Asking Xu Liang to help him throw away the stool as well, Qin Jiang took a new one from the pharmacy and placed it in front of the consultation table. He also took out the medicine and handed it to Wang Kai.
“Scan the code to pay. The total is one thousand seven hundred, including the price of that stool.”
One thousand seven hundred kuai was a considerable expense for a university student.
But fortunately, this matter didn’t involve his parents knowing about it, so paying the money was no big deal. It is what it is.
Ding.
[Detected that the host spoke frankly to the patient, disclosed the patient’s concealed condition, and greatly helped the patient. Mission complete.]
[Congratulations to the host for receiving the reward: Legendary Mafeisan.]
Seeing the reward the system gave this time, Qin Jiang’s eyes widened instantly, and he was extremely excited.
Mafeisan!
It actually gave him the long-lost Mafeisan!
Woo-hoo!
Take off!
This was no different from buying a lottery ticket and winning five million!
Qin Jiang was overjoyed.
You have to understand that current Western medicine anesthetics always have some side effects on a person’s nerves. Some with severe side effects can even leave patients with serious aftereffects.
But Mafeisan is different.
According to the formula provided by the system, this Legendary Mafeisan does not cause any damage to a person’s nerves, and its anesthetic effect is excellent.
Its only drawback is that Mafeisan always induces general anesthesia every time; it cannot achieve local anesthesia.
Just as Qin Jiang was thinking this, Xu Liang clutched his stomach, his expression one of extreme discomfort.
“Doctor, can you take a look at me? I feel a sharp, cramping pain in my stomach right now. I can barely hold on.”
Qin Jiang glanced at Xu Liang and noticed that his face was indeed pale, with quite a bit of cold sweat on his forehead.
This indicated that his pain was nearing its limit.
Qin Jiang asked, “Tell me, what’s your situation? Is it like Wang Kai’s? Did you insert something you shouldn’t have, or eat something you shouldn’t have?”
Xu Liang quickly waved his hands.
“No, doctor, I’m straight. How could I do something like that to myself?”
Upon hearing this, netizens immediately burst into laughter.
“Wouldn’t do something like that to yourself, so you turned your mischief towards your roommate, right?”
“Man, you tortured Wang Kai so badly, and you still claim you’re straight? Are you telling me you have no dietary restrictions?”
“Maybe he just thought it was fun at the time, but he didn’t expect Wang Kai to actually be bold enough to try it, which is why he got scared.”
Xu Liang kept insisting he was straight, and perhaps because of the camera, he seemed very honest.
Qin Jiang waved his hand and said,
“Alright, alright, I get that you’re straight. First, tell me, when did this stomach pain start?”
“It started this morning.”
Xu Liang quickly said, “Last night, I drank a lot with them. When I woke up, I felt a terrible stomach ache.”
“At first, I thought maybe after a couple of trips to the bathroom, it might stop hurting, because that’s how it’s been before.”
“But this time, I don’t feel the urge to go at all, yet my stomach hurts like crazy.”
Actually, many people have this sort of habitual diarrhea issue.
Some people get diarrhea as soon as they drink milk; some get it as soon as they drink alcohol. This is actually the body’s protective mechanism.
Once the diarrhea is over, the body’s protective mechanism stops, and naturally, the pain goes away.
But Xu Liang clearly didn’t fall into either of these categories.
“Put your hand here, I’ll take your pulse carefully.”
Hearing this, Xu Liang immediately placed his hand on the pulse cushion.
Xu Liang’s pulse was deep and tight, which should be caused by excessive cold drinks.
Cold pathogenic factors stagnating in the stomach’s function cause Qi blockage, leading to stomach pain.
The patient’s main symptoms would be a sudden, sharp pain in the stomach area, worsening with cold and relieving with warmth.
Qin Jiang asked, “Did you eat anything very raw or cold?”
Xu Liang thought for a moment and shook his head.
“No, we had barbecue last night. Maybe the beer was a bit cold, but everything else was fine.”
Qin Jiang pointed to the water dispenser nearby.
“Go, pour yourself a cup of hot water and drink it. See if your stomach feels better.”
Xu Liang did as Qin Jiang said.
But after drinking a cup of hot water, there was still no reaction.
Xu Liang said somewhat awkwardly, “Doctor, did I not drink enough hot water?”
Qin Jiang shook his head.
“If drinking hot water doesn’t help at all, then it’s probably not a problem of stomach cold.”
Qin Jiang continued his diagnosis for Xu Liang and found him to be quite Kidney Deficient.
However, Kidney Deficiency probably had nothing to do with his stomach pain.
Kidney Deficiency affects the brain; he should have a headache instead.
Thinking this, Qin Jiang casually asked a question.
“Do you usually get headaches?”
Xu Liang shook his head.
“No, never get headaches.”
“Hmm?”
Qin Jiang realized something was wrong.
“That’s strange. You’re this Kidney Deficient, yet your head doesn’t hurt?”
Upon hearing Qin Jiang say this, Xu Liang became extremely embarrassed.
The other three roommates couldn’t help but point at him and laugh.
After all, Xu Liang usually boasted endlessly in the dorm about how good his kidneys were.
And now, with one sentence from Qin Jiang, he was brought back down to earth.
Qin Jiang looked at Xu Liang’s eyes.
He noticed that the whites of his eyes were yellow, and his pupils seemed covered with a layer of white haze.
Qin Jiang inquired, “Do you watch things you shouldn’t watch every night?”
Xu Liang said with a wry smile, “Doctor, that shouldn’t be related to my stomach pain, right?”
“If you want treatment, answer me honestly.”
Xu Liang had no choice but to nod in acknowledgment.
“Yes, occasionally.”
“Occasionally?” Qin Jiang questioned again.
Xu Liang’s composure crumbled, and he gave up pretending, “Often, I watch it often. Is that okay now!”
Qin Jiang nodded with satisfaction.
As long as this kid told the truth, there was still hope.
Qin Jiang continued asking, “Why do you watch this kind of unhealthy stuff?”
“What I mean is, even if you want to watch, is there really a need to stay up late every night to do it?”
“Don’t you know that nighttime is precisely the best time to nourish the internal organs?”
“Staying up late to watch this stuff, not only do your internal organs not get rest, but they’re forced to work overtime. Over time, your body will break down.”
Xu Liang said a bit sheepishly, “Doctor, I don’t want to either, but my study pressure is high, and I often suffer from insomnia.”
“I can only get a good night’s sleep every night by relying on this method!”
Xu Liang’s words left all the netizens in the live broadcast room feeling incredulous.
“Man, did I hear that right? This guy uses this method to cure insomnia?”
“He’s kind of a genius. Isn’t it better to take some sleeping pills for insomnia? Why use a method that harms the body?”
“Sleeping pills harm the body too, and people can develop tolerance.”
“High study pressure is really tough. Everyone’s under a lot of pressure now. It’s just that this way of relaxing is not advisable. Young people, don’t follow suit.”
