When he came to the clinic, he started to explain the essence of Taoism, the theory of immortality, and Taoism’s Tan-Do . He cited and quoted from several sources to support his thesis, which was closely reasoned and well-argued . Toward the end, he even talked about immortal pills and said that he had the prescription of immortal pills in hand but a few herbs were missing .
“Hello Doctor, please take a look at my son and see if he is suffering from paranoia,” said the middle-aged man who had brought the thin-looking young man . “He is always thinking of cultivation and becoming an immortal . ”
“How long has this situation been going on for?” Wang Yao asked .
“It has been more than a year . Starting from last spring, he and his classmates went to the South . After he came back, he became odd and bizarre . All day, he would just fantasize about becoming an immortal of Taoism . ” The middle-aged man sighed and continued . “In the beginning, I just took it as if he had said it casually but gradually found something wrong with him . He was reading some Taoist books all day and also bought some other rubbish . He tried to create medicine and pills by himself and almost died of poisoning twice . Fortunately, I found him just in time and took him to see a psychiatrist . They said it was a delusion . They suggested that he be put in a mental hospital for compulsory treatment . I was reluctant to take him in, so I just kept him at home all the time . I have also found many doctors to treat him, but his condition has not improved at all . It has become more serious . I brought him here for you to take a look at him . ”
“I am not sick,” the young man said .
“Why do you cultivate?” Wang Yao asked
“To be able to live forever,” the young man firmly said .
“Where is your master from?” Wang Yao asked .
“Chang Chun Zi,” the young man replied .
“Qiu Chu Ji?” Wang Yao’s first thought was Qiu Chu Ji, the Qiu Chu Ji from the Quanzhen sect in Chang Chun Zi .
“No!” The man waved his hand .
“Who is it then?” Wang Yao asked .
“Hha, he’s not important enough to tell the outside world,” the young man said with a smile .
Although he was thin, his eyes were very sharp .
“I’ll take your pulse . ” Wang Yao stretched out his hand and grasped the young man’s wrist .
“I am not sick!” The young man struggled, but like a chick, he was firmly held down by Wang Yao .
“Well, there’s nothing seriously wrong with his body . There is a certain amount of toxin accumulated in his internal organs . It is related to the so-called pills he has taken . As for his mental health?” Wang Yao looked at the young man with a smile . “That is a big problem!”
His illness was quite similar to that of Chen Ying’s younger brother . He was a martial arts man with a brain full of swords and fighting . He was also a man with a mind full of immortal cultivation methods . It was a deep obsession .
This young man was different from Chen Zhou, who had a problem with the meridians of his brain . He had no problem with the meridians of his brain . His illness was not real . It was all in his mind . After listening to the father’s description, he could sit for hours meditating and chanting scriptures . Since he was able to sit still for hours, he was not particularly manic .
“Interesting!” Wang Yao remarked with a smile . It was the first time he had seen such an illness .
“Dr . Wang, what do you think of him?” the father asked .
“He has too much obsession,” Wang Yao replied .
“Obsession?” the father asked .
“What obsession are you talking about?” the young man asked . “You guys don’t understand anything . ”
The thought to cultivate and find a way to become an immortal had already been planted in his mind . It was like planting seeds in the soil . It had already sprouted deep roots and grown into a tree trunk . The tree trunk was not like the ones in reality . One could not just chop them off if they wanted to get rid of it . It was extremely difficult to chop down the “tree of obsession” in his mind because it was a world of spiritual thinking . It could only be thought and gotten . It was unspeakable .
“Dr . Wang, what do you think we can do?” the father asked .
“You are not locals, right?” Wang Yao asked .
“We are from the provincial city,” the father said . “We heard from friends that you are highly skilled in medicine, so we came to have a look . ”
“His condition is very special,” Wang Yao said . “I need to think about how to treat him . ”
This was his first time encountering a patient who had no organic diseases and was just a hypochondriac .
“Since you are a man of cultivation, how should I address you?” Wang Yao asked the young man .
“The Breeze,” the young man replied .
“The breeze is blowing slowly, but the waves are not good,” Wang Yao said .
“Exactly,” the young man said .
“What is longevity?” Wang Yao asked .
“For a long time, heaven and earth lived together, eternal and immortal,” the young man replied .
“What is the use of longevity?” Wang Yao asked .
“To be at ease and carefree,” the young man answered .
“What else can you do besides cultivating?” Wang Yao asked .
“Alchemy,” the young man replied .
“How is it going?” Wang Yao asked .
“OK . ” The young man shrugged .
“How will you live without your parents?” Wang Yao asked
“By living on the wind and the dew,” the young man said .
Wang Yao laughed loudly .
“Why not?” the young man asked .
“Living on wind and the dew?” The doubt could be seen on Wang Yao’s face .
“A man of practice does not belong to the outside world,” the young man said .
“Alright, you guys can leave . ” Wang Yao waved his hand .
“Doctor, what about his illness?” the father asked .
“Let me think about it,” Wang Yao said . “You guys can leave your contact information . I’ll get in touch when I have thought it through . ”
He did not have a good way to treat this strange patient .
“Sure . ” The middle-aged man could not help but showed disappointment on his face . He had come with hope and traveled thousands of miles . He had not expected such an outcome .
He thought, Can my son really not be saved?
The family left the clinic just as Pan Jun came in from outside .
“Master, is that young man a Taoist?” he asked .
“Yes, he thinks he is a Taoist,” Wang Yao replied .
“He thinks?” Pan Jun asked .
