Chapter 346: Chapter 346 You Lost
The referee announced the start of prescribing, and the two began to prescribe dicine for the first patient.
This first patient was the middle-aged man.
His diagnosis was: inflammation of the liver, diseases caused by external factors, internal heat caused by ntal unease.
The prescriptions of Lin Dong and Gu Lingjun were almost identical, both being dicines for clearing heat and draining fire.
The fundantal ingredients of the dicines prescribed by both were consistent.
Both included “Drain-Fire Gypsum Rhizoma Anemarrhenae and Trichosanthes, Cassia Seeds Gardenia Powder, Sumr Bitter.”
However, each added a few different dicines to their prescriptions.
Gu Lingjun added tonifying dicines, treating the patient while also nurturing the primal energy to address the root cause, emphasizing a slow and thorough treatnt.
On the other hand, Lin Dong added a few more purging dicines on top of tonifying dicines. He could also treat the root cause, but the treatnt would be faster, although because the dicines were more potent, the reaction would be stronger, causing the patient so pain.
These were the prescriptions for the first patient, written by the two individuals.
Next was the second patient, who was the elder.
The prescriptions for this elder by the two were also similar.
Only the auxiliary dicines differed.
Only this ti, things seed sowhat reversed.
The dicine prescribed by Lin Dong emphasized a gradual progression with a slow dicinal effect and slow manifestation of results.
As for Gu Lingjun, he still emphasized treating the root cause, but this ti, the dicine with rapid effects was a bit too potent.
Next ca the third patient.
It was a child who was crying at the mont.
Gu Lingjun then buried his head and started writing the prescription.
But Lin Dong didn’t write anything. Instead, he approached the child and began to administer massage.
anwhile, he also educated the child’s mother.
“In the future, make sure to keep the child warm. Don’t let him eat cold foods. The reason for his sickness this ti is because he ate too much jelly, right? After you go back, rember to massage him like I am doing now, it only needs to be for seven or eight minutes each day. It can enhance his immunity…”
At this mont, sothing miraculous happened.
The child who had been crying hoarsely and had a runny nose stopped crying after Lin Dong’s massage, and his symptoms almost disappeared; he actually fell asleep in his mother’s arms.
While sleeping, he even revealed a sweet smile.
At this mont, Elder Wang nodded in approval and said to his disciple Gu Lingjun:
“Lingjun, you don’t need to write anymore. You’ve already lost!”
Hearing this from his master Elder Wang, Gu Lingjun trembled and ca to a halt.
He was puzzled and asked Elder Wang, “Master, he hasn’t even prescribed anything yet. How could you determine I’ve lost?”
“And for the previous two patients, our prescriptions were almost the sa. Moreover, all of mine treated the root cause. How co I’ve lost?”
Not only he but many outsiders as well appeared confused, not understanding how Gu Lingjun had lost.
Even many insiders were perplexed and also did not understand.
Only people like Elder Wang, dicine King, and Needle King could discern the superiority.
Elder Wang explained:
“Lingjun, you lost in adaptability!”
“This may have sothing to do with you always being secluded, studying dicine, and having contact with too few patients.”
“Us practitioners of Traditional Chinese dicine value adaptability. In this regard, Lin Dong did very well.”
“Let’s talk about the first patient. He is a middle-aged man, and from the consultation, it’s evident that he is the main breadwinner at ho. It’s not hard to tell that he urgently wants his illness to be cured quickly so he can return to work, and he hopes for the cheapest dical expenses possible.”
“Now look at the difference between your prescriptions and Lin Dong’s. Although yours can address the root and has almost no side effects on the patient’s body, the effect is too slow. Moreover, so of the auxiliary dicines you used are not cheap, especially the ginseng, which is too costly for him…”
“Now look at Lin Dong; when he prescribed the dicine, he took all these factors into account. So his prescription is potent, with quick effects, and although the patient will feel so pain while taking the dicine, as a middle-aged man, he can withstand it.”
“And his auxiliary dicines are much cheaper than what you prescribed.”
After Elder Wang finished his explanation, Gu Lingjun had an epiphany.
“So that’s how it is!”
Afterward, Elder Wang continued explaining.
“Regarding the second case, it was an elderly person, and his body could not tolerate such strong dicine as yours. Although your prescription is the most standard one in dical books for treating his type of illness, you did not consider his age.”
“While Lin Dong took this into account, hence he prescribed a dicine that, although slow in effect, would have a longer treatnt course.”
“As for the last child, there’s no need to say more.”
“Although he seed not to have written any prescription, he had already cured the child’s illness with massage and had communicated preventative asures to the mother.”
“That is the best dicine!”
After hearing all this, Gu Lingjun nodded and said:
“Indeed, children are also reluctant to take Chinese dicine. Moreover, Chinese dicine can have certain side effects on children with low immunity.”
With these thoughts, he turned to Lin Dong and said earnestly:
“Lin Dong, I’ve lost this dical competition! I am completely convinced of my defeat!”
Wow!!!
As soon as these words were spoken, there was first a silence over the crowd.
Then, a cheer erupted.
