Chapter 324 When Sun Simiao Met the Barefoot Doctor's Manual

"Puff!" The sharp blade cut off the ferocious snake's head, and the headless snake fell and twisted on the pile of dead leaves.

"Wait a minute."

Chen Ran stopped Li Yuanji who was about to possess the snake and pick it up, "This thing has strong reflexes. It can bite people even if its head is chopped off."

Zhao Wenhai, who was also responsible for the hard labor and supervision, also advised, "That's right. This is a mountain pass. If you get bit, there's no hope."

Li Yuanji returned home in disappointment, obviously unhappy about not being able to eat game.

"These wild things have parasites under their skin, which are tiny bugs smaller than sesame seeds."

Chen Ran took his sword, threw it over, and accurately pierced the snake's head, pinning it to the ground. "If they eat it, they will multiply in your stomach, crawl all over your body, and your skin will be full of little bugs."

Li Yuanji felt uncomfortable after hearing this and quickly followed up, "I've eaten it before, how come this didn't happen?"

“Everything has a probability.”

He grasped the hilt of the sword, threw the snake head far away, and returned the sword to Li Yuanji. "Sometimes you are lucky and don't get hit, but once you get hit, you will be unlucky."

"Have you heard of Chen Deng from the Wei and Jin Dynasties?"

"Chen Yuanlong from Xia Pi?"

"That's him." Chen Ran continued to lead the way. "He ate too much game and died of parasites that festered all over his body."

Li Yuanji was completely convinced now. "The pork at the post station is still delicious, clean and hygienic."

"So," Chen Ran said with a smile, "we need to raise more piglets so that people all over the world can eat clean and hygienic meat."

No matter what you raise or plant, you need a lot of water.

If you only consider Lanqiaoyi, the water from the nearby Blue River is sufficient.

But now many surrounding villages have been exposed to radiation, and they have begun to breed and grow new species on a large scale. There is no big river flowing by their village.

At this time, those who simply rely on God for their livelihood are Africans.

The people of Middle-earth will find their own way to solve the problem.

The solution proposed by Chen Ran was to build a reservoir.

Reservoirs can be built not only in the technological age, but also in ancient times.

Of course, don’t even think about building a large one. You can only build a small one by taking advantage of the terrain.

At this time, Chen Ran and a group of people were looking for a suitable construction site along the Lanxi River.

As it was getting dark, the group looked for a place to rest.

Set up a big pot, pour spring water in it, throw in the bacon and cook it in the water, put a wooden fence on it and put the corn tortillas on it, cover the iron pot and wait.

A lot of salt and spices are used when marinating bacon, and it really smells delicious after being heated.

If nothing goes wrong, the next step will be eating, drinking and resting.

Unexpectedly, an accident happened while eating.

The first person to react was Chen Ran. He threw the ceramic bowl in his hand into the grass not far away, and then pressed Li Yuanji, who was biting the bacon, to the ground.

Then he kicked out again, causing the pot lid in front of him to fly up.

This series of actions were completed in a flash.

Before others could react, they heard the sound of "puff puff puff" and several sharp arrows pierced the pot lid that Chen Ran kicked up, and the originally sharp momentum was also stagnant.

Zhao Wenhai and others roared like tigers, threw away their bowls and chopsticks, picked up their weapons and rushed into the bushes.

Chen Ran didn't go. He just watched curiously, thinking to himself, "Where did these bandits come from in this deep forest?"

The reason why gangsters become gangsters is to make money.

What fortune can you seek in the deep mountains and forests?

There is no custom in Middle-earth to hide treasures in caves. People bury them in pigsties.

'Woooooo~~~'

When he heard the hum, he noticed Li Yuanji who was being held down by him.

When I pulled him up, I saw that he had been choked by the bacon and his face was red.

With one slap, the bacon spurted out, and Li Yuanji gasped and coughed loudly.

By the time he recovered, the battle in the bushes had ended.

Zhao Wenhai and others dragged the two survivors over.

"Master, there were seven thieves. We killed four and captured two." At this point, he looked at Chen Ran with admiration, "and one was killed by a pottery bowl."

Looking at the two survivors in front of him, Chen Ran simply smiled.

Both thieves had short hair close to their scalps.

This hairstyle means the person either is a time traveler or a monk.

Sure enough, after interrogation, it was learned that he was a monk from a nearby temple. He came out to look for food and saw Chen Ran and his group eating a big piece of meat, so he wanted to rob them.

"What kind of temple is this? It's clearly a den of thieves!"

Li Yuanji was furious. "I have seen many temples like this. They are full of filth and evil!"

Zhao Wenhai and others nodded in agreement. It seemed that they had encountered this before.

"Then go have a look."

Chen Ran stood up, asked everyone to pack up, and led the two unlucky guys to a dilapidated temple several miles away.

There was a fire in the temple where meat was roasting, and a group of burly monks with fat faces were drinking and chatting.

If this is some kind of Buddhist holy land, then even if the Buddha came, he would beat these people up.

They were too lazy to talk and just rushed in to fight.

Zhao Wenhai and others were arranged by Li Er to carry out surveillance, so their abilities are naturally beyond doubt.

Moreover, they used military tactics, fighting in groups of three or five. These so-called monks were no match at all.

It didn't take long for the battle to be over.

There were only a few injured here, but all the monks were wiped out.

