“Doctor, I feel weak and sweat a lot . I also don’t sleep well at night,” the next patient said .
His symptoms were common among people in their 60s . However, the patient seemed to be only about 30 years old .
The man had a pale face, dark eyes, and dry and yellow hair . He was also short of breath and had terrible breath and body odor .
“How old are you?” Wang Yao asked .
“Twenty-five,” the patient replied .
“Are you married?” Wang Yao asked .
“No, I don’t even have a girlfriend,” the patient said .
The patient was about 5-foot-9, but he spoke in a low voice like a mosquito . He sounded very weak, which surprised Wang Yao .
The patient had a kidney essence deficiency as a result of having too much sex . The kidney was the origin of congenital constitution . Every human being had Yin, Yang, and five elements . Based on the Yin Yang theory, the kidney was in charge of the Yin energy . Based on the five-element theory, kidney was closely relate to water . With insufficient Yin energy in the kidney, a person would often feel dizzy, have ringing in the ears, and feel weak in the lower back and knees, as well as unsettled at night .
“Do you have some special habit?” Wang Yao asked .
“What?” The patient was surprised . “Habit?” He immediately understood what Wang Yao meant and turned red in the face .
“So, I’m right?” Wang Yao asked .
“Yes,” the patient said .
Wang Yao had found the cause of his condition .
“My condition is related to that?” The young man had not considered that would cause his problem .
“Yes,” Wang Yao said .
“I know it is not good, but I can’t help myself,” the young man said .
“You can’t help yourself?” Wang Yao thought for a moment . “This is simple . ”
He poked at the young man’s lower belly several times .
“Come back in a week,” Wang Yao said .
“That’s it?” the young man asked .

“Yes,” Wang Yao said .
“Thank you, Doctor . ” The young man was polite . He walked out, but Wang Yao could tell he wasn’t quite convinced .
“This is gonna work,” Wang Yao said with a smile .
“This is gonna work?” murmured the young man after walking out of the clinic . Since he first masturbated after watching an erotic movie several years ago, he got addicted to doing it . He couldn’t control himself . He was like a drug addict . It was not easy to get rid of a bad habit .
His health had started to deteriorate since, and he became ill-tempered . He couldn’t settle his mind on anything and became less confident .
Wang Yao called out in the clinic, “Next!”
“Doctor, I’ve been suffering from stomach pain,” a man in his 40s said .
“Tell me more about it,” Wang Yao said .
“Here . It’s like being stabbed by needles . ” He pointed at his abdominal area .
“Open your mouth and say ‘ah,’” Wang Yao said .
“Ahh!” The man opened his mouth . A gust of hot air and unpleasant odor came out of his mouth .
“Do you also have pain and burning sensation in your chest?” Wang Yao asked .
“Yes,” the patient said .
“I think you have severe stomach ulcer . Have you been to the hospital?” Wang Yao asked .
“No, the pain was not initially that bad, so I didn’t care too much . However, it recently has gotten really bad . My father came to see you a few weeks ago . He got better after taking several decoctions from you . So, I came to you,” the patient said .
“Do you drink and smoke?” Wang Yao asked .
He could smell alcohol on the man’s breath and saw cigarette stains on his teeth .
“Yes,” the man said .
“You must stop drinking and smoking,” Wang Yao said .
“What?” The man was shocked .
“What? Your health should be your top concern,” Wang Yao said . “I’ll prescribe a formula for you . ”

