  “Are they getting a divorce because they don’t have a child?”


  “Yeah. They’ve only been married for a few years!”


  “Sigh. Young people can just have children when they’re older!”


  The neighbors nearby understood more about the situation of the couple.

  In the house, Chen Wei was so excited that he was squealing and shrieking, because he had gotten back a man’s glory.

  “This is great! Great!”


  He was now thinking about how to tell his wife about this good news.

  No, no. There’s no need to rush. I have to go to Dr. Wang’s medical center and have another examination.

  The effect was so obvious that he had not even used up as much medicine as he should have for his second course of treatment. This left him pleasantly surprised.

  He did not rush to look for Wang Yao. Instead, he looked for his friend, Pan Jun.

  “Is there an effect already?”


  “Yes. I feel that I’ve already recovered. I want to ask Dr. Wang if he could……”


  “Okay. I’ll give him a call. Let’s make another trip there for him to have a look.”
……

  There was a rumbling sound. The road in the mountain village was still being widened. A seven-seater Wuling was moving on the road, carrying four or five elderly people.

  “Hey, is this the right place?”


  “This is the place. I’m not wrong.”


  The car continued to move along the road in between the mountains. They arrived at the mountain village where Wang Yao was, unaware of them.

  “This is the place. Keep going south!”


  The car entered the mountain village and kept moving until it reached the south of the village.

  “It’s a house with black tiles and white walls. That’s right!”


  They saw the one-of-a-kind house in the village.

  “Let’s get out of the car.”


  After they had gotten out of the car, it was clear that they were all old people in their fifties or sixties. They did not look particularly well, but perhaps it was because they had been in a long, bumpy car ride for an indeterminate amount of time.

  “We’re here. Let’s go in.”


  They walked up to the front of the door of the medical center, but they found out that the door was locked.

  “Why didn’t he open the door? Is he not in?”


  “This can’t be!” A few of the old people were startled.

  “We came such a long way. Could we have come for nothing?”


  They were not locals. They came from the neighboring Ju City and came here purposely to seek medical treatment. However, the person whom they wanted to meet was not available.

  “Do you have his contact number?”


  “No.”


  “I don’t have it either.”


  “Sigh. What are we going to do?!”


  “What’s going on?”


  Seeing that there were a few people waiting outside of Wang Yao’s newly-built house, the villagers were somewhat curious and they went forward to ask.

  “Excuse me, where’s owner for this building?” one of the middle-aged women took the initiative to ask the villagers first.

  “He went up the hill. Why are you looking for him?”


  “We’re looking for him to……”


  “Hey, isn’t that Wang Yao?” someone shouted.

  That’s when they saw a young man in plain clothes walking towards them from the mountain road a distance away.

  “Hey, he’s the person you’re waiting for.”


  “It’s great that he’s here!”


  Eh, why are there so many people?

  Wang Yao saw a few people waiting outside his medical center and the car parked not far away. He then walked faster.

  “He’s so young!”


  “Yes. Dr. Wang is a young man.”


  “Doctor?” The villagers who stood by the side were stunned.

  “You must be mistaken. He’s just a person who plants medicinal herbs. He’s not a doctor.”


  “What?!” The old people were dumbfounded.

  “Let’s go. We still have to go up the hill,” Wang Fengming, who was standing to the side, said. He knew that Wang Yao did not seem to want to reveal that he could treat illnesses to the villagers for the time being, so he dragged the people up the hill with him.

  “Let’s go.”


  “Uncle, are you going up the hill?” Wang Yao always took the initiative to greet the elders in the village when he ran into them.

  “Yeah. Those people said that they’re here to be checked out.”


  “I’ll go have a look!” Wang Yao replied.

  After Wang Yao got closer, an elder among the group went forward initially and greeted, “Hello, Dr. Wang.”


  “May I know who you are?”


  “My surname is He. I’ve asked you to treat my headache before at Renhe Clinic,” the elder answered with a smile.

  “Oh. Hello.” Wang Yao actually remembered nothing about this person.

  “These are some of the people from my village. I told them that you know how to treat headaches, so I took them here,” the elder explained.

  “Sss, where did you get my address from?”


  “I inquired about it.” The elder smiled affably.

  Haha. Wang Yao did not ask anything else.

  “Okay. Please come in then.”


  The elders entered the small courtyard.

  “Dr. Wang, your small courtyard is decorated pretty well.”


  “Thank you.”


  Wang Yao saw that the elders did not look too well.

  “Who’s first?”


  “I’ll go first,” a middle-aged woman among them said. “I’ve been suffering from headaches for five or six years. It’s better during summer, but it’s extremely bad during winter. I don’t even dare to get out of the house,” the elder explained.

  “Okay. I’ll have a look.”


  “The cold has entered your head,” Wang Yao said after diagnosing carefully.

  This could to be expelled using a milder medicine. Of course, Wang Yao had another way for now.

  Neixi.

  “Please sit down and I’ll give you a massage.”


  “Alright.”


  Wang Yao expedited the neixi in her body. He gently pressed and rubbed the old woman’s head using both of his hands.

