Urban Invincible Medical Divine

Chapter 408: Chapter 283 Can’t Help It

Liu Wentian placed his wrist on the old man’s wrist and several minutes passed in this way. Impatience was evident on Albert’s face; he had to increase the intake of the Life Elixir for Elder Jiang today, and there really wasn’t any more time to waste on this ignorant young man!!

Finally, Liu Wentian lifted his fingers from the old man’s wrist, his eyes holding a hint of a different color as he looked at him.

“Liu Wentian, how is it?? Did you figure out what’s wrong with Elder Jiang’s body?? Can you cure him??” Elder Gu asked, unable to contain himself.

Albert frowned, disdainfully saying, “Elder Gu, you’re really too naive. How could he, so young and also being a practitioner of Chinese medicine, possibly cure Elder Jiang’s illness!!”

After speaking, he turned to Liu Wentian and said irritably, “You should stop wasting my precious treatment time, you’re just causing trouble for my treatment. If something really happens to Elder Jiang, can you take responsibility??”

“Treatment?? Are you referring to continuing the use of your so-called Life Potion??” Liu Wentian asked.

“Of course!!” Albert responded.

“Did you find that Elder Jiang’s body started to deteriorate again today, so you’re planning to increase the dosage??” Liu Wentian said, looking at Albert with a hint of mockery in his eyes.

Albert was infuriated by Liu Wentian’s gaze – how dare such an inexperienced youth show him such disrespect. Just as he was about to scold the other man, his body jolted, and he exclaimed, “How do you know that Elder Jiang’s condition started deteriorating today??”

He was shocked to his core, as this was something he had only just discerned from the various data in the report, and yet the other man had been able to see it just by taking a pulse??

The key point was, how did he know that Elder Jiang’s deterioration started today, not yesterday? Could it be he could not only detect deterioration but even pinpoint when it began, all based on a few fingers??

Those fingers must be truly miraculous!!

Could this be what Chinese medicine is all about?? It’s too incredible!!

Seeing Albert’s astonished expression, Elder Gu immediately realized Liu Wentian must be right, and said excitedly, “Liu Wentian, it seems you really have identified the problem with Elder Wang’s body. Can you cure it??”

Liu Wentian nodded with a smile and said, “Indeed, I have found it. Elder Gu, if I’m not mistaken, the prescription you gave Elder Jiang was a nourishing medicine to replenish energy and blood, correct??”

Eagerly nodding, Elder Gu responded, “That’s right, seeing how extremely weak Elder Jiang’s body was, I prescribed a nourishing medicinal formula to replenish his energy and blood while regulating his vital organs. Could it be I was wrong??”

Liu Wentian shook his head and said, “You weren’t wrong, Elder Jiang’s body is indeed extremely weak, your choice of a nourishing medicinal formula is correct.”

“Then why has there been no improvement in Elder Jiang’s condition after taking my medicine??” Elder Gu asked in confusion, a puzzle he too couldn’t fathom.

“Because Elder Jiang’s body, to put it metaphorically, is like a bucket full of holes at the bottom. No matter how much water you pour into it, it’s useless, because his body simply cannot absorb the medicinal strength of your herbal soup.” Liu Wentian explained slowly.

With a frown, Elder Gu appeared still somewhat puzzled and asked, “But Dr. Albert’s Life Elixir, I’ve heard a bit about it too, and its effect is supposed to be the same as my prescription, so why does his elixir have an effect??”

By this time, Albert had also recovered from his shock. Upon hearing this, he felt somewhat smug. Even if you could see Elder Jiang’s condition, in the end, you’d still have to use my Life Elixir to treat him!!

He boasted, “My Life Elixir is developed through special techniques, not only is it many times more effective than herbal medicine, but it can also be absorbed instantly by the mucous membrane of the stomach and intestines, there’s no fear of it not being absorbed.”

“Indeed, you are correct, your Life Elixir has been absorbed by Elder Jiang’s body.” Liu Wentian acknowledged with a nod.

Feeling even more pleased with himself after hearing this, Albert was then taken aback by Liu Wentian’s mocking tone, saying, “In the human body, substances that cannot be absorbed are automatically rejected, and your Life Elixir is essentially forcing things that Elder Jiang’s body rejects into it. He might have lived for roughly three months, but now, I’m afraid he only has about one month left.”

He looked at Albert with a playful smile and added, “To put it harshly, you are akin to murdering Elder Jiang!!”

“You!! Stop spouting nonsense!! How could I possibly murder Elder Jiang!! How could it be possible!!” Albert’s face immediately turned purple with panic.

At the same time, he felt as though he had fallen into an ice cellar, with a chilling sensation as if he was being targeted by numerous terrifying presences.

Drenched in sweat and panicking to the extreme, he knew the stakes were high given Elder Jiang’s significant status; if he were truly implicated in the murder of Elder Jiang, he was finished!!

“I’m not talking nonsense. In fact, your Life Elixir simply stimulates the body’s latent potential, and Elder Jiang’s body is already on its last legs. What potential is left for you to stimulate?? Your Life Elixir simply caused him to shine brightly one last time. In Huaxia, we have a saying: ‘too much is as bad as not enough.’ Forcing Elder Jiang’s body to absorb those herbal essences will only have the opposite effect, eroding his vitality and accelerating his demise!!” Liu Wentian shook his head as he spoke.

At this moment, Albert was a bit stupefied with fear. In fact, when he had checked the data on Elder Jiang’s condition that day, he realized something was off. If his Life Elixir was effective, then Elder Wang’s bodily functions wouldn’t have deteriorated further. If it wasn’t having an effect, then increasing the dosage would be futile!!
