Chapter 53 Notice
Lin Qian's house was built exactly the same as the previous one. After living in it, a familiar feeling came naturally.
The next day, Meng Yi and Lin Qian couldn't help wanting to go to Bo County. Lin Wu and the others had things to do, so the master and apprentice had to go together.
Bo County is worthy of being the hometown of Hua Tuo and lives up to the name of Medicine Capital. Before entering Bo County, Lin Qian could smell the strong aroma of medicine.
"Master, why haven't you been to Bo County before?" Lin Qian asked Meng Yi.
"After being driven out by my family, I've been wandering around aimlessly. I'm glad I didn't die. I don't have the mood to wander around." Meng Yi said, taking a breath as he spoke.
Then tell Lin Qian what medicinal herbs each smell represents.
After entering Bo County, the two were even more surprised. In addition to the usual county shops, the most common shops on the street were pharmacies.
At a glance, there are only medical clinics and pharmacies.
Lin Qian and Meng Yi walked, looked around, and finally came to the central street.
There is a wide open space on the central street of Bo County. In the center of the open space, there is a huge stone statue of Hua Tuo.
Looking at the tall stone statue, Lin Qian reached out and touched it, saying, "Is this Hua Tuo?"
Meng Yi didn't look at the statue of Hua Tuo, but stared at a notice board next to it.
"Master? Master? What are you looking at?" Lin Qian asked twice, and out of curiosity she leaned over to take a look.
"Male, 58 years old, suffers from asthma, and is seeking medical treatment at a high price. He lives in..."
"Female, 68 years old, cataract, now blind, seeking medical treatment at a high price."
This notice board is filled with notices asking for high salaries to seek medical treatment.
In the middle of the notice board, a large red notice was prominently displayed. It read: "Male, 46 years old, lung disease, coughing day and night, blood in sputum, seeking medical treatment at a substantial cost."
And what Meng Yi was reading was this notice.
Lin Qian pulled Meng Yi's clothes and asked, "Master, what's wrong with you? Do you want to go to this hospital for treatment?"
The notice said that after the patient was cured, he would receive 100 taels of silver.
Meng Yi nodded and said, "I've come across this disease before, and it's actually curable. Xuanyuan acupuncture combined with herbal remedies can cure it within a month.
But that person didn't believe me and believed someone else. Later, because his illness was too serious, he passed away. "As he spoke, Meng Yi's face was filled with loneliness and regret.
The person who could make Meng Yi look like this must be the one who framed him.
"Then Master, should we save this person?" Lin Qian asked.
Meng Yi nodded: "Save him, of course I have to. I came up with a perfect plan before, but it's a pity that I have no place to use it."
The master and disciple looked at each other and went towards the address written on the notice.
When Lin Qian saw the notice, she knew that this family must be either wealthy or noble, but she didn't expect them to have such a great background.
It is the richest family in Bo County, the Wang family.
Arriving at the Wang family mansion, Lin Qian and Meng Yi were about to go in when two servants immediately stopped them and asked, "What are you doing here?"
Lin Qian said, "My master is a doctor. We saw the notice and came to see Mr. Wang."
The two servants looked the master and the disciple up and down, their eyes full of suspicion. After all, Lin Qian and Meng Yi were dressed very ordinary and did not look like doctors.
However, thinking of their master's illness, the two of them still led Lin Qian and Meng Yi, the master and apprentice, into the Wang family.
The Wang family mansion was very large and luxurious. Lin Qian and Meng Yi walked all the way, passed through the hanging flower gate, and turned several corners in the corridor before they saw a courtyard.
Before entering the yard, Lin Qian heard many people whispering. As soon as she entered the yard, Lin Qian widened her eyes. The yard was full of people in groups of three or five.
Moreover, each of them carried a medicine box and had a medicine boy with him, so you could tell at a glance that they were all doctors.
As soon as Lin Qian and Meng Yi came in, everyone looked over. After taking a look, they all looked away at the same time.
Everyone waited in the courtyard for a while, and then the doors of the five main rooms suddenly opened. A little maid stood in front of the door and said, "Please come in, doctors. My master has woken up."
Lin Qian looked up at the sky. The sun was about to reach its peak. Why was it getting up just now? He was indeed a wealthy man, so willful.
The doctors went in one after another, with Lin Qian and Meng Yi following at the end.
On the couch on the east side, a middle-aged man was half lying. I guess he was the Master Wang mentioned in the notice. His face was a little pale, his hair was dry and yellow, and he was coughing violently with his handkerchief covering his mouth.
Meng Yi looked at Mr. Wang, then said to Lin Qian, "Look, Mr. Wang's eyes have bloodshot eyes and a yellowish tint."
"I see. Master, you once said that the qi of the eyes originates from the lungs. When the lungs are exhausted, the eyelids turn yellow. When there is lung disease, the eyes will be bloodshot." Lin Qian said.
Meng Yi smiled and nodded, looking at Lin Qian with appreciation.
Mr. Wang's lung condition must be very serious, and it may have developed into lung cancer. However, it should be in the early stages. Apart from a slight cough and coughing up blood, there are no other symptoms.
While the master and the disciple were talking in whispers, a doctor had already started to take Mr. Wang's pulse.
"It's caused by internal deficiency of vital energy and external invasion of evil toxins, with internal accumulation of phlegm and stagnation of qi and blood stasis in the lungs. It's not a serious illness, but you need to rest. You can drink Erchen Decoction." The doctor said after taking the patient's pulse.
Mr. Wang sighed slightly and nodded slightly. The maid immediately asked the second doctor to come and see him.
The second doctor made a similar diagnosis to the previous one, but prescribed Taohong Siwu Decoction instead.
"Master, isn't Taohong Siwu Decoction used to treat qi stagnation and blood stasis? But why did the last doctor prescribe a decoction for resolving phlegm? Who is right?" Lin Qian asked, pulling Meng Yi's clothes after hearing what the doctor said.
Meng Yi said, "Both are right and wrong. It's just like robbing Peter to pay Paul. It's only treating the symptoms, not the root cause."
After hearing what this person said, Mr. Wang's expression became even more dull. He half-lay on the couch with his eyelids half-open, looking uninterested.
The doctors behind him looked at each other in confusion when they saw him like this.
Doctors came one after another to take Mr. Wang's pulse, and what they said was basically the same. When Mr. Wang heard the last one, he even closed his eyes.
Soon, there were only three people left whose pulses had not been diagnosed. Apart from Meng Yi, the other two were white-haired old men.
The old man in green walked forward a few steps. When the doctors who were whispering to each other saw him come out, they suddenly fell silent.
Mr. Wang also opened his eyes. Seeing the old doctor in green, his eyes lit up slightly and he said, "Mr. Ge, I didn't expect you to come too."
Elder Ge smiled and said, "Master Wang is making such a fuss about this. I also want to see what the disease is."
He then extended his hand to feel her pulse. After a while, Elder Ge pondered and said, "The lung disease isn't serious. With a combination of medicine and acupuncture, it should be cured in about half a year of rest. However, you must pay more attention to keeping warm and avoid catching cold, otherwise it will relapse."
"Alas, Mr. Ge, I have tried all these doctors and the suggestions and prescriptions you just gave me, but none of them worked."
