As soon as Marquis Yongxin left Xuanqingguan, he was invited by a middle-aged man to a farmhouse at the foot of the mountain. The front of the house was covered with morning glory, a vegetable field was opened in the west, and a lotus pond was dug. The small fish and shrimp looked very flamboyant. A row of bamboo fences surrounded the farmhouse, and a wooden door was erected. The plaque on the door said three words—Tao Ranju.
Marquis Yongxin looked left and right, looked up and down, and said in amazement, "Your Highness, do you really plan to live in seclusion here? Keeping warm, how will you survive the winter? Aren't you fooling around?"
"How can I be better than you? Today. You have walked through the gates of hell." The middle-aged man walked into the main room as he spoke, his tone slightly cold.
An old man with gray hair was already waiting here, and when he saw a few people, he hurriedly bowed and saluted.
The young man seemed to be more anxious than the middle-aged man. He supported the old man and said quickly, "Yi Chen, there are a few talismans here. Let's see if there is any problem." After that, he turned to look at Marquis Yongxin.
Marquis Yongxin hurriedly covered his chest and pretended to be stupid: "Fu? What talisman? What did you say, son, why doesn't this old servant know?"
Mrs. Yongxin Hou stood at the door, covering half of her face with her sleeves, very embarrassed by her master's rogue behavior. But if it was her, she would be reluctant to take out those fitness talismans, which were the treasures given by the immortal!
"Don't pretend, take it out and let Chen Yuyi take a look, and I will return it to you later. I am also afraid that you will eat something bad, and then go for a walk in the gate of hell. Today. You are lucky, who knows. Can I still have this luck?" The middle-aged man waved his hand.
Marquis Yongxin covered his chest and took a few steps back, murmured: "The immortal chief has real skills, how can you say that I am lucky? Next time I am seriously ill, just send me to Xuanqing Temple. , With Immortals here, I can't do anything wrong."
The middle-aged man sneered: "Who was the person who almost killed himself by eating the elixir?"
Marquis Yongxin was stared at by his dark eyes, and he suddenly remembered the scene of this man beheading like a melon on the battlefield, and he felt a little dizzy, so he reluctantly took out a talisman from his arms, Hand it to Chen Yuyi.
The young man recounted how Lin Dan treated Yongxin Hou in detail, and sighed: "Chen Yuyi, do you really think there are gods in the world? It's just some ashes left over from alchemy, plus two bowls of talisman water. If I had not seen it with my own eyes, I would never have believed such a miracle that a dying person was brought back to life."
Chen Yuyi took the talisman with a solemn expression, first sniffed, then twisted it with his fingertips, shook his head and said, "This talisman paper seems to be different from ordinary talisman paper, it has a strong medicinal smell and a thicker texture, it seems that After soaking in some kind of potion, this green handwriting is mixed with a strange fragrance, which has a calming effect, but it disturbs my sense of smell. I can't smell which kind of medicinal herbs this medicinal smell belongs to. Master, old slave experience It's short and shallow, I can't see the clue for a while, it's better to burn this talisman paper..."
Before the old man could finish his words, Marquis Yongxin hurriedly snatched the talisman paper back and cursed angrily: "Old Chen, this treasure can save my life, if you say it burns it, it's not kind! You have the ability, How could you not cure me back then?"
Chen Yuyi blushed and pleaded guilty and dared not speak again.
The middle-aged man waved his hand and said, "Take his pulse and see if his disease is real or fake."
As long as those precious talismans were not moved, Marquis Yongxin was very good at talking, and immediately rolled up his sleeves to let the old man feel the pulse. After a while, the old man said in amazement: "It's strange! Apart from a slight loss of qi and blood, Lord Hou's pulse is actually very strong, and the old slave can't find out where is the dark disease of old age! It's really strange, clearly I just requested the Ping An vein for Lord Hou a month ago, how could his secret disease disappear overnight! No, wait for the old slave to check it again!"
The old man held Yongxinhou's wrist and refused to let it go. However, no matter how many times he checked, the result was still the same. The dark disease that had tormented Yongxinhou for seven or eight years disappeared! Totally missing!
The middle-aged man and the young man looked at each other, their hearts shaking, but Yongxin Hou put his waist on his back and laughed loudly: "How can you quack doctors be compared with other immortals! I said back then that my disease can't be cured by mortals, only There are immortals who can cure it! You see, as expected!"
