Chapter 240 Dementia
Chapter 240 Dementia
As Ye Tang and the other two were talking, they heard Guo Jiaojiao's voice coming from not far away.
The two looked at each other and immediately led their people over.
Guo Jiaojiao was caring about her master when she suddenly saw a fire in the forest and became extremely alert.
"Is it Jiaojiao?" Ye Tang's voice came.
Guo Jiaojiao's eyes suddenly lit up.
"Sister Tang."
Nun Qingshuang stopped her and asked, "Do you know the beauty who just fought with me?"
Guo Jiaojiao: "Uh???"
Before she could react, Ye Tang and his group had already walked over. Seeing Ye Tang's face, Guo Jiaojiao breathed a sigh of relief.
"Sister Tang, it's really you, why are you here?"
"Let's go to Xuzhou City for fun when we have nothing to do." Ye Tang said casually: "What about you? Why are you and Master Qingshuang here? It's not safe in the mountains and forests."
Before Guo Jiaojiao could say anything, Master Qingshuang asked hurriedly, "Do you really know each other?"
Guo Jiaojiao smiled and said: "Master, look at what you said, how could Sister Tang and I not know each other? She is my benefactor! You know about this! You also know her..."
She paused as she spoke: "Master, have you forgotten again?"
She anxiously grabbed Master Qingshuang's hand: "Just now you insisted on letting me watch over the donkey cart while you went to relieve yourself. As a result, you didn't come back for a long time. I came to look for you and you said you were lost. You are not lost, you forgot the way, right? Master, you..."
Master Qingshuang looked away: "I didn't forget, I just got lost."
She said to Ye Tang: "I'm really sorry for not recognizing you at first. Now I remember that you are Jiaojiao's benefactor."
Ye Tang still felt that Master Qingshuang was very strange, so she asked with concern: "Does Master Qingshuang often forget things?"
Guo Jiaojiao shook her head: "It didn't happen before, it's only been like this in the last two months. I wanted to take Master to see a doctor, but Master refused to go."
Master Qingshuang glanced at her and said, "I'm not sick, you don't have to worry about me. Since we all know each other, why don't we hurry on together?"
Nun Qingshuang and Guo Jiaojiao followed Ye Tang and his group to the resting place. They saw that Ye Tang and his group not only had a tent, but also a bonfire, and had cooked a spicy hot pot, as well as snacks, melon seeds, and more.
Master Qingshuang's eyes widened in surprise: "You guys are eating so well in the wilderness."
Ye Tang said as a matter of course: "You can't let yourself suffer when you go out!"
She invited Master Qingshuang and the other two to sit down and share the delicious food.
While Master Qingshuang was immersed in the delicious food, Ye Tang quietly pulled Guo Jiaojiao aside and asked about Master Qingshuang's situation.
Only then did they know that the reason Guo Jiaojiao and the other person came to Xuzhou City was to look for an old friend. That old friend was a monk who was originally in the capital, but later came to Xuzhou City somehow.
Guo Jiaojiao also talked about how her master often forgot things.
After hearing this, Ye Tang analyzed it carefully and came to a guess.
"Your master may have Alzheimer's disease."
Guo Jiaojiao was confused: "What?"
Ye Tang explained: "That is Alzheimer's disease."
Guo Jiaojiao was shocked and said: "No, no, it won't happen..."
She knew about dementia, which was incurable.
There is a small village at the foot of the mountain where the nunnery lies. In the village there is an old man who suffers from dementia. He not only forgets recent people and events, but when the condition becomes serious, he also forgets past events. His temperament also changes drastically. He often talks nonsense and speaks without thinking. He can't even find his way home.
One time, the old man went to the town to buy salt without telling his family, and then he never came back. No matter how hard his family looked for him, they couldn't find him.
How could the master get that disease? She is such a martial arts expert and has such a good health.
There is no way you can get sick.
"Master doesn't have dementia, she doesn't." Guo Jiaojiao couldn't help but murmur.
