Magical Medicine in ancient times
Chapter 83 Zhou Jin heard from several people...
Zhou Jin was really confused when he heard the words of several people.
Since you don't understand, then don't listen, he asked directly: "Who ordered you to come here?"
Several people paused, you look at me, I look at you.Finally, a thin-looking man whispered: "Master God of Medicine, no one ordered us, we came here by ourselves, we are sincere, just to pray to you!"
"Yes, yes..." Everyone nodded, and under the dim candlelight, they looked at Zhou Jin with green eyes.
Zhou Jin couldn't help trembling in his heart, and goose bumps immediately appeared on his arms.
These people are too infiltrating, how can they come here to offer incense in the middle of the night like a gangster organization, maybe they can do some crazy things!
Zhou Jin's heart was flustered, he had to ask if there was any strange organization behind it, maybe someone was bluffing and cheating in his name!
"Then how did you come here to offer... incense?"
"I thought of it!" A man with big eyes next to him said immediately, his eyes were shining brightly, as if he was very proud.Seeing Zhou Jin looking at him, he was very excited, and the muscles on his face were trembling.
Zhou Jin: ...
Then you are really awesome!
"Oh?"
The man with big eyes laughed and said, "I thought Xiahegou Village was a bit far away, and it would be inconvenient for us to go there. I just thought that since the God of Medicine himself is in the town, it would be more convenient for us to come here. Praying is definitely more effective!"
Zhou Jin was even more confused when he heard this, why did he mention Xiahegou Village?Could it be that some kind of organization gathered in Xiahegou Village to confuse the people?
Zhou Jin frowned, thought for a moment, and asked, "Why are you going to Xiahegou Village?"
"Eh..." Everyone looked at Zhou Jin with a hint of confusion on their faces, "Master God of Medicine, you see what you said, we went to Xiahegou Village to worship you, of course!"
Worship?What a joke, he's not dead yet!
"We heard that the Temple of Medicine is effective!" Lao Li hurriedly echoed, "Sister-in-law Awang from my village went to Xiahegou to visit relatives a few days ago, and followed them to worship in the Temple of Medicine. The rash that has been itchy for several days will be healed as soon as I come back!"
After he finished speaking, he laughed again, not forgetting to flatter him, "Master God of Medicine, you really have boundless magic power!"
Zhou Jin: ...
The system shrank itself into a ball, trembling.
He became more and more sure that Xiahegou must have been brainwashed by a group of gangsters, maybe the so-called medical shrine is the den!
As for that Mrs. Awang, the rash on her body was probably caused by contact with something, or by eating some allergic food. The Temple of Medicine has worked!
This is purely psychological!
Zhou Jin planned to go down to the river ditch in person after dawn, but he wanted to see who was making these lies in his name to confuse the public!
Zhou Jin warned them not to come to the hospital to put these things again, and told them to go back quickly.
It was very complicated for a few people to hear it, and they were a little scared and a little regretful.But seeing Zhou Jin's resolute attitude, he had no choice but to get up slowly. Before leaving, Ah Qiu approached him carefully and asked, "My lord, I want a child..."
Zhou Jin's face immediately darkened, and he wanted to go back to find his wife to give birth to the child!What are you talking to him about?
Seeing this, several people hurriedly picked up the basket on the ground and walked away in a hurry.
The scorching sun was scorching, and the glaring sun hung high in the blue sky, making the dust on the ground scorching hot, as if it was going to be scalded when you stepped on it, and the grass on both sides of the road also drooped its head.
In the white and miserable daylight, a small tea shop stands on a flat ground, and a sail flag hangs high in front of the door, which is also curled down dryly by the heat.
There were about five or six tables in the tea shop, but there were no people inside.Cicada chirped tirelessly, wantonly venting the heat of summer.Archie sat drowsy at the counter, raising his hand from time to time to wave away the flies in front of him.
"Dude, bring a pot of cold tea!" A clear voice suddenly came from ahead, and Archie straightened up and looked forward.
But I saw a young man wearing a bamboo hat walking into the tea shop with his whole body wrapped in heat. He was wearing a light-colored robe and a snow-white brocade belt around his waist, making him look thin and tall.
"Guest officer, please sit down, the cold tea will be here soon!" Archie cheered up and replied, "Do you need anything else to eat?" , although simple and elegant, the texture is really excellent,
"No need, that's all!"
"Okay!" Archie hurriedly turned around and went back to the house to prepare tea.
But after a while, Archie came out with the teapot in hand. He saw the young man sitting in the corner, and the bamboo hat on his head was not taken off, so he couldn't see his face clearly.
He was a little curious in his heart, how uncomfortable it is to wear a bamboo hat in such a hot weather!Since I entered the tea shop, why didn't I take it down to cool off!
He placed the teapot and teacups on the table and made tea for the boy.He quietly raised his head to look at the young man again, and saw that his snow-white neck was already covered with fine beads of sweat, so he said, "Guest officer, why don't you take off your bamboo hat, it's so hot here, be careful of heatstroke!"