Mrs. Yongxinhou hid behind her husband, bowed in the direction of Xuanqingguan, and bowed to the immeasurable Immortal Venerable in the sky, with forbearance and excitement on her face.
The middle-aged man and the young man did not believe in this evil, so they took Yongxinhou back to the capital and called all the imperial doctors of the Tai Hospital to a large consultation, but the result was the same. There was a royal doctor who wanted to burn the talisman to check the talisman water, but Yongxinhou, who was in a hurry, kicked and flew out. The "dying man" who had been lying on the hospital bed for half a month was now fierce and fierce, clutching the talisman on his chest, his feet seemed to be oiled, and he fled the palace gate like a fly.
Looking at his jumping back, the middle-aged man was angry and funny, waved his hands and said, "Forget it, stop chasing him, let him go. As long as he can heal his illness, it doesn't matter what gods or ghosts."
The young man was puzzled and whispered, "Uncle, how did you think Lady Lin did it? Could it be that she is really a living fairy?"
The learned man was stopped for the first time, looking in the direction of Xuan Qingguan with deep eyes.
…
"Aunt Lin, how did you do it? Are you really good at immortality?" Xu Miaomiao sat beside Lin Dan, her eyes full of curiosity and admiration.
Yao Bishui also peeked at Lin Dan with longing eyes, and actually had a lot of awe for her in his heart. She had long known that Sister Lin was not an ordinary person, but she did not expect her to be so powerful that even Marquis Yongxin who stepped into the Hall of Kings of Hell could be cured.
Lin Dan held the dried Buddha dust in his hand and waved it twice, as if to check whether it was in the right hand, and his tone was rather casual: "I don't know anything about immortality or alchemy, but I just have some medical knowledge. Miao Miao , what I want to teach you is this method of healing and saving people, do you want to learn it?"
Xu Miaomiao nodded vigorously: "I want to learn! Aunt Lin, you are so majestic today, they are all afraid of you!"
"They are not afraid of me, they are respecting me. In the future, you should also be a respectable person, okay?" Lin Dan followed suit.
"Okay!" Xu Miaomiao agreed crisply.
Lin Dan rubbed her head and said, "To be a respectable person, first of all, you must have the ability, and you will have to endure hardship to learn the ability. Are you afraid?"
"I'm not afraid! I want to study medical theory!" Xu Miaomiao grabbed Lin Dan's sleeve and said with a longing, "I want to be like Aunt Lin, and a single elixir can save people."
Lin Dan chuckled lightly, shook his head and said, "Silly boy, where are the elixir, just some ordinary treatment methods. When treating a disease, you must first find out the cause of the patient. Marquis Yongxin is the three Taoist priests. The biggest customer, they will naturally discuss his various conditions every day, so I listened carefully and already knew the cause of his disease. The world's Dao Yongxinhou was stabbed by the barbarian king in his early years. It made his stomach aches and pains, so the imperial doctor would wet him with purple gold ointment every few days, hoping to heal the incision, but it didn't work for seven or eight years. Which one can you believe? That's why he was so easily bewitched by the three Taoist priests."
Lin Dan paused for a moment, then suddenly changed the conversation: "Of course, his trauma is just a primer, the real cause is in the stomach. That knife directly pierced his intestines, although the outside wound has healed, the inside However, due to poor healing, his intestines were stuck together. The intestines were all knotted, do you think, how can he get rid of the dirt in his abdomen? This is the root cause of Yongxinhou’s unbearable abdominal pain and persistent stool all year round. ."
Xu Miaomiao didn't understand this, but she still felt that Aunt Lin was amazing, and her eyes became brighter.
Yao Bishui had a preliminary understanding of Lin Dan's medical skills when he heard this. Is the intestines healed? Ordinary doctors can't detect it at all. How can they describe it clearly and clearly like Lin Dan, as if he saw it with his own eyes? The entire Taiyuan Hospital didn't know that Marquis Yongxin's illness was caused by intestinal adhesions, and thought it was caused by the knife that year, so he was given medicines that were not symptomatic every day, how could his illness be cured? And Lin Dan found out the condition based on only a few words of those supernatural sticks. In other words, her medical skills were far above the entire imperial hospital.
