Chapter 153 Why is it this kid again?
For a traditional Chinese medicine practitioner, the most important skills are observation, listening, questioning, and palpation.
If you can't even diagnose a patient's condition, then there's no point in talking about prescribing the right medicine.
Therefore, the competition method proposed by Zhao Liangli is quite appropriate.
Li Yi then asked, "So where do we choose our patients?"
"Kid, you can pick any place you want. I'll make you admit defeat!"
As the successor of the Ghost Doctor, Zhao Liangli's medical skills should not be too bad. If I want to win decisively, I must find some difficult and complicated cases to treat.
Li Yi thought for a moment and said, "In that case, let's go to the Central Hospital. There are many patients there every day."
"No problem. I happen to know Old Xie from the Central Hospital quite well. I'll give him a heads-up and ask him to cooperate. You don't mind, do you?"
No objections.
Zhao Liangli nodded in satisfaction. He was about to turn around and leave when he suddenly said, "By the way, kid, remember to bring the Thirteen Ghost Needles. If you lose later, you can just hand them over to me."
Upon hearing this, Li Yi was reminded of something else.
Since the Zhao family are all ingrates, this is a good opportunity to collect some interest for Wang Yinghe and the others.
"etc!"
"Hey kid, what do you want now?"
Li Yi smirked. "Hey Zhao, since this is a competition, shouldn't we be fair?"
Upon hearing this, Zhao Liangli frowned. "What do you mean by that?"
"What I mean is, if we lose, we'll have to teach you the Thirteen Ghost Needles, but if you lose, shouldn't you offer something as a wager?"
"Boy, as agreed before, the duel will only determine who gets the Thirteen Ghost Needles, there are no other conditions."
Li Yi shook his head and retorted, "According to the previous rules, there was no rule that the Thirteen Ghost Needles could not be used during the competition."
Zhao Liangli said unhappily, "Hmph! It was clearly your Wang family that ran away first, so I only added a condition at the last minute. Don't try to make trouble for me."
"That's not right. We just moved house, how can that be called running away! What, are you afraid of losing?"
"What a joke! How could an old man like me lose to a mere brat like you?"
"Since that's the case, you might as well show some sincerity."
Zhao Liangli looked at Li Yi and sneered, "Fine! Kid, if you can win, I'll hand over an ancestral secret recipe. Is that alright?"
Seeing that Zhao Liangli had agreed, Li Yi no longer hesitated, "Then let's go now."
After watching Li Yi get into the car first, Zhao Liangli prepared to get in as well.
Just then, a man in a suit beside him suddenly spoke up, "Third Master, shouldn't we inform the family head about the duel?"
Upon hearing this, Zhao Liangli was immediately displeased. "Tch! A mere brat, he needs the Thirteen Ghost Needles to treat even the simplest case of stroke. How good can his medical skills be?"
Now that this brat can't use the Thirteen Ghost Needles, do you think I still can't beat him?
Upon hearing this, the man in the suit immediately nodded and said, "Third Master is right, I was overthinking it."
......
Jiangcheng, Central Hospital.
A group of elderly men with gray hair and wearing white coats arrived one after another at the entrance of the hospital lobby.
The leader of the group was Xie Zhenguo, the president of the Central Hospital.
As for the rest, they were all well-known experts and professors in the hospital.
Seeing Xie Zhenguo standing on tiptoe, staring intently at the hospital entrance, someone couldn't help but ask curiously, "Dean, is some leader coming over? Why all this fuss?"
Xie Zhenguo shook his head. "Zhao Liangli just called me and said he has some business to attend to. Let's all welcome him."
Zhao Liangli?
Upon hearing this name, many people were taken aback and couldn't recall who this person was for a long time.
Internal medicine specialist Zhang Yuanshan frowned slightly and asked uncertainly, "Dean, are you perhaps referring to Zhao Liangli of Guang Sheng Tang?"
Xie Zhenguo nodded immediately, "That's right, it's him!"
Guang Sheng Tang is a well-known time-honored brand in China. Although everyone present did not know Zhao Liangli, they had all heard of the name Guang Sheng Tang.
Upon learning the identity of the visitor, the group of people looked at each other in bewilderment.
Everyone here is a Western medicine doctor, and an expert in their respective fields. How can they stand at the door to greet a traditional Chinese medicine doctor?
Someone immediately became annoyed, "Dean, are you kidding me? Making so many of us wait here for a traditional Chinese medicine doctor?"
"Exactly! Are all our experts really inferior to a mere traditional Chinese medicine practitioner?"
"Guangshengtang may have a prestigious name, but what does it have to do with our Central Hospital?"
Seeing everyone talking at once, each one indignant, Xie Zhenguo's expression also turned somewhat displeased. "What's all the commotion? Have you all forgotten how our hospital lost face not long ago?"
"..."
Upon hearing this, all the experts obediently shut their mouths, and then a young figure simultaneously appeared in their minds.
As one of the parties involved, Zhang Yuanshan had a particularly vivid memory of it: "Dean, could it be that Zhao Liangli came here today to treat someone?"
"It shouldn't be!" Xie Zhenguo shook his head. "Our hospital doesn't have any important figures lately. Zhao Liangli is one of the top traditional Chinese medicine doctors in the country. Ordinary people can't get him to come."
Upon hearing this, many experts present breathed a sigh of relief.
After all, nobody wants to experience the feeling of being slapped in the face again.
"What brings that guy surnamed Zhao here?" someone asked curiously.
Xie Zhenguo said, "Who cares what he wants to do? Let's get on his good side first, so we can ask him for help if we encounter any tricky problems in the future."
Hearing this, the group of experts were somewhat unconvinced, but they didn't say anything more.
So everyone could only stand quietly at the door, waiting to see just how capable Zhao Liangli really was.
Time passed little by little.
Soon, a line of black cars drove into the hospital gate.
"They're here!"
As soon as Zhao Liangli got out of the car, Xie Zhenguo greeted him with a big smile.
"Hehe, Lao Zhao, it's been a long time!"
Although Xie Zhenguo was the president of the Central Hospital, in Zhao Liangli's mind, the traditional Chinese medicine passed down from his ancestors was the most powerful.
Therefore, in front of the other party, he not only did not feel any restraint, but even had a hint of arrogance.
"Old Xie, I have some business to attend to on your turf today. Could you help maintain order later?"
Xie Zhenguo was completely confused. "Old Zhao, what is it that requires you to come all this way?"
"Actually, it's nothing much. I just made an appointment to have a competition with someone to see who has better medical skills."
Wait a minute! A competition of medical skills?
Upon hearing this, Xie Zhenguo's eyes widened immediately. "Old Zhao, who's so bold as to dare to compare medical skills with you?"
"Hmph! Just an arrogant brat who doesn't know his place."
Zhao Liangli snorted coldly, then turned to look at a young man who had just gotten out of the car.
Xie Zhenguo was stunned for a moment, and then quickly looked in the same direction.
After he saw the young man who had just gotten out of the car, he blurted out.
"Li Yi!"
