Chapter 232 The real cause
Everyone was happy just now, and was worried about what Dr. Miao said. Ye Wufeng asked: "How can you see the old miracle doctor? Tell us, don't let us be stuck in the dark."
Dr. Miao began to say: "In her brain, it was not a tumor. It was a worm."
Everyone was shocked, "Is it a bug? How did it get into the brain?"
Dr. Miao said: "She must have drunk some mountain spring water when she was young or teenager. There was a strange egg in the water. This insect is called the golden nematode. With the spring water, it will enter the body of humans or animals. With the blood, it will wander to all parts of the body and live in any place. Then the larvae begin to grow and gradually take shape after many years. Its shape is linear and golden. So it is called the golden nematode."
"The reason why Western medicine sees the shape of a tumor is because the range of movement in the brain is too small, and the irregular spherical shape formed after the body is curled up. This insect is highly poisonous. Even if it is not poisonous, such a large insect may take her life in the human brain at any time."
Ye Wufeng asked anxiously: "Doctor Miao, how can this insect be killed? Can it be removed by surgery?"
Dr. Miao said: "The place where the insects grow is too close to the central nervous system of the brain. The risk factor for surgery is too large. Moreover, this insect is quite spiritual. If surgery is performed, it will try hard to drill deep into the brain. If it is not done well, it will bite the blood vessels or nerve bands in the brain. That would be a bad thing."
Ye Wufeng asked: "How to treat it?"
Dr. Miao said: "The medical books passed down from my family have recorded that there is a medicine that specifically controls the golden nematode. As long as you take this medicine, the golden nematode can turn into blood in one month, and the patient will be cured."
Ye Wufeng asked again: "What medicine and how much does it cost?"
Dr. Miao said: "This kind of medicine is not expensive, but the medicine leads are really difficult to get. The scales of the golden scale beast need to be crushed into powder. This golden scale beast has lived in the deep mountains for a long time and cannot be found."
Ye Wufeng said: "What is the golden scale beast? Why haven't we heard of it?"
Dr. Miao said: "It is a small animal that looks like a kirin but is only the size of a rabbit. It has strange movements and lives in a cave deep in the mountains and rarely comes out to move. It is even more difficult to catch a golden scale beast than to win a lottery."
Ye Wufeng said: "No matter how difficult it is, I will try it. Doctor Miao, tell me where can I catch the golden scale beast?"
Doctor Miao said: "Thirty miles away from our Miao Village, there is a place called Qilin Mountain. More than ten years ago, when I was collecting herbs on that mountain, I saw a golden scale beast. However, after more than ten years, I don't know if the little thing is still there?"
Mr. Yuan asked: "Will this little thing die? How many years can this little thing live?"
Dr. Miao said: "Its lifespan is at least several hundred years. Without external harm, it will not die naturally. In addition, this thing is a divine beast, and it is very difficult to kill it. Therefore, even if someone is sent to catch it, it may not be able to catch it. Unfortunately, I am too old and can't climb the mountain. Otherwise, I can go there in person..."
Ye Wufeng said: "Since I know where it appears, I must try it. There is nothing absolute in this world. I believe that after our efforts, we will be able to catch this golden scale beast."
Dr. Miao said: "If you have to go, I will let Crystal lead you."
"Okay. Let's go this afternoon." Ye Wufeng made up his mind.
Mr. Yuan said: "Okay, Ye Wufeng, I'll accompany you."
Ye Wufeng said: "Mr. Yuan, you are not young anymore, so you should wait for news at home. I'll do it alone."
Mr. Yuan said: "How can you do alone? Ye Wufeng, I must accompany you."
Shui Jing also said: "Brother Wufeng, my grandfather and I have been to that mountain to collect herbs, and I will lead you."
Shuanzi felt a little reluctant to let him go when he heard that his daughter was going to go too. However, Ye Wufeng saved his life and was obliged to help others.
After dinner, Ye Wufeng and the other two were about to set off, and Lin Shuyin was going to go, but her health was very poor today and she felt sweaty as soon as she walked. So Dr. Miao disagreed with Lin Shuyin's going. Lin Shuyin had to stay.
"Ye Wufeng, Shui Jing, Mr. Yuan, take care of yourself. If you really can't find the golden scale beast, please retreat." Lin Shuyin instructed.
The next day, Ye Wufeng and his three set off. The road to Qilin Mountain was indeed difficult to walk. The three of them spent a lot of effort before they arrived at the foot of Qilin Mountain.
The three of them started searching where the golden scale beast once appeared. After searching for a whole afternoon, they did not see the shadow of the golden scale beast.
Shuijing said: "Brother Wufeng, there is a big cave in front of him. Grandpa said that there are many strange phenomena in that cave, and the golden-scale beast is likely to be hidden there. Let's go in and look for it."
Ye Wufeng said: "Okay. Let's go in together."
The cave is very big, and the more you go inside, the wider it becomes, and the temperature becomes lower and lower.
After walking for a while, Ye Wufeng suddenly found a thing lying quietly on a high platform not far ahead. This thing looked like a unicorn, the size of a hare, and the eyes were like two golden bells, which were particularly eye-catching in the black cave.
"Oh my God, the golden scale beast!" Ye Wufeng couldn't help but scream.
"What are you waiting for? Hurry up and catch it." Old Master Yuan was the first to rush forward.
Old Master Yuan waved the Miao sword, pointed it at the golden scale beast and slashed it hard. The Miao sword slashed hard on it. The little beast screamed, but its scales were extremely hard, and the ordinary Miao sword could not hurt it at all. Seeing someone attacking him, the golden scale beast planned to escape.
Ye Wufeng was ready to block its retreat. "We must catch it."
However, this golden-scale beast was moving quickly, especially invulnerable to swords and guns. It was really difficult to catch it. It ran around and the three of them couldn't catch it. On several occasions, Ye Wufeng almost wanted to catch it, but he was broken away by the little thing and escaped.
"Brother Wufeng, I'll give you this." Jing took out something from her bag and opened it in her hand.
Ye Wufeng asked: "What is this?"
Shuijing said: "This is the gold wire mesh that my grandfather gave me when he came. If you use this net pocket to plug it in, he will not be able to escape."
Ye Wufeng was overjoyed. He was missing something like this. As long as he covered the golden scale beast, he could not escape. After another round of pursuit and blocking, Ye Wufeng finally succeeded and used a crystal gold wire mesh to cover the golden scale beast firmly.
Ye Wufeng lifted the net bag, tied a slip knot, raised the golden scale beast, and laughed: "I finally caught you."
Mr. Yuan wiped his head full of sweat, "It's really not easy. Fortunately, this trip was not in vain. Ye Wufeng, your wife is saved."
