Chapter 210

Shi Xiaozi wants to find a doctor to see a doctor. Everyone in the inn knows about this, so he is told not to waste his efforts. If he has that little money, he might as well use it to marry a sweetheart. When his father gets old, he will He will take care of this inn. He is kind-hearted and treats the waiters at the inn well, and everyone dotes on him.

Some people were worried that he had been deceived, and when they heard that he was coming to see Xu Yi for medical treatment, they wanted to stop him.

"The doctor looks young. He is not older than your father. How can he treat patients well?" The old woman was wearing a knee-length gown and a low-color waistband. She is not very old, just over thirty-five. She has not done any maintenance and has sunburn spots on her face. People who see her on weekdays call her "Ms. Gui".

Mrs. Gui had been working as a washer in the inn when she beat him when he was still a baby. As for the bruise on his head and the blood bruises, it was clear to everyone.

"The doctor said back then that your blood stasis had cleared up long ago, otherwise how could you have lived to this age."

Shi Xiaozi scratched his cheek and said, "Last time, the doctor who set up the stall said that I had blood stasis in my brain. Blood."

"Then why doesn't he treat you?" Mrs. Gui retorted with a cold smile.

Shi Xiaozi stopped talking, feeling that no matter how much he talked, Mrs. Gui would not understand him.

He has a secret that no one knows. He likes Miss Ji, the flower seller next door. Miss Ji is slender and frivolous, with pink cheeks, like a fairy from heaven.

She is so good-looking, but I really don't deserve her. It would be great if he were taller.

Besides, he is already fifteen years old, and his father said he wants to marry him, who is his cousin from the country. His cousin is two years younger than him, so he doesn't want to marry his cousin.

Shi Xiaozi glanced at the clay pot where the coins were hidden, and without hesitation, took out the copper coins inside.

...

At this time, he was sitting in Xu Yi's room uneasily.

The room was lit, and soon after he sat down, he saw Doctor Xu's maid bringing over two plates of fruit.

All I saw was a plate of autumn pears and a plate of green dates. The green dates still had bright green leaves. They were each as big as a chicken and looked expensive.

The fruit is placed on an elegant white porcelain plate with lifelike orchids painted on it, which is very beautiful.

He couldn't help but be surprised. He had only seen such beautiful porcelain plates in the best restaurants in the city.

"Here, you eat a green date." Ah Jin stuffed two dates into his hand and said with a smile, "I bought them from the fruit shop this morning. They are very sweet."

Shi Xiaozi took them at a loss . Zhu Qingzao looked at Xu Yi.

Xu Yi smiled lightly and said: "Keep it and eat it."

He came to see a doctor and got two green dates. Shi Xiaozi suppressed the joy in his heart, thanked him and put the dates in his arms.

Watching him put away the dates, Xu Yi picked them up and ate them casually. The skin was thin and the meat was crispy, the juice was abundant, and the bite was full of sweetness.

After eating two, he cleaned his hands and checked Shi Xiaozi's pulse.

Just looking at his face, he doesn't look like a sick person, but there are also mistakes in his face, so we can't generalize.

For example, if there is blood stasis in the brain, there will be more or less symptoms.

Xu Yi asked, "Do you usually have headaches?"

"No." Shi Xiaozi shook his head.

Xu Yi: "What about dizziness?"

"I won't be dizzy either." Shi Xiaozi shook his head again.

Xu Yi frowned and thought: "I don't have a headache or dizziness, but are my hands and feet numb? Or vomiting?"

"Dr. Xu, I don't have any of the symptoms you mentioned." Shi Xiaozi looked at him in confusion. he.

Xu Yi: "..."

There are no symptoms, which is a bit strange.

If there were really no symptoms, then he diagnosed the boy's pulse as thin and stringy.

"Open your mouth and stick out your tongue." Xu Yi said in a deep voice.

Shi Xiaozi did as he was told and stretched out his tongue. Xu Yi raised the lamp and moved closer to him.

