The old man's nails were very hard, and Lin Sanqi had to cut them very hard. After a while, a lot of black nail fragments accumulated at the bottom of the bowl.
Why is it black instead of transparent like plastic? Because the old lady is an old farmer and has to do farm work, how can her nails be clean?
After cutting her nails, Lin Sanqi, who was a bit obsessive-compulsive, wanted to take out a file and smooth the broken nails of the old lady, but Mr. Shi was urging her:
"Okay, okay, the patient is still waiting. Pour a little alcohol into the bowl and light it with fire."
Mr. Shi's instructions made everyone confused again, but the benefits of authority were reflected at this time, because no clown jumped out to question Wai Wai Wai.
Lin Sanqi did as he was told, and lit the alcohol with a match. Flames immediately burst out from the bottom of the bowl, and then his nails also started to burn, emitting a smell similar to plastic, which was very pungent.
Mr. Shi took the bowl and put it directly under the old lady's nose, letting the old lady inhale the black smoke from the nails.
"Suck hard, yes, don't stop. If you want to vomit, be patient and keep sucking..."
Lin Sanqi thought that the old man must have a reason for doing this. Maybe it was some kind of folk remedy, but he didn't know how effective it was?
Everyone had the same idea as Lin Sanqi, so they all got closer to see how the old lady would react.
Then, contrary to everyone's expectations, the old lady was sitting on the ground retching. After smelling the black smoke, her vomiting suddenly intensified. She probably couldn't stand the stench.
Just when everyone thought the remedy failed, the old lady exhaled heavily, and then the retching stopped immediately.
I stopped vomiting. Although I was very weak and slumped on the ground, I no longer felt like vomiting.
The crowd of onlookers immediately became commotion. Lin Sanqi’s eyes widened and she asked strangely:
"Old man, can smelling nail smoke stop hiccups? It's amazing."
Mr. Shi smiled and explained:
"When a person's fingernails are lit, they smell very bad, and the Qi drops rapidly. When inhaled into the throat, it is a sign that lung Qi is released first. This is in line with the principle that when a person wants to fall, he rises first, and when he rises, he falls. Do you understand?"

Lin Sanqi asked carefully: "Old man, does this mean fighting fire with fire?"
"Yes, that's what it means. Now I am in first aid, so I use local methods. If you are more particular, you should take 5% of musk, mix it into shredded tobacco, light it with fire and inhale it like a cigarette. The effect of treating hiccups will be better .”
Lin Sanqi felt so happy that she had mastered another traditional Chinese medicine recipe.
Although the old lady was still very weak, her retching stopped, and her family members were naturally ecstatic:
"Doctor, is my mother healed already? It's amazing. She'll be fine after just taking a few puffs of cigarettes. It's like the Capital Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine."
Mr. Shi waved his hand:
"It can only be said that it has stopped temporarily. I will prescribe another medicine for you. After you take it home, you can take one dose a day. Generally, you can recover in no more than 3 doses."
"Old god, thank you~~~"
“Thank you so much, my mother’s life is saved~~~”
Pan Ye had already obediently obtained paper and pen at this time. Mr. Shi had been promoted to master. Naturally, he did not need to write in his own hand, but asked his direct disciples to copy the prescriptions:
"Two taels each of roasted licorice, one tael each of aconite, dried ginger, and evodia. Note that these three herbs must be washed 7 times before use. Add three taels each of cloves and turmeric, and half a tael of red ginseng after stewing."
Lin Sanqi was fuming next to her again, thinking that Chinese medicine is really mysterious, why does it have to be washed 7 times? Is it okay to do it 5 times? Is it okay to do it 9 times?
Fortunately, he didn't say it out loud. If he did, he would have been beaten to death by the old man.
"After a quarter of an hour, add 6 qian of ginger juice, 20 jujubes, 3 jins of cold water, simmer over slow fire, take 1 jin of thick juice, take small amounts multiple times. Not only the prescription should be written down, but also the steps and precautions for decoction. Obviously, otherwise the effect will be very different.”
Although Pan Ye is a mass-produced traditional Chinese medicine intern at the university, he has some basic skills at least. His calligraphy is also pretty enough, and the prescriptions dictated by the old man are written clearly.
Mr. Shi nodded repeatedly, then looked up at the silly Lin Sanqi, and couldn't help but smile to himself.
He already knows that if he is looking for a closed disciple and a successor, Pan Ye is definitely qualified because of his aura and willingness to learn.
It seems that Lin Sanqi can only be regarded as a guarantee for his future survival, and he cannot expect too much. Of course, the old men will not expel Lin Sanqi from the school.
Lin Sanqi has Lin Sanqi’s utilization value.
In an emergency, life is important, and food is life. Lin Sanqi can provide food, and he is also the team leader who manages them. To put it harshly, the life and death of these 12 old men are controlled by Lin Sanqi.
If he wanted to deal with these old men, it would be reasonable and legal, and no one would be held accountable.
For example, let the old men work in the farmland, assign them the heaviest farm work, and give them nothing to eat until they finish the work. Will these old guys starve to death?
Who can say that Lin Sanqi is wrong? Maybe the superior unit would like to praise Lin Sanqi for his correct thinking and positive performance.
