Chapter 030: Reading Therapy
Standing on a tree branch, Wang Lanlan called into the room.
Liu Xing was sleeping soundly, but he was awakened by her voice, and he squinted at the time with sleepy eyes, 2:15 in the morning.
"Wang Lanlan, don't howl, in the middle of the night, I want to sleep. ”
"It's so boring to sleep, come out and look at the moon, the moon is very round tonight. ”
"Is the moon round or not, what does it matter to me?"
"You're a shooting star, and you're a natural pair with the moon, hehe. ”
"I'm too lazy to talk to you, I'm going to sleep. ”
"Hey, why are you lying down again?" Liu Xing, get up!" Wang Lanlan rolled her eyes and said, "If you don't get up, I'll sing and make noise for you!" After clearing his throat, he really started singing...... Wandering among the moon and white clouds...... The alleyways were empty at midnight...... I sat alone in a tree...... Sing loudly to you in bed...... Lalala...... Lalala...... ......"
"Wang Lanlan, are you sick, singing in the middle of the night?"
"Am I sick?" Wang Lanlan's thin eyebrows curled, and she didn't sing anymore or call anymore.
Suddenly, the surroundings fell silent, and the novel street at midnight was deserted, except for the lone orange street lamps on the side of the road.
Half-tilting her head, Wang Lanlan, who was sitting on a tree branch, looked at the full moon in the blue night sky alone, and was stunned.
After a while, she plucked a leaf from a longan tree with her little hands, tore the leaf little by little, and after tearing it, she picked a second leaf, and then tore it again.
Tearing more than a dozen leaves in a row, Wang Lanlan held her chin with her small hand, and continued to be stunned at Mingyue, not knowing what she was thinking.
"Ha-" I don't know how long it took, Wang Lanlan yawned, seemed to be sleepy, grabbed the branch with her little hand, shook, swung down, and fell to the ground, and then hummed a little song and left alone......
……
The next day, after breakfast, Liu Xing returned to his room, ready to continue his study of reading.
Liu Xing bent down and was about to take out the "Dragon Babu" hidden under the bed, when he swept his afterglow, he found a girl sitting on the longan tree outside the window, Wang Lanlan.
"Why are you here again?" Liu Xing walked to the window, "You didn't make enough noise last night?"
"Liu Xing, I want to tell you something. Wang Lanlan's immature face sitting on the branch became serious and said, "I'm really sick." ”
"It's not nonsense. ”
"Do you know what I'm sick with?"
"A terminal illness with no cure. ”
"No, I'm depressed. Wang Lanlan explained, "I went to the hospital in the morning to see a psychiatrist, and found that my psychology was really a little distorted, and the doctor said that I was depressed. ”
Liu Xing was slightly stunned: "Did you really go to the hospital to see a doctor?"
"Didn't you say I was sick last night, I didn't believe it, but after the doctor examined me, he found out that I was really sick. Wang Lanlan took out a white piece of paper with her small hand, "The doctor said that I had depression, and he prescribed a prescription." With that, he handed over the blank paper.
Liu Xing stretched out his hand to take the white paper, took a closer look, and found that this was indeed a prescription list of drugs prescribed by the hospital, but the prescription list was not written on the name of the medicine, but the name of the novel.
It reads as follows:
"Prescription of the Psychology Department of the First Hospital of Tianhai City"
Patient Name: Lanlan Wang
Patient gender: Female
Patient age: 16 years

Casual novels, two books and a course of treatment, soothing the mind, assisting in the treatment of insomnia, recommend "The Dream of Warmth".

……”
This is the first time in Liu Xingping's life that he has seen a prescription with novels as medicine, but in Huaxia, reading therapy has been popular for five years.
According to the research of modern reading psychology, reading novels can adjust and improve people's psychological state. If reading is used, the impact of the novel is even more significant.
Since five years ago, the medical community in China has begun to promote the use of reading therapy to treat some diseases, such as using funny novels to treat depression, campus novels to treat school boredom, romance novels to treat lovelorn disorder, and so on.
Theoretically, bibliotherapy is an effective psychotherapy with a wide range of applications. Of course, whether reading therapy is effective or not depends largely on the choice of novel. Only by picking the right novel can we really give full play to the curative effect of the novel.
"Liu Xing, I'm sick, what should I do now?"