After interrogation, we learned that they were indeed a group of fake monks.

He had robbed Shangluo before, but was beaten by the government soldiers and fled into the mountains. He found this dilapidated temple, killed the monks there, and pretended to be a monk to occupy the temple.

After asking about the whole story, Chen Ran raised his hand and gestured in front of his neck.

Zhao Wenhai and others nodded in agreement and disposed of all the survivors who were left for interrogation.

For such scum, living any longer is just a waste of air.

"Taoist Master."

Someone came from behind and said, "We found the kidnapped person."

When the newcomer was brought over, Li Yuanji and Zhao Wenhai shouted in unison, "Master Sun?!"

The person who was carried out was actually the famous Sun Simiao.

"Hungry~~~"

Sun Simiao was obviously very hungry, so he hurriedly took out some dry food and a water bag and handed them to him.

After a heavy meal, Sun Simiao, who had recovered from his fatigue, thanked him solemnly and then explained why he was alone.

"I went into the mountains to collect herbs and stayed here. I never expected that I would be occupied by bandits. I was detained here to treat my wounds and illnesses."

He went into the mountains to collect herbs, and he knew the temples he often visited to stay the night.

Unexpectedly, all the acquaintances in the temple were killed and replaced by a group of thieves.

When the bandits learned that he was the famous Sun Simiao, they did not kill him but kept him to heal his illness and injuries.

But Sun Simiao was unwilling, so he was imprisoned and starved, and he had been hungry for several days.

"Thank you for your help."

Everyone returned the greeting and said they didn't dare.

Only Chen Ran sat there motionless.

Sun Simiao didn't pay attention to Chen Ran's actions, but instead asked, "Why are you here?"

"We are planning to build a reservoir, so we came here to check out the location."

Li Yuanji gestured to Chen Ran, "This is Taoist Master Chen."

Chen Ran then spoke, "Chen Ran, Chen Zihou, known in Jianghu as Yun Dayu."

Sun Simiao looked surprised. "Could it be Doctor Chen?"

'Uh~~~' Chen Ran was a little surprised to be called a miracle doctor by Sun Simiao.

"I heard that there is a divine doctor named Chen in Lanqiao Inn, who has saved countless lives and has great merits. I didn't expect to meet him today. I'm sorry."

Chen Ran stood up to return the greeting, and then the two of them sat down and talked.

Sun Simiao said that he had heard about the miracle doctor at Lanqiaoyi a long time ago.

I had planned to visit you before, but due to being busy, I never made it.

We met unexpectedly today, so of course we would like to discuss the principles of medicine.

Especially when it comes to Chen Ran's medical skills that seem magical in this era, Sun Simiao is eager to get to the bottom of them.

For example, Chen Ran promoted drinking water hygiene, pest control, emergency treatment, etc. in nearby villages.

Chen Ran smiled without saying anything, took out the "Barefoot Doctor's Manual" and handed it over. "Everything is in the book."

Sun Simiao couldn't sleep that night.

The next morning, when Chen Ran got up and went to the yard, he saw Sun Simiao with a scary look on his face.

Taoist Priest Sun held the book in his hand and said in a trembling voice, "Which great god wrote this divine book?"

"It was written by great doctors whose purpose was to cure illnesses and save lives, not to make money and cheat people."

Sun Simiao nodded repeatedly, "Where are the great gods? Sun wants to visit them."

This is a bit difficult.

Chen Ran shook his head and said, "We won't see them anymore. If Taoist Sun is willing, educating people of virtue and spreading the knowledge in the book is the right path."

"Obligated!"

Over the next few days, Sun Simiao followed them around the mountains and finally determined a sloping valley as the location of the reservoir.

After returning to Lanqiao Station, Chen Ran wrote a plan and asked Zhao Wenhai to deliver it to Li Er.

Within two days, when Sun Simiao officially moved into Lanqiao Station with his luggage and took over Chen Ran as a medical teacher, Li Er's reply also arrived.

His reply was just one word.

'allow!'

Lantian County received orders from above and mobilized civilians to go into the mountains to build a reservoir.

For modern people, corvee labor is something that only exists in books.

But for the people of the Tang Dynasty, performing corvée labor was a necessity of life.

The so-called corvée labor means working for the country for free.

If you meet a good emperor, he will not only provide you with food but also pay you.

If you meet a tyrant, just consider yourself unlucky.

For the people of Lantian County, Li Er was a good emperor, but this time Li Er did not pay them wages or provide them with food, but left everything to Lanqiao Posthouse.

Chen Ran was naturally not a stingy person. The first meal for these hundreds of laborers was big bowls of rice and large pieces of meat.

The magistrate of Lantian County, who saw this scene, ran back and wrote a letter to Fang Xuanling, saying that those people at Lanqiao Posthouse had "rebellious intentions!"

It's a very simple logic. Giving the people rice and meat to eat is the way to win their hearts!

Fang Xuanling attached great importance to this and quickly found the emperor to report his work.

In response, Li Er laughed out loud, leaving Fang Xuanling confused.

"What do you mean, Your Majesty?"

"I'm not making fun of you, Fang Qing." Li Er smiled and waved his hands, his expression somewhat leisurely and fascinated. "That's the standard of living over at Lanqiao Inn. If you have time, Fang Qing, go and take a look, and you'll know for sure."

"When all the people of the Tang Dynasty can live this kind of life, I can rest in peace."
