Chapter 16 Pulse Diagnosis

"Don't dare, don't dare" Doctor Xiao shook his head again and again, bent down respectfully and replied, "The eldest lady sits, the little old lady is standing, how can you be on an equal footing with the eldest lady!" said and glanced at the long wooden stool where Feng Yin was sitting, and explained a little apologetically, "The eldest lady is here, she should have taken a seat and served well, but the little old lady is shabby here, and the eldest lady has really been wronged." ”

Feng Yin became more and more cramped when he heard what he said, and wanted to say something, but his mouth opened a few times but he still didn't know what to say, so he could only turn his head and look at Wen Shuo behind him.

Wen Shuo shook his head and sighed, "Grandpa, what are you doing here!" stepped forward and grabbed Doctor Xiao's arm, and explained while guiding him to the seat behind him, "Feng Yin doesn't have so many rules at home, you are going to scare her like this, you better sit down, just like usual." ”

Doctor Xiao was carried by Wen Shuo's strength, and his body was about to touch the stool, but he still resisted and wanted to stand up, looked at Wen Shuo with some reproach, shook his head and said, "How can this be, no, no!"

Wen Shuo didn't force any more efforts, just looked at him and said, "Grandpa, we are here today for business, you have been standing, we are not negotiable!"

Feng Yin listened to the word "Miss" coming out of his mouth, and felt uncomfortable for a while, but he still nodded according to his meaning, and gently spit out a sentence, "Yes, you... You might as well sit down. ”

"This," Doctor Xiao hesitated and glanced at Feng Yin, and then at Wen Shuo. Wen Shuo immediately grabbed him and gently "pushed" him onto the stool, "Look, the young lady has spoken, just sit down!"

Only then did the doctor sit back on the stool steadily, but he still straightened his back a little stiffly.

Wen Shuo returned to Feng Yin's side and sat on the bench, looking at the appearance of the doctor, he couldn't help laughing, "Grandpa, you are so abnormal today, how can you look like you have met the emperor!"

When Doctor Xiao heard this, his face immediately changed, and he reprimanded, "The stinky boy is getting bigger and smaller, how dare you make this joke!"

Wen Shuo's smile still didn't go away, and he replied, "Who made you so nervous." Feng Yin is just a little girl, do you have so many courtesies?"

"You kid!" said the doctor glaring at him, "Don't think that being close to the eldest lady can be rude." The eldest lady is the eldest lady of the General's Mansion, and she must be treated with courtesy at all times, and the number of courtesies is not too comprehensive, this is not only the number of courtesies to the eldest lady, but also the number of courtesies to the entire General's Mansion. ”

Wen Shuo was puzzled when he heard this, and asked, "Grandpa, listening to your tone, is it possible, what kind of favor have you received from the General's Mansion?"

Doctor Xiao looked at him, sighed and shook his head, and said, "It's not just me who has received the favor of the General's Mansion, but all the people of our Shawu Town have received the favor of the General's Mansion. ”

"All of them have received the favor of the General's Mansion?"

Doctor Xiao looked at Feng Yin, but his eyes were scattered, as if he was looking into the distance through Feng Yin, "You children naturally don't understand, but I still remember, remember what Sand House Town was like when the demons invaded. ”

Feng Yin suddenly felt a spirit, "Demon invasion?"

Hearing the sound of the wind, Doctor Xiao suddenly came back to his senses, laughed, and said, "But that was a long time ago. That year, it was all thanks to General Wu and a strange army to kill the demon leader who came out of the cave, so that all the demons could be wiped out and Shawu Town was saved. Otherwise, how can we have a peaceful life now. As he spoke, he looked at Wen Shuo and said, "Without the guards of the General's Mansion, how can there be peace in Shawu Town." Do you say that the people of our Shawu Town have been blessed by the General's Mansion all these years?"

Wen Shuo's face became serious, and he nodded solemnly, "Yes, of course it is." ”

Feng Yin secretly exclaimed, it turned out that the General's Mansion was actually such a status in the hearts of the people of Shawu Town.

