Ch 68: Treatment
“Ah, my Peace Talisman…” Zhong Xiu reached out to grab it, but only grasped air.
A look of disappointment appeared on Zhong Xiu’s face. How could a perfectly good Peace Talisman suddenly turn to ashes? She was planning to keep it safe and protect her for life.
Du Qingyang’s face, however, revealed a look of joy. It turned to ashes, great!
According to the book, after the Peace Talisman manifests to protect its owner from a calamity, it has no value. The Spiritual Energy will be exhausted, and the talisman body will be burned to ashes.
In this way, the Peace Talisman has really manifested. It completed its mission, turned to ashes, dust to dust, earth to earth, and left.
Du Qingyang is happy, proving that her Peace Talisman is effective.
“Auntie, the Peace Talisman can only be used once and cannot be reused,” Du Qingyang explained.
Hearing this, Zhong Xiu felt somewhat relieved, but there was still some reluctance on her face. If she could keep it, maybe she could use it again.
Du Qingyang didn’t say a word and directly pulled out several Peace Talismans from her pocket, stuffing them into Zhong Xiu’s hand.
On the same night that Xiang Zhihang took away all the stock, Du Qingyang drew many more.
The Original Owner didn’t like to study, and there were many blank workbooks at home. Du Qingyang is still using the blank Tian Zi Ge Notebook from the Original Owner’s elementary school days. She won’t run out of them for a while. Therefore, Du Qingyang’s action of taking out the Peace Talisman was swift, without the slightest hesitation, and not stingy at all.
Zhong Xiu took it. Looking at it, there were five of them. She thanked her repeatedly, smiling so happily that she couldn’t close her mouth.
“Give me one too.”
“I want one too, I want one too.”
“Give me one too, give it to me.”
◈◈◈
Everyone had seen the effect of the Peace Talisman and asked Du Qingyang for it.
“10 Yuan each, come to my house tomorrow to buy them. I don’t have time now.” After saying that, Du Qingyang turned around and went to treat the injured.
Everyone was stunned, and the enthusiasm for asking for the Peace Talisman instantly faded.
Need to pay? 10 Yuan each is so expensive? Isn’t it just a Tian Zi Ge Notebook with a few strokes of patterns drawn on it? Why is it so expensive?
After a while, everyone’s eyes shifted to Zhong Xiu. Why didn’t she have to pay?
A wave of envious and jealous gazes came over, and Zhong Xiu was so frightened that she quickly put away the Peace Talisman, trotted away, and didn’t even do her farm work.
Hmph, running so fast, afraid they’d snatch it? Although, they did have this idea.
On this side, everyone was still discussing the magic of the Peace Talisman, recalling the thrilling scene just now. On the other side, Du Qingyang and the others were already busy carrying out the treatment work.
On the scene, Du Qingyang was still the team leader, and both doctors were listening to her.
According to Du Qingyang’s instructions, treat the seriously injured first, then the lightly injured, to ensure that every injured person can receive treatment.
Villager He Jun was one of those who was knocked away by the ox. At that time, he landed on his side, and his left hand was fractured. At this time, he was lying on the ground, wailing non-stop in pain.
Du Qingyang squatted beside him, checked him, and immediately took out plaster and other medicines from the Medicine Box to treat He Jun.
He Jun looked at Du Qingyang, and the expression on his face became strange and complicated.
Doctor Du is here to save him, with Doctor Du here, he will definitely be fine. But, Doctor Du’s fees are expensive. More than just expensive, it’s simply sky-high!
Du Qingyang didn’t recognize He Jun, but He Jun recognized her. Moreover, he had a very deep impression.
The first time He Jun saw Du Qingyang was in front of the Health Station. At that time, Du Qingyang was setting up a stall in front of the Health Station, shouting that she specialized in treating Difficult and Complicated Diseases.
He Jun went to inquire about Rheumatism with a curious heart. Unexpectedly, the answer he got was that he needed to be treated for a month, costing 30 Yuan! And that was the most favorable price!
At that time, Du Qingyang gave He Jun a packet of medicine for free and also helped him do Acupuncture once, determining that he would go again the next day.
Unexpectedly, He Jun didn’t go again the next day, but went to Yao Lin to buy Spiritual Spring!
◈◈◈
The 1 Yuan Spiritual Spring, and the 30 Yuan course of treatment, He Jun still chose the cheaper one. However, he regretted it later! He was “poisoned” after drinking the Spiritual Spring, and went back to Du Qingyang, spending 5 Yuan to buy the Antidote. Too bad.
Back and forth, He Jun had no doubts about Du Qingyang’s Medical Skills. He could be sure that Du Qingyang was the most skilled doctor in the village!
Seeing Du Qingyang helping him with treatment, He Jun was really happy and worried. He didn’t know how much Du Qingyang would charge after the treatment.
Also having a headache were Wang Lai and Wang Ping, father and son.
The rumor that Du Qingyang’s fees were expensive had spread throughout the nearby villages, and even to Dong Town!
Isn’t that right? Du Qingyang also charged 100 Yuan to treat the son of the Town Leader of Dong Town!
The father and son frowned, looking at the seven or eight injured people in the field! They instantly felt that the future was bleak and they couldn’t see the future anymore.
If Du Qingyang charged 100 Yuan to treat one injured person, the treatment fee for seven or eight people would be nearly a thousand Yuan! Their family would probably have to sell their fields, land, and cattle.
Du Qingyang was quick, and quickly finished treating He Jun and went to treat another injured person.
This Auntie was injured to varying degrees all over her body, crying and shouting in pain.
“It’s just a skin injury, stop shouting.” Du Qingyang quickly stopped the bleeding and bandaged the Auntie.
Indeed, they were all skin injuries and didn’t hurt the bones. It’s just that there were many places where the injuries were worn out, which was really painful.
However, as soon as Du Qingyang’s voice fell, the Auntie stopped and didn’t say a word.
Seeing Du Qingyang’s serious face, the Auntie didn’t dare to shout anymore. Du Qingyang’s expression seemed to be saying, you’re too noisy, shut up!
The three doctors worked together, and before long, all the injured people were treated.
Du Qingyang packed up the Medicine Box, glanced at everyone, and shouted, “Whose ox injured people?”
“I… mine.” Wang Lai stepped forward, trembling, his voice shaking.
Du Qingyang is going to charge, their family is going bankrupt! Wang Lai wiped a handful of sweat, not knowing whether it was sweat or tears.
“Keep a close eye on it, don’t let it hurt people again!” Du Qingyang instructed.
“Yes, yes…” Wang Lai agreed repeatedly.
During the conversation between the two, the injured people were quietly moving backwards.
Because they were injured, they couldn’t walk fast in the first place. Moreover, in order to prevent being discovered by Du Qingyang, they had to leave carefully.
Why so careful? Afraid of being charged for treatment!
Although, the cost of treatment should be paid by the Wang Lai family. However, Du Qingyang’s fees are not ordinary expensive. I don’t know if Wang Lai has the ability to pay, and whether it will implicate them.
So, first come, first served!
“Wait a minute, everyone.” Du Qingyang turned around and stopped the injured people.
The injured people’s bodies froze at the same time. Alas, they were still too slow.
“After you go back, remember not to touch the wound with water within a week. Those with serious injuries will have to go to the Health Station tomorrow to change the dressing.”
“It’s okay, go back.”
The injured people’s bodies stiffened again. Just like that? Just a word of advice? Not mentioning the cost?
To the little friends taking the college entrance examination, good luck!
