Chapter 11: Ghost Picking
Chapter 11: Ghost Peeling
The operation of the oncology department, a considerable part of the movement is to overtime, Chen Zheng's surgery is no exception, the original plan was to finish at eleven o'clock in the morning, but it has been delayed until half past three in the afternoon, and when the three of them set off by car, it was almost four o'clock, Chen Zheng was also real, before the departure had already prepared 35,000 yuan in cash, it seems that this person is not good in other aspects except for "below", but also a barbarian, for a child who has died, can also do such a word and believe in real money, let alone the living?
Sharing the car with someone you don't know is theoretically a very embarrassing thing, but Zhang Guoyi doesn't see it that way, to be honest, Zhang Guoyi has two hobbies in his life, one is bragging, the other is pulling relationships, although Chen Zheng is a doctor and an oncology doctor, theoretically speaking, it is best not to deal with each other for a lifetime, but since they have already met, it should not hurt to talk about gossip and lala relationship, just listen to this way, Zhang Guoyi's mouth is not idle, and Chen Zheng has been talking from the family planning policy to Israel's invasion of Palestinian territory, Chen Zheng is not a talkative person, what he said is chatting, in fact, he is listening to Zhang Guoyi's unilateral nonsense, perhaps because the hospital environment is relatively dull, listening to Zhang Guoyi's chat, Chen Zheng seems to be quite interested, and he also talked a lot about his views and dissatisfaction with the current medical system, and Zhang Guoyi's chat content is different from Chen Zheng's topic, which is basically related to his own work - medical care, and Zhang Guoyi, as an educator, basically did not talk about education along the way......
Chatting and chatting, the topic gradually shifted to marriage, Chen Zheng did not shy away from talking about his ex-wife Zhu Yufen, which even Zhang Guoyi was a little surprised, according to normal people's thinking, since he talked about Zhu Yufen, he was bound to talk about infertility, I thought that Chen Zheng would avoid this kind of topic, but I didn't expect this guy to be more active than anyone else.
"Yufen's matter, in fact, I regret it very much......" At the mention of Zhu Yufen, Chen Zheng looked a little lost, "At that time, I was too young, I didn't see some things very thoroughly, and I cared too much about fame and face, so I had today's result......"
"You and Sister Zhu, there may be some inside information you don't know......" Zhang Guoyi thought that Chen Zheng was still suspecting Zhu Yufen of cheating, "In order to surprise you, people deliberately went to Hong Kong to do artificial insemination, Lao Chen, I tell you, I have organized martial arts since the 70s, I can't say that I have read countless people, but the characters of the three religions and nine streams have also seen a lot, I can see at a glance what kind of person and temperament, although Sister Zhu has a burst of temper, but it is not like the kind of person you think!" Inexplicably, Zhang Guoyi became a lobbyist for Zhu Yufen.
"Brother Zhang, it's not what you think......" Chen Zheng shook his head, his eyes were confused and thoughtful, "Actually, I also believe that she hasn't done anything to be sorry for me, and I know her ...... very well."
"That'...... Then you ......" Zhang Guoyi was stunned, "What is this plan to break up his wife......"
According to Chen Zheng, he is a more traditional man, and like most people, he thought that it was a very unsightly thing for men to suffer from fertility diseases, so he would hide his illness from Zhu Yufen, and the reason why he left Zhu Yufen was not entirely due to a misunderstanding, in addition to the misunderstanding, a considerable part of the reason was that he felt that Zhu Yufen's actions damaged his dignity as a man.
"At that time, I was just a hairy boy, and I felt that this kind of thing was like a fall of the ......sky for a man," Chen Zheng looked directly at him, like a poet, "but over the years, when a person has witnessed countless life and death, when a person has witnessed countless eyes that yearn for life or desire for liberation, look back and think about what are those points?" Maybe you don't understand, but if you come to my seat for a few days, you will understand a truth, the meaning of life, in fact, is life itself, everything else is false, understand this, only then will you know how to cherish, cherish yourself, cherish others, cherish everything that belongs to you......"
"Lao Chen, you look like a poet, ......", Zhang Guoyi smiled, and after chatting for almost two hours, he realized that he was not a person on the same level as others, and it was hard to imagine how this kind of person got along with a savage girlfriend like Zhu Yufen in the first place.
"Sometimes I really want to be a poet...... Chen Zheng laughs, "I have this kind of thought whenever I am helpless in the face of a life that is about to die......
