No one could bear to disturb such a situation.
"Oh, it's so quiet!" The man lay on the bed weakly and looked at the moonlight outside.
"Tsk, tsk, tsk. Such a scenery, I really want to sing a song!"
He opened his mouth and then closed it again.
"What? I forgot. In my current state, it's naturally impossible for me to do such a thing."
"Ah, when will these days come to an end?"
The sun rose as usual the next day.
It was the end of the second of the three hottest days. It was the hottest time.
"It's really hot today!" People in the mountain village basically didn't go out on such a hot day. They all stayed at home or under the shade of a big tree outside the village.
Thousands of miles away in southern Yunnan, there was a remote mountain village.
There were dirt roads and bamboo buildings. It was a shabby village no matter how one looked at it.
It was hard to believe that there were many cars parked outside the mountain village. There were all kinds of cars, including luxury cars worth millions.
"Is this the place?" A foreign car stopped outside the village.
"It's really remote and hard to find, but there are quite a lot of cars outside!"
The middle-aged man got out of the car and went into the mountain village. He found an old woman in the village and asked her about the King Pharmacist. After asking, he found out that the King Pharmacist had quite a lot of rules. The cars outside were all waiting to see the King Pharmacist. Some people had even waited for a month.
The most important thing was that the King Pharmacist didn't see patients when he was in a bad mood. He also didn't see people he didn't like.
"What kind of rules are these? It's a headache just listening to them! "
"Ah."
The key problem was that the King Pharmacist rarely made house calls unless he was given rare medicine or poison. It couldn't be Western medicine.
He knew that with the temper of the person behind him, she would definitely be furious if she came here. It was impossible for her to swallow her anger and look at other people's faces. If that happened, the "King of Medicine" would most likely not treat that young master.
"Ask him to make a house call?"
This was not an easy task. Before he came, he had asked around. This "King Pharmacist" had been famous in the southwestern provinces for decades. Over the years, he had seen all kinds of medicines. What kind of medicine could satisfy him?!
Both of these were difficult to deal with.
He scratched his head.
"How am I supposed to report back?!"
"Wait, how many disciples does he have? Can we start with them?"
As soon as he said he would do it, he began to inquire about the disciples of this "King of Medicine". He did have two disciples outside, and it was said that they had learned less than 30% of his skills. However, he was definitely a famous doctor in the outside world. There were so many people who came to see him every day. However, this doctor obviously didn't have as many rules as his master. He only treated patients based on who came first. Moreover, he also heard that as long as the situation was suitable, he would also make house calls.
"That's great!"
He first queued up, and it took him an entire morning before it was his turn.
"Where are you feeling unwell?" This was a man in his forties. He was slightly plump.
"It's not that I'm not feeling well. I'm here to seek medical treatment for someone else."
"Give it to someone else?" The doctor was stunned.
"Oh, this is the medical record I brought. Please take a look at it." He took out the medical record he had prepared in advance.
"Hiss!" The man looked at it carefully and then frowned.
"Where is the patient?"
"In the capital, I came from the capital."
"The capital?" The disciple of the "King of Medicine" was stunned.
The capital was in the north, which was almost the southernmost part of the motherland. The best resources in the country were concentrated in the capital, including medical facilities and personnel. They basically didn't come from the capital for treatment, but some people went back to the capital for treatment.
"I'm sorry, I don't have a good solution just by looking at your medical record," the man said.
"Is it convenient for you to make a house call?"
"I make a house call once a month. I've already made a house call this month. I'm sorry."
"What about next month?"
"I've already made an appointment for next month."
Ah? The man was stunned. It turned out that there were rules here, but it was not as strange as his master's.
"Can't you make an exception?"
The disciple of the "King of Medicine" shook his head with a smile.
This is troublesome. I can't go to another disciple of the "King of Medicine". I heard that guy often comes and goes to a fixed place.
He didn't rush to leave. Instead, he decided to wait and see if he could discuss it. It wasn't until 9 p.m. that the disciple of the "King of Medicine" closed the door and prepared to go home. As soon as he came out, he met the person waiting outside.
"Hello, Dr. Wu."
"It's you. Why haven't you left yet?" Dr. Wu was a little surprised to see him.
"Dr. Wu, you haven't eaten yet, right? How about I treat you to a meal?"
"No, you don't have to. Just tell me what you want," Dr. Wu said.
"It's like this. You see, it's not easy for me to come all the way here from Beijing. Can you make an exception? If you have any requests, just tell me. I'll try my best to satisfy you. I can pay three times the consultation fee," the man said in a negotiating tone.
"Ha-ha, it's not a matter of money," Dr. Wu said.
"Five times." The man decisively raised the price.
Dr. Wu looked at the man in front of him and didn't speak for a long time.
"Ten times." He raised the price again.
"Do you know how much I charge for a house call?" Dr. Wu asked with a smile.
"How much?"
"50,000." The man stretched out his hand.
"I'll pay 500,000."
Doctor Wu laughed after hearing that.
"Deal."
"That's right!" The man clapped his hands.
"When are you free?"
"The day after tomorrow."
"Okay, I'll arrange the itinerary right away." The man was very happy. At the same time, he paid a certain amount of consultation fee in advance.
"Ah, this disciple is easy to talk to. Fortunately, he can be settled with money."
Such a high consultation fee sounded a little shocking, but for people like him, it was acceptable. The next day, he told Mrs. Li about the matter in Beijing.
"Well, I can't invite my master. Let me have a look first," the woman said.
"I hope it will be useful."
In the mountain village, four patients came to the clinic in the morning. Three of them were from the village. They all had diarrhea, and it was very serious.
"Ouch, the stomachache is terrible. I can't stop the diarrhea!"
"You ate something wrong and hurt your stomach." Wang Yao directly inserted needles into several acupoints on the patient's abdomen. He then prescribed two doses of medicine.
"Don't eat raw, cold, and spicy food. Give it once a day and night. You'll be fine after drinking it for two days."
"Ah, thank you, Yao," the patient said.
As for the second patient, Wang Yao didn't want to see him. He was a well-known drunkard in the village. He would rather not eat than drink. It was not the first time he had come to Wang Yao's clinic because he felt unwell after drinking.
"Yao, please take a look at me. My stomachache is terrible. I have diarrhea no matter what I eat. I didn't drink anything. I really didn't drink."
When he spoke, there was a very strong sour smell.
"Uncle, I'll prescribe you a few more doses of medicine. It's still the same requirements as last time. You absolutely can't touch cigarettes or alcohol. If you still can't change this habit, don't come again next time." The man was from the same village, so he didn't want to lose face.
"OK, OK." The man paid the money and left.
The third person was in his 30s. His face was sallow, and he couldn't walk steadily.
"Ouch, I also have a stomachache."
"Show me your tongue."
Ah! The man opened his mouth and stuck out his tongue.
"What a strong heat. What a strong humidity."
Summer was a season that was easy to get heaty, but it was also a good time to get rid of the humidity in the body. Spring, summer, autumn, and winter were the four seasons of the year. Each had its own advantages.
"You need to recuperate."
"Ah, no, it's just diarrhea. You can just prescribe me an anti-diarrhea medicine. Why do you need to recuperate?"
"Since you know it so well, why do you still come to me?"
"No …" The man was stunned.
"I don't mean that. Tell me, how do you want to recuperate?"
"You need to get rid of the heat first and then get rid of the humidity. The two doses of medicine have to be taken in two stages separately," Wang Yao said.
"How long will it take?"
"Within 10 days," Wang Yao said.
"Ah, well, OK."
