Chapter 186: Choice
Seeing the old man's solemn expression, I didn't ask more, but silently followed the old man to a slightly more remote place. I don't know what it is, but I always have a vague feeling of unease. But I don't know, why does the old man have to be so mysterious, what can't he say in front of the old ghost?
After walking for about a few minutes, we came to another corner of the cave, and the old man stopped. But he didn't speak immediately, as if he were organizing his own language.
Where did I have the patience, so I hurriedly asked the old man: "Senior, I see you have something to say to me, what is the matter?" β
When the old man saw me ask him, he looked straight to the door and said, "That's right, this matter is about Qian Duoduo's life." I don't want so many people to know so as not to cause unnecessary panic. Especially the little girl named Lisa, if she knew, she would definitely not be able to hide it for a long time and let Qian Duoduo know. In this case, there is no benefit to her treatment. β
The old man has a great deal of sense, and I agree with him very much. It's not that she is guarding against Lisa, it's just that the girl can't afford to do anything. If she knows, it will be the same as letting Duoduo know. And in this case, it will only have a negative effect, and there will be no positive effect.
The old man saw that I agreed, and said, "Have you noticed that Qian Duoduo sleeps more and more often?" This is a very bad symptom. β
Listening to the old man's reminder, it's true! I became nervous at once, but I didn't know what I meant, so I immediately asked the old man, "What do you mean?" β
"It's the result of a worsening condition!" The old man said, "This is because the corpse poison in her body is getting more and more powerful, and the immune system in her body can no longer compete with the thousand-year-old corpse poison." Moreover, the effect of acupuncture control on her is gradually disappearing, and I am afraid it won't last long! β
"Huh?!" When I heard this, my heart was cold. But calm down and think about it. Since the old man has spoken out, there must be his way. So I immediately begged the old man: "Senior, what should we do?" You must have a way, please help me figure it out! β
The old man said calmly: "There is a way, but it is still the old way: it is to find the thousand-year-old snow lotus and assist the cold ice bed for treatment." In order to completely eliminate the thousand-year-old corpse poison in Qian Duoduo's body. However, the road is difficult and the location is uncertain, and I am afraid that it will not be so easy to execute. β
"It's okay, you just have to tell us what to do." I said immediately.
"However, such an approach has very big side effects!" The old man said.
"What side effects?" I asked.
The old man said: "If this method is implemented at that time, it will be like walking through the life and death barrier." Its pain is like purgatory, and it is not at all something that ordinary people can endure! Moreover, after being cured, his temperament will change drastically. The most common symptom is amnesia. β
"Amnesia?" I was very surprised when the old man said that. Then he asked the old man: "So strict?" β
I know about amnesia, because my cousin in my family has suffered from this disease.
Amnesia is a condition that arises due to trauma to the brain, and is mainly divided into psychogenic amnesia and dissociative amnesia. It is characterized by the disruption of consciousness, memory, identity, or the normal integration of the environment, thus causing distress to life. These symptoms cannot be explained by physiological factors. Patients often don't know who they are, or feel a lot of 'me'.
Common symptoms include: loss of memory of past experiences, amnesia is caused by psychological causes; Sometimes it's just a matter of not being able to remember a certain period of time. It is to remember only the old things and forget the present; Others are limited to having no memory of important things, which is called "episodic amnesia"; And one more is. After suffering a painful blow, it happens suddenly, and after a period of time, it may also regain its memory.
Obvious symptoms of amnesia include memory loss of short-term objects, difficulty in verbal expression, and impaired comprehension of abstract things. I can only think about it, but I can't do it.
It is obvious that it is easy to forget things, repeat problems, or repeatedly ask for things, and it is easy to get excited or become sluggish and uncooperative.
Therefore, taking care of a patient with amnesia is not only costly, but also a long-term drain on the caregiver's body and mental energy. It can even cause depression, which is a great impact and burden on the family, and it is also a heavy pressure on society.
At that time, many relatives in our family were deeply affected by it. A few are everyone, as long as they talk about "amnesia", they will have palpitations.
People with mild disease tend to forget what just happened, so it is difficult for them to learn new things. Sometimes you get lost in the familiar path, and then you will have melancholy. I don't dare to go out, and I can't properly respond to or deal with a lot of letters or bills.
In moderate patients, forgetfulness worsens, and gradually even the names of old friends and what they have done in the past are forgotten.
Repeating something all the time, or asking the same question over and over again, or asking family members to give it again because they thought they hadn't eaten. I will put on a crown and wear it when I say it to myself, or make up stories to stop it. I can't do what I have written down and agreed to do. Behavior gradually gets out of control, becomes agitated, weird and wanders around. Confusion, delusions, fantasies, hallucinations, etc.
Severe patients are the most frightening and worrying patients, who don't even recognize their family and friends. They also gradually lose the way to communicate with others, and will scream and hit people aimlessly, completely unable to take care of themselves.
There is also a temporary amnesia. Temporary amnesia is caused by the violent collision of the brain by the outside world, resulting in hemocephalus, and the blood clot compresses part of the memory nerve conduction and amnesia. Generally, after the surgery is bled out, the memory will be restored.
Thinking of this, I couldn't help but be very worried, so I asked the old man: "What kind of Cheng dΓΉ will Duoduo's amnesia be?" β
The old man said, "If you decide to be treated, you have to prepare for the worst!" When the time comes, it is certain that you don't know us. I don't think even you will know you. Because, this method is almost all the human bone marrow, nerves and other systems!
To put it bluntly, it's like hollowing out all people's memories. When the time comes, you will find that she is like a different person! β
As soon as I heard that the negative effect was so great, I hurriedly asked the old man: "Senior, is there any other way?" β
"There is only one way, and there is no other way!" The old man said categorically.
I thought about it again and again, and finally made a decision: compared to Duoduo's life, amnesia seemed irrelevant. So I said to the old man, "Then follow this method!" (To be continued......)
