The prescription came first, and it arrived before Song Youdu.

However, the cold crisp medicine shop has long been empty, and at most there are still surviving in the rich family, but they have to save their families first.

The herbs arrived a few days later, a drop in the bucket.

After a few more days, the complete treatment method came from the county town, and with a few doctors from Pu County, it was about ten days before the first batch of medicinal materials that could barely manage for a few days arrived. The reason why he can barely manage it for a few days is because there are not many people left, and it is said that the news that Dr. Cai has researched a treatment method has been urgently sent to the capital by Hezhou, and he wants to ask Angzhou for assistance.

Gradually, people with mild illnesses were cured.

At this time, there were some changes in the sick relocation workshop-

If someone can be cured, everyone naturally hopes that the person who will be cured will be themselves, and if everyone can be cured, everyone naturally hopes that they will be cured first.

Some people say that Taoists and monks give priority to saving the rich and noble in the city, others say that they especially do not like to save the rich and noble, and some people say that they can help more people every day, but they are willing to help only if they have money. The monk asked if the Taoist cared about these gossips, and the Taoist asked him rhetorically, and the monk smiled, and the Taoist smiled, but no one cared.

The closer we get to the dawn, the more we yearn for light.

It always has been.

Before I knew it, it had been fifteen days.

At this time, although there were still a large number of patients in the cold and crisp disease relocation workshop, they had not yet recovered, but what the monks and Taoists could do was almost done.

At one time, the mantra of relieving suffering and relieving the suffering was a simple Buddhist mantra, and the monasteries with magic inheritance were basically capital, but once the mage was very skilled in using it, and the effect was extraordinary. With the help of Song You, Master Yi's mantra for relieving suffering benefited almost everyone in the cold and sick relocation workshop, no matter whether they were mild or serious.

Those who should delay the disease have also been delayed.

In this regard, the mage did not contribute much.

The group no longer needs to stay in the cold for a long time.

It's just that the patients in the sick relocation workshop still like to gather around Venerable Yi Yi and listen to him chant and preach the Dharma, and Venerable Yi Yi is very patient, no matter how tired he is, he also takes care of the mood of these people, and patiently tells them about the Dharma, compassion, and the way of doing good.

Song You tends to only watch from the sidelines.

Mo said that he was a fake Taoist, even if he was a true Taoist priest or a god of the Heavenly Palace, he couldn't stop it at this time.

There are monks in Hanshu, and there are Taoists elsewhere.

It is difficult to say who will prosper and who will decline in the future.

……

On the sixteenth day, early in the morning.

"Brush!"

A three-flowered cat jumped down from the wall, ignoring the sick and pedestrians around, and shuttled through the crowd with small steps, and soon got to the side of the Taoist.

The fat monk also sat with the Taoist.

"Sanhua Niangniang is back?"

"That's right."

Song You turned his head to look at her, reached out and touched her head, and then looked up at the sky.

Today is the right time of year.

After a while, someone came to deliver the meal.

Most of the people who were responsible for distributing food and medicine in the sick relocation workshop were the officials in the original yamen, and the middle-aged man surnamed Jin was among them, and he was still alive with the care of Song You and the monks.

"Sir, Master......"

When they sent it to Song You and Master Yidu, the two of them found that today's meal was different.

Breakfast is mostly gruel, today it is much thicker, you can also see some meat foam in the porridge, and everyone also gives a piece of white flour bun. It was sent to the monk, because the monk did not eat meat, so the officials who distributed the rice gave him two pieces of steamed buns and a specially prepared vegetable bun.

The middle-aged man surnamed Jin looked left and right, and also took out a piece of blood sausage and a few pieces of dried meat from his cuff and handed it to Song You, and then took out a piece of persimmon from the other sleeve and handed it to the monk.

"This is sent by the younger brother, all of them are hearts, please be sure to accept them."

"Thank you."

Song You accepted it very generously.

The monk next to him wanted to refuse, but when he saw that the Taoist took it simply, he reluctantly accepted it.

Then he took two pieces of white flour steamed buns and vegetable buns, looked left and right, and then asked suspiciously: "Why does it seem to be a little different today?" ”

"Don't you know what time it is?"

"But I don't know."

“……”

Song You smiled.

It seems that Hezhou is too bitter, walking back to the county, and helping people wholeheartedly, so that he forgets the time.

So he said to him: "Today is the thirtieth day of the fifth year of Mingde, and it is Chinese New Year's Eve. ”

"Ah......h

The monk couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, and then he was also full of emotion.

"It's Chinese New Year's Eve!"

"Chinese New Year's Eve is just right for the epidemic."

"But he didn't finish the ......"

The monk was still a little worried between his eyebrows, broke the bun in his hand, put it down casually, and wanted to hand it to the cat to eat.

However, the cat just looked down and sniffed, glanced at him, then turned his head decisively, turned to the Taoist, and ate the dried meat from the Taoist's hand, and while eating, he turned back to the monk.

"When will the Master leave?"

"It's today, too."

"That's just the time to go."

"Haha."

"Let's eat."

