When the kidney lacks essence, it lacks Yin. When there is no Yin to connect the large and small intestines, the intestines will beco dry, resulting in mutual pain. If there is no source of water upstream, there will be danger of drought downstream. The more dry and painful the upper part, the more urgent the bowel movent below."
Having said that, Du Heng looked at Wei Kaida with disdain. "Now tell , did I lie to you? Aren't these words straight from dical books and basic theories?"
Wei Kaida didn't argue this ti, staring blankly at Du Heng.
He couldn't believe that he, a thirty-year-old young man, was about to step into the life of a sixty-year-old.
After a long ti, Wei Kaida looked at Du Heng again. "Brother, since you can find the cause, you must have a solution, right?"
Du Heng said leisurely, "Yes."
The single word, heard by Wei Kaida, was like heavenly music, and he imdiately stood up excitedly. "Brother, tell quickly."
But Du Heng waved his hand gently. "I do have a solution, but I need to make it clear to you beforehand."
"You speak; I'm listening."
"Your problem can be cured; there is a solution."
Wei Kaida's face imdiately showed a smile, but Du Heng continued, "However, during the treatnt, you have to completely abstain from sex."
"Definitely, definitely! I won't even use my hands when going to the toilet," Wei Kaida was extrely happy.
What's the harm in giving up for a while for the sake of future happiness? He could still tell the difference between montary happiness and lifelong happiness.
"Listen to ," Du Heng interrupted Wei Kaida's joy again. "Even after the cure, you can't be as indulgent as before; you need to be restrained."
Wei Kaida suddenly froze. "What do you an?"
"It ans that in the future, for those kinds of things, once or twice a week is appropriate. And as you age, the number of tis needs to decrease. Any more, and your two Waist can't handle it. If you relapse, you'll have to live a solitary life, only able to watch, and never have a chance to regain your forr glory."
Wei Kaida paused for a mont, then said, "No problem, as long as I don't beco a eunuch now, I'm very happy. And I'm getting married soon, so I won't need that many tis in the future.
"From now on, I want to be a good husband devoted to my family."
Du Heng imdiately retorted, "Gross."
"Don't say that, brother, I'm speaking from the heart."
"It seems to that you're just compromising after finding your abilities insufficient. Otherwise, I really don't believe a dog can change its habit of eating shit."
Wei Kaida, knowing there was hope for him, had adjusted his ntality and laughed off Du Heng's disdain.
"Brother, write the prescription quickly. The longer it takes, the more scared I am. And I really need to use the restroom now, so hurry up."
"Pen and paper," Du Heng stated.
Imdiately Wei Kaida got up like a dogleg to find pen and paper. "Sir, your pen and paper are here."
Du Heng took the pen and quickly finished writing.
Wei Kaida looked at the words on the paper, then turned to Du Heng with a constipated expression.
Du Heng tossed the pen aside and laughed. "What's wrong?"
Wei Kaida's mouth twitched. "Brother, don't fool like this."
"Why do you say that?"
"Such a big problem of mine, and you only prescribe three dicines. Isn't that a bit perfunctory?"
Du Heng crossed his legs again and said confidently, "It's not about the amount of dicine; it's about its effectiveness."
"You'd better explain it to , or I won't feel reassured."
Du Heng sighed. "Alas, with your level, when can you take over your father's business? Listen carefully. Because you have a deficiency of both water and fire, we use rehmannia to nourish the true Yin in the kidneys and morinda to replenish the true Yang in the kidneys." Du Heng paused slightly. "Here you need to understand that morinda is a Yin-nourishing agent even though it replenishes Yang. This is because Yang is born and Yin grows, so there is no strong Yang harm."
"I understand that. Continue."
"The two herbs can nourish the kidney's water and fire, but they may not necessarily be able to facilitate communication between them. Consequently, the kidney qi may not quickly enter the large and small intestines. Adding sojutsu var helps the qi of the waist and navel. This way, the front and back Yin will be connected, and your problem with pain during urination and defecation will be easily solved."
