Zhang Ji, courtesy name Zhongjing, was born in Nieyang County, Nanyang.
He was also one of the three miracle doctors of Jian'an later.
Since Zhang Xiu occupied Guanzhong, he opened up the Wuguan Road, the main road to Guanzhong from Nanyang, and the Chang'an scientific expedition was held, which invisibly promoted the connection between Nanyang and Chang'an.
In the troubled times, Zhang Ji didn't want to get involved in the battle, so he found a place to live in seclusion and study medicine. When he heard that there was a plague in Xiaoguan, he did not hesitate to take his servants and go to Xiaoguan for medical treatment.
After the plague broke out in Xiaoguan, many doctors appeared in the plains and opened stalls, claiming to be able to cure all diseases, but the medicine was very expensive.
Among them, the most popular one is the newly opened "Wu's Liangkang" pharmacy. The Wu brothers, Wu Zhao and Wu Zhao, attend the clinic for medical treatment. Because of the good publicity, there are many believers in Xiaoguan people, and there is a queue at the door of Wu's Liangkang. A long queue formed for treatment, waiting to get medicine.
Zhang Xiu led the army into Xiaoguan.
He ordered Xu Shu as the commander-in-chief and Ma Chao as the general to lead the army south to attack Huchuquan. He himself stayed in Xiaoguan to help the people of Xiaoguan tide over the difficulties. After the joint persuasion of Xu Shu, Yan Xiang and others failed, he only Able to lead the army south, Zhang Xiu left a thousand men and horses to garrison Xiaoguan.
Although Zhang Xiu came from later generations, he himself was not a medical practitioner and did not know how to treat plagues at all.
But he still knows the most basic ways to prevent the spread of the virus.
However, the queues for medicine on the main street of Xiaoguan caught his attention. According to later records, there were no targeted herbal medicines for treating plague in the late Han Dynasty. What medicine was this Wu Liangkang selling?
The next day, Zhang Xiu put on special "masks" for him, Hu Che'er and the July 8th soldiers who were following them, and walked towards Wu's Liangkang on the main street.
There were two long queues on the street.
The person in line in front of Zhang Xiu was a middle-aged man wearing coarse clothes. Zhang Xiu asked: "My dear friend, let me ask, is the medicine you are queuing up to buy effective?"
The middle-aged man turned around, and Zhang Xiu saw that there were traces of wind and sand unique to people from the northwest on his face, and he had a pair of single eyelids. He said, "Well (I) don't know if this medicine is effective or not. I heard from others that it is very effective. Just take the medicine out and have a drink and it will be fine. The woman and baby in our family are infected. No matter if it is true or not, I bought it first and gave it a try. I heard that this medicine is very expensive!"
“Has anyone who bought it tried it?”
"This...uh, I don't know, I haven't heard of it either."
The middle-aged man shook his head slightly, narrowed his eyes slightly and looked at Zhang Xiu, then turned away and stopped talking.
"Collect the money, collect the money!"
There was a shout from the front, and then a man in rich clothes came out with a basket in his hand. "There are too many people. Please pay first and then queue up to get medicine. Each person will pay thirty five baht."
"Ah! Thirty pieces?"
When the middle-aged man heard the price, his expression changed.
Zhang Xiu lowered his head and saw a handful of five baht coins in his hand, expected to be no more than twenty.
"snort!"
Suddenly, someone next to him snorted coldly and shouted loudly: "How can there be no reason to collect money first without checking your pulse? This is obviously a quack."
"Just... you don't look at any symptoms, and you just ask for money first? You don't even take any medicine, how do you know how much it costs?"
"You can't be a liar, can you?"
Others started talking, none of them were willing to pay first, and there were more people who didn't have that much money.
Zhang Xiu looked sideways and saw that the man was about forty years old, with a square face, extraordinary bearing, and stern eyes that were not afraid of the money collector above who was glaring at him.
When the money collector saw someone making trouble, he was furious and said, "You beast, if you want to treat a disease, just pay for the medicine. If you don't want to be cured, just get out of here. If you dare to talk here, come here and beat him to death!"
Suddenly, several guys ran out of the medicine hall, holding wooden sticks and preparing to take action.
Zhang Xiu stood calmly. He wanted to see what this person could do since he was not afraid of these people.
result.
The man held his head high and shouted, "This is under the rule of Marquis Xuan. If you dare to kill people in the street, aren't you afraid that the Marquis will punish you?"
The leader smiled contemptuously: "Xuanhou? Haha! I am your Lord Marquis! Beat me!"
"Be bold!"
