Chapter 21 Healing
Several people put the old lady on the straw mat in the backyard.
I also thank them that the backyard of this room is big enough, otherwise a leper and they who want to keep a distance from the leper may not be able to fit it.
”What should I do now?” Gu Xiaoshun asked, looking at the old lady on the ground.
”Go wash your hands first.” Gu Jiao said.
The three of them washed their hands with water and honey locust.
After that, Xiao Liulang entered his room and wrote a prescription.
Gu Jiao stood behind him and asked softly, ”What is this?”
Gu Jiao came here, although she inherited the memory of the original owner, but the original owner is not literate, so she does not recognize the writing of this dynasty.
”Prescription.” Xiao Liulang said.
”What is this word?” Gu Jiao asked, pointing to the first word on the prescription.
”Earth.” Xiao Liulang said, ”Earth.”
”What about this?” Gu Jiao continued pointing down.
”Sophora, Nepeta, Asarum...” Xiao Liulang read the prescription along where Gu Jiao pointed.
Gu Jiao's expression was serious, as if she was really literate. Although it was a bit out of date, Xiao Liulang didn't think much about it.
”Why do you have a prescription for leprosy?” Gu Jiao asked suspiciously.
Xiao Liulang paused, and said, “My brother was also infected with leprosy at the time. A barefoot doctor prescribed an ancestral prescription for him. I saw my brother get better after drinking it.”
The original owner of his brother’s leprosy accidentally heard him mention it. The original owner was stupid and didn’t understand what leprosy was, so he didn’t take it seriously and didn’t mention it to anyone.
Feng Lin knew about this. It was because Xiao Liulang's brother had leprosy, and even the villagers disliked him with him, so he left his hometown to study in Qingquan Town.
On the way, the two met unexpectedly. After asking for their identity, Feng Lin found out that the other was his neighbor when he was a child. It was just that Feng Lin and his family had moved away and they had not seen each other for many years. Both sides have changed a lot. Lin Jian'er could not recognize him.
”Since it's getting better, why did you pass away?” Gu Jiao asked.
Xiao Liulang looked down and said: ”He got the leprosy, and the wind leaked out, and was arrested by the officers and soldiers to Jasper Mountain. Not long after that, he died of illness on the mountain.”
So that's it.
Gu Jiao nodded, and then said, ”Is this the prescription your brother used to treat the illness?”
Xiao Liulang hummed: ”She has very mild symptoms now, similar to my brother’s time. It is easy to heal, and there may be a cure.”
The prescription Gu Jiao has already understood that it is symptomatic, but the effect is very slow and can only delay the development of leprosy. It is still somewhat difficult to say a cure.
However, Gu Jiao said nothing.
Feng Lin took the prescription: ”I'll get the medicine!”
Xiao Liulang exhorted: ”Remember to go to a different pharmacy.”
Feng Linton for a while, suddenly realized: ”I understand!”
Don’t let people see that this is a prescription for leprosy, otherwise they will be exposed.
”I will go too!” Gu Xiaoshun said.
”What are you going to do?” Feng Lin didn't want to be with him.
Gu Xiaoshun raised his eyebrows and said: ”I'm guarding you to report to an official!”
Don’t think he didn’t hear it, this cargo just spurned his brother-in-law to send his sister to Mafeng Mountain!
Feng Lin rolled his eyes.
If Xiao Liulang didn't touch the old lady, he would have reported to the official, but Xiao Liulang had already touched, and he went to report to the official, wouldn't he want to take him away with Xiao Liulang?
