Chapter 186: Difficult reversal of life and death mentality
"Hey~, eh~, hello~, you are so handsome~"
In the room where Liu Hongtao's family lived, Zhou Siqing came as a guest. She happily teased the little baby boy who was already active. She felt relaxed and began to feel that her life was full of sunshine again.
The little baby boy was finally rescued, and the association in her mind earlier also hinted to her that she would eventually be able to defeat the disease!
Therefore, at this time, such a psychological hint that no one knew about was quietly changing her mood.
After teasing the little boy for a while, she walked out of the room and looked at Li Duanyang and Qin Linlin who were chatting by the car outside the gate of the courtyard. She felt envious for a while, and then went downstairs to boil medicine for herself.
Now she has learned how to prepare medicine for herself, and is also familiar with the pharmacology and efficacy of the medicines Li Duanyang dispensed to her.
This gave her more confidence in these medicines. Sometimes after drinking the medicine, she would think for a while about how those medicines nourished qi and blood in her body, how they promoted qi and blood circulation and removed blood stasis, how they removed dampness, phlegm, and meridians, and how they eliminated phlegm and meridians.
Strengthen and dissipate knots and slowly eliminate cancerous tumors...
Then, she intuitively felt that the situation in her body was getting better day by day...
Of course, this is not necessarily true and objective, and she sometimes has this kind of doubt, but gradually, the mentality of always believing gets the upper hand...
Recently, her appetite and food intake have been okay, her bowel movements are basically normal, and her liver and ascites have rarely occurred, but the pain still exists from time to time.
On the one hand, this pain should be caused by the tumor compressing the nerves and blood vessels, and on the other hand, it should be caused by the struggle between the healthy energy in the body and the evil energy and blood stasis.
In addition, medicines that dissipate and dissolve tumors will naturally cause pain.
As long as there was a bright side to the pain, she could bear it.
Sometimes the pain is unbearable, and Li Duanyang's massage and acupuncture can greatly relieve her pain and allow her to persist.
Recently, her interests began to shift. Music and literature were no longer her favorites, and her major was temporarily put aside. Instead, she became obsessed with traditional Chinese medicine.
This was something she had never thought of before. One day she would become obsessed with medicine, and she would become obsessed with Chinese medicine, which she had always been unfamiliar with.
What is yin and yang, qi and blood, what is cold and heat, what is false and true on the surface, these things were very ancient, unscientific and even ridiculous in her previous vague understanding. Only now did she discover that they are so real, objective and dialectical.
!
It turns out that in her knowledge structure, she was missing such a very important piece of maintaining and conditioning herself!
Maybe if she had studied Chinese medicine a few years earlier, she would have paid great attention to her own health and understood the importance of taking care of herself. She also knew how to take care of herself, so she might not have contracted this cancer...
She had always regarded herself as a quasi-intellectual elite, but now she felt that 60 to 80% of the knowledge base she possessed was forced into her head by others.
Most of this is of no use to her personally. She just acts as a gene carrier for thousands of people in this society to pass on this knowledge. And the place where she has used this knowledge the most so far is in the examination room.
It's just a stepping stone.
The real her, even from the perspective of knowledge, is really poor.
Therefore, from now on, she feels that it is necessary to re-understand, select and rebuild her knowledge structure.
Then let her start by adding a lot of knowledge about traditional Chinese medicine.
…
Zhou Siqing was boiling medicine for herself while letting her thoughts wander like this.
Ding~, a WeChat message came up on her mobile phone: "Junior sister, what should you do if you suspend school?"
It's Wang Muchao, who is studying for a PhD. He usually calls her junior sister, but in fact he has always wanted to pursue her.
"I'm sick." Zhou Siqing replied briefly.
"What's the disease?" the other party asked again, "Is it serious? Where are you now? I'll go see you."
"?畕."
In traditional Chinese medicine, cancer belongs to the category of accumulation of lumps, so it is more appropriately called lumps.
The main cause of the disease is a weak constitution and weak righteousness, which leads to the invasion of six evil poisons and the formation of lumps over time.
"What kind of disease is this? Let's talk in human terms." The other party sent a picture of a frowning person.
"The imbalance of yin and yang in the internal organs of the body and the dysfunction of the qi mechanism will cause the coagulation and blockage of qi, phlegm, food, dampness, blood, etc. and cause them to clot." Zhou Siqing replied.
"What is the name of the disease in Chinese medicine?" the other party asked again, "What specific disease is it?"
Zhou Siqing smiled, not many young people today understand traditional Chinese medicine, and some people don’t even have a partial understanding of traditional Chinese medicine.
When I was told the name of a TCM disease, they had no idea what it was, including Wang Muchao, who was currently studying for a PhD.
"The name of the Western medicine disease is liver cancer, late stage." Zhou Siqing replied, taking a photo of the "judgment" issued to her by the hospital and sending it to the other party.
The other party didn't reply for a long time. After about ten minutes, he replied: "Junior sister, please take good care of your doctor. I will visit you another day."
another day?
Haha, all Chinese people know that another day means no day.
That's good, I no longer have to bother chatting with this "senior brother".
From the day she received the "judgment" from the hospital, she knew that one day she would eventually have all her contacts fade away from her life circle, and she would eventually become a transparent person in this society.
So from that day on, she planned her destination, to go to the seaside, or to an uninhabited mountain to finally end her life.
But she didn't expect that when she was making her last struggle that was almost destined to be in vain, she would meet a strange man like Li Duanyang - with magical and even weird medical skills, and a strange feeling for her.
Warm-hearted.
This was almost beyond her understanding, but she was kept in this magical clinic, completely disrupting her final plan for her life...
Is it raw?
Is it death?
She seems to have great hope for life now...
Zhou Siqing withdrew her thoughts and focused on decoction. The medicine pot made a clicking sound, and a strong medicinal fragrance wafted out.
Now Zhou Siqing can even smell the smell of several medicines.
Bupleurum, this traditional Chinese medicine has been mistaken by her for a Western medicine, an injection for colds.
It wasn't until she came to Li Duanyang and saw that this medicine was included in the prescription he prescribed for her that she realized that Bupleurum was a traditional Chinese medicine.
This is a commonly used medicine that is used to relieve external symptoms. It has pungent, bitter and slightly cold properties and returns to the liver, gallbladder and lung meridians. It has the effects of dispersing and reducing fever, soothing the liver and relieving stagnation, and promoting Yang Qi.
Undoubtedly, this Bupleurum plays an extremely important role in treating her disease, because its main effect is on the liver and gallbladder.
Its medicinal properties are bitter and pungent powder with aromatic and sparse properties. It can disperse the evil heat and stagnation of Qi in the liver and gallbladder meridian, and plays an extremely important role in regulating her current internal environment of the liver and gallbladder.
Therefore, when Zhou Siqing smelled the fragrance of Bupleurum, she felt very friendly, as if she were an old friend.
Then came skullcap, red ginseng... Zhou Siqing closed her eyes. As soon as she carefully identified the taste of each medicine, she felt that her mood immediately improved again. Some of the unhappiness that Wang Muchao had caused her just now dissipated in her chest after a while.