Zhou Jin is also very hot!Several times he couldn't help but want to take off the bamboo hat, but he couldn't!
It's no wonder that he wants to cover up like this, if he doesn't do this, I'm afraid he won't be able to be as clean as this!
This is the lower north slope of Xiahegou Village, and it is also the place where the plague patients were treated collectively.Zhou Jin still remembered that there was no such tea shop in Xiabei Slope back then.This place was originally a remote place in the north of Xiahegou, full of high and low hillsides and weeds.There is only one old house of the village chief's house, which has long been empty and was temporarily used as a place to house patients.
But now, the wild grass covered here has been trampled out of a path, leading directly to the back of the mountain.
"Thank you, no need!"
Archie heard his voice again, it was really clear and pleasant, like a cold spring.This made him wonder what the other party looked like, he must be very good-looking!
Seeing that he did not leave after making the tea, Zhou Jin wanted to ask him, "Brother, do you know the Temple of Medicine here?"
When Archie heard this, his eyes lit up immediately, and he sat sideways on the chair at the next table, and began to chatter, "You're asking the right person! This shrine of medicine is the most powerful in the river ditch! The God of Medicine enshrined inside has boundless mana, and will respond to every request. No matter what you ask for, as long as you are sincere, your wish will be granted..."
Zhou Jin's eyebrows twitched immediately, this brainwashing is a bit serious!I don't know what is the origin of the person behind the scenes, so powerful?
He coughed lightly and said, "Do you know who erected this Temple of Medicine?"
"It's the village head!" Archie blurted out, his face full of pride.
Zhou Jin was taken aback, village chief?It's the village head who is over half a century old and as timid as a mouse, how can he have this ability!
Seeing that Zhou Jin didn't speak, Archie began to preach on his own with a loud voice, hoping to let everyone know how powerful this medical shrine is: "You don't know, when there was a plague in our village, almost the whole village died. Well, it’s all thanks to the God of Medicine who came to drive away the plague ghost and saved us all! We are very grateful in our hearts, the village chief organized everyone to build a shrine to the God of Medicine here, mainly to thank the God of Medicine!"
At this time the system finally started to speak, "Host, you are thinking too much! This shrine of medicine was specially built for you by these people in order to thank you for saving them! How can there be so many conspiracies! It's so hot today , why did you come all the way to suffer, let's go back quickly!"
Zhou Jin frowned, feeling that there was something wrong in his heart, if the truth was the case, then what happened to the boundless mana and responsiveness?He is very convinced that he does not have this function!
"Wait a little longer, they're here anyway, I'll go to the Medical Shrine to have a look later, just bear with it!"
When No. 01 heard this, he jumped up and down a few times anxiously, and if he continued, he might not be able to hide it!
Zhou Jin only thought that the system was dissatisfied with the hot weather, but he couldn't go back home for the time being, he was already here, how could it be possible if he didn't go and see!
And speaking of it, he was much more uncomfortable than No. 01. The high temperature made him very uncomfortable, his clothes were wet and sticky to his body with sweat, and the bamboo hat on his head was covered with sweat. The heat couldn't dissipate. Way to take it off.
Zhou Jin felt a little complicated, "Are you sure that the medical shrine was built by the village chief?"
"Of course! I also participated in it!" Archie stared firmly, thinking that he was also a part of the construction of the medical shrine, and he was full of pride in his heart.
"Originally, we built the Temple of Medicine to thank the God of Medicine for his kindness to us. Once an old man in the village went to pay homage and came back, and the wind and cold on his body healed! Many people came back because of worshiping the doctor. The Lord God has fulfilled his wish! Only then did everyone know that the Temple of Medicine is so effective! Later, more and more people came to worship at the Temple of Medicine!" Archie's face was full of excitement, and his eyes sparkled "I also went to pay homage to the God of Medicine. At that time, I thought that God of Medicine would bless me to make a small fortune. Then I opened a tea shop here. I didn't expect the business to be good!"
Good business?Zhou Jin looked around, but found no one!
Archie saw that he didn't believe it, and a simple and honest smile appeared on his face, "It will be noon, there must be no people! Usually there are more people in the morning and afternoon. Anyway, this tea shop also gave me a few The savings are all thanks to the God of Medicine!"
Isn't it because you have a good business mind and found a business opportunity?
Zhou Jin picked up the teacup and took a sip, moistening his dry throat, "Isn't this God of Medicine specializing in medicine? You can't compete with him in seeking wealth, so it's his credit!"
"Hush!" Archie immediately widened his eyes, a little annoyed, as if he was dissatisfied with Zhou Jin's disrespect for the God of Medicine, "Don't say that, be careful that the God of Medicine is angry when he hears it! The God of Medicine is amazing! But Fulfilling my little wish, what can't be done! It's just that the God of Medicine has appeared!"
Seeing that he was a little angry, Zhou Jin quickly changed the subject, "Is it true that this God of Medicine will appear as long as he comes to pray?"
