“Uncle, if you have something to say, please do so . ”
“It’s OK . I’m really alright . ” Wang Yilong waved his hand . “I just want to thank you . ”
“There is no need . ” Wang Yao smiled .
“Ah!” Wang Yilong and Wang Zecheng left the clinic .
There was a sigh .
Wang Yao heard the sigh the old man made when he went out . Why did he sigh?
“Dad, what did you want to say to Wang Yao just now?”
“Zecheng, you must have spent too much on my disease . ”
“Well, not much . Wang Yao said that we were all from the village and you were his uncle, so the medicines he prescribes are cheaper . ”
“I always feel that I owe him a favor . What about giving it up?”
“We cannot . I have asked Wang Yao . Your disease is almost gone . You can recover from it by taking a few more medications . At this time, we can’t give up no matter what . ”
“Really?” the old man asked .
“Of course, why would I lie to you?” Wang Zecheng asked with a laugh .
“OK, I’ll continue to take the medicines . ”
“Yes, that’s right . ”
The father and son talked as they went home together .
The old man returned to his room and looked out the window . His grandson was playing in the yard .
When he was in the clinic, he hid something from Wang Yao . In the past few days, he found blood in his stool . There were even bloodstains in the sputum he coughed out . He felt that it was not a good sign, but he did not tell his son about it . He was afraid that his son worry . For a few months, his son seemed to have become a good person . He had turned from a notoriously bad son in the village to a good son . In general, this made him very happy . It was what he wanted for a long time . During this time, his son was working hard . He left early and returned late . He must have suffered a lot and become a bag of bones . Since the old man was no longer fit, he could not add income to the family . Instead, he needed to take all those medicines, which was a heavy burden . He wanted to reduce the family’s stress .
Ah!
He sighed again .
Elderly people like me are useless .
“How is Dad’s condition?” Wang Zecheng’s wife softly asked when her husband returned .
“Not good . ” Wang Zecheng gently shook his head .
“What should we do?”
“Wang Yao said he would change the prescription . ”
“Will it work?” his wife asked .
“We’ll give it a try,” Wang Zecheng said . “Who can guarantee that such a disease can be cured?”
“My dad doesn’t know anything about this yet . You have to pay attention and not reveal a word to him,” Wang Zecheng advised .
“Don’t worry . I know . ”
Until now, his father knew nothing about it . He thought he just had a common cold or small ailment . Also, he had been taking the medicines prescribed by Wang Yao and did not feel seriously unwell . He did not think about in that regard .
“Does it cost more?”
“I haven’t asked him in detail . ”
“Take the time to ask him . ”
“Well, we have to get my dad treated no matter how much we spend!”
In the clinic, Wang Yao was thinking about Wang Yilong’s disease, which had spread . In the later stage, the medicines used in the past only temporarily suspended the process . They had to be changed . To cure such an illness, which was a recognized terminal illness, ordinary medicinal materials had no effect . Spiritual grasses were required .
Malignant tumors .
Licao removed the gangrene .
Cizhan cleared the heat, detoxified, and removed the sarcoma .
These were the drugs he had used so far to treat tumors .
Lingshanji dispelled the evil, drove away evil spirits, and relieved muscle pain .
Aniseed tree root cleared the heat, detoxified, and removed stasis and pain .
The main effect of these two medicines was analgesia because this disease made patients feel unbearable pain . The other function was to detoxify and dispel evil .
According to the theory of Chinese medicine, a malignant tumor was a type of evil and fever poison .
The function of the four kinds of spirit grass was important . He also needed medicines that could consolidate the basis and strengthen the old man’s body . Ganoderma lucidum, shanjing, and ginseng were useful but only a little of them could be enough . Other herbs were needed to reconcile the other ones and eliminate any negative reactions . Liaocaoguiyuan could not be more suitable in this regard . Licorice also had that effect, but it was still an ordinary herb . It performed much worse than spiritual grasses .
Is it enough?
