Chapter 147 Chapter 144 Zhu Youke Reappears
Zhang Jiebin stood aside and watched Guo Jingzhong and a group of Taoist priests busy treating a group of believers.
"Brother Zhang, you don't call me either." Chen Jisheng rubbed his eyes, walked in, and complained.
Zhang Jiebin ignored it and just looked at everything in front of him intently.
When Chen Jisheng saw that Zhang Jiebin ignored him and walked beside him, he said again: "Brother Zhang, what's so good about this great dancer?"
"Stop talking and be quiet for a while." Zhang Jiebin frowned and said with some dissatisfaction.
"Oh!" Chen Jisheng responded and looked towards the courtyard. There were Taoist priests doing things, chanting mantras, casting spells, burning talismans, singing and dancing; there were Taoist priests making seals, chanting words, and tapping on the believers' bodies;
More Taoist priests are drawing symbols and pictures...
Chen Jisheng was confused. Just as he was about to speak, he remembered Zhang Jiebin's warning and had to hold back.
Zhang Jiebin really looked at the whole place intently, sometimes confused and sometimes enlightened. Only after he had seen the whole place, he began to understand in detail.
When he saw many believers burning incense and praying under the altar, he walked over. When one of them stood up, Zhang Jiebin asked: "Uncle, what makes you uncomfortable?"
Seeing his rich clothes, the man did not dare to neglect him, and replied truthfully: "The night before last year, I went out to worship and encountered an evil spirit. I went to the doctor and took medicine, but it didn't work. I heard that Qingxu Mountain is efficacious, and there is a Taoist priest who specializes in exorcising evil spirits."
I was sick, so I rushed here."
Zhang Jiebin heard that he had been hit by an evil spirit, and when he looked carefully, he realized that there seemed to be something strange about the old man's eyes.
Feeling enlightened, he asked, "But what unclean things did you see with your eyes?"
"Yeah."
Zhang Jiebin stopped disturbing him and just watched him go to a Taoist priest. The Taoist priest asked about the situation and asked him to find Guo Jingzhong.
Guo Jingzhong finished watching the believers in front before it was the old man's turn.
I saw him casting spells again, and then drawing talismans. Then a Taoist boy brought a bowl of soup. Guo Jingzhong burned the talisman, stirred it into the soup, and let the old man take it.
The old man drank the Fu Tang reverently. When the boy was passing the bowl, Zhang Jiebin walked over, took the bowl and smelled it. His eyes suddenly lit up. There was a smell that he was very familiar with in the remaining smell -
Rehmannia glutinosa!
At this time, he heard Guo Jingzhong say to the old man: "Take these talismans home and make soup with cooked ground and give them to you, then the evil spirits will be gone!"
"Sure enough!" Zhang Jiebin was convinced. He finally understood the principle of Taoist treatment.
Pray with a solemn ceremony to mobilize the energy and spirit of the whole body, and then use talismans and decoctions to prescribe the right medicine. It may have miraculous effects.
In order to verify, Zhang Jiebin stayed with Guo Jingzhong and watched him cast spells to treat each believer.
"Taoist Priest, my head always hurts. Can you cast a spell to relieve it? It's too uncomfortable."
"Yes." Guo Jingzhong said without any doubt, and then struck the believer for a while.
Zhang Jiebin could recognize some of them as acupuncture points on the human body, but most of them were unknown Taoist secrets. Even though he was only a few inches away, he didn't know what the principle was.
Then came another set of spells and seals that were different from the previous ones. After casting them, I dipped my pen in red ink and started drawing talismans on the yellow paper. I brushed them one by one, and soon I drew a bunch of them.
.
Then he took the soup bowl brought by the Taoist boy, stirred a burning talisman into it, and let the man drink it.
"Hey, my God, my head really doesn't hurt anymore. Master, am I feeling better now?"
Guo Jingzhong shook his head and said: "After that, go back and pray devoutly day and night. Mix this talisman with frankincense soup and take it three times a day or for a long time."
"Uh, what the Taoist Master means is that it can only alleviate it, but not cure it?"