"Of course!" Ali raised the corners of his lips and said, "As long as you are sincere, you can!"
At this point, he suddenly stopped. He looked at Zhou Jin's tightly covered head for a while, and asked with a bit of hesitation: "Young master, are you also here to pray at the Temple of Medicine?"
Zhou Jin paused, put down his teacup, and nodded in embarrassment.
Archie saw that he lowered his head slightly, and the bamboo hat on his head was also hanging low, as if he didn't want him to see his face.A suspicion suddenly floated in his mind, could it be that this son had some kind of facial illness, and he came to the shrine to pray for it?
It turned out that he inquired about the Temple of Medicine because he was worried that his illness would not recover!A trace of pity floated in Archie's heart, and he instantly forgave Zhou Jin's disrespect to the God of Medicine just now.
He felt a little guilty about the other party in his heart.Thinking that he asked the other party to take off the bamboo hat just now, isn't that adding salt to his wounds!
He moved his body uncomfortably, as if nails were attached to the stool, and he said in a nonchalant voice, "My lord, don't worry, the God of Medicine has great powers and compassion, as long as you pray sincerely, your illness will definitely heal." Get well!"
Zhou Jin's hand holding the teacup froze, huh?What's wrong with him?
At this moment, not far away, two more women came here under the scorching sun. They carried baskets in their hands, wrapped headscarves on their heads, and showed a flushed face.
The two walked into the tea shop together, and Archie greeted him immediately, and warmly greeted him, "Two guests, what do you want?"
They lowered their heads and tore off the cloth towels on their heads. Their hair was already wet with sweat and stuck to their flushed cheeks.
"Archie, bring us a pot of cold water, it's too hot today!"
The two shouted while sitting in the middle seat in a hurry.Fanning the wind with a cloth towel in his hand, his temple hair was all wet, and sweat dripped down his chin.
"It turned out to be Aunt Qing! You came to the Medical Shrine again today!" Archie immediately recognized the woman in front of them, who was from the village next door to them.
"Today I brought my sister here to pay homage to the God of Medicine. For some reason, her man has been having nightmares all the time. He always wants to go out at night without sleeping! We all guessed that it was an evil spirit. Come here and let the God of Medicine exorcise the evil spirits! "
Zhou Jin shook his hand and almost spilled the tea.
This God of Medicine really wears several hats!
The woman sitting next to her had a sad expression on her face, "Sister, is this Temple of Medicine really effective? Why haven't I heard of it before?"
Aunt Qing gulped down a pot of water, took a deep breath, and said hurriedly after hearing the words: "Oh, those who don't know are innocent, no wonder!" Then she lowered her volume and said, "I said What's the matter with you? Are you saying this casually? Sincerity leads to wisdom, if you question the God of Medicine like this, if it doesn't work then don't cry!"
A look of fear immediately appeared on Arong's face, and his eyes were wet, "Sister, what should I do? I didn't do it on purpose, I was just worried about my man..."
"Don't be afraid, the God of Medicine is kind and will definitely help you!" Seeing that she was really worried, Aunt Qing patted her on the shoulder comfortingly.
"Yes, as long as you pray sincerely, the God of Medicine will definitely help you!" Archie also comforted beside him.
Ah Rong wiped away his tears, and hummed, "Sister, let's go to the Temple of Medicine to pay our respects!"
The two stepped up the basket and were about to leave. Seeing this, Zhou Jin quickly got up and said, "Aunts, can I let you go together?"
The two stopped and looked at him suspiciously.
"Aunt Qing, this son also came to the Medical Shrine to pray, so you can lead him the way."
"So I'm also a believer of the God of Medicine, so let's come together!" Aunt Qing readily agreed.
The three left the tea shop.On the way, Aunt Qing and the others wrapped cloth scarves around their heads to shield them from the sun. Zhou Jin followed them ten meters away. After all, this is ancient times. If you walk too close, it is inevitable that someone will gossip, so it is better to be cautious!
On the way, I met some men and women who came to the Medical Shrine to worship. They all carried baskets and looked curiously at Zhou Jin, who was empty-handed.Zhou Jin realized that the things in these baskets should be used by them to worship the God of Medicine. No wonder Aunt Qing and the others were a little surprised when Zhou Jin proposed to go with them just now!
But this shrine of medicine is really shabby, you have to bring your own incense candles!
After walking for about ten minutes, a small temple appeared in front of it. The outer wall was made of red mud, and it was a square room.The front of the door is very clean. There is a tall and long incense burner directly in front of the door, and there are many unburned incense candles left by customers who came to offer incense in the morning.
As soon as Zhou Jin approached, he felt that it was hotter than outside, and even the air seemed to be distorted by the steam.
The accompanying people opened the basket one after another, took out the incense candles inside, lit them and inserted them into the incense burner.Suddenly it was smoky and hot.They clasped their hands together, slightly closed their eyes, and opened and closed their mouths, obviously praying.
