I rolled around in pain and had a fever. "What's the cause?"

"It's an old problem for him. He often suffers from pain. In the past, he had painkillers to relieve the pain. Today, he has finished the painkillers. I have to go buy him some more." Shen An took the money and hurried out.

"Dad, don't worry, I'll go with you to take a look." It's not certain whether you can buy medicine at this time of night. The barefoot doctor in the next village can only prescribe gentian violet for you.

Shen An immediately shook his head, "No, Zhizhi can't be home alone."

"Don't worry, Dad. Zhizhi just fell asleep. I went to check on him. I'll come back soon if he's okay." Gu Qian went back to the room and took a look. Little Zhizhi was sleeping like a pig. Plus, he gave him a massage before going to bed to make sure he wouldn't wake up.

Shen An leaned over and took a look. "Then let's hurry up and go see it. It will be beneficial for your future medical studies."

"Let's go." The two men locked the door and ran away, but Shen An ran towards the barefoot doctor's house.

Gu Qian ran towards the cowshed.

"Oh, Qianqian, why are you here?" Li Ping, who was feeding the pigs, heard footsteps and looked over here carefully, only to see Gu Qian's figure.

"I came over to check. Where's the patient?" Gu Qian looked around. Wasn't the patient rolling on the ground in pain? Why was there no sound?

"There's someone in the room, please keep your voice down." Li Ping lowered her voice and said, "Zhizhi, is your dad home?"

"Zhizhi is asleep. I came to see her. My dad went to buy medicine." Gu Qian walked towards the room next to the cowshed. There was a candle lit in the room. It was dim and there was no sound.

"Oh, I really admire you two. You are so generous to leave the child alone at home." Li Ping pulled up the wooden barrel and poured the pig feed into the trough, then turned around and ran home.

"Mom, you go back first. I'll stay here and take a look." Gu Qian shouted and turned to walk into the room.

The four awake people in the room were a little confused by the person who just came in.

A middle-aged man with broken glasses quickly stood up and asked, "Who are you looking for, girl?"

Gu Qian looked inside the room. There were three men and two women. The one lying down was Old Man Chen whom he had met during the day. An old lady with silver hair was sitting beside the bed, holding his hand.

Gu Qian walked to the bedside naturally, "I came to take a look. I heard that someone fainted from the pain. I have never seen anything like this."

Old Mr. Chen was lying on the bed with his eyes closed. He was obviously unconscious, otherwise he would not have had no reaction to Gu Qian's words.

However, Gu Qian's words made the heavy atmosphere in the room a little better.

Mr. Lu next to him smiled and said, "Old Chen, I didn't expect that even at your age, you still opened the eyes of your child. This can be regarded as a boost to the child's knowledge."

"Child, you are Xiao Li's daughter-in-law, right? Go back quickly so late at night. The children are still at home. Don't come here unless necessary." Grandma Hu, who was sitting beside the bed, said kindly.

"Grandma, I'm Gu Qian. If you don't mind, can you let me see the old man?"

"Oh, a newborn calf is not afraid of a tiger. Xiao Shen just came to exchange the medical books today, and he will be able to see patients tonight. Hurry up, Sister Hu, let the child see it, it won't hurt." The middle-aged woman next to her hurried over to help the old lady up.

Gu Qian sat down directly, put his hand on his pulse, and his expression became serious.

My tendons and veins are blocked, and I feel unbearable pain every time the weather changes. Plus, the kidney stones have fallen off and stuck together. No wonder I fainted from the pain.

I guess this situation has been going on for a long time. If it is not dealt with, the people behind it will die from the pain.

"Grandma Hu, I want to treat Mr. Chen. Are you at ease?" Gu Qian asked the family members next to him for their opinions.

Everyone in the room was puzzled. If I remembered correctly, the girl had just started to recite the soup recipe song.

Mr. Lu asked politely, "You've only been learning for one day, is this okay?"

"Whether it works or not is better than dying in pain. If the family members agree, I will go ahead. If not, I will leave first."

Everyone looked at Hu Nan, waiting for her decision. "Okay, show it to him. It's definitely better than the current situation."

Gu Qian took out the acupuncture bag directly from his trouser pocket.

Without paying attention to the shocked reactions of the people around him, he quickly found the acupuncture point and inserted the needle.

The old man was injured by shrapnel stuck in his body. It has probably become integrated into his flesh over the years. He doesn't feel anything normally, but he suffers when the weather changes.

Acupuncture alone is not enough for this. If conditions permit, medicated baths and compresses can improve the situation.

It is difficult to cure it completely, after all, shrapnel cannot become a part of a person.

It is even more difficult to take it out through surgery. The injury must have been treated at that time, and the shrapnel could not be taken out then. It is even more difficult to take it out now. Besides, the old man is not young anymore, it is better for him to receive treatment than to suffer that pain.

The four people next to him originally thought that Gu Qian was just taking a look, but they didn't expect Gu Qian to start the acupuncture directly. They immediately held their breath and dared not disturb him. They also held the candle closer to Gu Qian.

First, relieve the pain of the kidney stones, give the patient an acupuncture injection, and then start giving the patient another acupuncture injection to treat the pain of the shrapnel when the time is up.

Hu Nan looked at her husband, who was pricked by the needle like a hedgehog, and her hands trembled uncontrollably. "Girl, how is he? Is he okay?"

After what Gu Qian did just now, they all understood that this girl was definitely not a novice.

They are all experienced. A novice may not even be able to pierce the flesh with the golden needle.

Not to mention acupuncture where the entire needle is inserted almost immediately.

"It's okay, it's an old problem. After it gets better, let him drink more water and move more. If there are kidney stones, it will be fine after the stones come out." Gu Qian was very calm. Most of the people who can cry out in pain are not in immediate danger of death.

"That's good, that's good." Hu Nan felt relieved. They lived here and there was no doctor. In the past, they just took painkillers when they felt pain. They had no idea what the situation was. They could only pray that they could live one more day.

Now that Gu Qian has seen it, they feel much more relieved.

Half an hour later, Gu Qian pulled out the needle and his temperature dropped a little, but he was still not awake.

As Gu Qian was removing the needle, he explained, "He will wake up in half an hour. Give him some warm water to drink then. My dad will bring some medicine over later. It's up to him whether he takes it or not."

"Okay, okay, thank you." Hu Nan responded quickly.

Gu Qian walked out quickly, "I'm leaving now. I'll bring you some hot compress medicine tomorrow."

"What about the medicine money?"

"No need to pay for the medicine, thank you for the book." Gu Qian waved his hand without turning his head.

"I never thought there would be a doctor skilled in using gold needles in a mountain village like this. During my family's heyday, I only met one doctor who used silver needles. Gold needles are too soft and most people can't use them." Old Master Lu watched the man leave and said with a sigh, "Old Chen is definitely fine now. Sister Hu, don't worry."

"But when Xiao Shen came to exchange the books, didn't he say that his daughter-in-law had just started studying medicine?" Xin Yiren asked in confusion.

"It's not a good thing to be good at Chinese medicine nowadays. Just like us, the little girl may have considered this. Let's not tell this to anyone else." After Hu Nan finished speaking, the whole room fell silent.

"Okay, don't tell anyone about this."
