Chapter 17 Chapter Sixteen

The old beggar gave me a sideways look, and said with a sneer, "If I don't teach you, what do I ask you to do? You are not a pretty girl, so it's fun to tease you?" Although I was embarrassed, I was overjoyed, and I didn't pay attention to the old beggar's ridicule. This corpse poison tortured me day and night. I was lucky enough to hear the detoxification prescription today. How can I not be happy.For a moment, I didn't know what to say. "Little friend, what's your name?" The old beggar got up from the ground, patted his buttocks, and asked. "Xu Yiran!" I hurriedly replied respectfully.

"You are also a medical student, right?" the old beggar looked me up and down for a moment, then asked again. I nodded hurriedly, this old beggar seems to know me very well?But I don't know him at all. "This is an ancient folk prescription, passed down through the ages!" The old beggar laughed strangely. When I heard this, I immediately felt dizzy. Could it be that this old beggar wants to take me in as a disciple?Although the master is not around, even if I join another teacher, he doesn't know about it, but the master treats me well. It can even be said that I can achieve what I am today, thanks to the master's teaching, even I was poisoned by the corpse. It is also Master's painstaking research, which has found out the formula to suppress toxicity, which has kept me alive until now.

Seeing that I didn't speak, the old beggar immediately laughed strangely: "So, this folk prescription can't be given to you easily, you have to do something for me..." "I don't know if the old man needs my help?" I breathed a sigh of relief, as long as I wasn't asked to join his teacher, it would be easy to do other things. "You'd better leave the matter of the Niu family alone!" said the old beggar Huazi. "Oh?" I was stunned, the doctor's parents thought, how can there be any reason to refuse to save? "Why?" I asked in surprise.

"You should know that the old man is not sick, right?" the old beggar shook his head. I was stunned, could it really be what I suspected?When I checked the pulse just now, I became suspicious in my heart, just thinking that the old man Niu is already old, who can go to find an old man if he can't eat enough? The old beggar said again: "Since you know, what are you doing?" "That said, if it can be cured, I still want to try it. If it doesn't work, firstly, it's because I'm not good at medicine, and secondly, it's the fate of the old man, so I can't blame others. If it's because the old man is sick, I just ignore it. This is not my way of life." I shook my head lightly.

"Forget it, since you want to take care of it, I don't care about your affairs. I just want to warn you that the person who attacked is not a good person." The old beggar said. "Yes, thank you for reminding me, old man. I don't know if there is anything you can do for me, old man?" I hurriedly asked respectfully. "Is there anyone else in your family?" asked the old beggar. I hurriedly replied: "There is also the elderly grandma!" "You go back and find someone to take care of grandma. After half a month, come here and find me. Go out with me for a few days, and I will give you a prescription." The old beggar said, no matter what I did, he was already humming the lotus flower, and walked to the other side of the street. walk aside.

Being interrupted by the old beggar, I was not in the mood to seek any medical skills, so I turned around and walked back.It's just that walking on two legs is not as good as Niu's jeep, and he didn't rush back to the village until the sun was setting. Grandma was still the same as usual, sluggish and only liked to sit, and Er Yatou's ugly face became more and more terrifying.In exchange for the prescription in the hands of the old beggar, I have to go out with him in five days, and I don't know how long it will be. The longer the delay, the more difficult it is to treat this girl's face. It is better to prescribe the medicine as soon as possible—— It can be regarded as a thought.

I asked the second girl to come here early tomorrow morning to heal the ghost-faced snake on her face. The second girl heard this and went happily. At night, I took care of my grandma to sleep, so I quickly started to prepare the medicine. The ghost-faced snake on the second girl's face Gu, not one dose of medicine can be effective, so I have to prepare all the medicines to be used. This busy work, before I knew it, it was around eleven o'clock in the evening, I was so sleepy, I yawned, and I was about to pack up the herbs and go to sleep, but my grandma in the room yelled loudly——

I was taken aback, and hurriedly rushed to grandma's room, turned on the light, and saw grandma's eyes widened in horror, looking at me. "Grandma, grandma—" I felt something was wrong, grandma's eyes were completely out of focus, grandma was old, her eyes were not working, but grandma was not blind, "grandma, what's wrong with you, what's wrong?" "Xiaoran...Xiaoran...there are ghosts...there are ghosts in the house..." my grandma said terrifiedly while holding my hand. "Grandma, have you had a nightmare?" I said while shaking my grandma, intending to wake her up.

