The first Taoist priest of the Tang Dynasty

In addition to being able to pinch and count, they basically have very good medical skills, and similarly, they have a whole body of kung fu.

However, not all Taoists have medical skills, but most Taoists have more or less medical skills.

Only some false Taoists, or people who are deceived and deceived, will choose this kind of peasants, or ordinary people to cheat, and use the identity of false Taoists to cheat some money.

In the Tang Dynasty, midwives were also called stable women. Of course, they were also a profession. The official name was Wenbo, but among the people, they were mostly called stable women and midwifes.

"It's been a day? Then I'll go and have a look."

Zhong Wen understood what he wanted to do, and he didn't refuse, he didn't even call him poor, and followed the villager directly to his house.

After all, this is a matter of human life, what's more, Zhong Wen's identity is a Taoist, so he can't tolerate him not agreeing, this is what Li Daoling said on purpose before he went down the mountain.

Ordinary people seek help within their ability, and they must help. First, it is for a good reputation, and second, it is to bring more believers to the Taoist sect. Third, of course, it is also for their own convenience. Maybe, someday Can the person you help save yourself?

"Ah... ah..." Zhong Wen had just arrived in front of an ordinary courtyard when he heard a woman's shouting from inside the room.

According to Zhong Wen's deduction, the labor was not finished in one day, so it must be a dystocia.

If it was a normal delivery, it is estimated that it will be done in a short time.

But now, such a situation is indeed a bit urgent.

Difficult childbirth, in this era, is basically a dead body and two lives.

Even in Zhong Wen's previous life, if dystocia is not handled carefully, it may lead to the disappearance of life.

Although Zhong Wen is not a gynecologist, he still knows some basic common sense. He has never read it, but he has always heard it.

Zhong Wen stood in the courtyard, listening to the screams in the room, he still couldn't bear it.

The arrival of a new life is also the most difficult day for her mother.

Regardless of whether it is a normal birth or a difficult labor, the danger involved is beyond one's own experience.

The day of the child's birthday is the day of the mother's misery.

If the children are not filial, the mother's suffering will be more and longer.

Zhong Wen hopes that everyone in the world can be filial to their mothers, because only in this way can they repay this kindness.

"Ah..." the mothers in the room said one after another.

"Daoist, please save my brother's wife." The villager was so anxious that he was about to kneel down.

Zhong Wen didn't know why the man in front of him was so worried about his brother's wife.

Although the house is giving birth, as a brother's elder brother, he shouldn't act like he is going to be a father.

Zhong Wen had some doubts in his heart, but this kind of doubt was just a kind of curiosity, or even a kind of gossip.

"I'll go in and have a look first."

Zhong Wen no longer wondered why the village man was so eager, and then pushed open the door and walked into the house.

There were three women in the room, an old woman stood by with helpless hands, a middle-aged woman helped pass warm linen to a midwife, and the midwife was delivering the baby.

But this life is indeed not so easy to accept.In one day, the woman on the wooden canopy bed had already been tortured to the point of inhumanity. Apart from screaming, the only thing that could give him strength was the unwillingness in his heart.

"Who are you, get out quickly, women give birth, you can't look around."

Not a while after Zhong Wen entered the room, the midwife raised her head and found a strange man in the room, and then she yelled loudly.

Indeed, as she said, the times are different, men can't enter other people's homes at will, let alone women give birth.

If an ordinary person entered the house, not to mention being yelled at, maybe he was hung up and beaten to death with a stick, that would be normal and can no longer be normal.

"Xin Po, this is the Taoist priest. Hui Niang has been in labor for a day, and the Taoist priest happened to be staying in our village today. That's why I invited the Taoist priest to come over and take a look."

The man outside the house heard the roar inside the house, and quickly explained it aloud.

The midwife, who was called Xin Po, raised her head after hearing the explanation from the man outside, and looked at Zhong Wen carefully.

The midwife just now was in a hurry, she didn't notice that it was a Taoist who entered the house, she just thought it was a man, so she shouted eagerly.

"Please don't blame me, Daoist, I'm also impatient."

