Volume 4: Transformation into Mystery Chapter 609: Separation of life and death!
Unknowingly, time passed very quickly. In the blink of an eye, Gao Zhiyao was already in his twenties. He had started a family and married the gentle daughter of a nearby neighbor. He also took over the job of doctor in the clinic.
At this time, Gao Youwen had already taught Gao Zhiyao medical skills for several years, and his medical skills had become extremely good.
Gao Youwen is already middle-aged and has begun to hand over all the affairs of the clinic to his son Gao Zhiyao, and focus more on taking care of the elderly people in his family.
At this time, the Gao Sheng couple and the Tang Wu couple were already in their sixties, and their faces had become extremely old. Li Xuanfeng could clearly feel that a lot of death energy had already appeared in them!
That is a sign that your life span is about to end!
The Gao Sheng couple and the Lei Wu couple were already extremely weak, but fortunately they did not have any diseases, they were just susceptible to typhoid fever.
During the decades he lived in Qingshan City, Li Xuanfeng would make some Chinese herbal broth every now and then, which was not only delicious but also useful for regulating the body.
It is the Chinese herbal broth that Li Xuanfeng prepares every now and then that has enabled Gao Sheng and others to remain free of any disease even after they are over 70 years old.
On this day, after Li Xuanfeng pondered for a long time, he said solemnly to Mr. and Mrs. Gao Sheng and Mr. and Mrs. Lei Wu: "From now on, I will check your pulse once a day."
Those who had lived in the clinic for decades and had witnessed countless lives and deaths quickly guessed Li Xuanfeng's purpose.
They could also feel that their bodies had become extremely weak and they were afraid that they didn't have much time left!
They already knew that Li Xuanfeng took their pulses every day in order to check their physical condition.
Of course, Li Xuanfeng would also symbolically take Shen Luoyan's pulse, otherwise Gao Sheng and others would definitely suspect this abnormality.
Gao Youwen would also ask to help Li Xuanfeng diagnose his pulse, so Li Xuanfeng had to use his cultivation to change his pulse, so that his condition would be almost exactly the same as Gao Sheng and the other three.
Although they knew they didn't have much time left to live, Gao Sheng and others only felt reluctant to leave their families and had no regrets.
Although he has not achieved any great achievements in his life, he has saved a large number of patients in the clinic. His children and grandchildren are filial and his family is harmonious, which is already his greatest happiness.
Gao Sheng and others immediately recalled the scene when they first met Doctor Li. Nostalgia emerged in their cloudy eyes and their hearts were filled with emotion.
If they were given a choice, they would continue to follow Dr. Li without hesitation and work even harder for him.
After starting to take the pulse of Gao Sheng and others every day, Li Xuanfeng would prescribe one or several prescriptions every day and ask Gao Youwen to pick up the herbs according to the prescriptions and decoct the medicine, or boil the medicinal herbs into a broth.
The effects of these prescriptions are almost the same as those used to treat Old Zhang back then. This is an attempt to increase the lifespan of Gao Sheng and others!
After what happened with Master Zhang, Gao Sheng immediately understood what Li Xuanfeng was thinking when he saw the herbs he prepared. He was deeply moved and bowed to Li Xuanfeng with his fists clasped. He said with deep emotion, "It is a great honor for us to meet Doctor Li."
Their lives were completely changed after they met Li Xuanfeng in this life. Now that their lifespan is about to end, Doctor Li is actually doing his best to increase their lifespan.
Being able to meet such a good boss is a blessing earned in several lifetimes.
After hearing this, Li Xuanfeng waved his hand slightly and continued to think about the prescription that needed to be prepared.
This time is different from the last time when we treated Mr. Zhang. Mr. Zhang is the only one here, so the prescription that needs to be prepared will not be too complicated.
The four people who needed treatment this time were Gao Sheng and his wife, Lei Wu and his wife. Li Xuanfeng needed to take their pulse into consideration before prescribing the medicine.
Either prescribe a prescription and use the medicinal materials to make a medicinal soup that can be consumed together, or prescribe several prescriptions and let different people take them separately.
Although Li Xuanfeng diagnosed their pulses and prescribed medicine to treat their physical weaknesses, birth, aging, sickness and death could not be prevented, and Gao Sheng and the other three eventually began to run out of lifespans!
