Datang: Showdown, your father and I are Li Shimin

Chapter 14 Moving back to the village, smallpox epidemic

"Miracle Doctor Li is out! Doctor Li is out!"

"Come and see~ Miracle doctor Li really came out, what a handsome young man! Is the young man married?"

"Hey hey hey~ What do you mean? It's not so obvious!"

Li Ze's head was covered with black streaks, and he saw several servants grabbing eyebrow sticks and trying their best to block these crazy people from the door.

It turns out... the behavior of chasing stars has existed as early as the Tang Dynasty...

When Li Ze saw this scene, he immediately remembered those people in the later generations who saw the stars, rushing forward to ask for autographs like crazy.

But here, they didn't come to ask for autographs, either to marry their daughters, or to cure some headaches.

Although treating diseases and saving lives can make money and reputation, Li Ze has no interest in being an official since he experienced the life of being an official last time.

Wouldn't it be nice to stay in the hospital well and sleep until ten o'clock in the morning?

"Fellow folks, I still have a lot of tools left in my hometown Du Village. When I bring my tools back to Chang'an, I will find a place to open a medical clinic and treat the villagers!"

Li Ze spoke loudly to the Chang'an people at the door.

After chattering among the crowd for a long time, a few people left slowly.

At this time, not far from Li Ze's house, several people leaned against the wall: "This kid, I didn't expect his reputation to be so loud."

"It's no wonder our lord wants us to keep an eye on it. We just arrived in Chang'an City, a country doctor, so many famous people came here. I really don't know what kind of thaumaturgy this kid has."

Another person smacked his lips and put his hands in his sleeves: "I heard that it can bring the dead back to life. Not to mention saving Du Shangshu, it even saved the empress."

"Tsk tsk tsk... how can a child with no hair yet have medical skills? I think it's just luck. Let's go for a walk and have a cup of tea."

The two shadows found a nearby vendor, but their eyes still did not leave Li Ze's house.

"Nong~ Who do you think you are?" One of them raised his chin, and the two locked their eyes on the door of Li Ze's mansion.

I saw a dilapidated carriage parked not far from the gate of Li Ze's mansion.

A gray-haired old man stepped out of the car, and he waved his hand towards Li Ze's door: "Master Li! The old man is here to disturb you again!"

Li Ze looked through the crowd and looked towards the distance outside the door. It was Sun Simiao.

The people in Chang'an naturally knew Sun Simiao's name, and they all made way for him.

Sun Simiao quickly stepped forward and walked into Li Ze's mansion. He cupped his hands towards Li Ze and said, "Miracle Doctor Li, I have recently studied the Thirteen Needles of the Ghost Gate taught by the miracle doctor. I am very knowledgeable about these thirteen needles." It’s a different opinion, so I’m here to discuss it with Dr. Li.”

When Li Ze saw this old man with a gray beard, he felt awe in his heart. The old man in his 80s was already bedridden at that time, but Sun Simiao was still so obsessed with medical skills, just to be able to treat more people.

"It turned out to be Miracle Doctor Sun. It's easy to talk about it, but unfortunately I still have a lot of medical equipment left in my hometown in Du Village today. I have to go and get them back. If Miracle Doctor Sun is free, we can talk while walking."

Li Ze recruited a few servants, mobilized the carriage and prepared to go back to the village.

Sun Simiao showed joy and nodded again and again: "Okay, okay, by the way, let me show the tools of Miracle Doctor Li."

After finishing speaking, he followed Li Ze to the back door of the mansion.

Li Ze and Sun Simiao got into the carriage and hurriedly drove towards the gate of Chang'an City.

In about an hour, Li Ze, Sun Simiao and several servants returned to Du Village.

In Du Village.

Several farmers came home from farming. The tall farmer Du An saw several people gathered around the door of Li Ze's medical center. He was a little curious and walked towards the crowd: "What are you doing around the door of Dr. Li's house? The cow is sick again ?”