Ye Tang held her shoulders and said, "Don't get excited. This is just my guess. I'm not a doctor. You have to find a doctor to check your master to make sure. If he is not sick, then he is fine. If he is sick, he will get better sooner."
After separating from Guo Jiaojiao, Ye Tang went to talk to Xiao Jingxuan alone to discuss the matter of Master Qingshuang.
After Xiao Jingxuan heard Ye Tang talk about Master Qingshuang's condition, he also felt that there was a high possibility that Master Qingshuang had dementia.
Ye Tang asked: "Can it be cured?"
Jamel Xiao shook his head: “This disease mostly occurs in the elderly. Although I am a miracle doctor, I am not a real god. I can’t cure it, I can only control it.”
Ye Tang sighed: "I hope it's not what we guessed."
Dementia is a chronic, irreversible disease in China. It is usually incurable and can only be controlled.
Guo Jiaojiao cares about her master very much. As a friend, she also hopes that Guo Jiaojiao can live a good life and that her relatives and friends around her are healthy and safe.
Guo Jiaojiao thought about Ye Tang's words, and talked a lot with Master Qingshuang before going to bed. The master and disciple slept in the same tent and talked about many things in the past.
The next day, everyone got up early, packed up, and continued to rush to Xuzhou City.
On the way, Guo Jiaojiao talked to Ye Tang about her master alone.
"Sister Tang, I talked a lot with Master last night, but Master forgot everything when he woke up this morning." Guo Jiaojiao's face was full of worry, and she clenched her sleeves with both hands: "I'm so scared, I'm really scared."
Ye Tang comforted her: "Don't think too much, your master will be fine. My husband is a doctor, why don't you let him take a look at your master?"
Guo Jiaojiao was surprised: "Isn't my brother-in-law a prince?"
Ye Tang smiled and said: "The prince can also be a doctor. He learned medical skills in the countryside."
Guo Jiaojiao was a little excited when she heard this: "Then, Sister Tang, please tell my brother-in-law to take a look at my master."
Guo Jiaojiao went to see Master Qingshuang and told her about seeing a doctor.
Master Qingshuang refused again.
Guo Jiaojiao plopped down and knelt in front of her: "Master, you must be hiding something from me. If you don't go, I will kneel down forever."
"Master, I beg you, can you let Brother Xiao diagnose it?"
"Jiaojiao is very worried about you. She has all kinds of thoughts every night, fearing that one day you will go out and not be able to find your way home."
Seeing her crying so hard that her tears and snot were all mixed together, Master Qingshuang took out a handkerchief with disgust and wiped her face: "Don't cry, Master will listen to you, do whatever you want!"
Guo Jiaojiao burst into laughter, took Master Qingshuang's hand and came in front of Xiao Jingxuan.
Ye Tang had already informed Xiao Jingxuan, and when he saw Master Qingshuang coming over, he didn't waste any words and directly took her pulse. After observing, smelling, asking and palpating, Xiao Jingxuan finally confirmed that Master Qingshuang was indeed suffering from dementia.
Guo Jiaojiao was shocked and her face turned pale.
Nun Qingshuang was calm and composed. She smiled and said, "I have known about my situation for a long time. That is why I stayed with Jiaojiao all the time when she came to visit me. I was afraid that I would forget her if we were separated."
Nun Qingshuang gently touched Guo Jiaojiao's head and said, "A few months ago, I fought with a thief. Although I succeeded in capturing him alive and sending him to the authorities, I was also accidentally tricked by him and got injured on the head. After that, I started to forget things."
She took off her cloth cap, and Jamel Xiao really saw the scar on her head.
The wound healed, and the scar left was covered by the hair, making it difficult to be noticed.
Guo Jiaojiao burst into tears. Master Qingshuang comforted her for a long time before she stopped crying. She vowed that she would take care of the master for the rest of her life!
Master Qingshuang smiled with emotion.
The team entered Xuzhou city. Guo Jiaojiao and Master Qingshuang separated from Ye Tang and his companions. Their figures driving the ox carts were gradually lost in the bustling crowd.
