The rise of the poor

Chapter 2279 The Pain After the Stirring

"Come here, Dr. Wang, right? Please take a look at me and tell me what's wrong and how to treat it. I'm in so much pain that I can't sleep, and I'm extremely exhausted."

After Luo Longwen passed the initial examination of Ah San, he beckoned Ah San to come forward and examine him.

Ah San stepped forward and pretended to take Luo Longwen's pulse. To be honest, he couldn't even feel the pulse, but he made a serious face while touching his chin, looking very professional.

Next, Ah San examined Luo Longwen's injured ribs and teeth. He was very professional, except when examining the teeth, he seemed to have fallen back into his old ways, looking at them like he was examining livestock teeth. However, with Luo Longwen and his two lackeys around, he seemed even more professional.

After pretending to examine his pulse, Ah San stroked his chin and slowly said, "Sir, you have pain after being slapped, which is causing your insomnia."

As soon as he opened his mouth, he started using the same old rhetoric again.

He used to follow the veterinarians around, tapping pigs and slapping dogs. Some pigs and dogs would whine and not eat or sleep well after being castrated, and farmers would ask what was wrong. He would give this kind of explanation, which would come out as soon as he got nervous.

"Wait a minute?! Pain after the slap?!" Luo Longwen looked at Ah San, sensing something was wrong. Was this what he heard? He asked suspiciously.

"Which 'instigator' are you talking about?!" The two lackeys also sensed that something was amiss, but they couldn't quite put their finger on it.

"Hehe, that's our jargon, what we doctors say. The master broke his ribs, right? Ribs, in our jargon, are called rib shanks, or rib shanks. Pain behind the shank means pain behind the rib shank." Ah San was quite witty, he chuckled and tried to explain calmly.

"You're right, I do have pain after being fanned." Luo Longwen was relieved. He felt that this Doctor Wang had hit the nail on the head. He was very professional and deserved to be called a doctor from a three-generation family of doctors. He hit the nail on the head.

"The pain is so bad I can't even sleep. I finally manage to fall asleep, but the boat rocks and I'm woken up by the pain. This keeps happening, and I'm so tired. My eyes are all dark circles." Luo Longwen pointed to his dark circles and said wearily.

"Doctor, what do you think should be done to treat my master's back pain?" the two lackeys asked eagerly.

"It's true that you're a lucky man who met me. For others, this pain after a slap is difficult to treat, but for me, it's not difficult at all. I have an ancestral secret recipe for treating this pain, and I guarantee you'll sleep soundly."

Ah San straightened his chest and said confidently, with the air of a highly respected doctor, making a promise.

"A family secret recipe?! Guaranteed to keep you sleeping soundly?!"

Upon hearing this, Luo Longwen was so excited he couldn't sit still. He dreamed of nothing more than getting him cured and letting him get a good night's sleep.

"What kind of secret recipe is that?! Do you have any medicinal herbs on the ship?!" the two lackeys asked with concern.

"So it's true that the sir is blessed by the heavens. Among the medicinal herbs I brought on this trip was a secret recipe for treating post-inflammatory pain, and some medicine for diarrhea. I kept these medicines for myself. After all, it's different on land; there are no doctors on a ship, and our line of work is prone to fighting. I prepared these for my own use," Ah San explained, bowing and scraping.

In the river!

In the Ganges!

Luo Longwen and his two lackeys exchanged a glance and nodded. Luo Longwen then instructed the two lackeys and Ah San, "You two assist Doctor Wang and go and brew some medicine for me to try. If it works, don't worry, I will reward you handsomely. Of course, if you dare to lie to me, I will make you regret it."

Since it concerned his own safety, Luo Longwen was very cautious. At this time, having two lackeys follow along to assist him was actually a way for them to supervise and monitor him.

Luo Longwen still couldn't completely trust Ah San and the captain, so he had two lackeys keep an eye on them to avoid being deceived.

This Dr. Wang looks like a doctor, but whether he really is or how skilled he is remains to be seen until the treatment is effective.

"Don't worry, sir, we will definitely do our best to assist Doctor Wang."

The two lackeys knew what Luo Longwen was talking about as soon as they saw him sticking out his butt. They understood Luo Longwen's intention and emphasized the word "assistant" to show that they understood.

"Very good, go ahead, I can't wait to see Doctor Wang's miraculous healing skills." Luo Longwen urged them to hurry up.

The two lackeys then led Ah San and the captain outside, saying, "Doctor Wang, let's hurry up and brew the medicine. My master is waiting to drink it."

"Okay, okay."

As he walked, the Indian man glanced at the captain, who gave him a reassuring look, which put the Indian man at ease.

Soon, the group arrived at the Indian's large communal cabin. Two lackeys asked the Indian, "Where are all your medicinal herbs?"

Ah San looked at the captain.

While the two lackeys weren't looking, the captain gestured towards Ah San's pillow. Ah San understood immediately and quickly went to his pillow. When he lifted the pillow, sure enough, there was a large bag of medicinal herbs under it.

These medicinal herbs were all the herbs the captain had collected from the ship. There were common medicines kept on board to treat diarrhea, as well as all sorts of other medicines carried by the sailors. Basically, everything that was available was collected.

"Here, these are the medicinal herbs I prepared myself. I usually keep them under my pillow so I can feel at ease."

Ah San brought out a large bag of medicinal herbs and said to his two lackeys.

The two lackeys, unsuspecting, urged him to hurry up and get the medicine for Luo Longwen so that he could take it as soon as possible.

Ah San casually grabbed a few herbs from the herbal packet and said with a confident and certain look, "This is my family's secret recipe passed down through generations."

"Just these few herbs?!" The two lackeys looked at the few herbs that Ah San had grabbed and felt that it was a bit too few.

"It's not about the quantity of medicine, but its effectiveness. You wouldn't understand," the Indian man casually made up.

The two lackeys scratched their heads. "Alright, we really don't know. You decide." Then they urged, "The medicine is ready. Let's go and decoct it now and see how it works. If it works well, then everything is fine. If it doesn't work well, hmph, I'll make sure you regret it."

"Don't worry, it's a three-generation family heirloom, guaranteed to work," Ah San said confidently, patting his chest.

Seeing how confident Ah San was, the two lackeys stopped doubting him and urged him to hurry up and prepare the medicine.

There were no medicine pots on the boat, so the Indian man found a clay pot, put the herbs in it, added water, and started boiling.

The two lackeys stayed close by, watching Ah San prepare the medicine.

Gumbling.

Soon, the distinctive, unpleasant smell of the medicinal herbs filled the air. Seeing that the decoction was almost ready, the two lackeys relaxed. (End of Chapter)
