Chapter 77: Demonstration
Chapter 77: Showing the Magical Hand
This squeaking sound was not made by a snake demon, but came from Chen Wanrong's mouth. It doesn't require superb squeaking skills. It's personal, and there is no difficulty at all.
The reason why Chen Wanrong did this was because they had a deep superstitious belief in gods and magic, and they did not scare them to be cruel enough, so it was difficult to guarantee that they would not repeat the same mistakes in the future. The snake head appeared on the paper, and Sun Zhengping and his wife had already preconceived ideas and were frightened. Besides, Chen Wanrong's performance would appear vividly, which was no different from the appearance of a snake demon, and it would not be possible to be scared.
The couple's faces changed color and they couldn't stand. If they were scared, they might get sick. Chen Wanrong stopped when he saw that he was cured, stopped imitating the snake roar, walked up to them and asked, "Shopkeeper Sun, do you still believe in the snake demon now?"
Sun Zhengping did not say anything, looked at the snake head on the paper for a while, and said hatefully: "I will burn it to death!" He vented his resentment on the painting. Moving the incense head in his hand, the snake body appeared bit by bit. After a while, a complete red snake appeared on the paper.
His painting skills are not very good, similar to those of beginners, but the snake shape is still clearly visible. Looking at the snake shape, the couple was speechless, with a look of grief and anger on their faces. Suddenly, Mrs. Sun shouted: "Son! A miserable son!" She rushed towards the bed like crazy.
The screams were shrill, and the heartbroken. Chen Wanrong couldn't bear to hear them. He hurriedly grabbed her and comforted her, "Aunt, don't be anxious first. We have to find a way to take out the needle."
Sun Zhengping, Madam Sun, knelt in front of Chen Wanrong with a loud bang, and knocked her head loudly: "Boss, please give up your hands and save the dog!"
"Boss, please save Quan'er! Our Sun family is a cow and a horse to repay your great kindness!" Mrs. Sun kowtowed while begging. Sun Zhengping's son was called Sun Dongquan, so she was called Quan'er.
Chen Wanrong hurriedly went to the side. Before he could speak, the couple immediately moved and kowtowed to Chen Wanrong again. Chen Wanrong did not escape after dodging several times, so he had to stand down and stomp his feet, and his tone increased a lot: "You are just trying to do this, how can you save him?"
It is important to thank you for your kindness, but it is even more important to save your beloved son's life. When the couple heard this, they knocked their heads twice and stood up happily, as if the person who fell into the water grabbed the straw.
Chen Wanrong had to tell the truth: "I don't know how to use this medicine and stone technique..."
"Boss..." Sun Zhengping and his wife's joy disappeared, and they looked disappointed and shouted in unison: "What should I do?" They had no idea at all.
It’s not their fault. Anyone who is in this situation will be panic. After all, it is their own flesh and blood. If you don’t care, you will be over, and if you care, you will be confused!
"Don't be anxious, don't be anxious!" Chen Wanrong comforted them and said quickly: "I don't know, it's not that others don't know, we can go and invite a doctor." The reason why he said it very quickly was because he was afraid that they would be too anxious and interrupted.
This was a good idea. Sun Zhengping slapped his forehead and arranged it: "Woman, you guard Quan'er, I'll go and invite the doctor. No matter what, you must invite them. Tell them not to be busy. It's so shitty god, a big fucking liar!" After that, he was very angry. It was not because he felt sorry for Yinzi, but because he felt sorry for his beloved son.
While making arrangements, Sun Zhengping looked at his son lovingly, and was extremely reluctant to leave. Chen Wanrong is his boss, and he cannot stand by when encountering this. Apart from this relationship, Chen Wanrong cannot stay out of the matter, and should do some effort: "Shopkeeper Sun, you are at home, I'll go and invite a doctor."
"Boss, how did this happen?" The couple opposed in unison.
Chen Wanrong could understand their feelings, but now it is not the time to say this, and said, "You are at home, first, look at the son of the son, and second, set up the house, and still have to greet the one named Liu happily."
