all of them, which is the despair of life. The men were all taken to serve as soldiers, even the women were taken to work as kitchens in the army, those who could do some work were taken away, and the rest of the people could only survive.

Bai Mu knocked lightly on the door, and a child came over to open the door for her.

"I'm a traveling doctor, I want to spend the night here tonight, I wonder if you can give me a room?"

The child looked at her curiously for a moment, and then called Grandpa and Grandpa all the way back to the house. After a while, an old man with a bamboo cane walked over slowly and looked at Bai Mu: "Young man, do you want to spend the night here?" ”

Bai Mu nodded, "I'm a doctor, if you need my help, it's my duty." ”

The old man was silent for a moment and said, "I have a spare room here, I'll take you there." ”

"Thank you." Bai Mu saluted and followed the old man.

The house is not small, but it is clear that it has not been cleaned for a long time. The old man bent his back, led her to a room, and said, "The house hasn't been cleaned for a long time, so you can just take it." "With that, just leave.

Bai Mu didn't mind, he swept the dust away at will, then took a piece of cloth and lay down on it and fell asleep.

……

The next morning, Bai Mu woke up with a sore back, and then walked out of the door. Without a trace of fireworks, the grandfather and grandson silently gnawed on the dry food, without even looking at Bai Mu.

Bai Mu has his own dry food, so naturally he will not trouble others. She thought for a while and said, "Old man, I will give you a pair of medicines, which is good for your body and is considered a reward." Please tell the people in the village, anyone who has physical problems can come to me, and I know a little bit about medical skills. With that, he picked up his baggage and walked out.

The old man took the medicine with some hesitation, and a smell of medicine came to his face, and he suddenly felt much refreshed, and couldn't help but smile: "Okay, thank you, doctor." ”

Bai Mu came to the square of the village, set up a stall, and then sat there calmly, with a good body, which attracted many hesitant people. Most of the people who came were women, looking at the young doctor curiously. Maybe it was the arrival of young people, and the dead air of the whole village seemed to have disappeared a little.

"I'm a doctor, I don't know if I can do something for you. If I don't have a lot of money at home, I can also accept other consultations, such as inviting me to a meal, or giving me a small gift. Bai Mu smiled and said authentically, which made those people suddenly have a good impression of her.

A little girl came over with a twist, looking to be only five or six years old, and her voice was crisp: "Big brother, will you cure the disease?" ”

Bai Mu smiled and nodded: "That's right." ”

The little girl cautiously talked about some of her grandmother's illnesses, Bai Mu thought about it, and asked her to bring the old man over, she had a good look. It is more reassuring and convincing to treat the disease in public, and the activities of the elderly are still convenient, so the little girl hurriedly ran away and helped her grandmother over.

Bai Mu began to observe the complexion when the old man didn't get closer, and then checked the pulse, and his heart was clear, it was a heart disease, so he took her some medicine, and told her what to pay attention to in the future, and it was easy to understand, the eyes of the people around him lit up, and the children hurriedly went to bring their old man over.

Bai Mu was busy all day, and when she was hungry halfway, she ate the food given to her by the old man, such as sweet potato steamed buns and other satisfying things. Until dark, Bai Mu continued to go to the old man's house for the night, this time the treatment was much better, the old man and his grandson seemed to have spirit, and they were more enthusiastic about her.

Although Bai Mu was quite tired, he was in a happy mood. Every time she was diagnosed and treated, it was equivalent to brushing her up with a wave of experience points, and it also made her feel happy to see those people who were already a little lifeless a little more angry.

Bai Mu didn't stay long, and after three days later, most of the people were recuperated by her, Bai Mu wrote a small book, which recorded some commonly used herbs and boiling methods, which can nourish the body. On the last day, she left quietly, and since then there has been a jade-faced traveling doctor on the rivers and lakes, hanging pots to help the world, and relieving many people.

More than ten years have passed, because of the pamphlets left by Bai Mu everywhere, more and more traveling doctors have appeared, and because they admired her, they decided to learn from her to practice medicine everywhere, and the consultation fee was low, and the reputation of the jade-faced traveling doctor resounded all over the rivers and lakes.

……

Bai Mu, who had white hair but still looked like a teenager, came to a mountain and couldn't help but feel a little melancholy. It was the last time she was here, and she knew she was leaving.

Bai Mu came to the valley and found her master, who was before she came. She spent her last time with her master, the only elder she could call a relative, died suddenly and was buried by her own apprentice.

That's it.
