C11 9 Strange Diagnosis and Unintentional Insinuation

The next morning, Liu Chong was woken up by a servant at the gambling den. He said that someone at the back door had prepared a palanquin and was waiting for the young master of the Godly Doctor to arrive at the mansion. Liu Chong had grown up to twelve years old. This was the first time he sat in a sedan. He couldn't help but feel curious and proud of himself. He sat on the palanquin, wanting only to look around. He wanted nothing more than to lift the palanquin's curtain so that everyone in the vicinity could see him clearly. However, he was afraid of showing off too much and making those two men laugh. After some thought, he straightened his back and sat in the palanquin, looking straight ahead. Even the master of the government would not be able to be a "gentleman".

He struggled to sit down and finally made it to a rich family. Yesterday, the patient went to the door early and personally helped him out of the sedan, saying as they walked: "Doctor Liu, your medical skills are truly amazing! This disease of mine has been through many trials but no one has been able to cure it. You only took a few needles, and it did not happen again. You really are the reborn Hua Tuo! "

"Sure, sure." Liu Chong laughed and rubbed his waist, "What kind of broken palanquin is that? It would be better to come over and feel comfortable!" The patient panicked, "What, is the sedan chair not well? But it was too late? Sigh... Look at me. I really don't have a good time here. I shall instruct the two sedan bearers to be severely punished. "

Liu Chong quickly waved his hand and said, "There's no need for that." When I go back, I don't need to sit in the palanquin. The patient shook his head: "How can that be? Since the sedan chair is not comfortable to sit on, are you used to seeing a shoulder chair? "

It was the same as the sedan chair, it also needed two people to carry it, but it was missing something to hide. Liu Chong naturally wanted others to see his power, so he thought for a while and said: "Fine, let's do it this way." He then asked, "Whose illness did you invite me here to see?"

"It's my son." The patient's face was full of smiles, but he couldn't hide the worry on his face. He walked faster and faster, until he looked like he was running. Liu Chong knew he was worried and didn't say anything, just followed the patient closely. When he reached the eastern door, the patient held onto the door frame for a long time before he could say anything, and Liu Chong was already one step ahead of him into the bedroom.

"Little Divine Doctor, sigh … He was also frightened by my illness. Look at him, you must treat him... " As soon as the patient arrived at the bedside, he burst into tears. Liu Chong nodded and said, "As long as you do your best, we will listen to fate. I can't say that I can't do anything, but I'll see how it goes after that. " With that said, he lifted up the veil, and saw a young man lying on the bed. His face was haggard and his complexion was pale, like that of a zombie.

"How did you get this disease?" Liu Chong asked as he checked his pulse.

The teenager was speechless. He raised his hand and pointed at the top of the tent with a finger as dry as firewood. He didn't know what that meant. The middle-aged patient felt his heart ache as a string of tears fell. "This year, when he went to clear up the sky, he went to the mountains to bury his mother. When he came back, he was like this. After looking at so many teachers, even the Witch Doctor, Daoist Priest and monk had looked at them, but they did not see any better. This time, I coincidentally bumped into you, Godly Doctor, so I finally have some hope. "I only have this one son. If he dies, then I don't want to live anymore …"

"Don't panic, what do you mean by not dying? "Pei pei pei!" Liu Chong spat a few times and said, "I still haven't said that I can't treat her, what are you afraid of?" The middle-aged patient was overjoyed, "You, you can treat it?"

Liu Chong carefully checked his pulse and said, "I can see that although his pulse is weak, there is no sign of him slipping on time. It can be seen that his internal organs are fine, and his lack of Qi is due to not being able to progress at all. He has a heart attack, so he is unable to eat or sleep. The middle-aged patient nodded his head, "That's right, you're right! But how should I treat it? What medicinal herbs do I need? " Liu Chong smiled, "It's not hard to treat. "But this recipe is very strange. I don't know if you believe me or not."

The middle-aged patient quickly replied, "Yes, yes! Why don't you believe it! Say it! " Liu Chong said, "Look at his pupils which are fixed and his face is stiff. I'm afraid he has already lost consciousness because of the fear. At present, the only thing we can do is to go the other way and let him start with his sense of taste.

The middle-aged patient asked, "Then how can we let him feel it?" Liu Chong stretched out three fingers and smiled, "We only need two peppers. "Two taels of good candied peppers and two taels of peppers. Go get a good chef to mince these two ingredients and feed them to your son after they have been stir-fried."

"Yes, I will pass down the orders." A trace of uncertainty flashed across the middle-aged patient's face, but he steeled his heart. "A dead horse is a living horse." He still passed on his orders.

