You call this retreating into the world?

Chapter 18

In order to invite Xia Baoliang to come forward, the county magistrate gave enough face, prepared a big sedan chair early and waited outside the Suxin Medical Center.

Team leader Zhang stepped forward to lift the car curtain and said enthusiastically, "Doctor Xia, Miss Gao, please!"

Glad to hear someone call her "Tall Girl", she immediately raised her head and chest up, as if she had really grown a few inches taller, and she became radiant and confident.

"By the way, this is medicine money."

It wasn't until the two of them sat in the sedan chair that Bantou Zhang remembered that he hadn't paid the consultation fee yet, and immediately took out a heavy silver ingot from his purse and stuffed it into Xia Baobao's hand.

"Boss Zhang is polite, but those medicinal materials don't cost that much money." Xia Buddy waved his hand, refusing to pick up the silver ingots.

"Hey, for the rest, I'll treat you as a brother and I'll treat you to a drink or something. Don't be polite to me." Seeing that Xia Bubu didn't accept him, Team Leader Zhang keenly caught the sparkling eyes of happy eyes, and immediately understood, The money was handed to her.

"That's right, it's someone else's mood anyway, Master, your consultation fee is so cheap, our medical clinic can hardly make ends meet." She rubbed the clean and shiny silver ingot with her small hands, and stared straight, " Master, I will keep it for you first, and I will record it in the account book of the medical office later."

Xia Buddy squinted at her, as a master himself, he still doesn't know the virtues of his disciples?
She turned around and filled her own pockets!
But he didn't bother to point it out.

Just treat it as pocket money for this silly girl.

Afterwards, the sedan chair was lifted up and headed towards the magistrate's yamen under the opening of a group of yamen servants.

"Master, your reputation is getting louder and louder!" Sitting on the soft cushion, Gao Xing said with emotion.

"Great fame is not a good thing." Xia Buddy smiled slightly.

"What's wrong, doesn't Master want to be famous?" Gao Xing tilted his head and couldn't figure it out.

"I prefer the life of idle clouds and wild cranes. Fame and fortune are as insignificant to me. Practicing medicine is just a temporary interest. Do you believe what my teacher said?" He shook his head happily.

But immediately, she frowned again, "I don't believe that there are people in the world who don't love fame and fortune, but Master will definitely not lie to me when he says so, so I will forcefully believe it!"

Xia Buyi smiled, showing a cunning fox-like face, "How many times have I lied to you? You little fool, I'm playing tricks on you."

He was speechless with joy, but after thinking about it, it made sense, this time Xia Bad had played tricks on him not once or twice, his heart was very dark!
Immediately, he clenched his fist tightly, wanting to punch him hard.

"But only about this matter, I really didn't say anything false, but now it seems that unless you live in seclusion and find a Taoyuan, otherwise a talented person like a teacher will not seek fame and fortune by himself, the word fame and fortune will come too."

he sighed.

For a moment, Gao Xing didn't know whether he was showing his true feelings, or simply being smug.

Arrived at Yamen.

Team leader Zhang lifted the car curtain and laughed cheerfully, "You two, we're here!"

Tongzhou City is an administrative unit at the county level in the Southern Tang Dynasty.

However, counties are also divided into large, medium and small. Obviously, Tongzhou is a large county with hundreds of thousands of people under its jurisdiction. It is built by the sea and is destined not to be poor. Therefore, the rank of the county magistrate of Tongzhou is not low, at least he is a seventh-rank official.

Although he is a seventh-rank official, to the imperial court, he is the size of a sesame seed, but to the common people, he is also a great official, so the head of this county is also known as "Bailihou".

The power of life and death in charge of a county is extremely authoritative and should not be offended.

But now Xia Buddy followed Zhang Bantou into the magistrate's yamen with leisurely steps, entered through the side door, looked left and right, and walked all the way to the hall in the backyard of the yamen for receiving guests.

"Master Li! Doctor Xia is here!" Team leader Zhang roared.

