It was already dark at this time, and Zhao Chuan came to a cemetery in the wild.
According to what he learned during the day, he used a few silver needles to seal certain acupuncture points on his body, blocking the rise of Yang Qi in the lower body and allowing the Yang Qi in the upper body to quickly leak out.
After a while, Zhao Chuan saw a shadow floating in the grave.
After just one glance, Zhao Chuan pulled out the silver needle. It was so scary.
It's not fun to force open your Third Eye to see ghosts.
It turns out that intersex people live together in the world. Zhao Chuan understood this and wondered if there was a way to see those people who died after the Zhao family was exterminated.
The next day, Zhao Chuan returned the rent. He knew that it would be useless to count on anyone else. He didn't know when Xiaoyaozi would come, and he couldn't just wait around.
At noon, Zhao Chuan arrived at Nanfeng County.
After walking around in front of the county government office twice, Zhao Chuan felt that what the county magistrate said was not necessarily true. He was a poor boy and had no special medical skills. If the Marquis really wanted to recruit talents, he was not qualified.
When I listened to Qiang Gen that night, most of the time it was the old county magistrate who was making up stories to coax his wife to sleep. It was nothing more than a bedtime story.
The three of them just encountered official officials who wanted to spend some money on their heads.
After Zhao Chuan figured it out, he found an inn on the street to stay and asked the waiter to prepare a food box. Then he picked up some food and went to the county government office calmly.
To visit the prison, you have to go through the back door, which is at the southwest corner of the county government compound.
Zhao Chuan, dressed like a young master, appeared at the back door of the prison. As soon as the guard saw him, he immediately came over to ask.
Zhao Chuan asked whether there were three people, grandfather and grandson, locked in there a few days ago?
The jailer guarding the gate said that was right and asked who Zhao Chuan was. Zhao Chuan said that he was a distant relative of the three people and had just come to see them after getting the news.
The jailer guarding the gate said, "Why did you come here? We are pointing out rewards to you family members."
The jailer said that they usually had no salary, and all they had to eat were tips from inmates visiting the prison. Only the head prisoner could get a few taels of silver a month.
Zhao Chuan smiled and said he understood, took out a handful of copper coins and gave them to the jailer.
The jailer immediately ushered Zhao Chuan in with a smile on his face and asked what Zhao Chuan was carrying. Zhao Chuan said it was some food and casually gave him a bag.
After entering the prison, there were also supervisory guards inside, and Zhao Chuan gave him another handful of copper coins.
Zhao Chuan followed the guards again. The place inside was not small, and many people were detained, including both men and women. There were no distinction between male and female prisoners. The air was polluted and the conditions were very poor.
With many twists and turns, the guards led Zhao Chuan through the gates one after another.
When Zhao Chuan was led to the prison of Mr. Jin and the others, Zhao Chuan could not help but frown.
There were more than a dozen people imprisoned in a prison that was less than two feet long and wide, and there was almost no room for them to lie down.
Seeing Zhao Chuan's arrival, the three of them were very excited. They were about to say something but Zhao Chuan raised his hand to stop them.
Across the wooden fence of the prison cell, Zhao Chuan opened the food box and distributed it to the three of them. While whispering that he would come here often, he thrust a small paper ball into Mr. Jin's hand when no one was paying attention.
In the following days, Zhao Chuan came every day, sometimes three times a day in the morning, noon and evening. One was to deliver meals, and the other was to take the opportunity to chat with the guards and cell bosses, and he became more and more familiar with them.
At night, Zhao Chuan appeared at the back door of the prison again, followed by two hotel clerks, carrying a large multi-layered food box.
After tipping the guards guarding the gate, the guys carried the food into the prison.
As soon as you enter the prison, there is a large table, which is usually where the guards on the night shift eat, drink and gamble.
After Zhao Chuan went in, he told the guards that they had worked hard these days. Let's have a drink together and please take care of the three of them in the future. After that, he gave some money to a few of them.
The guards were so happy when they saw it, they kept talking about trivial matters to ensure that the three people would not be wronged.
Smelling the aroma of wine and meat, the jailer outside the door also came in with a smile, and Zhao Chuan said to eat together.
After eating for a while, several guards smelled of alcohol and said that they liked a discerning person like Zhao Chuan. Although he was young, he was very good at getting things done.
