"You said it was Zhang He?"

Gu Ren didn't react for a moment.

He asked for confirmation again.

"Sixth brother, are you talking about Zhang Yongqing? Not someone else?"

"It's not someone else, it's him. He is Ling, the former imperial physician of the Xinguo Medical Department." The sixth brother nodded with certainty, "I will never admit the wrong person. But - speaking of this, isn't this Zhang Yongqing the same as Shisan?

Does it have anything to do with the poison?"

Gu Ren’s eyes were filled with one sentence——

【Do you think it is possible?】

The sixth brother was so suspicious that he remained silent for a long time.

Not only Gu Ren thought it was absurd, he also thought it was impossible - you know, this Zhang He may be unknown in other places, and there is no trace of this person, but he is a well-known figure in Lingzhou, and can be said to be "the heart of the people"

"Everyone wants"! In a true sense, "well-loved by the people"! How good is your reputation?

So good that if his son said something bad about Zhang He, the parents at home would cut off the father-son/mother-son relationship with this unfilial son the next day!

This is definitely not an exaggeration!

But it’s true!

Gu Ren's brothers were also witnesses.

The old father beat his son with tears in his eyes, and kowtowed violently in the direction of Zhang He's residence, as if a believer who had made a mistake was repenting to the faith in his heart - repenting that he had raised such an ungrateful boy!

At first, Gu Ren and others thought it was too exaggerated.

The people in Lingzhou want to put Zhang He on the altar!

I also suspected that this was a drama that Zhang He hired someone to direct and perform in order to promote his own reputation. However, after their open and covert investigation, they found that they were judging the heart of a gentleman with a villain's heart. His reputation is really good.

, without adding water.

Gu Ren also secretly envied that as long as Zhang He raised his arms, countless people would follow him to the death. Although he could do it one or two out of ten, he would never be as easy as Zhang He.

He also has twelve sworn brothers to help him.

What about Zhang He?

The family has been operating alone all the way.

On this point alone, I am far inferior to him.

If the sixth brother hadn't named him, Gu Ren doubted that he would even suspect Zhang He, so - could it really be him?

The sixth brother frowned and thought deeply for a while, then suddenly thought of something, and suddenly said: "Wait! Brother, do you still remember what Zhang He relied on to make a fortune? How did he gain such a high reputation among the people? It seems that Zhang He has such a high reputation among the people.

It’s not impossible for He—”

Gu Ren's mind didn't turn around for a moment.

"How did Zhang He make a fortune? He was not a kind-hearted doctor, so he went deep into the epidemic-stricken area of ​​Lingzhou alone, and then -" As he spoke, Gu Ren paused and brushed his face, his face seemed to be covered with a layer of white putty, and he jumped

, "Epidemic! It's an epidemic!"

Gu Ren remembers it very clearly.

One year a large-scale plague broke out in Lingzhou.

The plague was raging everywhere, and countless people were infected.

This disease is strange to say. It is not fatal, but it will make people feel weak, golden-colored, and have no appetite. Even if they are force-fed, they will be uncomfortable and vomit. What is even more strange is that this plague only affects the lower class people.

broke out between.

There are basically no examples of nobles from aristocratic families being tricked.

Therefore, some people at that time speculated that this plague was caused by "poverty" and that ordinary people from lowly backgrounds were targeted because they were not clean.

For this reason, Lingzhou Prefecture did not pay attention to it.

The plague spread for more than a month. Every day, the corpses of people who were starved and emaciated were thrown into mass graves and other places outside the city. The bones piled up into hills. For a time, the public was so angry that the gates of the state capital were demolished and smashed by desperate people.

.

finally--

This matter spread to the court of King Xin.

However, because this plague only spread among the lowest level of the people, the former leader of the Xin Kingdom did not pay much attention to it and sent a dozen medical officers from the Medical Department to deal with it. There was a shortage of medicinal materials and manpower, and the medical officers from the Medical Department studied

No progress for months.

