There was a doctor sitting in the room. He was in his forties. When he saw the patient coming, he asked, "What's wrong with the child?"
"Doctor, we don't know what the disease is, but the child's head is a bit big!"
"What? The head is a bit big? Let me see!"
Looking at it this way, the doctor was a little confused.
"Oh, what kind of disease is this? I've never seen it before!"
The other party frowned and listened for a long time with a stethoscope. He then pried Liu Lang's mouth open and took a few glances, but the result was still unclear.
Although this hospital is very famous, in this era there were few fluoroscopy machines in the whole country, let alone advanced equipment such as CT. Doctors relied on experience to treat patients, and they had never seen such a disease as a big head.
"Wait a minute, I'll go find two people to take a look!"
The other party immediately stood up and walked out, and within a short time two doctors were called.
The three of them looked left and right, and after ten minutes they came to the conclusion: they couldn’t understand!
"We can't understand this child's illness! If not, go to Shencheng and have a look!"
The doctors shook their heads and told the truth.
"Well, these doctors still have some medical ethics!"
Liu Lang was a little surprised. A doctor who could tell the truth was at least not bad in medical ethics. Anyway, he was much better than the doctors he had seen.
"What? Go to Shencheng? Doctor, is my son's illness serious?"
Liu Lang's father was a little worried. Could it be that his son had some serious illness?
"We have never seen this child's illness. There should be nothing wrong with his body. It should be some kind of intractable disease. It's hard to explain."
A doctor shook his head and said.
"Difficult and complicated diseases? What should I do?"
My mother was dumbfounded when she heard this, and her eyes turned red and tears almost fell out.
"Oh, by the way, I heard that Lao Wangtou specializes in treating difficult and complicated diseases. Why not let him take a look?"
Suddenly a doctor said.
"Old Wangtou? What kind of disease can that stinky Old Nine treat?"
Another person said with some disgust.
"Didn't he always say that he used to be a miracle doctor? Let him see it now. If he doesn't see it well, he won't brag when he sees us again!"
Another person replied.
"Well, okay, then let him take a look... Come on, follow us with your child in your arms, and let us, an old doctor, take a look!"
Without any explanation, the three people walked towards the back with Liu Lang's parents. They first walked out of the building, turned a few corners and arrived at a mud house in the backyard. The house was dilapidated, the windows had no glass, and even the door was crooked.
It looks like an abandoned house.
"Old Wangtou, are you there?"
A doctor knocked on the broken door.
"Who is it?"
A voice came from inside, and it sounded very old.
"I'm Du Xian. There's a patient in the hospital. We don't know what the disease is. We want you to take a look!"
"Well, come in!"
"Crunch!"
The doctor struggled to open the broken door, and several people walked in.
The house is not big. There is a wooden table with only three legs. There is a wooden bucket under the other corner. There is also a wooden bed in the corner of the room with bedding on it. The bedding is very clean, but it has been washed too often.
The original color could not be seen. There was a cabinet over two meters high nailed in the corner. The cabinet was filled with books. Liu Lang even saw a few thread-bound books at a glance. They must have been very old.
There is a man sitting on a chair in front of the table. He is an old man, probably over seventy years old. His hair and beard are both snow-white. He is wearing reading glasses. He is holding a cigarette paper in his left hand and a cigarette paper in his right hand.
There were tobacco leaves in a cloth bag. He put the tobacco leaves in the cigarette paper, rolled it, stretched out his tongue and licked it, turned it between his fingers a few times to make a cigarette, and then put it in his mouth.
A match.
"Zi la!"
I lit the cigarette with a match, and after a few puffs, a choking smell suddenly filled the room.
"What's the disease?"
The old man slowly raised his head and looked at the few people who came in.
"Cough cough cough!"
The three doctors were coughing continuously due to the smoke.
"The smell of smoke is so strong!"
Liu Lang also suffered from the smoke. There were very few cigarettes in this era, and many smokers smoked dry tobacco, which is pure natural tobacco leaves without any additives. The smell is strong and cannot be tolerated by ordinary people.
Liu Lang's parents also wanted to cough, but they endured it.
"Old Boss Wang, look at this child!"
Of these three doctors, one of them was Mr. Wang when he spoke, and another was Mr. Wang when he was silent. They didn't take each other seriously either inside or outside their words.
The other party didn't care, so he stood up and walked to Liu Lang.
"Um!"
Liu Lang's head is indeed larger than that of ordinary children. Even a blind person can see it. The old doctor was obviously a little surprised when he saw it!
"Let me look at this child...!"
The old man reached out and took Liu Lang out.
It was already July, and the weather was very hot. Liu Lang only wore a pair of cotton clothes and trousers, which were crotchless, so he was completely naked.
"This child is one year old!"
The other party asked while looking at Liu Lang.
"Doctor, it's just been three months!"
Mother replied.
"What? Three months? How is that possible?"
The old man was startled.
"Yes, the child was born on March 30th!"
Father answered.
"Oh! My dear, a three-month-old child is older than a one-year-old child. What did you give him to eat? It seems that the brain was caused by eating. It's not easy to deal with!"
"I haven't eaten anything! He just has teeth. He usually drinks some millet porridge, and sometimes I buy him some pastries, but nothing else!"
"What? Teeth grow in three months? That's weird!"
This time the old man was even more surprised. He had never heard of a child growing teeth at three months.
"Let me see how many teeth you have?"
The old man wanted to ask that guy to pry open Liu Lang's mouth and look at his teeth, but as soon as he finished speaking, Liu Lang made his mouth grow bigger and even deliberately exposed his teeth!
"Um?"
The old man was stunned for a moment and looked at Liu Lang carefully.
"This child...!"
Liu Lang was face to face with the old man, and he could even see his beard clearly. What impressed Liu Lang most was the glasses the other man was wearing. The lenses were thicker than the wine bottles, plus the books placed in the cabinets in the room.
, this person should be an old Chinese medicine doctor and has read many books.
These scholars, especially those who have received previous traditional education, have suffered a lot in this era. They have been criticized, beaten down, and even called "stinky old nine". Many of them even died of unbearable humiliation.
It seems that this old man is such a person. The country should have just rehabilitated him, but other doctors seem to look down on him.
"This child's eyes...!"
The old man and the young man looked at each other. The old man looked into Liu Lang's eyes and said thoughtfully.