Zhou Jin walked to the door. The room was very bright. Although it was simple, it was cleaned extremely clean. It was obvious that someone was maintaining it carefully.A tall stone statue in the middle is almost touching the roof.The body of the stone statue is painted with a piece of blue, its face is red and white, and the facial features can be vaguely seen.He held an osmanthus flower in his left hand and a golden needle in his right hand, looking down at all the living beings outside.
Zhou Jin: ...
Could this be him?
Zhou Jin looked at the tall red, green and green stone statues as if the paint had been knocked over, and he really had mixed feelings in his heart.
This turned out to be his stone statue!The weird facial features and colorful paints have nothing in common with him.But with the sweet-scented osmanthus and golden needles in his hands, even if Zhou Jin didn't want to admit it, he had to accept this fact!
"What are you doing here?"
A person suddenly appeared behind the stone statue, startling Zhou Jin!He followed the prestige and was startled, this is not the village chief!
Zhou Jin quickly lowered his head, afraid of being recognized, "I came here to pray."
"Pray and go outside to burn incense. Don't come here casually. The God of Medicine is happy!" the village chief said in a calm voice, and at this time he was quite cold.
Zhou Jin nodded hurriedly, turned and exited the room.
"Tongtong, have you seen it? It's really my stone statue!" Zhou Jin exclaimed in his head, this is too weird!
"Yes, host, I saw it too. These people really respect you, and even built a shrine for you!" No. 01 was extremely guilty, "Since it has been confirmed that there is no **** organization, let's go back soon ! Nothing to see here!"
"Don't you think it's weird? It is supposed to be just a shrine, why do so many people come to offer incense? And they say categorically that it will be effective? I'm not a real god!"
"Uh, this..."
Zhou Jin frowned, "Tongtong, why do I think you're a little weird today? You're usually the one who likes to watch the excitement the most, why are you so determined to leave today?" Zhou Jin finally sensed something was wrong.
"I didn't! I just...I just feel too hot! Yes, it's too hot! The temperature is so high that it's killing me!" No. 01 kept denying that there was no silver 300 taels here. .
Zhou Jin narrowed his eyes, feeling more and more suspicious.
"You didn't bring any joss sticks, did you? Hey, here you are!" A thin incense stick was suddenly held up in front of Zhou Jin. He looked up and saw Sister-in-law Qing's face was covered with sweat, her eyes were smiling, "Take it, and pray hard." I hope that the God of Medicine will definitely bless you when he hears your wish!"
Zhou Jin took Xixiang in a daze, and stood there without moving.
"What are you doing in a daze? Hurry up and offer incense, young people are just stupid!"
Only then was Zhou Jin pushed forward, and he lit the fine incense and inserted it into the stove full of incense ash.Across the lingering fireworks at the door, the tall statues in the house give people a sense of mystery.
In the clear sky, Zhou Jin couldn't help shaking.This feeling is really weird, probably there is no second person in this world who can burn incense on his own stone statue.
In such a short time, more and more people came to the gate, almost all of them were people from the nearby villages. They spread the word to ten, ten to hundreds. I believe that it will not be long before everyone knows this small temple. !
As long as Zhou Jin thinks of the scene he will face in the future, his hair stands on end.In order to prevent everyone from paying attention to him, he hid in a shady corner on one side, watching a steady stream of people come to offer incense, and the smoke almost enveloped this small world.
"All, tell me the truth, what have you done?"
"I really didn't, host, don't wrong me..."
Zhou Jin's face darkened in an instant, "Tongtong, you still haven't told the truth at this time! This matter is very serious, I hope you don't hide it from me! We are dependent on each other, and if something happens to me, you can't escape! "
Seeing that Zhou Jin was really angry on the 01st, he paused for a moment, and finally whispered: "I'm sorry host, I actually already knew about this..."
really!
Zhou Jin looked at the pious people in front of him hidden behind the smog, and he felt worried. He asked in a cold voice, "So what did you do here?"
"I, I didn't do anything, I just gave them some energy..." No. 01 panicked.
"What are you doing?" Zhou Jin laughed angrily. No wonder these people are so crazy. They have boundless mana, supernatural powers, and multiple roles. It turns out that they are all caused by the system!It's ridiculous that he still said that he wanted to find out the mastermind behind the scenes, but the mastermind was by his side!
"Host, don't be angry, I didn't mean it..." No. 01 sensed Zhou Jin's anger, and felt terrified in his heart.
"Then why did you do this? Do you know that if this incident becomes serious, how can we practice medicine in the clinic in the future!"
"I'm sorry, Ah Jin, I just want energy too much! These believers and their admiration for you will be transformed into energy, and I discovered it by accident. I just helped the people who came to pray that day, and then I felt it. The increase in energy. The more people come to pray, the more energy I will have. I'm sorry, Jin, I didn't expect things to turn out like this..."
