Summer dusk comes late.
The street where the 'Living Dead' Medical Clinic is located is called Long Street, and it is one of the oldest streets in Shendu City. Today's Holy Lord is a enterprising person. Under her rule, the city of God has been reopened and many new urban areas have been spawned. They are clean and spacious. Although these ancient streets are not far from the palace city, they are gradually becoming sparsely populated.
Shen Lian's medical clinic was bought from a family who moved to the other side of the street, where the environment is better and the security is better.
The door of the medical center is half-covered, and the lazy evening smoke is perched on the edge of the threshold, making it extremely quiet.
The sound of carriage wheels pressing against the road broke the tranquility. The driver was Zhao Xiang. He got out of the car and opened the curtain. The first thing that was exposed was a slightly white and fat hand. Is a person pampered? It can often be seen from his hands. Generally speaking, only noble people who rarely do rough work can take good care of their hands. Of course, this is only for ordinary people, and the proprietress of the tavern next to Anping Canal is an exception.
Before Zhao Xiang could call the door, the door had already opened. A pretty little girl stood at the door. When she saw Zhao Xiang and the fat middle-aged man next to him, she gave him a gift, which is the gift for juniors to meet their elders. , and then said crisply: "Brother is waiting inside for this uncle to come in."
Zhao Xiang smiled and said to the middle-aged man next to him: "This is the first time I've seen him greet guests in the past few times I've been here, so it's Xiao Yin Yin who comes."
The middle-aged man is very pale, and his appearance is slightly similar to Zhao Xiang, but his appearance is softer and gentler.
The circles under his eyes were dark and deeply sunken, as if he had not slept well and had no energy.
But he was still very polite and said: "How did your brother know that we are here?" But from the sound of his voice, you could tell that he was not very energetic and was struggling to speak.
"Brother is a god. Of course I knew you were coming." Ruoxi was very proud. Although this uncle was not as annoying as Zhao Xiang, he was too stupid.
The middle-aged man leaned over and said, "My brother is a god, what is Yin Yin?"
Ruoxi bit her lip and said, "It's the little fairy."
The middle-aged man took off a string of beads from his hand and said, "The gift you gave me just now was truly Dong Li. My uncle didn't bring any gifts, so he gave this string of beads to you."
Zhao Xiang looked shocked and was about to speak when the middle-aged man stopped him with a look. This bracelet was a gift from his grandmother to his father and he has never left it for many years. Not to mention the great significance, but the things given by the emperor cannot be given to others casually.
Ruoxi put her hands behind her back, shook her head and said, "I don't want it."
Then she said: "Brother asked me to take it, please give it to me." She stretched out her hand as if you were putting it on me.
The middle-aged man smiled slightly and did not ask why Ruoxi heard what Shen Lian said and put the bracelet on her.
This bracelet has a total of nine beads, which are dark green in color and are not close together. The rope holding the beads is very shrinkable. Although Ruo Xi has small hands, she can still put it on.
Shen Lian was in the yard, with a pot of tea and a cup in front of him. The middle-aged man walked into the yard and sweated a lot. Zhao Xiang helped him sit down.
He tried his best to cheer up and observed Shen Lian, but neither of them took the initiative to speak.
In the end, Zhao Xiang broke the deadlock and said, "Have you noticed my father's illness?"
There was no unnecessary expression on Shen Lian's face, he was as calm as before, and said calmly: "Your Highness, your eyes have been blurry recently, you often feel dizzy, and you always want to sleep, but can't?"
"It's true. I didn't take it seriously at first, but over the past few days, I've been mentally exhausted. I've tried many methods, but now the situation is getting worse and worse." No doctor in the palace knew what his symptoms were, so he checked Later, he even said that there was nothing wrong with him but insomnia. He even found the same thing with famous doctors outside.
However, after being prescribed medicine to help him sleep, he still had no improvement. He suffered from insomnia every night and was even more sleepy during the day.
He still had to participate in government affairs. The empress clearly saw that he was in poor health and did not take the initiative to intervene.
"These symptoms are easy to get rid of. I can solve them for you right away. However, the root of the disease requires another prescription. Success or failure is a matter of choice." Shen Lian said softly.
The middle-aged man said: "Then can you help me get rid of my dizziness first?"
Shen Lian smiled and said, "The medicine has been prepared for you a long time ago."
He took out a piece of paper charm, which spontaneously ignited without wind, and finally the ashes fell into the tea cup. Shen Lian held the tea cup in his hand, and the cup spun rapidly in his hand, but not a drop of water in the cup spilled out.
He paused leisurely for a moment, and the water in the cup stopped. It seemed to violate the laws of physics. This skill alone amazed the middle-aged man.
The ashes floated clearly in the tea.
Shen Lian handed the tea cup to the middle-aged man and said leisurely: "Drink this cup of talisman water."
Zhao Xiang said: "Shen Lian, don't be ridiculous." He came to see Shen Lian for medical treatment, which made his father's drinking of talisman water unreliable.
"Then I will write out a prescription for you to take back and show it to the imperial doctors. Then I will take the medicine and let others take it. Is it harmless? Then it will be reliable to give it to His Highness?" Shen Lian said with a smile.
Zhao Xiang was quite embarrassed, he did mean this.
The middle-aged man said: "This is the art of Zhu You, and it is also a kind of medical skill. Xiang'er, don't blame others wrongly."
The use of talismans and incantations to treat illnesses has been around since ancient times, but this was the first time a middle-aged man encountered it.
He picked up the tea cup and drank it all in one gulp, quite decisively.
Zhao Xiang showed his decisiveness in front of others, and he was thunderous in silence. He was not afraid of whether Shen Lian had the intention to harm him.
After the middle-aged man drank a cup of tea and took a few breaths, he suddenly vomited according to Zhao Xiang. Not only was there bitter water, but there was also a black insect jumping alive on the ground. Zhao Xiang could clearly see it.
The insect jumped a few times, then turned into a plume of black smoke, and suddenly flew into the air. At this time, Shen Lian flicked his finger, and a breath of heaven and earth went away silently. With a hissing sound, the black smoke was annihilated.
Zhao Xiang was shocked and confused. He looked at his father, then at Shen Lian, and asked, "Brother Shen, what's going on?"
"That was a poisonous insect just now. Your Highness's pain these days was all caused by this evil insect. It's okay now." Shen Lian said.
The middle-aged man had stopped vomiting and said with a wry smile: "I didn't think it was a poison. No wonder the doctors couldn't detect it, but how dare they do this?"
His complexion has improved slightly, but his eyebrows are a little sad.
In the palace, it is taboo to be bewitched. Besides, his mother would definitely be able to tell that he was bewitched, so why didn't she show any signs of it
****
The middle-aged man and Zhao Xiang were both sitting in the carriage, and there were other people driving the carriage outside. In fact, when they left the palace, there were many people guarding them secretly.
Zhao Xiang asked: "What is written in the prescription that father Shen Lian just gave you to remove the root of the disease?"
ps Thank you to the Lord of Creation, reading is always good, being upright every day, time turns into foam, oh hehe hehehahaha for the reward
