"What? I'm going to die soon after taking Doctor Xue's medicine..."
"How is this possible? Could it be that even fairy water cannot cure the epidemic?"
The people looked at each other, and there was a feeling of uneasiness spreading among them.
It is just a rumor that fairy water can cure epidemics. After all, only a few people have witnessed the efficacy of fairy water.
In the county government office, Magistrate Chai's expression became serious. After some hesitation, he ordered his subordinates to send him to the western suburbs so that he could see the situation in person.
This matter is of great importance and goes beyond the case itself.
If the fairy water can cure the plague, it will not only save a group of people, but also give him a chance of promotion in his official career that has been going on for several years.
As a county magistrate, it is a very risky behavior to come into contact with patients with the epidemic.
However, Magistrate Chai made up his mind and walked quickly to the west city regardless of the objections of his master and other officials.
As soon as the county magistrate left, Doctor Xue couldn't bear it anymore. He called his little granddaughter who was accompanying him and wanted to see the specific situation.
…
At the patient's home in the western suburbs, two brothers slept under the same shed.
An hour has passed since the two of them took the medicine.
Both brothers were seriously ill and it was estimated that they would not last more than two days.
The two brothers were chosen to test the medicine mainly because their condition was critical. No matter whose medicine it was, as long as it could cure the person, it was always a good thing.
Now, my brother in the same room is already lying on the bed. Although he is extremely weak, his complexion is much better than an hour ago.
The orphaned mother at home did not look happy because her son was getting better. Instead, she cried and was at a loss what to do.
All because the eldest son in the same room was dying, his breathing was quick and slow, and he even had no strength to speak.
Several county government officials were guarding the outside, monitoring the patient's condition in order to ensure that the result was absolutely fair.
The yamen servant who had delivered the message had not yet returned, and he saw that his brother inside was dying.
The child's mother knew that the medicine taken by her younger brother was obviously more effective, so she suddenly thought of a way and begged the government servant to give the remaining medicine to her eldest son.
However, the government officials did not dare to make decisions privately and had to wait for the county magistrate to speak.
In order to save her son, the orphan mother tried her best to grab it, but was knocked to the ground by the government officer.
For a time, the people who stayed behind in the western suburbs gathered around and started talking.
The situation was extremely out of control, and Magistrate Chai arrived late with a group of people.
…
Although Bai Song left first, the accompanying government officials knew that the grand master wanted to inspect the area in person, so they dragged Bai Song away and made sure to walk behind the county grand master.
Bai Song could only worry. Although these people kept shouting that human life was at stake, who really cared about the life and death of others?
When malaria breaks out, the patient will die if he cannot breathe. Even if the patient cannot be cured, as long as he is rescued properly, he can have a glimmer of hope.
But these people don't care at all. They only care about the results and who created the fairy water.
When Magistrate Chai County arrived, the patient's home was already in chaos. There were people outside pointing and pointing, and traces of fighting could be seen everywhere.
"what's the situation?"
Magistrate Chai asked with a frown.
The yamen servant, whose face was covered with scratches, told with a dark face how the woman had snatched the soup and medicine.
Before this person could finish speaking, a colleague on the side interrupted angrily: "That is simply a shrew. She even risked her life to grab the medicine! There are so many county people watching outside, and the villain can't stop it. The immortal arranged by the Taoist priest
The water had been snatched away by the woman and given to the dying brother."
Magistrate Chai frowned: "What exactly is the situation?"
"Taoist Master's medicine saved my brother, but Doctor Xue's medicine failed to save my brother."
This is not just what the government officials said. The neighbors are concerned about the condition of the two patients.
The situations of the two brothers are completely different, which touches people's hearts.
Everyone knows whose fairy water is effective.
Doctor Xue was among the team. After hearing this, he immediately stood up.
Until now, he refused to back down.
Today's matter is related to the rise and fall of the family. From the moment he stood in front of others, there was no way out.
"Wait a minute! Since the elder brother has already taken the Taoist priest's medicine, let's see if the Taoist priest's medicine can save his brother from danger. If Laochan's medicine is ineffective, but Taoist priest's medicine is effective, then Laochan will take it wholeheartedly.
"
Everyone knows that it takes an hour for the fairy water to take effect.
If Doctor Xue said this, wouldn't it mean we have to wait another hour?
Everyone can wait, but the patient cannot wait.
As far as my brother's condition is concerned, he is probably going to die before the magic water takes effect.
Bai Song knew this in his heart.
But the surrounding people and county magistrates didn't know.
Bai Song secretly scolded this old man for being cunning and cunning.
At this moment, the woman inside ran out crying. She was already injured due to fighting with the government officials earlier, but now she rushed to Magistrate Chai regardless and knelt down on the ground.
"Sir, please save my child, my child is dying!"
Magistrate Chai frowned and looked at Divine Doctor Xue: "Doctor Xue, look..."
Doctor Xue spread his hands: "Your Excellency, you have also seen that it is not that Lao Cheng's medicine is not effective, but that the patients inside are extremely ill and difficult to be cured by gods. The Taoist Priest's medicine is just an improvement on Lao Cheng's medicine, and Lao Cheng's medicine cannot be cured.
, his medicine can’t cure it either.”
Bai Song glanced at the old guy, sneered, and directly put the flag that read "Professional Anti-Counterfeiting" in front of Divine Doctor Xue: "Old guy, you have to watch it. Today I will ask you to see what medical skills are."
