Chapter 573 Student Zi Is Still Young. You Can Teach Her Well and There’s No Need for Corporal Punishment, Right?
When the virtual screen reflected the illness, the reason she had the illness, and what reactions she would usually suffer from, the group of spectators who were already surprised were even more shocked.
Zi Yi removed the silver needle from the middle-aged woman.
After the needle was removed, she cried out in surprise. “Ah! The reason and reactions are all correct!”
Everyone started to look at Zi Yi in a whole new different light.
Zi Yi stopped the virtual screen and turned to look at Elder Tang.
However, she did not expect to receive a flick on her forehead.
Zi Yi looked at Elder Tang with grievance. “Teacher, why did you hit me?” Elder Tang glared at her. “Chinese Medicine focuses on seeing, hearing, and asking. Who told you to use these technologies?”
This girl was so smart that no one could compare, but she was lazy.
The previous time he had asked her to train her needle skills and right now, she had been asked to examine the patients.
If not for the fact that he could not bear to hit her, he even wished to bring out his ruler or cane.
Zi Yi blinked her eyes and said, “We aren’t in the ancient times now and many high-tech detectors can check even more precisely than a human. Since there are such great tools, why not use them?”
Elder Tang had the posture as if he were ready to hit her again.
Zi Yi hastily covered her forehead and took a few steps back.
The others were all surprised at the scene this student and teacher were showing.
Elder Tang glared at Zi Yi and asked, “Traditional Chinese Medicine is all about cultural inheritance. Since you are studying Chinese Medicine, the rules your ancestors have pa.s.sed down cannot be changed. Moreover… if you didn’t bring these high-tech detectors with you, then wouldn’t you just be watching the patients die?” “How is that possible?!”
“Then don’t use these technologies and examine a new patient.”
Elder Tang randomly pointed at an individual. It was a middle-aged man wearing a cotton-padded jacket. There was an abnormal blush on his cheeks and yet, his body was slightly trembling as if he were cold.
“You’re only to ask him questions, or else…” Elder Tang looked around and lastly, his line of sight fell on the Deputy Director.
“Little He, go and get me a feather duster.”
“This…” The Deputy Director glanced at the patient who was making his way towards Zi Yi as if suffering from injustice. Emotions of sympathy surged forth. “Elder Tang, Student Zi is still young. You should tell her well, but I don’t think there’s a need for corporal punishment, right?”
Elder Tang’s eyes glared in his direction and he said without the slightest hesitation, “You can go ahead if you would like to receive the corporal punishment on her behalf.”
His words caused the crowd to look at the Deputy Director.
In the end, his expression stiffened and he said, “Alright, I’ll get it for you right away.”
Having said that, the Deputy Director left whilst under the eyes of the public.
What a joke, he was an adult and if he were to get beaten in front of such a large crowd, he would definitely become the joke of the entire hospital.
In fact, he felt that when young children nowadays were disobedient, receiving moderate beatings was normal.
An outstanding student would only blossom under strict teachings!
Zi Yi tilted her head and glanced at the Deputy Director who left in search of a feather duster before she headed towards the middle-aged man with a dissatisfied expression on her face. She then removed the needle that was still in him.
The middle-aged man looked at Zi Yi and all of a sudden, he suddenly felt scared.
What if this student randomly gives him a diagnosis without using that powerful examination tool she had used earlier? At the thought of this, the middle-aged man spoke with his trembling lips. “I… I won’t be visiting the doctor anymore. You can check up on someone else!”
Zi Yi stopped moving and asked, “You’re honestly not going to visit the doctor?”
“Yes, you can go and check up on someone else.”
The middle-aged man took a step back as he said that.
Zi Yi saw his att.i.tude and clicked her tongue. Just when everyone a.s.sumed that she would give up trying to diagnose that man, she directly reached out her hand.
The middle-aged man’s wrist was held and he nearly jumped away.
