553 Leaving with Determination (1/2)
Sang Guzi and Wang Yao walked back to their accommodation to rest.
Wang Yao returned to Han's house at 3 p.m. The patient had woken up. He could move his eyes but couldn't speak.
Wang Yao checked the patient's pulse, which was still weak.
”He is getting better, but his condition is still critical,” he said. ”I've brought a third decoction with me.”
The Han brothers all got excited. They had seen the changes the other two decoctions had on their youngest brother, who had finally woken up.
Apart from Sang Guzi, one of the Han brothers had secretly asked a well-known doctor in Yunnan to take a look at his youngest brother to verify he was getting better. He thought it was important to get opinions from different doctors. Eventually, all the brothers were convinced that Wang Yao's treatment was effective.
”The third decoction is very expensive,” Wang Yao said.
”How much?” Han Xing asked.
”It is $1 million for one decoction,” Wang Yao said.
”How much?” Although Han Xing didn't show any facial expressions, he was shocked, as were his brothers.
”This is too expensive,” Han Zhiyu said.
Wang Yao looked at them calmly.
”OK, I'll buy it,” Han Xing said after keeping silent a moment.
”Can you please open the gauze on his arm and get me some cold water. I also need a sprinkling can,” Wang Yao said.
”OK,” Han Xing said.
Most households had these items, so they were immediately retrieved.
Wang Yao took out the Muscle Revitalizing powder and poured a small amount into the pot. He diluted the decoction with water in the small sprinkling can.
He loosened the gauze to expose the patient's rotten skin. The skin had turned purple and black. All the muscles and skin were rotten. It was like earth destroyed by magma. It was a shocking scene.
Wang Yao gently sprayed the Muscle Revitalizing powder onto the patient's arm.
”Change the gauze for him,” Wang Yao said after he finished the treatment.
”OK,” Han Xing said.
Wang Yao left the skin exposed to dry. He then wrap the patient's arm with clean gauze.
”I will come back tomorrow to check him again. Continue to give him the first two decoctions,” Wang Yao said.
”OK, Dr. Wang,” Han Xing said.
Facts spoke louder than anything. The Han brothers started to have faith in Wang Yao.
”I'll see you tomorrow,” Wang Yao said.
Wang Yao again declined the invitation for dinner. He really didn't feel comfortable having dinner with a bunch of people with whom he was not familiar. He preferred to have some simple dishes and a glass of wine with Sang Guzi.
It was still early when Wang Yao left the Han house. He decided to have a walk around Dali, which was a well-known tourist city.
He had never been to Dali before. He walked slowly along the streets. He didn't visit the hot tourist spots. Instead, he just wandered about. He soon reached a high place and saw a beautiful green lake. It was the famous Erhai Lake.
He walked quickly to reach Erhai Lake before sunset. What a nice place!
When he saw the small restaurants next to the lake, he decided to have dinner in one of them. He called Sang Guzi to meet him at Erhai Lake.
Sang Guzi arrived a moment later.
”Yo, you are fast,” Wang Yao said.
”I was nearby,” Sang Guzi said with a smile.
”Shall we order a bottle of wine?” Wang Yao suggested. Find authorized novels in Webnovel，faster updates, better experience，Please clickfor visiting.
”OK,” Sang Guzi replied.
In a small boutique restaurant, Wang Yao ordered several chef's special dishes and a bottle wine. The two of them enjoyed the meal, wine, and gentle gusts of wind.
The sun dropped, and the moon rose to the sky. It started to get dark, but the Erhai Lake Park was still full of people.
”People here look so relaxed,” Wang Yao said.
He had been observing people the whole afternoon. Dali was a slow-paced city. People looked happy and relaxed. There were very different from the residents in Beijing.
”Yes, the air here is fresh, and the weather is pleasant. This is a good place for retirees,” Sang Guzi said.
”You like this place, too?” Wang Yao asked.
”Yes,” Sang Guzi said. ”However, the number of tourists has been increasing the last few years. The city is no longer as quiet.”
”That's right,” Wang Yao said.
He and Sang Guzi chatted while eating and drinking. They didn't leave until after 9 p.m.
”If everything goes well, I will go back tomorrow. I'll leave the decoctions here,” Wang Yao said on his way back. ”It will take a long time to cure that young man.”
”OK,” Sang Guzi said. Wang Yao had mentioned that to him before.
Wang Yao returned to the cottage and spent another night there. He got up early the next morning. He had a simple breakfast and walked around the cottage before going to see the patient at the Han house.
”Give him the first two decoctions to take,” Wang Yao said after checking the patient's pulse.
”OK.” The servants gave the youngest brother the decoctions.
The treatment took two hours. Wang Yao checked the patient's pulse four times.
”Open the gauze,” Wang Yao said.
