Great Medicine Without Borders

Chapter 1457 Patient

Xu Chunliang is not an expert in mental illness. Traditional Chinese medicine treats mental illnesses differently from Western medicine's philosophy.

In the view of traditional Chinese medicine, the occurrence of mental illness is extremely closely related to factors such as dysfunction of the human body's internal organs, poor circulation of qi and blood, and internal internal trauma.

Therefore, traditional Chinese medicine usually starts from the holistic point of view, emphasizes syndrome differentiation and treatment, and improves symptoms by adjusting the functions of the internal organs, unblocking the qi and blood, and balancing yin and yang.

Although Xu Chunliang has not professionally and systematically learned modern Western medicine knowledge, after all, he has worked in the hospital for so long and has a certain understanding of Western medical theory. As the saying goes, he has never eaten pork and has seen pigs running.

Xu Chunliang carefully studied the medical records provided by Meng Jinglai before coming here. Generally speaking, this medical record is not valuable in reference and has not described the cause in detail. He has tried various methods for subsequent treatment, and even asked the witch to read it.

Traditional Chinese medicine pays attention to seeing a doctor, looking, listening, asking and touching. These four words are not only for patients, but also for the environment in which patients live. Traditional Chinese medicine knows how to explore the relationship between heaven and man.

So when Xu Chunliang got off the car, he found that Meng Jingyuan lived a special place. In the eyes of the driver Xiao Chen, if Meng Jing came here this time, they didn’t know that Xu Chunliang had observed them before seeing the patient.

Xu Chunliang entered the innate realm and achieved a leap in his observation. In his eyes, ordinary people have almost no secrets. He can infer the other party's psychological state through his breathing, heartbeat, or even expressions and behaviors.

Although Meng Jinglai was sincere to him on the surface, he did not trust Xu Chunliang deep in his heart. The reason for asking Xu Chunliang to come was the recommendation of the Wang family, and he probably also took the attitude of treating him as a living person.

Driver Xiao Chen was very vigilant about Xu Chunliang's arrival. It should be said that when Xu Chunliang came to this villa, everyone was full of vigilance towards him. Although they covered up very well, their true attitude was still exposed from the details.

The nurse on duty today is He Bei, who is 35 years old and has been taking care of Meng Jingyuan for ten years. Before entering Meng Jingyuan's room, Xu Chunliang proposed to talk to her alone on the grounds that she was aware of her condition.

Meng Jinglai provided them with a study room.

Xu Chunliang entered the study and found that the curtains in the study were also closed tightly, and it was dark inside. When he wanted to pull the curtains, He Bei turned on the light.

Although there was light inside, Xu Chunliang continued to walk towards the curtains and pulled them open.

The light outside is not good, the study room does not face south, and it is cloudy again today. Looking out from the window, you can see the dense forests.

"This curtain hasn't been cleaned for a long time, it's dirty!"

Xu Chunliang glanced at the furniture. The desk was spotless and the chair was clean. There was no dust when he opened the curtains just now. The curtains also had the smell of detergent, which was clearly washed for a while.

Xu Chunliang sat down and said to He Bei, "Sit."

He Bei did not sit down: "I will go and record the patient's condition later."

Xu Chunliang said: "The work should not be heavy when so many people take care of one, right?"

He Bei said: "I am only responsible for nursing. The three of us take shifts, usually taking twelve hours to rest for twenty-four hours."

Xu Chunliang said: "The salary should be quite high, right?"

He Bei thought Xu Chunliang would ask about his condition, but she didn't expect that these irrelevant words were all at the beginning. She nodded, and there was nothing to deny. Her current salary was more than most nurses in Beijing.

Xu Chunliang said: "As far as I know, you are the one you have worked here for the longest time, for ten years?"

He Bei nodded: "Actually, the shortest of the three of us is seven years old, and the difference is not far."

Xu Chunliang said: "There should be a nurse who took care of her in the past."

He Bei continued to nod.

"Do you know each other?"

He Bei shook her head: "They all resigned when I came. If you want to know the relevant information, you should ask Mr. Meng."

Xu Chunliang said: "I just asked casually, by the way, has Meng Jingyuan's condition changed a lot in the past ten years?"

He Bei said: "It has never been good. Anyway, since I came here to do nursing work, she was already unconscious and didn't even know her family. She was crazy all day long, either crying or scolding."

"Are you completely unable to take care of yourself in life?"

He Bei was stunned by his question.

Xu Chunliang said: "For example, eating and going to the toilet."

He Bei said: "I can't take care of myself at all."

The reason why Xu Chunliang asked this was to confirm whether Meng Jingyuan was still ashamed and had the minimum rationality.

He Bei said: "Mr. Xu, you are very special, different from other doctors."

Xu Chunliang said: "I am not a doctor."

He Bei was stunned again. Why didn’t the doctor come here to do? Meng Jinglai clearly said that he had invited a doctor to help with the diagnosis and treatment.

Xu Chunliang said: "The Meng family has hired many famous doctors over the years, right?"

He Bei nodded: "Especially in the two years when I first came, famous doctors and experts came over all day long, but every time I held great hope, and in the end they all returned disappointed."

