Chapter 161 Old Bell Doctor

Doctor Ling gave the second daughter a sideways look, wanting to show off her tricks, and said softly: "Miss, don't underestimate the old man. The old man's medical skills have been passed down from generation to generation, and he specializes in treating difficult and miscellaneous diseases! Back then, he worked in the imperial hospital and was treated by the emperor's relatives. Yes, I'm getting old, I'm retiring from my job, and I don't want to let all my knowledge go to waste, so I just set up a stall to seek luck..."

Shu Die said: "Okay, okay! You just go to see a doctor, why are you talking so much!"

"Okay! See a doctor!" Dr. Ling gently twirled his snow-white long beard with two fingers, raised his index finger, and said, "It's not out of intention to show off. The old man always only uses one finger when he sees a doctor, don't be surprised."

Dr. Ling stretched out his index finger, put it lightly on the Cunkou, closed his eyes slightly, took all pulses, gasped, opened his eyes, took a deep breath, glanced at Meier, then looked at himself on the wrist. His finger, that's right, it's resting on Cunkou, how could there be no pulse?

Is it because the pulse is too thin to get the pulse?

Doctor Ling pressed down again with one finger, all the fingers were pressed into Meier's delicate skin, but he still couldn't find the pulse!

Doctor Lao Ling couldn't hold back anymore, his eyes turned and his face became more gloomy: "Young lady's disease is much more serious than I expected, and I will use two fingers to feel the pulse to confirm the ominous."

After all, I added another finger, but in the end, I still couldn't find the pulse.Dr. Lao Ling quietly added another finger, which turned into three-finger pulse cutting, but there was still no pulse at all!
Doctor Lao Ling looked at Mei'er as if he was looking at a monster, and thought to himself, could it be that this person's pulse is weird, and the pulse is not in the three parts of Cunkou?

Doctor Ling moved left and right, but still didn't feel the beating of the pulse, her gray eyebrows trembled a few times: "Girl, please change your hand."

Mei'er put her right hand on the pulse pillow again, Dr. Ling carefully identified the Guan pulse, first hit the middle designated Guan, then lightly put the index finger and ring finger, and took the cun and chi.Concentrate on the pulse diagnosis, take it lightly, no pulse, heavy pressing still no pulse, can't help the color change, put up your fingers and press hard, only then can you faintly feel a very weak pulse beating, faintly present, intermittent.

Doctor Lao Ling slowly let go of his fingers, twirled his beard and concentrated for a moment: "Miss, this pulse is mainly for wealth and honor, but it is also for fierceness, it's embarrassing."

"Don't fool people, okay!" Shu Die snorted, "I never heard that the pulse is inauspicious!"

"Of course it is inauspicious and auspicious! The pulse condition can not only measure the disease, but also can be used to predict wealth, high or low, clear and turbid pulses, poor flow, slippery and astringent pulses, ups and downs according to longevity, prosperity and prosperity according to fortune, and urgency and urgency according to good or bad. "Speaking of this, Dr. Lao Ling sighed again: "The one whose hands are as clear as a pulseless vein is originally a pure yin vein, which is a sign of wealth and wealth; There is no pulse, and things will turn when they are extreme, but they have become a sign of great evil!"

Mei'er's face paled immediately, and she involuntarily grabbed Shu Die's hand beside her.

Shu Die patted the back of her hand lightly, and scolded: "You old man, how dare you open your mouth to scare my sister with such fierce words. You are really rude! ——Meier, let's go!"

Doctor Lao Ling shook his head and sighed: "Ah! Since ancient times, the truth has been harsh. The so-called concealing debts to be poor, concealing illness and death, knowing that the illness is critical, but still deceiving oneself and others, until the catastrophe is imminent, it will be too late to regret!"

Mei'er had lost her mind, she was about to get up and leave, but she stopped talking and sat down again: "Sir, what disease am I suffering from?"