Zhao Chuan smiled and said, yes, you will have money to spend and wine to eat when you come, and the people in prison will not be punished. Both ends are good.
After eating for a while, Zhao Chuan said that they should be let out for some fresh air and some water. After being locked up for these days, it was very difficult to eat, drink and sleep in there. They were afraid that they would be taken out before the owner came to file a lawsuit. People were killed.
The guards asked for what they wanted, and you paid for the drinks. It was up to you to let him out to play for a while.
A guard went over and brought the three of them over.
Mr. Jin started coughing after drinking a few mouthfuls of water. Zhao Chuan said that the air inside was too bad, especially for the two children. Staying here for a long time would be harmful to the body.
Zhao Chuan winked, and the two children started coughing vigorously. Seeing the guards frowning, Zhao Chuan immediately took out a 50-tael silver note and put it on the table, asking if he could let these three people come here every night from now on. Stay at the exit for a while to get some fresh air?
Seeing that the guards looked troubled, Zhao Chuan added another 50-tael silver note and said that no one would see him at night anyway. Even if he let some wind out of the exit, they wouldn't be able to escape even if they were told to do so. Drop it?
Several guards looked at each other, and finally looked at the banknotes on the table and said with a smile, "Who has a grudge against money?"
At that moment, Zhao Chuan asked the two guards to take the three men out of the dungeon for some fresh air, while he stayed behind to accompany the others and continue to drink.
But after waiting for a long time, the two guards did not come back with the three of them.
A guard immediately walked up with a knife in his hands, but as soon as he reached the exit, he came back and shouted, "Oh no, the prisoner is gone!"
The wine drinkers were shocked when they heard this, and immediately went out to take a look, only to see that the two guards and the three men were nowhere to be seen.
Zhao Chuan immediately shouted, "Oh, you are so brave, how dare you take my relatives away. Are you trying to kill people or kidnap people? I'm going to the county hall to sue you!"
Several guards hurriedly said, "Goodbye, young master, we don't dare to lose people. We are still counting on you to come and give us money every day."
Several people were looking around, and Zhao Chuan also pretended to be anxious and walked around nearby, and immediately ran away when others didn't pay attention.
When Zhao Chuan walked to a deserted place, he threw off the pedal and ran away. He chased south along the official road for a while, and finally saw a carriage with a shed, and Mr. Jin was driving anxiously.
Mr. Jin saw Zhao Chuan coming and handed him the seat, and Zhao Chuan continued to drive quickly.
Mr. Jin said that the two officials fell down soon after they came out. It took a lot of effort for me to drag them to a secret place and hide them.
Zhao Chuan said he would pick me up at the place written on the note. Is it easy to find the carriage I hid in advance?
"It's easy to find. According to the place you mentioned, this carriage is hidden in a small alley. I'll leave as soon as I get on the carriage. It's very easy to drive." Mr. Jin said.
Zhao Chuan said that, but this small place is full of donkeys. I spent a lot of effort to get this carriage at a high price from a shop that sells goods.
Mr. Jin said that his benefactor had spent money again and he really didn’t know how to be grateful in the future.
Zhao Chuan said it was okay and laughed it off.
The boy in the shed, Jin Xiaojian, said, "Brother, you are so powerful. What can you give those two officials to eat?" When they came out of the dungeon, a gust of wind blew them and they fell down.
Zhao Chuan smiled and said that it was a kind of intoxicating drug that would fall down soon after being exposed to the cold wind. It was called falling when exposed to the cold wind and was mixed with wine.
The girl Jin Yuhe said that you also ate it, why didn’t you pour it out? Zhao Chuan said that I would take the antidote beforehand.
The boy said that I also want to learn. Zhao Chuan said that we should wait until you grow up.
The boy said that I am not much younger than you.
Zhao Chuan laughed and said to get some sleep quickly, maybe he would be jailed again if he caught up with him. The two children were so frightened that they stopped talking.
Zhao Chuan was very satisfied. He didn't expect that the techniques in "Essential Medical Skills and Miscellaneous Matters" were really practical. Yes, he would have to study it carefully in the future.
This is the official road. Although it is nighttime, it is very wide and the horses seem to know the road. This road leads to Mengcheng.
After walking hurriedly all night, we arrived at a small town after dawn. Everyone had something to eat and then continued on their way.
