Generally speaking, Western dicine diagnoses diseases by looking at blood test and examination results.
But traditional Chinese dicine relies on observation, listening, questioning, and pulse-taking without any examination thods, making accurate diagnosis very challenging. This is why Chinese dicine is easy to learn but hard to master.
Ordinary people can diagnose so illnesses by reading a few Chinese dicine books, but it’s usually limited to so common diseases, and whether the prescribed dicine is accurate or not is hard to say.
However, mastering it is extrely difficult.
Without discussing other aspects, just pulse-taking requires years of clinical practice, and even so, it still doesn’t guarantee accuracy every ti.
Traditional Chinese dicine diagnosis emphasizes observation, listening, questioning, and pulse-taking rather than just pulse-taking alone.
Pulse-taking can determine so conditions, but for precise diagnosis, it’s incredibly difficult.
Maybe in ancient tis, there were Chinese doctors who could do it, but now, it’s almost impossible.
In the field of Chinese dicine, those who are skilled are indeed skilled, and those who aren’t are indeed below par, even to the point where calling them quacks wouldn’t be an exaggeration.
Lu Xuan’s dical skills are known to him; among the Chinese doctors he has seen, few surpass Lu Xuan in this regard.
But to say that Lu Xuan could diagnose Liu Shao with diabetes by rely taking his pulse is sowhat astounding.
"Are you sure?" Wang Youqing couldn’t help but ask.
Liu Shao smiled wryly, "Dr. Wang, do you think I would have any reason to lie to you about this?"
"I swear on my reputation, I absolutely did not lie about this." Liu Shao swore.
"Hiss~"
Just after Liu Shao finished speaking, the sound of soone sucking in cold air ca through the phone.
Wang Youqing, who was holding the phone, took a deep breath and swallowed hard, a look of astonishnt flashing in his eyes.
Slightly squinting, Wang Youqing slowly exhaled and said, sowhat bemusedly, "No wonder when I talked to Dr. Lu about this, his tone was a bit off. I didn’t expect that guy, without saying a word, has already reached such heights in the field of Chinese dicine."
After ending the call with Liu Shao, Wang Youqing hurriedly called Lu Xuan back and, as soon as the call connected, said with feigned annoyance, "Lu, you’re too sneaky, keeping sothing like this from ."
Hearing this, Lu Xuan looked helpless and then said with a wry smile, "I was afraid you wouldn’t believe if I told you."
Wang Youqing found himself at a loss for words.
After hanging up the phone, Lu Xuan had almost finished his breakfast. Rembering that Ji Xiuwen was supposed to co to the city to rent an apartnt today, he called Ji Xiuwen.
"Xuan, what’s up?"
Ji Xiuwen’s laughter rang in his ear.
"Weren’t you saying you’d co to the city to rent an apartnt this weekend? I thought you might need so free labor, so send the location, and I’ll co help you tidy up. It’ll be much faster than you doing it alone," Lu Xuan said with a smile.
"You’re too late. My parents are impatient and ca with to the city last night to rent a place. They even tidied up overnight, and now they’re already cooking here," Ji Xiuwen explained.
"Uncle and Auntie ca too?"
Lu Xuan was taken aback and then said, "Let’s have lunch together? Where did you rent the place? I’ll make a reservation."
"No need, once I settle in, I’ll treat you instead. Besides, my parents have to go back soon for so matters."
"I see, alright then!"
Lu Xuan didn’t insist, and the two agreed to et next ti before hanging up.
Even though Ji Xiuwen had just moved in yesterday, he likely still had a lot to handle.
After finishing breakfast, Lu Xuan strolled around the neighborhood before returning to his apartnt to continue his studies.
Now, for him, clinical practice wasn’t much of an issue, but systematic learning was still necessary.
Although his ti at school involved so systematic learning, there was a lot of knowledge that was not covered. After all, there’s only so much ti, and Chinese dicine is vast and deep, hoping to master all knowledge points in just a few years is unrealistic.
Moreover, learning without any practice often relies on rote morization, with few people able to adapt and apply it flexibly.
Now that he has the opportunity for clinical practice, he needs to deeply study the knowledge he hadn’t learned before.
...
Night falls.
The flashing neon lights illuminate the dark night into a myriad of colors.
A food street near the Health Center.
At night, the originally empty restaurants are now packed, with almost every establishnt filled with patrons.
Old Li’s small vegetable garden.
Wang Youqing arrived at the restaurant early, bringing drinks to a private room and then went down to order over a dozen dishes, a mix of at and vegetables, along with five or six appetizers to accompany the drinks.
After sending the location and private room number to the group chat, Wang Youqing played on his phone for a while until a group of people ca in together. Seeing Wang Youqing playing idly on his phone, hearty laughter broke out:
"Old Wang, you sly old fellow, being so proactive, what’s up, did you learn sothing new and feel like you’re more skillful now?"
Even without seeing the person, just from the voice, Wang Youqing knew it was Wu Liguo’s booming voice. He imdiately looked up and said, feigning annoyance, "You’re no better, you’re always the one who talks the most in the group."
Among the drinkers at the Ninth Hospital, Wu Liguo may not be the best, but he’s definitely the most brazen.
Whenever Wang Youqing set up a drinking session in the group, Wu Liguo was always the first to jump in.
The two have known each other for a long ti, and neither minded the teasing. Wu Liguo nonchalantly sat down to the left of Wang Youqing, placing a hand on his shoulder and smiling as he looked at Xiao Boheng:
