129. 13

Seeing that Xue Boyong's physical condition was stable and he was time to accumulate experience, Lin Dan finally decided to go out for medical practice.

"Brother, I've gone out, maybe I can't come back in the afternoon." Before leaving, she went to the next room to say hello.

Xue Boyong saw her wearing a coarse cloth dress, a bamboo basket on her back, a string of rattles in her hand, and a look like she was traveling far away, and frowned, "Where are you going?"

"I went to every village outside the city to see a doctor. I have read all the medical books I should read, and I understand the medical theory and pharmacology I should understand. Now I am not practicing. People in the capital are particularly particular. If you have any illness, you will go to the clinic to see a doctor. I am a fledgling young man like me, but I will definitely not accept the clinic, so I can only go to remote rural areas. The living conditions of the people there are not as good as those of the city people. Most of them can only get over the disease, unless they are serious, they will get into the city. If I take the initiative to come to see them, and charge less medical fees, I think they are willing. When I have accumulated enough experience, sooner or later, I can cure my elder brother's legs. Brother, please wait." Lin Dan said while waved his hand, and left like this.

Xue Boyong hurriedly called her: "Wait for me, you are a weak woman walking outside all day long. What if you encounter danger?"

"Brother, I'm not a weak woman." Lin Dan clenched his fist.

Thinking of her easily holding up the power of a big man, Xue Boyong's expression slightly stopped, but he still said tactfully: "If you want to practice medicine, I won't stop you, but you must take a guard when you go out, otherwise you will stay at home."

Seeing that he had a firm expression, Lin Dan had to perfunctorily say, "Okay, brother, I've listened to you, you, go out with me." After saying that, he just nodded two guards and turned around and left, regardless of whether others followed or not, his posture was more skillful than the marshal who ordered troops on the battlefield.

Xue Boyong looked at her straight back with annoyed expression and a little helpless. Shaoqing actually held his forehead and smiled. He waved his hand and said, "Go and go, go with her, be sure to protect people."

The two guards who were clicked bowed and chased after them.

Looking at the tightly closed gate, Xue Boyong shook his head and murmured: "I didn't blame you, why are you doing this?" Although that's the case, his cold and hard heart had already been captured by this stubborn little girl and became soft.

After Lin Dan left, the yard seemed particularly quiet. In the past, she had already studied in the study room, and the whispering sounds of memorizing came from time to time, like a large group of bees buzzing. Xue Boyong had protested several times, and she habitually agreed, but later she would forget it. It seemed that it was her habit to memorize the sound. Until now, Xue Boyong was used to her habit. The sound suddenly disappeared, and he felt uncomfortable everywhere.

He asked Li Zhong to carry himself outside to bask in the sun, sighing: "The little girl didn't ask me what dishes I wanted to eat for lunch this morning."

Li Zhong replied subconsciously: "Miss Lin said she would not come back in the afternoon, and the lunch meal was made by Chef Fang. What do you want to eat, I will go to the kitchen and say it now."

Xue Boyong waved his hand indifferently: "No, I don't want to eat anything."

Seeing that the eldest son was depressed and frowned, as if he had returned to the moment he was injured, Li Zhong quickly said, "You should call Mrs. Fang over now and ask her what fresh ingredients have been put in the kitchen today?"

"No need, let's talk about it after noon." Xue Boyong was still not interested, just stared at the gate of the courtyard, not knowing what he was thinking.

In the past, Miss Lin teased the eldest son to order the dishes he wanted to eat for lunch. Today, Miss Lin was not here, and the eldest son didn't order the dishes. She also said that lunch would have to be discussed after noon. This was clearly a rhythm of not wanting to eat! Li Zhong became more and more nervous, and he plucked up the courage to leave, "I'll go to the kitchen to take a look" and ran away.

Xue Boyong closed his eyes and his expression was a little lonely. Although he was surrounded by guards and there were countless servants serving him outside the courtyard wall, he suddenly felt empty and had no place to fall in love.

After a while, Li Zhong ran back, and his anxious expression had been replaced by a smile. "Young Master, you definitely didn't expect that when Miss Lin left, she stewed a pot of beef on the stove. When the meat was stewed until noon, you could eat it. I just smelled it, and the taste was absolutely amazing. If I hadn't covered my hands quickly, my saliva would drip into the pot. I don't know what seasonings Miss Lin put, and it wouldn't be opened. Once it was lifted, the people in the kitchen were almost drunk. I've never smelled such a fragrant beef!"

Xue Boyong, who was a little absent-minded, turned his head and listened carefully to him, and his dark eyes kept flashing. He then remembered that when he was asleep yesterday, the little girl had run to his room to ask if he had anything he wanted to eat recently. He casually said that beef, but she didn't expect that she would stew the dish when she left this morning.