"Girl, to tell you the truth, you may not like to hear it, but this old man is also doing it for your own good——Your pulse is extremely weird. I have only seen it once in my life. That person is worse than your pulse, but he has no hands. Pulse! But I feel that there is nothing wrong with my body, and it is very good. The old man told him: "Minus disease is not sick. It is called walking corpse. You are terminally ill and will die within three days!" This person didn't believe it, and laughed at me. On the third day, I really died."

Meng Han also scolded at the side: "You old man is serious. I asked you what is wrong with you. If you don't tell me, you just try to scare people with your words. Don't you just want a consultation fee? You are right, you are indispensable!— —give him a penny!"

The personal maid who followed beside her took out a sling of money and put it on the table.

"I don't mean that, ha ha..." Doctor Lao Ling took the hanging copper coin while talking, stuffed it into his bosom, coughed lightly, and said: "This girl has a chance to survive this disease!"

"How do you say that?" Shu Die asked.

"Because the girl has a pulse in her lower leg!"

"What do you mean? Can you explain clearly?"

"Fourteen Difficulties: There is a pulse in the upper part, but no pulse in the lower part. The person should vomit. If he does not vomit, he will die. There is no pulse in the upper part, but there is a pulse in the lower part. Even if he is trapped, he will not be able to do harm. Therefore, a person has a ruler, just like a tree has roots. , although the branches and leaves are withered, the roots will grow by themselves. The veins have roots, and people have vitality, so they know that they will never die..."

"Okay, okay, don't hang your book bag, just tell me, what's wrong with my sister?"

"Okay, I'll just say it straight, the girl's disease is 'mai paralysis'!"

"Main paralysis? What do you mean?"

"Those with arterial arteries, the blood flow is astringent and stagnant, blood stasis is blocked in the blood vessels, resulting in shortness of breath, palpitation, cold limbs, numbness and weakness. Miss, is the old man right?"

Meier nodded again and again, and asked with tears: "Is this disease serious?"

"The disease is critical! What the old man said earlier was not intended to be alarmist at all, it was the truth. However, you don't have to worry too much, the old man just said that if you have a pulse, you will die if you don't vomit. If you don't have a pulse, you will die." It has veins, just like a big tree, the tree grows worms, the leaves fall off, as long as the roots are still there, nothing will happen, the ruler is the root of the veins, if the ruler has veins, the vitality will not die, so you know that you will not die!"

Shu Die snorted: "You're here again. After listening for a long time, I just said one word - this disease can be cured, right?"

"Of course! Miss, the disease is still on the surface of the body, and it hasn't entered the internal organs. She can still be saved."

"How to save the law? Tell me!"

"This...so saving a life is better than building a seven-level pagoda. Medicine is benevolence. I shouldn't have concealed it, but the girl's disease is very rare and difficult to treat. If you don't believe me, you can visit famous doctors in the capital. If you can say that you are ugly, the old man will leave immediately. Girl, if you don’t blush, no one in the world can cure you! You have also met the old man, and this life is considered to be back, girl You're not in your twenties this year, are you? Tsk tsk, if you're so young, if you ruin it like this, it's just like this..."

"Okay, okay!" Shu Die waved her hand impatiently: "What's the matter with you, it's useless to talk about it."

Menghan also gave the old Ling doctor a blank look: "He just wants to ask for a few more pennies! Tell me, how much is the medicine?"

Doctor Laoling giggled dryly, and raised two fingers.

"Two or two?"

"No, 20 taels! — 20 taels of silver is not too expensive to save a girl's life, is it?"

"You old man really opened his mouth like a lion. Even if Dr. Du of Wuweitang, a well-known doctor in Beijing who is good at Hua Tuo's magical skills, would not ask for more than ten taels of consultation fee to save lives. Doubling it?"

"Diagnosing patients is voluntary, free to come and go. The Dr. Du of Fuyuntang that the girl mentioned - now it is called Wuweitang. That Dr. Du sold 10 taels of silver for a prescription! This is a life-saving prescription for me." It’s not too little to sell 20 taels.”

