Fan Yuru, who was taking notes on the side, noticed that Shen Tianshu's tone became more and more calm, losing the eagerness and uncertainty at the beginning, and slowly began to reveal a hint of confidence.
He looked at what he had written down, but he had no idea what Shen Tianshu had learned from it.
Shen Tianshu changed the subject and asked, "Yang Lizheng, could I ask if anything happened to your brother before the eighth day of April?"
"It doesn't seem like there's anything special." Yang Fuming scratched his head after hearing this and thought for a while, "What can happen to us country people? We just live our lives normally!"
"It doesn't have to be a big deal, anything different from usual can be done." Shen Tianshu continued to guide and inspire, "For example, have you had any conflicts with others, have your husband and wife quarreled, especially have you encountered any problems with Nuo Something related?"
"If you say so, then there is something wrong." Yang Fuming clapped his thigh and said, "My brother was actually a member of the Nuo troupe in the village, but he became addicted to alcoholism two years ago and caused a lot of trouble for everyone. Either I missed the time or I forgot my words on stage.
"Everyone looked at my face at first and didn't care too much. Unexpectedly, my brother failed to live up to his expectations. Once when he was performing a Nuo opera, he actually acted drunkenly on the stage.
"Even I couldn't stand it anymore, so I took the initiative to find the class leader and asked him to remove my brother."
Shen Tianshu asked: "Are people in the village who can join the Nuo opera troupe more respected and envied?"
"It does have some meaning. After all, Nuo opera is used to worship heaven and earth, worship ghosts and gods, and pray for blessings during festivals and festivals. Therefore, everyone feels that being able to perform on stage will at least receive more protection even if they cannot truly communicate with the gods. "
Yang Fuming thought for a while and then added with some embarrassment: "Besides, the members of the Nuo troupe are also quite popular among the older girls and younger wives in the village. Because of this matter, my brother and I often quarreled... "
The more Shen Tianshu asked, the more he felt that his thoughts were clearer this time, and he asked eagerly: "What about the man playing the drum? Was he also kicked off the Nuo troupe?"
"Boss Guo, who plays the drum, is an honest man, unlike my brother." Yang Fuming said, "He learned the craft from his master since he was a child. He started playing drums in the Nuo opera troupe when he was a teenager. Until he got older in the past two years, My strength was not strong enough and my hands were unsteady, so I completely handed over the responsibility of drumming to my apprentices and took a back seat."
"After your brother was dismissed, the eighth day of April was the first Nuo opera in the village, right?"
"Yes, that's right." Yang Fuming nodded with certainty.
Shen Tianshu's eyes lit up. As expected, the two people who got sick first were related to Nuo opera.
Whether they were forced or voluntary, they all left the Nuo opera troupe in the village.
Needless to say, Yang Fuhui was dismissed because of poor performance. Even if Boss Guo had the resources to pass on his position to his apprentice, he still had some unwillingness and obsession in his heart.
Such two people got together on the eighth day of April, a day like the Nuo opera performance in the village. Under the influence of wine, they talked to each other about their reluctance to leave the Nuo opera troupe and their hard feelings. Once they got into trouble, they would do it. It's not surprising that anything out of the ordinary happens.
"Okay, that's all I have to ask. Thank you Yang Lizheng. Please go back and have a rest."
As soon as Yang Fuming left, Fan Yuru asked anxiously: "Ms. Tong, have you found the reason?"
Shen Tianshu said with joy on his face: "This answer should be eight|nine inseparable from ten."
Fan Yuru couldn't sit still after hearing this, jumped up and said: "I'll go and ask my father and the others to come over."
"Don't worry, I'll sort out my thoughts, and we'll talk about it together when the prince wakes up."
"That's good, thank you for your hard work, Madam Tong." Fan Yuru also felt that she was a little out of sorts, so she stopped running out in embarrassment, turned around and closed the door for Shen Tianshu, and then went downstairs to tell Fan Bingrong the good news.
In the afternoon, after Li Zian woke up, several people gathered in the hall downstairs.
Fan Bingrong looked at Shen Tianshu eagerly and said, "Mrs. Tong, tell me!"
Shen Tianshu said: "What happened in Lujiacun this time was really strange, so at first I only focused on the appearance, but instead fell into confusion. I always felt that the truth was in the fog, but I couldn't clear the clouds.
"It wasn't until I learned about the situation of several deceased people with Yang Lizheng this morning that I suddenly remembered that about four years ago, the miracle doctor Jiang Suijiang had planned to publish a medical manual on emotional diseases through the Huichang Bookstore in Nanzhili. .”
Emotional illness?
Several people in the room looked at each other, no one had heard of this name.
"It's normal that you haven't heard of this name, because it is a disease that Doctor Jiang summarized through his years of experience in treating diseases and saving people, and does not belong to any previous category.
"It's a pity that something happened to the Jiang family just after a few sample books were released, so this book was not seen by everyone in the end."
Shen Tianshu felt that he had really made progress. Although his heart was still painful, on the surface, he could calmly mention the Jiang family's tragedy.
"When I went to the palace for a follow-up consultation with the prince last month, I was lucky enough to see this handbook in the hands of Dr. Zhang." Shen Tianshu pulled Zhang Muqiu out as a shield and said, "I didn't expect it to come in handy so quickly."
"According to what is written in the handbooks of Divine Doctor Jiang, emotional diseases refer to diseases that are related to emotional stimulation and have abnormal emotional manifestations.
"This includes diseases and syndromes caused by emotional stimulation, such as depression, epilepsy, madness, insanity, etc. It also includes diseases and syndromes induced by emotional stimulation, such as chest numbness, heartache, dizziness, etc."
"For example, some girls who have not yet left the court will become crazy or depressed because their husband's family suddenly broke off the engagement. These are originally just emotions, but if they are not relieved for a long time, they will cause physical and physical problems. illness, and may even lead to death.”
Shen Tianshu tried his best to make his words as easy to understand as possible. He looked around and saw that no one raised any questions before continuing: "So after summarizing these medical cases, Divine Doctor Jiang found that internal injuries to emotions can lead to imbalance of internal organs and qi. Imbalance will cause the abnormal operation of essence, qi, blood and body fluids, and then lead to various diseases."
Li Zian listened carefully to what Shen Tianshu said and said, "What Mrs. Tong means is that the people in Lujia Village dance the Nuo opera in the middle of the night because of madness caused by internal emotional injuries. Those who died because of this are Did he pass away because he was in a state of insanity for a long time that could not be relieved and caused a real disease?"
"That's right." Shen Tianshu didn't expect that although Li Zian didn't understand medical science, he was the one who understood it the fastest, and he actually learned to draw inferences from one example.
"That's not right!" Fan Yuru was still full of doubts, "If Yang Minghui and Mr. Guo, who played the drum, went crazy due to emotional internal injuries, what about the others?
"They have no emotional scars about Nuo opera, especially Shi Ziye and Shi Tao. They didn't even know what Nuo opera was before, so why did they join in it?"