He was about to taste the tea when he suddenly remembered something. As he wrote, he said, "He hasn't said anything in the past few days, so it's hard to avoid his throat being damaged from being stimulated by something spicy this time. I'll go and get a recipe for the menthol leaf Hangchu throat clearing soup, and you get someone to put some ice candy on it, cook it carefully, and put it cool. When he wakes up, he'll drink it all."

"Yes, yes, yes." The middle-aged patient nodded his head like he was pounding garlic. He cupped the prescription in both hands and gave the command again.

Before long, the two 'medicine' were ready. The middle-aged patient personally picked up his son and shakily poured the 'pepper oil' into his mouth. After a short while, the youth's body suddenly trembled and his face turned bright red. Then his staring eyes narrowed, and he opened his mouth to exhale loudly while shouting "spicy". In the blink of an eye, the entire bowl of green soup was poured into his stomach. Only then did the young man catch his breath, and when he saw his father staring at him in a daze, with a "Wow" sound, he laid in his father's arms and howled: "Father! Snakes, snakes, snakes. "So many snakes..."

"Not at all, good girl …." The middle-aged patient could no longer care about his face. His face was covered in snot and tears. He was crying loudly. Seeing this, the servants all knew that they had to leave. In the huge room, other than the father and son, only Liu Chong was left sitting at the side. Seeing the father and son crying bitterly, he remembered that he had no parents to rely on and could not help but feel uncomfortable. However, after hearing the words of the young man, his heart suddenly lit up: "Snake? Why did he shout the same as Keying had said? This year, when the disease broke out in the clear and bright world... It had been exactly one year since Keying had entered the gambling den. Could it be that he was pestered by Ren Sher as well? However, this family was not part of the martial arts world. Judging from his age, he should be around the same age as Keying … Could it be that Rakasha Sect was staring at these children? That's not it... I'm between the two of them. Ren Sher saw me clearly, and she didn't try to take me away yesterday. " He couldn't figure it out, couldn't figure it out, so he shook his head and thought, "No matter what, I have to go back and report this to Keying and Sister Chen first. Then I can make a decision."

When he thought of this, he could no longer stay. He hurriedly stood up and said, "Since there is no longer any problem with young master, I will go back now." The middle-aged patient quickly wiped his face, rushed to Liu Chong, bowed and said, "Godly Doctor, you are the reborn Hua Tuo, no, no, you are the Fairy Doctor, the Medical Saint, and the God of Medicine's birth! You are our Luoyang City's Little Buddha. Since you have cured my son's illness, you have saved my life. From now on, if you have any orders, I will not refuse to go through fire or water even if I have to go through water. It is my honor for you to be able to come to this little house. At the very least, you have to eat before returning, otherwise, this little one will not be able to properly entertain you, and will be struck by lightning from the heavens! "

Liu Chong laughed, "This... I'm in a hurry and can't stay for dinner. If you really want it, you can just add 10% to the medical fee. " Then he said, "This disease is strange, you can't be careless. Since the young master said that you are afraid of snakes, then you should sprinkle yellow powder all over the courtyard. I am quite close with your family, I wonder what you two are called? "

The middle-aged patient quickly replied, "My surname is Yuan and my son is named Zhua Hua. Divine Doctor, are you sure you don't want to stay for dinner? "

Liu Chong said, "Nope." You've already prepared your shoulder, you can send me back now. " Yuan Guanghua replied, "Yes, yes." He then took out a stack of banknotes and said, "This is five hundred taels of silver. Please accept it."

"Five hundred silver?" Liu Chong's eyes lit up as he stared blankly. He swallowed a large mouthful of saliva and waved his hand, "Who do you think I am? I'm not robbing for money, but I'm just a doctor. Why would I need so much money? "Fifty silver is fine."

"But … but …" It was said that this young Divine Doctor was a greedy person, could it be that all of these things were fake? However, based on his previous expression, he didn't seem like one either. However, why was it that he didn't need all the silver he had now?

Liu Chong smiled and said, "You know that I love money as if it were my life. I never hide this from anyone, but I have the rule to take money when I want it. What I should have, I will not leave, what I should not have, I do not want a single coin. My medical skills are good, so naturally, I would charge ten times more than those mediocre doctors. However, I'm not at the level of five hundred silver. The more he accepted, the more impatient he would become. In terms of medical skills, he would be unwilling to patiently study. In the future, if he couldn't save the living, he might even be unable to eat or eat. If you insist on giving me more, then I'll just leave right away. In the future, if you ever encounter any serious illness or minor calamities, don't come looking for me. "

Only then did Yuan Luohua give up, and he directly sent Liu Chong to sit on the shoulder of the ruler, and said: "Godly Doctor, about this … Sigh, I am truly unwell at hospitality, please do not take offense at this old man. " Shouldering his shoulder, Liu Chong looked down at him from his shoulder. His feet swung and he was extremely happy in his heart, so he smiled and said: "I am?" "What, am I old?" With that said, he raised his palms and walked out of the Yuan family gate, heading towards the Gold Casino.