Before dark, they finally left the territory of Nanfeng County and Jiangzhou County. The people in the car breathed a sigh of relief and then found a place to stay and rest.
The next day, the group of four people continued their journey to Mengcheng. At this time, the three Jin family members were accompanied by Zhao Chuan and were in a good mood. The two children, Jin Xiaojian and Jin Yuhe, even temporarily forgot about the Jin family's disaster, chatting and laughing all the way, and arrived in Mengcheng five days later. Uncle's house.
After explaining the purpose of their visit, everyone couldn't help but shed a lot of tears. After hearing about it, several female relatives couldn't help but cry together holding their two children.
For Zhao Chuan, his uncle and his whole family are naturally sincerely grateful and treat him like honored guests.
Uncle Yuhe's family is a family of world-class doctors. The whole family is a doctor. They own a large medical clinic. They are quite popular in the local area and are considered a middle-class family in Mengcheng.
The Cheng family also has a large population, including grandfather Cheng Guangyi, uncle Cheng Shunzhang, aunt Xu, cousin Cheng Zhiwen, cousin Cheng Shulan, cousin Cheng Shujie, and there are also maids and handymen in the family.
The Cheng family originally had a courtyard, and a few years ago they bought an adjacent one. They built it as a residence on the left, and a medical clinic facing the street on the right. There are more than a dozen main rooms and side rooms in the back. There is a mountain not far behind, separated only by a bamboo forest.
As a benevolent guest of the Jin family, Zhao Chuan was highly respected by the Cheng family, and Cheng Shunzhang and his wife treated him as their own child.
Cheng Zhiwen and Cheng Shulan usually study medicine with their grandfather and father in the medical clinic. Yuhe, sister, brother and Shulan spend all day together.
Shu Lan was eighteen years old and two years older than Zhao Chuan. She was smart and lively, with a handsome and slim face, but her personality was wilder than that of a boy.
Cheng Shulan took Zhao Chuan shopping and hiking whenever she had free time. She did not shy away from the difference between men and women, which often made Zhao Chuan feel extremely embarrassed. This always reminded Zhao Chuan of Qinglian, his childhood sweetheart in Zhaojiacun.
Although Cheng Shulan already regarded Zhao Chuan as a close friend, Zhao Chuan often wondered, such a good girl is neither stupid nor ugly, but she is already eighteen years old, why is she still not married at such an old age? She is eighteen years old, and in the eyes of adults, she is an old girl. If she does not get married, her parents will be disgraced.
After more than a month, Zhao Chuan bid farewell to Cheng Shunzhang, but Cheng Shunzhang retained Zhao Chuan as an apprentice in the medical hospital.
Cheng Shunzhang said that since you have studied medicine, treated Grandpa Yu He's internal injuries and saved three lives twice, such a great kindness cannot be repaid, so I am willing to teach you what I have learned throughout my life.
Zhao Chuan explained that he still had some things to do and could not stay here for a long time. He had been free and loose since he was a child, so he might not be able to withstand strict restrictions.
Cheng Shunzhang was not willing to let Zhao Chuan leave. He understood that Zhao Chuan was wandering around when he left, and he could not repay the kindness he had given to the life-savior of his nephew's family of three. Besides, I really like Zhao Chuan from the bottom of my heart, and I still have some small thoughts in my heart...
Cheng Shunzhang thought for a long time and said that you don't need to be a disciple, you don't have to sit for a fixed consultation, you can come and go freely, and you can stay in a fixed room. You can come when you want and leave when you want. The salary will be based on the apprenticeship for the time being, and it will depend on the situation in the future. In short, as long as you stay, it will be fine.
Zhao Chuan saw that they were indeed sincere in retaining the person. He looked at the old man Cheng Shunzhang's eager eyes. After hearing about it, Mr. Jin also came with his two children to ask for help. Cheng Zhiwen and Cheng Shulan also came, especially Shulan's pair. The big, watery eyes stared at him intently...
Zhao Chuan couldn't refuse, so he had to say that he didn't want the salary, but just took care of food and housing.
After working for a few months, Zhao Chuan was actually just doing odd jobs, sitting in clinics, picking up medicine, grinding medicine powder, everything, and no one except Shu Lan paid any attention to him.
However, during this period of time, the popularity of the medical clinic has increased a lot, and many difficult and complicated diseases have been cured. No one knew that Zhao Chuan secretly changed the prescription and added medicine.