"People who eat grains will suffer from all kinds of diseases. One disease will be cured and another will come back again. This is the main reason for human life. All these can only be reversed by doing good deeds and accumulating virtue. If you want to be free from illness and disaster, you need to do more good deeds.
"
Zhang Jiebin looked at Guo Jingzhong like this, wondering if he had talked so much to this believer just to regain his strength.
Looking around, I realized that although the spells and bells in the courtyard were ringing constantly, not everyone was casting spells, as if they were casting spells in turns.
If you look closely, you will see that there are gaps between the entrances and exits of the Taoist boys in the courtyard. It seems that making soup also takes time.
From time to time, believers in the courtyard would leave with smiles, and from time to time, new believers would arrive, respectfully completing a set of ritual prayers.
During the break, Zhang Jiebin asked: "Fellow Taoist Guo, does Taoist treatment combine the four methods of blessings, mantras, talismans, and medicines?"
Guo Jingzhong was stunned when he heard this, thought for a moment, and then nodded.
Zhang Jiebin smiled immediately and finally felt relieved. He was afraid that the so-called treatment was all a scam.
"How does Zhuyou treat diseases? Does he rely on tapping acupuncture points?"
"How did you see me doing it?"
"Some of them are slapped repeatedly, but some of them are just a few inches away. I really don't know the reason."
"This is the Zhu You you are talking about." Guo Jingzhong said.
Zhang Jiebin thought for a while and asked: "Is it the art of Qigong guidance?"
At this time, the pilgrims who had completed the ritual prayers had already arrived. Before Guo Jingzhong had time to answer, he fell into busyness again.
Zhang Jiebin had no choice but to start spinning on his own.
Chen Jisheng came out of nowhere and said to Zhang Jiebin: "Brother Zhang, it's so magical. They also use incense to treat diseases."
"Incense?" Zhang Jiebin became interested when he heard it and walked over. He saw a Taoist priest waving incense and mumbling something.
Zhang Jiebin looked at it for a while and then said: "Xiao Sheng, this should be an alternative application of moxibustion. Ge Xianweng and Bao Xiangu used moxibustion to treat diseases here. Didn't they take you to see the moxibustion platform before?"
Chen Jisheng nodded repeatedly: "I know, there is Bao Shuiwang, which is also named after Bao Xiangu, but they have moxa sticks, why do they still use incense?"
"I know everything, so why are I here?" Zhang Jiebin said simply.
"Brother Zhang, look, that Taoist priest started dancing the Great God again?"
Chen Jisheng pulled Zhang Jiebin over. The Taoist priest had already finished the previous dance and was reciting a mantra: "I came from the east and came across a pool of water. In the water was a dragon with nine heads and eighteen tails. If I asked him what he was eating, he would only eat malaria ghosts.
Taishang Laojun, I am as urgent as the law and order."
Recite it once, blow it once on the dates in your hands, and repeat it seven times.
Then the Taoist gave the patient the dates in his hand to chew.
Zhang Jiebin's thoughts were racing, and he suddenly remembered the scene when Gong Tingxian was teaching them in Taiyuan Hospital.
Zhang Jiebin asked: "Master Gong, I heard that massage and Zhuyou's second department were originally one of the thirteen departments of Tai Hospital, but the imperial court abolished them eight years ago. Does this mean that these two departments cannot treat diseases?"
"No!" Gong Tingxian shook his head, looked at everyone and said, "It is said in the Nei Jing that poison will cure the inside, acupuncture and stones will cure the outside. If the inside and outside are not cured, it will be treated by Zhu You."
"These are the three ancient methods, which have been passed down from generation to generation. Nowadays, doctors all over the world focus on internal treatment with decoction and medicine, and secondarily focus on external treatment with acupuncture. Those who cannot be cured internally and externally are allowed to live and die."
"It's not that Zhu You can't cure the disease, it's just that the latter's medical skills are not good enough and he can't use them to cure the disease."
Zhang Jiebin said: "Words are unfounded and doctors are pragmatic. I wonder if there are any medical records?"
"Yes, I wish Youke a medical record for curing malaria..."