The midwife hurriedly apologized to Zhong Wen who came in. After all, after looking carefully just now, she was sure that the person who came in was a Taoist priest, but he was a little younger.

"It's okay, I was invited by the owner to come over to see, how is it going? Can the production continue?"

Zhong Wen didn't care either, the lives of the mother and child were important, and this was not the time to be polite.

"Master Daoist, Huiniang has been in labor for a day, and the baby's head is still missing, so I don't know what to do."

The midwives have been delivering babies for so many years, and have seen many such dystocias, basically one dead body and two dead.

Although I was sad in my heart, there was no good way to do it right now. I could only pray to God to bless the mother lying on the wooden canopy bed and the child in her belly to be safe.

"Hang on, I'll figure out a way."

Zhong Wen looked at the pregnant woman on the bed, comforted her aloud, and then left the room.

"Take me to the kitchen, fetch water to boil water quickly, and if you have salt, get some salt quickly, the lives of mother and child are important, don't care whether salt is precious or not."

After leaving the house, Zhong Wen began to give instructions to the man outside the house.

In the courtyard, apart from the man, there are two other people, maybe these are relatives, otherwise, it would be difficult to come here on this day of childbirth.

The stove boiled water, and Zhong Wen began to prepare the white medicine he was carrying.

Zhong Wen really didn't know about the midwife, and according to Zhong Wen's thinking, he had to have a caesarean section.

But in this day and age, this kind of thing is not so easy.

If disinfection can't be done, everything is useless, not to mention that stopping bleeding is a super troublesome thing, not to mention eliminating inflammation.

At this time, the water is boiled at a low temperature, just for the disinfection in the early stage.

Afterwards, Zhong Wen came out with a spare ginseng, cut it into a small piece, put it in a clay pot, added some water, and boiled it.

"Master Dao, this is ginseng, my family can't afford it."

The man saw Zhong Wen holding a piece of ginseng, and after cutting some, he felt excited, knowing that ginseng is not only for suspending life, but also for invigorating Qi.

However, his family had no money, and seeing the Taoist priest cut some ginseng, he was worried whether the Taoist priest in front of him would take money from his family.

"Nothing, human life is important, some ginseng, don't worry."

How could Zhong Wen not know the meaning of this man's words, it was obviously because he was afraid that he would not be able to afford the cost of ginseng.

Not long after that, the water in the pot was boiled, and Zhong Wen took coarse salt that another man got from someone who didn't know where, and threw it into the pot.

Although salt water has the effect of disinfection, but the effect is not so good.

After all, under such conditions, something is better than nothing.

The ginseng soup would take some time to cook, so Zhong Wen ordered someone to fetch two barrels of salt water and carried them into the house.

"Midwife, use this water to wipe the mother, don't use any other water."

After Zhong Wen entered the house with two wooden barrels of water, he gave instructions to the midwife and went out again.

The three women in the room looked at each other, not knowing what the Taoist priest just now meant, but right now they could only obey the Taoist priest's orders.

Time passed very slowly, and Zhong Wen didn't know how long the women in the house could last.

At that moment, there was no sound in the house. After a day-long labor, the mother's energy had been completely exhausted. Apart from a slight whirring sound, there was no other screaming sound.

"Daoist, please save Hui Niang and the child in her belly."

The old woman who came out of the house came to the courtyard, yelled to Zhong Wen, and knelt down directly.

"Don't be like this, please get up quickly." Zhong Wen watched the old woman kneel to him, and quickly helped her up.

"Daozhang, please save my grandson."

After being supported by Zhong Wen, the old woman wiped her tears and begged.

At this moment, Zhong Wen knew the identity of this old lady.

It turned out that the old woman was the elder of the family, the man's mother, and even the mother-in-law of the childbirth.

Otherwise, she wouldn't have knelt down to Zhong Wen as soon as she stepped out of the house.

The midwife couldn't get her grandson, so she could only turn her hopes to the Taoist priest outside the courtyard, hoping that the Taoist priest could bring her a good grandson.

"The old lady doesn't need to do this, the poor should do everything they can."

