The Demon-Slaying Grandmaster

Chapter 7 Advertise it widely

Rather than letting Qin Keqing enter Ningguo Mansion and be harmed by Jia Zhen, the eunuch, it would be better for her to benefit.

Anyway, Zhenwu Temple belongs to the Zhengyi sect. Not only does it not prohibit marriage, it also encourages people to travel and experience the world.

Getting married can naturally be considered a form of cultivation in the world.

Moreover, Zhang Tianshi, who has been passed down from generation to generation and is known as the Zhang in the South and the Kong in the North, can marry a wife and take concubines, so why can't I?
Li Jingxiao immediately decided to find an opportunity to get to know the family and then figure out how to contact Qin Keqing's adoptive father Qin Ye.

After I got up, two maids heard the noise and came in with warm water, toiletries, and a set of gray Taoist robes that looked quite expensive.

Speaking of which, after the Yuan Dynasty, most scholars wore Taoist robes as casual clothes.

First of all, it is convenient. Except for the Taoist robes worn during sacrifices, the clothes that Taoists usually wear are indeed simple and convenient.

Secondly, after reading a lot, I became interested in either Taoism or Buddhism.

After some study, many people began to wear Taoist robes.

Li Jingxiao was not polite and changed into a new Taoist robe and washed up.

Standing under the eaves outside the guest room, he began to practice boxing.

After his proficiency in the Mian Zhang technique increased by 5 points, he stopped.

The soft sword at the waist should not be shown to others easily, and chasing stars and the moon is even more forbidden here.

I just went to have breakfast and then went to Jia Zhu's yard.

Because a servant came running over to tell him, as soon as he entered the yard, he saw Jia Zhu waiting outside the reception room.

The guy looked much more energetic now, but he had been sick for too long, so his hair, skin and sunken cheeks could not recover quickly.

After some pleasantries and taking the patient's pulse, Li Jingxiao finally felt relieved.

He smiled and said, "In a few days, I will come to your house to check your pulse.

Now, it’s three points better than yesterday.

Three more doses of wind-cold-repelling decoctions should be enough."

Jia Zhu and Li Wan behind the screen were overjoyed after hearing this.

When Li Jingxiao left Rongguo Mansion, Jia Mu, Jia She, Jia Zheng, Jia Zhen, and even the second-generation Jia Dairu went out to see him off.

This shows how much the Jia family values ​​Li Jingxiao, the miracle doctor.

Jia Lian still held Li Jingxiao's hand and quietly handed him a silver note of 500 taels.

And he said it very bluntly in public, saying that if you have any problems in the future, you can come to him.

What Li Jingxiao wanted was actually this sentence.

When they returned to Zhenwu Temple, the servants of the Jia family also came back with Lai Er, the chief steward of the Rongguo Mansion, bringing back five carts of thank-you gifts.

The patients who had been waiting outside the Taoist temple early were amazed to see Lai Er directing a dozen servants from the Jia family to continuously unload various gifts from the car.

Li Jingxiao was secretly happy. He just wanted people to know that he not only saved the eldest grandson of the Jia family, but also received generous rewards from the Jia family.

The social status of the miracle doctors in ancient times was not as high as that of officials, but no matter which dynasty, they were always guests of honor among the powerful and wealthy.

Li Jingxiao estimated that the food, clothing and other expenses for these five carts would cost at least one or two thousand taels of silver.

The best paddy fields outside the capital city only cost about ten to twenty taels per mu, depending on the distance from the capital.

Now, Li Jingxiao no longer has to worry about food and clothing.

If Li Jingxiao had not refused, Jia Zheng, Jia Zhen and Jia She would have wanted to pay monthly salaries to Zhenwu Temple.

All I ask for is that if anyone in the Jia family falls ill in the future, they can receive treatment as soon as possible.

Moreover, Lady Jia is not young anymore, and the Jia family is even more worried about her health.