Along the way back, Liu Chong felt an indescribable feeling of glory. The closer they got to the street, the more pleased they became with themselves.

His state of mind was like the clouds in the sky. He was humming a small tune and unknowingly arrived at the gambling den's entrance. The moment he entered the gambling den, he saw that all the gamblers were gathered together, seemingly discussing something. He walked to the side and heard one of the gamblers say, "I didn't expect that a few months ago, we were still gambling with Boss Huang and this sort of thing happened to his family."

The other gamblers nodded, and one of them said, "That's right, that's really tragic. I heard that the young son of his family was kidnapped and extorted for tens of thousands of family properties. It's fine, but the poor thing is that the money has been given away and the child is gone. "

Another person added, "Ai, what a heartless person. That child was discovered by the Luo River yesterday, and it was said that all the blood on his body had been drained. "Tell me, is this made by a human or a ghost?"

A fatty beside him said, "Is there even a need to ask? It was made by an animal!"

The more Liu Chong heard, the more terrifying he felt. He vaguely felt that this matter was related to Ye Keying and the young master of the Yuan Family, but he didn't dare to think too deeply about it. While he was lost in thought, he suddenly felt someone heavily pat him on the shoulder. He hurriedly turned around and saw a girl wearing a light crushed flower dress call out to him with a smile, "Junior Brother Liu, I've been waiting for you for a long time!"

"What Junior Martial Brother Liu?" Liu Chong saw who it was. It was Ye Keying, who was two years younger than him. He could not help but scowl. He didn't even look at the fact that he was still wet behind the ears and was screaming. Little Keying, aren't you afraid of losing your life? "

Ye Keying giggled and said, "You are the one who has lost his life. In the future, when you enter Gambling Sect, regardless of your age, we will only talk about the order in which you enter. You can't call me little Keying anymore! "Come on, call me Sister Shi, and I'll give you some sweets!"

Liu Chong did not know the rules of the Jianghu, because Qiu Cai, Hee Yang, and the other two were originally ranked by age, and in addition to that, the junior sister Ye Keying in the gambling house was also the youngest. Ye Keying thought that the title of his junior brother was based on his age, but unexpectedly, he actually suffered a loss and hurriedly said, "What you said is wrong, how can there be such a reckless rule!"

Ye Keying didn't think so. She stepped forward and grabbed his hand, skipping to the backyard of the gambling den. As she ran, she said, "You'll know when you become a student of me!"

Liu Chong was led by her into the backyard of the gambling house. He almost bumped into the tables and chairs several times. Fortunately, he was smart and was able to avoid the "difficulty" with his agile body. Along the way, he only saw Hee Yang, Yang Tiancheng, Fu Yide, and Sheng Chang greeting business. When he arrived at the center of the backyard, he saw Chen Wanniang and Qiu Cai standing side by side, smiling at him and Ye Keying.

"Come, quickly acknowledge me as your master." Ye Keying's agility was like a rainbow butterfly in a flower. Her waist straightened and she stopped in front of the two of them, but Liu Chong could not stop his momentum, and with a "Ouch!", he pounced forward. Ye Keying did not let him off, instead, she lightly tapped on his back.

"Keying is messing around." Lili shook her head and helped Liu Chong up. She glanced at Ye Keying and said, "Junior brother just joined the school. Don't bully him." Ye Keying laughed. "He was the one who couldn't stand on his own feet, so don't blame me. Junior Brother Liu, do you hear me clearly? "

Liu Chong naturally heard it clearly. He gritted his teeth and glared fiercely at Qiu Cai, saying, "Eldest Brother, you clearly …" Qiu Cai smiled, "You didn't ask me about this generation's matters. You just said not to be Keying's martial nephew." Liu Chong was at a loss for words and could only silently scold Qiu Cai for being crafty. Only then did he hear Chen Wanniang speak slowly, saying, "Liu, don't blame Qiu Cai for this. It's all at my behest." Ren Sher is in the dark, but you are in the light. It would be as easy as flipping your hand if she were to harm you. Only if you enter my Gambling Sect would she temporarily not dare to act presumptuously. After all, I do owe someone from the past with my Rakasha Sect, so I could block him at the most crucial moment. "

Liu Chong nodded, glanced at Qiu Cai, and said: "That being the case, how could it be true that Eldest Brother paid back his debt of gratitude to pass on his martial arts experience?" "Since that's the case, senior brother Qiu, do you still owe me a personal favor?"

