Chapter 735 I’m the Stupid One
“Yes, you’re sick!” Qin Haodong was not influenced by him at all. He said to Bolton calmly, “In general, you’re in good health. But there’s something wrong with your mouth. You have bad breath and the smell is quite strong.”
“Well…”
Bolton was embarra.s.sed after Qin Haodong pointed out in public that he had bad breath. Fortunately, he was a black man with dark skin, so no one noted that he had blushed.
James said, “Master, you’re right. This guy has bad breath, and I have to keep two meters away from him when I talk to him or I’ll feel sick.”
The students immediately broke into loud applause when they saw that their teacher had pointed out the black’s man secret disease.
They all had heard of the Medical Sage before, but today they finally saw his magical medical skills with their own eyes.
Qin Haodong continued, “Chinese and Western medicine have their own strengths. Although the World Medical a.s.sociation represents the highest level of medicine, you can’t find the root of his disease nor any solution to his problem with Western medicine. Your bad breath is caused by the heat in your stomach.
“So you have been troubled by your bad breath for many years. I’m afraid that you are still single now. I believe that no girl can accept your bad breath unless she has serious sinus problems.”
James immediately said, “Master, you’re right. Although he made a lot of money, he’s still single. I guess he’s probably still a virgin…”
He was very happy now. These people had slandered traditional Chinese medicine and said that he had been cheated by the Huaxia people. He had been angry, but there was nothing he could do to defend traditional Chinese medicine. Luckily, his teacher proved that he was right and helped him vent his anger.
“Mr. Qin, I admit that you’re right this time.”
Bolton was embarra.s.sed, but he still admitted it in public. Then he sat down awkwardly.
As soon as he sat down, another white member of the World Medical a.s.sociation stood up. He said, “Mr. Qin, I’m Gullit. I’ve seen your magical medical skills, but I still want to verify them for myself. Could you please tell me what my disease is?”
The cla.s.sroom fell silent once again. After all, these people from the World Medical a.s.sociation were quite healthy and it was very difficult to discern the man’s bad breath. They didn’t know whether Qin Haodong could accurately diagnose this person again.
Qin Haodong looked indifferent and confident. He said, “There’s something wrong with your stomach, but its cause remains unfound even with help of the instruments of Western medicine. You are afraid of cold weather and you can’t eat anything cold at all.
“You’re very healthy by the standards of Western medicine, but you must feel distressed. Your disease is called ‘stomach cold’ in our traditional Chinese medicine. The main cause is that you always have cold food and there is too much cold Qi in your body.”
Gullit said excitedly, “That’s right. Mr. Qin, you’re absolutely right. Traditional Chinese medicine is so amazing. I’m completely convinced now.”
Then he also returned to his seat.
Seeing that the members of the delegation were convinced by Qin Haodong’s medical skills one by one, Rooney was embarra.s.sed. He said, “Mr. Qin, since you are such a great doctor, can you figure out my disease?”
Qin Haodong said, “You look very healthy now. There’s nothing wrong with you except for being fat.”
A smile appeared on Rooney’s face as he thought that he had finally found this man’s weak spot. But before he could open his mouth and say something, Qin Haodong continued, “But you are suffering from seasonal allergic rhinitis. From March to April every year, you are allergic to peach blossoms. You suffer from sneezing and a runny nose.
“Although this disease doesn’t kill you, it makes you feel very painful. But Western doctors can do nothing about it. They can only control your disease with hormone drugs. But the side effects are quite strong. You’ve taken the drugs for a long time, which is the major reason why you’re so fat now.
“Mr. Rooney, what do you think? Am I right?”
Rooney flushed. But he finally gritted his teeth and admitted, “You’re right, I’m indeed suffering from this disease.”
At this moment, everyone present got excited. It was quite easy to diagnose a disease when having that disease. But now it was September, and there was still half a year to go before Rooney suffered from the disease.
But Qin Haodong could figure out his hidden illness at a glance. His magical medical skills could only be regarded as a miracle.
Seeing Qin Haodong make an accurate diagnosis and defeat the World Medical a.s.sociation, Rooney was distressed. He said unwillingly, “Mr. Qin, we are doctors. What we need to do is help the patients relieve their pain. It’s useless to make an accurate diagnosis only. The most important thing is to find out the treatment method.”
“No problem.” Qin Haodong said, “Although my lesson today is about the diagnosis of traditional Chinese medicine, I can satisfy you if you want to see how I treat patients with traditional Chinese medicine.”
Rooney said, “Well then, please treat the patients that you’ve diagnosed.”
Gullit said, “Dear Mr. Qin, I have another question. I heard that although traditional Chinese medicine is effective, its therapeutic session is quite long and the patient has to take the medicine for a long time. You won’t make us wait for a long time, will you?”
“Of course not.” Qin Haodong said, “Chinese medicine is profound and complicated, and there are many treatment methods. Taking medicine is just one of them. There are also acupuncture, ma.s.sage, cupping, food therapy, and others.”
Then he took out the needle bag. “I don’t even need to make a prescription for your disease. All of them can be cured by acupuncture.”
At this time, another member of the delegation stood up, “Mr. Qin, I’m Nedved of the World Medical a.s.sociation. I am a Western doctor, but I’m very familiar with acupuncture. I have obtained the certificate of an acupuncture master in M Country.
“I think it can only be used to relax the muscles and promote blood circulation. It’s impossible to cure diseases with acupuncture.”
