The man wished for a miracle to happen .
Eventually, he saw a young man walking from the hill towards the clinic . After the young man had arrived at the clinic, he unlocked the door .
He’s here!
The man turned off the engine, then opened the door of his car . Suddenly he felt so cold .
“Gee, so cold!” said the man .
“Hmmm?” Wang Yao turned his head and saw the man getting out of the car . The man was wearing a down jacket .
It’s him!
Wang Yao remembered this man, who was in his 30’s . He remembered that the man was as weak as a woman who just gave birth to a baby .
As Wang Yao walked closer, he found that the man’s face was so pale . He was shivering with cold . It seemed that his condition had gotten worse .
What happened to him?
“Hello, Dr . Wang,” said the man .
“Hello,” said Wang Yao .
“I…” The man didn’t know what to say .
“Your condition has gotten worse?” asked Wang Yao .
“Yes,” said the man .
“Please come in,” said Wang Yao .
After they both had settled in the clinic, Wang Yao had a good look at the man .
“Hmmm, strange!” said Wang Yao .
He found that the man’s damaged vital energy had started to affect his fundamental health .
“Have you taken the formula I prescribed?” asked Wang Yao .
“Yes, I followed your instructions without any problems,” said the man certainly .

“Have you eaten anything you are not supposed to eat?” asked Wang Yao .
“No, definitely not . You told me not to eat cold and uncooked food . So I have only been eating warm and well-cooked food,” said the man .
“Where have you been lately?” asked Wang Yao .
“Nowhere . I just stayed at home watching TV, taking the medication, and sleeping,” said the man after thinking for a while . “It’s so cold outside, so I haven’t gone out . The only place I go is the grocery shop downstairs . I needed to buy vegetables and meat . ”
Wang Yao didn’t know what to say . The man followed all his instructions, and his formula had no problems . How come he had been getting worse?
According to the man, he had started to be extremely sensitive to coldness since autumn . Then it got worse . He had to leave the heater on all the time in winter . He still felt cold, even with thick quilts covering his body . Wang Yao was pretty sure that the man’s vital energy had a massive deficiency . If the man’s condition got worse, he would be like Yang Haichuan’s mother, whose fundamental health had been damaged .
“Well, I’ll prescribe you a different formula this time . Please try it . ” After thinking for a while, Wang Yao prescribed him Sanyang Powder, which he had prescribed for Yang Haichuan’s mother before .
“Another prescription?” said the man .
“Yes?” said Wang Yao with surprise . The man was fed up with medications .
“Tell you the truth . I’ve seen at least 10 doctors due to my condition . Every doctor prescribed different medications for me, but none of those medications worked,” said the man .
“What medications have you taken?” asked Wang Yao .
The man was prepared . He took out a list out of his pocket, on which he wrote all the medications he had taken .
“Wow, you really pay attention to details,” said Wang Yao, smiling .
He took over the list to and read it thoroughly .
Most of the medications were chemical drugs, which Wang Yao was not familiar with . He had never heard of most of the medications, let alone their effect and nature .
The man’s condition is caused by external factors . What damaged his vital energy so badly? thought Wang Yao .
“Have you had any serious injuries before?” asked Wang Yao .
“No,” said the man .
“Hmmm . ” Sometimes Wang Yao had difficulty figuring out the cause of a disease .
He had a look at the man again .
What is this?!

He found something different this time .
Such as strong Yin energy! There was a weird cold energy inside the man’s body, which was completely different to the energy he found in Yang Haichuan’s mother’s body . This weird cold energy was not easy to detect .
Inhale, exhale .
Wang Yao suddenly thought about a way . He transferred some Qi into the man’s body, and as he did, he felt a slice of weak Qi coming from the man . If Wang Yao’s Qi was a burning flame, the man’s Qi was a candle in the wind .
The man’s Qi was weak and in disorder .
“Doctor?” asked the man .
“Just one second . ” Wang Yao was still thinking .
“Let’s go . ” He suddenly stood up .
“Where are we going?” asked the man .
“Your house,” said Wang Yao .
“My house? Why?” asked the man .
“I can’t explain it,” said Wang Yao . “Is it okay with you?”
“Yes, let’s go,” said the man .
Wang Yao stuck a sign on the door, indicating he was not in the clinic before he left .
“This way, please,” said the man .
“I’ll drive my own car . Can you lead the way? I’ll follow your car,” said Wang Yao .
Wang Yao drove behind the man slowly .
Zhu City was located next to Lianshan . The road between two places was very wide, and it was the only main road . There were a lot of cars on the road .
Wang Yao and the man arrived at the man’s house about one hour later . The man’s name was Lun Hengran .
The heater was on when they entered the house . It was very warm .
“Please take a seat, Dr . Wang . ” The man went to the kitchen to make Wang Yao a cup of tea .