Hu Che'er roared loudly, took one step forward and rushed in front of those people. His eyes were wide-eyed and his face was filled with murderous intent. He was so frightened that the men took a few steps back and did not dare to move.
"You...who are you?"
The leader swallowed, suppressed the fear in his heart, raised his head and looked at the towering Hu Che'er and asked.
"Hmph!"
Hu Che'er sneered, "I am under Xuanhou's tent, and I am Hu Mighty General Hu Che'er!"
"Ah! This..."
The money collector was so frightened that he could not speak.
"I would like to see how the doctor here makes the diagnosis." As he said this, Hu Che'er strode forward. The collector was trembling and did not dare to stop him, so everyone made way for him.
The guards behind him immediately stood around Zhang Xiu.
Everyone followed Hu Cheer into the hall.
Two fat men were standing in front of the case in the hall. They squinted their eyes and looked incomprehensible. Suddenly they saw many people pouring in, especially the leader Hu Che'er, who had a fierce look on his face. They screamed: "You...who are you?" Yeah! If you want to get medicine, just go out and pay and wait in line, otherwise don’t blame me for not..."
Hu Che'er stepped up to him and said fiercely: "I'm here to see how you treat patients. If you dare to fake it, I will kill you." As he said this, he pulled out his self-defense knife.
The two brothers Wu Zhao and Wu Zhao turned pale with fright.
As a last resort, he hurriedly grabbed the wrist of the person in front of him and started to feel his pulse.
Seeing this, the man from before sneered: "Hmph! You can't measure the size of a person, shake hands with enough, don't understand pulse, don't know medical skills, yet you dare to open a pharmacy and prescribe medicines? He is truly an unforgivable criminal."
"Oh!" When Zhang Xiu heard this, he looked at the middle-aged man and asked, "This gentleman also knows medical skills?"
The man twisted his beard and said: "I, Zhang Zhongjing, have devoted myself to the study of medicine for many years, specializing in treating rampant plagues. When I heard about the spread of the plague in Xiaoguan, I opened a medicine hall for consultation, but no one came. I heard that the medicine hall here was overcrowded, so I came here to take a look. Unexpectedly, They turned out to be two shameless people."
Zhang Zhongjing?
Zhang Xiu was stunned for a moment.
Immediately overjoyed.
Now Zhang Zhongjing is studying the spread of plague germs painstakingly, and his reputation has not yet spread completely, but others don't know that Zhang Xiu, who comes from a later generation, knows what this person is capable of. As long as this person comes to Xiaoguan, the people of Xiaoguan will There is help.
Zhang Xiu said happily: "Having a gentleman in Xiaoguan is really a blessing for Xiaoguan!"
"Who are you?"
"This is my lord, Marquis Xuanwei!" Zhang Qian introduced.
The whole audience!
Silence!
Everyone froze on the spot.
The dignified Marquis Xuanwei, Yongzhou Mu, and General Zuo were actually in Xiaoguan, where the plague was rampant.
Zhang Ji was stunned and asked in disbelief: "You... are the Marquis?"
"It doesn't look like it?" Zhang Xiu laughed.
"No, it's not unlikeable, it's just a bit unbelievable," Zhang Ji calmed down, clasped his fists and said respectfully, "Master Hou cares about the people of the world, and it is Xiaoguan's blessing that he can stoop down here and pay attention to the lives and deaths of the people of Xiaoguan. Such a blessing."
Zhang Xiu said loudly: "Xiaoguan is now suffering from the plague, which is a disaster for the people. How can I stand by and watch? A large number of medicinal herbs have been transported here from Chang'an. I would like to ask you to take charge of the overall situation and relieve the people of Xiaoguan from the plague." "While saying this, he bowed to Zhang Ji.
Zhang Ji was startled and quickly bowed: "Master Hou has broken the villain. This is the duty of a doctor."
"Everyone!"
Zhang Xiu faced everyone and said, "This plague started due to war. I, Zhang Xiu, am responsible to the end. All herbal medicines will be distributed free of charge. Starting from tomorrow, everyone will be under martial law at home and not allowed to move around at will. I will send people to distribute the medicines door to door."
"Master Hou is truly a benevolent king in the world!"
The man from the northwest who couldn't afford it just now prostrated himself in tears and cried.
"Thank you so much, Mr. Hou!"
Others fell to the ground in gratitude.
The two brothers Wu Zhao and Wu Zhao on the side were trembling.
Zhang Xiu glanced at him and said: "Take them down. If someone really dies from the medicine, kill them!"
"Here!"
Hu Cheer agreed and sneered at the two people.
Wu Zhao and Wu Zhao were scared to death.