"Lao Chen, don't look at me as from the Education Bureau, in fact, you Brother Zhang and I are just a rough ......" Talking about this, Zhang Guoyi simply changed his title, "To be honest, how is your current daughter-in-law?" Is consciousness as high as you? β
"Actually...... I have never remarried......" Chen Zheng smiled, "Maybe Yufen is the only one in the world who doesn't know ......"
"Why?" Hearing Chen Zheng say this, even Zhang Yicheng couldn't help but be stunned.
"I don't know, maybe it's because I don't have the courage to face her again......" Chen Zheng was helpless, "Actually, it's good to live alone, and I'm used to it......"
"Lao Chen, didn't you know everything about life just now? How can I say that it is still a matter of face...... "Zhang Guoyi is a smart person, but his words are rough, and what noble philosophy is in the vernacular in his mouth, "I think Yufen is a good person, straightforward, and living a good life with you is a tight fit, these two people live a life, you have to pay attention to complementing each other's advantages, you see your brother and I are very arrogant, but I am looking for a daughter-in-law, so I will pick the kind that is similar to you, Wen Zou Zou's, you look at the big sister Zhu, now the family conditions are also good, and the length is okay, What can I do at home and outside the home to help you cope, what else do you want? If you're really embarrassed, your brother and I will come forward to help you match......"
To tell the truth, Zhang Yicheng was dying when he sat in the back row, secretly stretched out his hand to the front row, and poked Zhang Guoyi's arm with his fingers, saying that his old man was too bullshit, Dr. Chen was a person with depth, and he began to think about the meaning of life......
While talking, the car entered the urban area of Cangzhou, and according to the address provided by the medical representative "Xiao Su", several people quickly found Guo Mingzhong's house in the urban area, but as expected, there was no movement in the house after knocking on the door for a long time, according to the neighbors, this person seemed to have not returned home for more than a month. After finding a small restaurant for dinner, Zhang Guoyi kicked the accelerator and drove straight to the address of Guo Mingzhong's father's house.
Although it is rural, because the address information is more detailed, it is relatively smooth to find. The person who opened the door claimed to be Guo Mingzhong's second brother, and after listening to Zhang Guoyi's explanation that the purpose of looking for Guo Mingzhong was to ask for information about "Yin relatives", he closed the door tightly without saying a word, saying that Guo Mingzhong had been sick recently, and he would talk about it later, and then no one answered no matter how he asked.
Zhang Guoyi reacted quite quickly, and seeing that asking "conventional" questions had no effect, he simply shouted at the top of his voice, "The surname is Guo, I know you are inside!" Kill to pay for your life, pay off your debts! I took the money and didn't see anyone! Cheating money to give birth to a son has no asshole! If you don't come out again, I'll call the police immediately! "Don't say it, as it is, although it didn't call out the Guo family, but shouted out a group of neighbors, and saw that the pressure of public opinion was formed, Zhang Guoyi's voice was even louder, and it didn't take five minutes to work, there were more than 20 fellow villagers gathered at the door of this Guo family, and the three layers inside and the outside surrounded the door of Guo's house tightly.
"Second Brother Guo, we're not rushing at you! Your brother took 20,000 yuan from us, and we can't find anyone before we do anything! After that, Zhang Guoyi really took out his mobile phone, and he had to press 110 for the fake model, "You go and tell your brother, I will be here today, if he doesn't come out again......"
Before Zhang Guoyi finished speaking, he saw that the second child of the Guo family simply squeaked and pushed the door open halfway, "Come in, come in!" Isn't it just a few sassy money! Shout a ball, shout ......! It's all right! It's all right! Misunderstanding, misunderstanding! While squinting his eyes and scolding Zhang Guoyi, the second child of the Guo family sent away the onlookers outside......
"Yay?" The scene in front of him also confused Zhang Guoyi, "Do you really admit that you owe me money?" I knew it was 100,000 ......."
"I tell you! It's his business that he owes you money! After entering the hospital, the second child of the Guo family closed the door with a backhand, "He is sick now, when he is sick, you can find him to pinch him!" Don't mess around here! β
"What disease?" Chen Zheng couldn't help but ask, if you want to say what disease is important and what disease doesn't matter, there must be no one who understands better than Chen Zheng.
"Strange disease!" This second child of the Guo family is quite reasonable, "The others are here!" Believe it or not, see for yourselves! β
"I'll see!" Chen Zheng really doesn't believe in this evil, looking at the furnishings in the yard, your Guo family should not be poor, my single business, I will ask for 35,000 when I open my mouth, and after so many years, I have 800,000 if not one million, right? If you are sick, you don't go to the hospital at home?
