Chapter 2368 Aunt Xue has contracted a serious illness
Traditional Chinese medicine experts have a much stronger understanding of human nature than ordinary people, which can be considered a special perk that comes with their professional skills!
How could Bian Mu's eyes escape Qi Yuewei's subtle emotional fluctuations? In a flash, Bian Mu guessed that she was probably picking on him. There was no other reason than that even now, he, who was as meticulous as a hair, had never bought Qi Yuewei a pair of shoes that fit perfectly in every way!
"There's nothing I can do! Everyone's so busy these days! From a traditional etiquette perspective, I really haven't done a good job. I really need to arrange a time to go out with her sometime. The Spring Equinox has passed, and Mom and Xiaoyue should get a new pair of shoes..." Thinking of this, a sense of guilt arose in Bian Mu's heart, and he immediately had the idea of ​​taking a break for a while.

After calming himself down, Bian Mu explained the situation to Engineer Xue.

"Look at these soles. The most obvious wear is concentrated on the inside of the arch, while the heel and the outside of the arch are almost brand new... On the bright side, you have a pretty good sense of balance when you walk. Most ordinary women can't maintain this posture in their entire lives. By the way, you must have practiced dance in your student days, right?" Bian Mu asked with a smile as she finished speaking.

"I remember... it should have started in the third grade of elementary school! Actually, I wasn't very interested in dance training. If it weren't for my mom constantly urging me, and also because my cousin works in this field professionally, and she has a daughter who is about my age, I would have persisted until around the first year of college. Later, I decided to study English and go abroad, so I stopped completely. I didn't expect that you could make such an accurate judgment based on such a small amount of dance background. It's truly admirable!" At this point, Engineer Xue's tone became noticeably more natural, and he no longer treated Bian Mu as an outsider.

“I once cured a special patient whose family was much better off than yours. They spent countless resources to treat his illness. Your condition has almost no logical connection to his, but you are similar in one aspect: you both lack a certain grasp of the real focus of your lives. In the future, I suggest that when you are living your life, you should not do that... I don’t know if you mind me saying this?” As she spoke, Bian Mu glanced at Qi Yuewei, who was sitting not far away listening to their conversation.

"Just say what you want to say! Stop stammering..." Qi Yuewei interrupted first.

"Well... in daily life, you tend to put on a bit of an air... to put it simply, you're particularly conscious of your personal image in public, for example, you have to act like a lady from a wealthy family in every gesture... If this happened to others, at most it would just be a bit tiring, like wearing a mask when going out, but it generally wouldn't cause any obvious medical consequences. But you're different... your Qi is sinking, and the virtual Qi that's been built into your body is difficult to completely eliminate. As the most intelligent of all beings, under normal circumstances, three sets of Qi are definitely enough for women. If that sounds difficult, let me give you an example: normally, a person has 28 to 32 teeth in their mouth, 14 on the top and 14 on the bottom." "You have 16 teeth, but in our daily practice, we often encounter patients with 34 or 36 teeth. The oral cavity is only so big, and the volume of the alveolar bone is almost the same. Extra teeth can only crowd haphazardly in the middle, and eventually, they will most likely have to be extracted! Also, many people have a sixth finger since childhood, and they usually choose to have it surgically removed, not for any other reason than that it's useless and gets in the way! We encounter similar situations quite often. Your virtual energy is definitely not something ethereal; it really exists in your body, and it's already genuinely affecting your health. Theoretically speaking, it must be removed!" Bian Mu explained in one breath, trying to make the matter as clear as possible.

"I see... So it must be quite difficult to treat?" After pondering for a moment, Engineer Xue asked.

"Let's take it one step at a time. Some things... can't be forced. In the first stage, let's clear up the blockages below your knees. Acupuncture is the most effective treatment for this. In the near future, go to Dr. Mu for massage therapy. When you feel relaxed and have no more adverse reactions when using this kind of physiotherapy device, then come to the clinic to see me. We'll discuss an acupuncture treatment plan and try to unload the burden on the middle and upper parts of the lung meridian as much as possible. You need to know that since ancient times, the heart and lungs have been connected. Respiratory diseases will eventually increase the burden on the heart, and something will happen sooner or later."

"Understood... Thank you for your trouble!"

"No need to be polite! Anyway, there are no outsiders here right now. From a medical perspective, I still want to say a few more words... For you, food, clothing, shelter, transportation, and social interactions, if you feel uncomfortable about anything, no matter how much it affects you in a worldly sense, it's best to stay away from it. Otherwise... you're destined to live an unhappy life for most of your life... That's all I have to say. Whether you listen or not is up to you. It's getting late, and I have to go out for clinics this afternoon. See you later!" After saying goodbye to Qi Yuewei, Bian Mu picked up his backpack and took his leave.

Slightly annoyed, Qi Yuewei didn't ask Bian Mu if he had eaten before coming, and with a gloomy face, she and Engineer Xue took Bian Mu to the parking lot and then went back.

...After finally making it to Sunday, Bian Mu ate two boiled eggs and drank a large glass of milk early in the morning before driving back to her hometown.

The profound meaning of the Medicine Cauldron Secret Technique far exceeded Bian Mu's imagination. Even now, Bian Mu still cannot grasp the key points of some obscure and difficult-to-understand content. However, he can basically confirm one thing: the Medicine Cauldron Secret Technique is not only limited to the preparation of traditional Chinese medicine, but also contains new ideas for treating certain types of cancer.

Therefore, Bian Mu would spend his spare time pondering deeply, and he would write down any insights he gained in his notes. During his diligent study, Bian Mu unexpectedly discovered the formula for a high-end tonic. Taking advantage of his proximity to the source, Bian Mu recently used his spare time to prepare some tonics to boost his parents' immunity. He carefully made them into small cubes like Sachima, wrapped in corn husks, and they were priceless!

When her son came in, Bian's mother was overjoyed. She left her husband at home to look after the house while the two of them went out to the market to buy some fresh ingredients to cook something delicious.

"Your Aunt Xue has a bad illness..." While picking out chives, Bian's mother suddenly mentioned an old neighbor.

"Huh?! It can't be..."

"It's that kind of place, and it's in a bad spot, on the left side of the nasal cavity, high up. If it gets worse, it will affect normal breathing! I'm really depressed, and I've lost a lot of weight. Sigh! When you two were little, your dad and I were both working the night shift, and your Aunt Xue took great care of us, almost like her own children. You have to remember how good she was to you!"

"Of course! You mean... I should go and take a look before I return to the city?"

"It's up to you. You've always insisted on not taking on that kind of disease. Actually, I can understand it to some extent. What mother would want her son to deal with that kind of disease all the time?! Putting aside everything else, being surrounded by illness all the time, in the long run, even if it's not contagious, a mother wouldn't be happy!"

"Yes! I know what to do!"

Nodding slightly, Bian's mother said nothing more.
