Chapter 280 Vitality Pill

Liu Gaiwa blushed slightly and said embarrassedly, "I was too excited and didn't pay attention to it for a while."

Unexpectedly, Ermao was not shy this time, but instead behaved quite intimately.

Gu Mingyue was also a little surprised, and gestured, "Raise your hand gently. If it doesn't retreat, it means it allows you to get closer. You can try to touch it."

Liu Gaiwa took a deep breath, mustered up the courage to stretch out his hand. Ermao really didn't reject it and even rubbed his head against his palm.

"this......."

Seeing that the person who used to treat her was treated differently, jealousy made her completely unrecognizable. Gu Mingyue pouted and complained to Ermao, "You are a mountain cat, why do you care about appearance? Humph, you really forget your loyalty for the sake of beauty."

Seeing that Liu Gaiwa still looked incredulous, she continued unhappily, "You didn't seize the opportunity to pet a cat that was delivered to your doorstep. Alas, I really shot myself in the foot by inviting a wolf into the house..."

"Secretary Gu, could you please take me to see Doctor Mei when we get back? I feel so good to be alive now!"

Hearing Liu Gaiwa's words, Gu Mingyue felt a pang in her heart, and replied, "Okay, let's go down the mountain!"

Liu Gaiwa was reluctant to say goodbye to Ermao and looked depressed all the way.

Gu Mingyue could only comfort him, "I'll bring you here next time, or you can go to the foot of the mountain and call it. If it wants to see you, it should show up."

Liu Gaiwa was surprised and said, "Didn't you say that you don't like mountain cats to get too close to humans?"

Gu Mingyue explained, "That's true. But if Ermao wants to, I have no right to interfere. I think animals are more sensitive to danger than humans. Since it doesn't resist you and accepts your closeness, it must have sensed your kindness. However, I still want to remind you to pay attention to safety and never go deep into the mountains and forests. Ermao can save you, but he is not invincible in this forest. For your safety and his, be careful."

Liu Gaiwa finally smiled and said, "Thank you, Secretary."

Turn to the foot of the mountain.

Mei Xiuhai had heard Shi Changpu talk about a young intellectual who had problems with his pulse. For a doctor, perhaps there is no end to learning throughout one's life.

The world is full of wonders, and human pulses are even more varied. Therefore, when he heard about strange diseases, he couldn't help but be curious.

Later, Mei Xiuhai learned that the other party was unwilling to see a doctor. Although he felt sorry, he also understood. Everyone has their own secrets. Moreover, "a doctor does not knock on the door, and the truth is not easily passed on." To cure a disease and save lives, both parties must be willing.

I never thought that the other party would agree. I glanced at Gu Mingyue who was following behind me, and secretly guessed that it had something to do with this girl.

He invited everyone into the room and sent He Shiwu and Shi Daoyi to the outer room to boil water.

Gu Mingyue was originally planning to wait outside, but Liu Gaiwa grabbed her clothes and looked at her pitifully, as if he was afraid that she would abandon him.

Forget it, I'll just send him off to the west. Anyway, I know everything I need to know, and I can just sit by his side and accompany him in the end.

Mei Xiuhai began to take Liu Gaiwa's pulse and asked him to switch hands. The longer the time went on, the more solemn his expression became.

Even though she was not the one seeing the doctor, Gu Mingyue could still feel the tension. She was afraid that the doctor would suddenly become serious and silent when seeing the doctor. It was too scary.

After a while, Mei Xiuhai finally said, "Secretary Gu, I have something to ask this young friend. I wonder if you could step aside for a moment."

"Oh, sure." Gu Mingyue was about to get up when Liu Gaiwa stopped her and said, "Doctor, it's okay. I don't have many family members. When I came to Gujia Village, Secretary Gu took good care of me. She treats me better than my real relatives. Moreover, she knows everything about me. You can tell her directly if you have anything to say. Don't worry, I can accept any result."

Mei Xiuhai understood what was going on and stopped asking questions. He turned to talk about his condition. "This is the first time I've encountered a pulse like yours. If it weren't for similar cases recorded in the family books, I wouldn't have been able to tell. Mei's ancestor was an academician of the Imperial Hospital. At that time, the concubines in the palace tried every means to stay in favor. Among them was a banned drug called Shengji Pills, which is very similar to your symptoms. After taking it, you will stay young forever..."

Gu Mingyue was afraid that the other party would misunderstand, so she quickly said, "Someone forced the baby to take it. Doctor Mei, judging from your expression, does this medicine have serious side effects?"

Mei Xiuhai had lived for most of his life and had seen all kinds of dirty things. He could guess everything. In addition, the room was not soundproofed, so he did not want to cause any trouble. He stopped talking and did not ask any more questions. He replied, "Indeed. There is gain and loss. The so-called vitality is to mobilize all the functions in the body. The five internal organs of a person have their own functions, but they are also integrated into one. If a person has a problem with his body, it will be reflected on his face at the first time. The principle of the vitality pill is to break this rule..."

At this point, seeing that the two people in front of him were confused, he simply summarized, "Let me put it this way, Shengji Pills rely on burning vitality to delay aging. You may think that your face is rosy, but in fact, your insides are already decaying. And the overbearing thing about this medicine is that once you take it, even if you stop taking it, it will be useless, and your internal organs will still be under a high load all the time. And..."

Mei Xiuhai sighed when he said this, "The earlier you take it, the more beautiful your appearance will be, but it also means a shorter life span."

Liu Gaiwa had roughly known the consequences of this medicine and was not surprised.

Gu Mingyue was confused at first, but later she understood that it was equivalent to injecting various injections into the face to maintain youth in later generations. In ancient times, there were no such external medicines, and people could only rely on burning their vitality to maintain their youthful appearance.

She said vaguely, "Doctor Mei, Gaiwa was kidnapped by bad people when he was a child, which is why he was persecuted. I would like to trouble you to think of a way to see if he can be cured."

Mei Xiuhai shook his head and said, "I'm sorry, at least my medical skills can't cure it right now." When Gu Mingyue was dejected, he added, "But it's not completely incurable. Even if it can't be cured, taking medicine and acupuncture can expel some toxins. If you take good care of yourself, you won't die young."

"Could you please not breathe so hard when you speak next time? I'm afraid someone with a weak heart will faint."

Mei Xiuhai smiled like an old mischievous boy and said, "It's okay. You forgot that I would check your pulse beforehand."

Gu Mingyue couldn't help but ask, "Did you ever get beaten when you were practicing medicine in your early years?"

Mei Xiuhai was stunned for a moment, then said, "That's true. But I'm curious, with your fierce personality, do you often fight with others outside?"

Gu Mingyue said proudly, "Of course there are, quite a few, but it's a pity that I have not been defeated so far. Alas, you don't understand the loneliness of being alone and seeking defeat."

Mei Xiuhai couldn't help but laugh out loud. "I've heard from Village Chief Gu that you're a clever girl. Now I've seen that you're not only imaginative, but also sharp-tongued."

Gu Mingyue said proudly, "Thank you for your compliment, I think so too!"