Qin Haodong said, “Mr. Nedved, here’s an example. Acupuncture is a powerful and highly explosive grenade, but it can only be used as an iron block, or a hammer at most if you don’t know how to detonate it.
“To be honest, acupuncture is like a hammer in your hands. The acupuncture masters of M Country don’t know the meaning and essence of acupuncture at all. Only the great Chinese medicine pract.i.tioners know how to bring out its best.”
He finished his words in a determined and serious way. Seeing that traditional Chinese medicine had finally proved itself in front of the World Medical a.s.sociation, the students present immediately burst into thunderous applause.
Nedved’s face clouded after he heard what Qin Haodong had said. He then responded, “Well then, Mr. Qin, let’s see what the difference is between your acupuncture and mine. We’ll soon find out who is the grenade and who is the hammer.”
It seemed that the foreigner was still not convinced. Qin Haodong ignored him and went over to Huang Fusheng. “Take off your clothes. I can eliminate your allergic symptoms in five minutes.”
Although Huang Fusheng was unwilling to do what he had said, he knew that they were in the open cla.s.s and it was not the time to make a scene. So he followed Qin Haodong’s order and took off his clothes to show his back.
Qin Haodong held the needle bag in one hand and took out the needles with the other. He was so fast, and more than a dozen silver needles appeared on his back before anyone could figure out what had happened.
Nedved was shocked. He was also an acupuncture master, but it would take him at least five minutes to put the needles into the right acupuncture points.
Qin Haodong was so fast that he even thought that this young Huaxia person didn’t know what he was doing now. Didn’t he need to distinguish the acupuncture points? Didn’t he need to control the strength?
But Qin Haodong ignored his shocked expression. He stretched out his hand and flicked the end of the silver needles one by one. These silver needles seemed to become engines and kept trembling, continuously injecting the Green Wood Genuine Qi into his body.
“Oh my G.o.d, how did this happen? I can’t believe it!”
Nedved calmed down and took out a silver needle from Qin Haodong’s needle bag. He p.r.i.c.ked it in his Hegu acupoint. He had thought that the silver needle was specially made, and there might be something special or high-tech inside it.
But he soon found that this silver needle was no different from the ones that he used. The needles were the same, but their methods were completely different.
As the silver needles went deeper, the red spots on his back began to disappear. Just five minutes later, all the red spots disappeared, and Qin Haodong took back all the silver needles.
“Oh my G.o.d, traditional Chinese medicine is really amazing. The allergic symptoms disappeared with the few needles on his back…”
“How did he do that? This can’t happen!”
“Is this medical skill or a magic trick? I can hardly believe it…”
James said loudly, “I told you! But no one believed in me! Now you see it. My teacher is awesome, and traditional Chinese medicine is magical!”
He looked very proud, as if he was the one who had cured the disease.
After the treatment of Huang Fusheng, he went up to Bolton, who had bad breath.
Bolton had already taken off his s.h.i.+rt, revealing his thick chest hair. Although his disease was not serious, he had been troubled by it for years and couldn’t even find a girlfriend.
However, he was quite nervous at the sight of the s.h.i.+ny silver needles. “Mr. Qin, I will suffer great pain when these long silvers go deep into my body. Do I need some anesthetic?”
Qin Haodong didn’t answer his question at all. He raised a silver needle and stuck it into the Tanzhong acupoint on his chest.
Seeing the silver needle in his chest, Bolton opened his mouth in surprise. If he hadn’t seen it with his own eyes, he wouldn’t have believed that there was a silver needle inside his body, as he couldn’t even feel it. He was astonished by Qin Haodong’s magical skills.
“Oh my G.o.d, how did you do it, Mr. Qin? It doesn’t hurt at all.”
“Acupuncture needs the cooperation of hands, eyes, heart, and mind. If you can activate all these things properly, the patient won’t feel any pain when the needle goes into their body.”
As he spoke, he grabbed the end of the silver needle. He lifted the needles and put them back three times and finally took them out within two minutes.
“Well, you can give it a try. You won’t have the bad breath anymore.”
Bolton covered his mouth with his right hand in disbelief and sniffed his breath. Then he cried out in surprise, “Oh my G.o.d, I have no bad breath now! I can date beautiful ladies from now on! I don’t need to be a virgin anymore…”
Several members of the World Medical a.s.sociation next to him also moved closer to him. In the past, as long as he was within two meters from them, they would find an unpleasant smell, but now they were half a meter away from him, but there was no bad smell.
They didn’t expect that Qin Haodong could cure the bad breath within two minutes. They had no way to eradicate it with Western medicine. If Bolton was not one of their members, they would have thought that he had been hired by Qin Haodong to deceive them.
They praised him, saying, “Mr. Qin, your acupuncture is really amazing!”
Nedved also said with admiration, “Mr. Qin, I’m really sorry. I’m the hammer compared to your magical skills!”
Although he spoke a little Huaxia language, he was not very proficient in it. He didn’t know that hammer actually referred to something else in the Huaxia language (someone stupid). Then all the people present burst into laughter after hearing his words.
Next, it was Gullit’s cold stomach. This time, Qin Haodong didn’t even use acupuncture. He stretched out two fingers and ma.s.saged his Zhongwan acupoint. The pure Green Wood Genuine Qi soon cleared away the cold Qi in his stomach.
“Well, there’s nothing wrong with your stomach now.”
Gullit asked in confusion, “Mr. Qin, you just touched my body. Are you sure that you’ve cured my disease?”