"Good!" The second million elders of the Guo family were not angry, pulled the door and dragged Chen Zheng into the house, followed by Zhang Guoyi and Zhang Yicheng. "Dad, there's another one to ask for an account!" Entering the house, the old couple was sitting in the living room watching TV, and when they saw a few people coming in outside, they didn't even lift their eyelids, and they seemed to be used to it.
The second child of the Guo family lifted the curtain and directly led Chen Zheng to a hospital bed in the inner room, only to see the infusion shelf at the head of the bed, but there was no hanging bottle on the shelf, and there was indeed a person lying on the hospital bed, but his back was facing outward, and he couldn't see his face.
"This ......" Chen Zheng walked to the hospital bed, and couldn't help but be surprised, only to see that the whole face on the hospital bed seemed to have a layer of leprosy, and the skin on the cheeks seemed to have been separated from the deep muscles, wrinkled like a Shar Pei dog, and there was a faint layer of green sores on the surface of the folded flesh, reflecting the light, I don't know if it was thick or some other secretion.
He ...... Is he Guo Mingzhong? Zhang Guoyi put his mouth to Chen Zheng's ear and whispered.
"......I don't know," Chen Zheng whispered, "I haven't seen him in person, I've just made a few phone calls, and ...... And even if you have seen Guo Mingzhong, I'm afraid you won't be able to recognize him now! β
He ...... What kind of illness is he......? To be honest, Zhang Guoyi was also nauseous at this time.
"I'm not sure......" Chen Zheng shook his head, to say that a disease that even Chen Zheng didn't know should indeed be regarded as a "strange disease......
"That's 'ghost picking'!" The second child of the Guo family said indignantly, "Tell him not to do those immoral livelihoods, he won't listen!" It turned out to be such a problem! Wait for death! β
"Have you been to the hospital?" Chen Zheng was stunned.
"Have you seen itβ?" The second child of the Guo family deliberately stretched out the word "?", "In order to cure him for this lack of morality, my father folded the coffin book into it!" This bastard, I've been earning money for a long time, and I don't know where the fuck is hiding, and now I'm like a fool! Wait for death! β
"This ...... "......At the same time, Zhang Yicheng was also looking at the illness on this bed vigorously, and said in his heart that it wouldn't be so coincidental, right? The sick number on the bed in front of him reminded Zhang Yicheng of the record of "Ten Thousand Tribulations" in the book "Miscellaneous Notes of Taoist Doctors" in Lao Liu Tou's mouth - "The muscles are like the same, they collapse without touching, they are stunned, and they don't answer......
"That...... Uncle Guo ...... "Don't look at Zhang Guoyi's mouth full of scolding, but Zhang Yicheng is still very polite," he ...... Have you spoken? β
"the!" The second child of the Guo family deliberately made a spitting posture, "If he can speak, let him take out the money first!" it...... Trouble all day long, in the past two months, there have been seven or eight calls just to ask for accounts! β
According to the memories of the second child of the Guo family, this Guo Mingzhong suddenly fell unconscious during a meal with friends, and began to think it was food poisoning, and carried it to the hospital to wash his stomach, but then he woke up again and was this virtue, the whole person seems to be conscious, but he can't speak, he can't move, he has to be fed and can only eat liquid food, and he can swallow it with a spoon in his mouth, but he can't seem to chew it, and he has to be served by others. Then he carried people back, there are old people in the village who seem to understand this, saying that this disease is called "ghost peeling", there is no cure, you can only wait for death, get this disease, it must be the retribution of the dead people's wealth, the old society is easy to get this disease.
"Nonsense......" Chen Zheng doesn't seem to agree with the statement of "ghost skinning", "Comrade Xiao Guo, to tell you the truth, your brother did promise us some things, but he didn't owe us money......
"Huh!?" As soon as he heard that he didn't owe money, the eyes of the second child of the Guo family immediately stood up, and he didn't wait for Chen Zheng to say, "You don't owe any money, what the hell are you going to make trouble!" β
"Listen to me!" Chen Zheng's temper was quite good, "I'm a doctor, can you let me take some living samples from the patient and bring them back for testing?" Maybe...... Maybe I can help you get a specialist consultation ......"
"Consultation has a fart!" The second child of the Guo family looked disdainful, "If you don't get treated, you will wait for ...... to die"
"Wait for your mother to die, B!" The second child of the Guo family was scolding halfway, and a more ruthless old man suddenly came in outside the door, and as soon as he entered the house, he scolded the second child of the Guo family without saying a word, "Now you say let him wait for death, you play money and owe debts, let Lu Lao Liu run all over the street with a knife, and when Mingzhong followed behind his ass to pay off the debt for you, why didn't you let him wait for death?" When your son was admitted to university, and Mingzhong paid your son's tuition, why didn't you let him wait for death? Now let him wait for death, you can't tell him! Bah! "If you want to say that this old man is really real, ordinary people say "phew", that is, there is such a spitting action, symbolically using the action to despise the other party, this old man's "bah" is a real "bah" out of a mouthful of sticky phlegm, impartially spit on the nose of the second child of the Guo family.
