"Next," Wang Yao said.
"Doctor, my body is weak, and I sweat easily. I can't sleep well at night."
When people heard this illness, they would usually think that the patient was in his 50s or 60s. However, the person sitting in front of Wang Yao was a man who was at most 30 years old.
His hair was yellow, his face was pale, and his eyes were dim. His breathing was short, and his breath was turbid. He had a strong body odor.
"How old are you?" Wang Yao asked.
"25," the man said.
"Are you married?"
"No, I don't even have a girlfriend," the man said.
He was nearly 1.8 meters tall, but his voice was like a mosquito's buzzing. He had no confidence.
Wang Yao was a little surprised.
His condition was a classic case of kidney essence deficiency and excessive indulgence.
The kidney was the foundation of the congenital body. The human body had Yin, Yang, and Five Elements. From Yin and Yang, the kidney controlled Yin. From the Five Elements, the kidney controlled water. If the kidney Yin was insufficient, it would cause dizziness and tinnitus.
"Do you have a special hobby?"
"Ah?" The man was stunned.
"Hobby?" In an instant, he seemed to understand what Wang Yao was referring to. His pale face turned red.
"Am I right?"
"Yes."
Well, the root of the problem had been found.
"Is this the cause of my illness?" The young man had doubts.
"Yes," Wang Yao said.
"I know it's not good, but I can't help it," the man said.
"Can't help it?" Wang Yao thought for a moment.
"That's easy!"
He reached out and poked the man's lower abdomen a few times.
"Come back in a week."
"Ah, that's good."
"Okay."
"Thank you, Doctor." The young man was quite polite. He got up and left. However, Wang Yao could see that he still didn't believe him.
"This method will definitely work," Wang Yao said with a smile.
"Will it work?" Since the first time he tried it after watching a movie a few years ago, he had been addicted to it and couldn't extricate himself. This situation was like taking drugs. It was addictive. It required perseverance and determination to quit.
It was also from then on that he gradually felt that his body was getting worse and worse, and his temper was also getting worse. He lost his temper easily and was unable to calm down no matter what he did. He had no confidence in himself.
"Next." After leaving the clinic, Wang Yao continued to see patients.
"Doctor, I've been having a stomachache lately," the man in his forties said.
"Which one? How does it hurt?"
"Here, it's like being pricked by a needle." He pointed at his abdomen.
"Open your mouth, stick out your tongue, ah."
Ah!
The man opened his mouth and a scorching hot smell rushed out.
"Do you occasionally feel a burning pain in your chest, like you're on fire?"
"Ah, yes."
"It's a stomach ulcer, and it's quite serious. Have you been to a regular hospital?"
"No, it didn't hurt much at first, so I didn't take it seriously," the man said. "Recently, it's been very painful. Last time, my father had a headache in your clinic. After taking a few doses of medicine, he came to see you."
"Drinking and smoking, right?" Wang Yao said.
There was a faint smell of alcohol in his mouth, and there were cigarette stains on his teeth.
"Yes."
"Quit both," Wang Yao said.
"Ah?"
"What? Your life is more important."
"I'll prescribe you a medicine first. Try it."
Wang Yao got up and went to the medicine box to prepare the medicine.
Astragalus root, cassia branch, white peony, forsythia forsythia, dandelion, coptis root, angelica dahurica, radix sinensis, viola indigotica, and licorice.
It could clear away heat and detoxify, remove blood stasis, and regenerate new blood. It was mainly used to treat gastrointestinal ulcers.
"I've written down the decoction method. Take it according to the prescription," Wang Yao said after giving him the medicine. "Remember, no smoking, drinking, spicy, and fresh food."
"Ah, OK, thank you."
After paying the bill, he took his leave.
The next patient was from the same village. He was about the same age as Wang Yao and had a headache.
"You have a cold. You don't need to take medicine. Go back and drink more water. Cook a bowl of ginger soup at night and sleep. You'll be fine."
"Okay."
By the time he finished seeing these patients, it was already dark.
Wang Yao organized the patients' conditions and recorded them down. He then got up and went home.
