Chapter 155 Why Not Just Cure It Completely?
```
"Hello, young man, I am the director of this hospital. May I ask your name? Do you also work in a hospital?"
Inspired by Xia Liu's description, Su Yi's interest was instantly piqued.
Considering the young man's age, if Liang Caiming's mother's condition was indeed as he had described, this young man's medical journey was certainly not a simple one.
"Xia Liu, the Xia of Xia Tian, not in a hospital, just a country doctor..." Xia Liu said nonchalantly.
"A country doctor?"
"Haha, a country doctor is certain that the patient is not sick. Telling others would probably make them die of laughter."
"The person is skilled, can tell the symptoms with just one touch of the pulse, what do you know, haha..."
Xia Liu's response immediately elicited laughter from several doctors in white coats nearby.
They were all there to learn from Su Yi today.
What was Su Yi's status? The most accomplished and experienced professor in Binlai City.
You, a country doctor, dare to contradict Director Su, if that isn't arrogance, then what is?
"You all quiet down for a moment, there's no end to the path of medicine. Xia Liu, how did you determine that the patient was not sick and had been injected with a sedative?"
Unlike the other doctors, Su Yi didn't know why, but he felt that there was something extraordinary about Xia Liu.
"Taking the pulse." Xia Liu said simply, offering no further explanation.
"Haha! I knew it was going to be something like that." A doctor wearing a mask burst into loud laughter.
The others also snickered secretly, thinking it absurd that anyone would still believe in pulse diagnosis nowadays—either an idiot or a fool in their eyes.
Even Su Yi's face showed that he was having difficulty maintaining his composure, for he also knew a thing or two about taking the pulse. Continue reading on empire
But to diagnose whether a patient was not sick or had been injected with a sedative just by feeling the pulse was simply impossible.
"Xia Liu, don't talk for now." Liang Caiming also reminded him anxiously, her face filled with concern. She had initially thought this man was capable, but upon seeing the change in Su Yi's expression, she nearly wanted to cry. If she didn't intervene, Xia Liu would surely mess everything up.
"Director Su, my boyfriend often imagines himself as a Divine Doctor, so everything he just said was nonsense. Please go check on my mother as soon as possible."
...
Xia Liu almost spat blood and died on the spot, often deluding himself into thinking he had ascended to godhood... spouting nonsense...
Su Yi nodded with a smile, but he still stole a glance at Xia Liu, noticing that he didn't have anything more to say, which left Su Yi somewhat disappointed.
The group followed Liang Caiming to her mother's ward.
Several doctors, eager to show off their medical skills in front of Su Yi, volunteered to examine the patient.n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om
Su Yi did not object, since the patient was in a comatose state at the moment, a detailed examination was necessary to understand her condition.
With the help of a nurse, Liang Caiming's mother was taken to the examination room.
While waiting, Su Yi talked to stabilize Liang Caiming's mood, and also took the opportunity to probe Xia Liu further.
But he did not get what he wanted, for Xia Liu did not wish to explain anything.
Fifteen minutes later, two nurses pushed Liang Caiming's mother, Su Lihua, back to the ward, followed by the doctors from earlier.
They were all holding a medical report, looking utterly baffled.
Because their examinations had produced results exactly as Xia Liu had described!
Suffering from early-stage gastric cancer, not displaying symptoms, and indeed having been injected with a tranquilizer.
"Xiao Fan, what are the results?" As soon as they returned, Su Yi immediately asked one of the doctors.
"Professor Su, the patient has not displayed any symptoms and was injected with a tranquilizer about half an hour ago..." Xiao Fan lacked the courage to continue.
Because he, too, had participated in mocking Xia Liu just before.

"Ah!" Liang Caiming was shocked, she glanced at Xia Liu, and her face immediately turned red.
Just a moment ago, she had said that Xia Liu often indulged in fantasies, but now, her mother's condition was exactly as he had described!
The doctors felt the same way; they didn't dare to look up at Xia Liu.
This time, they were struck by a super powerful blow; he was just a rural clinician.
Yet, he knew the patient's condition, which they could only determine after a series of tests.
"This young man is extraordinary!" Su Yi looked at Xia Liu, who was silent, and felt full admiration in his heart.
In Binlai City, or rather, in Huaxia, there were no more than five people who could impress Su Yi, which was enough to prove the mystery of Xia Liu.
"Young man, I'm really sorry about just now." At this point, Su Yi could only apologize bitterly.
"I owe you an apology too." Liang Caiming also followed Su Yi in bowing her head to apologize.
"I study traditional Chinese medicine, and you study Western medicine; it's inevitable that we have different views in treating diseases."
Xia Liu replied amicably.
The doctors, including Su Yi, all felt bitter.
Although Xia Liu's words were light, they inadvertently revealed a disdain for Western medicine.
"Young man, your Chinese medicine skills are definitely very impressive. Is there any way to control this lady's condition?" Su Yi picked up on the subtext of Xia Liu's words.
He initially thought Xia Liu was extraordinary because he couldn't see through him, but now, he felt Xia Liu was a bit arrogant.
"Control? Why not just cure it completely?" Xia Liu asked, frowning.
"Cure it completely!!!"
"That's simply impossible!"
"Yes, the patient is suffering from cancer! One of the world's terminal illnesses!"
"I thought you were impressive for discerning the patient's condition, but now it seems you're just blindly guessing!"
The doctors, having heard Xia Liu mention a complete cure, shook their heads in disagreement.
Cancer was a disease with only one likely outcome: to spend the remaining days on a sickbed, or to travel and wait for death.
To think of a cure, even in countries with advanced medical technology, was something no one dared to claim.
Honestly, when Xia Liu said he could cure it completely, Liang Caiming almost jumped up.
But listening to the doctors, her heart suddenly cooled down.
Seeing them whispering among themselves, Xia Liu couldn't help shaking his head; the world was like this, telling the truth was always misunderstood.
Yet in the hospital room, only one person had a solemn expression: Su Yi. He tried to calm his emotions and asked weakly, "Xia Liu, are you from Hejing County?"
"Hejing County is the county town near where I come from, I'm from a certain town there."
"Do you happen to know a person named Lin Hongsheng?"
"The Director of the County Hospital?"
"Yes! That's him!" Hearing Xia Liu's confirmation, Su Yi immediately perked up.
He went up to grab Xia Liu's hand, excitedly saying, "Divine Doctor Xia Liu! I thought Lin Hongsheng was just humoring me and pulling my leg, but I never expected there to be a real Divine Doctor!"
That's right, Su Yi was completely excited; Lin Hongsheng was his disciple. Two months ago, this disciple claimed he had personally witnessed a Divine Doctor who simply used a few silver needles to cure two patients suffering from genetic diseases.
When Su Yi heard this news, he was skeptical too, even though Lin Hongsheng had mentioned Xia Liu's name.
At that time, he thought his disciple was just teasing him, for how could a few needles cure genetic diseases?
But now, his firm belief had been utterly shaken...