Sun Zhengping must have listened to Chen Wanrong in other matters, but he strongly opposed it: "Boss, I will listen to you in other matters, this matter is not OK! I must kill him!"
"You hate him, I know. But if you don't do this, how can we capture him? Let me tell you clearly. At first, I knew you were fooled by hearing what you said. The reason why I didn't expose it was because even if I said it, you wouldn't believe it. Besides, if you don't feel sorry for a few thousand taels of silver, I feel sorry for you. That's how you sold a winery and pieced it together. Grab the person named Liu and get the money back, and this hatred will disappear!" Chen Wanrong analyzed.
If this is true, it would be better. Sun Zhengping nodded and said, "I'll listen to my boss!"
"You guys watch at home. I'll go and come back soon." Chen Wanrong turned around and went out. The couple hurriedly chased after him. The servant led the blue and white porcelain, and Chen Wanrong flew onto a horse and galloped away.
Looking at Chen Wanrong's back, the couple cried in unison. Sun Zhengping said gratefully: "It is a blessing we have cultivated for eight lives to meet a good person like our boss! Even if we are a cow and a horse for you, I am willing!"
Mrs. Sun nodded and kept wiping her tears. It was not until Chen Wanrong disappeared that the couple entered the house to work.
Chen Wanrong thought to go to Ning County first. If no one can get it in Ning County, then go to Chang'an. No matter how much money you spend is, it is not a problem, even if you carry it in a sedan chair, you have to carry it.
This matter is of great importance, and Chen Wanrong was also very anxious and rushed to Ning County in a hurry. After a while, he arrived in Ning County. After entering the city, there was a "Huichun Hall" not far away. Chen Wanrong rode over, jumped off the horse's back, and quickly walked in to take a look. He saw a doctor leaning on a chair and dozing off.
Chen Wanrong coughed, and the doctor woke up from his dream, rubbed his eyes, and asked slowly: "Do you want to see a doctor or get medicine..."
"Can you get a needle inserted into your neck?" Thinking of the heartbroken look of Sun Zhengping and his wife, Chen Wanrong wanted to find a good doctor now and get things done without going around the circle and heading straight to the point.
The doctor still looked slow: "You are joking, who is inserting needles on the back of your neck? Don't think of these whimsical things. I don't have any other skills. I can still get through this. I can take medicine to cure the disease!"
Chen Wanrong was upset when he heard his salesmanship and asked bluntly: "Can you get it?"
"Didn't I tell you that you don't think about those evil things!" The doctor did not express his opinion, but instead criticized Chen Wanrong.
It is common sense to insert a needle on the back of the neck, and it is normal for him not to believe it. But now Chen Wanrong is not in the mood to explain it to him, and he only wants a result, whether it can or not. He wished he could give him a big mouth, turned around and went out, and the doctor kept him: "You are really, you haven't finished speaking yet, why are you leaving? Come back soon! You have to diagnose it before you can take medicine!"
Chen Wanrong would not go back, so he flew on his horse and headed straight to the county government. As the parents of Ning County, Shen Que was very familiar with Ning County. He asked him, which was much easier than going around himself.
When he arrived at the county government office, the on-duty official asked, "Do you have any wronged?"
Chen Wanrong threw the reins to a commissioner and ran away: "I want to see Lord Shen."
"Stop, you can't see Lord Shen." A man hurriedly stopped him. It turned out that he was not the man who Chen Wanrong invited them to drink that day, otherwise he would not have blocked the way.
Chen Wanrong pushed him and said in an unquestionable tone: "I say you can see me!" He ran straight to the side hall, and the officer chased after him from behind and shouted: "Stop! Hurry up and catch him!"
When he ran to the side hall, Chen Wanrong rushed in directly, but saw that Chen Qi was still handling official duties on the last case, and was still as untidy as he was dressed. He strides over and came to Chen Qi, and said, "Mr. Shen, I have something to look for you."
