At 5:00 AM, the Large Intestine ridian is at its peak, making it a good ti to get up and move around to aid bowel movents.
Why do we need sufficient lung energy to have a bowel movent? The "Inner Scripture of the Yellow Emperor" says: "The lungs and large intestine are interconnected."
The lungs will circulate fresh blood throughout the body, which then stimulates the Large Intestine ridian to beco active, completing the process of absorbing water and nutrients from food and expelling waste.
mories of learning so of this knowledge during my undergraduate years floated into my mind.
In the next mont, Lu Xuan cast all these thoughts aside, lay down, and drifted into sleep.
...
For many people today, staying up late has beco quite a common practice.
This is especially true in big cities full of neon lights.
Falling asleep before midnight is a luxury for many who are busy with life’s demands.
While Lu Xuan was in dreamland, elsewhere, an apartnt was brightly lit, and the livestream of Liu Shao, a strear with over five hundred thousand followers online, was sharing his bizarre experiences of the day.
"Lao Liu, didn’t you say your diabetes is really serious? How dare you stay up so late, aren’t you afraid of death?!"
"Didn’t you say during yesterday’s stream that you were going to see a traditional Chinese dicine doctor today? How did it go? Was it okay?"
"I don’t think this is even worth asking. Brother Liu has been seeing Chinese dicine doctors for a while now, and every ti he goes all excited, he cos back disappointed, right?"
"Nowadays, most Chinese dicine doctors aren’t as good as they were in ancient tis."
"Yeah! The lineage’s been broken; a lot of important dical texts and classics have been lost. Even if we want to learn, there’s no way to learn."
"Actually, there are still quite a few excellent Chinese dicine doctors out there."
"Even if they exist, it’s no use for us. Don’t we know about those outstanding Chinese dicine practitioners unfamiliar to the ancients? But obviously, we can’t reach them. Even the extrely skilled ones in the countryside are only famous locally and rarely get recognized widely. Those who know, know; those who don’t, don’t. Good doctors exist, but it’s useless if you can’t find them."
"It’s a real pity. Our country’s Chinese dicine is genuinely incredible; both the internal and surgical departnts are impressively strong. Only when we didn’t know did we think Western dicine was so great. But after learning about Chinese dicine, it’s clear how formidable it is. Many surgical techniques in Western dicine today were already practiced by our ancient Chinese dicine."
"In so ancient tombs unearthed recently, there were various surgical tools used by ancient Chinese dicine practitioners. Speaking of surgery, Chinese dicine is the ancestor. It’s a sha many docunts have been lost; otherwise, how could our Chinese dicine be overshadowed by Western dicine?"
"Actually, I admire Brother Liu trendously. Despite suffering from a severe illness, he maintains a good attitude and keeps explaining various Chinese dicine concepts to us. Although sotis he might not say everything correctly, honestly, most of what we know about Chinese dicine cos from Brother Liu."
"Brother Liu, if you can’t find a good Chinese dicine doctor, I think you should give up. Insulin injections provide the sa service; it’s all about survival."
"Yeah! Also, this livestream schedule could use so changes. Always staying up late, I’m afraid one day the news won’t be about you quitting streaming but about your passing away."
"A strear dies of a terminal illness during a late-night livestream at age thirty-three?"
"Okay, okay, don’t curse Lao Liu here. You guys really aren’t afraid of causing trouble, but indeed Lao Liu should take care of his health; staying up late isn’t good."
"Speaking of which, can we not stray off topic? Brother Liu hasn’t even shared his results today."
"Do we even need to ask?"
"I also think it’s unnecessary. eting a skilled Chinese dicine doctor isn’t that easy."
"Hearing that Lao Liu ntioned it, it’s still the Health Center. If there were really excellent Chinese dicine doctors there, they’d have been recruited by major hospitals long ago; there’s no chance they’d remain at the Health Center!"
"I feel the sa way."
"Sigh!"
A sigh appears in the live chat.
People weren’t optimistic about Liu Shao’s situation today; they even felt that the Health Center couldn’t possibly have any great Chinese dicine doctors.
Even if there were, would the Health Center have the chance?
They’d have been recruited long ago.
"Lao Liu, don’t be too upset. How can such skilled Chinese dicine doctors be so easily encountered?"
"Yeah! Brother Liu, don’t feel down. Take your ti to find one; if it really doesn’t work, just use insulin injections. Nothing’s wrong with surviving."
Watching the dense stream of comforting ssages in the chat, Liu Shao instinctively paused for a mont, then patted the table and said, "Brothers, don’t give blind comfort! When did I say I’m not doing well?"
"Can’t you guys stop with the wild guessing?"
Even though Liu Shao’s health wasn’t great, his voice was robust at this mont, seemingly perplexed by the crowd’s concern.
His words, however, left the viewers in the chat, who were originally sighing and feeling helpless, dumbstruck.
What’s he implying?
For a mont, the barrage of comnts dwindled significantly.
After a while, the comnts started pouring in again.
"Lao Liu, what do you an by this?"
"Brother Liu is smiling a lot today, looking quite happy, could it be that..."
"Damn! Could it be that the legendary Chinese dicine doctor really was encountered by our Brother Liu?"
"Lao Liu, hurry up, share with us!"
...
In the livestream chat, viewers were anxiously eager.
If Liu Shao really encountered one of those rare Chinese dicine doctors, who could stay calm?
These days, who doesn’t have a family mber who’s unwell? Who doesn’t have so health issues themselves?
