“Our Chinese physicians probably don’t want to be too ostentatious, and Elder Hua doesn’t seem to want to create a storm of public opinion!”
Qin Yuan did not understand this either. After all, this seemed to be just a competition between doctors. There was no need to hide anything. However, from the conversation between Elder Hua and the traditional Chinese medicine doctors, Qin Yuan felt that this was what he meant!
“Alright then! It is possible that he did not want to affect the relationship between the countries!”
Elder Liao seemed to have understood something. When Qin Yuan said this,
Elder Liao remembered that the last time, because Divine Doctor Hua defeated Western medicine with Chinese medicine, some of the audience members from the Western countries were unhappy and fought with the audience members from our country.
“What’s wrong?”
Qin Yuan was a little curious when he saw Elder Liao say this with a dark expression. This was because from Elder Liao’s expression, Qin Yuan knew that Elder Liao should know why!
“After Divine Doctor Hua defeated Western medicine previously, some of the audience from Western countries were unhappy, so they started arguing with our country’s audience.”
“And they fought. I heard that there were even deaths. This time, the international public opinion is very big!”
“So, Divine Doctor Hua must be doing this because he doesn’t want the same thing to happen again!”
Hearing Elder Liao’s explanation, Qin Yuan finally understood Elder Hua’s motive for doing so. However, Qin Yuan had swept his gaze across the audience just now and did not find anyone from other countries. It was possible that the organizers did not allow spectators from other countries to enter this time!
Qin Yuan could understand this reason. Western medicine has dominated the field of healthcare for the past century or two, and in the eyes of many, it represents the pinnacle of medical expertise.
So, for them, it would be challenging to accept a sudden defeat by traditional Chinese medicine, especially if they held a biased or limited view of its effectiveness.
However, since Chinese medicine was experiencing a revival, they should seize the opportunity to demonstrate its capabilities to the world instead of being afraid.
Traditional Chinese medicine needs to demonstrate its strengths to the world and make the global medical community aware that its thousands of years of heritage cannot be easily compared to the few hundred years of Western medicine.
In particular, after Qin Yuan obtained the Medical Compendium, he discovered that it contained a vast amount of information on various diseases and treatment methods. Even medical conditions that modern medicine struggles to treat are documented in the compendium. As a result, Qin Yuan’s understanding of traditional Chinese medicine has greatly expanded, surpassing multiple levels.
“Since the Chinese medicine representatives and the international representative doctors had a draw in the first stage, then the second stage of the medical competition will definitely be especially exciting! Let’s wait and see!”
Not long after, the host’s voice rang out. Many people felt that the results of the first stage of the competition were too coincidental, but they did not know that this was a deliberate move by Elder Hua!
“Chinese medicine will win!”
“That’s right. Don’t forget that Divine Doctor Hua didn’t even make a move. If he did, he would definitely be able to defeat them!”
“That’s right! Divine Doctor Hua definitely didn’t want Western medicine to lose too badly. Otherwise, he would definitely defeat them completely!”
For a time, some of the audience members in the venue commented softly.
After all, Elder Hua had not participated in the first stage of the competition. If Elder Hua had participated, the result would definitely not have been like this.
Therefore, the audience in the venue was also looking forward to the second stage of the competition because they knew that Divine Doctor Hua would definitely make a move in the second stage.
Qin Yuan did not agree with Elder Hua’s operation. After all, this was a competition of medical skills. Since it was a competition, he should go all out!
“Good! Since the first stage of the competition had ended, the second stage of the competition for difficult and miscellaneous diseases had officially begun!”
“First of all, can the Chinese medicine representatives send out a patient with a
difficult and complicated disease for the international doctor representatives to diagnose!”
As soon as the host finished speaking, a patient was pushed out by the nurse.
“Hello, esteemed international medical experts! This patient is someone we have received with multiple complex and difficult conditions.”
“Due to the diverse range of diseases the patient is experiencing, it took some time for our traditional Chinese medicine practitioners to diagnose the specific conditions this patient is suffering from!”
“So we also want to see what the international medical experts have to say about the patient’s illness!”
A Chinese medicine doctor walked out and said to the international doctors.
At this moment, Qin Yuan, standing in the audience, also noticed the patients being presented by the traditional Chinese medicine practitioners for diagnosis.
The patient was wearing a black coat that covered his entire body except for the eyes, with thick clothing layered on every other part!
Seeing the patient wearing so many clothes in such hot weather, Qin Yuan found it peculiar and decided to use the system to scan the patient.
“Porphyria?”
For a moment, Qin Yuan exclaimed in surprise. From the series of symptoms and manifestations of the patient on the stage, there was no doubt that it was Porphyria.
This disease had long been recorded in the Pharmacopeia. This disease was also known as the top ten strange diseases and ranked first. It was already recorded in the Traditional Chinese Medicine Pharmacopaea!
“Porphyria?”
Hearing Qin Yuan, even Elder Liao was puzzled. He had never heard of such a disease in the world.
“Qin Yuan, what kind of illness is this?”
Elder Liao asked curiously. This was the first time he had heard of this illness!
“This condition is when the natural chemicals in the human body produce too much blin. Porphyria can cause serious problems in the body, such as vomiting, itching, and epilepsy.”
“But the worst thing is that it can cause a person to be overly sensitive to sunlight and seriously damage the skin. Because of this symptom, it is called ‘vampire disease’ in traditional Chinese medicine.”
Qin Yuan began to explain to Elder Liao. Qin Yuan was amazed by this illness. These were all recorded in his pharmacopeia. As for whether there were any records of this illness in modern Western medicine, Qin Yuan did not know!
“Is there such a disease in this world?”
Hearing Qin Yuan’s explanation, Elder Liao also exclaimed. He did not expect such a strange illness to exist in this world!
“Then can this illness be cured?”
Elder Liao also asked the question that he was most concerned about. He did not know much about this disease! As a doctor, what he cared about the most was whether this illness could be cured.
“This disease cannot be cured. At present, there is no way to cure the disease, whether it is traditional Chinese medicine or Western medicine. The patient will have repeated episodes throughout his life. However, through regular treatment, staying away from the inducement can prolong the time of the illness and improve the quality of life of the patients with Porphyria.” “Porphyria is prone to repeated attacks. When it attacks, the patient will be in more pain! This kind of illness could be controlled by traditional Chinese medicine, but it was too difficult to cure it!”
According to the records Qin Yuan found in the medical compendium, there were indeed treatment methods for porphyria. However, Qin Yuan was aware that the patient on stage was already in the advanced stage of the disease. If it had been detected earlier, there might have been a chance for a less costly cure.
The system’s medical compendium did provide treatment methods for this condition, but the cost was equally high. Currently, Qin Yuan had no means to treat the patient on stage, so he could only inform Liao about the inability to provide a cure.
Because Xiao Zhenwu’s cancer was already giving him a headache. He couldn’t treat the patient on stage too!
For a moment, even Qin Yuan felt how scarce skill points were. This was the first time he felt that skill points were not enough when he needed them!
If he had enough skill points, Qin Yuan would be willing to treat the patient.
Now, even someone like him could only alleviate the symptoms and buy time. As for healing, he could only wait until he had enough skill points!
“I really didn’t expect there to be such a strange disease!”
Elder Liao sighed. He could only be surprised by this illness. As for the treatment, he did not dare to think about it.
“This strange disease can already be compared to cancer!”
Qin Yuan did not expect the Chinese medicine doctors to take out such a patient for a competition.. They probably wanted to see if Western medicine had a way to treat this patient!
