Chapter Eight: Song Shu's Rescue
This farce attracted more and more people to watch.
Gradually, other voices came from the crowd:
"...Speaking of which, the last time I had a cold, I just coughed twice. After I came to Chen's to grab some cough medicine and drank it, Dr. Chen said, 'Be careful of fever at night.'
When I really got a fever, I thought it was Dr. Chen’s superb medical skills at the time, but now that I think about it, maybe he was the one who accurately predicted the fever!”
"...and me, me too..."
These unanimous discussions have inadvertently undermined the reputation of Chen's Medical Center.
Song Shu stared at the man's face closely, making sure that he was one of the people sitting at the table across from them in the pastry shop.
The man's complexion was a little gray, but his lips were blue and cyanotic. Moreover, because he took off his coat, you could see a small finger-thick muscle on the side of his neck. As he spoke loudly, the lines appeared one by one. In addition, Dr. Chen's treatment of the man
Based on the diagnosis, Song Shu guessed that the man was indeed likely to have congenital heart disease.
His eyes slid down from his face and came to the needle holes on the man's back.
The silver needles used in traditional Chinese medicine acupuncture, no matter how many inches they are, will not be able to create such a large wound. Such swelling and color are more like cysts that grow after the epidermis is injured and then smeared with something.
, and it is even more scary because of the large number.
Could it be a coincidence? Song Shu didn't think so.
Song Shu's eyes searched the crowd watching the excitement. If it was not a coincidence, then there should be someone else cooperating with him.
Just as she was thinking about it, Song Shu noticed that the man who had always dominated the crowd inadvertently looked into the crowd. Following his direction, Song Shu quickly found the man who handed the man his wallet at the pastry shop.
people.
"...The time to burn a stick of incense is almost up. Why, why don't you give me an explanation?"
Doctor Chen just wanted to curse.
He really wanted to give this explanation! But once he moved to the needle point where he wanted to check the man, the man told him to drug him again and wouldn't come close.
No matter what, just ask him to give an explanation. What explanation can he give?
He also understood that someone had set a trap for him, just waiting for him to get in! After practicing medicine and consulting for so many years, he felt that he had no regrets, but to be set up like this, his heart was half cold.
Chen Shichun looked like he was more mourning than dying.
The man raised his arms and shouted: "Look! This old man is speechless! This Chen's Medical Clinic is a medical clinic that harms people! Doctors do not save people, but harm them. Who will dare to come here in the future!"
"Yes! It's useless for us to come to see a doctor whenever we get sick. We spend so much money and lose money!"
"Yeah! Pay money!!"
Suddenly, the crowd was furious.
It was at this time that Song Shu squeezed her way out of the crowd of spectators and came to Dr. Chen's side.
She knew that if she rashly stood up and spoke at this time, not only would the situation be out of control, but it would also attract a lot of firepower to herself, which was very risky.
So she got the bamboo stick on the ground that was supposed to be holding a sieve to dry medicinal herbs, grabbed a swollen bump on the man's body and poked it.
"Ah -" the man wailed, his loud voice interrupting the debt collectors.
He turned around and yelled at Song Shu: "What are you doing!"
Song Shu held the bamboo stick with some disbelief on her face. She seemed to have realized what she had done. She apologized to the man very embarrassedly: "I'm sorry, brother, I just saw this on you... all of a sudden."
Thinking of the pustules on my dog, I can’t control my hands...I’m sorry..."
"What do you mean?!" The man was furious and compared him with a dog. What do you think of him?
"I don't mean anything else, brother, don't be angry..." Song Shu threw away the bamboo stick, "But what I said is true. This is just like the kind of scabies on animals, big and big.
Damn, my family used to have a dog like this. The hair on the dog’s body was long, so it was very troublesome to take care of it and apply medicine on it. Have any of you seen this?”
Song Shu asked, and someone started to reminisce. Soon someone interrupted: "Why haven't you seen it before? There is a ruined temple at the south gate! There are dogs in the temple, and they have swellings like this on their bodies."
Song Shu faced the man with an expression that said, "Look, I was right." "At that time, when applying medicine, you had to cut off the hair on the dog's body, otherwise it wouldn't be applied at all. Later, when the dog saw it,
Even if I scream, no one will get close to me..."
There were a few laughs from the crowd.
"So, brother, I have some experience in dealing with this swelling. It is safer than this old man... Chen... I will instruct the medicine boy to clean it for you, because there are some places around your wound.
If it ulcerates, if it is not treated, it can easily infect the surrounding areas with good skin."
Everyone basically recognized the man's identity as an "innocent good guy who was drugged by a bad doctor". At this time, they also defended the man and tried to persuade him to agree.
There was a trace of panic in the man's eyes, and he agreed bravely.
The medicine boy brought water. Song Shu sat aside and directed the medicine boy to wipe it:
"First wipe the small swelling and pick up the unbroken parts of his body... Yes, that's it. Okay, now clean the veil, roll it in hot water and put it aside, let it cool down.
Use, you use the other piece first..."
"Now you can rub the broken skin and pus-filled areas... Pay attention, the movements should be gentle and slow..."
The warm towel made the man's whole back relax a lot, making it not as tight as it was at the beginning.
"The boy can be taught, what a pity..." Song Shu cast an admiring look at the little medicine boy, but sighed.
"What's a pity?" the man answered smoothly.
"It's a pity that our dog has been seeking medical advice for several months, but the disease has not been cured. The doctors said that the swelling is a special kind of poison. No matter whether it is a human or an animal, it will kill him.
such a pity……"
The man's face darkened, and Song Shu seemed to realize that these words were inappropriate, "Ah, brother, I'm not saying that you and...you, a strong person, will definitely be able to survive this poison. At most, you will have to suffer a little."
That's all, but you should be more careful when you go home. This disease is contagious and can easily be caught by people sharing the same bedding. If you have a mother-in-law and a baby in your home, they must live separately. Our dogs will treat all the dog brothers in the same litter.
It’s been a long time…”
The man’s complexion changed drastically!
"Infectious?!" He stood up suddenly in fear, and the medicine boy was pushed aside by him. "When he asked me to apply this ointment, he didn't tell me that it was contagious——"