After leaving, he was worried that his eldest brother's lunch would not be settled. This little girl... Thinking of this, Xue Boyong pressed his lips with his fist and tried his best to cover up the corners of his raised mouth.

When Lin Dan left, he had already done everything he should do and explained everything he should explain clearly. He didn't have to worry about something going on with his elder brother. She hired a ox cart and drove slowly out of the city. Seeing that the city gate was about to be impressed, she said to the two guards: "I promised you to come with you to comfort my elder brother, but in fact I can deal with all emergencies alone. You have nothing to do with me, so why not help me find someone."

The two guards sat outside the carport without saying a word, completely unwilling to pay attention to her.

Lin Dan was not angry and continued, "You helped me find people with the same symptoms as my elder brother. They all had paralyzed their legs after falling down. After finding them, they told me the address of the person and I went to treat them. I have no experience, so it is difficult to put a needle on my elder brother at will, hoping to find a similar patient to treat it. Let me tell you the truth, Lin Chaoxian is my great-great-great-great-grandfather, the Xuanji acupuncture method passed down by my family may cure my elder brother's legs. In any case, this is also a way of life. Please pay attention to it."

The two guards who were holding the sword and closing their eyes were pretending to sleep suddenly opened their eyes and looked into the car, but only saw a layer of bamboo curtains.

"Is Lin Chaoxian your ancestor?" The two spoke together, with a cautious tone.

"Of course, my brother knows this." Lin Dan lifted the bamboo curtain and asked, "Will you help me?" Lin Chaoxian's medical skills were so amazing that they were passed down, but the most important medical books he left behind were missing. Therefore, the Lin family members hidden and dared not publicize them at will, for fear that they would not be able to protect this inheritance, which would completely ruin the reputation of their ancestors.

The acupuncture and massage techniques passed down by the Lin family must be supplemented with internal strength to be effective. Without internal strength, the doctor will pierce the fatal point with an injection, and the patient will immediately die. This is not saving people, but killing people! Therefore, Mr. Lin clearly has the secrets he passed down from his family, but he dare not learn it. He only studied the simplest technique of bruising and injury, which is helpless.

The two guards didn't know about the inside story and didn't intend to inquire about it. They only knew that they had to catch any hope of curing the general, so they nodded immediately: "Okay, we'll help you with this! There are many people in the city, so we can find it in the city first. If not, then go to the surrounding towns."

"Okay, you guys get off here. We will meet at the Xicheng Gate on time at You." Lin Dan knocked on the shaft of the car and signaled the driver to stop.

The coachman was a rough man, and he didn't know anything about Lin Chaoxian or Xuanji acupuncture. Even if he knew and promoted it, Lin Dan was not afraid. She was confident to solve any trouble.

After getting off the car, the two guards showed the token on their waists to the coachman and warned: "This is the lady from General Xue's mansion. You must send her back with all your responsibilities. We know very well where your home is and how many people are there."

The coachman agreed in fear and fear, and when the two guards left, the clothes behind him were soaked in cold sweat. If he had known that these guests were so big, he would not have accepted the business.

"Let's go, with me here, nothing will happen on the road." Lin Dan waved his hand, his tone calm, and he was completely unaware that the positions of the protector and the protected person had been completely turned upside down by her.

In fact, there are also carriages in the Xue Mansion, but the decorations are very luxurious and not suitable for walking in the countryside. Furthermore, if the people in the mansion need to use carriages, they have to go to Mrs. Xue to report for preparation. In this way, whether Lin Dan's plan can still be completed is a question. Mrs. Xue can tolerate her staying to take care of her son, but she may not tolerate her becoming a traveling doctor, which will embarrass the Xue family.

To say something unpleasant, Lin Dan was very disliked by Mrs. Xue, who was very decent in every way. If it weren't for the original owner's debt, she would have left long ago.

The coachman was amused by the little girl's strong attitude, and his nervous mood instantly relaxed. He drove the ox cart with the reins and slowly drove out of the city gate.

Lin Dan took out a set of silver needles and a human-shaped puppet hidden in the bamboo basket and seized the time to practice acupuncture. She had tried her best to control her internal strength, but she still lost her sense of responsibility when the needle was inserted. The violent energy flowed into the cork along the tip of the needle, and instantly exploded a small cavity.

There was a dull sound of "puff", and snow-white wood chips sprinkled out of the cavity, sprinkling Lin Dan's face. Fortunately, the material of this set of silver needles is very special, and can withstand the breaking of internal energy and constantly cracking, otherwise she would even destroy the guys who were eating. If she replaced the puppet with a real person, it can be imagined that the ones she sprinkled on her face now would not be wood chips, but blood and minced meat. If she could not control the input of internal energy, this set of needles would only kill people, not save people.