Lady Lin, who has saved hundreds of thousands of people in Tanzhou, truly lives up to her reputation! How blind was Xu Zuguang to abandon Lady Lin and instead cling to the poisonous woman Wan Xiuer? Yao Bishui was speechless, full of sighs.
Lin Dan took a sip of hot tea and continued: "The medicinal pills that the three Taoists sold to Marquis Yongxin were all kneaded with flour that had been left for a long time. Diarrhea? Yongxin Hou's stool is difficult to pass, but taking these medicine pills just happens to help laxatives, so you will naturally believe their nonsense. However, once or twice may be effective, but over time, the adhesions will be infected due to the decay of stool Inflammation, colic and bloody stools. I had long expected that Marquis Yongxin’s condition would develop to this point, so I had already made arrangements.”
Xu Miaomiao and Yao Bishui looked at her for a moment, their eyes full of desire and curiosity.
Lin Dan chuckled and said slowly: "The intestines are sticky together, there is inflammation, and blood in the stool every day, how do you think that Marquis Yongxin will be in such pain? So, as soon as they entered the door, I mixed it with soothing fragrance. I wrote a talisman in ink and burned it in the hall. This soothing incense was made by myself, and its efficacy was a hundred times that of ordinary soothing incense. It relieved the pain of Marquis Yongxin and the anxiety of others almost instantly, allowing me to win the trust of others. It's a first-hand arrangement."
Xu Miaomiao and Yao Bishui were stunned.
Lin Dan pointed to the small copper stove and a box of incense pills, and said, "After the smoke of the soothing incense dissipates, the pain will continue, so I burned another more powerful soothing incense pill and placed it next to him. , to completely suppress the abdominal pain, this is my second-hand arrangement. After that, I drew a talisman with ink containing diarrhea medicine, and asked Yongxinhou to drink it, so that he could discharge all the feces in his abdomen, breaking the adhesions. His intestines, and completely cured his hidden disease with the method of breaking and then establishing, this is my third-hand arrangement. The tea I drank with the second talisman paper is actually the concoction I have boiled for a day, which contains Frangipani, Herbs such as Magnolia officinalis, Salvia chinensis, Rhizoma Coptidis, Cyperus fragrans, etc., can treat intestinal adhesions. After taking them, they can be absorbed into the affected area, which can greatly reduce the symptoms. This is the fourth-hand arrangement. The bottom ash is actually a medicine called Baicao. Cream, which can treat intra-abdominal bleeding. Those talisman papers were made by smashing the herbs that are symptomatic. Burning to ashes is also a kind of herbal cream, and the curative effect is more powerful. With three pills at the bottom of the furnace, the bleeding in his abdomen will naturally stop. This is my fifth-hand arrangement. With the five-pronged approach, Marquis Yongxin's severe illness can be quickly relieved, but the intestines in his abdomen cannot be cured in two or three days. Healing. In order to prevent him from contracting inflammation after returning home, I gave him 15 talismans, each of which is made by smashing hundreds of herbs. The ink is also a good medicine for the symptoms. To promote the healing of internal injuries, this is my sixth-hand arrangement. So, do you understand how Yongxin Hou came to our Xuanqing Temple sideways, and how he got out vertically?"
"Understood!" Xu Miaomiao was confused, but it didn't prevent her from realizing how powerful her Aunt Lin was.
"Sister Lin, even if you tell the story clearly, I will still think you are a fairy! All the doctors in this world are probably not as powerful as yours! Marquis Yongxin can meet you, really He hit the big luck!" Yao Bishui hugged Xu Miaomiao and sighed sincerely: "Of course, so do Miaomiao and I."
Lin Dan waved his hand and said in a flat tone: "It's just some ordinary means. That Hou Yongxin believes in ghosts and gods. I pretended to be a god and fed him the elixir. He was greatly comforted, and his condition naturally improved faster than ordinary people. Miao Miao, This is the seventh reason why I was able to heal him so quickly today, and that is the role of placebo. The so-called placebo is just to establish firm confidence in the patient. To treat the disease first, treat the heart. Remember me firmly."
"Aunt Lin, I remember it!" Xu Miaomiao nodded vigorously.