"I treat diseases and save people every day, and I never stop collecting energy. Why are you in such a hurry?" Zhou Jin felt a sense of powerlessness in his heart.
"Host, I want to become a human. I don't want to stay in your spiritual domain all the time. I'm almost there..."
Zhou Jin was taken aback, "Become a human?"
No. 01 was silent for a while, and finally revealed his true identity.
The shady corner here and the smog outside seemed to be two worlds. Cicada's mournful cry echoed in his ears, and the bright white sunlight hit the ground, as if distorting the ground.
Zhou Jin was taken aback when he heard that, so No. 01 is that scientist Lom?Is this some fantasy novel?People have turned into systems, and now they want to change from systems to people!
Zhou Jin couldn't help wondering if he really came from the interstellar era?Are you sure it's not from some world of cultivating immortals?
But it makes sense if this is the case, no wonder Zhou Jin always feels that the system sometimes doesn't look like a data, and the emotions are too full!
They have been together for so long and have been supporting each other until now. It can be said that they have regarded each other as their closest people!Knowing what happened to him, Zhou Jin was also very distressed.At the same time, there is a bit of sympathy.
Zhou Jin sighed inwardly, thinking that the system was originally a proud and promising scientist, but because of an accident, it merged with the system he created, and became a strange creature that is not like a person, and its data is not like data!No wonder he was so obsessed with becoming a human!
"How much energy do you have now?" The system can turn into a human, of course he is also happy for him.
No. 01 whispered: "If the current progress is made, it will probably be ready in a few days..." Seeing Zhou Jin's frown, he quickly said: "But host, don't worry, I will Although I still have the memory of being Rom, I am no longer a human being. Even if I can transform into a human form, I am still just a system! We are already bound, and I will not leave you..."
Since you don't understand, then don't listen, he asked directly: "Who ordered you to come here?"
Several people paused, you look at me, I look at you.Finally, a thin-looking man whispered: "Master God of Medicine, no one ordered us, we came here by ourselves, we are sincere, just to pray to you!"
"Yes, yes..." Everyone nodded, and under the dim candlelight, they looked at Zhou Jin with green eyes.
Zhou Jin couldn't help trembling in his heart, and goose bumps immediately appeared on his arms.
These people are too infiltrating, how can they come here to offer incense in the middle of the night like a gangster organization, maybe they can do some crazy things!
Zhou Jin's heart was flustered, he had to ask if there was any strange organization behind it, maybe someone was bluffing and cheating in his name!
"Then how did you come here to offer... incense?"
"I thought of it!" A man with big eyes next to him said immediately, his eyes were shining brightly, as if he was very proud.Seeing Zhou Jin looking at him, he was very excited, and the muscles on his face were trembling.
Zhou Jin: ...
Then you are really awesome!
"Oh?"
The man with big eyes laughed and said, "I thought Xiahegou Village was a bit far away, and it would be inconvenient for us to go there. I just thought that since the God of Medicine himself is in the town, it would be more convenient for us to come here. Praying is definitely more effective!"
Zhou Jin was even more confused when he heard this, why did he mention Xiahegou Village?Could it be that some kind of organization gathered in Xiahegou Village to confuse the people?
Zhou Jin frowned, thought for a moment, and asked, "Why are you going to Xiahegou Village?"
"Eh..." Everyone looked at Zhou Jin with a hint of confusion on their faces, "Master God of Medicine, you see what you said, we went to Xiahegou Village to worship you, of course!"
Worship?What a joke, he's not dead yet!
"We heard that the Temple of Medicine is effective!" Lao Li hurriedly echoed, "Sister-in-law Awang from my village went to Xiahegou to visit relatives a few days ago, and followed them to worship in the Temple of Medicine. The rash that has been itchy for several days will be healed as soon as I come back!"
After he finished speaking, he laughed again, not forgetting to flatter him, "Master God of Medicine, you really have boundless magic power!"
Zhou Jin: ...
The system shrank itself into a ball, trembling.
He became more and more sure that Xiahegou must have been brainwashed by a group of gangsters, maybe the so-called medical shrine is the den!
As for that Mrs. Awang, the rash on her body was probably caused by contact with something, or by eating some allergic food. The Temple of Medicine has worked!
This is purely psychological!
Zhou Jin planned to go down to the river ditch in person after dawn, but he wanted to see who was making these lies in his name to confuse the public!

It was very complicated for a few people to hear it, and they were a little scared and a little regretful.But seeing Zhou Jin's resolute attitude, he had no choice but to get up slowly. Before leaving, Ah Qiu approached him carefully and asked, "My lord, I want a child..."
Zhou Jin's face immediately darkened, and he wanted to go back to find his wife to give birth to the child!What are you talking to him about?
Seeing this, several people hurriedly picked up the basket on the ground and walked away in a hurry.
The scorching sun was scorching, and the glaring sun hung high in the blue sky, making the dust on the ground scorching hot, as if it was going to be scalded when you stepped on it, and the grass on both sides of the road also drooped its head.
