The Divine Doctor and Stay-at-home Dad - Chapter 587
Chapter 587 Incredibly Misdiagnosed One
After the acupuncture model was removed from the stage, the exchange meeting continued.
Su Hongbo looked at Li Mintae with a playful look on his face and said, “Professor Li, do you have any evidence to prove that the Chinese medicine practitioner originated from your Koryo?”
Since the debate had gone on, these people from Koryo had not come to debate, but to present gifts. They had sent back the original copy of Huaxia’s Compendium of Materia Medica and then the acupuncture model. They wondered if there were any other good things.
Li Mintae’s face was livid. He glanced at Qin Haodong standing beside him. He really did not know if the young man would have a loan ticket if he took out another thing.
“Professor Su, whether Koryo medicine comes from Chinese medicine or Chinese medicine practitioner comes from Koryo medicine, we have yet to figure it out. Why don’t we go directly to the next one? Let’s see if Chinese medical skills are better than the others.”
In fact, everyone could see that in the first stage of the debate, Koryo had been completely suppressed by Huaxia.
Especially in the end, Qin Haodong’s outstanding performance at the acupuncture model made it hard for these arrogant Koryo people to suppress their temper.
Su Hongbo smiled slightly. With Qin Haodong, the great Medical Sage, he was not afraid of competing in medical skills. He said, “Okay, whatever Professor Li wants to compete in, we’ll take you on.”
Before Li Mintae could speak, Li Joongki cried, “I want to challenge Qin Haodong to compete in the method of pulse diagnosis.”
“Okay.”
Su Hongbo agreed instantly. He knew that Qin Haodong’s medical skills were the best on his side. Since the other side wanted to challenge the expert on his side, of course, he agreed readily to it.
Qin Haodong glanced at Li Joongki. Originally, with this guy’s medical skills, he was not qualified to challenge Qin Haodong at all. But since he had already thrust his face at Qin Haodong, then Qin Haodong did not mind giving him a couple of slaps.
“What do you want to compete in?”
“Let’s see how big the gap between the Chinese medicine practitioner and Koryo medicine’s pulse diagnosis is!”
As he spoke, Li Joongki was full of confidence and arrogance. Among all kinds of magic arts as a Chinese medicine practitioner, he was best at pulse diagnosis. So he directly mentioned the one he was best at.
Qin Haodong said indifferently, “How do we do the comparison?”
Li Joongki said, “We each choose three people for us to feel their pulses. These three people can be ill or healthy. Let’s see if the other party can give an accurate diagnosis.”
Qin Haodong said, “How do you judge if the result is accurate or not?”
Li Joongki said, “Every chosen person should write down their physical condition or illness in advance and then hand it to President Alice. It will be correct as long as the condition we diagnose matches the one the patient wrote. Each person will have three tries at diagnosing. The winner will be the one who has the most number of correct diagnoses in the end.”
“To be fair, in order to avoid cheating, we need to cover our eyes when we feel the pulse, seal our ears with the headset and only use our hands to diagnose the condition.”
“No problem,” Qin Haodong said, “Who wants to go first?”
Li Joongki said, “I’ll take the lead in the challenge. You can pick three people at will and I’ll take their pulses.”
After that, he sat behind a table, took out a black scarf to cover his eyes and put on a large headset with music turned on.
Qin Haodong looked down from the stage. Many onlookers were eager to try, especially Zhi Fubao and Tian Boguang. They were almost about to jump up.
He waved his hand and Zhi Fubao and Tian Boguang immediately ran onto the stage. Li Meiyu was always eager to be part of any lively action, so she followed the two guys to the stage. The three of them gathered together.
According to the rules of the competition proposed by Li Joongki, the three of them wrote down their physical conditions and then sent it to Alice.
Su Hui frowned and whispered to Qin Haodong, “Can the three of them do it?”
As her classmate, she was very clear about the physical conditions of these people. After taking the Physique-Improving Pill, these people were not ill at all and looked very healthy.
Qin Haodong laughed and said, “Let’s wait and see. These people came to Huaxia to belittle our Chinese medicine practitioner. Since they are so shameless, I will make them lose face here.”
Su Hui saw the smirk on Qin Haodong’s face and knew that things were not as simple as she thought. Li Joongki was going to be unlucky.
After the three of them exchanged their notes, Qin Haodong made a gesture of silence. He patted Li Meiyu’s shoulder casually and motioned for her to be the first to have her pulse felt.
Li Joongki’s ears and eyes were completely blocked, so Kim Siyuan stood next to him to assist him. After Li Meiyu sat down, she took Li Joongki’s hand and placed it on Li Meiyu’s pulse. The game had officially began.
Under everyone’s gazes, time passed by. About a minute later, Li Joongki retracted his hand and said confidently, “I’m clear about this. Bring on the next one.”
Qin Haodong patted Tian Boguang on the shoulder and asked him to have his pulse taken, followed by Zhi Fubao. In less than five minutes, the three of them had their pulses felt and returned to the audience area.