“You don’t need to worry about me, I won’t stay long,” said Wang Yao .
After entering the room, Wang Yao had a strange feeling on top of the warm feeling .
He felt cold!
It was a coldness . Not like a usual coldness, but a strange gloomy and cold feeling . As if Wang Yao was standing in the shadow on a warm winter day . It was a spooky feeling .
The aura in the room was weird . It was in disorder . Normally the aura in a room in winter should be stable because people kept the window closed most of the time . Wang Yao tried to release some of his Qi to have a stronger sense of the coldness .
He walked around the living room and noticed there were a lot of indoor plants . He could see over 20 different plants . The edge of the walls were filled with flower pots .
“You like flowers?” asked Wang Yao .
“Yes, I like flowers . Every time I find a nice pot of flowers, I will bring it home,” said Lun Hengran .
Wang Yao had a close look at those flowers .
“Some of them are not suitable to be put indoors,” said Wang Yao .
“Oh, why?” asked Lun Hengran .
“Flowers like lily, tuberose, and mimosa will release some special substances that could your health . And this one, pine, and cypress bonsai . I can see you have least five of them in the living room,” said Wang Yao .
“Yes, six actually . Evergreen plants . I really like them,” said Lun Hengran .
“They are actually worse . Pine and cypress releases a special aroma, which some people are allergic to . In addition, Pine and cypress are evergreen plants, which has a strong Yin energy . They are often planted next to cemeteries,” said Wang Yao .
“Oh my! I never thought about it!” said Lun Hengran .
“Most of the plants here have to be moved out of your house, otherwise they’ll have a very negative impact on your health,” said Wang Yao .
He didn’t expect that Lun Hengran was so keen to collect bonsai . If he had placed these bonsai in a garden or greenhouse, the impact on his health wouldn’t be that profound . However, he placed them all inside his house . The damage was huge .
However, the bonsai was not the biggest problem Lun Hengran had in his house .
Wang Yao stopped in front of the TV cabinet .
“What’s wrong, Dr . Wang?” asked Lun Hengran .
“Where is this stone from?” asked Wang Yao .
He noticed a bluish yellow stone placed on the TV cabinet . The stone was an irregular disc-shape, and there was a line on it .
“Oh, I bought it,” said Lun Hengran .
“What did you buy it for?” asked Wang Yao .
“Oh, because it is such a unique shape . I thought it looks pretty, so I spent 300 yuan buying it,” said Lun Hengran .
“300 yuan? Do you know what it is?” asked Wang Yao .
“One of my friends told me the stone seems to be from Yellow River . He said 300 is a good price,” said Lun Hengran .
“A Yellow River Stone? No, this is worship stone,” said Wang Yao .
“What is worship stone?” asked Lun Hengran .
“A worship stone is something you put in front of a grave to worship your dead family members,” said Wang Yao .
Wang Yao could sense a unique Yin energy when he stood in front of the TV cabinet . The Yin energy was strong and disturbed the aura of the house . It shocked Wang Yao . He took a good look, and found this stone, which was used to worship the dead . He was astonished to see it in a living person’s house .
“Wait, the stone is really used to worship the dead?” asked Lun Hengran .
“Yes, guaranteed,” said Wang Yao .
The reason why Wang Yao recognized the stone immediately was because that he had seen its description in The Treatise on Miscellaneous Diseases . The stone could be used as herb, and his Qi couldn’t steer him wrong as to the nature .
“I see . I actually have another stone in my bedroom . Can you have a look?” said Lun Hengran .
“Another one?” said Wang Yao .
Following Lun Hengran into his bedroom, Wang Yao saw a second worship stone, which was smaller than the one in the living room .
“That one,” said Lun Hengran .
“Same thing,” said Wang Yao .
He was really surprised to see two worship stones in someone’s house .
No matter if you looked at it from Feng Shui or just sheer superstition, it was not a good thing to place items related to the dead in one’s house . In addition, the stones had strong Yin energy . Not to mention they were taken from the grave, which made the Yin energy even stronger .
A large amount of bonsai trees and two worship stones turned a living person’s house into a grave, especially there considering the two pine and cypress bonsai next to the worship stone in the living room .