Under the light, his tongue coating was thin and greasy, and there was clearly something wrong, but he couldn't identify the specifics.

This made Xu Yi feel troubled for the first time in so long. After thinking about it, he always felt that he was missing something.

"Doctor Xu, didn't you see it?" Shi Xiaozi was very good at reading expressions. Seeing him like this, he couldn't help but panic.

Xu Yi did not answer him directly, but asked: "When you were a child, when you fell from a height, did you only hurt your head?"

"Well, my father said so." He was still young at that time and couldn't remember clearly. .

But his father often thinks about that incident, saying that when he was five years old, he was lying in the corner catching a dragonfly and accidentally dropped it.

At that time, I hit a stone on my brain, which caused a cut and a lot of blood. His father took him to the only doctor in the city to see a doctor. He said it was hopeless, but after a few days, he began to heal and got better.

"My dad said it was the doctor who couldn't do it." Shi Xiaozi curled his lips a little depressed, "But I haven't grown since I was twelve years old. The doctor I saw that time said that I had blood stasis in my brain and that's why I grew taller. It’s not high.”

So, it definitely hurt my head.

"The wound is still there?" Xu Yi asked.

When Shi Xiaozi heard this, he was stunned for a moment. He subconsciously raised his hand to touch the back of his head, but after touching for a while, he couldn't touch anything.

"It seems I can't touch it." He said quietly.

Xu Yi glanced over and the tone of his words didn't sound like he was lying. He then said: "I'll take a look, you turn around."

Shi Xiaozi didn't say anything more and changed his posture obediently.

The hair on the back of his head was thick and rough to the touch. Xu Yi untied his turban and put it aside. He carefully picked out the fine slits of his hair. He put three fingers together and pressed down slowly and gently.

Soon, he felt a bulging lump.

As soon as you touch it, you can tell that the shape is not a skull.

Xu Yi frowned slightly and asked softly, "Does it hurt?"

"Huh?" Shi Xiaozi was a little confused and hadn't reacted yet. The next moment, his whole body was shaking uncontrollably.

He couldn't help but panic, and he just wanted to turn around.

"Well..." There was a sharp pain in my head instantly, as if tens of millions of ants were biting me at the same time.

Xu Yi let go of his hand, but when he saw Shi Xiaozi immediately covered his head in pain and fell to his knees, he almost cried and rolled in pain.

Even Xu Yi was shocked. He took Shi Xiaozi's pulse again, and it was still thin and stringy.

"What, what's wrong with me?" After twitching for a while, Shi Xiaozi finally gasped and spoke with a dry and astringent throat.

The pain was terrible, and even though it had gotten better, it was still aching and swollen.

He looked at Xu Yi in fear. It was exactly where Doctor Xu pressed the back of his head that caused the pain.

After Xu Yi was shocked, he fell silent and had new thoughts in his heart.

After a moment, he said calmly: "You have Qi deficiency and blood stasis, but your meridians are cold and stagnant, and Qi is blocked."

Shi Xiaozi listened blankly, and after a while, he scratched his head and asked: "Doctor Xu, what does this mean? "

Xu Yi weighed the two sides and said softly: "In other words, it's not that you don't feel pain, but you may forget it after the pain."

Shi Xiaozi's eyes widened: "Forgot?"

"Hmm" Xu Yi looked at him. , "If you want to know if it's true, it's easy. I'll put a note in your pocket. If you still remember it tomorrow, then come to me."

Shi Xiaozi looked shocked: "..." Okay, that seems to work too?

Seeing that he agreed, Xu Yi took a piece of bamboo paper and simply wrote six words on it - "The vitality is weak and unrealistic."

Shi Xiaozi didn't know the word, so Xu Yi read it to him. After that, he was asked to fold it well and put it in the pouch.

He warned: "Bring the food early tomorrow."

It might be an opportunity, or it might be a coincidence. The scars from the wound that healed back then are still there, but Shi Xiaozi himself has no idea.

