The gong of the third watch had just struck, and Jiang Hou, who was sleeping soundly, was awakened by the knocks at the door.
"Who is it?"
Jiang Hou, who was drunk, sat up and shouted, breaking the tranquility of the night.
After a while, a faint voice came from outside the door.
"Doctor Jiang, please see a doctor."
Although the voice was human, the tone was indescribably weird, with a hint of sadness in the cold tone.
Jiang Hou got out of bed, lit the candle, wrapped his clothes tightly, and then ran to open the door in exasperation.
It is the end of the New Year at this time, and light snow is falling outside the house. After this snow falls, the New Year will be over.
"Squeak..."
The door opened, and a gust of cold wind filled the room with biting cold air.
Jiang Hou couldn't help but shudder, and his mind became much clearer. He took a closer look and saw a middle-aged man with a thin face standing at the door. There was a dark sedan parked on the road behind him. There were four bearers standing in total.
"Brother, what are you..."
The man rolled his eyes and quickly replied: "Doctor Jiang, the villain Huang San, my master suddenly I'm suffering from a serious illness. I've come here specifically to see you. Please come to my house to treat me." Jiang Hou glanced at the sky and replied, "Where does your master live?" It's so late and it's snowing, so it's very inconvenient to go to the clinic."
"My master lives in Xinglin Village in the northeast, just a few miles north of the city. Life, please hurry up and get ready. We will leave immediately. As for the cost of medical visits, we will never treat you badly."
After hearing this, Jiang Hou remembered what he had bought for the winter supplies at home. It's almost done, but I'm still wearing old clothes from a few years ago. Why don't I go there now, earn more money, and go to the cloth shop to make a new set of clothes, so that others won't laugh at me.
What’s more, people still carried a sedan to pick her up.
Jiang Hou agreed: "Okay, let me prepare some tools and then follow you."
After a while, Jiang Hou carried a medicine box on his back and put on his clothes Wearing a thick coat, facing the cold wind, we got on the sedan prepared by the other party.
There were some bumps on the road, and the four bearers had extraordinary foot strength. Jiang Hou could clearly feel that the sedan was moving much faster than an ordinary sedan.
Don’t look at the distance, only a few miles, but the mountain road is rugged. It would take a normal person half a day to walk on foot. But before Jiang Hou took a nap while sitting in the sedan, he felt the sedan fall down, and then The curtain was opened, revealing Huang San's face.
"Doctor Jiang, we are here, please get off the sedan."
Jiang Hou got off the sedan and took a look, and a huge golden door appeared in front of him.
Different from ordinary mansions, this gate is embedded in a huge cave at the foot of the mountain, as if it was built against the mountain.
Then Huang San took the door knocker and patted the door, noAfter a while, someone opened the door to the house.
When Jiang Hou looked at the doorman’s face, he couldn’t help being startled. He was completely awake from the alcohol.
The man's face was pale, but he was wearing pink blush. His eyes were staring straight at him, without any expression, and his movements were a little stiff.
While Jiang Hou was staring at the man in a daze, Huang San gently pushed Jiang Hou from behind, and then made a gesture of invitation.
"Doctor Jiang, please."
Jiang Hou turned around, and the four bearers were staring at Jiang Hou, as if they were afraid that he would run away.
Jiang Hou sighed inwardly, complaining that he was blinded by money when he was drunk, and ended up in this weird place, but now there was no turning back, so he had to bite the bullet and walk inside.
Huang San led the way, and Jiang Hou followed closely. On the way, he met many people from the mansion, each of them looked like the doorman who opened the door, with expressionless faces and cold eyes.
What is even more frightening is the plates held in the hands of these servants.
On the plate are either the offered fruits or chicken heads and butts.
The talismans and seals attached to the offered fruits have not yet been removed, and some of the chicken heads and buttocks are even bloody.
Jiang Hou is just a scholar after all. Seeing this scene, he was trembling in his heart, but he also understood that the person who invited him here today was probably not an ordinary person, but rather Wong Tai Sin's home. .
He thought to himself why he had been entangled with Wong Tai Sin recently. First he met someone who wanted to be granted a title, and now he met someone who treated illnesses.
But I’m afraid of returning. As long as the disease can be cured, it shouldn’t be a big problem to escape unharmed.
After all, the last Wong Tai Sin who sought the title left a pretty good impression on Jiang Hou.
......
Huang San led Jiang Hou through several halls, and then turned around again, finally stopping in front of a large door.
"Doctor Jiang, my master is inside, please go in. He is not feeling well due to illness and doesn't like people talking, so I won't accompany you in."
Jiang Hou was anxious to see the patient and leave, so he quickly replied: "Easy to say, easy to say."
After explaining to Jiang Hou, Huang San turned around and left, leaving Jiang Hou standing alone. door.
Looking to the left and right, Jiang Hou saw it was dark and forced himself to open the door.
"Zhiyo..."
The door opened, and by the candlelight on the table in the room, Jiang Hou saw a person sitting on the bed opposite.
From a physical point of view, she is still a woman.
Doctors are benevolent. Although at that time the distinction between men and women was still very important, treating the disease was important.
"Excuse me."
Jiang Hou muttered and quickly walked to the bed. The woman had already stretched out her hand.
The room was very large, with only one candle lit, and a thin curtain drawn on the bed, so the woman's appearance could not be clearly seen.
Put your hand on a woman’s pulse, a womanMy wrist is very cold, not like a normal person's body temperature.
Jiang Hou only stood there for a moment, but his face turned pale with fright and he jumped up from his stool.
The stool was pushed by Jiang Hou's leg and fell to the ground with a clang.
At this moment, a gust of wind blew in from the door and blew up a corner of the bed curtain. Jiang Hou took advantage of this moment to look at it by candlelight, and he almost burst into tears and was so frightened that he was scared to death.
The woman's face has turned cyan, and even though she is wearing thick makeup, there is still no trace of blood.
Based on the pulse calculation, this woman had been dead for one to two days.
Jiang Hou just wanted to run away and ask him to treat a dead man. This was too outrageous. Isn't that just what people do.
At this moment, the door suddenly closed with a "bang".
Jiang Hou pushed the door open repeatedly and found that the door had been locked from the outside.
A terrifying atmosphere instantly enveloped the dark room.
The only candle on the table was almost burned out.
I don’t know if it was an illusion, but Jiang Hou vaguely felt that the woman’s body on the bed seemed to be moving.
Looking carefully, the hand that just felt for the pulse has been retracted.
A chill rushed from the soles of Jiang Hou’s feet to the top of his forehead.
At this moment, a hand suddenly grabbed Jiang Hou's wrist, and at the same time another hand tightly covered his mouth...
