With a flash of teleportation, Xu Ke appeared again at Huichuntang Medical Center in Liangcheng.
This training of hearts in the world of mortals had just begun when he encountered the Five Plague cultivators who were using plague and poison. Because of his personal experience, Xu Ke was extremely resentful of this kind of thing. In a rage, he directly destroyed the Five Plagues cult.
This resulted in... the Hongchen Heart Refining that had not yet started was interrupted and delayed by this matter.
In fact, Xu Ke's soul was also tempered in the process of destroying his family in a rage.
Having clear thoughts naturally also refines the mind.
This experience of fighting and the process of wiping out the Five Plagues cult allowed Xu Ke to release the anger in his heart, and the "uncontrollable" anger was completely vented.
It's not just the "difficulty of peace" in this world.
This anger also included Xu Ke's intense anger caused by touching the scene and recalling his experiences in his previous life.
Being able to release it so freely must be attributed to the Five Plagues Cult!
Releasing his anger and venting his anger made Xu Ke's mind become clearer.
With a thought, he was inspired a hundred times. Xu Ke's ability to release his anger, vent his anger, and clarify his Taoist mind improved a hundred times.
The body is like a bodhi tree, and the mind is like a mirror stand.
Wipe it frequently to avoid dust.
This Buddhist verse actually refers to the way of "refining the heart".
The heart of Taoism is covered with dust and should be wiped clean.
After a hundredfold harvest, Xu Ke's mind became clearer, his true spirit was tempered, and he gained some growth.
Next, we need to continue to experience the world of mortals and refine our Taoist heart.
In fact, Xu Ke's "mind training" is different from that of ordinary practitioners.
This difference is not the unification of the three methods of "Shinto, Demonic Way, Righteous Way", it is just a difference in means. The difference between Xu Ke is the difference in direction.
When practitioners experience the world of mortals, what they practice is the "detached mind". Whether it is "cutting off worldly ties and cutting off cause and effect" or "passing among thousands of flowers without even a leaf touching the body", they all enter the mortal world and transcend it.
This is a condescending attitude, a state of indifference, and a way of refining one's heart in the direction of "the supreme ruthlessness".
Xu Ke disagreed with this.
Immortals cannot be just "immortals" and not "human beings".
One's own "human nature" is the most important part of self-perception. There cannot be no "human nature", only "immortal nature" or "divine nature".
If there is no "human nature" and self-perception has changed, even if you become an immortal and gain enlightenment, then...are you still the one who becomes an immortal?
If every part of a ship is replaced, will it still be the same ship as before?
This question is terrifying to think about!
Xu Ke would not dare to do this anyway. He must maintain his "humanity" and maintain his complete "self-awareness".
Therefore, in the next step of refining the world of mortals, Xu Ke decided to "turn" himself into an ordinary mortal, truly sink into the world of mortals, and experience the world of mortals as an ordinary mortal, which would be more conducive to maintaining "humanity."
The identity of a doctor is very good. In the process of experiencing the world of mortals, you can also study the structure of the human body, especially the body structure of those who practice martial arts, which is of great research value.
The study of physical properties cannot go deep into the microscopic level, so we should start from the macroscopic perspective.
After thinking for a moment, Xu Ke decided on a strategy.
In the next journey of refining one’s mind in the world of mortals, the first task is to truly sink into the mundane world and understand the world. The second task is to start with medicine, study the structure of the human body, and study the physical properties of medicinal materials.
The ancient sages have said: Tao is between heaven and earth and all things.
Starting from the mundane may make it easier to reveal the essence.
Having made up his mind, Xu Ke waved his hand to release a water mirror, changed his clothes in front of the mirror, and returned to the appearance of Xu Zijing, the doctor.
"Don't cast spells unless necessary."
Xu Ke waved away the water mirror technique, straightened his clothes, walked to the front hall, and opened the door of Huichuntang Medical Center.
"Huh? Are you still there?"
As soon as the door of the medical clinic was opened, the neighbor Ding Wanqing looked over in surprise.
This woman was the wealthy businessman who went out to pick up guests after being a good person, and contracted the plague, which triggered the annihilation of the Five Plagues Sect.
"Hey, that's what you said. I'm not dead, so why am I not here?"
Xu Ke smiled and waved his hand, "I just came back after going out!"
"I thought you cheated me of five taels of silver and ran away, never to come back."
Ding Wanqing rolled her eyes at Xu Ke, "What about the epidemic? It scared me so much that I couldn't sleep at night. But... where is the epidemic? Huh, liar!"
"Is it possible that the plague didn't break out because I cured it?"
Xu Ke sighed secretly in his heart. Without me taking action, I don't know how many people would have died in the mortal world of the vast plains!