Chen Que raised his head and saw that it was Chen Wanrong and smiled and said, "Brother Wanrong, what's wrong with you?"
The messenger hurriedly followed up and reported to Chen Que: "Sir, he broke in without reporting..." Before he finished speaking, Chen Que waved his hand and said, "Go down. There is nothing you have to do here." The messenger was stunned, looked at Chen Wanrong, responded and retreated.
"Brother Wanrong, I have prepared a pot of good tea, let's go and taste it." Chen Qie stood up and pulled Chen Wanrong away.
After leaving the side hall, after passing a few rooms, Chen Qie pushed open the door and went in directly. After Chen Wanrong entered, he closed the door and asked directly: "Brother Wanrong, tell me, what's the point of finding me in such a hurry?"
"Mr. Shen, I'm here to ask you for help." Chen Wanrong didn't go around the circle and talked about the journey of the Sun family.
Chen Que's eyes widened: "There is such a despicable thing! This is Gan Tianhe!"
Chen Wanrong now ignored his anger and said it: "I think Lord Shen knows more about Ning County. Can you help find a doctor with good medical skills and take out the needle."
Chen Que touched his beard and pondered for a moment, saying, "I will not hide it from Brother Wanrong. Chen knows a little about the technique of medicine and stone. If Brother Wanrong can trust me, I will go there."
He spoke very modestly and had a sense of confidence. Chen Wanrong believed that he was not the kind of person who was swollen and fat. He heard this and said happily: "Then it will be a blessing for Lord Shen." No matter who he is, as long as he can save people, Chen Wanrong didn't need to pretend to be nice words.
"Brother Wanrong, you wait a while and I'll go clean up." Chen Que stepped out of the house.
Chen Wanrong breathed a sigh of relief and then sat on the chair to rest. His tense mood was relieved and he became much more relaxed.
Chen Wanrong thought of Zheng Qing. It is true that Zheng Qing understood Qihuang's technique, but after all, she did not treat many people. She was not experienced enough and dared not try each other easily. It is obvious that the person who started is a master and blocked the nervous system. If it is not good, it will damage the nerves and leave sequelae. How dare you ask Zheng Qing to try it?
Unexpectedly, Chen Wanrong was relieved and leaned on the back of the chair, feeling particularly comfortable.
While he was resting, Chen Qi walked in and said, "Brother Wanrong, let's go!"
When Chen Wanrong looked at it, he saw Chen Que wearing a green hat and carrying a medicine bag. Those who were not sure that he would not have thought that he was a parent official in a county, but regarded him as a doctor who left the court.
Chen Que knew that Chen Wanrong was curious and explained: "Brother Wanrong didn't know that my ancestors opened a clinic. Although I became an official, I still know a little about the skills of this ancestor. I also accompanied my father to treat others when I was a child."
It turned out to be a family school student, no wonder he was even ready for his outfit. Chen Wanrong asked, and the two left together. He came to the county government office, took the reins from the official and flew onto the horse. Chen Que had his own mount, and the two rode out together.
After leaving the county government office, Chen Que looked at Chen Wanrong and reminded him: "Brother Wanrong, do you want to go back? I know that Manager Sun's house will be able to go by myself."
All of them have arrived here, and I can't help but go home to say hello. However, the look of Sun Zhengping and his wife's eagerness lingered in Chen Wanrong's heart. How dare you hold it for a moment and said, "No need. Let's go now."
Chen Que stroked his beard and smiled and said, "I didn't expect that Brother Wanrong is still a kind-hearted person in ancient times. He is more anxious than caring about family affairs. OK!" He slapped his horse and ran away.
It’s not that I don’t want to go back and see, especially Zheng Qing is the person Chen Wanrong wants to see the most. It’s just because the situation is forced to do so. Unexpectedly, he actually got praise from him. Chen Wanrong smiled and said, “Mr. Shen is over, this is what I should do!” He followed up.
Chen Wanrong was also anxious and rushed to the horse. Chen Que didn't ask. The two of them rushed to the Sun's house in silence. From a distance, they saw Sun Zhengping and his wife standing at the door with long necks. When they saw Chen Wanrong, they ran and rushed over.
