Chapter Thirty-Eight: What the hell is "unearthing the truth"?

Wisps of white incense mist rose from the Boshan furnace. The delicate-faced maid sat on her knees with her head down, and used a copper clip to pluck the silver charcoal in the three-legged bronze stove with a finch pattern, so that the reddish glow covered the gray and white.

Wei Ying knelt on the brightly painted floor, but did not feel a trace of warmth.

The frustration and shame of the mission failure hit the brain wave after wave, and the large blood vessels on the side of the neck beat violently, as if the next moment, it was about to break through.

"Childe, my subordinates have insulted their mission, but they want to die."

"I don't blame you." Mo Gongzi said lightly: "Let's go down first, stay with me in the near future, and you don't have to return to the camp." ”

Wei Cang took Wei Ying out and led him to a guest house.

The table was full of steaming food, and Wei Cang couldn't help but swallow a mouthful of saliva: "Camp master, please use it slowly." ”

Wei Ying was a little puzzled: "...... is this?"

"The camp owner passed more than ten express reports in three days, and at the end of each one he had to drop a sentence, Mrs. Luo is good at cooking, and the taste is very fragrant."

"So Gongzi specially found Chef He Yu from Yiyaju to cook delicious food for you and satisfy your appetite, so that the owner knows that there is a world of difference in cooking skills between the two."

Wei Ying knelt down in front of the desk, and the maid introduced the dishes to him while distributing the dishes: "Zeng Hou Yi steamed bream, basil roasted beef liver, watercress pheasant soup, fried grass flower finch, roasted beef flower tendon, soaking green cockles......"

"It's all a delicacy that can only be seen at the prince's banquet." He tasted them all, then sighed softly:

"It's just that the lady of Naluo, with only one aroma, overshadows the sum of the three of He Xu's cooking, and the cooking skills of the two are indeed ...... It's like a cloud. ”

Mrs. Zhang led Luo Qianhuai through the huge front hall and came to a small courtyard at the side and back: "Mrs. Luo, Sheng'er is here, please bother more." ”

As a mother, she was both nervous and expectant, and even spoke carefully.

"I'll do my best." Luo Qianhuai said and pushed open the door of the small courtyard.

On the way, she had already learned a lot about Zhang Sheng's situation from Zhang Lichang and his wife, and she already had her own judgment on what his illness was.

If the disease of dementia comes from the mother's womb and belongs to congenital brain dysplasia, then it is incurable even if it goes back to the previous life.

However, Zhang Sheng had a sudden onset of illness since he was 13 years old, and he had not been injured by impact before, nor had he had fever, nausea and vomiting, which ruled out the possibility of head injury, meningitis and brain tumors.

Therefore, among the remaining causes, the most probable is poisoning.

Zhang Lichang's family is simple, he only married one wife, and he only had this only son, so the possibility of being deliberately poisoned is very small.

Zhang Sheng's face was gray, his body was swollen, he was lying on the bed in the house, drowsy, and the whole person looked aggrieved.

Luo Qianhuai said a few words to him, and found that his language organization skills were extremely poor, and he couldn't speak up to the words, but he didn't understand them completely.

If you can understand it, it will save a lot of trouble. She first took his pulse, then let him open his mouth and look at the tongue.

The tongue is dark, with petechiae, thin yellow moss, thin and astringent pulse, and the main kidney is blocked, which is very consistent with the symptoms she guessed.

Compared with the pulse, Zhang Sheng's teeth and nails are more intuitive. On the edge of the gums, there is a black lead line, and there is also a fingernail - this is a typical sign of lead poisoning.

Sure enough, it was as she expected. Luo Qianhuai let out a long breath.

The symptoms had basically been clarified, and she slowly helped Zhang Sheng up again and walked around the house a few times.

Stumbling in walking, ataxia in the limbs. After a few moments, he began to become extremely impatient, shouting and throwing a tantrum.

are common symptoms in people with lead poisoning.

"I see." Luo Qianhuai said to Zhang Lichang and his wife, who were standing aside: "Ling Lang's illness is lead poisoning. ”

"Lead poisoning?" The two looked at each other: "Can Mrs. Luo elaborate?" ”

It's really hard to say. Lead is still a rare thing in this Great Yu Dynasty, it is generally used by Fangshi alchemy, I heard that there are also rich people who take a fancy to its beauty, and spend a lot of money to build a roof, Luo Qianhuai has a sweat for them.

She tried her best to popularize science in plain language, and finally said: "The whole family lives in this house, but Ling Lang is the only one who has been poisoned, partly because of his young age, and partly because his room or place where he often moves, must have exposed a large amount of lead. ”

"But lead is expensive." Zhang Lichang was full of doubts: "I can guarantee that when the house was built, I did not buy lead, and as for Sheng'er's room, there were no lead tools." ”

This is actually what Luo Qianhuai feels strange. She had already looked around the room just now, and she really didn't see any lead utensils.

"It's better to be more cautious, first move Ling Lang to another room, and then check all the furnishings in the house, including under the floor."

The results of the examination were still nothing. Although the root cause of the poisoning was difficult to find, it did not prevent her from detoxifying.

Fortunately, Zhang Sheng was not poisoned in early childhood, and the time was still short, and it did not cause permanent brain damage, and the damage to the body's kidney organs was limited, so there was still some rescue.

Before she came, she had already brought a lot of medicinal materials stored at home in this direction, and she would use them directly at this time.

Traditional Chinese medicine to remove lead poison generally starts from three directions: dissolving stasis and detoxifying, nourishing yin and nourishing the kidneys, and soothing the liver and gallbladder relieving. In her previous life, she had memorized a lot of relevant prescriptions, and at this time, according to Zhang Sheng's pulse, she picked out the most suitable one:

30 grams of Poria cocos, 30 grams of parsnip, 10 grams of licorice, 30 grams of mung beans, decoction in water, and then supplemented with Xuefu Zhuyu soup and Sanmiao pills.

After changing his residence and taking decoction for a few days, Zhang Sheng's condition has visibly improved.

The swelling on his body has disappeared by half, his face is not as gray as before, his eyes are much smarter, and his speech has become more organized.

The prescription is effective, as long as you continue to take it, you will come over for a follow-up visit every other month and a half, Luo Qianhuai proposed her resignation.

Zhang Lichang and his wife saw hope, their hearts were overjoyed, and they thanked Luo Qianhuai without words, saying that they would let her stay for a few more days.

The two younger brothers are not around, Luo Qianhuai is not concerned, in fact, he does not have to go.

The reason why she insisted like this was because the compensation given by the system was about to expire.

The last time the system crashed halfway, after the restart, she offered to compensate her. If you don't want it, you can't do it.

"The system rebooted successfully. In view of the loss caused by the previous shutdown and restart to the host, we will compensate for the 'discovery of the truth' once, and the maximum storage period is 5 days, please withdraw it as soon as possible. ”

Luo Qianhuai repeatedly asked what this so-called "discovering the truth" meant, but the restarted system was even colder than before, and he didn't bother to explain it at all.

So now she's in a bit of a dilemma. Extract it at Zhang's house, I am afraid that the system will do something indescribable, which will cause indelible psychological trauma to Zhang Lichang's family; But if you don't leave, you won't be able to last long.

After pleading again to no avail, Luo Qianhuai had no choice but to turn his heart sideways, and before the time limit came, he took the initiative to choose a quiet time in the dead of night and began to withdraw compensation.

This time she was clever enough to sew a hood in advance. In the past few days, the Zhang family has almost offered her up, and there is no need to worry about such trivial things as providing some fabric, needlework, etc.
