I Can Talk to the Internal Organs-Chapter 56 - 49: 8-Part Vajra Skill [2-in-1]_3

"Okay, okay, I’ll shut up." For the happiness of his future girlfriend, Tian Xuelin felt he could endure this bit of hardship.

So, in the following time, Tian Xuelin practiced the Eight Vajra Skills with Lu Jiu over and over again.

Of course, his movements were still awkward.

Soon, an hour passed, and Tian Xuelin finally managed to clumsily master the outer part of the Eight Vajra Skills. As for the Longevity Skill part of the inner skills, Lu Jiu didn’t plan to teach him now, and even if he did, Tian Xuelin might not remember it.

After finishing the practice, Tian Xuelin was drenched in sweat, his clothes soaked.

He wanted to go upstairs to take a shower, but Lu Jiu firmly refused. He only let him rest for a while to wipe off the sweat, then told him to go home for a shower.

This was because after sweating heavily, the pores open. If you shower at this time, the cold can enter the body. Exercising all day would not only fail to strengthen the body but also give illness a chance to take hold.

This is especially true in the autumn and winter seasons, where showering immediately after sweating is most harmful to the body.

The Inner Canon of the Yellow Emperor states that if one doesn’t consolidate and store in autumn and winter, they will fall ill with warmth-related sickness in spring. 𝒇𝒓𝒆𝒆𝙬𝒆𝒃𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝙡.𝒄𝓸𝒎

After having a simple breakfast, one of them went home, while the other hugged a cat and went to the medical clinic.

Lu Mountain opened the medical clinic’s door as usual. His daily routine now consisted of opening the door, pruning branches, watering flowers, brewing tea, and possibly playing chess with three or five friends in the afternoon, living quite comfortably.

"Xiao Lu, Xiao Lu, come quickly and see my grandson..."

As soon as Lu Jiu sat down, someone rushed in from outside, holding a crying child in his arms, followed by a young couple.

Upon a closer look, Lu Jiu recognized him as Xia Jun, who had visited the hospital earlier, holding his grandson Xia Xing.

However, the child’s complexion seemed a bit off.

"Uncle Xia, what’s the matter?" Lu Jiu asked.

Xia Jun frowned, "Sigh, since going back the last time, he hasn’t gotten better. He still has diarrhea and coughs, and it’s getting worse. Just yesterday, he cried all night, and his voice became hoarse. We don’t know what was wrong, so we went to the hospital at dawn to check him, got two injections, but it was no use. Xiao Lu, didn’t you say it wasn’t serious?"

Lu Jiu’s expression turned serious, "Did you follow what I said?"

Xia Jun hesitated, "Well, we haven’t been feeding him too much..."

Lu Jiu asked, "Is he still drinking milk? Still taking calcium tablets?"

Xia Jun didn’t respond, and the young couple behind him immediately stepped forward, "What’s this got to do with milk and calcium tablets?"

Lu Jiu said, "Of course it matters. The child is suffering from heart and kidney imbalance due to spleen deficiency and dampness. Normally, a child’s Yang Qi is sufficient; you just need to reduce nutritional intake and get more physical activity. The issue of spleen deficiency is easy to resolve on its own, and the accumulated cold and dampness in the body will gradually dissipate. The conditions of coughing and diarrhea would improve in two to three days. Milk itself is a cold food. No matter how nutritious it is, given the child’s current physical condition, it will only make things worse, and as for calcium tablets, why do you insist on giving them to him? Is he not tall enough?"

The reason Lu Jiu disliked calcium tablets was that once they entered the body, they were difficult to expel.

Why does traditional Chinese medicine emphasize eating natural foods? Because natural foods not only provide nutrition but also water, fiber, and other elements.

When these foods enter the body, the parts that the body discards can help the five viscera and six bowels with excretion.

Take oranges, for example. After eating the pulp, we can absorb its vitamins and water, and the remaining fiber actively assists the large intestine in expelling waste.

Calcium tablets, though?

After entering the body and being broken down, if the body can’t absorb them, they can’t even be expelled.

It’s not viable to only supplement without excretion, right?

Substance follows the law of conservation; if it can’t exit, it can only remain in the body, but that doesn’t mean it will stay in one place waiting for the body to absorb it. Things left for long spoil!

It has a two-year shelf life outside, but that doesn’t mean it has a two-year shelf life once decomposed inside the body!

"I’ve never heard of anyone drinking milk and becoming worse off. My child isn’t lactose intolerant!"

Confronted with Lu Jiu’s statements, Xia Xing’s mother questioned him.
