Chapter 46: Poisoning from Eating Huang Hua Cai

  "What's going on over there? Let's go take a look." Lin Ziman's curiosity was completely piqued, and he strode towards the crowd that had gathered.

  Zhang Wenzhong shook his head and smiled, following behind her as she walked away.

  After squeezing into the crowd of onlookers, Zhang Wen-zhong and Lin Zi-man finally saw that a cleaning woman in her forties was lying on the ground, pale-faced and covered in cold sweat.

  A fashionable and hot-figured woman was squatting beside the female cleaner, her right hand tightly grasping the cleaner's wrist, actually taking her pulse.

  This fashionably dressed woman is wearing a light yellow short-sleeved shirt, with a high chest circumference of at least 35D. Her lower body is wearing an ultra-short hot pants, showing off her white and slender beautiful legs. What's most surprising is that this fiery figure has a face as cute as a loli.

  Young face and huge breasts!

  Zhang Wenzhong clearly heard that in the crowd of onlookers, many otaku with sinister glints in their eyes were muttering a certain term under their breath.

  The young girl with a youthful face and large breasts quickly released her grip on the female janitor's hand.

  The girl looked around and frowned, saying: "Please, all of you onlookers, make way for me. What are you all crowding here for? Are you watching the owner of the building or the leader of the group? Have you never seen a beauty before, or have you never seen someone suffering from heatstroke? What's wrong with you all? Hurry up and clear a path, patients need to keep cool." Then she pointed at someone next to her and said: "Hey, that guy, I'm talking about you, the one wearing glasses and holding an umbrella. How can a man like you still be holding an umbrella? Come over quickly and hold this parasol for this auntie."

  The man who was scolded by the girl first stunned, then his expression was a bit awkward, but finally he still walked over, holding an umbrella to shade the female sanitation worker.

  Then the girl pointed to another person in the crowd and said, "And you, please go to the cold drink store next door and buy a bowl of iced red sugar mung bean paste."

  She saw the person she was referring to, who had indeed turned and gone into a nearby cold drink shop. The girl nodded in satisfaction, then opened the bag she was carrying with her and pulled out a bottle of menthol oil, which she applied to the cleaner's forehead and temples. Next, she took out a silver needle box from the bag, picked up a silver needle, and prepared to administer acupuncture to the female cleaner.

  "Wait." Zhang Wen Zhong suddenly spoke up at this moment.

  "What are you yelling about?" The girl turned her head to look at Zhang Wen, frowning and said: "You scared me, almost poked the wrong acupoint."

  Zhang Wenzhong ignored the girl's dissatisfaction and asked in a low voice, "Are you planning to treat this aunt with heatstroke treatment?"

  "Isn't this nonsense? Auntie's condition, if it's not heatstroke, what else could it be?" The girl glared at Zhang WenZhong with dissatisfaction.

  Zhang Wen-zhong shook his head and said in a low voice, "Although she has symptoms of heatstroke, it is actually caused by food poisoning. If we only treat her as if she had heatstroke, it would be useless."

  "Are you saying that the aunt's heatstroke was caused by food poisoning?" The girl looked at Zhang Wen and then turned back to look at the female cleaner, frowning slightly as she asked: "Is there any evidence?"

  "Take a closer look at her, and you'll see that her eyeballs are slightly sunken, and the elasticity of her skin has already weakened. Her complexion is pale and dull, with cold limbs and whole body sweating profusely, and her spirit is already dazed. Now open her mouth again and take a look, her tongue is light in color and smooth. You also took her pulse just now, if your diagnosis was accurate, you should be able to diagnose her current pulse condition, which is floating and rootless." Zhang Wen Zhong said here, suddenly stretched out his hand and pointed to the left side of the female cleaner, saying: "If you can get these people blocking your view to move aside, you'll see that there's a puddle of vomit over there, which was spat out by this aunt. In that puddle of vomit, there are still undigested yellow flowers."

  The girl exclaimed in surprise: "You mean to say that this auntie was poisoned by eating the yellow flower vegetable?"

  "That's right." Zhang Wen Zhong nodded and said.

  The girl was skeptical of Zhang Wenzhong's words, because she didn't believe that Zhang Wenzhong could see so many problems at a glance. With a heart full of doubt, she hastily parted the crowd and ran to the place Zhang Wenzhong had mentioned, and indeed saw a puddle of vomit.

  A moment later, the girl returned to the female cleaner's side.

  "How is it?" Zhang Wenzhong asked.

  "Actually, there really is yellow flower vegetable." The girl's face was full of surprised expressions and said: "These yellow flower vegetables are still fresh, it seems that Auntie did not thoroughly heat them up, just simply cold mixed and ate. Fresh yellow flower vegetables contain autumn crocus alkaloids, which can easily cause gastrointestinal poisoning symptoms. Moreover, based on my observation, the color of these yellow flower vegetables is blackish, they should have gone bad already. She really has food poisoning!"

  "What should we do now?" The girl asked Zhang Wen-zhong. At this time, she already knew that Zhang Wen-zhong's medical skills were above hers, so she also humbly consulted with him.

  "If it's food poisoning, we should first use emetics to make Auntie vomit out all the remaining Huanghua vegetables in her stomach. Then, we can give her mung bean soup to replenish fluids and neutralize the toxins, as well as egg whites to protect the gastric mucosa and detoxify." Zhang Wenzhong thought this girl was quite good, so he started guiding her. "However, emetics will consume the body's energy, and given Auntie's current weak state, we can't directly administer emetics. We should first use a method to consolidate her internal energy, then use emetics to induce vomiting, thereby avoiding causing additional harm to Auntie's body."

  "Alright, I understand." The girl was also a person with great insight. Zhang Wen-zhong gave her a general direction for treatment and she immediately began to implement it in detail.

  The girl lifted the female cleaner's clothes, her right hand pinched the silver needle, and inserted it into her dantian, guanyuan, zhongwan, weishu, zusanli and other acupoints. And applied the tonifying method to regulate and supplement her depleted yuanqi.

  After witnessing the girl's acupuncture techniques, Zhang Wenzhong nodded in satisfaction: "Hmm, not bad. The acupuncture technique is quite skilled. Accurate point selection, moderate force. Not bad, really not bad."

  "Look at you, so arrogant." Lin Ziman glared at him discontentedly and said: "You're probably not much older than others, are you? Do you deserve to use this tone of a senior?"

  Zhang Wenzhong couldn't help but laugh dryly, shaking his head slightly before saying to Lin Ziman: "Doctor Lin... ah, no, I should be calling you Ziman now. Would you mind going to buy a few bowls of mung bean soup and also see if there are any raw eggs for sale around here? Buy a few of those too."

  Save a life as if putting out a fire, Lin Zi couldn't dare to hesitate, and hastily nodded: "Alright, I'll go right away." He turned around and squeezed out of the crowd, rushing to buy the things Zhang Wen Zhong had specified.