Because of this, I went into southern Xinjiang in anger, killed the Yuanying, destroyed the golden elixir, and destroyed the Five Plagues cult!
In your eyes, am I actually a liar who defrauded you of five taels of silver?
"snort!"
Ding Wanqing curled her lips, "It's only five taels of silver, and I don't bother to argue with you. The rabbit doesn't even eat the grass beside its nest, so you even lied to the neighbors? You're so evil-hearted."
After saying that, Ding Wanqing flicked her sleeves, turned around and entered the door, too lazy to talk to Xu Ke.
Xu Ke:......
The leader of the Five Plagues, Xu Zijing, was so powerful in southern Xinjiang that countless people were frightened upon hearing his news.
Today, I was actually dumped by an ordinary woman?
Sure enough, as the sage said, only women and villains are difficult to raise!
Forget it, I won’t argue with you.
Xu Ke smiled and didn't care. He got up and went out, planning to make a wave of "advertising" first.
Because he decided to settle down and enter the mortal world, Xu Ke really wanted to live in a mortal way. The previous "Qihuang Curse to Eliminate Plague" covered Liangcheng, causing the medical clinic to have no business in the near future.
Want to live! How can you live without doing business and making money?
Therefore, Xu Ke targeted those ordinary martial arts masters as his business targets. These people fight and kill every day, so of course they will get hurt.
He took out the Five Plagues Divine Flag and turned it into an ordinary medical flag. The four characters "Heal the wounded and save the dying" were displayed on the flag.
Xu Ke closed the door of the medical center, held a "Heal the wounded and rescue the dying" flag, and walked out of the street.
Liangcheng has martial arts schools, escort bureaus, gangs, inspectors, and various martial arts people, all of whom are Xu Ke's potential customers.
Xu Ke held a "Heal the wounded and rescue the dying" flag and walked through the streets and alleys. As he walked, he shouted: "Heal the dying and heal the wounded, and rejuvenate with wonderful hands."
This movement attracted countless glances from passers-by.
But...when there is no illness or pain, who would pay attention to a doctor?
Xu Ke walked all the way without receiving any business.
It wasn't until Xu Ke walked into an urban area that he finally encountered business.
"A bold thief, how dare you steal on the street?"
"Take it!"
As soon as I walked into the downtown area, there was a loud noise in front of me.
A man in Tsing Yi rushed out of the city, flying over the walls and walls.
Behind him, several patrol officers were chasing after him, shouting angrily.
Seeing the man in Tsing Yi climbing up the wall of the square and about to escape, he heard a "whoosh" sound and a crossbow arrow passed through the air and plunged into the chest of the man in Tsing Yi with a pop.
The man in green screamed and fell down from the wall of the square, falling in front of Xu Ke with a "bang".
Business...isn't it coming?
Xu Ke smiled, waved the "Heal the wounded and rescue the dying" flag in his hand, and said to the man in Tsing Yi who was bleeding on the ground: "Heal the dying and heal the wounded, and rejuvenate with a wonderful hand. Does this young hero need medical treatment?"
"Save...save..."
"Do you agree to ask me to treat you? Okay."
Xu Ke nodded, "Then let me talk about the price first! The starting price is one tael for minor injuries, the starting price is ten taels for slander, and the starting price is one hundred taels for serious injuries. Your injuries are considered serious injuries, right?"
"Re...save..."
"You also admit that the injury is serious and you are willing to ask me for treatment, right?"
Xu Ke nodded, "If you are seriously injured, it can be divided into disabling injuries, fatal injuries, and near-death injuries, and the prices are different. Let me tell you the price first!"
"Pfft!"
Several officers chased after him. Seeing this situation and hearing Xu Ke's words, they couldn't help laughing.
"Just don't make an offer, he's even mad."
A middle-aged officer walked up and waved to Xu Ke, "Okay, it's none of your business, he's dead."
"He's not dead yet!"
Xu Ke smiled and said, "How about I revive him first and then ask him for money?"
"Huh? Can this be saved?"
Another officer next to him smiled and shook his head, "You save me! I want to see how you can survive!"
Several other officers also stopped and looked at Xu Ke with interest.
Anyway, the thief has been caught, it doesn't matter whether he lives or dies, just watch a show.
"Then I'll take action!"
Xu Ke said hello, thrust the "Life-saving and Healing the Wounded Flag" on the ground, inserted it aside, then took out a box of silver needles and inserted them near the wound of the man in Tsing Yi.
The Synopsis of the Golden Chamber is a medical manual, best at treating injuries and illnesses.
The silver needle pricked down, sealing the blood vessels so that the man's wound would no longer bleed. Immediately, Xu Ke took out another silver needle and pricked it into the temple of the man in green.