Yao Bishui hurriedly brought her a cup of hot tea and urged, "Miao Miao, from today onwards, Aunt Lin will be your master. You have to kowtow to her and serve tea, and treat her as a mother in the future. Do you understand?"
"Understood! Master is here, please accept the disciple's bow!" Xu Miaomiao respectfully kowtowed three times, then brought a cup of hot tea to Lin Dan.
Lin Dan glanced at Yao Bishui, but didn't break her thoughts. In her previous life, she watched the ups and downs of the Xu family, and she naturally understood Xu Miaomiao's personality. This child values love and righteousness, and repays her gratitude. It was precisely because she was the only one who died for the original owner that Lin Dan rescued her from the wolf's den.
Thinking of this, Lin Dan took a sip of the hot tea, and officially confirmed Miao Miao and his teacher-apprentice status.
Yao Bishui rejoiced in her heart, and her restrained attitude relaxed a bit, and asked again, "Sister Lin, why are you so sure that Madam Hou's daughter is evil? If you don't know about immortality, wouldn't you be embarrassed by going to her house tomorrow? ?"
Lin Dan was about to answer when a little maid suddenly ran into the hall, holding a letter in her hand, saying that all kinds of strange things happened to her in recent days were recorded in it, and she asked the immortal to check it carefully. out of the hall.
"Wait until I read Mrs. Hou's letter first." Lin Dan opened the envelope and took a closer look, then shook his head and said, "How come there are so many ghosts and gods in the world, most of them are demons or man-made disasters. Don't worry, this lady's illness , I can cure it."
Yao Bishui didn't dare to inquire too much about the family scandal in Yongxin Hou's mansion, so he could only pick up something insignificant and ask: "Then how did you determine that his young lady has a disease? In case you are wrong, you The pretense of being a living fairy was pierced on the spot."
Lin Dan smiled and shook his head: "What is the most powerful kung fu doctor, do you know?"
"Diagnose the pulse?" Yao Bishui asked hesitantly.
"Painting talismans!" Xu Miaomiao's answer amused Lin Dan.
"It's wrong, it's to observe words and expressions." Lin Dan explained patiently: "As soon as a patient arrives, the doctor should first observe his appearance and demeanor before he diagnoses his pulse, so as to make a preliminary judgment on his condition. This is the common sense of the doctor. As time goes by, it is necessary to observe words and expressions. I naturally learned the skill. The Mrs. Hou looked at me frequently when she was leaving, but did not dare to open her mouth. It was obvious that there must be something hidden; Her mood was impetuous, and it could be seen that what she encountered was not a good thing, so I said that she was in trouble, eight out of ten. Nine of them will not be wrong. Besides, she always peeks at the movements of Hou Yongxin when talking with me, it seems that I didn't want him to know, so I guessed that this incident must not have happened in the Hou Mansion, so I told her that the evil was infected from outside."
"Some things may seem mysterious, but in reality, they're nothing more than a little bit." Lin Dan waved his hand with a smile.
But even so, Yao Bishui and Xu Miaomiao still felt that she was very powerful, and unknowingly developed a sense of awe for her.
…
The next day, Mrs. Yongxin Hou came to pick up Lin Dan on time. At this time, the sun had not yet risen, and it was foggy and dark outside. It was impossible to find the way without lighting the lantern, which showed how anxious Mrs. Yongxin was.
Lin Dan did not delay for a quarter of an hour, and brought Yao Bishui and Xu Miaomiao, who were also wearing Taoist robes, to Miss Hou Liu Yujie's husband's house. Fortunately, Mrs. Yongxin Hou was knowledgeable and did not covet other people's wealth and honor. She only married her daughter to the second son of Uncle Zhongyong's mansion. This person had no official position and was relying on her father-in-law for food, so she tolerated it. down. If this happened to another woman, it would be the best outcome to be abandoned, and the worst person might be drowned or burned as a demon.
Mrs. Yongxin Hou has two direct daughters under her knees, and she is about to talk about marriage. If the eldest daughter's evil madness spreads, it will definitely have an extremely bad impact on the reputation of the two daughters. She dare not Bet, let alone pin your hopes on Mrs. Zhongyong Uncle. Mother-in-law and daughter-in-law are natural enemies. Mrs. Zhongyong has already written three letters to Hou's house in a row. Regardless of Hou Yongxin's serious illness, she insists on asking Mrs. Hou to take her daughter back quickly.
