"Chu'er, Master, Master is leaving, please be well..." Dr. Li held Li Shichu's hand angrily and reluctantly told his worried little apprentice.
"Master, don't worry. I have inherited your medical skills and will be able to support myself in the future. Moreover, I can also prepare some drugs and poisons. You don't have to worry about my personal safety." Li Shichu comforted Dr. Li softly.
Doctor Li used his last strength to shake her hand, looked at her for the last time, tilted his head, closed his eyes, and lost his breath.
Li Shichu closed his eyes, suppressed the sourness in his heart, put Dr. Li's shroud on, and then went out to find villagers to help with the funeral.
Life is not easy for everyone these days, and many people die in the village every year. However, Dr. Li was very skilled in medicine and kind-hearted, and people nearby received a lot of kindness from him. Therefore, everyone was very sad when they learned of his death. Li Shichu first informed With this news, they came to help without saying a word.
The funeral took three days. After Li Shichu buried Doctor Li, he planned to pack up and leave Taohua Village.
Taohua Village is still safer than other places now, but she knows that in a few years, the war will extend here, and the village will still not be able to escape the fate of being looted and ravaged.
Li Shichu mentioned it to the village chief and said that their village might be affected by war in the future and asked him to prepare early. Seeing the solemn look on her face, the village chief listened to her words and took them to heart.
Li Shichu had no worries, so he changed into men's clothes early one morning and left Taohua Village without saying goodbye to the villagers.
She actually didn't have any destination. After all, in the last years of the dynasty, various places were experiencing natural disasters, frequent uprisings, and chaos. There was no peace anywhere.
No matter where she went, she became a free and uninhibited traveling doctor. Naturally, her medical skills were superb. She saved many people along the way, and she gradually gained some fame, but not all of her reputation was good. , because she is both good and evil.
She would save any patient she liked, no matter how serious the condition was; no matter how much money she paid, she would not care about the patient she liked; she charged very high medical fees for rich people, but some poor people As a patient, she can sometimes take nothing.
Naturally, some people can't stand her behavior, but she has excellent medical skills, strong martial arts, and can even prepare all kinds of weird poisons, so others can't do anything to her.
"Doctor Li, how is my son's condition? Can he still recover?" A disheveled woman asked Li Shichu with red eyes.
"He's not sick, he just ate poisonous mushrooms. Give him a bowl of muddy water first and let him vomit out the contents in his stomach." Li Shichu said to the woman.
"Eat poisonous mushrooms?" The woman was stunned when she heard Li Shichu's first two sentences. She didn't even listen to the subsequent words that asked her to fill her son with muddy water, and began to cry in grief, "Eat it." How can poisonous mushrooms survive? My poor son, why are you so miserable? You didn't starve to death in the village, but died on the way to escape..."
Li Shichu frowned, seeing that the woman couldn't hear anything anymore, so he could only say to the dumbfounded middle-aged man next to him: "If you don't want your son to die, hurry up and get some muddy water!"
The middle-aged man trembled: "Can my son be saved?"
"Yes! But if you delay any longer, he will have no choice but to wait for death." Li Shichu said indifferently, this couple is really unreliable.
"I'll get muddy water right away!" The middle-aged man immediately took out a broken bowl and dug some dirt next to it. Then he found water in a puddle and made a bowl of muddy water.
"Give it to your son." Li Shichu ordered. The muddy water is naturally very dirty and may cause various diseases, but now it is more important to spit out the poisonous mushrooms in the little boy's stomach. Otherwise, he will die, and he is still afraid of being dirty. Disease caused by water? What's more, these diseases can be completely cured by Li Shichu.
The couple quickly poured the muddy water into their son's mouth. As expected, the little boy began to vomit after a while. The refugees who were watching jumped away for fear of being stained by the dirty things he vomited out.
After he vomited up, Li Shichu stuffed a small pill into his mouth, and then wrote a prescription for the boy's father: "Your son's life is not in danger for the time being, but I don't have any medicine. You can go look for it yourself in the mountains, or go to Buy medicine somewhere with people."
"I, I don't know the words, nor the herbs, how can I pick them?" the middle-aged man said anxiously, and then looked at Li Shichu pleadingly, "Doctor, can you think of a way?"
Li Shichu pointed in a direction and said to him: "There is a small town just over an hour's walk straight over there. You can carry your son to the town to buy medicine."
The middle-aged man paused and looked at Li Shichu with a sad face. He hesitated to speak, but Li Shichu ignored him. She asked him to go to the town to buy medicine and gave him directions. What else did he want? Do you still have to give him money yourself? This is taking her for granted.
Although this family of three looks unkempt and ragged, they look similar to other refugees, but if you look closely, you can see that the three of them are not as skinny and numb as other refugees. Instead, they are quite energetic. Otherwise, they would not be like that just now. Women don't cry so loudly.
Probably the reason their son ate poisonous mushrooms was not because he was hungry, but because he was naughty and curious.
Li Shichu didn't charge for medical treatment for their son. It would be too much for them to think too much. If Li Shichu was offended, she could take back the prescription she prescribed. Anyway, it was not her son who died.
The middle-aged man knew that Li Shichu would not be kind enough to pay for his medicine, so he carried his son on his back and took his wife towards the town.
The group of refugees lost three members of their family, but it was still huge. Li Shichu asked people about it and found that these people had left their hometowns because of drought at home.
There is no harvest from the fields, but the government still sends people to collect taxes, but there is no harvest at all. Where will the grain come from to pay taxes? Doesn’t this force everyone to die? So the people in that area fled.
Li Shichu walked along with the large team casually and occasionally rescued a few patients, so everyone had a good impression of her. They thought she was kind-hearted and did not charge for medical treatment... This was all an illusion. Li Shichu knew that they were refugees and had no symptoms on her body. How can I pay the medical fees if I have no money and no food? She's not that cold-blooded yet.
"Doctor Li, where do you come from? Is there a disaster in your hometown?" A thin old woman asked Li Shichu curiously, "I think you have good medical skills. If your hometown hadn't been in disaster, you wouldn't have left your hometown. right."
"My home is in a place called Taohua Village in Changning County, Changning County. There was no disaster there, but I was the only one left at home. I was afraid that I would be arrested and sent to fight next time, so I had to leave." Li Shichu asked. He made an excuse.