After saying that, Bai Song went straight into the room, came to the dying patient, and took out a prepared pair of silver needles.
"What is that Taoist priest going to do?"
When people outside saw Bai Song entering the shed, they all came closer to take a look.
There is not much space inside the shed, and Bai Song's movements can be seen even outside the house.
When Bai Song took out a pair of silver needles and prepared to give the patient acupuncture, people outside were a little confused.
In the hearts of the people, as a Taoist priest, Bai Song, shouldn't he be the one who opened the altar? How can he start acupuncture like a doctor? This is an epidemic, and countless famous doctors are helpless. If Doctor Xue can't cure it, only Taoist mysticism can probably cure it.
effective.
Seeing the use of needles in the Bai Song Dynasty, the people were disappointed and felt that this method would not work.
Doctor Xue got closer. Seeing this man using needles, he thought of the master who used acupuncture to save Miss Lin's life.
As soon as he thought about it, Doctor Xue's expression became serious.
The granddaughter of the Xue family accompanied me all the way and rarely spoke.
She originally disdained this Taoist priest, and decided that this Taoist priest had just listened to her grandfather's recipe, so she dared to come out and make a fuss.
It can be seen that grandpa showed such a serious expression, and suddenly wondered in his heart: "Grandpa, the epidemic is a disease for which there is no cure, can it be cured by just acupuncture?"
Doctor Xue did not answer, but just looked at Bai Song, who was getting closer and closer.
Doctor Xue wants to know what kind of magical acupuncture skills this person has? Is it possible that he can really bring people back to life?
When he saw it, his face immediately relaxed.
"I thought I was some kind of expert, but it turns out it's just some basic skills to smooth the flow of energy. Taoist priest, let me tell you the truth, your method is just to force his life and only increase the patient's pain. No matter how much you delay, it will still be delayed."
It only lasts an hour. In my opinion, it’s better to let people enjoy it.”
Everyone was paying attention to Bai Song's injection, but they didn't notice that he quietly put away a syringe during the process.
Acupuncture is just a cover, but it is some Qi-soothing physical therapy.
The real trump card was the one I picked up in my dream last night - artemisinin!
It is not artemisia annua that can treat malaria, but artemisinin extracted from artemisia annua.
This is a hundred times more effective than Qinghao Decoction.
With one dose of artemisinin, treating malaria is as easy as treating colds.
It's just that the process of refining artemisinin is very complicated, and even in another thousand years, Chinese medical technology will not be able to complete it.
Qinghao Decoction, recorded in ancient Chinese medicine, can treat mild cases of malaria.
For people with serious illness, Qinghao Decoction will have little effect.
Fortunately, there is a mysterious space, and I exchanged the remaining energy for a tube of artemisinin.
Even if Doctor Xue had the power of a demon and could perfectly replicate the Bai Song's Qinghao Decoction with just one taste, he would not be able to cure a seriously ill person.
In less than a quarter of an hour, Bai Song closed the needle.
He walked out of the shed with his head held high, looked at the sky, and said proudly: "Before dusk, the patient will be as relieved as ever!"
"Before dusk?"
Everyone was shocked.
He said that it took three or four hours to review the case at noon, make the medicine, and test the medicine, and there were many delays in the process. At dusk, it was only half a stick of incense.
It takes half a stick of incense to make an epidemic patient whose life hangs by a thread feel as good as ever?
What kind of big joke is this?
"I think this Taoist priest needs to cure his hysteria first."
"Could this Taoist priest be a lunatic? Does he know the purpose of what he says and does?"
"Such a simple case was delayed for half a day by this person's appearance. Could he be here to cause trouble?"
"If you deliberately cause trouble, even if the county magistrate is willing to bypass him, we can't bypass him!"
There was a lot of discussion outside, but Magistrate Chai's face darkened.
"Taoist Priest, do you know what the crime of disturbing the court is?"
"Sir, it only takes a moment. Whether I am talking nonsense or not will be revealed later."
After these words, Magistrate Chai was unable to say anything more and could only stand aside with a cold eye.
"Old man Xue, let me ask you again, whose recipe for the fairy water belongs to you?"
"Hmph!" Doctor Xue flicked his sleeves and looked disdainfully at Bai Song.
"Is it worth it when I get older and lose my reputation for a lifetime?"
"Stinky Taoist priest, stop pretending!" Dr. Xue didn't say anything, but the little granddaughter on the side couldn't help but retorted in a low voice, "You just used simple acupuncture before, and you didn't use any new medicine. It won't help the patient at all."
"Hey, does this little girl know anything about acupuncture? Don't learn it from your grandpa, or you may end up with bad mental and physical skills after learning it!"
"you!"
The little girl's face turned red with anger and she continued to argue.
Suddenly, a cry came from the room: "Ada, are you awake?!"
"Sir, my son is awake! My son is awake!"
The woman's shout was like a boulder falling into the Mirror Lake, with a loud bang, and the roar of the crowd erupted in exclamations of surprise.
"woke up?"
"How can it be?"
"What a joke!"
Magistrate Chai's expression changed drastically and he rushed straight into the shed. He was dumbfounded as he looked at the patient who was gradually waking up!
The woman rushed out of the house and knelt directly in front of Bai Song: "Taoist Master is really a living god!"
After that, everyone was cut off on the spot and the cry was loud.
At this time, there was just a touch of dim yellow falling, like a dream...