  The head was the most important part of the human body. There were also a few very important acupoints on the head. One’s life might be in danger if there was any carelessness. Wang Yao had a diagram of the arteries and veins engrained in his mind. The diagram recorded the arteries, veins, and acupoints of the human head in detail. It recorded the spots that were used to treat illnesses, ways to exert strength, and methods of massaging.

  20 minutes had passed. The old woman’s head was already full of sweat. She felt as if her head was hot and swollen.

  “How do you feel?”


  “My head feels hot and swollen.”


  “Okay, good.”


  “Rest for a bit to the side. I’ll prescribe you a medicine.” After that, Wang Yao pondered for a while and prescribed a medicine which was used to expel the pathogenic cold, but he modified it a little to better fit her needs.

  He then took the medicine herbs, filled the prescription, and wrapped them up.

  He wrote down the method of taking the medicine and the things which she had to look out for.

  “This is for you. This is a treatment process. Your headache should be cured after making sure to follow through on the process.”


  This illness was actually not particularly difficult to treat. Of course, the method of treatment of Western medicine might not be effective.

  “Okay. Thank you,” the old woman replied with a smile.

  In fact, she already felt slightly better now that Wang Yao had given her a massage.

  “Can you please take a look at me?”


  The second patient was an old man.

  His headache was somewhat peculiar.

  “Grandpa, the cause of your headache did not arise from your head, it’s from your blood.”


  “My blood?”


  “Yes. This is a typical headache caused by The Three Highs,” Wang Yao explained with a smile.

  This illness could have been found out if he had gone to the hospital. Wang Yao did not know why he felt he had to come here.

  “Oh. They said the same thing when I went to the hospital. Do you have any good treatments?” the old man asked.

  Wang Yao was immediately speechless.

  “You should start from your diet and exercise. The key thing is to adjust your living habits. You don’t need to take any medicine for the time being,” Wang Yao explained. “I’ll write down some foods for you. You can have a look at it and try eating some of them daily.”


  Seeing that the old man was still a bit hesitant, Wang Yao gave the old man a list which specified a few simple things that he had to pay attention to. The important thing was to exercise, as well as to eat certain types of food.

  “You can eat more of these foods. They’ll help to improve your condition.”


  “Okay. Thank you.”


  The third patient was another old man.

  Sss!

  Wang Yao drew a mouthful of breath.

  “Grandpa, when did your illness start?”


  “Umm, I think it’s about three months ago.”


  “Didn’t you go to the hospital for checkup?”


  “No. Why?” the old man replied.

  Sigh. Wang Yao let out a sigh silently. This was currently a bad habit in a considerable amount of places, especially in rural areas. They did not go to the hospital for examinations when they were not feeling well. Instead, they endured it and resisted, hoping that perhaps the illness would disappear. If this was a common headache and cold, maybe it would pass. However, if it was some other illness, they might have missed the best treatment opportunity, which was a particularly grave error in some old people, like the old man in front of him.

  He had a tumor in his brain, but he did not go to the hospital for examination.

  “Spare some time and go to a standard hospital for a checkup.”


  “What? Aren’t you able to treat it?”


  “It’s not appropriate for me to treat it,” Wang Yao could only reply vaguely.

  “Young man, tell me the truth. What’s my illness?” the old man said. “I can take it.”


  “You should go to the hospital for a detailed examination as soon as possible.”


  Wang Yao concluded that the tumor was likely benign and that it was in the early stages. If a surgery was performed, the possibility of success would be relatively higher. He had not thought of any suitable medicine to suppress and remove the tumors. Perhaps the Japanese violet herb, which was used to remove ulcer sores, could help.

  “Alright. Thank you!” The old man was frank. He did not continue to ask questions.

  The fourth patient was a middle-aged woman. She looked the most unwell of all the people who came. Her face was yellowish and she had dark circles which were very serious.

  After taking a look, Wang Yao found out that the old woman had problems all over her body.

  Her internal organs were at in discord. She had a more severe cirrhosis, which was dangerous. It could turn into a tumor in the end. On top of that, she also had asthma. As for her headache, it was a small matter. This was because her body was weak and her channels and collaterals were obstructed, resulting in an insufficient blood supply to the head.

  “Aunty, you have to take care of your body properly,” Wang Yao said.

  “Okay!” the old woman responded.

  “You have a bad liver and there’s a problem with your trachea too. The cause of your headache is that your body is weak, so there is insufficient blood supply to your head.”


  “How should it be treated?”


  “I’ll prescribe you a medicine.”


  “Is it expensive?”


  “It’s about 500 yuan.” The price quoted by Wang Yao was actually very cheap.

  “Can it be cheaper?” the old woman asked. The price was still a little high for her.

  “How much money did you bring?”


  “300 yuan.”


  “I have some money here,” an elder who came with her said.

  “Yes. If it’s not enough, I have some here too. Her treatment is important!” an elder who came with her persuaded her.

  “Okay then. Please prescribe me the medicine.”


  “Alright.”


  Five people came in total, in which four of them were patients. The other one was the elder who took them here. His body was already in a good condition. Wang Yao gave him a look again and discovered that he had some kidney stones, but it was not serious. Wang Yao did not prescribe him any medicine and only told him to drink more water.

  It was already morning when he finished treating the elders.

  Phew, why did they come in a group?