So as the saying goes, people become better with age. The old men knew that Lin Sanqi was valuable, so they naturally wanted to actively win over him.
Of course, there is still a basis of trust between the two parties. After all, Lin Sanqi is considered to be of a clean family, a child of a well-known family, and has a good character. Otherwise, the old men would not dare to give him the medical books for safekeeping.
At this time, Xiao Song from the pharmacy has come over with a bowl of concoction:
"Doctor Shi, the first party is here."
Mr. Shi walked back to the five children with intestinal tuberculosis and said to their families: "You should give them medicine immediately, and everyone else should get out of the way."
Lin Sanqi thought to herself, why are others moving out of the way?
After a while, he knew the answer, because after the five children were fed the medicinal soup, they all began to vomit violently within 5 minutes, and the smell of feces could even be smelled in the vomit...
Seeing the calm look on the old man's face, Lin Sanqi knew that the function of the first radish and sodium salt soup was to induce vomiting, which in Western medicine terms is gastrointestinal decompression.
Otherwise, the upper food residue will pile up in the intestines and stomach, and the middle intestine will be blocked and unable to pass down. Over time, the food residue will deteriorate and cause intestinal inflammation or necrosis.
Therefore, the first step is to induce vomiting of food residues to relieve stress and clear the intestines.
Mr. Shi saw that several children were almost vomiting. Xiao Song from the pharmacy brought the second ocher soup, so he asked the parents again:
"Okay, okay, don't feel bad for the child, the treatment is more important, drink this second decoction quickly."
According to Lin Sanqi’s knowledge of Western medicine, absolute fasting is required when intestinal obstruction occurs, including liquids, because this will aggravate gastrointestinal tract irritation and load.
This is another obvious difference between Chinese and Western medicine.
Parents are in a hurry and continue to give medicine to their children.
By this time, several children had vomited so much that they could no longer sit still and had to be held by their parents.
Poor parents in the world, the stench of vomit all over the floor is so stinky that only parents don't dislike it.
Oh, and with the heart of a doctor and a parent, the three old men also did not move away, but stayed by the child's side without even frowning.
Lin Sanqi and Pan Ye had no complaints and followed behind to observe the patient's reaction.
However, Lin Sanqi still quietly took out a bottle of Fengyoujing and wiped it next to his nose, and then secretly gave it to Pan Ye, preparing to use the smell of Fengyoujing to neutralize the stench of vomit.
After the medicine was poured down, within 10 minutes, the children's stomachs began to rumble, and the sound was very loud. It was definitely not the kind of rumble that occurs when the stomach is hungry.
Lin Sanqi was a little worried, "Old man, this is obviously a rapid increase in intestinal peristalsis. If you don't get a perforation, you will be in trouble."
Mr. Shi shook his head slightly and replied in a low voice: "It's okay, just keep an eye on it."
Before she finished speaking, the little girl Yang Erni suddenly groaned: "Mom, my stomach hurts again, oh~~~"
Just as Lin Sanqi was about to step forward to help, she suddenly heard Yang Xiaoerni fart an earth-shattering sound.
“Puff~~Puff puff puff puff~~~”
Lin Sanqi quickly retreated tactically and held her breath. Others said that loud farts don't stink, and smelly farts don't make a sound. This sentence didn't apply to Yang Erni at all.
Laymen watch the door, experts watch the excitement, whether it is Lin Sanqi, Pan Ye, or the onlookers of the traditional Chinese medicine hospital staff, they all breathed a sigh of relief at this time.
Because the sound of a stinky fart also means that the patient's intestines are clear.
Immediately afterwards, the other four children also started to fart, and Yang Xiaoshan even farted so hard that all the feces came out. Needless to say, there was a stench at the scene.
Lin Sanqi wanted to continue to retreat tactically, but found that the three old men did not move, so he had to quietly return to the original place.
After hearing the fart sound, Mr. Shi smiled proudly and said gently to his parents:
"Okay, the intestinal knot has been unblocked. Remember not to eat for a day and a night after you go back. Even if you have to eat, drink some porridge and eat lightly. It will be fine for safekeeping."
When the Yang family heard that their child was fine, they all knelt down and kowtowed excitedly:
"Thank you, thank you doctor!"
"You guys are the great benefactors of our family!"
Don't doubt it, even ordinary people know that intestinal knot was almost a terminal disease in ancient times or in this era, and it would eventually lead to death in pain.
These children were lucky enough to meet the four famous doctors in Peiping. If they met Lin Sanqi, a half-baked doctor, they would probably be dead.
Lin Sanqi scratched her head, but felt that there were some things she still had to say directly:
"You guys, please don't thank me. You'd better pay the medical expenses. Even if we don't earn your registration fees and consultation fees, at least we have to pay for the medicine, right?"
This is the first order from a traditional Chinese medicine hospital. If it is the first order, it will be free. Believe it or not, all patients in Changping will come to seek medical treatment for free tomorrow?
Public hospitals don’t have big incentives for opening. If you give this free or not free that, it’s hard for the people to fool you, so why can’t the hospital still operate?
The rules must be set at the outset, and relief for patients in need will be a matter of the future.
The Yang family and the Yan family were also very stubborn, and they nodded and bowed one by one: "Yes, yes, we will raise the money immediately!" (End of Chapter)