The silver needle accurately penetrated into the acupuncture point of the brain. Due to this stimulation, the man in Tsing Yi, who was seriously injured and on the verge of death, came to his senses instantly.
"Ahem..."
After coughing several times, the man in green resumed his breathing and opened his eyes.
"Live! Live! Really live!"
"Oh my god! Can you save the dead?"
"It can really save lives and heal the wounded, it can really bring youth back to life."
"A miraculous doctor! A miraculous doctor!"
The guards' eyes widened and they looked at Xu Ke as if they were gods.
For these patrol officers who often deal with "criminals", who hasn't been injured at some point?
Miracle doctors like Xu Ke are life-saving gods!
"Of course the dead cannot be saved."
Xu Ke shook his head, "He has just died, and he is not dead yet. If another quarter of an hour passes, even the gods will not be able to save him."
While talking, Xu Ke took out another pair of scissors, cut off the tail of the crossbow arrow, turned to the officer and asked: "Does the crossbow arrow have barbs?"
"Uh...yes!"
The officer who fired the crossbow quickly answered.
"This is a bit more troublesome."
Xu Ke frowned, "However, it's not a big problem."
Saying that, Xu Ke took out the needle box again and stuck a circle of silver needles on the chest of the man in Tsing Yi.
Reaching out his hand to help the man in Tsing Yi sit up, Xu Ke smiled at the man in Tsing Yi and said, "Take it easy."
"What?"
The man in green was stunned and before he could react, he saw Xu Ke slap the arrow shaft heavily on his back.
With a "pop" sound, the crossbow arrow pierced his chest.
"ah……"
The man in green let out a shrill howl.
This is not over yet!
Xu Ke reached out and grabbed the arrow that emerged from his chest, pulled hard, and the entire crossbow arrow was pulled out of his body.
"ah……"
The man in green let out another shrill howl of pain.
This operation made the mouths of several guards nearby twitch.
The miracle doctor is indeed a miracle doctor, but his methods are a bit rough. It can save your life, or it can cause you to lose half your life!
"It hurts a little bit, but I can't die."
Xu Ke tore open the Tsing Yi man's clothes, took out the medicine bottle, sprinkled some golden sore medicine on the wound, then tore the Tsing Yi man's clothes into strips and tied them to the wound.
"okay."
Xu Ke clapped his hands and threw the golden sore medicine bottle to the man in Tsing Yi, "Change the medicine every three days, and the wound will be healed in half a month."
"Thanks……"
The man in green thanked him with difficulty.
"It starts with a serious injury of one hundred taels. You are suffering from a near-death injury, at least three hundred taels. Pay it!"
"Uh...okay!"
The man in Tsing Yi quickly took out three hundred-tael silver notes and handed them to Xu Ke.
Xu Ke reached out to take it, turned to look at the few guards behind him, took out a banknote and handed it over, "You guys have worked hard chasing the thief, take it to drink tea!"
"This...don't dare, don't dare."
Several officers still respected Xu Ke, a miracle doctor.
If you are on duty, you will inevitably get hurt. This is a person who can save lives, so don't dare to offend him.
"Take it!"
Xu Ke forced the banknote over and said, "My name is Xu Zijing. I opened a medical clinic in Xingzi Hutong called Huichun Hall. I would like to ask for your continued care in the future."
If Xu Ke doesn't come to save people, all the money on this man in green will belong to the guards. From a certain perspective, Xu Ke's rescue was like robbing the officers of their money.
"Then...thank you so much for the reward from Miracle Doctor Xu."
The leading middle-aged officer took the banknote and bowed his hand to Xu Ke, "If you have any orders from Dr. Xu from now on, just say hello. We brothers will be on call."
"It's easy to talk about."
Xu Ke bowed his hands to everyone, raised the "Saving the Life-saving Flag" and continued walking through the streets.
At the end of the day, Xu Ke actually did a few businesses.
A carriage lost control and injured someone, a "Ximen official" was knocked unconscious by a mallet thrown from upstairs, and there were several street fighters who smashed each other's heads.
The injury caused by the loss of control of the carriage was just a fracture. After Xu Ke set the bones casually, he tied a brace and it was done.
The "high official of Ximen" was beaten unconscious with a stick, woke up with an acupuncture, and applied some ointment for promoting blood circulation and dispersing blood stasis, and he was cured.
Both businesses were pretty good, and the money was very satisfying.
The gang of street fighters opened the film and smashed their heads with bricks. Although both parties were grateful for Xu Ke's saving grace, they... both had no money.
Among the low-level bastards, apart from being "hot-blooded" and easily deceived, few of them have money.
Xu Ke had no choice but to provide free clinics, which can be regarded as "advertising investment"!
After half a month of this, Dr. Xu from the "Huichun Tang" in Xingzi Hutong has become famous in the world.