The next moment, a middle-aged man in a plain round neck robe came out, with a refined face and a beard under his chin. When he saw Xia Bubble, he bowed and bowed anxiously without putting on airs, and said anxiously: "Su Wenxia The doctor is skilled in medicine. My mother has chest tightness and pain recently, and she is bedridden. I have invited many doctors in the city to treat her, but there is nothing they can do. Not long ago, my mother’s condition worsened and she became blind in both eyes. Eliminate illnesses!"

Although Li Zhixian's words were polite, Xia Buddy knew clearly that he really had no choice but to find him.

Although he has become famous during this period, his foothold in Tongzhou City is not stable. Many people know his name, but they still hold a skeptical attitude towards his medical skills, so it is impossible for Lizhi County to think of him in the first place.

But Xia Buddy didn't mind this little thing, and said, "I don't know where Lingci is?"

Li Zhixian immediately led him into a bedroom.

I saw an old woman with gray hair lying between the brocade embroidered couch, breathing weakly and moaning in pain.

Xia Buddy stepped forward and took her pulse.

Frowning, he looked at Li Zhixian, "When did Lingci's chest tightness and pain start, please be more specific."

"The morning three days ago." Li Zhixian said hastily.

"Then within these three days, have you eaten or defecated?"

"I ate some light porridge, but I didn't have a bowel movement."

Knowing the symptoms, Xia Badao couldn't help but nodded, "Lingci is old, and his body will inevitably decline. The evil wind enters the body, causing qi and blood to stagnate and block, but these symptoms can be treated by ordinary doctors, and they will never be blind. , the biggest possibility is that Ling Ci was injured when he was young, and the old disease relapsed."

Li Zhixian frowned tightly, and lamented: "I was fond of playing when I was young. One day, I went up the mountain with my friends to play and catch rabbits. Unfortunately, I encountered a wild wolf. In desperation, I climbed a short tree to survive. I called out to others. It was my mother who heard it." , Fighting the wild wolf desperately, and other people rushed to save me, and she also suffered a lot of injuries, and her whole body was bloody."

At this point, Li Zhixian had a regretful expression on his face, his face was pale and he was downcast.

Xia Buddy said that he had an old illness, and nine out of ten it was at that time that he fell down.

"Women are weak, but mothers are strong. I will definitely do my best to save Lingci." Xia Badao nodded, and was about to let Gao Xing open the medical box he carried with him and take out the needle cover when he heard a voice shouting:

"Lizhi county magistrate Ci is sick, why don't you ask the old man to come and treat him?"

The three people in the room turned their heads to look, only to see a hale-faced old man with a goatee, a man dressed in silk and satin, who looked like a foreigner, walking over.

"Doctor Xue? Didn't you go to visit relatives in other places?" Li Zhixian couldn't help being taken aback when he saw that man.

"Didn't you just return to Tongzhou? The old man heard about the incident in Lizhi County, so he hurried over here. Since the old man is here, there is no need for others. A doctor in the countryside, but he happened to save a few people before he became famous, even if it is a little bit small. How can you be qualified to treat Lizhi County's mother?"

Doctor Xue cast a contemptuous glance at Xia Buddy, walked up to the sick bed, and stretched out his hand to feel his pulse.

Hearing the person speak so impolitely, he frowned immediately when he was happy.

"Who is this man, why does he talk like a dog barking!" Gao Xing scolded unceremoniously.

"Hmph! Who is this old man?" Upon hearing this, Miracle Doctor Xue immediately turned his head, showing a complacent look, and said with a smile: "This old man is from Jishitang! Where is the uneducated girl? The boy next to you Don't discipline her well!"

"Master, what is Jishitang?" Gao Xing asked in confusion.

"You can understand it as an organization established by a group of powerful doctors, including many imperial physicians. Any doctor who can be recognized by Ji Shi Tang will definitely not be inferior in medical skills." Xia Bad explained.

Hearing Xia Baobao's words, the genius doctor Xue was very useful, and said with a smile: "Boy, since you know about Jishitang, you should understand that there is nothing you need to do here. Go back quickly, the old man is about to start his consultation!"

Xia Buddy didn't care about the offending of the genius doctor Xue. Anyway, it doesn't matter which doctor comes to him as long as he can make the patients recover.

But he couldn't help but shook his head and said sincerely: "Master Xue, please forgive me for speaking boldly, with your medical skills, you may really be unable to cure this old man."