Now that her husband has recovered, the emperor and the lord also said that he would take up a post in the court after a few months. Mrs. Yongxinhou was naturally more confident than ever, and came to the door with a group of guards, frightened to be loyal and brave. Mrs. Uncle's face turned pale.
Relying on the momentum of Hou's mansion, Lin Dan got to Miss Liu's house unimpeded, and saw that she was wanton smashing all kinds of utensils, with tears streaming down her face, her hair unkempt, like a mad woman. A young and beautiful lady huddled in the corner, calling her sister-in-law one after another, but did not dare to approach, and never stopped her from going mad.
"My dear family, you have seen it, Yu Jie is really crazy, she almost strangled my family a few days ago. Bao'er, let her stay in my house again, my grandchildren will not dare to go out! Before it happens, you should pick her up, this is for the good of my family and yours." Seeing her daughter-in-law's madness, Mrs. Zhongyong immediately became righteous, and when she finished, she shouted anxiously: " You guys hurry up and rescue Miss Biao, don't let her get hurt by Yu Jie!"
A group of servant girls rushed into the house in a hurry and rescued the girl who was huddled in the corner.
Immediately afterwards, a young man ran quickly from the front yard, first called "mother-in-law", and then looked at the girl worriedly, but he didn't even want to give alms to Liu Yujie in the house.
Mrs. Yongxinhou was so distressed that she just stared at her daughter, lest she hurt herself, but did not notice the abnormality of her son-in-law. Liu Yujie started to cry after smashing things, then messed up her hair and clothes, and threw bead hairpin jewelry everywhere, becoming more and more crazy.
Lin Dan stood at the door and watched for a while, and finally repeated the old trick. With a flick of his fingertips, a talisman soaked in soothing incense was ignited, instantly making Miss Liu quiet. Mrs. Yongxinhou, who had already seen this trick, rushed into the house to help her daughter, but Mrs. Zhongyong and her second son were stunned, and several servants who didn't know much more stammered: "This, this, this. Talisman paper is too effective!"
Lin Dan walked into the house, ordered the maid to twist a wet handkerchief, wipe Liu Yujie's face and hands, comb her hair neatly, and tied it with a ribbon behind her head. Liu Yujie was still trembling slightly, but she stopped crying, her eyes were slightly hazy, and she was not fully awake.
Lin Dan pretended to console her, but in reality she held her wrist to check her pulse, and found that her condition was the same as what she had guessed, so she took out a piece of yellow watch paper soaked in a symptomatic potion and drew an exorcism talisman, but it was not burned. ash, but directly into a bowl filled with water.
Everyone was stunned by her extraordinary aura, and watched her every move intently.
Suddenly, Mrs. Zhongyong exclaimed: "Oh! What happened to that talisman paper, how did it melt?"
Mrs. Yongxinhou looked back and found that today's talisman was even more miraculous than yesterday's. As soon as she entered the water, it turned into a light brown liquid, and turned the ordinary bowl of white water into a spiritual water overflowing with medicinal fragrance. Just smell it and feel refreshed and refreshed.
"Xianchang, this exorcism talisman is so good! My mind became clear in an instant, and my body and bones became lighter!" Mrs. Yongxin Hou exclaimed.
In fact, not only did she feel this way, but even Mrs. Zhongyong who stood outside the door felt refreshed. This shows how good the effect of this exorcism talisman is, and how much mana the fairy has. high!
Mrs. Zhongyong, who was still dismissive of Lin Dan, suddenly lit up her eyes. She could not wait to hold her in-law's hand immediately to inquire about the origin of this immortal, but she couldn't hold back her face for a while. The Second Young Master of Bo's Mansion, who was beside her, also showed a respectful and awe-inspiring look, and no longer dared to flirt with the young lady.
Lin Dan waved his hand and didn't explain anything. He just fed Liu Yujie the talisman and waved the Buddha dust to drive away the yin and bad luck that didn't exist in her, and said slowly, "It's done."
As soon as she finished speaking, Liu Yujie's eyes regained clarity. When she saw Mrs. Yongxinhou, she called out to her mother softly, and smiled as she came to salute. Where is the previous madness