"No!" Grandma shook her head again and again, "I saw it, there is a ghost... Shine a flashlight in my eyes, it dazzles my eyes, Xiao Ran, turn on the light, let me see you... " I looked up at a light bulb hanging in the middle of the house at dusk. Although the light was dim, I could still see it because there was a light. Why did my grandma say that she couldn’t see me with her eyes wide open? I was infinitely suspicious in my heart, and immediately stretched out my hand and shook it in front of grandma. Sure enough, grandma's eyes didn't even blink. Grandma is blind!

This consciousness rushed into my mind, and I was stunned immediately. Thinking of what my grandma said just now, I was shocked. "Xiao Ran, turn on the light quickly, that ghost is here again, and shined the flashlight in my eyes again, Xiao Ran..." Grandma pinched my hand desperately—I felt like my wrist was about to break. I closed my eyes in pain, and two lines of hot tears came out of my eyes. I knew it was not a ghost, but that my grandma's divine light had disappeared.When a person is old, all the tissues and structures of the body are gradually aging. There is no elixir in this world. People will die sooner or later, and some people die from illnesses or accidents—these are all abnormal deaths.

And the other kind of people, like grandma, don’t belong to abnormal death—they died of old age, and they didn’t have any illnesses. It’s just that the various tissues of the body are aging, and they have to die, commonly known as old age. The greatest happiness of a person is naturally to die of old age without illness and pain, but old age and death is also a kind of pain...experiencing the aging of various tissues in the body, quietly waiting for the coming of death. I know that grandma is already blind, and when the light in her eyes disappears, it means that her life has come to an end, but it's just a matter of a day or two. Although there is no record in any medical book about the extinction of divine light, I learned from my master that when a person is old, all the energy and energy will be concentrated in the eyes, and people will feel as if they are being illuminated by strong light , first he lost his eyesight, and then - died of old age! Specifically, when the divine radiance dissipates, it is a symptom of old age and death. Of course, not all people who die of old age will lose their divine aura. Grandma was in great pain and panicked. I stretched out my hand to hold grandma down and took out a silver needle. After a moment of hesitation, I stabbed at grandma's black sweet hole. Seeing my grandma falling asleep quietly, I was dazed, and sat beside my grandma for half the night. Only after the rooster crowed twice outside did I regain my senses as if I had just woken up from a big dream, and hurriedly opened the door and went out.I have to go to town and call my parents so that they can come back as soon as possible, maybe I can see my grandma one last time.In addition, I have to look for the old people in the village to prepare for the funeral. My family is different from others and there are not many people. I am very popular in the village, so it is no trouble to find someone to help, but the treatment of the second girl's ghost-faced snake Gu has to be delayed again. I hurried to the town, ran to the town government to borrow a phone, and dialed my parents' number, but to my surprise, no one answered the phone for a long time... I dawdled in the town for a long time and dialed countless times, but no one answered the phone. In the end, I had no choice but to entrust a staff member of the town government to tell him what happened, and begged him to call again at night. My parents' phone number. As I expected, my grandma failed to survive two days, and passed away safely at dusk, while my parents still hadn't heard from them. I guarded my grandma, crying loudly, thinking that from now on I will be left alone, my parents will obviously not come back, even if my grandma passed away, they would not want to come back to take a look, and I , seems to have been forgotten. I thought of the master who left the book, and then looked at my grandma, why did all the people who treated me well in this world leave me?Under the care of the village chief, I was busy opening the warehouse and opening the crane. Three days later, my grandmother was buried alone on a hillside, and there was only a lonely person like me left in the world... After my grandma's funeral, the wall in the front yard was already dilapidated, so I wanted to hire a bricklayer to repair it.My grandma has passed away, and I am still alive, so I still have to live. The only bricklayer in the village was Zhang Tiehan, the eldest son of the village chief. He was good at handicrafts. He brought a few strong boys over early the next morning, and planned to tear down the broken wall and rebuild it. Unexpectedly, when the wall was being demolished, a palm-sized coffin was pulled out from the wall. At that moment, Zhang Tiehan's expression changed—a few young men who asked to come to help just thought it was something strange, and they all gathered around to watch. "Doctor Xu, this is very bad!" Zhang Tiehan looked at me and said with a dark face. I looked at the palm-sized coffin he placed on the bricks, and I knew in my heart that people in mountain villages pay attention to this and are very superstitious. My house has indeed been around for some time. It was probably built by my grandfather. It has been weathered for a long time. broken. Now that my family has just grown old, and we get such a thing out of the brick surface of the fence, everyone feels a little hairy.
