Chapter 172 Guadi powder

Dong Guan said quickly: "Grandpa, it's like this. Sun Ren, who settled down in Xicheng, has a son who suffers from epilepsy. He usually runs around and beats people when he gets sick. Sun Ren loves his son very much, and somehow he messed around. Ask Huang Zuwei, the son of the old man Huang, to prescribe the prescription. After Huang Zuwei prescribed the prescription, the child ate it, broke out in a cold sweat, and died soon. He found a cart and sent him to the Huirentang Pharmacy to seek treatment from a doctor. As soon as he arrived at the door of the pharmacy, he swallowed his breath. Sun Ren cried and said that there was something wrong with the prescription of Dr. Lao Ling and Huang Zuwei, who used the wrong medicine and killed his son. In a fit of anger, the two sued the yamen. The three of them were against each other. Whether it was the prescription to kill the child or not, there was an endless dispute, and the Da Da people sent the younger one to ask Mr. to come to the hall to confirm."

When Du Wenhao heard it, it turned out that it was a medical dispute, so he asked himself to do the appraisal.Without refusing, he asked someone to bring out his little donkey, rode on a rickety ride, followed a few policemen and the old man Huang to the yamen.

He is an appraiser, and according to the law, he does not need to kneel down. Moreover, the Tuiguan master is his father-in-law, so of course there are other considerations.Pang Jinghui asked someone to prepare a grand master's chair in the hall. After Du Wenhao came up, he just bowed his hands and sat down on the grand master's chair.

Plaintiff Sun Ren knelt in the lobby, and the body of his young son was placed on the lobby platform and covered with a white cloth.Below the lobby, there were quite a few people watching and pointing around.

Doctor Lao Ling knelt in the lobby with his head bowed.

Pang Jinghui patted the gavel: "Plaintiff, who are you suing and what are you doing? Tell the truth."

Sun Ren kowtowed and cried, "My lord, I sue the quack doctor Huang Zuwei for accidentally injuring someone. My son suffers from epilepsy. I accidentally found out that there is an old bell doctor at the gate of Daxiangguo Temple. There is an ancestral tradition of treating epilepsy." The secret recipe. The treatment package is guaranteed, and the invalid refund is refunded. The prescription is effective when it is reversed, but the price is a bit expensive, and it only sells medicines and not prescriptions. I scraped together and saved enough money, and bought the medicine from Dr. Lao Ling. When I came back, I gave my son this medicine. My son quickly vomited and even vomited out the jaundice water. I was worried at first, but after vomiting, my son’s illness was really cured. Unfortunately, this medicine only works Three months later, I got sick again, so I raised money to buy medicine. My son vomited again after eating, and he recovered for three months after vomiting. After that, I went to buy it again.”

Pang Jinghui snorted, and said to the old doctor Ling: "You really know how to make money, doctor Ling, and you have never cut someone's root, and you have changed tricks to make people spend money on your medicine."

Doctor Lao Ling didn't dare to contradict the old man, he lowered his head and said nothing.

Sun Ren said: "Yeah, his medicine is too expensive. After buying it so many times, my only family property has been tossed and I have borrowed a lot of debt. It will be another three months. I have to work hard. I saved up enough money to buy the medicine. The effect of the medicine is too short, only three months, especially when I vomit after taking the medicine. I vomit all the medicine. It was too expensive, and I couldn’t afford it, so I went to Huang Zuwei for help and asked him to think of a way to see if he could prescribe some medicine so that his son would not vomit, so that the effect of the medicine might be prolonged for a while. Huang Zuwei didn’t know that What kind of medicine did Lao Ling use? I prescribed a drug for my son, saying it was antiemetic. My son took the medicine that Lao Ling treated for epilepsy first, and then took the antiemetic medicine prescribed by Huang Zuwei, but he did not vomit. But I was covered in cold sweat and my eyes turned white. I rushed to the pharmacy and died before I reached the door. My son was killed just like that, please master me. Woo woo woo..."

Pang Jinghui turned his head and asked Huang Zuwei: "Defendant, is what the plaintiff said just now true?"

Huang Zuwei is a candidate for the title of the township examination. He has a good reputation and does not need to kneel down. With his hands behind his back, he said loudly: "What the plaintiff said is basically true, but I am not at fault for this matter. He came to me and said that Doctor Lao Ling prescribed it. The medicine is too expensive, and it only lasts for three months. Let me think of a way to make the child not vomit after taking the medicine, so that the medicine's effect can last longer. I prescribed pinellia, clove and other antiemetics, I also used Evodia rutaecarpa vinegar and externally applied it to Yongquan acupoint to stop vomiting. The vomiting stopped, but the child also died. I am also very sad that the child died, but there is nothing wrong with my prescription. Please learn from me.”

"Doctor Ling, what about you? What do you want to say?"

Doctor Lao Ling shook his head: "The medicine I prescribed is fine."

Pang Jinghui said to Du Wenhao: "Dr. Du, come and identify it. Whose fault is it?"

Du Wenhao said: "Now it seems that there are several possibilities for the child's death, or died of epilepsy, or died of Lao Ling's medicine, or died of Huang Zuwei's antiemetic, or died of other reasons such as accidents. In order to distinguish right from wrong in this case, an autopsy must be performed on the child, and it will be clear after the cause of death is found out. I just don’t know whether the family members of the deceased are willing to perform an autopsy on the child.”

After Pang Jinghui asked, Sun Ren thought for a while, nodded and said, "Okay, as long as we can find out the cause of my son's death, let's do an autopsy."

Pang Jinghui ordered to leave the hall temporarily and asked Zaoli to transport the body of the child on the platform to the mortuary. Under the supervision of the plaintiff and the defendant, Du Wenhao performed an autopsy on the child's body.