It wasn't that there was a problem with his hand perception, it was that he had mistook the hard lump for bone.

Sometimes it hurts when you press it, and you may forget it when you wake up the next day.

Of course, these were all temporary thoughts he had when he saw Shi Xiaozi having a splitting headache.

I just hope his guess is wrong.

Xu Yi thought to himself silently, looking at him with a softer look.

Shi Xiaozi didn't know anything about it and agreed: "Okay."

...

The next day, the sky was slightly bright.

When the rooster crowed, Xu Yi opened his eyes. He sat up softly and touched Mrs. Tang on the side of the bed. Seeing that it was still warm, he tucked Yan Quyue into a quilt.

Putting on his cotton coat, he stood up and opened the door. The cold wind blew away his remaining sleepiness.

The sky outside was dark and dark, and what he saw seemed to be covered with a thin layer of fog. He looked into the distance and could vaguely see a few lanterns that were not extinguished on the streets in the distance.

Xu Yi played a boxing match in the courtyard.

Waited for another quarter of an hour.

It was getting brighter, and the doors behind them opened one after another. It was Erqing and Ajin who all woke up.

Seeing that Xu Yi had finished practicing his boxing, they were stunned, thinking that they had overslept.

"I woke up early today." Xu Yi smiled and shook his head.

He continued to wait for another two-quarters of an hour. At this time, someone finally opened the door of the inn below. Shi Xiaozi trotted through the hall with his hands in his hands and entered the kitchen at the back.

Not long after he went in, he came out with breakfast in his hands. He walked briskly and climbed up the stairs while humming a tune.

"Huh? Doctor Xu got up so early today?" Shi Xiaozi saw Xu Yi standing in the corridor and said hello in surprise.

Xu Yi suddenly turned around: "Have you forgotten?"

"Doctor Xu, what are you talking about? Why can't I understand what you said." Shi Xiaozi looked confused, and his two thick eyebrows were raised together.

Xu Yi folded his hands in front of him and asked calmly: "It's nothing, I just want to ask you, do you remember what you asked me to do yesterday?"

Shi Xiaozi pursed his lips and thought hard, but still couldn't remember what he asked Xu Yi to do. What.

He asked cautiously: "May I ask Doctor Xu, am I looking for you?"

"Yes." Xu Yi nodded.

Shi Xiaozi: "..." Strange, he wanted to see Xu Yi for medical treatment, but he remembered that he hadn't come yet.

Could it be that... Mrs. Gui went to Dr. Xu first and refused to let Dr. Xu treat him? He was so suspicious that he asked: "Is someone looking for you?"

"You came to see me." Xu Yi sighed and asked if his father was there.

Shi Xiaozi didn't know why Xu Yi was looking for his father, but he honestly told him that his father was downstairs.

At this time, there were rapid footsteps downstairs. Shi Xiaozi's eyes lit up and he turned around to look: "Dad, why are you up here?"

"What are you doing here, kid? Why don't you hurry up and deliver food."

"Oh." Shi Xiaozi blinked, glanced at Xu Yi, and took the food to the next room.

After his son left, Shopkeeper Shi's face suddenly became serious. He cupped his

hands towards Xu Yi and said, "Doctor Xu, that child is reckless and may have offended him in some way. Don't worry about it." "No." Xu Yi shook his head and thought about it. He asked, "I wonder if Shopkeeper Shi knows that your son is mentally ill?"

"He went to look for you?" Shopkeeper Shi looked at Xu Yi in surprise.

Xu Yi muttered: "I have seen it. I made an appointment with him last night and asked him to come to deliver food a quarter of an hour early today, but he forgot. Even when he came to see me for medical treatment, he completely forgot."

"Does Shopkeeper Shi know about this?"

Looking at Shopkeeper Shi who looked slightly calm, Xu Yi guessed that maybe it wasn't that he didn't seek medical treatment, but that there was no doctor who could cure the disease.

