The doctor searched among his patients and finally found an old rich man.
The other party lives in a mountain village. Logically speaking, it is absolutely impossible for Lan Yiwei to have the manpower, motivation, and energy to investigate an old rich man in such a remote place.
After a little effort, he convinced the old rich man.
"You also want to make sure that you can be reincarnated smoothly after drinking the medicine, right?" With just such a sentence, he asked the old rich man to cooperate with him and write down a complete life resume.
He also investigated the old rich man's son, grandson, wife and neighbors to confirm each other.
The records made are much more detailed than those of the yamen interrogating prisoners.
Moreover, many records contain relevant witness and physical evidence.
For example, in a certain year, I bought a painting in a certain place and stamped my seal on the painting. Which scholar sold it to him...
The impression is very deep. If there is a reincarnation, I will definitely be able to tell it.
If you can't tell, then the court is lying.
Of course, in doing so, he knew exactly how much risk he was taking.
He dared to publicly expose the imperial court's money-making tricks like this, which would be more harmful than gathering a crowd to rebel.
Regardless of success or failure, the nine tribes will be killed.
Even the old rich man couldn't escape.
He was a little scared.
But think about it, I am almost sixty this year, but I have still accomplished nothing. I have treated some patients and have not left any reputation.
In terms of reputation, he was just a scholar, but he was almost expelled by the old master because he failed the annual examination. Fortunately, a classmate interceded and said that he was dedicated to medical skills, and the old master was merciful, so he was not expelled.
But his medical skills are just like that, neither above nor below, and it is impossible to leave a name in the history books.
But this time, in the midst of danger, he saw hope of leaving his name.
To put it bluntly, the scholarly doctor is not a selfless saint, he also has selfish motives.
What scholars want most is to have a good reputation, followed by wealth and beauty.
He couldn't count on the latter two, so he could only count on the former.
This time is the moment for him to leave his name!
…………
Dinhwei City, the provincial capital of Seberang Perai.
On the first day of a certain month, the scholarly doctor took the old rich man and the fountain of youth to a certain school ground in the city. After the monthly meeting of reincarnations appearing to preach sermons was held, he openly challenged the governor who personally presided over the meeting...
"Student Xue Wenfa is here to ask the governor for proof of reincarnation." He held a large paper trumpet and shouted towards the high platform wrapped in red cloth.
The governor was originally very happy today because the court said that after next year, the taxes of all kinds of farmers will be halved.
For him, this was a great thing: what do poor people know?
The court said it would be halved, and he also said it would be halved, but he did not refuse to pay the money owed in previous years.
So next year the money will be collected as in previous years, but it will be divided into two parts: half is the money that should be collected and is handed over to the court; the other half is the money owed and goes into the pockets of him and his colleagues.
This is half of the tax revenue of a province. At least, he can get half a million taels.
Don't think that he doesn't dare to do it. As long as he discusses it with a few colleagues, it can be done.
As for the blue-clad guards, he is not afraid of them. They are not that smart at all. They are human beings too.
That is to say, if you are well-informed about the capital, even if you leave the capital, you will still be discredited.
When he was happy, a scholar suddenly came and said that he wanted to verify the reincarnation. He wanted to be beaten out, but he said that the other party had committed an offense.
As a result, the master next to him said: "Sir, the Queen Mother has issued an order long ago. Anyone who asks for verification must respond. If it is in the Yamen, that's it. Now in public, tens of thousands of people can see it..."
The governor thought about the court's appropriation and next year's tax money, and frowned and held back.
"Tell the picker to come closer."
He pointed around casually and asked the scholar doctor to come up to the stage.
Xue Wenfa took the old rich man, whose legs had been weak for a long time, to push through the crowd and climb to the high platform.
The onlookers on the school grounds were immediately interested. Just three reincarnations could keep them talking for a month.
Now that there is another one, I will naturally be even happier.
"Student, I have met Mr. Boss." Xue Wenfa knelt down respectfully.
"Seeing as you are also a man of great fame, why don't you consider the complicated affairs of the court and do things like this?" the governor said majestically.
"There is a saying that is better than seeing it. It is for the sake of the imperial court that the students have gone through so much trouble to find someone who is willing to take the Fountain of Youth in public. If the governor can find out the reincarnation of this person, I believe everyone will have nothing to say about reincarnation.
Doubts." Xue Wenfa kept talking.
It's a tough guy.
The governor suddenly had a big headache. After serving as an official for thirty years, he had seen quite a few scholars like this. These guys only wanted fame, were not afraid of death, did not love money, and were neither hard nor soft.
"Get up. In that case, little old man, where do you live and where are you from? Don't lie. You must know that reincarnated people are often not far from you." The governor looked at the old rich man who was acting as a test subject.
The old rich man was so frightened that he couldn't speak, and he was hesitating half-clearly.
It was Xue Wenfa who said on his behalf: "This member of the royal family has lived in XXXX for a long time, and his place of origin..."
"Okay, here you go, explore the horse for three hundred miles, hurry up, and go to the vicinity of his hometown immediately to inquire." The governor took his own sign and handed it to the master.
The master immediately obeyed.
"Now, you can drink the water from the fountain of youth." The governor then said to the king impatiently.
The old rich man took out a jade bottle from his arms and opened it slightly with trembling. It was blue, like jade liquid and nectar.
He looked at it for a few times and drank it decisively.
The personal statements of the three people just now gave him a lot of courage.
Beautiful afterlife, here I come...
In the next life, I will marry twenty-seventh wife...
One cycle per month, with three days of rest.
With his beautiful thoughts, the old rich man threw himself down on the spot.
He died with a smile on his face.
Xue Wenfa looked at that smile, but felt it was very strange.
However, the onlookers around him were cheering loudly.
"Oh, this master has successfully reincarnated!"
"I really envy people. With Su Hui in the next life, everything they do can be done with twice the result with half the effort."
"He can continue to enjoy happiness in the next life."
"I wonder where this master's treasure is hidden. Let's go and explore it quickly."
"Hahaha……"
The envious ones, the envious ones, and the spectators were all shouting.
Xue Wen has big hair and is a bunch of fools, fools who have been fooled.
It is very similar to those believers who were fooled by the monks and donated their family property and land to the temple. As a result, their family fell into decline. I don't know what will happen in the next life, but this life is ruined anyway.
The previous dynasty destroyed Buddha several times for this reason. Why did it have to be destroyed?
Isn’t it because the people are so stupid that they simply can’t resist the monk’s tongue-splitting lotus?
The issue must be resolved by the imperial court personally cleaning it up.
Well, now, the imperial court is taking the initiative to fool the people, and in order to extract money, it throws out the same theory of reincarnation. Isn't this more terrifying than the monks?
In Xue Wenfa's eyes, the governor in red official robes turned into a tiger, and the court's guard of honor turned into a spider web.
They are laughing, they are drooling.
And he, Xue Wenfa, must inherit the words of the saint, save the common people, eliminate confusion, let people return to the real life, and do not believe in falsehoods.
At this time, of course he did not know the correlation between mystery and reason, confusion and science.
Who could believe that the Middle Ages, which was far darker and more stubborn than the East, and would be ruined by just a few words of explanation, could brew the wine of science?
The East, which pays attention to rationality and practicality and basically does not engage in religious wars, has fallen into a vicious circle of practicality and experience and has never been able to rise to the height of theory.
Xue Wenfa only regarded himself as a Confucian scholar who saved the world.