“Don’t move,” Zi Yi said in a low voice and the middle-aged man trembled. Just when he wanted to yell at her, she asked, “Do you feel cold no matter how many layers of clothes you wear during the day? Yet, during the night, you feel so warm that you keep on sweating. So much so that you usually don’t cover yourself with the quilt?”
“You… how did you know?”
Zi Yi swept her gaze across him and continued to speak. “When you were young, you were hit by a heavy object in your liver area. In addition, you had drunk some of your own medicinal liquor you brewed in the past…”
The more Zi Yi spoke, the more frightened the middle-aged man got.
The spectators listened and spectated the scene quietly. Just then, the Deputy Director who finally found the feather duster from the storeroom finally came over to Elder Tang and he spoke in a whisper. “Elder Tang, I’ve brought the feather duster you asked for.” Elder Tang gave him a glance and his tone was much milder as compared to before. “Hold on to it. There’s no need for it anymore.’

Deputy Director: “…”
So you asked me to find you a feather duster for fun?
After the Deputy Director roasted Elder Tang deep down, he then looked towards Zi Yi who had her hand on the middle-aged man’s wrist and explained the cause of his illness. He carefully listened to her diagnosis.
After hearing her diagnosis, he had forgotten about how he had just roasted Elder Tang just moments ago.
Zi Yi and the middle-aged man’s situation continued for a while where one asked a question and the other answered the question. After diagnosing what illness he had, she retracted her hand and took a step back.
The middle-aged man asked anxiously, “Doctor, can this illness of mine be cured?”
“Yes, it’s a minor illness.”
All the doctors and professors present: “What do you mean it’s a minor illness? These types of chronic illnesses that had acc.u.mulated over the years were the most difficult to cure!”
Elder Tang reminded Zi Yi at that moment. “Little Zi, hold back on the words you use.”
Zi Yi obediently nodded and repeated herself again. “If you wish to cure your illness, you have to consume two rounds of medicine and adjust your body’s condition.”
Everyone present: “…What was the difference between what you said now and just moments
ago?”
However, Elder Tang felt that his beloved student was sufficiently low-profile and said, “You can start prescribing his medicine.”
Zi Yi subconsciously opened her virtual screen.
Elder Tang’s eyes glared at her again. “Use your hand to write.”
Zi Yi reluctantly took a pen and prescription book handed to her by a kind doctor. She sat there and started writing down the list of medicinal ingredients.
While she was writing a prescription for him, the group of doctors and professors all surrounded her.
Zi Yi’s handwriting was very beautiful. It was also in a font that everyone could read.
When they saw that she finished writing the prescription, one of the professors said in a shocked tone, “Why didn’t I ever think it was possible to mix medicine X and medicine Y together? To think that these two medicines can neutralize another medicine.”
Another doctor thought about it carefully and praised. “This prescription is perfect. Several ingredients paired together can cure congestion in the blood vessels. In that case, the patient would not feel cold during the day or hot during the night.”
The group of doctors and professors were all full of praise for Zi Yi’s prescription. After Zi Yi finished writing the prescription, she did not immediately hand it to the patient. She merely said, “This medicine has to be taken for an entire month. Come back a month later and I’ll open another prescription to regulate your body condition.” Just as the middle-aged man was about to take the prescription with both hands, Zi Yi put the slip of paper aside and said, “There’s no hurry, you can take a seat here and wait.”
Even though he did not know Zi Yi’s intention, the middle-aged man thought that since a group of doctors and professors had praised her prescription, it must be a good one. His chronic illness that he had been suffering from for all these years could finally be cured.
Looking at the middle-aged man taking a seat, the other patients had also revealed expressions of wanting to receive Zi Yi’s diagnosis.
Zi Yi then took out all the silver needles in them.
“Doctor, please have a look at me too. Your medical skills are so superb and I believe you can cure my illness.”
“Help me take a look too. I am willing to pay, no matter how much it costs.”
“I beg of you.”
