"Why are you asking so many questions? After all, Master has no taboos outside."
Zhang Min carried some salt down and carried it to a thatched hut.
Ying Bao followed behind and looked around the place.
Several children looked at her and Zhang Min curiously, and one of them even said to Zhang Min: "You are Zhang Min, right?"
Zhang Min grinned and said, "Yes, don't you recognize me? Xiaodouzi."
The boy known as Xiaodouzi chuckled and said, "I almost didn't recognize you. You've gained a lot of weight."
Zhang Min: "I haven't gained weight, I've just grown taller. Huh? You seem to be still so short." Still thin.
Xiaodouzi's face darkened and he defended: "I'm short because you gained weight yourself."
The two of them entered the hut while talking.
The room was narrow, with dark walls, and there were earthen kangs built inside and outside, and reed mats with torn edges were spread on the kangs.
Yingbao: That’s it.
There were guests at his house, and his father asked him and his sister to get water to make tea.
Who has nothing to do but carry a fire stick with them? That thing can set their clothes on fire if they are not careful.
Ying Bao knelt down and stirred up the water with her hands, curious in her heart.
Cuilan happily took it and quickly stuffed a piece into her mouth with a smile on her face. "It's so sweet!"
"Go." Zhou Wuchang nodded in agreement and warned, "Don't go far."
Such a barren place is not as good as the southern slope of Dongchen Village. Perhaps this is the reason why their village is poor.
Yingbao is also curious.
There is very little fertile farmland here, and there are no big trees on the mountains. There are even very few shrubs and weeds. It is a gray area with almost no vegetation.
Ying Bao walked over and took this person's pulse.
That little Douzi wasn't much better either. His clothes and sleeves were all silky, so he could go to the market to beg for food without having to dress up deliberately.
Then she washed her hands and started making noodles and cooking.
"I won't go far, so I'll go to Stone Mountain to have a look."
Because the master said that he will pay for the medicine, but it must wait until he returns.
It is simply incredible that his three siblings are actually the children of the village leader of Zaoshu Village.
Zhang Min saw that he was struggling to carry it, so he took the initiative to carry water with him.
"My name is Cuihua, her name is Cuilan, and my father is the village leader of Zaoshu Village."
He wanted to get a torch and go into the cave by himself, because he had hidden something in the cave and wanted to see if it was still there.
Zhou Wuchang and the two old men had already sat on the kang and started chatting.
"...His arrow wound has never healed. Now it is pus-filled and rotten. Please ask the doctor to save his life."
"Yingbao, let me take you to see the cave here. It's very beautiful."
It was the voice of senior brother, and Yingbao ran out of the kitchen quickly.
Zhang Min lived in this village for half a year two years ago and became very familiar with the children in the village, and then went to Qinchuan County with his master and brother.
Master once said that practicing medicine is also a kind of spiritual practice. Everywhere he went, he would visit a free clinic there if possible.
The two girls squatted down and scooped water into the bucket with gourds and gourds. Xiaodouzi poured the bucket directly into the water and filled it up before carrying it up.
Zhou Wuchang waved to his young apprentice: "Disciple, come here and see if he can be saved?"
Then he said to the people standing aside: "Tell me about his situation."
Ying Bao had never seen the hostess of the house, so she couldn't help but wonder: "Where is your mother?"
The pair of sisters in front were dressed in patches. In such a cold weather, they were even wearing straw sandals.
Cuihua took the candy and thanked her, then carefully put it into her pocket.
Zhang Min felt a little regretful and kicked a stone into the water. He turned around and asked Xiaodouzi: "Xiaodouzi, do you have a fire stick?"
Xiaodouzi shook his head, "I didn't bring it."
Cuihua saw her doubts and said, "We usually drink water from the village's wells. Today, the general is here, so my father asked us to go to the cave to get water."
While Cuihua was talking, she put a bamboo stick through the eye of the bucket handle, lifted the bucket with her sister, and said, "Let's go back. When the sun goes down, there will be wild wolves here."
"I don't want to." The cave here is narrow, and there is water flowing out from under the feet. Although I am curious about what is inside, I don't want to enter the cave at all.
Ying Bao had nothing to do, looking around while walking.
She dug out her bag and took out a few pieces of candy and handed them to Cuihua and her sister Cuilan.
Zhang Min placed a large bag of salt and icing sugar on the kang and said, "Master, I will take my junior sister out for a walk."
Zhang Min poked his head into the cave and said to his junior sister: "Yingbao, do you want to go in and have a look?"
The man next to him, tall and thick-set, with a beard, spoke seriously about his condition.
She has never seen a cave with water.
So along the way, Yingbao also examined several seriously ill patients and gave them some medicine.
The absence in her words meant death, and Yingbao understood it instantly.
Several children came to a hillside two miles away from the village, climbed up a path, and came to the entrance of a cave.
A little girl looked at her and asked, "What's your name?"
Cuihua said while talking to each other: "Mother is gone."
Yingbao looked at Cuihua, who was only about nine years old, and her sister Cuilan, who was only six or seven years old. They were very slow at doing housework.
Xiaodouzi and two girls aged seven or eight also came over, each carrying a small wooden bucket in their hands.
The children carried the water to the kitchen, and then Yingbao saw that there was water in the water tank at Cuihua's house, but the water quality was not very good, it was a bit turbid, not like the water in the cave.
Xiaodouzi also picked up a bucket of water and walked back slowly.
This is halfway up the mountain, and it's incredible that water can come out of the cave.
Just when she didn't know what to say, she suddenly heard someone outside calling her: "Yingbao, Yingbao, come here."
"What's the matter?"
The cave was pitch dark, but streams of clear spring water flowed out of it and gathered in a puddle.
Later, Master was hired as the instructor of the Yin and Yang Department of the Medical Department, and he has been studying in the Medical Department to this day.
Zhang Min: “It’s warm in winter and cool in summer, and there’s an underground river. The villagers here get their water from caves.”
"Jiang Yingbao." Yingbao also smiled at her.
But isn’t Master a master of forbidden spells? Why do you still need me, an apprentice, to check someone’s pulse?
When I came to the main room, under the light of the lights, I saw a man lying on the kang. His face was thin and pale, and he seemed to be dying soon.
Sure enough, Zhou Hao said: "Master asked you to see a patient."
What can Yingbao do? She can only agree.
Ying Bao had to go to the carriage to get the medicine box.
The senior brother would not call her if nothing happened. It must be that the master asked him to get some pills again, or to see someone.
The bearded man said, almost choking.
Ying Bao took off the blanket on the man and saw that the man was shirtless and had a wound as big as a bowl on his shoulder, which had festered and gave off a strong stench.
After checking, it was found that this person only had injuries on his shoulder.
She glanced at the master and said, "In his case, we must ask a surgeon to remove the carrion, and then he can get better with medication."
Zhou Wuchang said calmly: "There is no doctor, so it's up to you to do it. If it doesn't work, let your senior brother do it for you."