The first person to pass away was Gao Sheng’s wife.
After she fell asleep once, she didn't wake up the next day!
When Gao Sheng called his wife to get up, he found that her body was completely cold!
Gao Sheng stared at his wife for a long time, and finally with tears in his eyes, he told others about it.
After hearing this, Gao Youwen's expression was suddenly filled with deep sadness, but he still forced himself to suppress his sadness and immediately went to prepare for his funeral.
Upon learning of this, the atmosphere in the clinic seemed to be instantly filled with sadness, and the expressions of Lei Wu and his wife were full of reluctance.
We have lived together for decades, and now we suddenly lose someone forever. This kind of sadness is simply unavoidable.
Even Li Xuanfeng and Shen Luoyan couldn't help feeling sad.
Soon, the entire clinic was hung with linen and white silk, and younger generations such as Gao Youwen wore linen clothes.
The Li family clinic was closed for three days to hold the funeral for Gao Sheng's wife.
Amid the crying of Lei Ling and her mother, and the tears in the eyes of several other men, everyone buried Gao Sheng's wife with reluctance.
From then on, there was always one less person in the Li family clinic.
The death of Gao Sheng’s wife made Gao Sheng and Lei Wu realize that they had all reached the end of their lives, and it might not be long before they would follow in her footsteps!
Half a year later, before everyone had completely recovered from their grief, Lei Wu suddenly became bedridden one day. He was infected with typhoid fever and never got better!
A month later, Lei Wu finally passed away!
Gao Sheng looked up at the sky in a daze and murmured to himself, "Brother Lei, I didn't expect you to leave before me. Don't leave too fast. I'll be there soon. We'll still be brothers in the next life."
Although they felt extremely sad, Gao Sheng and others had to accept this reality. In the end, they could only suppress their sadness in their hearts and arrange all the funeral arrangements.
After the two elderly people passed away, Gao Sheng and others rarely smiled. This kind of sadness is not easy to get rid of.
Gao Youwen and Lei Ling looked at the four remaining elderly people in the family, their eyes full of reluctance. They knew that these elderly people would eventually leave one after another, and they would no longer have elders to rely on.
Li Xuanfeng felt all of this the most deeply. In fact , when Gao Sheng's wife and Lei Wu were about to die, he had already known it by taking their pulses, but he did not say it out loud.
After Lei Wu left, his wife was immersed in sorrow and cried all day long. Although Shen Luoyan and Lei Ling tried to persuade her, it was of little effect.
It is not easy for most people to accept the sudden departure of someone who has accompanied them for their entire life, especially when they have a deep relationship with each other.
Lei Wu's wife was already in poor health, and became even weaker as she was immersed in grief.
A year later, Lei Wu's wife died suddenly due to grief!
At this time, there were three fewer people in the Li family clinic. With Gao Zhiyao, there were only six people left, and it became much quieter.
Since then, Gao Sheng would often come to Li Xuanfeng's room and talk to him about his memories of the past few decades.
Hearing Gao Sheng constantly talking about the memories of the past few decades, Li Xuanfeng's expression was also full of reminiscence. The life in Qingshan City over the past few decades was a peaceful experience that he had not experienced for a long time.
This is the life Li Xuanfeng longs for, but it is also the life he cannot enjoy. He still has a lot of things to do and must keep moving forward!
Now there are only three old people left in the Li family clinic. Gao Sheng's face is shrouded in a strong sense of loneliness. He often sits in the yard and looks up at the stars, with a strong sense of reminiscence in his eyes.
Seeing the loneliness in Gao Sheng's expression, Gao Youwen and Lei Ling were filled with worry, but they didn't know how to advise him.
Gao Youwen had no choice but to look at Li Xuanfeng with a pleading look in his eyes, and it was obvious that he wanted Li Xuanfeng to help persuade Gao Sheng.
But Li Xuanfeng just shook his head and said softly: "Let him be alone and quiet."
He knew that Gao Sheng had almost lost the will to live. His heart was dead and no one could save him.
Gao Sheng now no longer needs Li Xuanfeng's advice. He has seen through life and death and no longer has too many thoughts. He is just often immersed in memories.
When people reach the end of their lives, they no longer have any extra thoughts and just like to miss their old friends.