"Dad! I said, why are you so ......" The second child of the Guo family quibbled while looking for something to wipe his face, "Isn't this just to let them leave quickly!" β
"Fart!" The old man's eyes were red, "I'm listening outside!" People aren't here to ask for accounts at all! People want to see a doctor for Ming Zhong! What's wrong? Scared? You're afraid that if you cure Ming Zhong, the house in the city won't have your share, right!? I'm telling you! Mingzhong's house is written in my name! I found someone to tear it down, pull the bricks back and build a pigsty, and I won't keep it for you! β
"Dad!" The second child of the Guo family seems to be quite wronged, "They must be lying!" The last time I went to Tianjin, the doctors in the big hospitals all said that this disease is enough to choke! What are they? Do you think which of these three people looks like a doctor? It must be a money scam! Why are you so confused? β
"It's hard-mouthed!" didn't wait for the second child of the Guo family to finish speaking, but I saw that the old man actually raised the stick, "I'll kill you ...... with no conscience."
"Uncle, you dissipate your anger, ......" Seeing that the old man was going to move, Chen Zheng hurriedly grabbed the old man, and the second child of the Guo family took the opportunity to leave the house, and went outside to complain to the old aunt......
"You...... Are you really a doctor? Putting down the stick, the old man looked at Chen Zheng vigorously.
"You are Guo Mingzhong's father...... Chen Zheng took out a business card and handed it to the old man, "I am indeed a doctor...... I'm not here to ask for an account......"
"Oncology...... Chief physician...... Chen Zheng ......" The old man took out his reading glasses from his pocket and looked at them again and again, "Oh, Dr. Chen...... You have to help my family Mingzhong, without him, how would I be a big family!? β
After some conversation, I learned that this Guo Mingzhong seems to be the only pillar of the Guo family, the Guo family originally had three sons, the eldest was called Guo Yunquan, when he was twenty years old, he went to the lake to skate and drowned in the ice hole, the second is the one who was beaten away just now, called Guo Yuchun, he was persuaded to retire before graduating from primary school, and he made a living from gambling every day, because the gambling money was in arrears, and the daughter-in-law also ran away and sold the house, and the people in their forties were in their forties but relied on their parents' house to gnaw at the old, and even the younger brother Guo Mingzhong had to pay for his son's college tuition; In Guo Laohan's view, the most promising and filial son among the sons is the third Guo Mingzhong, who not only gives his parents pension money on a monthly basis, but also sticks money to his second brother who is not competitive for three days, and even buys a house in his father's name. In the past, the old man took Guo Mingzhong as the benchmark to scold the second Guo Yuchun for not being productive, although Guo Yuchun had to rely on his younger brother to support, but he always heard the old man praise his younger brother and scold himself, and he was also depressed, whenever the old man scolded himself by his younger brother's example, he wanted to say that his younger brother made a dead man's fortune, and sooner or later he would be retributed, but he didn't expect that something really happened this time.
"What kind of business does Ming Zhong do, I also know that the marriage is tied to the red line, this should be a matter of accumulating virtue, how can this be!" In Guo Laohan's view, the ghost media industry seems to be a very sunny profession.
"Uncle Guo, don't believe those messy ......," Chen Zheng comforted, "In my experience, rare symptoms like this should be jointly diagnosed by experts from multiple departments, and I will try my best to fight for him when I go back!" β
"This ...... It's not a ghost peel! Chen Zhengzheng said, Zhang Yicheng said a word, and everyone present was stunned, "Ghost peeling is ghost peeling, this is this, it's not the same thing at all!" I saw Zhang Yicheng looking down to observe Guo Mingzhong's symptoms on the bed, "This is a catastrophe!" β
"What?" Guo Laohan was stunned, as if he didn't hear clearly.
