Chapter 400: Chapter 280 What’s Going On_2
“Nonsense!!”
Xie Zhengren’s face darkened as he directly rebuked, “This patient’s face is somewhat flushed, the pulse is hot, and he himself says he has a headache, swollen gums, and a sore throat among other issues. These are classic signs of excess heat, where does the ‘Yin fullness and Yang deficiency’ come in? It’s nothing but gibberish!!”
Everyone, convinced by Xie Zhengren’s explanation, looked at Liu Wentian with disdain, thinking he was purely spouting nonsense, vying for attention, and quite frankly, being idiotic!!
Xie Wenlong turned to Sheng Qianmei with a chuckle, “Miss Sheng, see, I told you he is a fraud. He can’t even get a simple case of excess heat right!! And he dares to claim he has any medical skill, it’s laughable!!”
Sheng Qianmei looked at Xie Wenlong with some displeasure, but actually, she was also somewhat puzzled and could not understand how Wentian could have gotten a simple case of excess heat wrong.
Liu Wentian, hearing Xie Zhengren’s scolding, was also displeased and frowned, “What appears to be signs of excess heat on the surface is, in reality, the result of cold damage to the Jueyin Meridian Channel causing Yang deficiency and Yin fullness. The right treatment must involve strong Yang medicine to drive out the cold, you got it wrong from the start!!”
Without waiting for a response, he continued to expound, “His facial flush and the hot pulse are exactly the false signs caused by the cold damaging the Jueyin Meridian Channel. Furthermore, although his skin is normal, his lips are somewhat cracked. If I’m not mistaken, he must be constantly thirsty, a symptom of excess ‘True Fire’ within the Jueyin. Moreover, his bad breath and the swelling and pain in his gums and throat are not due to excess heat, but oral inflammation!!”
The middle-aged man, upon hearing this, changed his expression, then couldn’t help but breath out and sniff, and then exclaimed,
“Ah!! I really do have bad breath, strange, I didn’t before!! And, I have been feeling thirsty recently, always thirsty even if I drink so much my belly bloats, I’ve seen the Traditional Chinese Medicine department at the hospital, but to no avail, ah!! I remember now, that doctor was also prescribing me cooling medicine to reduce excess heat, looking at it now, could it be that I’m really not suffering from excess heat??”
The middle-aged man’s exclamation immediately brought silence to the room, and everyone stared dumbfounded at Liu Wentian.
Everyone present was from the community of Chinese medicine, and upon reflection, they found no fault in Wentian’s logic, and now with the patient’s confirmation, the conclusion was obvious!!
Xie Zhengren, a well-known name in Chinese medicine for a long time, really did misdiagnose a minor illness, mistaking ‘False Fire’ for ‘True Fire’!!
While everyone was still astonished, Liu Wentian continued, “Moreover, the patient has severe dark circles under his eyes, which are signs of liver damage,” ‘Suwen: Pain Theory’ states, ‘Cold Qi finds its place in the Jueyin Meridian Channel, for it connects to the liver through the Yin organs.’ This is a typical manifestation of harm to the Jueyin Meridian Channel!! Lastly, it’s clear that the air conditioning is on and the temperature isn’t high, yet the patient’s face still has a layer of fine sweat. This too is an indication of harm to the Jueyin Meridian Channel, as ‘Suwen: Vein Differentiation Theory’ states, ‘When Jueyin arrives, it’s the end of Jueyin treatment, True deficiency causes heart pain, the lingering Jue Qi turns thin, resulting in purple sweat!!’
After Liu Wentian finished, the room fell silent, and those who had mocked him for his youth and lack of extensive study in medical texts, felt as though their faces were slapped sharply!!
If Wentian hadn’t read many medical texts, how could he so casually reference their content? Clearly, he not only read them but also thoroughly digested their content!!
At the same time, they were also astonished by Wentian’s observational skills.
Symptoms like mild bad breath, sweating, normal-looking skin but with cracked lips are easily overlooked, yet Wentian noticed them all, diagnosing all the symptoms without even taking the pulse, truly astounding!!
Such observational skills are frightening!!
At this point, the most vibrant face belonged to Xie Zhengren, his face changing colors like a dye workshop – now blue, now red, now purple. As a prominent figure in the local Chinese medicine community, to have misread such a case and to have his reputation challenged by a young man was mortifying, making him wish he could sink into a crack in the ground!!
But the facts were in front of him, the other’s arguments were logical and substantiated, and even the patient had spoken up in agreement; he had no choice but to concede!!
After prescribing a medicine formula for the middle-aged man, Liu Wentian looked at Xie Zhengren with a smile, “So, Mr. Xie, do you want to review the prescription to see if it passes your standards??”
“Heh, that’s not necessary. Since you’re the one who diagnosed the condition, if you think it’s appropriate, then it’s fine.”
Xie Zhengren forced a couple of laughs, no longer wanting to review anything; that exposition showed that the other party indeed had some skill, and having understood the illness so clearly, how could he not be capable of prescribing the right medicine?
The middle-aged man accepted the prescription with immense gratitude, “Thank you, thank you so much, Divine Doctor!! I truly can’t thank you enough!!”
The middle-aged man was genuinely grateful to Liu Wentian; Wentian had said if he continued taking cooling medicine for heat reduction, his minor ailment might develop into a serious illness, he couldn’t imagine how much more he would have to endure!!
“Don’t mention it.”
Liu Wentian smiled and returned to his seat below the stage, sitting back down in his spot. Sheng Qianmei was gazing at him with wide eyes full of wonder, admiration, and infatuation.
Wentian laughed, “What’s wrong?? Are you shocked by me too?? You know I’m a divine doctor!”
Sheng Qianmei nodded with a light laugh, “I know you’re a divine doctor, but I still feel a little shocked. You were so impressive just now, everyone was scared by you.”
“Well, as a divine doctor, if I don’t take action, everything is already—once I take action, others will be blown away.” Liu Wentian said cheekily, touching his nose. Indeed, Sheng Qianmei looked particularly attractive when she laughed; he couldn’t help but tease her.