“His illness is very strange,” Wang Yao said . “He has a deep obsession . He wants to become an immortal through cultivation . ”
“What? Is he nuts?!” Pan Jun was stunned .
“He should belong to that category,” Wang Yao said . “His illness and strangeness have no change in terms of substance . It is purely in terms of mental and spiritual . ”
“It’s a big world and has all sorts of weird and amazing things,” Pan Jun said . “When the forest is big, there will always be a few crooked trees . ”
“Hha, his illness is very strange indeed,” Wang Yao said . “I haven’t come up with any suitable way to treat him . ”
“Master, I have read almost all the books you gave me last time,” Pan Jun said .
“Is that so?” Wang Yao asked . “Let me test you . ”
“Sure,” Pan Jun said .
Wang Yao asked some random questions, mostly in terms of medical science and pharmacology . Pan Jun answered them smoothly . He also had his own opinions . He had worked as a doctor for many years, so he had encountered many patients in the emergency department . He was very rich with experience .
“Mmm, very good . I’ll give you some more books . By the way, you can take a look at this book . ” Wang Yao handed him the “Sang Yao Medical Book” written by Sang Guzi . “This book was written by an old friend of mine . He is a master of Xing Lin and a famous traditional Chinese medicine doctor . This is a combination of his decades of practice theory and experience . The contents are very good and worth reading carefully . ”
Pan Jun took the book . He flipped through it and saw Sang Guzi’s message on the front page . “Sang Guzi?”
“Have you heard of him?” Wang Yao asked .
“I’ve heard you mention him,” Pan Jun said .
“Special thanks? Master, do you have some credit for the contents inside?” Pan Jun asked .
“I had just mentioned something,” Wang Yao said . “It is not much credit . Take a good look at the book . ”
At noon, Wang Yao asked Pan Jun to stay for a meal at his home .
“You have not come for quite some time,” Wang Fenghua said .
“Yes, Uncle, I’ve been busy lately,” Pan Jun said .
He had been really busy recently . The hospital was in the midst of its annual evaluation of professional titles . Pan Jun was more than likely to get it this year .
“Title? Intermediate?” Wang Yao asked .
“No, I want to try for the deputy senior ranks,” Pan Jun replied .
“If you need my help, just let me know,” Wang Yao said .
“I’m all prepared, so there’s no big problem . ” Pan Jun said . “I’m just putting more emphasis on participation this time . ”
“If you can be selected, try your best,” Wang Yao said . “Is it in the city or the province?”
“The files will probably be sent to the province,” Pan Jun replied . “As for the intermediate ones, the relevant departments in the city will be able to evaluate them . Master, are you not going to try?”
“I’ll pass,” Wang Yao said with a smile .
He was an individual, not a member of the staff . That title would not do much for him .
After lunch, Pan Jun accompanied Wang Fenghua to smoke a couple of cigarettes before he returned to the clinic with Wang Yao .
“Master, our dean is still thinking of you,” Pan Jun said .
“He’s just thinking of my medicine, right?” Wang Yao asked .
“Yes, you don’t know this, but you are a famous doctor in Lianshan County now,” Pan Jun said . “There are several people in our hospital who have suggested that they come here for treatment!”
“Go to your hospital? Forget it,” Wang Yao replied . Pan Jun had once proposed this to him before . “I can’t stand that kind of constraint . ”
“It’s got to feel more comfortable to be at home than in a hospital,” Pan Jun said .
Wang Yao brewed a pot of tea . “Have some tea . ”
“Thank you, Master,” Pan Jun said .
“Are you staying healthy?” Wang Yao asked .
“I’m trying to,” Pan Jun replied .
“Work is important, but your health is more important . Drink more tea,” Wang Yao said .
Since the morning, he had felt that Pan Jun had something on his mind . It was likely something about his work . Wang Yao asked him a few questions, but Pan Jun didn’t say anything clearly . It would be bad to continue asking .
“Yes, you are right,” Pan Jun said .
As they were chatting, Zhong Liuchuan entered the yard .
“Nice, I was just brewing tea,” Wang Yao said .
“I’m in for a treat . ” Zhong Liuchuan said with a smile . He poured himself a cup of tea and filled it up for Wang Yao and Pan Jun . “Sir, Jia Zizai called me just now . He wants to visit you . ”
“What’s the matter?” Wang Yao asked . “Is it still because of the Dao matter?”
“Yes,” Zhong Liuchuan said .
“There’s no need for that,” Wang Yao said .
“He’s already on his way,” Zhong Liuchuan said .
“Since he’s coming, he’s a guest,” Wang Yao said .
“Shall I tell him?” Zhong Liuchuan asked .
“OK,” Wang Yao said .
An hour later, Jia Zizai drove to the clinic with Hu Mei . He said, “Sorry for intruding, Sir . ”
“Come in and have some tea . ” Wang Yao was waiting for them in the courtyard . There was a pot of tea and a pile of dried fruit . “Try it . These chestnuts have just been picked . ”
“Thank you,” Hu Mei said .
“Mmm, they taste great,” Jia Zizai said . “We have come to thank you this time, Sir . ”
“Is the matter settled?” Wang Yao asked .
“It should be,” Jia Zizai said .
Zhang Wei had disappeared for many days, and that matter had never been exposed . Perhaps his conscience had indeed been found before he died . He had cleaned up and destroyed all the blackmail materials, leaving nothing that could be held against them .
“What are your plans for the future?” Wang Yao asked .
“I’m going to live an ordinary life,” Jia Zizai said . “I’ve discussed it with Hu Mei . I’m going to choose a good day and get married this year . We’ll find a quiet place to have children and live an ordinary life . ”
