After leaving the company, Xiao Chen thought of something and turned around to ask, "Da Han, you haven't told me what disease your mother has."
Li Hanhou's expression darkened, and his huge body trembled a few times: "Lung cancer, late stage."
"Advanced stage of lung cancer?"
Xiao Chen's hands holding the steering wheel also trembled. Originally, he thought it was a common disease and he could treat it...but for the advanced stage of lung cancer, there was nothing he could do!
This is a terminal illness, and there seems to be no good method in the world that can cure it 100%!
"When we first came, the doctor said that if we actively cooperated with the treatment, there was still hope... Later, the doctor said there was no hope and asked us to go home."
A look of pain flashed across Li Hanhou's face, his fists were clenched tightly, and veins bulged on his strong arms.
"Dahan, birth, aging, sickness and death are things that no one can do anything about," Xiao Chen said comfortingly.
"They clearly said there was hope of a cure, why did they later say it couldn't be cured! I don't want my mother to leave me, she is the only relative I have in this world!"
Li Hanhou became emotional and tears as big as beans rolled down his cheeks.
Xiao Chen looked at the painful Li Hanhou and wanted to say a few more words of comfort, but he didn't know what to say! Should he tell him that because you brought money with you, the hospital said it could be cured, and when you spent all your money, they would let you go home and wait to die?
This may be true, but it is too disheartening to say it out loud!
"Wow, I don't want my mother to die..."
Such a big man suddenly cried like a baby.
Xiao Chen slowed down the car and patted Li Hanhou on the shoulder: "Da Han, don't cry, maybe there will be a way out, maybe a miracle will happen, maybe your mother will not leave you!"
"real?"
Li Hanhou raised his head and sniffed.
"Yes, really, Brother Chen won't lie to you!"
Li Hanhou nodded and wiped his tears: "Well, my mother is a good person. I don't think God will let her die."
"Yes, good people will have a peaceful life."
Xiao Chen looked at Li Hanhou, whose face was full of tears, smiled, and made a decision in his heart.
When passing by a shopping mall, Xiao Chen stopped the car and bought some nutritional supplements. Then he found a herbal medicine shop and prepared to stew some mild tonic.
"Hello, sir, what kind of supplements do you need?"
The staff of the herbal medicine shop came forward and asked with a smile.
"Do you have all the materials?"
"Sir, this is the largest herbal medicine shop in Longhai. We have all kinds of Chinese herbs and other ingredients... There are also Chinese medicine practitioners and professional herbal medicine chefs over there. You can go over and consult them..."
"No, just give me a pen and paper. I have my own prescription."
Xiao Chen shook his head and said.
The staff was stunned, but still provided paper and pen and handed them to Xiao Chen: "Sir, if it is the prescription you provided yourself, then our herbal medicine shop will not bear any responsibility, and our herbal medicine shop needs to let the herbalist review it..."
"Yeah, no problem."
Xiao Chen took the paper and pen, thought for a moment, and wrote a prescription on the paper.
"Brother Chen, do you know this?"
Li Hanhou was a little worried, after all, this was something for his mother to drink.
"Do you believe me?" Xiao Chen asked.
Li Hanhou nodded without hesitation. Although he was simple-minded, he was not stupid. He could feel that Xiao Chen was really good to him!
Xiao Chen smiled and handed the prescription to the staff: "Give it to your herbalist for review."
"Xiao Zhang, let me see this prescription."
Suddenly, an old man in Tang suit nearby spoke to the staff.
"Hello, Yao Lao!"
When the staff saw the old man, his expression became extremely respectful. He bent slightly and handed over the prescription with both hands.
Xiao Chen looked at the old man with curiosity. Who is this person? From his clothes and temperament, it can be seen that this old man is not an ordinary person. Could he be the owner of the herbal medicine shop?
The old man saw Xiao Chen looking at him and smiled gently: "My friend, I am also half a member of the herbal medicine shop. Let me help you review it."
"Old sir, please." Xiao Chen nodded with a smile. He didn't care. It didn't matter who interrogated him.
The old man looked at it carefully, his eyes widened and his expression became more surprised. Then he suddenly raised his head, looked at Xiao Chen and asked, "My friend, can I ask, what kind of patient is this medicinal recipe for?"
"Haha, what do you think, old man?"
Xiao Chen smiled slightly, and also became somewhat thoughtful.
"Houttuynia cordata, spicy, cold, enters the lung meridian... Glehnia littoralis, sweet, mild, cold, enters the lung meridian... Ophiopogon japonicus... Judging from these Chinese medicines, the patient's disease should be in the lungs, is that right?"
Xiao Chen nodded: "That's right."
"There is also Houttuynia cordata. Could it be lung cancer?" the old man continued.
"The old man is right. This is advanced stage lung cancer."
"Then can I ask, what are the functions of these ingredients? It is clearly a prescription for clearing away heat, detoxifying, and relieving lung heat, so why are there fishy and hot medicines?" The old man pointed at several medicines on the paper.
"Haha, the old gentleman is very talented. If it were an ordinary Chinese medicine practitioner, he would probably question me why I randomly added these medicines, but the old gentleman did not. I guess he saw something." Xiao Chen said with a smile.