At night, he went up Nanshan Hill. San Xian came down from the hill and wagged his tail happily.
"San Xian, you've gained weight again!"
It was very quiet on the hill. Only the sound of the wind could be heard.
When Wang Yao went into the herbal field, a snake jumped out.
"Hello, Xiaohei."
In the cottage on the hill, there was a light.
There was a map on Wang Yao's desk. It was a map of Nanshan Hill.
He wanted to arrange something outside the Spirit Gathering Battle Array. It connected the east and west mountains and even farther places.
He needed trees and rocks.
There was only one way to go up the hill.
It was not until late at night that the lights on the hill went out.
The next day, the weather was gloomy. It was drizzling. Wang Yao held an umbrella and went down the hill. The breath around his body blocked the wind and rain.
Huh?
After going down the hill, he saw a familiar car.
"It actually came in this weather?"
It was Professor Lu who drove the car.
"Hello, Dr. Wang."
He looked very tired.
"Hello, come in." Wang Yao invited him into the room and made him a cup of tea.
"You have to take care of your body. Overwork will make you sick!"
"Ah, I discussed with Xiaowan's family and wanted to come here for treatment."
"You can come, but I can't promise anything." If it was at the very beginning, Wang Yao could have some confidence to reverse her seriously damaged kidney through treatment. But now, the broken boat was still full of holes. How could he repair it?
"I know." Professor Lu sighed.
After drinking a cup of tea, he felt that a lot of his fatigue had been driven away.
"Sorry to disturb you."
"Find a place and have a good sleep," Wang Yao said with a smile.
"Oh, OK."
After sitting in the clinic for a while, he saw someone coming and left.
"Why are you free today? Don't you accompany Ms. Han?" It was Wang Mingbao.
"Ah, don't mention it," Wang Mingbao said. "She wants to go back to Jia County. She said she wants to see the children. I'm going to go with her."
"Is she not used to living here?"
"No, I think she has nothing to do. Ah, buddy, I'm here to ask you for help." Wang Mingbao's expression was solemn.
"What's the matter?"
"Can you find a way to make her pregnant quickly?"
"What?" Wang Yao was stunned.
"If she is pregnant and gives birth, she will have something to do. Besides, my parents also want to hold grandchildren. A granddaughter is fine too."
"Ah!" Wang Yao rubbed his forehead.
"This is the first time I've heard of this."
"Aren't your medical skills very good?"
"I've never tried this!" Wang Yao said bluntly. "Having a child is not a matter of one person!"
"I don't care. You find a way for me."
"OK, you can find time to bring Ms. Han here again. By the way, if you want to have a child, you have to quit smoking and drinking first," Wang Yao said.
"OK, no problem."
It was still raining outside. It was spring rain, but it was not annoying.
"Let's have lunch together."
"OK, let's go to my house. I'll tell my mother."
"OK."
At noon, Wang Mingbao went to Wang Yao's house for a meal. After sitting for a while, he left.
"Mingbao, what's the matter?"
"Yes, I want to have a child."
"What?" Zhang Xiuying was stunned. "You see, he's planning to have a child."
"Ah, I said too much again!" Wang Yao immediately realized.
Fortunately, his mother did not say anything more.
In the afternoon, the rain showed no signs of stopping. The sky was still gloomy.
Thousands of miles away in Dali, the Han family …
"Brother, tomorrow is the seventh day."
"Is everything ready?"
"Yes."
Ling, who was lying in the hospital bed, had woken up, but he was still unable to speak.
"Ling, I'll take you on a long journey tomorrow. You may be tired." They were still quite a distance from the place where Wu San, the King Pharmacist, was. It would take a few hours to drive there. Moreover, the last part of the journey was a dirt road. It was very bumpy and difficult to walk. Ordinary people would feel uncomfortable because of the bumpy road, let alone a seriously ill person.
"I've found a caravan."
"OK."
In the jungle of southern Yunnan, in a village, in a bamboo house …
The King Pharmacist, who was in his 70s, was staring at the medicine in a daze.
For six days, he had been using all the methods he could think of to analyze the composition of the three medicines, but without exception, all of them failed.
"How could this be?"
