Merchant and doctor

Chapter 1151 Pond Mud
Bian Mu took a DR film for the truck driver, including the frontal view, lateral view, and lateral reduction view... the situation was quite bad.

"You are 51 years old this year, right?" Bian Mu corrected himself casually while checking the details of the film through the light box.

“I just had my birthday. I’m 53 now!” the truck driver replied with a smile.

"You have to change your career! Otherwise... it will be very troublesome in the future. Not only will you suffer, but you will also drag down your family. You are in your early 50s, and your kidney water is still sufficient. In layman's terms, you are basically fine. You can eat and sleep, and your brain may not even have a mild cerebral infarction. Your blood pressure, blood lipids, blood sugar... everything is fine. Who would have thought that you would be paralyzed in bed. Tell me, will your family be unlucky with you?! On the surface, you are quite manly and family-oriented, but what is the result? How can your wife and children face you?! Have you ever thought about it?" Bian Mu warned the truck driver calmly.

"Ah?! Is it that serious?!" the truck driver asked in shock.

"Look, let's look from the bottom up. In this area, the sacrococcygeal thoracic process is so serious! Looking upward, these two segments have lumbar vertebral slippage; further up, there is lumbar disc herniation. In this area, the vertebral nucleus is almost ruptured. Further up, to put it simply, it is obvious that the lumbar vertebrae and cervical vertebrae are competing for territory and nutrition. The lumbar vertebrae are cervicalizing, and the cervical vertebrae are aging and moving downward. You must have been to many hospitals. I would like to ask, which orthopedic doctor would dare to see you?! Of course, I'm saying that if you don't change your career..." As he spoke, Bian Mu sketched a few simple diagrams for the truck driver on a blank medical record paper.

The truck driver was terrified! He didn't dare to say a word for a long time, and sweat had already broken out on his forehead!

"You have your advantages. You don't smoke or drink. You don't even watch a video. You live frugally. But... you drive thousands of miles across cities all day long. You must have met a lot of interesting people over the years... Just because I don't ask about something doesn't mean you haven't done it, don't you understand? Chinese medicine pulse diagnosis is much more mysterious than you think. If it weren't for those weird people, could you risk your life to travel long distances? In any weather? Are you so noble? Do you want me to explain it more clearly?!" At the end, Bian Mu's tone became increasingly gloomy.

This time, the truck driver was scared to his core!

The truck driver's face gradually began to sweat. "Bian's Clinic" was equipped with central air conditioning. There were very few small clinics in the city that had central air conditioning installed. The temperature was neither too cold nor too hot, and people would not sweat easily indoors.

Bian Mu is a kind person and he always keeps his harsh words to a point. After all, it is not easy for truck drivers to work in wind and rain all day long. People from their class have limited cultural level and their humanistic qualities are often very weak. It will take them a while to digest some of the truths of the world.

Bian Mu had to give him enough time to understand.

After sitting in the outpatient clinic for a whole morning, Bian Mu was also tired! Taking this opportunity, he leaned back on the chair and took a breath.

The clinic suddenly became much quieter.

At this moment, a fashionable lady in her early thirties walked in from the door. She looked unfamiliar and it was probably her first time to come to the clinic.

Nurse Ye had nothing left to do, so she just had to wait for Bian Mu to see off the last patient before she went off work. Seeing a lady with extraordinary temperament walking into the door, she hurriedly greeted her with a smile.

"We are almost off work. Are you on the afternoon number? Do you have something urgent to do? Can you add another number?"

"Colleagues! My teacher is Professor Meng Shulan." The woman responded rather reservedly. The smile on her face seemed a bit forced. It was obvious that this fashionable lady in front of her must be quite arrogant.

"Ouch! Excuse me, excuse me! Please come this way!" As she said this, Nurse Ye prepared to make her a cup of fragrant tea.

"Don't bother. Just a few words and I'll be back. Go back and do your thing. I'll see the doctor in a bit." The woman was quite polite at this point.

Bian Mu had long ears, and he had already heard most of the conversation between the two while sitting there. He smiled and ignored the woman. Nurse Ye finally made a cup of good tea for the woman, and the tea was fragrant. The woman sat there and thanked her.

At this time, Zhang Jinsi also took a few glances at the woman. He guessed that this fashionable disciple in front of him was here to call for punishment on behalf of his master. He was very curious and wanted to see how Boss Bian would respond.

"Doctor Bian! You are really an extraordinary person, I admire you! Then let's change your career! Anyway, my car loan has been paid off for several years... Then... how can I treat my disease?" At this time, the truck driver finally changed his mind.

"You! Calm down first! A large number of wetland vegetable gardens have been built in the south city. Almost no pesticides are used and they are green and environmentally friendly. The prices of those vegetables and fruits are not low. Considering your physical condition, it's best to find a job there first. If your feet don't get pricked easily, I suggest you go barefoot when working. After about half a year, you can come back for a follow-up visit. How about that?" Seeing that the truck driver's attitude had softened, Bian Mu smiled and made a suggestion.

After hearing this, the truck driver looked obviously unhappy.

"Doctor Bian! I am not a migrant worker. My family is from our city. My father and uncle were all drivers for a fleet, so... I started working in the fields when I was 16. It was a bit..." Well! The truck driver was obviously resistant.

"Hehe... then... let me ask you, when you sleep at night, especially on rainy days, or when it's windy and the weather is bad, your left foot, from the toe to the ankle, will shake a few times from time to time after 22 p.m., and it basically doesn't listen to you. It shakes involuntarily, right?" Bian Mu's guess was quite specific.

Upon hearing this, the truck driver showed a look of surprise and nodded slightly involuntarily.

Listening to the conversation between the two was quite interesting. Meng Shulan's senior student stood up gently and moved a distance closer to where Bian Mu was sitting. Out of curiosity, she wanted to see what magical powers the so-called great doctor Bian had.

"You have a bad temper. Once you get angry, no matter who the other person is, your back will become very stiff from your right shoulder all the way down to the hip area. Moreover, no matter what kind of movement you try to improve, it will lock your back tightly like a wire until you are almost relieved. Besides, in the past twenty years or so, you can't peel edamame, pick leeks, or repair something at home... you can't do it while squatting. Your hands and arms are so stiff that you don't seem to be yourself. You have to sit on a small stool to barely be able to work for a while. Am I right?" In one breath, Bian Mu guessed several manifestations of the other party's illnesses.

The truck driver was completely subdued by Bian Mu at that time.

The student of Professor Meng who was standing not far away also showed a trace of disbelief on her face, her brows were slightly furrowed, and her beautiful eyebrows looked even more like black smoke.

"Doctor Bian! I will obey you in everything."

"Haha... Doctors can't force a certain treatment on patients, no matter how good it is for you! I've been to the vegetable garden in South City. The pond mud there is actually a very unique Chinese medicinal herb that is just right for your condition. Got it?! People have to be willing to sell it to you if you pay them!"

After hearing this, the truck driver's forehead finally relaxed.

"It's all up to you. I'll cooperate with whatever you say."

"Then go over there and ask for a job! Before signing the contract, bring some pond mud over here. I'll let you sign a labor contract with them if I say yes."

"Okay, okay! Thank you, Dr. Bian!" After saying that, the truck driver got up and left in a hurry.