The former king was worried that the "poverty" disease in Lingzhou would spread to other places. After careful consideration, he ordered the Lingzhou Prefecture to gather the sick people into a city. In name, it was to gather together to facilitate the treatment of the medical officers of the Medical Department. In fact, it was

Let them fend for themselves!

It was at this moment that Zhang He fell from the sky.

Emmm——

To be precise, there was a filial daughter who took her sick old mother everywhere to seek medical treatment but to no avail. In desperation, she prepared to take her old mother with her on the road to avoid starving to death. As a result, she accidentally broke into Zhang He's small medical clinic where she lived in seclusion.

He was cured of the plague.

Zhang He also learned about what was happening in the outside world from the mouth of his filial daughter, and immediately packed his bags and went out for diagnosis and treatment. According to Zhang He, he was originally the son of a lonely branch of a small clan. He was frail since he was a child, had been ill for a long time, and then became a doctor.

Score three points for a true pass.

How could he see the suffering of all sentient beings and ignore them?

Zhang He was not afraid of being dirty, tired, and smelly. He entered a city full of patients alone and begged a local wealthy family for medicinal materials. The patriarch made things difficult for him and said that he would give him credit on his knees for three days. Zhang He

I really knelt for three days and three nights!

And due to lack of manpower, Zhang He intercepted the evacuated medical officers from the Medical Department overnight. He relied on his superb medical skills to win the battle, and also taught ordinary people some medical techniques without reservation. With his sleepless and non-stop spirit, he finally started a month later.

city!

At this point, Zhang He became famous in one battle!

The lonely little clan also stood up and recognized this clan member.

Zhang He opened a medical clinic in Lingzhou.

I don’t know if it was because of the plague. He treated ordinary people without taking any money. He also treated high-ranking families. Death was expensive. To save someone’s life, he had to scrape off a thick layer of oil and water from them! When the people heard this, they all responded.

Applaud Zhang He for a job well done!

Of course, this incident alone is not enough to push Zhang He's reputation so high. He also has a unique skill!

It is said that Zhang He learned it from his immortal mentor.

Regardless of whether the illness is serious or minor, even if the patient has lost half of his life, just one pack of medicine can cure King Yama!

No matter how poor the people are, they can still afford three pennies a pack of medicine. If they are so poor that they can't even afford three pennies, Zhang He will not embarrass the patients and just give it away for free.

It is no exaggeration to say that Zhang He is the reborn parent in the eyes of many people in Lingzhou, especially the poor people!!!

That kind of people--

It’s really possible that he was the culprit who killed Thirteen!

That plague was the battle of Zhang He’s fame!

Gu Ren murmured: "There were so many highly skilled medical officers in the medical department who were unable to deal with the plague, but Zhang He alone was able to deal with it. It's hard to say that he didn't cause this plague... But, can anyone really be so crazy?"

The sixth brother said: "It's hard to say."

Gu Ren fell into a long silence for a while.

The sixth brother continued: "Actually, now that I think about it -"

Gu Ren: "What?"

Sixth brother: "That plague was more like a plague than a plague, because the people were not sick at all, they were bewitched! All the medical officers in the medical department went in the wrong direction and used medical treatment to solve the problem.

Gu, of course, cannot work! Furthermore, brother, do you believe there is any disease in the world that only targets poor and lowly common people?"

There were waves in Gu Ren's eyes.

The more he thought about it, the more he realized it was not impossible.

Gu Ren scolded his sixth brother in a low voice: "Be careful! Why do you dare to say anything? You don't want to talk about this matter!"

Even more impossible to admit it!

Once you admit that there is such a disease, it is tantamount to admitting that the blood shed by ordinary people is inferior and different from those born in noble families. Even if there are ordinary people who have become ordinary people from poor families through hard work for several generations, but

How to change the blood flowing in the bones?

Do you hope to marry a high-ranking family to change your bloodline?

This is really ridiculous!

The sixth brother rarely saw Gu Ren angry.

Being scolded by him like this, I also stopped talking.