Qiu Cai smiled and said, "Whatever you say. In short, you saved my life, so this matter will never be forgotten. " Chen Wanniang continued, "Liu, if it wasn't for your timely reminder during yesterday's battle, this gambling den would probably have been destroyed. Not only did you save Qiu Cai's life, you also saved all of us. This is something that a big fellow will never forget, so you can rest assured. "

Liu Chong had always been respectful and fearful of Chen Wanniang, but after hearing what she said, he felt a little embarrassed and said, "Sister Chen … No, what did Master say? I should be. " At this moment, Ye Keying suddenly interrupted him with a smile, "Junior Brother Liu, you haven't taken on a master yet. Why have you changed your name so quickly?"

Naturally, Liu Chong refused to back down, so he looked up and smiled. "Little Keying, don't forget that I saved your life yesterday as well. Just based on this alone, you can call him senior brother, and it won't be a loss, right? " Ye Keying could not refute him. She pouted her cherry lips and turned her face away, no longer speaking. Chen Wanniang smiled and said, "Keying, Liu, stop this nonsense." Our Gambling Sect does not value these seniority or fame, whether it's Senior Brother or Senior Sister, just calling them by their names, you can call them as if it's convenient. For example, Liu, if you still call me Master, or even Sister Chen doesn't mind, you can call me whatever you want. As for the ceremony of acknowledging me as your master, I will not do it in my heart. Just now, when you called me 'master', you accepted me as your master, and from then on, we will be master and disciple.

Warmth filled Liu Chong's heart. He immediately clasped his hands and bowed, saying with a stern expression, "Yes, thank you, Sister Chen." Chen Wanniang nodded and said, "Your Senior Brother Qiu's martial arts are already at the level of a First Rated Warrior. In the future, he will teach you the basic martial arts first. I will teach you when you reach the Small Success Realm." Qiu Cai also stepped forward and said, "Let's put it this way first. Junior Brother Liu, from now on, you will train with me, and I won't care about favors. "

Liu Chong laughed, "Everything will be decided by eldest senior brother's instructions. If I, Liu Chong, am slacking off, then I'll be a puppy. " Ye Keying giggled and said, "Since that's the case, Big Brother Qiu, teach him a lesson." I'd like to see what a small dog like that looks like! "

Chen Wanniang tapped Ye Keying's forehead and said, "Keying, don't talk about others. Noon had arrived. After dinner, he would go and prepare lunch. Yesterday, you were off by four hours. If you can't make up for it today, then don't even think about sleeping tonight. "

Ye Keying stuck out her tongue. Although she had never been on good terms with Chen Wanniang, she would eventually admit from the bottom of her heart that Chen Wanniang was her backer after witnessing yesterday's scene. After learning martial arts for her own sake, she restrained her arrogance and headed to the back hall. After this incident, Liu Chong suddenly remembered what he just heard and quickly called Ye Keying. He then said to Chen Wanniang, "Sister Chen, I have something to tell you. I'll have to trouble you to ask Master Yuanzhi to come out too. "

Ye Keying was startled as she said, "My big brother … he … he woke up this morning and said that he had thought of going to Nan Shaolin to practice martial arts all night, so he left long ago. If you have anything to say to me, it's the same. " Liu Chong frowned and muttered to himself, "Master Yuanzhi has already left … How could this … "Sigh, I should, hopefully, be …"

Ye Keying grew impatient and urged, "Just say what you want to say. You stutter like an old woman." Chen Wanniang quickly stopped Ye Keying and asked, "Liu, what's the matter? If there's an emergency, I will order Sheng Chang to chase Yuanzhi and come back. "

Liu Chong nodded and waved his hand, saying, "That's enough. That Ren Sher also did not recognize Master Yuanzhi yesterday. It must have been nothing serious in that short period of time." Then he patted his stomach and smiled, "After talking for so long, I'm already hungry. Why don't we eat and talk. " He did not wait for them to finish their words. He went straight to the back of the hall, looking for the faint aroma of food. However, just as he took two steps, he felt the back of his neck tighten, and he heard Qiu Cai yell: "Brat, since you have recognized your master, you should know how to respect and respect! When you smell something to eat, you will run in front. You have no rules! "