In the white and miserable daylight, a small tea shop stands on a flat ground, and a sail flag hangs high in front of the door, which is also curled down dryly by the heat.
There were about five or six tables in the tea shop, but there were no people inside.Cicada chirped tirelessly, wantonly venting the heat of summer.Archie sat drowsy at the counter, raising his hand from time to time to wave away the flies in front of him.
"Dude, bring a pot of cold tea!" A clear voice suddenly came from ahead, and Archie straightened up and looked forward.
But I saw a young man wearing a bamboo hat walking into the tea shop with his whole body wrapped in heat. He was wearing a light-colored robe and a snow-white brocade belt around his waist, making him look thin and tall.
"Guest officer, please sit down, the cold tea will be here soon!" Archie cheered up and replied, "Do you need anything else to eat?" , although simple and elegant, the texture is really excellent,
"No need, that's all!"

"Thank you, no need!"
Archie heard his voice again, it was really clear and pleasant, like a cold spring.This made him wonder what the other party looked like, he must be very good-looking!

When No. 01 heard this, he jumped up and down a few times anxiously, and if he continued, he might not be able to hide it!
Zhou Jin only thought that the system was dissatisfied with the hot weather, but he couldn't go back home for the time being, he was already here, how could it be possible if he didn't go and see!
And speaking of it, he was much more uncomfortable than No. 01. The high temperature made him very uncomfortable, his clothes were wet and sticky to his body with sweat, and the bamboo hat on his head was covered with sweat. The heat couldn't dissipate. Way to take it off.
Zhou Jin felt a little complicated, "Are you sure that the medical shrine was built by the village chief?"
"Of course! I also participated in it!" Archie stared firmly, thinking that he was also a part of the construction of the medical shrine, and he was full of pride in his heart.
"Originally, we built the Temple of Medicine to thank the God of Medicine for his kindness to us. Once an old man in the village went to pay homage and came back, and the wind and cold on his body healed! Many people came back because of worshiping the doctor. The Lord God has fulfilled his wish! Only then did everyone know that the Temple of Medicine is so effective! Later, more and more people came to worship at the Temple of Medicine!" Archie's face was full of excitement, and his eyes sparkled "I also went to pay homage to the God of Medicine. At that time, I thought that God of Medicine would bless me to make a small fortune. Then I opened a tea shop here. I didn't expect the business to be good!"
Good business?Zhou Jin looked around, but found no one!
Archie saw that he didn't believe it, and a simple and honest smile appeared on his face, "It will be noon, there must be no people! Usually there are more people in the morning and afternoon. Anyway, this tea shop also gave me a few The savings are all thanks to the God of Medicine!"
Isn't it because you have a good business mind and found a business opportunity?
Zhou Jin picked up the teacup and took a sip, moistening his dry throat, "Isn't this God of Medicine specializing in medicine? You can't compete with him in seeking wealth, so it's his credit!"
"Hush!" Archie immediately widened his eyes, a little annoyed, as if he was dissatisfied with Zhou Jin's disrespect for the God of Medicine, "Don't say that, be careful that the God of Medicine is angry when he hears it! The God of Medicine is amazing! But Fulfilling my little wish, what can't be done! It's just that the God of Medicine has appeared!"
Seeing that he was a little angry, Zhou Jin quickly changed the subject, "Is it true that this God of Medicine will appear as long as he comes to pray?"
"Of course!" Ali raised the corners of his lips and said, "As long as you are sincere, you can!"
At this point, he suddenly stopped. He looked at Zhou Jin's tightly covered head for a while, and asked with a bit of hesitation: "Young master, are you also here to pray at the Temple of Medicine?"
Zhou Jin paused, put down his teacup, and nodded in embarrassment.
Archie saw that he lowered his head slightly, and the bamboo hat on his head was also hanging low, as if he didn't want him to see his face.A suspicion suddenly floated in his mind, could it be that this son had some kind of facial illness, and he came to the shrine to pray for it?
It turned out that he inquired about the Temple of Medicine because he was worried that his illness would not recover!A trace of pity floated in Archie's heart, and he instantly forgave Zhou Jin's disrespect to the God of Medicine just now.
He felt a little guilty about the other party in his heart.Thinking that he asked the other party to take off the bamboo hat just now, isn't that adding salt to his wounds!
He moved his body uncomfortably, as if nails were attached to the stool, and he said in a nonchalant voice, "My lord, don't worry, the God of Medicine has great powers and compassion, as long as you pray sincerely, your illness will definitely heal." Get well!"
Zhou Jin's hand holding the teacup froze, huh?What's wrong with him?
At this moment, not far away, two more women came here under the scorching sun. They carried baskets in their hands, wrapped headscarves on their heads, and showed a flushed face.
The two walked into the tea shop together, and Archie greeted him immediately, and warmly greeted him, "Two guests, what do you want?"
They lowered their heads and tore off the cloth towels on their heads. Their hair was already wet with sweat and stuck to their flushed cheeks.
