Chapter 141
141 Learning medicine can’t save Qijia village
The valley of brightness was not far from Yuhang Town.
Li Chu and the young miracle doctor set off after lunch. By dusk, they had already arrived at a village in front of the valley.
Traveling with the young Divine Doctor was something that made Li Chu quite nervous.
He had to keep an eye on him at all times, afraid that he would pull out a knife and stab him at any time.
Even though ordinary swords and sabers could not break through his defense.
But what if?
He clearly remembered that he had seen in some news that those who studied medicine were all experts in using knives.
Originally, they had planned to enter the mountain overnight to pick herbs and then quickly return, but this village attracted the attention of the two.
Because in this place, every family was beautiful.
As far as the eye could see, there were about 40 to 50 families in the village that were wrapped in white cloth and wailing.
This was obviously not normal.
Li Chu looked around with his heart, but he did not see any Yin Qi, which meant that there were no evil spirits in this place.
He was a little curious and after discussing with the young Divine Physician, he walked into the village.
The roads in the village were in good order, and every household raised a lot of livestock and birds. It seemed that life was not bad. There were no famine Wars, and it was not a year of famine, so it was a little strange that so many people died at the same time.
“Is there a plague?” The little Divine Doctor muttered.
As he was thinking about this, he saw a house in front of him. There were many people gathered in the mud yard.
He walked forward and shouted through the gate, ” “My fellow townsman! I’m just a passing doctor, can we have a chat inside?”
A child came to open the door and ran back after seeing Li Chu’s attire and the young miracle doctor’s first aid kit. “Grandpa, Grandpa, a Daoist priest and a physician are here!”
“Ya! Then your mother might be saved.”
An old man in clean clothes walked out of the house, followed by a large group of people who should be his children and family.
The old man looked at the calm Li Chu and then at the young Divine Doctor Who was eager to give it a try.
Then, she stepped forward shakily and held Li Chu’s hand. “Little Daoist priest, do you have any magic power? can you help us?”
Sir, ” Li Chu said, ” I am indeed a cultivator. You can tell me what you’ve encountered.
that’s great. My daughter-in-law is dying. Hurry up and do something!
As he spoke, he led the two of them into the door.
He saw a middle-aged woman lying on the bed. She looked like she was in pain and was unconscious.
Li Chu used his heart’s eye technique to observe her. He only felt that her breathing was extremely weak, like a candle in the wind that could be extinguished at any moment. However, he did not see anything unusual.
At this moment, the young Divine Doctor coughed lightly and said, ” “Old Sir, she might be sick. Instead of asking a Daoist priest to do a ritual, why don’t you ask a doctor to take a look?”
“A doctor?” The old man’s brows furrowed,”it’s useless! If seeing a doctor was useful, our village wouldn’t have lost more than 50 people! The way she looks must be caused by a ghost!”
“Did all the families in your village die in this way?” Li Chu asked immediately.
“Yup,” The old man sighed and replied,”they all suddenly fainted and died in less than a day.” In the past two months, he had been receiving one every day, just like the King of Hell. I’ve been burning incense and praying to Buddha at home every day, but it’s still my family’s turn!”
After listening to his detailed explanation for a long time, the two finally understood the details.
This place was originally called Qi Family Village. It was said that their ancestors had moved here from the southern Heaven continent. It was a branch of the Qi family, one of the seven families of the southern Heaven continent. The villagers had always been proud of it.
Life here had always been good, but in the last fifty or sixty days, people in the village suddenly began to die strangely.
At first, no one noticed it, but after two months, there was one every day, no more, no less, which was too strange.
Li Chu fell into deep thought after hearing this.
Indeed, a few days could be a coincidence. However, if there was a death every day for nearly two months, there must be something fishy.
“Is it an illness? let me take a look first.” The young Divine Doctor rubbed his hands together.
The old man looked at him in disdain. alright, be careful.
“I know,” The young Divine Doctor waved his hand and sat by the bed. He placed two fingers on the patient’s pulse.
As soon as he took her pulse, his expression instantly became calm.
After a long while, he retracted his finger and came back to his senses.
“How is it?” The old man asked, still somewhat nervous.
“It’s alright,” the young Divine Doctor smiled.
“Ah?” There was an uproar around them. Some were surprised, some were pleasantly surprised, and some people were about to smile.
He heard the young Divine Doctor continue,”I’ve just taken the time to calculate, seven days later is an auspicious day, it’s good to be buried.” Although your daughter-in-law can’t be saved, the date she chose for herself is not bad.”
“What?”
When the old man heard this, blood rushed to his head. He wanted to pick up the broom by the door, but his relatives stopped him.
The little Divine Doctor ignored the noise and lowered his voice to Li Chu, ” “I saw it just now. Her three souls are dim, her seven spirits are ethereal, and her qi and blood are weak. She seemed to have died of natural causes. He’s a little young, but it’s not impossible for Zhenzhen to be overworked. I didn’t see much abnormality.”
Soul weakness, blood essence exhaustion
Li Chu thought for a moment. let me try.
“You also know medicine?” the young Divine Doctor was stunned.
“I’ve only learned a small recovery-type magical power,” Li Chu shook his head.
The little Divine Doctor mumbled,”there’s an 80% chance that it’s useless. Your techniques and divine arts can’t replace the essence of medicine.”
Before he could finish his sentence, Li Chu had already picked up the little Bodhi spell.
Xiu-
With a flash of light, the entire room was filled with the light of the sun. Everyone who was illuminated by this light felt warm and comfortable.
“This is, Bodhisattva!” An old man called out and immediately knelt on the ground.
Then, a bunch of people knelt down.
Especially the middle-aged woman who was being shone on by the small sun at such a close distance. Her face gradually turned red and her breathing gradually became stronger. When Li Chu retracted the little Bodhi spell, she actually opened her eyes!
He even flipped over and got on the ground, shouting, ” “What am I doing here? Wasn’t I in the field?”
The crowd swarmed over. The husband called his wife, and the child called his mother. They went to explain to her.
More people were led by the old man and knelt around Li Chu. “Little Daoist priest, you’re really a living Buddha!”
Li Chu was embarrassed by their words. He quickly helped them up and said, ” “It’s just a small divine power, not worth mentioning.”
The little Divine doctor’s mouth was also wide open,”you call this a Pixiu’s little magical power of recovery?”
you’re almost coming back from the dead, okay?!
it’s just a temporary boost in vitality, ” Li Chu replied indifferently. if we don’t find the root of the problem, we won’t be able to solve the village’s problem.
How could the young Divine Doctor listen to him? he muttered and shook his head, ” “Learning medicine can’t save Qijia village.”
After a while, the sky was already dark.
The family was extremely grateful and treated li and Chu with great hospitality.
However, they were in a hurry to enter the mountain to retrieve the return to immortality herb, so they only agreed to stay here for the night when they returned and left.
As soon as he went out, he saw that the roadside in the village was lit up with fire everywhere. Almost every household was burning paper money in the brazier.
It was still acceptable for the family members who had a funeral to burn paper offerings, but the families who had not held a funeral were also burning paper offerings.
This was strange.
On the side of the ancient road in the mountain village, the red fire reflected the yellow coins. The scene was unspeakably strange.
“Sir, what are they doing?” Li Chu asked.
The old man’s expression became a little strange. He sighed and said, ” “Sigh, they’re paying tribute to Lady Luo.”
