Qin Han heard the words and lifted his head to look outside the door.
A middle-aged man rushed into the clinic, carrying another man of similar age on his back.
At that moment, the man on his back had a waxy yellow complexion and his eyes were tightly shut.
Seeing this, Qin Han quickly said, “Bring the patient into the inner room.”
After the middle-aged man laid the man on the bed, Qin Han asked, “Where did the patient fall ill?”
The middle-aged man, not bothering to wipe the sweat from his face, hurriedly said, “We are workers at a nearby construction site; this is my fellow worker.
He was fine just a moment ago, then suddenly fainted.
At first, we thought it was heatstroke, but no matter how we pinched his philtrum or tried to cool him down, he wouldn’t wake up.”
“Later, even his breathing became much weaker.”
“Some of our colleagues have been treated here before and said that Doctor Qin’s medical skills are very impressive, so I carried him over.”
After finishing, the man showed a very anxious expression and said, “Doctor Qin, you must save him.
He’s the only breadwinner in his family.
If he’s gone, his entire family will fall apart!”
Qin Han nodded and said, “I understand, don’t worry for now, let me check on him.”
Having said that, Qin Han placed his fingers on the man’s pulse.
A moment later, Qin Han called out, “Old Zhang, come in and help.”
Zhang Henian hurried into the inner room upon hearing this, and upon seeing Zhang Henian, Qin Han said, “Old Zhang, fetch the Golden Needle for me.”
When Zhang Henian brought Qin Han’s Golden Needle, Qin Han immediately took one-inch-long gold needle and inserted it into the man’s stomach area just in front of the chest.
When Qin Han had fully inserted the Golden Needle, leaving only one centimeter showing on the outside, the man on the bed suddenly convulsed all over, then coughed twice and opened his eyes.
“He’s awake!
He’s awake!” the middle-aged man shouted with joy.
But Qin Han waved his hands, signaling him to be quiet.
The next second, the man’s expression tightened, and he quickly turned his head to the side, where Qin Han had already picked up the wastebasket from the ground and placed it in front of the man’s head.
Although the onset was sudden, and the man was extremely careful while vomiting, some filth still splashed onto Qin Han’s clothes.
Seeing this, the man on the bed struggled to get up with his hands covered in cement plastering Qin Han’s clothes, only making them dirtier.
The man, noticing Qin Han’s clothes becoming dirtier, immediately panicked and hurriedly said, “Doctor Qin, I’m…
I’m sorry, I didn’t mean to.”
“It’s okay,” Qin Han said with a light smile, “you lie down first.”
“I…
I’ll wash it for you…” the man said somewhat frantically.
Qin Han waved his hand and said, “It’s really okay; you lie down first, your illness isn’t cured yet.”
Saying this, Qin Han helped the man back onto the bed, and the man lay there tentatively.
Qin Han, with a smile, said, “Don’t be nervous, let me ask you a few questions.”
“Ask away, Doctor Qin,” the man quickly said.
“Have you been to a hospital for a check-up before?” Qin Han asked.
The man shook his head and said, “No…”
“Why not?” Qin Han asked deeply.
The man looked embarrassed and said, “A single hospital check-up would cost me two months of living expenses…”
“Is your life not worth anything?” Qin Han asked, frowning.
However, Qin Han didn’t continue that topic and instead asked, “How long have you been eating like this?”
“Ah?” The man’s face panicked upon hearing Qin Han’s question, and then he stuttered, “Qin…Doctor Qin, you…”
“I am a doctor, a doctor with decent medical skills,” Qin Han said lightly.
“Half a year…” On hearing this, the man lowered his head, unable to meet Qin Han’s gaze.
Qin Han shook his head and said, “Why would you do this?
In this day and age, it’s not necessary to eat dirt to stave off hunger, right?”
“I heard an old man at the construction site say that during a famine in the past, the older generation survived by eating dirt.
My kid is in university now, a good one, and I didn’t want him to feel inferior at school, so I thought of saving some money to send to him.”
When talking about his child, the man’s face was full of pride, yet he completely ignored his own health.
Qin Han frowned and looked at the man, “Do you know that the dirt eaten by the older generation was different?
It’s called ‘Guan Yin soil’.”
“Even if it was ‘Guan Yin soil,’ it can’t be consumed for a long period.
Excessive consumption can cause gastroparesis, bloating, edema.
During the famine, many died from bloating and inability to defecate due to ‘Guan Yin soil’!”
“If it’s just a few meals, it’s not a big deal, but long-term use will also damage the body.”
“The dirt you’ve been eating is just construction debris, which not only lacks the softness of ‘Guan Yin soil,’ but also contains many chemicals.”
After finishing, Qin Han let out a deep sigh; he couldn’t believe that in this day and age, people were still eating dirt!
Upon hearing this, the man quickly asked, “Doctor Qin, then what about me…”
“I’m not in the habit of deceiving my patients.
Your situation is serious, you need surgery,” Qin Han said, frowning.
On hearing this, the man was shocked and said hurriedly, “Doctor Qin, that’s not possible, surgery costs a lot of money.”
“Doctor Qin, I beg you, just prescribe me some medicine, and I’ll never eat it again.”
Qin Han shook his head and said, “It’s already too late, the excessive amount of non-dietary earth has corroded your internal organs.
Your fainting today is a sign that your organs have already partially failed.”
“But, Doctor Qin, I can’t have the surgery!” the man said in a panic.
“Doctor Qin, please help me, let me live another five years, no surgery, I can’t have surgery.”
Qin Han looked at the man and asked, “Why only five years?”
“My child just started university.
It’s a combined bachelor and master’s program; he’ll graduate in five years and will be able to support himself.
I can’t delay his entire life!” the man said, somewhat choked up.
“Does your child know about this?” Qin Han asked.
The man shook his head and said, “How could I tell him?
If he knew, he definitely wouldn’t go to school.
He refused to study before because he saw how hard I worked at the construction site.
He wanted to work instead of studying, and I had to beat him before he finally went.
Now he is working part-time at university to earn his tuition…I don’t want him to be worse off than others…”
Qin Han didn’t know what to say upon hearing this.
To blame the child?
The child was already very sensible.
It’s just sad how fate tests those in unfortunate circumstances!
By then, a middle-aged man who was present had tears streaming down his face, “Old Zhang, why are you doing this?
Don’t you know, the money you sent, your kid hasn’t spent a cent of it?
He has been earning all his tuition on his own and saving for you.”
After saying this, the middle-aged man took out his phone and said, “I need to call Xiao Long; he has money, you definitely need to have the surgery!”
“Brother Wang!
Don’t call, if you do, I’ll never acknowledge you as my brother!” Old Zhang yelled fiercely.
Becoming emotionally stirred up, Old Zhang suddenly started coughing violently, and then he spat out a mouthful of fresh blood, instantly staining the bed covers red…