Song You divided the dried meat and blood sausage among the swordsmen.

Jerky is a very ordinary air-dried meat, and blood sausage seems to be a special product of cold and crispy, and most of them are things that can only be eaten during the New Year's holidays, but he is a foreigner and is not very accustomed to eating.

Song You drank the porridge in a few sips, distributed the blood sausage to the elderly in the sick relocation workshop, returned to the house, packed his bags, and prepared to leave with the monks.

For a while, the sick relocation workshop became lively.

The Taoist and the monks lived in a room in the middle of the sick relocation workshop, and it was only a few dozen zhang away from here to the entrance of the workshop, but there were many patients gathered, and more and more people gathered.

But those who could still walk gathered on both sides and sent each other along the street.

"Is the gentleman leaving?"

"Where is the master going from now on?"

"Thank you, sir and master......"

"Mr. is a god descending from the earth......"

"The Master is the True Bodhisattva......"

"The villain kowtowed to the master and the master."

"Mr. and Master are very kind, and I am afraid that I will not be able to repay them in this life."

Voices came and went on both sides.

Monks and Taoists behaved differently.

The monks would patiently reply one by one, telling them why they were leaving, where they were going after that, reassuring them, and saying goodbye to them one by one. If you meet someone who salutes, you will return the salute one by one, and if you meet someone who kneels and kowtows, they will hurriedly go to help, tirelessly, and do not hesitate to work. If someone took off their jewelry and gave it away, they all refused, but instead gave the vegetable buns that he was not willing to eat in the morning to a young child who had not been sick for a long time.

The Taoist is much quieter, just walking through it, looking at the people on both sides with a pair of calm eyes, experiencing this moment, thoughtful.

This is really a scene that he has rarely experienced.

After all, the road is not long, and no matter how slow you go, it won't take long to reach the end.

"Amitabha, it's cold outside, don't stay for a long time, please go back." The monk turned around and stood at the door of the sick relocation workshop, facing everyone, clasped his hands together, and bowed deeply, "The poor monk will take the first step, may all the donors present be cured, and the Buddha will bless you, and there will be no disease and no disaster in this life." There is no need to think too much, the heaven and the earth are big, and doing good deeds is naturally concentric. ”

"I'm quitting too."

In comparison, the words of the Taoist are much shorter.

The two turned around one after another, one was very decisive, the other turned back three times one step at a time, and they all gradually left here.

……

Even on Chinese New Year's Eve, the streets are still clean, and there is still snow from last night on the road.

The Taoist and the monk walked slowly in front, the swordsman and the two horses followed, and the three-flowered cat was relatively free, smelling here and there.

It is comforting that although most of the streets are covered with snow, there are also a few houses where the snow in front of the door has been cleared, and sometimes when you walk somewhere in the alley, you can still hear the sound of shoveling snow, and you can distinguish the location of the sound of shoveling snow from the direction of the three-flowered cat turning its head.

"I heard the Taoist chief say that the Taoist has been cultivating on the mountain since he was a child?"

"I was picked up by Master since I was a child."

"No wonder the Tao is so high."

"......" Song You didn't politely deny him, but only asked again, "When did the master become a monk?" ”

"The poor monk became a monk at the age of twenty-two."

"Twenty-two?"

This made Song You a little surprised.

Don't look at this monk who is a little powerless in the face of the demon plague, he often claims that his Taoism is shallow and his mana is low, but in fact, his Taoism is really not low, and many cultivators Song You has met are not as good as him.

And whether it is easy to face the disease, although the Tao is also related, it also depends on whether you are proficient in this way.

"The poor monk was originally born in a large family, he was ignorant when he was young, and he was also a fool when he was young, and he did a lot of wrong things. The monk said, but his expression was very calm, and he smiled, "So it is much later to become a monk." ”

"Knowing that mistakes can be corrected, and good is great."

"The poor monk thinks so too." Although the monk was tired, his voice was very calm, "This life is already like this, it cannot be changed, then you will do more good deeds, and I only hope that in the next life, when you get Bodhi, your body will be like glass, clear inside and outside, pure and unblemished, and upright." ”

"Where does the master go after that?"

"There are not only people in the city, most of the people are still outside the city, and now the poor monks have done their best in the city, and it is time to go outside the city." The monk said, paused for a moment, and then said, "Although the epidemic outside the city is not as serious as that in the city, it will be much more difficult for the people outside the city to get treatment than in the city. ”

"That's ......"

Song You nodded, continued to walk forward, and after a while, he said: "The master's curse to relieve disasters is quite profound, and it is only used once a day at most, if you use it too much, I am afraid that it will hurt Gen Yuan." ”

The monk smiled slightly, very calmly, and still replied in a Buddhist language:

"The poor monk once heard that there are flowers in front of the Buddha, famous and famous, a thousand years of buds, a thousand years of buds, a thousand years of flowers, a snap of a finger to thank, an instant of beauty, but can amaze the world."

“……”

Song You listened, but he didn't say anything.

At this moment, a shout came from behind him.

"Sir! Guru! ”

The group stopped, looked back, and saw the official named Jin Er running towards him.
