Chapter 275: Treating a disease according to the book
It was obviously difficult for Zhou Silang to breathe his last like this, mainly because he fell quite seriously. It had rained yesterday and the soil under the weeds was very slippery. He turned around to argue with someone and they chased him. He was so anxious that he took a shortcut and wanted to make a big leap.
As a result, before he could jump up, he slipped and sat down on the ground and slid down.
Fortunately, if he had fallen after jumping up, it would have been fatal.
Zhou Silang himself was still in shock, but the pain in his buttocks and waist was enough to make him feel uneasy.
When Fang brought the medicinal wine over, she saw the brother and sister, one lying on the bed and the other hiding behind the door, talking from a distance.
She looked at Langjun first, then asked Manbao, "Why don't you go in?"
Manbao took the opportunity to complain: "Fourth brother will beat me."
Fang glared at Zhou Silang.
Zhou Silang held his waist, feeling extremely wronged, and shouted, "Did I do that?"
“It’s moving!”
Zhou Silang thought about it and realized that he really did move, but he didn't hit anyone, so he lay there and didn't say anything.
Fang understood immediately and brought Manbao into the house. She then pulled up Zhou Silang's clothes and tried to take off his pants. Zhou Silang was so frightened that he almost jumped out of the bed. He quickly grabbed his pants and shouted, "Little sister is still here."
Fang then smiled at Manbao a little embarrassedly, but still insisted, "Manbao is reading a medical book, let her take a look, what if the bones are injured?"
Zhou Silang was not happy.
Manbao felt that Fourth Sister-in-law was right. She said, "Wait a minute. I'll go back and get the book."
Manbao is now very interested in medicine and has read most of the "Complete Yellow Emperor's Classic of Internal Medicine". Although she still does not understand most of the content, she knows through discussions with Keke that there are more subdivided books in the encyclopedia.
Manbao didn't go to get the "Complete Yellow Emperor's Classic of Internal Medicine", but directly asked Keke to buy a book that she had already set her eyes on and searched for.
It is called "Basics of Orthopedics" and is said to have been written by a very famous orthopedic professor in the 22nd century of the Earth Era.
He studied Traditional Chinese Medicine and advocated for the combination of Chinese and Western diagnosis and treatment. For this purpose, he even went to the chaotic front line as a volunteer doctor.
Manbao already knew that the future development of medicine was beyond her reach, because even though they were very dependent on traditional Chinese medicine now, it was different from their current practice of simply making medicines.
According to Koko, they directly extract the parts they need from the medicine, or ask the pharmacist to make medicine that is more targeted to the condition.
In comparison, Koko recommended that she use the traditional Chinese medicine techniques from before the 23rd century of the Earth Era. Although there are some differences from the medical techniques of the current era, they are all within her learning ability.
For many days and nights, Manbao secretly did investigations and homework within the system. She trusted Keke very much, so she was very receptive to its opinions.
Because in her opinion, Koko was a very powerful person. He was looking down at them from the perspective of history thousands of years later, just like she was standing in the history she had read and looking at the ancient people thousands of years ago.
Manbao used her points to redeem the book, asked Keke to scan the book, and then asked her which diagnosis and treatment method written in the book was suitable for her brother's current condition.
Keke charged for scanning patients, but scanning books, especially those published by the encyclopedia, was a daily routine. He had already collected the data for this book when he found it, so he didn't touch the data at all. It simply said, "Pages 26 to 31."
Manbao immediately turned to page 26 and read it quickly. Well, that was good. She didn’t understand most of it, but it didn’t matter. The diagnosis and treatment steps written on it seemed very simple, so she still understood it.
Manbao ran to find his fourth brother with the book in his arms.
Zhou Silang's pants were half pulled off by Fang and he was covering them with a quilt. He was trying to argue with her, but to no avail. When he saw Manbao running towards him, he buried his head in the pillow and refused to lift it up.
Even though they are brother and sister, and Manbao is not big enough, he doesn't mind looking at Manbao's butt, and he can even let him give his youngest sister a bath. After all, the other party is not yet seven years old, right?
But, but now he is the one who is naked and he is in big trouble.
Zhou Silang lay down pretending to be dead, giving up everything, but Fang was very happy and waved to call Manbao over.
In her opinion, it's no big deal.
When her cousin was eight or nine years old, he liked to take a bath in the yard.
"Look at your fourth brother here. It's very bruised. I feel it's a little hard when I touch it. He cries out in pain when I poke him. Is this bone broken?"
Manbao put the book aside and took a look. He found that there was indeed a large bruise on the upper part of his buttocks and the left lower back, as well as some scars, which should have been caused by scratches from branches, stones, etc.
Manbao carefully looked down at the book, then followed the steps in the book and reached out to press on his injury, asking, "Does it hurt?"
Zhou Silang said unhappily, "Of course it hurts. It hurts so much."
Manbao was a little panicked, "Does it really hurt like hell?"
Zhou Silang: ...
Manbao quickly poked another spot and asked, "Does it hurt here?"
"It hurts. It hurts a lot."
Manbao touched the area around the bruise and asked, "Does it hurt here?"
Zhou Silang shouted without pausing, "It hurts, it hurts."
Manbao panicked now, his hand already moved to the back of his right waist, and asked, "Here?"
"It hurts, it hurts."
Manbao started crying and looked at Fang anxiously, saying, "Sister-in-law, it seems like my fourth brother is about to die!"
Fang: "...Manbao, don't scare Fourth Sister-in-law."
Zhou Silang looked so lively and energetic, how could you tell that he was about to die?
"He's going to die. The book says it all. Fourth brother must be bleeding profusely. This isn't just a simple fall. His bones must be broken too..."
The injured area hurts, and the surrounding area hurts too. If this isn't a sign of imminent death, then what is it?
The book says that this is very dangerous.
Fang was also a little flustered, but she vaguely felt that something was wrong, so she tugged at Zhou Silang's arm, pulled his head up, and looked at his face carefully. "Manbao, look, is your fourth brother's face turning blue or pale?"
Manbao also learned the basics of observation, smell, questioning, and palpation, and quickly crawled over to take a look. After taking a look, he said in confusion, "No, it's very rosy, it doesn't look like someone who is about to die."
Fang: ...
Zhou Silang: ...
Koko: ...
Manbao directly pulled up his eyelids, looked at his eyes, then pulled up his mouth to look at his tongue, and then looked at his rosy lips. Manbao was silent.
Koko suppressed a laugh and said, "Host, you have to learn to judge whether what the patient says is true or false. You can't just believe everything the patient says."
It means that Zhou Silang is lying.
Manbao was a little angry. He slapped the bed and glared at Zhou Silang, "Fourth brother, where does it hurt?"