"Archie, bring us a pot of cold water, it's too hot today!"
The two shouted while sitting in the middle seat in a hurry.Fanning the wind with a cloth towel in his hand, his temple hair was all wet, and sweat dripped down his chin.
"It turned out to be Aunt Qing! You came to the Medical Shrine again today!" Archie immediately recognized the woman in front of them, who was from the village next door to them.
"Today I brought my sister here to pay homage to the God of Medicine. For some reason, her man has been having nightmares all the time. He always wants to go out at night without sleeping! We all guessed that it was an evil spirit. Come here and let the God of Medicine exorcise the evil spirits! "
Zhou Jin shook his hand and almost spilled the tea.
This God of Medicine really wears several hats!
The woman sitting next to her had a sad expression on her face, "Sister, is this Temple of Medicine really effective? Why haven't I heard of it before?"
Aunt Qing gulped down a pot of water, took a deep breath, and said hurriedly after hearing the words: "Oh, those who don't know are innocent, no wonder!" Then she lowered her volume and said, "I said What's the matter with you? Are you saying this casually? Sincerity leads to wisdom, if you question the God of Medicine like this, if it doesn't work then don't cry!"
A look of fear immediately appeared on Arong's face, and his eyes were wet, "Sister, what should I do? I didn't do it on purpose, I was just worried about my man..."
"Don't be afraid, the God of Medicine is kind and will definitely help you!" Seeing that she was really worried, Aunt Qing patted her on the shoulder comfortingly.
"Yes, as long as you pray sincerely, the God of Medicine will definitely help you!" Archie also comforted beside him.
Ah Rong wiped away his tears, and hummed, "Sister, let's go to the Temple of Medicine to pay our respects!"
The two stepped up the basket and were about to leave. Seeing this, Zhou Jin quickly got up and said, "Aunts, can I let you go together?"
The two stopped and looked at him suspiciously.
"Aunt Qing, this son also came to the Medical Shrine to pray, so you can lead him the way."
"So I'm also a believer of the God of Medicine, so let's come together!" Aunt Qing readily agreed.
The three left the tea shop.On the way, Aunt Qing and the others wrapped cloth scarves around their heads to shield them from the sun. Zhou Jin followed them ten meters away. After all, this is ancient times. If you walk too close, it is inevitable that someone will gossip, so it is better to be cautious!
On the way, I met some men and women who came to the Medical Shrine to worship. They all carried baskets and looked curiously at Zhou Jin, who was empty-handed.Zhou Jin realized that the things in these baskets should be used by them to worship the God of Medicine. No wonder Aunt Qing and the others were a little surprised when Zhou Jin proposed to go with them just now!
But this shrine of medicine is really shabby, you have to bring your own incense candles!
After walking for about ten minutes, a small temple appeared in front of it. The outer wall was made of red mud, and it was a square room.The front of the door is very clean. There is a tall and long incense burner directly in front of the door, and there are many unburned incense candles left by customers who came to offer incense in the morning.
As soon as Zhou Jin approached, he felt that it was hotter than outside, and even the air seemed to be distorted by the steam.
The accompanying people opened the basket one after another, took out the incense candles inside, lit them and inserted them into the incense burner.Suddenly it was smoky and hot.They clasped their hands together, slightly closed their eyes, and opened and closed their mouths, obviously praying.
Zhou Jin walked to the door. The room was very bright. Although it was simple, it was cleaned extremely clean. It was obvious that someone was maintaining it carefully.A tall stone statue in the middle is almost touching the roof.The body of the stone statue is painted with a piece of blue, its face is red and white, and the facial features can be vaguely seen.He held an osmanthus flower in his left hand and a golden needle in his right hand, looking down at all the living beings outside.
Zhou Jin: ...
Could this be him?
Zhou Jin looked at the tall red, green and green stone statues as if the paint had been knocked over, and he really had mixed feelings in his heart.
This turned out to be his stone statue!The weird facial features and colorful paints have nothing in common with him.But with the sweet-scented osmanthus and golden needles in his hands, even if Zhou Jin didn't want to admit it, he had to accept this fact!
"What are you doing here?"
A person suddenly appeared behind the stone statue, startling Zhou Jin!He followed the prestige and was startled, this is not the village chief!
Zhou Jin quickly lowered his head, afraid of being recognized, "I came here to pray."
"Pray and go outside to burn incense. Don't come here casually. The God of Medicine is happy!" the village chief said in a calm voice, and at this time he was quite cold.
Zhou Jin nodded hurriedly, turned and exited the room.
"Tongtong, have you seen it? It's really my stone statue!" Zhou Jin exclaimed in his head, this is too weird!
"Yes, host, I saw it too. These people really respect you, and even built a shrine for you!" No. 01 was extremely guilty, "Since it has been confirmed that there is no **** organization, let's go back soon ! Nothing to see here!"
"Don't you think it's weird? It is supposed to be just a shrine, why do so many people come to offer incense? And they say categorically that it will be effective? I'm not a real god!"
