The cannon fodder just wants to survive until the end

"Oh, yes, yes, we can't tell anyone about it. Just keep it to ourselves."

The third lady nodded repeatedly.

After Ming Huaixi left the Li family, he took out a set of men's clothes that he had prepared earlier from the secret realm, and changed his appearance, turning into a black-faced young man.

When traveling around the world, it is more appropriate to wear men's clothing. It's not that women can't do that, but it is always more difficult for women to go out. In order to avoid unnecessary trouble, it would be better to disguise themselves.

Ming Huaixi was driving on a country road. The road was quite uneven and bumpy, making Ming Huaixi look like an expert at nodding.

We arrived at the entrance of a village, took a table and chairs off the car, and hung a flag next to the table that said "Free Pulse Diagnosis". According to past experience, no one would come at first because most of the country people were illiterate.

Ming Huaixi has been practicing medicine like this for seven months. He basically stays in each place for a few days, provides free medical treatment, and then prescribes some medicines that ordinary people can afford.

Of course, there are some diseases that cannot be cured by ordinary prescriptions. Because the common people have little knowledge, they sometimes use those prescriptions, or even delete some of them, which makes the condition worse.

So she usually asked the village chief to be a witness, and every time she would sternly warn the villagers not to be too smart for fear of being blackmailed.

Ming Huaixi once met an old woman who came to see a doctor. However, her illness was very serious, but it could not be seen from the outside. If she got sick, it would be her life. If she drank Ming Huaixi's prescription for a period of time, unless there were special circumstances, she would generally not get sick.

However, there was one medicine in the medicine that was a little more expensive and needed to be taken for a month. The old woman and her family thought it was just one medicine, so they didn't bring that medicine. After taking the medicine, it directly triggered the old woman's illness, and the old woman died on the same day.

The family carried the old woman who was only breathing her last to Ming Huaixi and made a scene, saying that she was a quack and was harming people. Ming Huaixi knew as soon as he felt the old woman's pulse that they did not follow the prescription and barely saved her life after giving her acupuncture, but she had to take good care of herself from then on.

Afterwards, he pointed out that the family was being too clever, and invited an old doctor from Wanjintang in the town at their own expense to take the woman's pulse, confirming that what Ming Huaixi said was true.

Thinking of the guilty look in that family's eyes and the hint of disdain they showed towards the old woman, Ming Huaixi felt a little sad. If they followed her prescription, their family would be able to afford it, but they would not go bankrupt either.

The law of the time required one year of hard labor to be performed on those who falsely accused or framed a doctor. This happened this time because the area was too remote and the people knew little about the law. Under the clan system, they would never go to the village if they could solve the problem at home, and would never go to the government if they could solve the problem in the village.

Ming Huaixi didn't want to kill them all, he just took out the law and explained it to them. The old woman would never be able to contribute anything to the family again, so this would be a lesson for his family.

After that, Ming Huaixi became much more cautious when practicing medicine. Every time he would first popularize the laws on false accusations against doctors, and basically he never encountered such a thing again. If some prescriptions could be used as folk remedies, Ming Huaixi would tell them, and if they could not, Ming Huaixi would inform them in advance.

But all in all, Ming Huaixi is very welcome wherever he goes. Medical treatment is expensive and difficult for ordinary people, so they are very happy to have free doctors to treat them.

Everyone in the country has some minor illness, but unless they really can't bear it, they usually don't go to the doctor. In their minds, seeing a doctor is a very expensive thing.

After practicing medicine for several months, Ming Huaixi's medical experience has increased dramatically. He has also encountered complicated illnesses. Ming Huaixi will stay there for a period of time, studying the records and solving all the problems that can be solved. If the patient dies before the disease is solved, then it can only be his fate.

If there are some rare chronic medical records, Ming Huaixi will record them down and go back to ask her master to see if there is any way to solve them. Her medical experience is too short and she cannot solve all diseases. Of course, the Medical Immortal cannot solve all diseases.

"Hei boy, what do you do? What are you writing?" Not long after Ming Huaixi sat down, an old uncle came to ask Ming Huaixi what he did.

Ming Huaixi replied gently, "Uncle, I am a doctor. I am here to provide free medical consultation to everyone."

"Free consultation? Does that mean they will treat us for free?"

"It's only free consultation and prescription. I don't provide medicinal materials." Ming Huaixi tried to explain it as clearly as possible. She had encountered a case before where someone offered free consultation but thought she was treating patients for free and asked her for medicinal materials. It took her a long time to explain clearly. Every failure is a learning experience. This is exactly what happened to her.

"Oh oh oh, so that's it. Can you let me take a look first?" After the uncle asked clearly, he asked Ming Huaixi to help him take a look.

Ming Huaixi was in no hurry to show it to him, "Uncle, is the village chief here? I need a notary present before I treat you, otherwise it's easy to make mistakes."

"Ah? You still need to find the village chief? Oh, that's right. It does make me feel more at ease with the village chief watching over me. Okay, wait for me to call him over to you."

The old uncle was quite easy to talk to. After he finished speaking, he went back to the village to find the village chief. After a while, he brought back an elderly man.

"Are you the young man who provides free medical treatment to people?" The old village chief narrowed his eyes and looked at Ming Huaixi.

It is obvious that the old village chief is old and has some eyesight. He likes to squint when looking at people, but he means no harm.

"Yes, are you the head of this village? I am a traveling doctor, and I will provide free medical consultations here in the next few days. You can invite villagers to come here for medical treatment, and I will not charge a penny. Of course, I am only responsible for diagnosing and prescribing, and you need to pay for the medicine yourself."

The old village chief looked at the black boy in front of him and thought that since he was young, his medical skills might not be very good, but it was difficult for country people to see a doctor, so it was a rare opportunity for them to have a chance to see a doctor.

"Please wait a moment. Most of the villagers are working in the fields right now. I'll ask someone to see who is willing to come and see the doctor."

The old village chief's attitude towards Ming Huaixi is not very respectful, but it is very good, after all, he is old.

Ming Huaixi first examined the old uncle. The old uncle didn't have any serious illness, but he had many minor problems, all of which were caused by the overwork from doing farm work when he was young. The problems became apparent as he got older.

"Your problem is not serious, it's just that your waist and legs are a little bit weak."

"Yes, I often have back pain, and my legs hurt so much in winter or rainy days that I can hardly walk." The old uncle didn't expect that Ming Huaixi, who looked young, was so accurate in his predictions.

"Your waist is injured because you lifted too many heavy objects when you were young."

"When I was young, I often moved goods for others during the slack season to supplement my family income. At that time, I always felt that I had endless energy, but now I can't do that anymore."

I kind of miss the time when I was young and could do anything.