Wei Kaida blinked twice. "Keep talking."
This ti it was Du Heng who was stunned. Full of doubt, he said, "Rehmannia, morinda, and sojutsu var—just three herbs. I've said it all."
Wei Kaida was a little anxious. "You only solved my problem with urination and defecation. What about that other part? How co there's no prescription for that part?"
"Ah," Du Heng laughed. "When the true Yin and true Yang are replenished, kidney essence will naturally be produced. Then just take so Six-Ingredient Rehmannia Pill."
"Really?"
"If you don't believe it, forget it."
Wei Kaida chuckled and eagerly got up and walked out. "If I don't trust my brother, who should I trust?"
He excitedly ran to the Hall, imdiately handed the prescription to the nurse Xiaoxiao, and said, "Xiaoxiao, get the dicine according to this house." Then he turned back to Du Heng and asked, "Du, how do I take the dicine?"
"Take two doses for each prescription, and seven prescriptions will suffice."
Wei Kaida "oh"-ed. "Why not prescribe more? Every ti I prescribe dicine for soone, I start with ten prescriptions."
Du Heng looked speechlessly at Wei Kaida. "How could you say such shaless words so openly? If you had a bit of conscience, you would give patients a little more dosage for each prescription and not need that many prescriptions."
Wei Kaida chuckled. "We need to make money. If the dosage is sufficient and two doses cure people, how can we make money? Besides, if the dosage is too large and causes problems, we can't afford to compensate the patients. A smaller dosage, even if it causes a reaction, will result in lighter symptoms, which is better for everyone."
Without worrying about whether his excuse was valid, he took the dicine prepared by Xiaoxiao and went directly to the decoction room behind him.
Although the Perilla Clinic looked like a small clinic, its structure was no different from a hospital Departnt. In addition, Wei Kaida's father was not stingy with money, and all the money-making equipnt was in place. There were electronic accupuncture treatnt machines and electromagnetic massage pillows. Of course, as a Traditional Chinese dicine Clinic, the decoction equipnt was also up to date. But looking at the decoction machine that resembled a pressure cooker, Du Heng now held reservations about it. At this ti last year, he had been quite passionate about using such high-pressure decoction machines. But after the Health Clinic also started using them, he began to regret it. It was indeed much more convenient. Decoction dicine that took thirty minutes to boil in a casserole could be ready in just fifteen minutes with the decoction machine, saving a lot of ti. And for patients who needed long-term dication, they could also have two or three days' worth of dicine, or even a week's worth, all in one pot, and then sealed and bagged. It saved patients' ti and energy and improved the clinic's efficiency. But the effect of each dication was always a bit worse than that of the casserole-cooked dicine. One or two points might not seem like much, and upon closer examination, there were no significant problems. But for Du Heng, who often used decoction dicine for ergency treatnt, the difference of one or two points might be worlds apart. So now when he uses dication, he subconsciously takes this aspect into consideration. However, on the whole, this device still has more benefits than drawbacks.
Wei Kaida handled the decoction and took the dicine all by himself. After putting down the dicine cup, his face finally showed a relaxed expression.
"Let's go, let's go eat together. I haven't sat down with you for a long ti." Wei Kaida gave so instructions to Xiaoxiao the nurse and then pulled Du Heng out of the clinic.
Three dishes, two servings of noodles, and one teacup each.
Wei Kaida wanted to drink so alcohol but, thinking of the dicine he had just taken, consciously decided against it. "Co on, let's drink tea instead of wine. I'm going to be a married man."
"Cheers." Du Heng laughed and clinked cups. "Have you set a date?"
"It's set, June 1st, and you'll be my best man." Wei Kaida looked at Du Heng seriously. "No excuses."
"Definitely." Du Heng agreed readily. "Why are you in such a hurry?"
"It's been three months. If I drag it on any longer, it'll be too obvious when she starts showing." Wei Kaida picked at his food and ate. "I won't say more; just co when the ti cos. Let's talk about you. Have you set a date?"