Wang Yao was thinking while recording the prescription in his notebook .
At least six kinds of spirit grass were used for this medical prescription .
It should be OK with the herbs .
Finally, the prescription was finished .
Licao, Cizhan, Lingshanji, Aniseed tree root, Ganoderma lucidum, shanjing, and ginseng…
I’ll boil the medicine soup tonight .
There were not many patients in the clinic . There were only two in the morning and none in the afternoon .
It was a free day for him .
In the afternoon, when Wang Yao closed the door to the clinic, he met Jia Zizai and Hu Mei, who were running toward Dongshan Mountain .
“Mr . Wang, good afternoon . ”
“Going for a run?”
“Oh, yes we are . ”
“That is good . ”
After greeting, Wang Yao slowly walked home .
“Why don’t I ever see Mr . Wang running?” Hu Mei asked with a smile .
“Mr . Wang practices on Nanshan Hill early in the morning,” Jia Zizai said .
“Nanshan?”
“Yes, Nanshan . I haven’t been there yet,” Jia Zizai said .
“Brother has probably been there . ”
“It is a place for Mr . Wang to practice . I heard that there are some tactical formations there . ”
“Tactical formations?”
“Yes, the kind that once you get in, you can’t get out . ”
“That’s amazing . ”
“I haven’t seen it, but I heard about it from Brother . By the way, I’ll show you the woods there under the mountain . ”
The two slowed their pace as the approached the woods at the foot of Nanshan Hill . They never used to come there because they knew the rules . Since he was Wang Yao’s disciple, he could now go there with his wife .
“Go ahead and give it a try . ”
The two of them entered the woods . There was no obvious path under their feet . They went deep into the woods .
“Well, look back,” Jia Zizai said with a smile on his face .
Hu Mei turned around and found that the woods were still behind her . Through the woods, she saw the situation outside . Nothing seemed wrong .
“Nothing seems unusual . What’s wrong?”
“Try to go out and see what happens . ”
Hu Mei walked back along the way she came . After walking a dozen steps, she found the problem .
Oh no!
She turned around and found that Jia Zizai was still standing there . She walked toward him, which was less than 32 feet away, but found that the distance from him was getting farther .
How is this happening?
She stood looking down at the road under her feet . She looked up at Jia Zizai in front of her . As her gaze turned to the trees around her, she tentatively walked two steps and marked the trees she passed by . She continued to move forward . It turned out that she was making a circle around a tree .
“Turn right when encountering a poplar tree and go straight when encountering eucalyptus . ” Jia Zizai’s voice rang out .
Hu Mei proceeded according to his method and eventually came to his side .
“How are you feeling?”
“It’s amazing!” Hu Mei sighed .
“Mr . Wang is so amazing!”
“We can’t go any further,” Jia Zizai said . “The formation under the mountain is powerful, so the one on the mountain will definitely be more magical . Let’s go to Dongshan . ”
The two of them exited the woods and walked to Dongshan Mountain along a small path . They came across Zhong Liuchuan, who was practicing .
“Brother . ”
“You are here too . ”
“Yes, we are out to move around . ”
“That is good . ”
They practiced and exercised on the mountain .
Dongshan and Nanshan were close to each other . One could see Nanshan Hill, but one could not see Wang Yao’s cabin or his herbal field .
“Does Mr . Wang stay on the hill at night?”
“As long as he is in the village, he basically lives on the mountain at night . ”
A shriek could be heard . A goshawk was hovering in the sky .
“What a big eagle!”
“That is one of the mountain’s three generals,” Zhong Liuchuan said .
“General?”
“Yeah, Mr . Wang said they are mountain guards that are very psychic . ”
“What are the other two?”
“A dog that looks like a majestic lion and a snake . But I have never seen it,” Jia Zizai said .
“Mr . Wang is extraordinary, and these pets are extraordinary . ”
“Hey, that’s not right,” Zhong Liuchuan hurriedly said . “Mr . Wang intentionally said that they are not pets . They are his friends . ”
