Chapter Twenty-Four: Sun Simiao's Saving the Tiger Turns Out to Be True!
"Old Sun, I've always had a question for you."
Xu Fenglei said while picking up the weeds.
"Say." Sun Simiao looked around, his sharp gaze not letting go of any of the available medicinal herbs.
"According to folk rumors, you once treated a tiger in Qinling, and the tiger did not hurt you but respected you."
Xu Fenglei said curiously,
"After that, as soon as you enter the Qinling Mountains, there will be a tiger to protect the law, and a hundred poisons cannot be approached, and fierce beasts dare not hurt them."
"That's the case."
Cha.
Sun Simiao broke off a herb in the bushes, and immediately carefully protected its roots and buried it again.
"That's the thing."
He shook the medicine basket and said casually,
"It should be more than ten years ago, the old man went into the Qinling Mountains to look for medicine, and met a tiger by chance, the old man was startled and wanted to go up the tree to hide, but when he saw that his legs were swollen and whimpered, he knew that it was poisoned."
Xu Fenglei's heart moved.
Is there really such a thing?
He couldn't help but prick up his ears and listen.
I only heard Sun Simiao say again:
"When the old man saw that it was pleading with eyes, and he couldn't bear to see death and not save it, he scolded it loudly, telling it not to hurt me, and I could treat it."
"Then the old man risked his life to check it out, and it really didn't hurt me, so I let me check it, so I knew that it was the venom of the pit viper."
"The old man plucked the snake venom for it, applied herbs to its affected area, and bandaged it again, and the tiger regained its mobility, and suddenly burst out and disappeared in a few jumps."
Xu Fenglei's eyes widened.
"Just gone?" He said, "Didn't repay the favor or anything? ”
Sun Simiao couldn't help but roll his eyes.
"What do you want? Livestock are animals, they don't understand human nature, and they don't know etiquette, so it's good not to bite the old man! ”
He said angrily,
"It's not poisonous anymore, just use your brain to think about it, if it's really so powerful, you won't be hurt."
"I don't know who spread it, eighty percent of it was a boy brought by the old man back then...... It's really ruined! ”
Xu Fenglei: "......"
So that's what happened!
Saving the tiger is indeed saved, but the tigers who accompanied and protected them were made up by later generations, and the more they spread, the more evil they became, and finally became a myth and legend, and no one believed it.
This will damage Sun Simiao's glorious image.
After all, he is a true healer's benevolence, risking his life to save the tiger!
"I can't bear to see his death when I see his life, Sun Zhenren is really a great gentleman!"
Xu Fenglei couldn't help but give a thumbs up and praised,
"A role model for our generation!"
Sun Simiao heard this, but snorted lightly.
"Usually the old grandson, if he is happy, he will be a real person, and if he is unhappy, he will be an old cow, you ......"
His eyes were blazing,
"If you really take the old man as a model, why don't you worship under the old man, and the old man will teach you what he has learned all his life?"
"Your master's medical level should not be as good as the old man, right?"
Xu Fenglei smiled.
"Besides, next time......"
He said hesitantly,
"I can't afford what you've learned all my life, I'm afraid I won't be able to complete the task given to me by my master alone......"
"Harm, I really don't have any ambitions, why do you want me to help the world and the people......
When Sun Simiao heard this, he shook his head helplessly and continued to climb the mountain.
This kid's talent is really rare, and that's what his heart ......
It's infuriating!
"Eh, grandson, wait for me......"
Xu Fenglei kept up with the pace and said,
"Are there a lot of pit vipers here? How did you get rid of that tiger snake venom? What should we do if we get bitten? ”
Although he was unwilling to inherit Sun Simiao's mantle, he was quite interested in medicine, pestering the old grandson to ask questions.
Sun Simiao is naturally happy to teach:
"In the land of the Qinling Mountains, there is everything, there are many snakes, insects, rats and ants, poisonous things are endless, and pit vipers are naturally very common."
"Even the old man has almost been bitten, let alone those reckless beasts."
"As for the tiger's snake venom, the old man used ......"
He was about to teach, but faintly heard a painful wail from ahead:
"Ugh, aw......"
"Save ...... Help, who can save me, who ......"
"Ugh yo ......"
The old and young looked moved, and quickly stepped forward, but saw a farmer under the giant tree in front of him, his face was pale, his lips were purple, and he was covering the soles of his feet and wailing.
At his feet, there was a dead snake that had turned its belly upside down.
"Pit viper."
Sun Simiao glanced at it, determined its variety, quickly stepped forward to support the farmer, and handed the water bladder in front of him.
"Old lady, old lady help me......"
The farmer drank the clear water, and his face recovered a little, but he still said with a painful face,
"I can't move, I've been bitten by this beast, it hurts......"
"I'm dying......"
Sun Simiao saw that he was sweating and looking desperate, and said:
"Don't panic! I'm Langzhong, you snake venom can still be saved, don't give up on yourself. ”
"Come, show me your feet."
Xu Fenglei also quickly squatted down and carefully observed the soles of his feet.
I saw that the ankle had swelled into a large pustule, and the two pitch-black holes on it were like jacks, and the purple-black blood stains under the holes had dried up.
Obviously, this person has been bitten by the snake for a while, and if it weren't for the two of them just getting here, I'm afraid they would have to wait for death.
"You're Lang Zhong?" There was a hint of hope in the farmer's eyes, dispelling some despair.
"Well, some save, some save."
Sun Simiao untied the medicine bag and opened one of the bamboo boxes. I saw a few live bugs writhing inside.
"Leeches?" Xu Fenglei said in surprise, "You still have this thing with you?" ”
"This thing is good."
Sun Simiao smiled and pinched out a leech. He placed it in the farmer's area.
As soon as the leech was attached to its ankle, it was like a gluttonous person seeing a delicacy, and refused to move anything, and firmly attached itself to its foot.
His body swelled up at a speed visible to the naked eye, and the pus on his feet quickly deflated.
Syllable!
The extremely obese leech couldn't suck it, fell off the instep of his foot and fell to the ground.
Flipping it over again, motionless, dead.
"It's really gluttonous, and it's going to be held to death."
Xu Fenglei pressed its corpse and said in amazement.
"It can't be sustained, it's poisoned."
Sun Simiao took out another leech, concocted it in the same way, and then said,
"This worm loves rot first, and blood secondly, this time there are both, how can you not be greedy?"
"If the poisonous blood pus is inhaled into the abdomen, how can you not die?"
"If it can save someone's life, it can be regarded as its merit."
Xu Fenglei: "......"
Do you want to say next - the leeches know underground, and it's too late to be grateful?
While he was thinking about it, the second leech was strangled to death by the poisonous blood and fell into the grass.
Sun Simiao used three leeches in a row, and finally sucked up the poisonous blood pus at the farmer's ankle.
Except for those two blood holes, which were still shocking, they were already restored as before!
However, the treatment is far from over......
