Chapter 18: The Doctor
Zhou Fan continued to practice the four awakening postures of the Tiger Twelve Forms, but he did not rashly inhale the vitality, but dismantled and practiced in one style.
This one-style dismantling exercise is designed to better mobilize the muscles of the body and help to speed up the rate at which the muscles absorb vitality.
The effect of one time is not obvious, but as long as you are diligent and diligent, the number of times will have a great effect.
Just as Zhou Fan was concentrating on practicing in the backyard, he heard a shout from the front door: "Is anyone home?"
Zhou Fan, who was practicing 'Tiger Bullet Legs', heard the shout, he turned over and patted the dust on his body straight, and then shouted outside: "Yes, who is it?"
As he spoke, Zhou Fan had already walked from the back of the house to the front of the house, and he saw a middle-aged man of medium stature standing in front of the door.
The middle-aged man was wearing a black robe, with a mahogany box hanging diagonally on his right body, a slightly round face, and a long beard on his chin, and the whole person looked very elegant.
The man's complexion was very good, and he showed a gentle smile to Zhou Fan with a red face.
Zhou Fan looked at the stranger and said, "My father and mother are not at home, if you want to find them, you have to come over at night." ”
The middle-aged man shook his head and said, "You misunderstood, I didn't come to find Yimu them, but to you." ”
"Me?" Zhou Fan was slightly stunned and said, he had no memory of his predecessor, so he naturally couldn't recognize this person, he was the same age as his parents, and he thought he was a friend of his parents, but who knew that he was coming to him, which made Zhou Fan a little surprised.
"I know you've forgotten what happened before, so I'll reintroduce you, my name is Zhang He, and I'm the village doctor. Zhang He said with a faint smile on his face.
Zhou Fan frowned slightly, and quickly stretched out: "It turned out to be Dr. Zhang, I'm really embarrassed, please sit inside." ”
Zhou Fan invited Zhang He into the hall of the house and sat down, and poured him a glass of water.
Zhang He took the cup and thanked him, then put the cup on the table and said with a smile: "I came this time to check on you, you woke up a few days ago, but I have been busy with other patients, so I didn't come to see you, and I rarely came over today when I had time." ”
"Then thank you Dr. Zhang in advance. Zhou Fan said politely.
"You're welcome, that's what I'm supposed to do. Zhang He smiled and stroked the long beard under his chin, "You turn around first, I'll see what happens to the scar on your head?"
Zhou Fan nodded in agreement, turned his back to Zhang He, and turned his back to Zhang He, Zhou Fan's face became solemn, and his hands on his thighs on both sides had been slightly folded and clenched into fists.
"Well, it's really good to recover. Zhang He's laughter came from behind Zhou Fan, and he watched as he gently touched the scar on the back of Zhou Fan's head with his fingers.
"Doctor Zhang, what's wrong with my injury?" Zhou Fan asked tentatively.
"Hey, didn't your father tell you?" Zhang He said in surprise.
"No, I've just been waking up for a few days, and I've had such a big deal as bundling my hair, and you know, I'm unlucky that I don't have a long lifespan, and I have to make some preparations to join the patrol, so I haven't had time to ask them. Zhou Fan said with a little silly smile.
"I see, you fell and injured yourself. Zhang He let go of the finger that was placed on the back of Zhou Fan's head, "You can turn around." ”
Zhang He's answer was exactly the same as Zhou Yimu's, but Zhou Fan had already been mentally prepared, this may have been discussed between Zhang He and Zhou Yimu.
Zhou Fan turned around, and said with a puzzled look on his face: "It turned out that he was injured by a fall, was it serious at that time?"
"Quite serious. The smile on Zhang He's face was slightly retracted and said: "At that time, you fell and the back of your head was full of blood, but fortunately, your father came to me, and I arrived in time to heal you, so I rescued you." ”
"Then why did I fall and get injured for no reason?" Zhou Fan continued to ask.
"Well...... Zhang He groaned and shook his head: "I don't know, your father probably doesn't know, when I found you, you were already on the ground unconscious." ”
Speaking of this, Zhang He patted Zhou Fan's shoulder with a smile and said: "Young man, don't think too much, you fell on your head, if you think too much, your brain may hurt, no matter how you fell and injured yourself, it's okay now, that's good, stretch out your hand, I'll take your pulse for you." ”
"Doctor Zhang, I listen to you. Zhou Fan showed a young man's innocent smile on his face, "Which hand?"
"Check the pulse, look at both hands. Zhang He said, "Let's look at the right hand first." ”
Zhou Fan stretched out his right hand and asked Zhang He to take the pulse, and when Zhang He finished diagnosing the pulse of his right hand, Zhou Fan changed his left hand to show him.
"Doctor Zhang, how is my body?" After reading the left and right hands, Zhou Fan looked at the silent Zhang He and asked with concern.
Zhang He was silent for a moment and said with a smile: "It's no big deal, your pulse is one breath and four solstice, not floating or sinking, not big or small, the rhythm is even, calm and slow, fluent and powerful, it belongs to the normal pulse." ”
"That's good. Zhou Fan said with a smile.
After taking Zhou Fan's pulse, Zhang He said that he still had something to do, stood up and said goodbye, and Zhou Fan hurriedly sent people to the door.
When he was sent to the door, Zhou Fan took out the five copper coins left by his parents from his body and said, "Doctor Zhang, it's a small meaning, it's not a tribute." ”
"Don't. Zhang He refused, "I have already taken your family's consultation fee before, and I came to revisit you this time, and I can't ask for this money." ”
Zhang He didn't accept it, so Zhou Fan didn't push the copper coin around like an adult, but directly put it in his pocket again, and said, "That doctor Zhang walks slowly." ”
Zhang He's footsteps didn't move, he stroked his beard and looked at Zhou Fan, and once again showed that gentle smile on his face: "Afan, your personality was not as cheerful as it is now, and it seems that this injury may not be without benefits." ”
"Really?" Zhou Fan smiled while touching the back of his neck with his right hand, seemingly a little shy.
"Rest well, and if you feel unwell, remember to come to me. Zhang He didn't answer, but said another word of advice and turned to leave.
Zhou Fan looked at Zhang He's back, and it wasn't until Zhang He turned from a yellow mud house and disappeared that Zhou Fan retracted his gaze, and there was no smile on his face anymore.
Zhou Fan closed the wooden door with both hands, the light was cut off by the door, and the whole person disappeared into the darkness, only a faint light penetrated through the gap and fell in the middle of his face, as if to cut his face in half.
Looking at this ray of light, Zhang He's gentle smile came to mind again, but this smile made Zhou Fan feel a little chill in his heart.
In his previous life, Zhou Fan, who was a criminal policeman, had seen a similar smile, and a serial murderer had such a smile on his face.
