Could a medicine prescribed by the Divine Doctor be wrong?
Moreover, Mo Hudie’s condition has shown signs of improvement after taking the medicine.
Could it be, as Ni Yang said, a treatment of the symptoms but not the cause?
One is the famous Divine Doctor of Jiangnan.
The other is the Divine Doctor who cured Yang Guobao.
For a moment, Elder Lady Mo was unsure about whom to trust.
Seeing Elder Lady Mo’s uncertainty, Ni Yang continued, “I assume the Divine Doctor of Jiangnan has never met Xiaodie in person, right?”
Old Lady Mo nodded and said, “Although the Divine Doctor of Jiangnan has never met Xiaodie in person, he is aware of her symptoms and medical history.”
Ni Yang responded, “Even Confucius, a sage, made mistakes. Let alone the Divine Doctor of Jiangnan who has never met Xiaodie. Misdiagnoses are normal.”
Hearing this, Elder Lady Mo found herself contemplating deeply.
Did the Divine Doctor of Jiangnan actually misdiagnose?
Upon hearing this, Zheng Xianjing almost laughed out loud. How shameless of Ni Yang!
Misdiagnosis?
How could the Divine Doctor of Jiangnan possibly misdiagnose?
And Ni Yang, a novice village doctor, had the audacity to accuse the Divine Doctor of misdiagnosis?
Absurd!
Seeing Elder Lady Mo falling for Ni Yang’s words, Zheng Xianjing chuckled and said, “As far as I know, Traditional Chinese Medicine is divided into internal medicine, surgery, neurology, and dermatology. Considering the Divine Doctor of Jiangnan’s reputation in treating complex cases, I don’t think he could have misdiagnosed. After all, he has been practicing medicine for decades and is already sixty, with no known instances of misdiagnosis.”
“Furthermore, the illness Guobao had is epilepsy; a condition he was born with. It is entirely different from Xiaodie’s illness. Each doctor has their own specialty. Little Doctor, I think it’s too hasty for you to claim that the Divine Doctor of Jiangnan misdiagnosed, considering Xiaodie’s wellbeing.”
Zheng Xianjing spoke logically, persuading Elder Lady Mo to nod her agreement.
Upon reflection, the Divine Doctor of Jiangnan seemed to be the more reliable choice.
The Divine Doctor of Jiangnan has cured many people, while Ni Yang has only cured Yang Guobao.
Comparing their experience, Ni Yang is far less qualified.
Wang Meifeng wanted to say something but was stopped by Zhou Suhua.
After all, life was at stake and they felt reluctant to interrupt.
If Mo Hudie were to lose her life under Ni Yang’s treatment, Ni Yang would be held responsible for her death. They invited Ni Yang to help treat the illness, not to create hostility.
As to whether they believe in Ni Yang, it all depends on Elder Lady Mo. If anything were to happen, she wouldn’t be able to blame anyone else.
After some thought, Elder Lady Mo asked, “So Little Doctor, what is your treatment plan? And what is Xiaodie suffering from?”
Ni Yang responded, “Xiaodie is presently suffering from severe malnutrition and blood-dryness caused by internal warmth diseases. That’s why she has been bedridden.”
He paused before continuing, “My plan is to immediately open all the doors and windows in this room to let the air circulate. Then, Xiaodie needs to eat more nutritious foods especially fish and meat to replenish her energy. Finally, I will prescribe a formula and use acupuncture treatment. Within six months, Xiaodie will be cured.”
Six months are just a conservative estimate.
In fact, with Ni Yang’s skill, it only takes two to three months for a full recovery.
Elder Lady Mo frowned slightly, “But the Divine Doctor of Jiangnan expressly urged against exposing Xiaodie to sunlight or wind, and she is not allowed to eat oily and spicy foods. Little Doctor, are you sure your treatment will work?”
This was a direct contradiction to the Divine Doctor of Jiangnan’s orders!
Ni Yang explained, “Continuously closing doors and windows reduces air circulation, which can lead to indoor bacterial infection and weaken the body’s immune system, especially in the case of someone like Xiaodie who has been bedridden for a long time. As for diet, Xiaodie’s illness doesn’t restrict her food intake. Constant dietary restrictions wouldn’t alleviate her condition, but rather lead to malnutrition, worsening her illness.”
Ni Yang’s argument made sense, leaving Elder Lady Mo speechless.
Zheng Xianjing sneered at him under her lowered eyes. Did this Ni Yang actually consider himself a Divine Doctor?
He had the audacity to refute the Divine Doctor of Jiangnan!
How shameless!
Zheng Xianjing looked at Ni Yang and mockingly asked, “So you’re saying that Xiaodie must receive acupuncture?”
“Yes,” Ni Yang nodded, “There’s no other way.”
Zheng Xianjing continued, “But I heard that only seasoned practitioners of Traditional Chinese Medicine can perform acupuncture. After all, if a single acupoint is wrong, the consequences could range from paralysis to life- threatening.”