This morning when I asked Li Jingxiao to see her, he said, "I don't even need to feel the old lady's pulse. Just a few glances and I know she is in good health.

There is no problem at all for living to 80."

If this were said in modern times, people might not be happy.

But in this world, 80 years old is really an old age.

Li Jingxiao remembered that the Jia family was raided after Jia Mu celebrated her 80th birthday. Of course, before that, the family had been on a downward spiral.

After all, the downfall of a family is first of all because its own children have no ambition and ability, and have no power, which then affects the family finances.

Moreover, the financial crisis is actually more harmful, otherwise the Jia family might have been able to continue to exist for another ten or twenty years.

After all, only those with money can use connections, so they wouldn't ignore even their old relatives and friends and pay attention to the Jia family.

But no one pays attention to you, and all the evil spirits come out to cause trouble for you.

Having money can also make the eunuchs satisfied, so that there will be no one who can speak well of the emperor.

This can be seen from the fact that Jia Lan finally studied, took the imperial examination, became an official, and even earned an imperial edict for his mother Li Wan.

The emperor did have the intention to suppress the Jia family, but the Jia family neither rebelled nor conspired to rebel, so he probably had no intention of completely destroying the Jia family.

After all, he was a founding hero, and the fact that Jia Lan was able to pass the imperial examination already said a lot.
-
After entering Zhenwu Temple, Li Jingxiao quickly began to see patients.

After curing a patient, the character level will increase by 1 experience point.

Another 150 or so will bring you to level 3.

To increase the speed of cultivating internal strength by another 10%, you must of course put in the effort.

After seeing 17 patients, Li Jingxiao planned to close the door and continue practicing, but as soon as he reached the door, he saw seven or eight people of all ages.

They were carrying the rascal who had sprained his ankle yesterday and shouting as they gathered outside the Taoist temple.

The other four ruffians didn't see anyone.

As soon as Li Jingxiao's eyes met that ruffian's, the man immediately dared not look him in the eye.

Seeing this, Li Jingxiao sneered in his heart.

I interrogated those five people for almost an hour yesterday and confirmed that the mastermind behind them was a famous doctor.

I was actually already on guard in my heart.

Seeing an old woman sitting on the ground, crying and shouting about her son being beaten, Li Jingxiao was not afraid, but smiled.
Pull out a long stick from behind the door.

He stood at the gate carelessly, and when he raised his long stick, the water-polished marble steps shook a few times.

The frightened seven or eight people and the neighbors and passers-by who were watching the excitement were trembling in their hearts.

Then he said in a loud voice, "A few rogues coveted the prescriptions from my Zhenwu Temple. Since you failed to rob them, I have spared your lives.

Now you are accusing me again. I want to see whether the prefect will believe me or you, the poor fellow, when we go to court."

The group of people who were making trouble suddenly quieted down.

Unfortunately, Lai Er and the Jia family servants had already returned to the Jia family an hour ago.

Otherwise, this group of people would have no chance to cause trouble.

The neighbors and onlookers around were no longer happy after hearing what Li Jingxiao had just said.

I didn't support Li Jingxiao right away because I wanted to see how the situation develops.

After all, everything must be done with reason.

Now I heard that the scoundrel lying on the door panel first robbed the Taoist temple of its prescriptions.

Needless to say, he must have had ulterior motives when he blocked Li Jingxiao outside the city when he went out to collect herbs.

Now he comes to cause trouble and frame Li Jingxiao.

If we don’t help you now, how will those who have seen you have the face to come to us for treatment again in the future?

Besides, since Li Jingxiao dared to go to the government, he must have the confidence.

Then he remembered that Lai Er had brought people here to give gifts before, but he had mentioned that Li Jingxiao had cured the grandson of the Rongguo Mansion.

Zhenwu Temple is located in the west of the capital, where there are many powerful and influential people.

When faced with ruffians and scoundrels, the servants in these powerful families become even more arrogant.

Suddenly someone started cursing.