"Million-Evil-Tribulation!" Zhang Yicheng said word by word, "Ten thousand of ten thousand, the fierce gods and evil spirits, are in a catastrophe that cannot be escaped!" β
"What's that?" Chen Zheng was also stunned, he never expected Zhang Yicheng to express his opinion on "disease", "Is it the name of the disease?" β
"Not exactly!" Zhang Yicheng stood up straight and turned his head, "Traditional Chinese medicine believes that the cause of arthritis is caused by dampness, and this disease can be understood as caused by ghosts, not that the ghost subjectively wants to harm him, but that the ghost's breath invades his body......" Zhang Yicheng briefly repeated Lao Liu's description of the contents of these ancient books as popular as possible, "The 'ghost qi' I am talking about, the scientific name is 'resentment', just like the 'dampness' and 'turbidity' in traditional Chinese medicine, which cannot be seen or touched, But it will affect people's health! β
"Young man!" Without waiting for Zhang Yicheng to finish speaking, Chen Zheng pulled Zhang Yicheng aside, "How can you say such irresponsible words?" What do you think about the old man when you say that? And it's all superstition! How can you mislead the patient's family? β
"I ......" Zhang Yicheng also looked innocent, "Didn't you come to Cangzhou for Zhu Huanyu's sentence 'Why don't you come yet'?" Why do you still say that I am superstitious ......? β
"I came to Cangzhou to fulfill my promise to Huanyu!" Chen Zheng said righteously, "I'm not for those ghosts and weird things!" β
"Yes, Lao Chen, you are here to fulfill your promise......" Hearing Chen Zheng say this, Zhang Guoyi became energetic, "What are we fighting for here?" Hurry up and find clues, find the girl in the photo, and get down to business......"
"Doing business? What to do? Chen Zhengyi frowned and pointed to Guo Mingzhong on the hospital bed, "Look at his current state, what's the difference between this and we didn't find him?" β
"That's easy to do, bring his mobile phone, look at the phone number on it, call one number after another and ask if there must be a clue......" Zhang Guoyi is quite experienced, "Uncle Guo, your son, do you have a mobile phone?" β
"Yes! Yes! I saw Guo Laohan turn his head and go out of the house, and after a while, he brought in a mobile phone from outside, Zhang Guoyi almost burst into tears when he saw it, this is a "big brick" that he used five years ago, and there is no LCD screen, so it is impossible to have the function of storing numbers, "By the way, Uncle Guo, do you know where his phone number book is?" β
Guo Laohan shook his head.
"Grandpa Guo, can you take us to Uncle Guo's house to have a look?" Zhang Yicheng said, "We have a car, and we will send you back later!" β
"This ......" Guo Laohan seemed to hesitate a little, "Then can you help my son see a doctor?" "I saw that Guo Laohan seemed to have something unspeakable," to tell the truth...... A while ago, I spent a lot of money on his medical treatment, and my family really couldn't come up with any money...... Dr. Chen, can you just prescribe some medicine to him privately without going through the procedures of the hospital, and we will give him an infusion at home? β
"Uncle Guo......" Chen Zheng seemed to be a little embarrassed, "I will fight for ......" Chen Zheng actually wanted to say "Strive for the media to be reported and let the society donate", but before he finished the second half of the sentence, Zhang Yicheng took the stubble, "Okay!" Grandpa Guo, I promise you on behalf of Uncle Chen! We help, and it's free! Can you take us there? β
"Oops!" Hearing Zhang Yicheng say this, Old Man Guo immediately frowned, "Okay!" Yes! Thank you, little brother, thank you, Dr. Chen! You are the great benefactor of my Guo family, let me kowtow to you! After that, he was about to kneel, Chen Zheng's face turned white, and he didn't react when he saw the old man kneeling, and stepped forward to hold it, thanks to Zhang Yicheng's quick eyes, he hurriedly supported Guo Laohan, "Grandpa Guo, we can get a life discount from your gift, don't ...... like this"
"You...... You ......" Watching Old Man Guo excitedly lift the curtain and leave the house, Chen Zheng was about to die on the spot, pointing at Zhang Yicheng with his finger for a long time and you didn't speak, free treatment of this unseen unpopular disease, how is this possible, not to mention not going through the formal procedures of the hospital, even if you go through the procedures, it has to be a joint consultation by experts from various departments, using the most advanced diagnosis and treatment laboratory equipment, and there may not be results, how can you treat it for free by yourself? To be honest, what Chen Zheng regrets most at this moment is that he spent too much precious time studying academics back then, and he didn't have time to study hard and scold the streets......
"Dr. Chen! Don't worry, since my eldest nephew has agreed, he will definitely be able to do it! Zhang Guoyi saw that the stitches were blown again, "In terms of learning, people are key middle schools in the city, and they are among the top three in the grade!" On the five elements of yin and yang, people are heroes from ancient times, and the back waves of the Yangtze River push the front waves! Don't look at your young age, your ability is definitely not small...... "To be honest, Zhang Yicheng is also numb, he can't die if he brags anyway, let him go......