Hearing this, shopkeeper Shi sighed deeply and said: "Quizi's disease has been like this since he kowtowed to his head. Over the years, he has often gone to the doctor, but there is no cure. Only in the past few years have he given up. Let him be like this." "

But, for some reason, this kid wanted to seek treatment from a doctor alone.

Everyone in the inn knew about this, and they were afraid that telling the truth would scare him, so they kept it secret.

The result was good, this time a doctor came to stay.

This guy actually went looking for it.

Xu Yi said in a stern tone: "I'm afraid this disease cannot be postponed. The blood stasis is still there, and if it doesn't heal for a long time, it will be very harmful to the body."

"Can it be cured?" Shopkeeper Shi looked solemn.

Xu Yi shook his head: "It can only disperse the blood stasis and ventilate the Qi. As for memory, it depends on his luck."

If you leave the disease alone, accidents may happen at any time. Shopkeeper Shi wants his son to live in peace, so the only way to go is to treat his illness.

Without thinking too much, Shopkeeper Shi agreed to let Xu Yi treat his son.

"Okay, then I'll leave it to Doctor Xu." Shopkeeper Shi cupped his hands and bowed.

At this time, Shi Xiaozi didn't know about this yet. He delivered the food and heard that his father had asked Dr. Xu to treat him.

"Dad, didn't you say before that the disease was cured and no more treatment was needed? Why did you suddenly change your mind?" Shi Xiaozi surrounded his father in disbelief. "I told you that you were lying to me. You must not be willing to do it for me." I'll pay for the medical treatment."

"You bastard, I'll beat you if you say anything again." Shopkeeper Shi pretended to raise his fist and danced towards his son.

Shi Xiaozi quickly dodged the fist and said with a smile: "Dad, you can't hit me."

Shopkeeper Shi's breathing was stagnant: ...

His face was expressionless, but he was bitterly smiling and cursing in his heart, fearing that he owed this child in his previous life, and in this life Come to collect debts from him.

Since Xu Yi wanted to treat Shi Xiaozi, he didn't delay. He prescribed peach kernel soup with flavored whole scorpions that day.

Whole scorpion has the effect of unblocking meridians and relieving pain, attacking poison and dispersing stagnation. Xu Yi also thought carefully about adding it in the prescription. For people with old injuries like Shi Xiaozi's, simple peach kernel decoction is not enough.

Taoren Decoction is mainly used to treat blood stasis caused by falling. Under this premise, the dosage needs to be increased.

Not only the whole scorpion is added, but also the other royal medicine peach kernel and the auxiliary medicine Guixin are added by one penny.

He asked A Xu to grab the medicinal materials and take them to the backyard to cook.

Then, he made another recipe and asked Shopkeeper Shi to buy a piece of pork liver.

"You want pork liver?" Shopkeeper Shi was surprised.

Xu Yi said: "After buying this pig liver, roast it with charcoal in the stove, iron it on the hard lump at the back, let it cool and then roast it, repeat it three times a day."

Shopkeeper Shi nodded and asked carefully: "What about this pig liver? " I’ve run out of liver, can I still eat it?”

“…”

Xu Yi said calmly, “It’s edible, but it’s not delicious.”

Shopkeeper Shi nodded, as long as it’s edible, whether it’s delicious or not is not a consideration.

After three consecutive days of ironing, the hard lump on the back of Shi Xiaozi's head showed signs of softening.

This time, Xu Yi pressed again, and he just cried out in pain. When he woke up the next day, he showed no symptoms of amnesia.

Such signs gave everyone hope.

But Xu Yi didn't say much. This effect was far from enough.

But it was inconvenient for them to stay in Ba County for a long time, so Xu Yi left half a month's supply of medicine for them, and asked them to continue taking medicine soup and ironing pig liver every day according to the method he told them.

The medication can only be stopped until the blood clot has completely disappeared and there is no longer any sign of pain.

As for the issue of amnesia, it depends on Shi Xiaozi's luck.
