Chapter 206 - 206: 206 Hou Wan Dan Candy

“You’ve been eating poisonous wild mountain mushrooms for decades. The toxins accumulated in your body have reached a very dangerous amount.”

“Are you determined to completely quit it?”

Upon hearing this, Elder Zhao, who was lying on the bed, had a conflicted expression on his face.

“Dr. Chen, I can try, but 1 can’t guarantee it.”

“Father, you really can’t eat anymore.”

“I’m begging you, alright?” Zhao Jinquan said with tears streaming down his face.

“I can get you any delicacies you want, but you really can’t eat wild mushrooms anymore.”

“Son, I know you’re a filial child, and 1 don’t want to trouble you.”

“But… but I really can’t control myself.”

Elder Zhao closed his eyes in pain.

When he was young, his family’s conditions were very difficult.

Every year, the grain produced in the fields was only enough for his family for nine months.

During the few months of food shortage, the family would eat other things.

The one that he ate the most was wild mushrooms.

Later, their financial conditions became better day by day, yet Elder Zhao’s dining table was always full of wild mushrooms.

If he didn’t eat them, he would feel that something was missing.

He ate wild mushrooms for more than 40 years.

Now, he was chronically addicted.

This time, Elder Zhao brought a few sacks of wild mushrooms with him when he moved out of the city with his son.

As for whether the wild mushroom was poisonous or not, he didn’t care at all.

According to their hometown customs, you could only get poisoned eating wild mushrooms if they were not cooked thoroughly.

Experienced locals would not be poisoned.

“Son, now that you’ve grown up and have a decent job, 1 have nothing to regret.”

“Just let me go.”

Elder Zhao didn’t want to burden his son, but he didn’t have the confidence to quit his decades-long appetite.

He also understood Chen Yu’s words.

Chen Yu could help him this time but might not be able to help him the next time.

The most important thing was whether he could get rid of his habit of eating wild mushrooms.

If he couldn’t quit and didn’t want to drag it out, he might as well end it all.

His son had grown up and had a decent job with a good income.

Even if he were to leave now and go to the underworld, he could still proudly face his deceased wife and the ancestors of the Zhao family.

“Dr. Chen, please help us think of a way. 1 can’t… I can’t watch my father leave me.”

Zhao Jinquan was about to kneel down as he begged.

Chen Yu stretched out his hand to hold him back. “From a psychological point of view, your father has a classic case of mental addiction.”

“What is mental addiction?”

Zhao Jinquan asked.

“Mental addiction refers to a long-term mental dependence on something.”

Chen Yu explained coolly.

“Your father likes to eat poisonous wild mushrooms, so you should have eaten them before, right?”

“A few times.”

Zhao Jinquan nodded.

“Could it be that after eating wild mushrooms for a period of time, you will become heavily addicted to them?”

“That’s not the case.”

“Wild mountain mushrooms won’t cause physical addiction.” Chen Yu waved his hand and said, “Your father’s mental addiction is because he ate wild mountain mushrooms for decades.”

“When he was young, he ate wild mushrooms as a staple food. Later on, it became an indispensable delicacy for three meals a day.”

“This is mental addiction.”

“Eating wild mountain mushrooms has become a part of his life, and it’s hard to give up.”

Chen Yu explained to Zhao Jinquan that wild mushrooms weren’t like cigarettes or alcohol. They wouldn’t cause physical addiction.

However, mental addiction was more troublesome than physical addiction.

“Dr. Chen, I don’t quite understand what you mean. Please tell me, what should I do?”

“As long as you can cure my father and make him quit this bad habit, I can promise you anything.”

“As a doctor, as long as there is a glimmer of hope for the patient to be cured, I will not give up.”

Chen Yu consoled him with a smile.

“I have a drug in my psychological treatment room that is suitable for your father’s current mental addiction.”

“If it’s convenient, come with me.”

“This will first get rid of his mental addiction, and then we will talk about treating his body.”

“Of course, I’m free! Let’s go now!”

Zhao Jinquan hurriedly replied.

“Wait a moment, let me finish.”

“My medicine is different from ordinary medicine,” Chen Yu said seriously. “There are many taboos involved.”

After saying so, Chen Yu extended three fingers.

“First, you can’t take any other medicine when taking this medicine in case the medicinal properties counteract each other.”

“Second, the food you serve him should be light and bland. He cannot eat fish or meat, and you can’t let your father drink any more mushroom soup. Once you break this rule, all your previous efforts will be in vain.”

Zhao Jinquan nodded repeatedly.

He remembered Chen Yu’s words in his heart.

“As for the third rule,” Chen Yu said, “he needs to take this medicine three times a day for 21 consecutive days. He can’t stop taking it, even once.”

“If you interrupt it once, all our previous efforts will be wasted.”

“Understood. Let’s go get the medicine now.”

Zhao Jinquan quickly said.

“While taking the medicine, your father may have all kinds of struggles, curses, or pleas. In short, you can’t be soft-hearted. Your father has no ability to resist mental addiction, so he needs you to help him.”

After hearing Chen Yu’s warning, Zhao Jinquan guaranteed, “I’ll call my boss tomorrow and ask for a month’s leave. I’ll stay at home to take care of my father, and I definitely won’t ruin the medication process.”

“I won’t let my father come into contact with any wild mushrooms.”

“Doctors can treat illnesses,” Chen Yu warned. “As for whether or not the patient can survive, the efforts of the patient’s family members are also very important.”

“Remember the three taboos I mentioned just now. Don’t break any of them.”

Then, Zhao Jinquan called his servants and ordered them to stay there to look after his father.

Before he returned, the servants were not allowed to go anywhere.

In the kitchen storage room, there were a few sacks of wild mushrooms that his father had brought from his hometown.

Zhao Jinquan planned to destroy them when he came back.

More than an hour later, the two cars stopped at the entrance of the psychological treatment room.

Chen Yu strode inside.

When he came out again, he had a bottle of candy in his hand.

Seeing the item in Chen Yu’s hand, Zhao Jinquan’s head was filled with confusion.

“Dr. Chen, did you take the wrong one? Isn’t this Hou Wan Dan candy?”

“No, these are the detoxification pills.”

“Perhaps, in your eyes, this is just a bottle of candy,” Chen Yu said unhurriedly.

“But, it’s a medicine used to detoxify and treat illnesses.”

“Candies can detoxify and cure illnesses?”

Zhao Jinquan took the Hou Wan Dan candy from Chen Yu’s hands.

He looked at it from all directions.

No matter how he looked at it, it was just a bottle of candy.

On the front were the words Hou Wan Dan candy, and beside it was a cartoon picture of the Monkey King.

There was a line of small words below.

Licorice and orange peel flavors

The shelf life was two months away..