Xu Chunliang heard what she meant was that she had no hope for herself at all. Xu Chunliang said: "Have you ever talked to Meng Jingyuan in the past ten years?"

"How is it possible? She is not conscious and how can I talk to her."

"She didn't say anything?"

He Bei said: "Doesn't it count?"

Xu Chunliang nodded.

He Bei pursed her lips: "She said she wanted to kill us."

Xu Chunliang said, "Why did she hate you so much?"

He Bei said: "I don't hate us. I say this to everyone. Let's do it. You will understand when you see her later."

Xu Chunliang said: "Apart from you and the Meng family, are there anyone else coming to visit her?"

He Bei said: "No, except for the doctors who come to follow the doctor regularly, no one comes to visit. The Meng family should not want outsiders to know that Meng Jingyuan's condition is not suitable for outsiders to visit."

Xu Chunliang said, "Who is the one who takes care of her?"

He Bei said: "The three of us nurses who contacted her the most, but when the patient was crazy, he needed other people's help."

Xu Chunliang said, "I understand."

He Bei glanced at the time and said that she should go for a routine check-up.

Xu Chunliang proposed to go there with her. Meng Jingyuan lives on the third floor. Normally, the third floor should be the best place to light, but due to artificial obstruction, it has become the dimest place.

The lights in the corridor are dim, making people feel a sense of depression. Meng Jingyuan's room is located at the end of the corridor, located in the northwest corner of the villa.

Meng Jinglai did not accompany them into Meng Jingyuan's room. When he arrived at the third floor, he stopped and said to Xu Chunliang: "Xiao Xu, go over and take a look, I'll wait here."

Xu Chunliang glanced at Meng Jinglai: "Are you scared?"

Meng Jinglai smiled bitterly and said, "What's the point of being afraid of my sister? I just can't bear to see her now."

Xu Chunliang can understand that Meng Jingyuan has been crazy for so many years, and she is not as good as a ghost. It is definitely not a good time for her family to see her.

The door is a double verification of fingerprint and pupils. After He Bei passed the verification, he pushed open the door. The door was thick and not an ordinary interior door. It has embedded steel plates and can't even penetrate the bullets.

Xu Chunliang felt a little exaggerated. This was the first door. After passing the same door, he came to the third door. He Bei said to Xu Chunliang: "The sound insulation here is very good, and she can't hear her screams outside."

When I opened the last door, I heard the woman's shrill howling.

All the windows in the interior were closed. Under the faint light, a woman in black was seen. Her hands were tied into her clothes, and her legs were tied with belts and fixed to the chair.

The woman's hair is cut very short, her figure is very thin, her thin cheeks make her eyes look big. In the dim light, her eyes still burst out with crazy and burning light. Her dry mouth is trying hard to open to the maximum. Her bloodless neck is veins, as if tiny green snakes are squirming under her thin skin, making people worry that the green blood will break through her thin skin at any time.

Seeing Xu Chunliang appear, the stranger, she suddenly stopped howling and stared at Xu Chunliang with her eyes, like a hungry wolf who discovered her prey.

He Bei stopped. Although she had been in this job for ten years, she still felt chill every time she saw Meng Jingyuan.

Xu Chunliang walked towards Meng Jingyuan, and He Bei couldn't help but remind: "Be careful!"

Xu Chunliang said, "It's okay." He continued to walk towards Meng Jingyuan. When both sides were one meter apart, Meng Jingyuan sniffed hard, and her eyes became more and more burning.

Xu Chunliang came close to her and faintly smelled a fishy smell. This smell clearly came from Meng Jingyuan's body. The smell was very light and mixed with the fragrance of bath fluid. Judging from Meng Jingyuan's appearance, the people who took care of her must be diligent in helping her clean up.

Meng Jingyuan's breathing pace was getting faster and faster, and Xu Chunliang stretched out his hand as if he was about to touch her forehead.

Meng Jingyuan suddenly opened her mouth and bit Xu Chunliang, and a beast-like roar came from her throat, and then the sound of He Bei reminding her was heard.

Xu Chunliang took action very quickly, and his right hand accurately pinched Meng Jingyuan's jaw. With a little force, Meng Jingyuan was controlled by him and could not cause harm to Xu Chunliang. Her eyes were crazy and cruel, and saliva flowed out along the corners of her lips.

Xu Chunliang said slowly, "The teeth are so white, neat, and tiger teeth. The scar on your hand was bitten by her, right?"

This sentence was clearly meant for He Bei behind her. He Bei subconsciously clenched her hands. She was wearing gloves. How could Xu Chunliang see the scars on her hands? This young man is indeed extraordinary.

Xu Chunliang stared at Meng Jingyuan's eyes. Ecstasy has no effect on such highly schizophrenia patients because their consciousness is closed and they cannot concentrate on communicating with the outside world.

In Xu Chunliang's eyes, Meng Jingyuan is a patient, but in Meng Jingyuan's eyes, perhaps he is just a prey used to bite and vent.

Xu Chunliang felt the power from Meng Jingyuan, and he frowned slightly. It was so strange that a person who had been sick for twenty years still had such powerful strength?