Doctor Xiao smiled again and looked at the wind and said, "Coincidentally, I also did my best with my master in the old general's barracks that year, and I was also fated with the eldest lady. ”

Feng Yin didn't know how to answer, and the veiled face pulled helplessly, revealing a wry smile on the corner of his mouth, and then lowered his head.

Wen Shuo didn't know about these old things, but he wasn't interested in them, he hadn't forgotten the purpose of coming here today.

"Grandpa, let's not talk about this for now, I brought Fengyin to you today, in fact, I want to ask you for a favor!"

Hearing this, the doctor shook his head and said with a smile: "You want to ask me for help and I still believe in something, but where can the eldest lady be useful to me as a bad old man." ”

Wen Shuo didn't say much anymore, and said with Guan Zi: "Then you take the pulse for Feng Yin first, and then I'll tell you what I want you to help with." ”

Doctor Xiao was a little incredulous when he heard this at first, and he had always heard that the eldest lady of the General's Mansion was in extremely poor health, and she kept taking medicine all year round, which had been diagnosed and treated by Mr. Ji. Mr. Ji's medical skills are superb, but he was a person who treated His Majesty the Emperor back then, and he could never be compared with Mr. Ji, how could Wen Shuo want to let himself, a local doctor, take the pulse of the eldest lady?

Thinking of this, Mr. Ji hesitated, "This ......"

Wen Shuo looked at the doctor's appearance, and guessed a little bit of his thoughts, but he didn't explain much, only said: "Grandpa, you are a doctor." This wind is coming, you can't just let her go like this without looking at it, right?"

Doctor Xiao looked at the wind chanting sitting upright, pondered for a moment and looked serious, and said respectfully: "Since this is the case, the little old man will not shirk, and he will return the fate with the general's mansion." ”

Feng Yin nodded, but then became nervous, closed his eyes and exhaled deeply.

Doctor Xiao straightened up, put his right hand on the table, and said, "Miss, why don't you take off this veil first, you must also know that this pulse does not rely on the pulse alone, but also depends on the complexion." ”

Feng Yin sighed in his heart when he heard this, and secretly said that it was not good, this veil would not be revealed as soon as he took off his eyes, this is not good. This veil must not be removed, and we have to think of a way to fool the past, but what way do we have to think of it?

Just as he was hesitating, Wen Shuo's voice sounded at the right time, and he frowned and waved his hand, "Grandpa, this can't be done." Feng Yin's face was burned when she was a child, and she had a big scar, but she was ugly, so she wore this, she never showed her face in front of outsiders, and even if you look at it, you definitely can't see any complexion!"

Feng Yin didn't expect him to use this kind of reason, he was angry for a while, and said that he was ugly, did he have to use this reason! So he couldn't help but slander: "You are ugly to death, you are much uglier than me!"

When the doctor heard this, he suddenly felt that he was speechless, but fortunately, the eldest lady did not have a big reaction, so he hurriedly said: "Then since this is the case, please put the eldest lady on the table with her right hand, so that the little old lady can take the pulse for the eldest lady." ”

Finally, at this time, Feng Yin paused for a moment before putting his right hand on the table, his upper body stiffened, and his heart jumped up with a "bang".

Doctor Xiao put his slender two fingers on Feng Yin's wrist, smiled as soon as he touched the pulse, and kindly instructed: "Miss, don't be nervous, just relax, if you are too nervous, it will affect the pulse." ”

Through the white veil, Wen Shuo felt the panicked look on Feng Yin's face, reached out and gently held Feng Yin's left hand hanging by his side, and said softly: "Don't be afraid. ”

Feng Yin tried his best to absorb the heat from Wen Shuo's hand, closed his eyes and took a few deep breaths to prevent himself from guessing, and after a while, the doctor stroked his gray beard and said, "Well, okay." ”

Doctor Xiao closed his eyes and carefully felt the pulse of the wind roaring, and Wen Shuo didn't even dare to take a deep breath, for fear of disturbing his diagnosis. For a long time, the whole room was silent, except for the sporadic "popping" sound of the charcoal exploding as the charcoal burned in the stove.

At first, there was no expression on Doctor Xiao's face, but after a while, he frowned as if he was puzzled, and after a while, he calmed down again, and after a while, he not only frowned, but also took a light breath, and added strength to the fingers that checked the pulse.

