Tang Yi couldn’t stop scrolling once he started.
He felt that the way this Chinese dicine practitioner nad Lu explained so Chinese dicine knowledge was indeed very vivid and lively.
For instance, with insomnia, he likened the mind to a little person who works in the brain during the day and returns to the heart to rest at night. Insomnia is when this little person doesn’t appear in the specific place at the right ti, and when it’s ti to return to the heart to rest at night, he keeps running to the brain, making people unable to sleep.
This is essentially a lack of nourishnt for the mind, with insufficient blood to nourish the spirit, and the Heart Yang being slightly deficient.
If the heart’s blood acts to nourish the spirit, then the Heart Yang ensures the spirit doesn’t wander around aimlessly.
When the Heart Yang is deficient, thoughts start to lose control, which is why so people tend to overthink at night.
However, insomnia involves more than just these; it’s closely linked to the spleen, liver, and kidneys, but Lu Jiu firmly insists it’s fundantally the heart’s cause, which Tang Yi cannot comprehend.
Half an hour later, after Tang Yi finished watching most of the videos, a thought suddenly occurred to him.
He wanted to et this contemporary colleague of similar age!
Honestly speaking, he understood much of what Lu Jiu said, but if he were to explain it to others, he definitely couldn’t do it as straightforwardly as Lu Jiu does.
From this point of view, Tang Yi felt that his knowledge of basic Chinese dicine was not as good as the Dr. Lu in the videos.
After pondering for a while, Tang Yi went to the director’s office, and after obtaining a half-day leave, he left the Traditional Chinese dicine Hospital and headed straight for Lu Jiu’s clinic.
After Lu Jiu beca famous, his clinic in the urban area of Jianghan City was no longer a secret. People ca in an endless stream every day to queue up, making it a unique scenery on Garden Street.
Before long, Tang Yi arrived at Garden Street, and even before he saw the front of Lu’s Clinic, he noticed a crowd gathered around a spot.
Without a doubt, this must be Lu’s Clinic.
As he approached, Tang Yi found that he couldn’t squeeze in at all.
Not only was the clinic crowded, but the entrance was also jam-packed.
Tang Yi initially wanted to get a number and go in to take a look, but after so inquiries, he realized the queue was already over a hundred. Even if he got a number today, it would probably take three or four days for him to see the doctor.
Originally planning to have a discussion with Lu Jiu, Tang Yi now had no choice but to turn back.
However, just as he was about to leave, a man in his thirties quietly approached him.
"Buddy, need a number?"
Huh?
Tang Yi didn’t understand his aning.
The man emphasized again, "Need a number? Number 27, you can go in and see Dr. Lu right away, how about it?"
A scalper!?
Tang Yi stared at him in surprise.
It wasn’t the scalper’s identity that surprised him, but the fact that such a small clinic actually had scalpers, which was beyond his expectations.
Could it be that Dr. Lu’s skills had reached the level where even scalpers were targeting them?
It’s a well-known fact that scalpers only erge if there’s profit to be made. Many large hospitals’ expert clinics have scalpers, and so expert numbers can get raised from five to six hundred to one or two thousand, which is not surprising in hospitals.
Yet, a small-town clinic having scalpers was indeed incredible to Tang Yi.
"How much?" Tang Yi asked.
The man, seeing Tang Yi’s interest, raised an eyebrow, "Not much, two hundred!"
Two hundred?
Why don’t you just rob soone!!
Anger flashed in Tang Yi’s eyes.
However, to the man, this expression was nothing unusual, as he had seen it countless tis as a scalper.
"Hey, don’t say it’s expensive. That amount isn’t even enough for a check-up at a hospital. Just a few days ago, there was soone who felt both cold and hot, who had been visiting hospitals for five or six years without any results. Doctors diagnosed it as a neurological problem. But at Dr. Lu’s, he got almost completely adjusted with just one dose of dicine, and he was back the next morning, expressing his gratitude to Dr. Lu. If you don’t believe , just ask around, people would know."
"And there was a woman who had a headache for a month that didn’t improve with painkillers, but after a few needles from Dr. Lu, she was cured on the spot. This is also true, I’m not lying one bit, you can ask. Honestly, Dr. Lu’s numbers are getting harder to obtain each day. Every ti the numbers refresh, people start queuing from three or four in the morning. Today is the day new numbers are issued. It took a lot for to get this one, and if you get treated today, two hundred isn’t expensive at all."
"Think about it, Dr. Lu’s numbers have already reached over a hundred. If you get a number, it’ll be at least three or four days later. Even if you get one, you’ll have to endure your sickness for three or four days. Calculating to fifty a day, that’s not expensive, right? It’s really not. As long as your illness is cured, what’s a little money, right?" The scalper persisted in persuading. What he referred to as a number refresh was when over a hundred numbers were called, and Lu Jiu had to reissue number cards, making that day a frantic rush for numbers.
Admittedly, the scalper’s depiction made Tang Yi more intrigued about this Dr. Lu.
He indeed wanted to have a look, but handing money to a scalper made him feel uncomfortable.
"What if I buy your number and Dr. Lu finds out, and he doesn’t treat ? Wouldn’t that be a big loss for ?" Tang Yi asked.
The scalper laughed, "He won’t, definitely not, I can vouch for Dr. Lu’s character."
Tang Yi was puzzled, "Is your guarantee serious? I’ve never heard of a guarantee based on soone else’s character!"
The scalper laughed, "We still have self-awareness about this. Character-wise, I may not be that noble, but Dr. Lu truly is. I’m not deceiving you; as long as you trust him, he’ll treat any ailnt you have. Just a few days ago, there was soone with breast cancer that allegedly spread to lung cancer, but Dr. Lu treated her without any hesitation!"
Breast cancer spreading to lung cancer?
He even dared to treat that!?
Tang Yi was dumbfounded!
Scam for money, right?
Based on his knowledge, Lu Jiu seed a bit fake!
"Can terminal illness really be guaranteed to cure?" Tang Yi frowned.
The scalper waved it off, "What are you thinking? Dr. Lu said it might not be cured but it’s worth a try. He advised that the doctor’s pronouncent of a death sentence is nothing; how long you live is up to you. In my opinion, even if it can’t be cured, those words at least sound comforting."
Interesting!
Tang Yi thought that he’d definitely be extrely busy in the coming days and wouldn’t have ti to jostle for a number. He made up his mind, "WeChat or Alipay?"
The scalper grinned ear to ear, "Either one works."
Two hundred.
Tang Yi still felt a bit distressed.
But the salary at the Traditional Chinese dicine Hospital was decent, and the family’s debt didn’t lack this two hundred, so for the chance to et an accomplished colleague, Tang Yi could afford this expense.
After paying and receiving the number card, Tang Yi quietly waited outside the clinic.
An hour later, a voice ca from inside the clinic.
"Next, number 27!"
Tang Yi’s heart raced!
Finally, it’s ti!