Li Joongki took off his headset and blindfold, took the pen and paper beside him and wrote down their symptoms one by one according to the sequence.
Kim Siyuan did not leave. She stood next to him. When she saw the symptoms he wrote down, her expression changed greatly. She could not help reminding him, “Are you sure?”
Li Joongki did not understand the hidden meaning behind Kim Siyuan’s words at all. He said proudly, “Of course. You know my pulse reading level is second only to my father’s. These people’s conditions are very common and it can’t go wrong.”
After that, he went straight to Alice and handed over the diagnosis of the illnesses he had written down.
Seeing this scene, Kim Siyuan did not say anything more. She went straight back to her seat and even used her hands to cover her face, as if she could not bear to watch anymore.
After seeing her behavior, all the people next to her had strange looks on their faces. They did not know what the problem was.
Alice took the paper bag and said, “Mr. Li, I’m not very familiar with Chinese characters. Maybe you should read it out yourself.”
“Well!” Li Joongki raised his head and looked at all the audience under the stage. He said confidently, “The first patient suffers from a kidney problem. His kidney defect has also led to a problem with his genitals, so he’s weak in…”
After listening to him, Li Mintae was completely stunned. He sat there with a stiff expression on his face and resembled a wax figure. He had never thought that his son would say such things.
Alice said, “Mr. Li, this is too profound. Could you explain it in a simpler way?”
Li Joongki said, “In layman’s term, it is a condition everyone calls impotence!”
Su Hongbo just took a sip of tea. When he heard the words, he suddenly spat it out and then coughed violently.
Although there were many spectators who were not knowledgeable about Chinese medicine practitioner, they burst into laughter when they heard what he said.
Everyone knew that the first patient was Li Meiyu. How could a beautiful girl be impotent? Could it be any funnier than this?
“This guy, he’s so funny. How dare he say that our campus belle is impotent, a quack! He’s really a quack!”
“I’ve lived for so many years. It’s an eye-opener. How dare they come to Huaxia with such low level skills to provoke us? I really don’t know what these guys are thinking of…”
“It’s so funny. It’s very funny. I thought this guy was at a high level, but now it seems that he’s not as good as me. At least I won’t say a woman is impotent!”
Tian Boguang and Zhi Fubao were sitting next to Li Meiyu. They looked at her and laughed till they were almost gasping for breath.
Li Joongki stood there, stunned by the laughter around him. He did not know what the problem was.
At this moment, a beautiful girl stood up from the audience area. She pointed at his nose and scolded, “Who are you talking about? You are the impotent one. Your whole family is impotent and your ancestors were all impotent…”
Li Meiyu was really mad. She had just wanted to join in the fun, but she did not expect that this guy’s diagnosis would be so wrong. How could he say that she was impotent?
“I…”
Li Joongki was completely dumbfounded. He had just diagnosed this girl, but the pulse he felt clearly indicated that the person was impotent. What was going on?
Feng Wu glanced at Qin Haodong who had a smirk on his face. She asked in a low voice, “Did you do that?”
“Don’t talk nonsense. The diagnosis was made by him. What does it have to do with me?” Qin Haodong said with a playful expression, “How can they know about the greatness and profoundness of Chinese medicine practitioner if we don’t let these guys suffer a loss?”
He had patted Li Meiyu on the shoulder. In an instant, he changed her pulse with Green Wood Genuine Qi. The pulse that Li Joongki had touched was exactly the one that he wanted Li Joongki to feel.
Su Hongbo held back his laughter, stood up and motioned for Li Meiyu to sit down to maintain the order at the venue. Then he motioned for Alice to continue.
Alice did not know about the mystery behind this incident. But she knew that Li Joongki’s first diagnosis was wrong and it was very wrong.
She said, “Mr. Li, please tell me your diagnosis of the second patient.”
Li Joongki took a deep breath and forced himself to calm down. He recalled Tian Boguang’s pulse. After confirming that there was no mistake, he said, “The second patient has a condition known as dysmenorrhea!”
This time, he did not dare to show off his achievements in Chinese medicine practitioner again and stated the final diagnosis directly.
But as soon as he said that, everyone present burst into great laughter.
Tian Boguang, such a big man, was said to have irregular menstrual cycles. How could people describe this kind of medical skills and this kind of doctor?
Li Mintae felt that his face was on fire. He finally understood why Kim Siyuan had that kind of reaction when she saw Li Joongki’s diagnosis result. He could not wait to find a place to hide now.
Shame on him! It was so humiliating! There were so many reporters and he had even had it live streamed all over the world. How could the Li family have the face to be doctors in the future?
All the spectators, who were watching the live broadcast all over the world, laughed heartily. They did not know whether the doctor from Koryo came here to compete in medical skills or was trying to be funny. First, he had said that a woman was impotent and then that a man had irregular menstrual cycles. He was too unreliable. Was this the ability of Koryo doctors?