Feng Yin's heart went up and down with his expression, but he didn't open his eyes, and Feng Yin didn't dare to ask.

When he finally opened his eyes, Feng Yin was a little agitated, and looking at his expression, it seemed that his illness could not be cured even if he was afraid.

Wen Shuo was even more anxious, and asked urgently the moment the doctor opened his eyes, "How is it, is there anything abnormal about her pulse?"

Doctor Xiao glanced at Feng Yin deeply, with hesitation in his eyes, but he was really not sure.

After hesitating, he tentatively opened his mouth: "The eldest lady has hurt her muscles recently?"

Feng Yin nodded: "Yes, it was only a short time ago." ”

Doctor Xiao nodded, but lowered his eyes and said, "That's it." ”

Wen Shuo saw that his expression when he took the pulse was not so simple, it was clear that there was something else, so he asked, "Is that all?"

Doctor Xiao looked at Wen Shuo, and there was something in his eyes, but he didn't say it for a long time. Wen Shuo was anxious, grabbed Doctor Xiao's hand, and urged: "Grandpa, just say it, what else?"

Doctor Xiao turned his gaze to Feng Yin, as if he was puzzled, and said hesitantly, "The pulse of the eldest lady, at first glance, looks like a knot, the body is cold and the internal knot, the pulse is blocked, so the pulse comes slowly and stops, and the knot is weak, which is due to the cold qi stagnation, pulse qi blockage, and weak qi and blood." ”

Feng Yin didn't understand it all, but the general meaning was still understood, is the qi and blood weak, isn't this just a symptom of himself, he is very weak, and he can't do anything. I thought, is this no different from Mr. Ji's diagnosis, why the old man's expression?

Wen Shuo noticed the word "first look" in Dr. Xiao's words, since there is a first look, there must be a "hindsight", that is, it has not been said completely, it seems that you have to continue to ask. With a sigh in his heart, Wen Shuo secretly thought, I haven't seen him for a few years, how did this old man become so spitting now!

But he could only suppress his temper, and then asked, "What else?"

Doctor Xiao knew that Wen Shuo's kid was very smart and couldn't fool him easily, so he continued: "Under careful inspection, there are also images of thin veins, yin deficiency and loss cannot fill the veins, or what oppresses the veins, resulting in small veins and fragile meridians. ”

After listening to the last sentence, Feng Yin thought of his uncle's words, so he asked, "So I can't move vigorously, otherwise I will hurt my muscles and veins?"

Dr. Xiao did not hesitate this time, and replied: "Yes, if you force your luck or use too much force, you will damage your muscles and veins, and in serious cases, you will be worried about your life!"

Feng Yin nodded, and said to himself, "That's why you don't let me practice martial arts." ”

Wen Shuo understood what Doctor Xiao said, and there was no doubt about martial arts. But this problem is often pressed on the gourd and scooped, one after another, just like in Wen Shuo's mind now.

Wen Shuo came today to figure things out, but he didn't want to leave any more questions, so he asked again: "Then can she be cured of this disease? If so, how long will it take?"

Doctor Xiao really made a mistake this time, and the hesitation and confusion hidden in his eyes locked his mouth tightly like a rope, and he didn't open his mouth for a long time.

Knowing that Wen Shuo would not give up easily, he frowned and thought for a while before sighing and exhaling his words: "Dare to ask who is the person who diagnoses the pulse of the eldest lady on weekdays?"

Wen Shuo's eyes narrowed and he didn't answer immediately, but Feng Yin replied softly, "It's Mr. Ji Guqing." ”

Doctor Xiao's brows tightened, and he said in a deep voice: "Mr. Ji is a world-famous doctor, and even he can't cure the disease, what can I do as a local doctor." As he spoke, he breathed a sigh of relief as if he was embarrassed, and said helplessly, "This illness will not kill people, so let's slowly recuperate." ”

Wen Shuo didn't give up, and asked again: "How long does it have to be adjusted?

Doctor Xiao didn't speak, only sighed deeply.

Wind Moan's arm slid gently off the table, hanging limply to the side.