Looking at their anxious look, Chen Wanrong secretly thanked that he had not gone home to check in, otherwise the couple would not know what they were anxious about.
Sun Zhengping grabbed Chen Wanrong's hand and cried with joy: "Boss, you are our great benefactor! Please accept my bow!" He bent his knees and knelt down and kowtowed again.
Chen Wanrong hurriedly held him and said, "Shopkeeper Sun, don't. Please see Lord Shen quickly."
Chen Que dressed as a doctor in the side. Sun Zhengping didn't look carefully. He thought he was just a doctor. After hearing this, he saw that no one could be the county magistrate? He hurriedly bowed to the ground and said, "I've seen Lord Shen!" The boss's question appeared in his heart, "I want a doctor, not an official, what's the use of you? It's just because of politeness, I didn't say it.
Mrs. Sun also came to see the ceremony, and Chen Que stopped him and said, "It's okay, it's okay. It's important to save people. You don't have to waste time on these common rituals." Even Sun Zhengping didn't say the doubts in his heart, Chen Que could guess and explained to him: "Shopkeeper Sun didn't know that Chen's ancestors opened a clinic. When he was a teenager, I followed my father to help others treat diseases. I dare not say that this medical skills are good, but I still know a little bit."
So that's how it was. Sun Zhengping breathed a sigh of relief and said happily: "Mr. Shen, boss, please!" He let the two of them into the house and urged the servants to serve tea.
Chen Wanrong was running back and forth, and he was really thirsty, so it was just right to drink some tea. However, Chen Que declined: "Shopkeeper Sun, save people first. Don't hurry to drink tea, and you will never die of thirst."
Although it was a common saying, it fully revealed the character of a good official, and Chen Wanrong respected Chen Que three more points.
Compared with the life of a beloved son, there is no need to say who is less or more. For the life of a beloved son, he is rude and rude. Sun Zhengping didn't say much and hurriedly said: "Mr. Shen, please follow me!" He led the way.
Chen Wanrong and Shen Que followed the couple to the ward. This was Chen Wanrong's second entry, and the arrangement in the ward was no longer surprising. Chen Que looked around the room and said hatefully: "Shopkeeper Sun, how many Taoist monks have you hired? If you get sick, you have to be treated, instead of doing these divine and magical things."
This is very reasonable, but it is not appropriate. In the Tang Dynasty, alchemists were rampant, from the emperor to the common people, all respected as gods. It was normal for Sun Zhengping and others to ask alchemists to make some superstition.
How many people could have such insights as Chen Que in the entire Tang Dynasty? Chen Wanrong had a little more favorable impression of Chen Que.
Sun Zhengping said in response: "Yes, yes, yes, Lord Shen said, Caomin will never dare to do it again!"
Chen Que didn't have the mood to pay attention to him, so he strode to the bed. Sun Zhengping and Chen Wanrong helped him move Sun Dongquan, let him lie on his side, and his back to Chen Que.
After looking at the red spots for a while, Chen Qi nodded and said, "The person who started is trying to cheat money, but he doesn't want his life. He should use an iron needle and can be taken out with a magnet."
This analysis makes sense. Magnets can absorb iron, but cannot absorb gold and silver. If gold or silver needles are used, it will not be possible to obtain them in the Tang Dynasty without surgery. If they cannot be taken out and killed, it will be inconsistent with the title of "living god", and their reputation will be greatly affected, and it will be much more difficult to cheat again in the future.
After hearing this, Sun Zhengping secretly breathed a sigh of relief. If he hadn't been afraid of delaying the rescue, he would have knelt down again. Mrs. Sun looked at Chen Que nervously, and looked at her beloved son, but she didn't make a sound urging.
Chen Qi opened the medicine sac, took out the magnet, and looked at the red spots. This action seemed simple, but Chen Qi looked solemn. In a short while, sweat oozed out of his forehead.
