After the fire was extinguished, the air was filled with a smell of sour rot and burning, I asked the people around to bury the charred corpse, and asked an acquaintance to take the vegetables I brought to the clinic, and then immediately went to Li Youtian's house.
Li Youtian and Zhang Xiaofa are my elementary school classmates, but I have a closer relationship with Li Youtian, often played together as a child. Zhang Xiaofa's character is a bit misbehaving, I heard that after graduating from junior high school in the outside of the blind for a few years, made some friends, and I do not know how to play with Li Youtian later to a piece.
I learned the art of these years, has been nestled inside the clinic, in addition to the normal consultation, basically no human interaction.
When I arrived at Li Youtian's house, I saw Li Youtian's father running out in a hurry, saw me and froze for a moment, then hurriedly took my hand and said, "Oh, Dr. Lin, why are you here? I was looking for you, my family Youtian seems to be sick!"
I said, Uncle Li took out a cigarette and handed it to me, I waved my hand and said no, and asked, "What is Yuda's condition now?"
He said sullenly: "The bastard went to Zhang Xiaofa's house last night to play cards, did not sleep all night! In the morning, he came back and said his stomach hurts, I do not know if he ate badly outside, and is pulling and vomiting, and then ... alas, I can not say clearly, you go to my house to see for yourself!"
"He did not sleep all night ah ...," I mumbled.
"It's not!" Uncle Li said complainingly, "It's all the fault of that Zhang Xiaofa, bringing down my family Youtian! You know how honest Yutian used to be, but now he drinks, smokes, and plays cards, and he's not looking for a job. If he gets sick again, how can we live?"
I said to him, "Uncle Li, don't worry, I'll go and see him first."
Pushed open the door of the Li family, they heard a clatter from the tank in the courtyard, the tank was full of water, there were water stains everywhere around, something was soaking in it.
Uncle Li was so angry that he slapped his thighs, "you deflated calf! Dr. Lin came to see you, come out slickly!"
Only to see a head in the water, Li Youtian wiped a handful of water on his face, greeted me with a smile: "Miao Miao, you're here?"
"What 'Miao Miao', call Dr. Lin!" Uncle Li scolded me with a glare.
I laughed: "It's okay, we've been playing together since we were kids, just call me by my nickname."
"That won't do, you're not the same as you used to be. Youtian, one more 'Miao Miao' and I'll break your legs!" The latter sentence was said by Uncle Li to Li Youtian, the village's respect for witch doctors was a tradition passed down from generation to generation.
At this time, Li Youtian's mother came out with tea, greeted me and said, "Dr. Lin is here, sit down, have a sip of tea first."
At this time, the couple obviously did not realize the seriousness of Li Youtian's condition, and probably thought that Li Youtian, who was soaking in the water, was playing with them.
The disease process of augmentation has seventy-seventy-nine days, the first week of change is not yet obvious, to the back of the fear that it will become inhuman and ghostly, the average person is unable to withstand the proliferation of augmentation cells, the end result is death.
My grandmother once looked at a person with augmentation disease, but unfortunately that person was terminally ill, and finally could not be saved. Since then my grandmother has been asking around for ways to save the augmentation disease, but got a recipe for seven stones.
I was polite with Aunt Li, then deliberately said to Li Youtian: "How do you soak in the water, today is not hot, you are not afraid of catching a cold?" In fact, I was asking about his physical condition.
Li Youtian's wet head floating up and down in the water tank, he said with a smile: "Not cold, it's comfortable! After I vomited in the morning, I felt like my body was on fire, how can not be strong, and then soaked in the water to feel comfortable."
He said, he sank down again, nose bubbling, then floated up again and said, "I feel like sleeping in it."
Aunt Li said with distress, "This bear child, how can always soak in the cold water? The fever is not so receding, it's nonsense, hurry up and get out!"
Li Youtian started to squirm, "I don't, I'm comfortable inside."
I went forward and said, "Come, I'll give you a pulse to see!"
Li Youtian obediently stretched out his arm on the slippery rim of the tank, I used three fingers on his pulse inch off the ruler three, quietly feel a while ...
After a while, the side of Uncle Li will eagerly ask the results.
I frowned slightly, Li Youtian's pulse became completely Yin pulse, but it was beating very strong, no sign of weakness at all.
I felt bad, I'm afraid his physique has changed!
Although ordinary people also have yin and yang qi in the body, but the living to yang dominant, regardless of men and women, yang dominant, regardless of eating medicine sleeping exercise, are mainly to supplement yang qi.
And Li Youtian's entire pulse became a Yin pulse, he is the same as those Yin body demons, to ingest Yin Qi is the main, so soak in the water feel comfortable and comfortable, out can not stand, this is by no means an unusual heat illness.
Seeing that I was silent, Uncle Li became more and more anxious and asked, "Doctor Lin, in the end what is the disease you just say it, we can stand it."
Aunt Li looked at me with a worried face, "You Tian is young, there will not be any serious illness, right?"
I withdrew my hand and said, "This disease is not a matter of size, it is relatively rare. The disease comes from the mouth, you Tian, you and small hair eat that thing, in fact, is called aiao!"
"Huh? What is the auger?" The family asked in shock.
I probably explained, Uncle Li and Aunt Li's face instantly became ugly.
Uncle Li was so angry that he slapped Li Youtian on the neck and scolded, "Bear child, who told you to eat! That kind of things of unknown origin dare to eat, not poison you are lucky!"
Li Youtian and half-submerged his head into the water spitting bubbles, said vaguely, "It's not on me, it's Little Hair said bet, eat a bite to give me 50 yuan, I tasted a little, just a little ..."
Zhang Xiaofa does like to bet, he used to bet with people to fight, but also drank paint, carried by his family to my grandmother's clinic to see the good.
Uncle Li is even more angry, "I have said how many times, do not play with Zhang Xiaofa kind of two yozi, now can be good, right?"
Uncle Li this is completely is to play on the issue, Aunt Li heart child, said: "child his father, you say a few words less, first look at the disease how to cure ... Lin doctor, now want to write a prescription?"
I said, "There is no hurry, I will go to Xiaofa's house again to take a look."
At this time, Li Youtian yelled, "I'm hungry, I just threw up, my stomach is empty, I want to eat fish."
Aunt Li was stunned and said, "Fish? Don't you always hate fish?"
"No, I especially want to eat fish now, I want to eat raw fish, especially fish eyes, fish intestines, fish bubbles and so on, just thinking about it makes my mouth water! Mom, quickly buy me some fresh fish!" Speaking, Li Youtian even drooled, as if he had committed some kind of addiction, his expression was odd.
The couple looked at their eccentric son, a little frightened, slowly turned to me, as if asking for advice.
I thought about it and said, "It doesn't matter if you eat fish, don't put any seasoning such as onion and ginger, steam a half-cooked for him to eat!"
"No!" Li Youtian fiercely slapped the water surface in protest, "I want to eat raw, raw! No steaming! Why don't I go down to the river and catch the fish myself?"
Uncle Li was furious and smacked him hard again, "How dare you talk back to me? Listen well to Dr. Lin, I'm going to send him off and buy you a fish by the way!"