Although he has been taking medicine for four years, although he already knew that his body was seriously injured, and he might not be able to live like Wen Shuo in the future, he still had luck in his heart after all. But today, as soon as Dr. Xiao's diagnosis came out, it was undoubtedly a sentence for Feng Yin, a prisoner awaiting trial, and there was no room for maneuver.

The glimmer of hope that has been kept in my heart has finally been shattered, and no one can help but be sad, how can they not be sad.

Feng Yin sat there silently, not speaking. Quietly suppressed the sadness emanating from the bottom of her heart, but she endured it for a while, but after all, she still couldn't hold back, a tear slipped out of her eyes, flowed down her cheeks, and hit the back of Wen Shuo's hand holding the wind moaning with a "snap".

Wen Shuo withdrew his gaze from Doctor Xiao and looked at Feng Yin.

Feng Yin must be sad, I thought there would always be some turning point when I came out today, but I didn't expect this to be such a result. He gave her a glimmer of hope, but now he personally found someone to tear it off, but I am afraid that from now on, Feng Yin will only be more sad than before.

Wen Shuo was so remorseful that he couldn't do it, even if Feng Yin raised the bench under him and beat him at this time, he was willing to bear it, as long as she was angry, it was better than anything else. But she just sat in a daze, without even saying a word, which made Wen Shuo feel even more distressed.

Wen Shuo's heart was also messed up, and she didn't know how to coax her, so she stretched out her hand to lift the veil, gently wiped her tears, and comforted her in a panic: "Don't be sad, it's all my fault, I shouldn't have taken you out, it's all my suspicion that I'm looking for trouble, let's go back, don't cry......"

Given this kind of reply to the poor child, the doctor was also very uneasy in his heart, and he was even more guilty when he heard Wen Shuo say that she was crying, but he couldn't speak, so he could only look at the two children silently and sigh.

But at the moment when Wen Shuo lifted the veil of wind and groaning, Doctor Xiao saw a snow-white and smooth face without any scars and a pair of blood-red ...... Eyes, astonishment, indescribable astonishment! In the moment of astonishment, all doubts suddenly cleared up, and I secretly sighed in my heart, so it turned out that this was the case!

Feng Yin saw Wen Shuo's face and knew that he was no less sad than himself, but he was kind, and it was just that he was sad, so why add another person.

So he hurriedly reached out and wiped a few handfuls of tears, tried his best to pull out a smile, and said, "I'm fine, anyway, I already knew, what is the difference between what the fat doctor said and Mr. Ji's." Besides, I also agreed to come out today, what does it have to do with you. ”

As he spoke, he pulled down his veil to cover his face, and pretended to complain: "Let's go back quickly, I'm hungry." ”

Wen Shuo knew that she was stubborn, and her heart became more and more uncomfortable, but at this time, she couldn't say a word of comfort.

Since she didn't want to stay any longer, let's go. Wen Shuo took Feng Yin's hand and wanted to leave, but when he stood up, he thought that he hadn't paid the consultation fee yet, so he took out a few pieces of broken silver from his arms and put them on the table, and said to Dr. Xiao: "Grandpa, this is the consultation fee, let's go first." ”

Doctor Xiao looked at the silver and felt more and more uncomfortable, sighed, his lips were half-opened, and he stopped talking.

Feng Yin turned around as if he remembered something, bowed to the doctor, and said, "Old man, thank you for today's events, and the junior will leave." ”

Doctor Xiao looked at her and couldn't hold back, and asked: "Eldest lady needs to remember, if you want to die peacefully in this life, you must not practice martial arts, remember!"

Feng Yin lowered his head and said, "Yes, remember." ”

Dr. Xiao nodded slightly, closed his eyes, and when he opened his eyes again, he was already the only one in the room.

In the end, it was the benevolence of the doctor, Dr. Xiao felt guilty about his diagnosis today, stared at the door for a long time and did not return his gaze, and sighed: "The Wu family is a loyal and heroic family, I didn't expect to do such a disgraceful thing." Child, old decay can't help you, you can only ask for more blessings for yourself. ”

At this time, the two wooden doors were kicked open from the outside with a "bang", and a man in white stepped into the house in two steps, laughing and asking loudly: "What did the Wu family do, you can also tell me about it, old man." ”