"Uh, this..."
Zhou Jin frowned, "Tongtong, why do I think you're a little weird today? You're usually the one who likes to watch the excitement the most, why are you so determined to leave today?" Zhou Jin finally sensed something was wrong.
"I didn't! I just...I just feel too hot! Yes, it's too hot! The temperature is so high that it's killing me!" No. 01 kept denying that there was no silver 300 taels here. .
Zhou Jin narrowed his eyes, feeling more and more suspicious.
"You didn't bring any joss sticks, did you? Hey, here you are!" A thin incense stick was suddenly held up in front of Zhou Jin. He looked up and saw Sister-in-law Qing's face was covered with sweat, her eyes were smiling, "Take it, and pray hard." I hope that the God of Medicine will definitely bless you when he hears your wish!"
Zhou Jin took Xixiang in a daze, and stood there without moving.
"What are you doing in a daze? Hurry up and offer incense, young people are just stupid!"
Only then was Zhou Jin pushed forward, and he lit the fine incense and inserted it into the stove full of incense ash.Across the lingering fireworks at the door, the tall statues in the house give people a sense of mystery.
In the clear sky, Zhou Jin couldn't help shaking.This feeling is really weird, probably there is no second person in this world who can burn incense on his own stone statue.
In such a short time, more and more people came to the gate, almost all of them were people from the nearby villages. They spread the word to ten, ten to hundreds. I believe that it will not be long before everyone knows this small temple. !
As long as Zhou Jin thinks of the scene he will face in the future, his hair stands on end.In order to prevent everyone from paying attention to him, he hid in a shady corner on one side, watching a steady stream of people come to offer incense, and the smoke almost enveloped this small world.
"All, tell me the truth, what have you done?"
"I really didn't, host, don't wrong me..."
Zhou Jin's face darkened in an instant, "Tongtong, you still haven't told the truth at this time! This matter is very serious, I hope you don't hide it from me! We are dependent on each other, and if something happens to me, you can't escape! "
Seeing that Zhou Jin was really angry on the 01st, he paused for a moment, and finally whispered: "I'm sorry host, I actually already knew about this..."
really!
Zhou Jin looked at the pious people in front of him hidden behind the smog, and he felt worried. He asked in a cold voice, "So what did you do here?"
"I, I didn't do anything, I just gave them some energy..." No. 01 panicked.
"What are you doing?" Zhou Jin laughed angrily. No wonder these people are so crazy. They have boundless mana, supernatural powers, and multiple roles. It turns out that they are all caused by the system!It's ridiculous that he still said that he wanted to find out the mastermind behind the scenes, but the mastermind was by his side!
"Host, don't be angry, I didn't mean it..." No. 01 sensed Zhou Jin's anger, and felt terrified in his heart.
"Then why did you do this? Do you know that if this incident becomes serious, how can we practice medicine in the clinic in the future!"
"I'm sorry, Ah Jin, I just want energy too much! These believers and their admiration for you will be transformed into energy, and I discovered it by accident. I just helped the people who came to pray that day, and then I felt it. The increase in energy. The more people come to pray, the more energy I will have. I'm sorry, Jin, I didn't expect things to turn out like this..."
"I treat diseases and save people every day, and I never stop collecting energy. Why are you in such a hurry?" Zhou Jin felt a sense of powerlessness in his heart.
"Host, I want to become a human. I don't want to stay in your spiritual domain all the time. I'm almost there..."
Zhou Jin was taken aback, "Become a human?"
No. 01 was silent for a while, and finally revealed his true identity.
The shady corner here and the smog outside seemed to be two worlds. Cicada's mournful cry echoed in his ears, and the bright white sunlight hit the ground, as if distorting the ground.
Zhou Jin was taken aback when he heard that, so No. 01 is that scientist Lom?Is this some fantasy novel?People have turned into systems, and now they want to change from systems to people!
Zhou Jin couldn't help wondering if he really came from the interstellar era?Are you sure it's not from some world of cultivating immortals?
But it makes sense if this is the case, no wonder Zhou Jin always feels that the system sometimes doesn't look like a data, and the emotions are too full!
They have been together for so long and have been supporting each other until now. It can be said that they have regarded each other as their closest people!Knowing what happened to him, Zhou Jin was also very distressed.At the same time, there is a bit of sympathy.
Zhou Jin sighed inwardly, thinking that the system was originally a proud and promising scientist, but because of an accident, it merged with the system he created, and became a strange creature that is not like a person, and its data is not like data!No wonder he was so obsessed with becoming a human!
"How much energy do you have now?" The system can turn into a human, of course he is also happy for him.
No. 01 whispered: "If the current progress is made, it will probably be ready in a few days..." Seeing Zhou Jin's frown, he quickly said: "But host, don't worry, I will Although I still have the memory of being Rom, I am no longer a human being. Even if I can transform into a human form, I am still just a system! We are already bound, and I will not leave you..."