Wang Yao went to get the herbs from the herb cabinet . He needed astragalus, cassia twig, Paeonia lactiflora, forsythia, angelica, dandelion, Shangui, Philippine violet herb, and licorice . The formula could clear away heat and toxic materials and remove phlegm to promote blood circulation . It could treat stomach ulcers .
“I’ve written down the method of brewing the decoction for you,” Wang Yao said .
“OK, thank you,” the patient said . He left the clinic after paying the fee .
The next patient was from Wang Yao’s village and similar in age to him . e man suffered from headaches .
“You just caught a cold . You don’t need to take an herbal decoction . Just drink a lot of water and have some ginger soup before sleeping . You should be fine tomorrow,” Wang Yao said .
“OK,” the patient said .
By the time Wang Yao had seen all the patients, it was starting to get dark outside . He documented their symptoms before going home .
That night, he went back to Nanshan Hill . San Xian wagged his tail as he ran down to Wang Yao . He seemed very happy .
“San Xian, you put on weight again,” Wang Yao said .
It was very quiet on the hill . Wang Yao could only hear the sound of wind .
Swish! Swish! The snake came out when Wang Yao entered the herbal field .
“Hello, Xiaohei,” Wang Yao said .
He went into his cottage to turn on the light . There was a map of Nanshan Hill on the table . He wanted to place something outside the Spirit Gathering Battle Array to connect the hills at the east and west, possibly even further . He wanted to leave only one route to go down the hill . He needed trees and rocks .
Wang Yao didn’t go to bed until midnight .
It was gloomy and rainy the next day . Wang Yao left Nanshan Hill with an umbrella, even though he blocked the wind and rain using his Qi .
“Hmm?” He saw a familiar car on his way to the clinic . “Who would come in such a bad weather?”
“Hello, Dr . Wang,” Professor Lu said . He looked very tired .
“Hello, come in please . ” Wang Yao invited him into the clinic and made him a cup of tea . “You need to look after yourself . Otherwise, you’ll get sick . ”
“Look, I’ve discussed with Wen Wan’s family . They have agreed for me to take her to your clinic for treatment,” Professor Lu said .
“You can bring her here, but I can’t guarantee anything . ” Wang Yao was confident in the beginning that he could cure Wen Wan by fixing her damaged kidney . However, he wasn’t sure if he could save her now since she was beyond cure .
“I know,” Professor Lu said with a sigh . He felt much better after having a cup of tea . “Sorry to bother you . ”

“It’s fine . You need to find a place to have a good rest,” Wang Yao said with a smile .
“OK,” Professor Lu said .
He stayed in the clinic for a short while until Wang Yao had a visitor, Wang Mingbao .
“Hey, what brings you here? Where is Miss Han?” Wang Yao asked .
“Hey, don’t mention it . She wants to go back to Jia County again . She said she missed those kids . I’m going to go with her,” Wang Mingbao said .
“She doesn’t like Lianshan?” Wang Yao asked .
“Not really . I think she’s bored . Actually, I’m here to ask you for help,” Wang Mingbao seriously said .
“What can I do for you?” Wang Yao asked .
“I want her to get pregnant as soon as possible . Do you have any medication to make women pregnant?” Wang Mingbao asked .
“What?” Wang Yao was surprised .
“She will be occupied when we have kids . In addition, my parents really want to have grandchildren,” Wang Mingbao said .
“Well!” Wang Yao rubbed his forehead . “I don’t think any medication can help . ”
“I thought you were an extraordinary doctor,” Wang Mingbao said .
“I’ve never tried this,” Wang Yao said . “Plus, having a baby requires effort from both of you!”
“I don’t care . You are my best friend . You must help me,” Wang Mingbao said .
“Alright . Bring Miss Han here when you are available . By the way, you need to quit smoking and drinking if you want to have a baby,” Wang Yao said .
“OK, no problem,” Wang Mingbao said .
It was still raining outside . The spring rain was actually quite pleasant .
“Do you want to have lunch together?” Wang Mingbao asked .
“Sure, come to my house . I’ll let my mom know,” Wang Yao said .
“OK,” Wang Mingbao said .
He had a simple lunch at Wang Yao’s place and didn’t stay for long .
“Why did Mingbao leave in a hurry? He seemed to have something on his mind,” Zhang Xiuying said .
“Yeah, he wants a baby,” Wang Yao said .
“What?” Zhang Xiuying asked . “See? He’s going to have a baby, and you are still single!”
Wang Yao suddenly realized he said something he was not supposed to say .
Fortunately, Zhang Xiuying didn’t talk too much about it .
It was still raining in the afternoon . The sky had begun to look gloomy .
In Dali, it was almost time for the Han brothers to take their youngest brother to see the King Pharmacist .
“Brother, tomorrow will be the seventh day,” Han Zhigao said .
“Have you arranged everything for the trip?” Han Xing asked .
“Yes,” Han Zhigao said .
Their youngest brother had woken up, but he still couldn’t speak .
“I’ll take you to see the King Pharmacist tomorrow . It’s a long trip . You might get really tired,” Han Xing said .
The King Pharmacist’s village was fairly far from Dali . It would take them hours to get there by car . The last part of the trip was on uneven muddy road, so it wouldn’t be an easy drive . Even healthy people wouldn’t like it, let alone a very sick person .
“I’ve booked a recreational vehicle,” Han Zhigao said .
“Good,” Han Xing said .
The 70-year-old King Pharmacist was staring at Wang Yao’s decoctions in the small village in south Yunnan . He had been trying to figure out the components of Wang Yao’s decoctions using all the methods he could think of for six days . However, he failed .
Why? the King Pharmacist wondered .
