Rebirth of an Idle Noblewoman (1-200)

Chapter 154: Shocking Wave Through The Medical World

Hua Jingya never expected to see the two people in front of her again, and it caught her off guard.

She first caught sight of Gu Xiqiao standing next to the door, and then Jiang Shuxuan, who stood behind her. The lights during the day were brighter than that night, and she could clearly see the beautifully marble-like silhouette of the man, the elegant arch of his eyebrows and the delicate features of his face. It was completely different than the other night she had seen him, his obsidian eyes seemed to be a pool of never ending abyss. If you were to look into it, it would only send chilling frost into your heart.

Hua Jingya could feel the cold rising at her back, and she took a deep breath. She turned her eyes to Gu Xiqiao, and remembered what she had just said. She flashed her a kind, but conceited smile, and spoke as though she was explaining to a child. “This lady can tell at a glance the acupoints of my needles, so you must also be someone within the same field. Then, could it be possible that you don’t know about the acupuncture method called ‘break to stand’?”

She wasn’t talented in other areas, and was only unique in terms of her medical skills. There were countless people who praised her on it since her childhood, and the master who taught her medicine had nothing else he could teach her, and pointed her toward the outside world, asking her to seek out the divine doctor, Rong Feishuang.

Her master had said that with her peerless talent, Rong Feishuang would definitely not turn her down.

But she hadn’t been able to find the divine doctor up till now, and she had run into this patient. She followed all the steps in the medical records to treat him, and it had worsened out of her expectation instead of getting better. At this time, she could only use the secret technique that her master had taught her.

“Break to stand?” Gu Xiqiao slowly walked to Wang Jincheng’s side, and looked at the legs that clearly were beginning to rot. “Can you really cure these legs without any form of antibiotics?”

Her face was like porcelain, and her posture was elegant and straight. She wore a bright colored top, but it looked dull under the bright complexion of her face. Her voice was cold and majestic, and Hua Jingya could clearly sense the faint aura of supremacy from her person.

No one had ever questioned her medical skills, and Hua Jingya frowned at Gu Xiqiao. “Antibiotics? I thought you were a traditional Chinese woman through and through, why must you be like those who admire Western medicine methods and all the other foreign methods? In terms of medicine, the teachings and knowledge that have been left by our ancestors are our treasures, and you should be using them and spread their teachings to educate the people. Antibiotics are the kind of things that only cure the symptoms, but not the root cause! They are more harmful than beneficial to the body, and have probably killed a lot of people!”

Now that Western medicine was in the lead, it was harder for traditional Chinese medicine to shine now. The reason was because the people in the country leaned more toward Western medicine methods, because the effect was fast and good, being able to quickly cure a lot more diseases than the traditional Chinese medicine was able to.

Gu Xiqiao wasn’t able to deny the exquisite and delicate art of traditional Chinese medicine, but it was too much to devalue Western medicine methods just because of those reasons.

Without the existence of antibiotics, the viral flu in the early days during the founding of the People’s Republic of China would have killed countless people. All of this was obvious to everyone, otherwise, why would their people choose Western medicine? They used their own eyes to witness it, after all.

Western medicine had many drawbacks, this was an undeniable fact. However, they were also improving day by day. Their medicine knowledge, studies and research were getting more advanced as the days went by.
