Volume 1: A sound on Wall Street, Xinxiang City is busy copying books Chapter 171: Ten Thousand Doctors
Subtitle of this chapter: Keep pretending to be cool
"Mr. Edison, you have diabetes! Is that right?"
"Oh, buy cake. This is really amazing!"
Before old Edison could reply, young Edison cried out in surprise.
"My father does have diabetes, and..."
Doctor Yuan added, "And your father also has chronic nephritis."
After hearing this, Theodore Edison became even more excited and said, "Oh my God, Mr. Yuan. You are right! No need for blood test or urine test, even stethoscope and thermometer are not needed... This is really amazing!"
"Mr. Yuan, how did you do that?!"
Louis Baker next to him also looked curious and asked, "Yeah, Neo. How did you figure that out?!"
Upon hearing the two people's questions, Yuan Yan's face suddenly became serious and his expression became solemn, which immediately made several people feel mysterious and profound.
At this moment, the bright light from the lamp and the moon seemed to have coated the great doctor Yuan with a layer of gilded enamel. The whistling evening breeze could not blow away his tall and handsome figure.
Our Master Yuan slowly put his hands behind his back and slightly raised his handsome face to the sky at a 45-degree angle.
This is really: God is like light clouds, people are lighter than wind. Cranes dance on the white sand, swallows return to the red tower.
Yuan Yan, who looked like a hermit, neither looked at the two curious young men nor the two surprised and speechless old men. He turned his back to the four people and just sighed heavily...
“Master Ball, why does this cost B-coins?! And it costs 50,000??!! Why don’t you just go and grab one???!!!”
"Host, you forcibly used undisclosed medical information. This system has already shown mercy by not calling you 'Pikachu'. Do you still think it's too expensive?"
"call……"
"Neo. Neo? Neo!"
Yuan Yan, who was so angry about this broken system and felt sad about losing 50,000 B coins, finally turned around. He frowned slightly and said unhappily, "Ah, are you asking me how I diagnosed it?"
The attitude of the great doctor Yuan was a bit bad, but the four people present, including the very bad-tempered old Edison, did not mind. This was because this Chinese man was really a master, and masters always have a bit of a weird temperament.
Mr. George Baker, who has rich life experience, said sympathetically: "Neo, if this involves the secret methods of your Chinese medicine, you don't have to tell me."
"It's okay, Mr. Baker." Master Yuan forced a smile and said, "This is not a secret method. I'm just thinking about how to explain it so that you can understand it."
He pondered for a moment and then said, "Gentlemen, as I said, we Chinese medicine practitioners have four methods for diagnosing illnesses. I call them the four diagnostic methods, or 4S."
"The first one is SEE..."
"I first noticed that Mr. Edison kept drinking water after he sat down. It was the end of November and we were outside. The weather was not hot at all but a little cold, and none of us were sweating. So he was not replenishing water, he was probably just thirsty."
"Secondly, I noticed that he ate a lot of bread before the meal. I think Mr. Edison would not be short of this. So for someone of his age, such an appetite is really amazing."
He picked up a table knife, thought for a moment, put it down, picked up a spoon, smiled apologetically at the great inventor and said, "Mr. Edison, could you please cooperate with me?"
As an inventor, Thomas Edison naturally had a curiosity beyond ordinary people, so he nodded and said, "Of course."
Yuan Yan suddenly walked forward and poked his face with the handle of a spoon. "Gentlemen, you can see that Edison's skin is very loose, which means he lost a lot of weight in a short period of time. Why would someone with such a good appetite suddenly lose weight?"
"In fact, if you can observe the above three points, no matter if it is our traditional Chinese medicine or your Western medicine, as long as an experienced doctor can make a rough judgment, Mr. Edison is likely to have diabetes..."
"Careful observation! Insightful deduction! Neo, you can be called the 'Sherlock Holmes' of the medical field!!!" Louis Baker couldn't help but cheer.
The other three also nodded in satisfaction.
Our Master Yuan thought that, if we could work backwards from the results, it would be meticulous, insightful, and like Yuan Holmes.
He waved his hand gracefully and said, "Thank you, Louis. Then the next step is our unique method of traditional Chinese medicine."
"Everyone, please look!"
Yuan Yan suddenly said "sorry" to the great inventor, stepped forward and forcefully opened Mr. Edison's lower eyelids, saying, "Mr. Edison's lower eyelids are not only swollen, but also bright red inside. According to our Chinese medicine theory, this is a sign of kidney damage and toxins in the blood."
"Mr. Edison, please stick out your tongue." Then Master Yuan pointed at the great inventor's tongue and said, "Gentlemen, you should have seen that his tongue is white and has cracks on it. This is a phenomenon caused by physical weakness and deficiency of vital energy."
"The above is what I saw. The second one is SMELL."
Yuan Yan paused and said, "I don't know if you have noticed that when Mr. Edison speaks, he pauses several times. This is what we Chinese medicine practitioners call 'lack of vital energy'. His hearing is not very good either, and we Chinese medicine practitioners believe that a person's hearing is directly related to the health of his kidneys."
"Excuse me, the smell of his breath is not very good. When I get close to him, I can smell a strange smell on his body. I think a gentleman like Mr. Edison would not neglect his personal hygiene. This must be caused by some disease."
"As for the third one, it is SYPHYGMUS. This is also the most important diagnostic method in Chinese medicine. However, it is quite complicated. You won't be able to understand it without studying it for ten or eight years. I'm sorry that I won't explain it in detail."
"The fourth and final type is SEEK. It's essentially asking the patient and family members all kinds of details. But since Mr. Edison's symptoms are quite obvious, there's no need for me to ask more."
Our Master Yuan nodded to the four people and said, "Gentlemen, that's it!"
Then he returned to his original seat with a calm expression, picked up the vodka martini, and took a sip slowly.
At this time, the four foreigners were stunned. Not only were they impressed by the "4S" of traditional Chinese medicine, but they also deeply appreciated the meticulous observation ability and incisive logical thinking of the Chinese man in front of them.
Just as Mr. Baker Jr. said, he can definitely be called the "Sherlock Holmes" of the medical field!
Old Mr. Baker was the first to come back to his senses. He raised his glass to greet Yuan Yan and said, "Neo, a very wonderful diagnosis! I didn't expect a medical diagnosis to be so fascinating. And your Chinese medicine diagnostic techniques are really amazing... Isn't that right, Thomas?"
The great inventor said somewhat angrily: "Mr. Yuan has indeed made me change some of my views on you Orientals. But I still think that if Mr. Yuan studied Western medicine, you would achieve greater success."
"Yes." Little Edison said, "Mr. Yuan, you will definitely become an outstanding medical scientist... By the way, why don't you study medicine but choose political economy?"
Our Master Yuan's face straightened and he answered solemnly: "Mr. Theodore Edison, medical scientists can only save lives. And I..."
"I want to not only save my country, but heal the world!"
