Chapter 123: Unmasked
"Because the skeletal development of these two patients is completely normal and they have not been traumatized, since they can cause the limbs to lose their intuition in two days, it must be the result of poisoning, and this poison mainly acts on the nerves of the peripheral tissues." After Xu actually finished speaking, he asked Ren Mo and Gou Yang, "When the two of you started, did you first feel soreness in your toes and fingers, and then slowly lost your sense, and then, over time, this spread to your entire leg and entire arm?" ”
Ren Mo and Gou Yang thought carefully for a while, their faces immediately changed, and they nodded hurriedly.
"This is the result of the spread of toxins!" Xu went on to say, "However, according to the situation of the two patients, the amount of toxin injected should be very small, otherwise the consequences may be more serious!" ”
"And what do you think is poison?" Xu Lao nodded, Xu actually said something that made him quite happy, but he didn't expect that this unprofessional grandson finally did not disappoint him completely.
Xu actually rummaged through the pocket on his body and found a very small magnifying glass, he walked straight to Gou Yang's side, took Gou Yang's hand and looked for it carefully. This move made everyone surround them, except for Mu Yuan and Long Ling'er, of course.
"It should have been caused by a scorpion sting!" Xu actually said.
With the help of a magnifying glass, everyone saw that there was a very tiny blood spot on Gou Yang's wrist, and there was a blister around the blood spot.
"Scorpion venom is a protein nerve poison that is strongly acidic and can act on the nervous system after being absorbed by the body!" Xu hesitated again after speaking, "But this wound is very small, so the amount of toxin injected is also very small, but it can cause such a big consequence, I guess it is very likely to be an Israeli killer scorpion." The venom of this scorpion is a mixture of several divine toxins, and it may also be a mutant species whose venom is different from the common Israeli killer scorpions! ”
Hearing Xu Ling'er's words, everyone was frightened, especially the crayfish, she glanced at Long Ling'er, and couldn't help but take a step back to the side, she clearly knew that Long Ling'er had this kind of scorpion hidden in her body, who knew if her would be a mutated variety.
"Elder Xu, how to cure it, please think of a way for us!" Ren Mo was anxious and pleaded loudly.
Xu Lao didn't speak, but looked at Xu Jing.
This time he was so panicked, this old man wouldn't think he could cure it.
"Grandpa, I just know a little bit about the habits of these animals!" Xu actually said with a sad face, "But I don't know anything about detoxification, and ...... Moreover, our family opened an orthopedic hospital, this detoxification has to find a professional institution to do laboratory analysis, and only by mastering the toxicology can the antidote be configured! ”
Of course, Xu Lao would not think that Xu would be able to solve this kind of thing, he looked at Xu Actually and just wanted to hear his opinion and see if he had any good suggestions. Moreover, Xu unexpectedly reacted to make him very satisfied, being able to recognize his own ability and give advice is the duty and conscience that a doctor should have, otherwise he will be a complete murderous quack doctor if he forces himself to come out regardless of the patient's pain.
"My grandson is right, old man, I run an orthopedic clinic, if it's a bone graft, I can still help a little, but I don't know anything about this poison!" Xu Lao said, "I just checked the pulse of the two of you, and the pulse was tight, and there was a slight delay, which is completely in line with the statement." I suggest that you two find a more professional organization to try, don't waste time here with the old man! ”
"Thanks!" Seeing Lao Xu say this, Ren Mo's family thanked him and took out the consultation fee.
"You don't have to pay for a consultation!" Xu Lao waved his hand, "I didn't help much, I deserve it!" ”
After some greetings, Ren Mo and Gou Yang left the courtyard with the support of family and friends.
"Sure enough!" Xu Lao called, and there was a bit of sternness in his voice, "You are already a little small in touching bones and breaking bones, but you are very far from diagnosing the pulse, and you will have to get more hands on it in the future!" ”
"Got it, Grandpa!" Xu Sure nodded, a little cringe between his words.
Seeing that his granddaughter was a little nervous, Xu Lao showed a hint of a smile, and told Xu Guoran about the pulse just now, pointing out his granddaughter's mistakes and negligence. After saying all this, Xu Lao shifted his gaze to Xu Jing's body, and the latter couldn't help but take two steps back.
"Don't patronize and play in the future, learn more with your sister and use more snacks!" Xu Lao said softly.
Hearing his grandfather's understatement, Xu was a little incredulous, thinking that his grandfather had something to say, but after waiting for a long time, he found that Xu Lao had shifted his attention to Mu Yuan.
"Makihara, do you know the two patients just now?" Xu Lao asked.
Mu Yuan nodded and said, "I know, I just met two days ago!" ”
Hearing Mu Yuan's answer, Xu Lao couldn't help but think, didn't this time coincide with the time of Ren Mo Gouyang's poisoning?
"Sister, you were scared of the poison, right?" Xu suddenly opened his mouth, pointing the finger at Long Ling'er.
Xu Lao was a little annoyed, and felt that his grandson's question was really a bit reckless, but who knew that Long Ling'er was neither angry nor refuted, but shrugged his shoulders indifferently.
Is this an acknowledgement? Old Man Xu was a little puzzled.
"Grandpa, the poison was indeed given by us, but we poisoned it for a reason!" When Makihara saw it, he hurriedly explained what happened.
"The reputation of that hospital spread in the industry two or three years ago, but I didn't expect them to go so far!" Xu Lao sighed, "Alas, the current doctor-patient relationship is so tense, it is the sin created by these scum!" Times have changed, and it is no longer simple to simply see a doctor and treat a disease! ”
Referring to this, Xu Lao has a feeling that he is quite old, the Xu family has been practicing medicine for generations, looking back on the history of its orthopaedic Chinese medicine clinic, not to mention hundreds of years, during which there were several national masters. However, in recent years, the emergence of commercial transformation has given Xu Lao a headache, the Xu family has studied medicine for generations, but he has an inadvertent understanding of business operations, although he has also invited a professional professional manager to take care of the hospital, but the decline has suddenly emerged, Xu Lao does not know how long this hospital can last, he is really afraid that the ancestral clinic will be destroyed in his hands one day, and this is why he is so demanding on this pair of grandsons and granddaughters.
Although Xu Sure is very accomplished in touching bones and breaking bones, and even has an unpredictable ability, she is just a girl, the strength in her hands is too small, and she has a congenital disadvantage in bones. And Xu is even worse, since he was a child, he has not been interested in orthopaedic Chinese medicine, but he likes to fiddle with the bones of those animals very much, which is quite a bit of a desire to turn to Chinese medicine to become a veterinarian.
However, after today's case, Xu Lao seems to have found a way, and has begun to think about how to cultivate the successor of the Xu family in the future.
"Old man, you don't have to worry too much, the so-called evil does not prevail over the good, as long as the Xu family's medical skills can be passed on, I believe there will be a turnaround!" Mu Yuan saw Xu Lao's worries and was relieved.
"Sister, let me see!" Xu didn't have the heart to speculate on the old man's thoughts, he was only interested in what Long Ling'er was doing.
"What are you looking at?" The crayfish said angrily, it's too late to hide this kind of thing, and there are still people rushing forward, "Be careful and bite you for a while!" ”
"What?" When Xu Lao heard this, his mouth opened wide in surprise, "Take a bite?" Are you saying it was a live scorpion that was poisoned? ”
"Alright, take it out!" Makihara said.
Long Ling'er pursed her lips dissatisfied, glared at Mu Yuan before stretching out her palm, her wrist shook slightly, and Xu Lao was surprised to see a dark golden scorpion crawl out of Long Ling'er's cuffs, and only stopped when it crawled into Long Ling'er's palm.