No obvious trauma or internal injury was found after the autopsy, nor was there any disease lesion that could be killed immediately.It seems that the cause of death is mainly concentrated in poisoning.Due to the lack of poison testing methods, Du Wenhao can only judge by the symptoms of the child before his death, and check the stomach contents of the deceased.After it was over, Du Wenhao reported that the cause of death had been ascertained.Pang Jinghui decided to resume the trial of the case.

After resuming his promotion, Du Wenhao asked the old doctor, "What medicine did you prescribe for this child?"

Doctor Lao Ling said in a low voice, "This is the secret recipe handed down from my ancestors, so I can't tell outsiders."

Du Wenhao walked over, stretched out his hand and said, "Can you show me a bag?"

Dr. Lao Ling knew that the government was investigating the case. A child died after taking his medicine. He was also afraid of being responsible, so he dared not refuse. He took out a small package of medicine from his arms and handed it to Du Wenhao.

Du Wenhao took the package of medicine powder, looked at it carefully, put a little bit of it on his tongue with his finger and felt it, and then spit it out quickly: "I know what your medicine is, Guadi powder, right?"

Doctor Lao Ling froze for a moment, then nodded.

Du Wenhao said: "I never imagined that you would use Guadi San to induce vomiting to treat epilepsy. This method of inducing vomiting can remove some toxins and thus relieve the symptoms of epilepsy. However, this can only treat the symptoms but not the root cause, so three months The epilepsy will attack again, and you have to buy medicine to induce vomiting, so as to relieve the symptoms, and so on. You have made a lot of money from it, but the child's illness has not fundamentally improved. Don't you blush for this money? "

Dr. Lao Ling stroked his beard: "This old man sells medicine to make money. One is willing to fight and the other is willing to suffer. It is impossible to talk about blushing or not."

"You have peace of mind! It's because your medicine that treats the symptoms but not the root cause is too expensive. Sun Ren and the others had no choice but to find a way to prolong the effect of the medicine. They used this antiemetic method, and the child was poisoned and died! "

"That's their business. I said it when I sold the medicine. After taking the medicine, the child will vomit. Don't worry about it. Just let him vomit. It will be fine after he vomits. Ask the old man, did I say so? "

Sun Ren nodded and said, "He said so."

"So that's right, I have no responsibility at all here."

"Whether there is responsibility or not is up to the officials." Du Wenhao sneered, cupped his hands and said, "My lord, Sun Ren's child died of Guatisan poisoning. Guatisan is an acute emetic, but Guatisan It is poisonous, and you have to vomit it after taking it to avoid poisoning, but they use antiemetics to prevent the child from vomiting, so the poison of Guadisan cannot be eliminated, and the child eventually died of poisoning.”

Pang Jinghui asked: "Then, is Laoling Medical Guadi Powder suitable for treating epilepsy?"

Du Wenhao said: "Whenever there is evil poison in the body, the doctor chooses the method of vomiting, sweating and purging according to the condition. If the disease is on the surface of the body, the method of sweating should be used; if the disease is in the body, the method of diarrhea should be used to defecate To detoxify, if the disease is in the upper energizer, you can use the method of vomiting to detoxify. Epilepsy is caused by brain trauma or genetic factors such as visceral disorders, phlegm turbidity, qi reverse disorder, and internal movement of wind and yang. It’s really evil, and logically it shouldn’t be treated with vomiting alone.”

Dr. Lao Ling sneered and said, "Who said that Gua Di San can't cure epilepsy? This is a secret recipe handed down from my ancestors. I don't know how many people have been cured by this method. You can inquire about it. Doctor Du, don't think you can heal Hua Tuo's wounds by laparotomy." Divine skills, you know everything, you can do everything! There are short and strong! Young people!"

Du Wenhao smiled lightly: "You're right. Guadi San is indeed used to treat epilepsy. The so-called congestion of phlegm and saliva, which confounds the orifices, is thought to be epilepsy. Phlegm epilepsy usually has a lot of phlegm, and when it occurs, phlegm is blocked in the throat. In between, shortness of breath, fainting and spitting foam. Therefore, in the treatment of epilepsy in young children, one twist gold and rolling phlegm pills are often used to lower the qi and drop phlegm to ventilate. If the phlegm is upward, Guadi powder can also be used to induce vomiting and eliminate phlegm. You can’t use Guadi Powder alone for treatment, as you can’t finish spit out the phlegm of epilepsy, and it can’t cure epilepsy. Moreover, Guadi Powder is poisonous and should not be used for a long time, especially for young children. Therefore, although it cannot be said that you have used the wrong medicine , but at least mediocre."

The old Ling doctor suddenly became dumb, looking at Du Wenhao, the so-called expert stretches out his hand to know if there is any, the old Ling doctor knew that he couldn't play tricks in front of this young man, his old face flushed a little, and he bowed his head in silence.

Pang Jinghui said: "So, the child's medical prescription was improper first, and Huang Zuwei's ignorant use of antiemetics caused poisoning later, and the two jointly caused the child's death?"

Du Wenhao nodded and said, "Yes. But the main responsibility lies with Huang Zuwei."

Pang Jinghui looked at Huang Zuwei: "What else do you have to say now?"

Huang Zuwei collapsed to the ground with a groan, cold sweat dripping from his forehead: "Wansheng is ashamed. He is not good at learning, and he used drugs indiscriminately, causing harm to people's lives. Wansheng is guilty and willing to order any punishment."

Sun Ren even regretted crying and slapped himself on the forehead as he cried. Because he was afraid that the medicine would be expensive, he came up with such a bad idea, but instead killed his son, and couldn't help but feel extremely regretful.