The old man was stunned, then he laughed: "Haha, why don't you think I'm a mediocre person? If I can't understand the recipe, I can't point it out, right?"
"That's right, but I think since this place has become the largest medicinal food shop in Longhai City, it shouldn't keep mediocre people, right?"
The old man was stunned again and gave a thumbs up: "Young friend, your opinion is unique. Would you like to talk about it?"
"Okay, but we have to let them stew the medicinal food first."
The old man nodded and handed the prescription to the staff: "Xiao Zhang, make the medicinal food according to this prescription and do it carefully."
"Yes, Yao Lao."
The staff nodded respectfully and turned to make arrangements.
"Young friend, please."
The old man gestured with one hand and walked inside with Xiao Chen and Li Hanhou.
Arriving at the inner room, the old man asked the two to sit down, and then asked impatiently: "I have seen similar statements in an ancient medical book before, but because the book was incomplete, I didn't fully understand it... Later, after my research, I found that what was said above is feasible..."
"Haha, old sir, is this ancient book you are talking about the Yin-Yang Medical Canon?" Xiao Chen asked with an idea in his mind.
When the old man heard this, he stood up suddenly: "You, how did you know?"
"Haha, if I say I have read the whole book, will you believe it, old sir?" Xiao Chen said with a smile.
"Complete copy? That's impossible? I only got a fragmentary copy by chance..." The old man was a little uneasy, no longer as calm as before.
Xiao Chen did not explain much, but recited a passage from it. The old man became completely upset after hearing it. This was exactly the same as the content of the incomplete copy he got!
"My dear friend, where did you learn from?"
"Haha, I learned this from an old fortune teller."
"Old fortune teller?" The old man was stunned. Learning medical skills from a fortune teller? Why is that so weird?
"Old sir, the prescription just now is like this..." Xiao Chen did not talk much about the master-disciple issue, but started talking about the prescription.
The old man sat up straighter, listened carefully, and occasionally raised his own questions and opinions and discussed them with Xiao Chen.
Beside him, Li Hanhou was also very happy. Although he didn't understand what Xiao Chen was saying, the fact that the old man could understand him like a primary school student showed that Brother Chen was really capable!
"Wonderful, wonderful!" More than ten minutes later, the old man clapped his thighs, smiling: "Listening to your talk today is really better than reading medical books for ten years!"
"Haha, old man, this is serious."
"Oh, I was so busy asking for advice that I forgot to ask what your name is?" the old man asked, thinking of something.
"My last name is Xiao, and my name is Xiao Chen."
"Okay, Xiao Xiao, this is my business card." The old man took out a business card and handed it to Xiao Chen.
Xiao Chen took it. The business card was very simple, with "Yao Qihuang" written on it. Apart from the name, there was a number and no other introduction.
But such a simple name made Xiao Chen's heart tremble. Is it really him?
Just now, when the staff outside called him "Medicine Master", he thought of a person, Yao Qihuang, the honorary president of the Chinese Medical Association, the leading figure in the Chinese traditional Chinese medicine community, and one of the three most famous doctors in China!
Because the surname "Yao" is rare, and the old man has an extraordinary temperament and a strong smell of traditional Chinese medicine, so he guessed in this direction, and he didn't expect that he guessed right!
"Master Yao, I have heard of your name."
"Oh? Haha, it's just an empty reputation. Let's not talk about that. Let's not talk about that!"
Yao Qihuang was stunned, then waved his hand.
"Haha, Yao Lao, why are you here?" Xiao Chen asked curiously.
"Oh, this herbal medicine shop is opened by a nephew of mine. I happened to be in Longhai for something these few days, so he asked me to come over in my spare time... I didn't expect to meet Xiao Xiaoyou, it's really fate!"
"So that's how it is... Haha, it's fate. I didn't expect that I would meet the leading figure in the Chinese traditional medicine world by randomly choosing a herbal medicine shop..."
"I've already said that I won't talk about those empty names. My limited medical skills are nothing in front of you... You've read the entire Yin-Yang Medical Classic, and you will surely shine in the future!"
“Brother Chen, is this old man… no, this old gentleman very good at medicine?”
Suddenly, Li Hanhou asked.
"Yes, Mr. Yao is one of the three most famous doctors in Chinese traditional Chinese medicine!" Xiao Chen nodded.
"Then can he save my mother?" Li Hanhou asked excitedly.
"My friend, what is your mother's illness?" Yao Qihuang looked at Li Hanhou and asked.
"What hall?" Li Hanhou didn't understand.
"Um, what's your mother's illness?" Yao Qihuang was stunned for a moment, then changed his wording.
"My mother is in the advanced stage of lung cancer. Miracle doctor, can you save her? As long as you can cure her, I will work like a slave for you for the rest of my life!" Li Hanhou said loudly.
Yao Qihuang's mouth twitched a few times. Lung cancer in the advanced stage? Even though he was a famous doctor, he was not sure about this terminal illness!
Third update, 9000 words... It was difficult to write the book in the early stage, but I was in a better state today, so I stayed up late to finish this chapter! No matter whether you scold me or understand me, I am doing my best to write this book with sincerity... Well, that's it, good night.