Zhong Wen couldn't bear it, he was originally a child of a peasant family, and he couldn't bear to see this kind of suffering, let alone an old woman kneeling to him.

There are so many difficulties in life. The difficulty at the time of birth is a gate of hell. If you can't get out, you can only reincarnate.

After stepping out, there is suffering in the world again, one after another.

If you live to the full, it means that you have come to the end, and you have tasted all the sufferings in life.

At this time, the child in the womb of the mother in the house has even passed the first hurdle in his life so difficult, and his future life may be even more difficult.

Although Zhong Wen is a Taoist, he has read countless books and scriptures, most of which are about doing good deeds.

Goodness must be done, whether it is a great kindness or a small kindness, you must do it.

If you do good deeds, you will naturally achieve blessings and merits.

The sage does not accumulate, he thinks that the more he has, the more he gives to others.You can understand the original meaning of this sentence of Lao Tzu, you must do more good deeds, merit is good deeds, and virtue is kindness.

Whether it's the old woman, or the mother who is in pain, or even the child in that belly.

In Zhong Wen's eyes at this time, he can achieve his good deeds and kindness, and it is more likely to achieve his blessings and merits. As for whether he can do it or not, Zhong Wen can only do his best.

Chapter 149 The Envoy of Life

As night fell, the cold air slowly rose.

"Daoist, the ginseng soup is ready." Two quarters of an hour later, the man who was boiling ginseng soup in the kitchen came over.

"Hurry up and give this ginseng soup to the parturient woman, so as to give her some vitality. Remember, don't drink it too often."

After hearing this, Zhong Wen gave instructions to the man.

Zhong Wen really didn't know if the ginseng soup would be effective. After drinking the ginseng soup, his energy would definitely increase, but whether it would be helpful for the production matter, Zhong Wen didn't know for sure.

When he didn't have any confidence, Zhong Wen would basically make two-handed preparations.

After that, Zhong Wen took out his spare knife from inside his leggings.

That's right, Zhong Wen is such a guy who hides weapons everywhere.

This small knife was also made by Zhong Wen himself, and it was just a small knife that Zhong Wen had as a spare.

Traveling alone, it is inevitable that he will sleep in the wilderness and forests. He only has the meteorite sword, but it is not easy to use the sword left by the ancestor to deal with wild animals and so on.

Therefore, there is such a small knife, and it is also convenient for Zhong Wen himself.

The small knife is just an ordinary knife made of iron, but it was polished by Zhong Wen very beautifully.

Moreover, Zhong Wen also carried out heat treatment, although this heat treatment was only fired in a small homemade earthen kiln, and it was not heat treatment at all.

After all, there is no such thing as super-high temperature, so there is no heat treatment, but it can always increase the hardness, otherwise, Zhong Wen would not do such useless work.And after going through a lot of processes, the hardness will naturally increase.

Zhong Wen took the knife, sharpened it a bit, and fired it in the stove for a while.

Then, I got some salt water and started soaking.

Zhong Wen's approach really made those men a little confused.

Most other people deliver babies with hot water cloth towels. How about you, take a small knife and grind it, burn it and soak it. How is this a delivery? Is this planning to kill someone?

"I know you have some doubts in your heart, but the mother in the house is already in a dilemma. If the ginseng soup doesn't work, I can only use my own method to save people. If you want to save the mother and her The child in the womb, it's best not to say too much, and don't ask too much."

Zhong Wen's practice of caesarean section is really strange in this era.

If he really stabbed someone in the stomach, not to mention scaring him to death, he would probably regard Zhong Wen as a monster.

"Taoist priest, you are..." The man of the master's family really didn't know the meaning of what the Taoist priest in front of him said.

In his heart, he really hoped that the Taoist priest could save the life of his brother and wife, and even more hoped to save the child in his belly.After all, his brother has gone, and if there are no more heirs, his family will be wiped out.

Although this man had a wife and once had children, they all died young.

The fate of this family has been full of hardships.

His father passed away a few years ago, and his brother also died of illness half a year ago. As for his several children, they also died one after another.
