Quick Wear: Lu Ming She Has Many Children and Blessings

Chapter 72 After the Control Group is Almost Finished 7

Although Lu Ming has explained that the will-o'-the-wisp is actually phosphorus fire and how phosphorus fire is formed, people still firmly believe that it is the will-o'-the-wisp.

"Yier, can you ask that master to take a look at Yingjie?" the old lady said worriedly.

Ever since Ying Jie'er came back from Jiangnan, she has been in a very depressed mood and her health has been getting worse.

When the grandmother and granddaughter met a few days ago, the old lady was almost frightened by her appearance: her skin was sallow, her body was thin, and even getting out of bed and walking had become extremely difficult. It looked like she was on the verge of death!

Since the accident, the family has invited many doctors to treat her, but everyone said that Ying Jie'er is not sick.

Even when the imperial physician was invited, he simply said that she was hungry. But how could that be possible? Ying Jie'er's appetite was almost twice that of a normal person. Even if she wanted to find fault, she couldn't lie!

The doctors really couldn't figure out the cause of the disease, and they didn't want to take any risks, let alone offend the Song family, so they all made excuses, saying that the patient might have been possessed by evil spirits.

The old lady actually believed this ridiculous reason.

So she began to look for Taoist priests and monks to exorcise the evil spirit for her granddaughter.

However, as the days passed, Ying Jie'er's condition became more and more serious. She recently fell into a coma and could only be kept alive with precious medicinal herbs every day.

Now those fake Taoists have all been captured by Song Yi and are being dealt with according to the law, and the crime of taking human lives is even more serious!

As soon as the old lady heard the news about Master Youzhen, she could no longer sit still and became extremely anxious.

Although Song Yi was a scholar, he always scoffed at the belief in ghosts and gods, and he didn't believe in those charlatans.

But since this was about his own daughter, and thinking of Jin Luming's confident and calm demeanor today, he wondered, what if? What if she really had a solution?

He was a little desperate and wanted to try any possible means, so he immediately sent someone to ask Jin Luming for help.

When Lu Ming heard that Song Yi sent someone to invite her to his home to treat his illness, she felt a little puzzled.

If you are sick, you should go to a doctor. What's the point of going to a girl like her? She is not a doctor!

Later, she heard from someone that the old lady of the Song family suspected that her granddaughter was possessed by a ghost and wanted to ask her to go over and take a look.

Now, Lu Ming was really helpless.

She had explained clearly that there were no ghosts in the world and that everything could be explained by science, so why did these people still believe that she could catch ghosts?

It seems that the ancient society had very little knowledge of science. No wonder those Taoists and monks were so popular in ancient times. They were so accurate in cheating people.

Lu Ming thought to himself that since even the doctor could not diagnose Song Yi's daughter's illness, the problem might lie somewhere else.

She asked tentatively: "Fubao, do you have any specific information about Song Yi's daughter?"

Although Fubao wanted to earn these points, unfortunately he hadn't seen the person, so he could only helplessly say: "No, I haven't seen the person in person, so I can't generate any information.

Seeing the visitor's look that would not tolerate any refusal, I had to go to his home to see if he could be cured. After all, he was a second-rank official.

Lu Ming didn't have anything to prepare, so he gave a few instructions and followed the servants to the Song Mansion.

As soon as she stepped into the gate of the Song Mansion, she was warmly welcomed by Old Madam Song and taken directly to Song Ying's boudoir.

Lu Ming was not in a hurry to check it out right away. She wanted to understand more about Song Ying's condition.

Besides, she didn’t know any of the ancient Chinese medical techniques of observation, listening, questioning and palpation.

"Have you seen a doctor before? What did they say?" Lu Ming asked softly.

When Mrs. Song heard this, her eyes became moist and she began to cry, "We invited many doctors to see her, even some imperial physicians, but they all said she was not sick. They suspected that my sister Ying was possessed by a ghost, so they asked the master to come and take a look."

Hearing the word "master", Lu Ming twitched his mouth and felt a little helpless.

She paused and continued, "Did they mention any other possible reasons? Was there no problem at all?"

Looking at the girl lying on the bed with a sallow face and a thin body, Lu Ming could tell that this was not normal even though he didn't know any medical skills. How could she not be sick?

The old lady hesitated for a moment and then said, "They said they were hungry."

hungry?

Lu Ming frowned. Who would believe this?

The daughter of an official family is almost starving to death. This is simply a joke!

Lu Ming did not show it, but just silently observed the sallow-faced, thin girl lying on the bed.

From her appearance, she was obviously malnourished. How could she not be sick?

"Fubao, can you see what's going on?" Since it's not a symptom, there must be other reasons.

"Well, she should have eaten raw river fish. To put it simply, it's a parasitic disease. She'll be fine after eating some Croton tiglium." Fubao was also speechless. He didn't expect that this answer was so interesting.

Worm accumulation and parasitic diseases are not a serious problem in modern times, but they were incurable in ancient times.

I just don't know whether the Xia Dynasty had the medicinal herb Sijunzi.

Thinking of this, Lu Ming directly told the servant about the medicinal ingredient and asked him to go to the pharmacy to get it quickly.

Quisqualis chinensis is a fruit that grows on a mushroom-like plant. The shape of this fruit is very similar to the Chinese medicinal herb Gardenia, and somewhat similar to the Chinese medicinal herb Terminalia chebula.

The fruit tastes sweet but has a fragrant aroma.

Although there is no record of Siberian gentian in the Xia Dynasty, it was not uncommon for it to be mistakenly picked because of its similar appearance to the other two medicinal herbs.

After getting the herbs, Lu Ming immediately took out five of them and ordered someone to grind them into powder, ready to give to the patient. At the same time, she asked the doctor to prescribe a dose of herbal medicine for diarrhea, so that the parasites could be excreted from the body with diarrhea.

"Okay, let the patient take the medicine later, and he will show a response soon. Let's all step aside for now!" Lu Ming ordered.

After asking about the usage of the medicine, perhaps with the mentality of trying everything possible, Song Yi had someone pry open Ying Jie'er's mouth and force the medicine into her mouth. Fortunately, Ying Jie'er did not reject the medicine and swallowed it all.

After feeding the medicine, the entire Song family gathered in the room waiting for the results.

Luming was more cunning and ran outside early.

Sure enough, not long after she left, several farting sounds were heard in the room.

It was not until the afternoon that Ying Jie'er's condition finally stabilized and her room was moved to a new one.

Lu Ming finally breathed a sigh of relief when he learned that Ying Jie'er had woken up and her condition had improved greatly.

After seeing the people, he looked at Ying Jie'er who was able to sit up and eat, and gave them instructions.

"Miss, you should avoid eating raw or half-cooked river food in the future, and wash vegetables, fruits and melons thoroughly. Take five quince seeds every three or four days, three times in a row. Eat a lighter diet..."