Du An was shocked when he saw the woman named Sun at the door turn her head. The woman named Sun's face was covered with acne and she looked very oozing.

"It's not a cow this time... I, and my two sons, my husband is sick, and the third son has passed out from a fever." Aunt Sun's expression was extremely anxious, her eyes were bright red from crying: "When will Miracle Doctor Li come?" I just came back! Help..."

In the past, sick people in their village came to see Li Ze. As time went by, fewer and fewer sick people in the village came to see Li Ze.

Almost everyone else in the village heard the noise at the entrance of the medical center and hurried forward. When they saw some people with blushing faces and some with terrible acne scars, they all backed away a few steps in fright.

"Didn't Erniang Liu say that he went to the imperial court to become an official? I'm afraid he won't be able to come back. Why don't you go to the capital and find a medical center?" One of them suddenly asked.

Only then did they realize that Li Ze was picked up some time ago, and everyone didn't pay attention, thinking that some official in Chang'an City wanted him to see a doctor.

"An official in the court?" Aunt Sun's face changed: "Then my son...isn't my son hopeless?"

Aunt Sun stared at Li Ze's medical hall in horror, and suddenly felt the world spinning, she rolled her eyes and fell to the ground.

"Aunt Sun! Aunt Sun!" Several people around were so frightened that they rushed forward to help Aunt Sun.

At this time, Li Ze heard the shouts in the village from a long distance from the entrance of the village, and ordered the driver to speed up, and saw a group of people gathered around the door of his medical center from a long distance away.

"What's going on? Give way, everyone!" Li Ze pushed aside the crowd. The farmer took one look, suddenly became happy, and shouted to the crowd: "Miracle Doctor Li is back!"

Li Ze passed through the crowd, and immediately saw the woman lying on the ground in his eyes. He reached out and touched his forehead, almost feeling a little hot, and his face was covered with chicken pox.

Looking around again, there are a few people who are also blushing, but there are not many people with chickenpox like Aunt Sun.

Li Ze frowned suddenly, feeling that something might have happened to him after he left the village.

Turning his head, seeing Sun Simiao was about to go forward, Li Ze stretched out his hand to block Sun Simiao not to go forward: "Master Sun! Don't come here! This disease is contagious!"

When the other villagers heard this, they were shocked instantly. Infectious diseases ranged from flu to plague.

Everyone quickly took a few steps back, keeping their distance from people as much as possible.

Sun Simiao glanced at the people around him from afar, and murmured brokenly, "A sore on the head, face and body, shaped like a fire sore, filled with white pulp...could it be... smallpox!"

As he said that, Sun Simiao's face became extremely solemn. Smallpox was considered terminally ill at that time, and there was no specific cure for it even in later generations.

Once the condition worsens, the final result is death.

Li Ze nodded solemnly: "It's smallpox, and the disease is highly contagious... Zhang San Wang Wu, stay away from us! Everyone, stay away and don't touch the sick!"

As soon as the words fell, it wasn't just Zhang San Wang Wu, but the expressions of the people surrounding the medical hall suddenly changed. They were so terrified that they stepped back dozens of steps in fright: "Master Li! You must be careful!"

As they spoke, the crowd dispersed towards the surroundings. The faces of the people were horrified, their faces turned pale with fright, and some even sat down on the ground paralyzed in fright.

"Smallpox... smallpox... everyone run!"

"It's over, it's over...how did our village get infected with this!"

"Miraculous Doctor Li, hurry up! Everyone, stop crowding together!"

"Hurry up, hurry up...help me see if I have acne on my face!"

"No... you can help me see too!"

……

Many people hurriedly opened their cardigans and looked at themselves, or touched their faces in a panic to check if they had acne.

There were also some timid people who ran back to their homes in a panic, closing the doors and windows tightly.

Sun Simiao was also extremely anxious at this time, and shouted loudly: "Master Li, go away! This smallpox infection will cause illness, and serious illness will cause death. You are still young, and your medical skills still need to be inherited. You must not be lightly infected with smallpox!"
