Chapter 441
More than 30 years ago, Feng Lu Village suddenly had a strange disease, and people who got sick would cough non-stop.
No matter eating or sleeping, no matter when and where, every ten breaths, I can't help coughing a few times.
What's even weirder is that this strange coughing disease is contagious. In less than a year, all the villagers in Fenglu Village were infected with this disease.
However, this strange cough disease will not kill people, the cough is not severe, and it will not harm the internal organs.
But after getting a strange disease, his normal life was disrupted by endless coughing.
Every villager has dark circles under his eyes every day because he can't sleep well.
Eating has also become troublesome and difficult, and the villagers have developed a habit of frantically stuffing food while coughing.
A few years later, the villagers discovered that newborn children would also be infected with this strange disease.
So he took this disease as God's punishment for Fenglu Village, built a wooden pagoda in the center of the village, and kowtowed under the pagoda twice every three days to ask God for forgiveness.
After Zheng Qiu came to Fenglu Village, he asked a thin woman at the entrance of the village about the situation in the village.
Because the woman coughed from time to time, and it was very uncomfortable to hear her talking intermittently, so Zheng Qiu made her take a piece of herb leaf that relieves cough and moistens lungs.
The effect of the herb is really good. After taking it, the thin woman can speak very smoothly and she doesn't cough at all.
She was ecstatic, and dragged Zheng Qiu into the village.
Call out the elders of the Feng family and the Lu family and tell them how his cough was cured.
These gray-haired old people were pleasantly surprised to find that the thin woman really stopped coughing when she spoke.
One by one, they knelt down in front of Zheng Qiu, begging him to stay and see a doctor for the villagers of Fenglu Village.
Seeing their pleading, Zheng Qiu felt that since he could help with this matter, he should help.
So he helped the elders up one by one, and immediately agreed to stay and help them see a doctor.
In this way, a tile-roofed house was vacated in Fenglu Village, and it was used as a clinic for the young benefactor to see a doctor.
A tall flagpole was also erected outside the house, and the flag of rejuvenation was hung on it.
Zheng Qiu was also respected as a sage doctor by the villagers of Fenglu Village, and all kinds of food and drink were delivered to his door every day.
Zheng Qiu didn't need these foods, he declined them one by one, and concentrated on treating the villagers' strange diseases.
In less than three days, Zheng Qiu discovered that using herbs that relieve cough and nourish the lungs cannot cure this strange coughing disease.
The herb worked well for the first day after taking it, without any signs of coughing.
But from the next day, the cough counterattacked little by little, and finally returned to the way it was before.
The villagers soon discovered this situation, and the respected elders in the village came to the clinic with a walking stick and advised Zheng Qiu to leave Fenglu Village.
The elder's reason was simple: "If even you, a saint, can't help, then this strange coughing disease is really God's punishment for Feng Lu Village.
The saint is young and kind-hearted and cannot stay here.
If the gods blamed the saint and caused the saint to suffer from this strange disease, then Feng Lu Village would be guilty of a serious crime. "
Hearing this, Zheng Qiu was not happy. He is a dignified medicine store owner, but he can't produce medicines to treat coughs. Isn't this a joke?
So he rejected the suggestion of the elders in the village,
He ran to the head of the village and announced to everyone that everyone's strange cough must be cured, and if he could not be cured, he would not leave.
One morning, a little boy named Feng Caosan walked into Zheng Qiu's clinic. He was only eight years old this year.
Zheng Qiu didn't give him cough medicine, but got a little leaf fragment of Rejuvenation Grass and asked Feng Caosan to eat it.
The medicinal effect of Wanlinghuichuncao was extremely strong, and it instantly eliminated Feng Caosan's cough symptoms. Zheng Qiu just wanted to see if Wanlinghuichuncao could cure this strange disease.
He told Cao San to come to the clinic every day to report his physical condition, whether his throat was itchy or coughing.
For five days in a row, Feng Caosan did not have any symptoms of coughing. It seems that Wanlinghuichuncao can completely cure the disease.
Today is the sixth day, Feng Caosan ran into the clinic with a sad face, as if he had bad news to tell.
Zheng Qiu's eyelids twitched, probably coughing again.
He touched the little boy's forehead and asked, "Cao San, are you worried? Are you coughing again?"
Feng Caosan scratched his head, and replied uncertainly: "Brother Saint, I did cough. I coughed several times this morning, and I didn't sleep well."
He touched his neck again, and added: "But I don't have a cough now.
Niang said that it might be because of kicking the quilt in bed last night and catching a cold, so let me not talk about it. "
Zheng Qiu pointed to the chair by the window and said, "You stay in the clinic today, let me see the situation."
Feng Caosan sat down on the chair obediently. Although he was a child, he also knew how uncomfortable it was to cough every day.
The two days without coughing were simply the happiest time since he was born.
Sitting there until noon, Feng Caosan didn't cough once. He greeted Zheng Qiu and rushed home for lunch first, and came back after dinner.
The situation in the afternoon was the same as in the morning, Cao San still didn't cough, but when the evening approached, he started to cough and cough non-stop.
Zheng Qiu narrowed his eyes, it was obvious that Feng Caosan's strange coughing disease was still not cured.
What is the reason? Even the rejuvenating grass can't cure it. This kind of mild cough should be treated well!
If this is a disease unique to Feng Lu Village, then why did I have no symptoms after staying in the village for so many days, not even an itchy throat.
Zheng Qiu recalled Feng Caosan's situation all day today. He didn't cough after eating at noon, and it started in the evening.
During this period of time, Cao San stayed by his side all the time, did not touch other people, and did not eat any weird things.
Wait a minute, Cao San has a kettle on his shoulder, and he drank the water in the kettle this afternoon.
Zheng Qiu hurriedly grabbed Feng Caosan's water bottle and asked, "Caosan, what kind of water is in it?"
Cao San coughed and replied: "Ahem, Brother Sage, there is stream water inside."
Stream, is there something wrong with this stream?
Zheng Qiu looked back at his table, there was clear water in the teapot, but it was also the stream water of Fenglu Village, why didn't he cough after drinking it?
Zheng Qiu shook his head, driving this thought out of his head.
No, I have strength and "wood spirit" protection, and ordinary poisons have no effect on me.
And Feng Caosan is an ordinary person, so he should consider the problem from the perspective of an ordinary person.
Zheng Qiu pushed the door and walked into the backyard, picked up a large wooden bucket, and tapped his own robe collar with his fingers.
A moment later, a small silver-blue snake emerged from the collar. The snake actually had two horns on its head and four small claws on its body. It was the Jiao named Zheng Qingyue.
Qingyue yawned, smacked her lips and asked, "Boss, I slept soundly, what's the matter?"
Zheng Qiu pointed to the wooden barrel in front of him and said, "I'm disturbing you from sleep, bring some water and fill the wooden barrel."