"You're just mildly depressed, don't make a fuss. Liu Xing suggested, "Since the doctor has prescribed medicine for you, you should hurry up and go to the pharmacy to grab the medicine...... No, hurry up to the bookstore and buy novels, early treatment, early recovery. ”
"Will you accompany me to the bookstore?" Wang Lanlan snorted, "I'm afraid of buying fake books." If I buy fake novels, it will be equivalent to taking fake medicine, and the consequences will be unimaginable, and I may be ruined!"
What is the word "......"?
Although it was very annoying for this little girl to harass people to sleep in the middle of the night, the book "Engaging Elementary Tutorial" she gave really helped Liu Xing a lot.
Anyway, it's just a gesture, Liu Xing thinks he can help, and by the way, he will take the opportunity to inquire about "Engaging Advanced Tutorial" to see if he can borrow it.
"Okay, I'll go with you. ”
"I knew you'd say yes, hee-hee. ”
"By the way, do you have any money with you?"
"Don't worry, I won't let you pay my bills. ”
"You wait under the tree, I'll go downstairs now. ”
"Uh-huh!"
……
When I walked out of the door of the hotel, I found Wang Lanlan standing obediently under the longan tree waiting.
"Let's go. ”
Along Novel Street, the two walked in the direction of the south, Liu Xing walked in front, Wang Lanlan followed behind, and the two always maintained a distance of about five meters.
After walking for a while, Liu Xing felt awkward, immediately stopped, looked back, and found that Wang Lanlan had also stopped, and the distance between the two was still five meters.
"Can't you hurry up?" Liu Xing asked.
"I'm practicing tracking, you keep walking, leave me alone. Wang Lanlan said with a grin.
Liu Xing was a little speechless, this girl is giggling all day long, where is it like having depression?
After walking for a few minutes, the two came to Caiyun Bookstore, located at 119 Novel Street.
When I walked into Caiyun Bookstore, I found that a middle-aged woman was sorting out the bookshelves, it was the proprietress Huang Caiyun.
"Auntie, I want to buy books. Wang Lanlan stepped forward and said.
Huang Caiyun greeted him: "Little sister, what book do you want to buy?"
Wang Lanlan handed over the prescription prescribed by the hospital: "I want to buy novels to treat my illness." ”
After taking the prescription, Huang Caiyun looked at it.
"Auntie, do you sell the novels on the prescription in your store?" asked Wang Lanlan with concern.
After reading the title of the book on the prescription, Huang Caiyun said with a smile: "Little sister, the "Laughing Buds" and "Warm Dream" you want to buy are both common prescription novels, which are sold in major bookstores across the country, and our bookstore also sells them, can you get a set?"
Wang Lanlan nodded.
In a moment, Huang Caiyun took two sets of novels from the bookshelf, which were "Laughing Off the Big Buds" and "Warm Dreams", and when she got the novels, Wang Lanlan cast her eyes on Liu Xing.
Liu Xingxin understood, picked up the novel, unpacked it, and identified both novels.
""Laughing Down the Big Bud", a funny novel, one star, with a match of 19%. ”
""Warm Dream", a casual novel, one star, 18% match. ”
After the appraisal, Liu Xing nodded at Wang Lanlan, Wang Lanlan turned her head and asked Huang Caiyun, "Auntie, how much?"
Huang Caiyun said: "Both are one-star novels, a total of 1,000 yuan, and you will be given a 6% discount, that is, 600 yuan." ”
Wang Lanlan took out her wallet and was about to pay cash, when she suddenly remembered something: "Can I swipe my medical insurance card?"
"Absolutely. Huang Caiyun said, "The two novels you bought are psychotropic drugs and are within the scope of medical insurance." ”
Tick, a crisp electronic sound, the medical insurance card clicked, and the payment was successful.
Wang Lanlan packed up two novels and was about to leave, when Liu Xing unexpectedly found a notice hanging at the door of Caiyun Bookstore, with four words written on it - bookstore transfer.
――――
PS: Reading therapy also exists in our real world, and reading books can indeed treat specific diseases. Basic research on reading therapy is currently weak and far from the level of the book eye world. However, when psychology and other related disciplines develop to a certain height, it may not be impossible to achieve. Maybe it's not necessarily a novel, but a more experiential form like TV, movies, games, or dreams. Whatever the form, they all have the same core, and that is the story.
For those who are new to the concept of reading therapy, don't think it's too. →_→