"Hmph, can you compare with Dr. Du? He knows Hua Tuo's magical skills, can you?"

The old Ling doctor smiled faintly: "Miss, you are joking. How can the old Ling doctor on the roadside be compared with Dr. Du? However, there is a saying that is not boastful. Only the old man can cure this girl's disease, even if it is Doctor Du. If you don’t believe me, you can go to Dr. Du and let him take a look. If he can also say what I said, this old man will break the flagpole of practicing medicine and climb back!”

The two girls, Shu Die and Meng Han, glanced at each other, seeing that the old Ling doctor looked confident, and they didn't know what Meier's illness was, so they didn't dare to talk nonsense.

Mei'er took a jade bracelet from her wrist, put it gently on the table, and said with tears: "This jade bracelet is worth 50 taels, and I gave it to Mr., I hope Mr. can cure my strange disease!"

Doctor Lao Ling's eyes lit up, he grabbed it, and held it up in the air to examine it carefully. As expected, it was the best Lantian jade. He couldn't help being overjoyed, put it into his arms and patted it: "Don't worry, girl! Your illness is on the old man's body." !"

Picking up the brush, seeing that the ink on the inkstone had dried up, he picked up a teacup and poured some tea to grind the ink. After grinding it, he picked up a wolf hair, wrote a prescription with the pen, and handed it to Meier.

Mei'er took it and took a look, and saw that the ingredients and dosages were all written on the prescription. She didn't know medical skills, and she couldn't understand what they were.

Seeing her bewildered look, Dr. Lao Ling said, "Miss, don't you understand? I will explain it to you and you will understand. The girl's constitution is weak, her yang energy is extremely weak, and her meridians are not warm, so she can't reach the end of the body. Afraid of the cold, cold hands and feet. Deficiency of qi and inability to agitate nutrient blood, loss of nourishment of the heart, palpitations, shortness of breath, mental fatigue, deficiency of nutrient qi, lack of righteousness, so hands and feet hyperhidrosis, so the prescription used by the old man is "Sini Decoction" , Aconitum soup' addition and subtraction."

Dr. Lao Ling took the prescription, turned the brush upside down, pointed to the medicine on it, and said: "Cinnamon twigs loosen the cold on the outside and inside, warm and unblock the meridians; Asarum and Tongcao promote yang energy; Angelica and white peony nourish blood and nutrition; Astragalus and ephedra Tonify the yang qi of the muscles, Chuanwu tongbi, its nature is pungent and dissipates, and can pass through the twelve meridians! Break the old paper to supplement the Yuanyang of the lower burnt, to drive away the evil of cold and turbidity in the inside, licorice to help Qi and Qi, It also suppresses the strong sex of Chuanwu; Caulis Spatholobus promotes blood circulation, nourishes blood, and also dredges collaterals, the whole formula warms meridians and unblocks veins, hands and feet are mild, and pulses can return to normal!"

Shu Die said: "Is it so effective? This is a prescription bought for 50 taels of silver!"

"Don't worry, you get what you pay for, until the cure is cured! Prescribe six doses first, and then come back when there is an effect after taking it. If it doesn't work, you find someone to dismantle my medicine stall! I see God setting up a stall here to see a doctor of."

"That's good! Let's go."

The three women left the medicine stall, Shu Die said: "Let's go back to Wuweitang to pick up medicine, and leave this prescription in the hall by the way, let Mr. Du come back to see if it works. It's better not to believe this kind of doctor. This disease was not cured, but other diseases were cured.”

Meng Han shook his head: "Let's not do it for now. If Mr. Du knows that we went to Dr. Ling to see a doctor but not him, he will be angry. It is better to pick up the medicine and take two doses to see if it works. See Mr. Du."

Die'er knew that she was suffering from a strange disease, she was already in a state of confusion, lost her mind for a while, after hearing this, she also nodded.
