Chapter 348 - 314: Surpassing the National Master of Chinese Medicine!?
As time passed, the morning conference came to an end.
After lunch, there was still half a session left in the afternoon.
It seemed to be an intangible cultural heritage exhibition, with numerous traditional Chinese medicine heritage therapies on display in the exhibition hall, presumably for people to visit.
After the meeting, Huang Fusheng and Shen Congwei walked together and called Lu Jiu over to have lunch with them in the cafeteria.
However, many people began to gather around the three, constantly inquiring about details of the Lu Jiu TCM Hospital.
At the same time, someone from the participant list discovered that a local traditional Chinese medicine practitioner from Jianghan had accepted the conference invitation, and his name was Lu Jiu.
The name was similar to the hospital’s, and it was from the same place, so without a doubt, Lu Jiu should be the nominal head of this hospital.
For a moment, everyone speculated about Lu Jiu’s identity.
But he was too young.
He didn’t even look thirty years old.
Such a young person as the hospital director, especially of a hospital jointly invested by Huang Fusheng and Shen Congwei, seemed unbelievable to many people.
According to Huang Fusheng’s introduction, the hospital’s institutional setup was very bold, even completely overturning all the existing hospital systems.
There was no doubt this was a new hospital built by people like Huang Fusheng to expand the influence of Chinese medicine in pilot cities.
Handing such an important hospital over to a child as director.
Who would believe that if spread around!?
"Fusheng."
Among the crowd, someone called out Huang Fusheng’s name.
When everyone was wondering who dared to say his name directly, an old man in a gray jacket with white hair appeared, smiling at them.
"Elder Wei!"
Wei Zhengxian!
A well-known fortune-teller of the Traditional Chinese Medicine Association!
His achievements in the Five Elements and Six Qi are also extremely impressive.
It is said that at the onset of the epidemic, a leader sought his help, asking how to curb the epidemic in Hidden Dragon City.
Later, it was unknown what was said, but then the state started building two makeshift hospitals in Hidden Dragon City, with careful consideration of their names and geographic locations.
One was named Huoshen Mountain, the other Thunder God Mountain.
Many people speculated that these names were definitely not randomly given.
Their intent was likely quite deliberate.
However, this involves a lot of knowledge about Yin Yang Five Elements and hexagrams from The Book of Changes.
The authorities never explain, so the public can only speculate wildly.
If speculating from the hexagrams, then whether it is the Fire Thunder Devouring hexagram or Thunder Fire Abundance hexagram, their meanings are very conducive to curbing epidemics.
Evidently, The Book of Changes is not viewed as superstition by the government; it is considered during significant events.
"Elder Wei, why didn’t we see you this morning?" Huang Fusheng approached enthusiastically.
Wei Zhengxian laughed, "I was in the clinic for two hours, so I arrived a little late."
Huang Fusheng grabbed Wei Zhengxian, "Let’s go, let’s eat first, and chat over the meal. It’s been a long time since we caught up."
Wei Zhengxian nodded, suddenly turned to Lu Jiu, "Is this the child you mentioned to me?"
Huang Fusheng laughed, "Exactly, I brought him here to get acquainted with you all. This kid has quite a bit of talent; it won’t be long before he surpasses even me."
Ah?
Hearing such high praise from Huang Fusheng about Lu Jiu, everyone around was extremely surprised.
Who is Huang Fusheng?
A National Master of Chinese Medicine!
How many National Masters of Chinese Medicine are there nationwide?
Wei Zhengxian laughed, "So young and knows Mountain Burning Fire and Piercing Cold, plus understands The Book of Changes, surpassing you is indeed not difficult."
The place in traditional Chinese medicine where one can see the limit the most is whether they understand The Book of Changes.
If you don’t understand The Book of Changes, you might be stuck at the level of traditional Chinese medicine your whole life, but if you do, you have a chance to step into the Upper Medical Realm.
In the Upper Medical Realm, you can move from treating diseases to treating people.
At that point, any method will be based on adjusting the human body’s state, considering the patient’s current time, space, location, severity of the disease, emotional fluctuations, and so on, to conduct more detailed personalized therapy.
Completely free from the constraints of disease!
"Elder Wei, besides Mountain Burning Fire and Piercing Cold, he also knows Navel Needle, and currently has several cancer patients in his hands." Huang Fusheng laughed.
What!?
Upon hearing this, everyone’s gaze towards Lu Jiu completely changed.
No wonder!
No wonder Huang Fusheng’s hospital is named after him.
Not even thirty years old, not only mastering top-level Supplement and Drainage Acupuncture Technique, but also knowing Navel Needle, something only those who understand Yijing Bagua can learn; just his acupuncture skills can already rival many old TCM doctors.
It turns out, Huang Fusheng even says he can treat cancer!
This... is too outrageous!
Especially for some young doctors, it all feels somewhat unreal.
At the same age, how can there be such a big gap?
Even if you started learning Chinese medicine from elementary school, it wouldn’t be this fierce, right?
Could it be, talent really can create such a large gap between people?
"Oh? Even knows Navel Needle?" Wei Zhengxian looked at Lu Jiu with some surprise.
He also knows this technique, it’s not hard.
But to master it and achieve therapeutic effects.
Without understanding Yijing Bagua, it certainly wouldn’t work.
Wei Zhengxian didn’t expect that Lu Jiu’s understanding of The Book of Changes as mentioned by Huang Fusheng was of such a kind.
It seems Lu Jiu’s level is even higher than he imagined!
Lu Jiu smiled, "Not very skillful yet."
Then he recalled what Huang Fusheng had instructed him before coming.
To be as high-profile as possible.
He then added, "Moreover, I’ve yet to use this acupuncture to manage cancer temporarily."
Goodness.
He opened his mouth, saying he can’t treat cancer!
Do you think cancer is a cold?
An entry-level disease?
Hearing this, Wei Zhengxian also laughed with interest, "Then what are your insights in treating cancer at present?"
Lu Jiu said, "Currently, the outcome for two patients is pretty positive. One is in late-stage breast cancer that has metastasized to lung cancer, but the cancer cells have ceased to spread, and the patient has essentially returned to normal life, with the impact of cancer gradually diminishing. The other patient, sentenced to death by the hospital with late-stage lung cancer, after half a year of treatment, recently underwent a check-up, showing signs of the lung tumor shrinking."
What!?
Shrinking the tumor of a late-stage lung cancer patient in just half a year?
Although many here have seen some old TCM doctors treat cancer.
But generally, adjusting the patient to return to normal life within half a year is already the limit.
If wanting to shrink the tumor, then at least a long-term treatment of two to three years is required.
Seeing someone as fast as Lu Jiu’s, they hardly have ever witnessed it.
So, when hearing Lu Jiu’s words, they instinctively felt he was boasting.
No way, if Lu Jiu were in his seventies or eighties now, no one would question his words.
For a Chinese medicine practitioner, the younger you are, the less reliable.
Even within the circle of Chinese medicine, it’s no exception.
Wei Zhengxian’s eyes showed a brief pause but quickly recovered, "Hehehe, interesting."
