The longed-for village system

Chapter 361 Questions
"Xiao Chen, everyone is very curious about how you learned this amazing medical skill, and whether you can really treat the vast majority of diseases?"

This issue remains a major concern for everyone. If Chen Qing is only proficient in one or a few aspects, then people with other illnesses won't bother coming to try their luck.

"This is the power of traditional Chinese medicine. Unless it is a family-inherited prescription that specializes in treating a specific condition, it is effective in treating all conditions if one is proficient in one, because traditional Chinese medicine cannot be learned in separate parts."

"Just like acupuncture, you need to memorize all the major acupoints on the human body and their functions, as well as the effects of combining acupoints. The same principle applies to prescription medicine. Different people with the same disease sometimes need completely different prescriptions, and the prescriptions for men and women are also different. This is the theory of human constitution in traditional Chinese medicine. You must understand it deeply, rather than just having a superficial understanding."

Everyone recalled that it seemed to be true; they had never seen a senior TCM doctor who could only treat one disease. They could treat almost any disease, only some diseases were less effective.

Dong Qing thought for a moment and nodded, "It seems that it really is true. Traditional Chinese medicine doctors are quite versatile in treating illnesses. They can treat bone setting, acupuncture, colds and fevers, and even lumbar disc herniation. It's amazing."

"Yes, but it's not anything magical. After all, you have to learn all aspects, so there are relatively few TCM practitioners in the market, and even fewer young TCM doctors. Now it's an era that emphasizes efficiency, making more money in the shortest amount of time. However, most diseases can be cured with TCM for only a few dozen yuan, so the profit is too low, and therefore not many people learn it."

After Chen Qing said that, everyone nodded in understanding. Indeed, the prices of traditional Chinese medicine prescriptions were sometimes frighteningly low, less than a hundred yuan for ten or so packets of medicine. Compared to Western medicine, which often cost hundreds or thousands of yuan, it was really a drop in the ocean.

Indeed, when it comes to fair pricing, traditional Chinese medicine is the most reliable. Although treatments sometimes take a little longer, the side effects of traditional Chinese medicine are almost negligible compared to Western medicine. Moreover, it's not that traditional Chinese medicine is slower than Western medicine for all injuries and illnesses. For example, in cases of bone setting, colds, and fevers, Western medicine simply can't keep up with traditional Chinese medicine.

"Of course, this is relative. If you master traditional Chinese medicine techniques, your earning power will be unmatched by ordinary people. Especially abroad, the daily income of acupuncture masters can be higher than the monthly salary of an average person."

No one refuted what Chen Qing said, which shows that everyone now trusts Chen Qing's words to a very high degree. They might even believe it if Chen Qing said that kissing between men and women can help with weight loss.

As for those who studied Western medicine, although they wanted to refute it, they couldn't find an excuse. With Chen Qing's current abilities, even if he asked for 100 million yuan for a single treatment, those capitalists would beg him to treat them. If he wanted to, his daily rate of accumulating wealth would be unmatched by any other company except China Tobacco Company.

The hospital? It's not even considered a subordinate by him.

"So, Xiao Chen, who did you learn all these medical skills from?"

"I basically learned it all by reading books and figuring it out on my own. Maybe I just have a knack for it! It was quite easy for me to learn, and I never expected it to turn out like this."

System: You dog host, it's clearly my achievement, yet you shamelessly claim you figured it out yourself. You've got nothing but a few tricks up your sleeve.

Chen Qing: You damn system, shut up! I'm doing this for your own good. Do you want to lose this genius? Go back and prepare your skills. Next time, please be more generous with the lottery draw.

Chen Qing's answer gave everyone a sense of Versailles.

They acknowledged Chen Qing's talent; otherwise, he couldn't have achieved such abilities at such a young age. But even the most talented person needs a mentor to guide them. Could he really reach such a level simply by reading books and figuring things out on his own? What about those who graduated from medical school?

At this moment, the biggest sufferers are undoubtedly the group of doctors who graduated from regular colleges. They feel that their eight years of advanced studies have been a complete waste of time and energy. Chen Qing is leaving them no way out!
Of course, some people still didn't believe Chen Qing's words, thinking that Chen Qing's master didn't want him to reveal his name, just like those reclusive masters in TV dramas. No matter how talented a person is, it's impossible to achieve miraculous healing abilities through self-study. This isn't like reading books where you can just memorize by rote; there must be a divine physician teaching him behind the scenes.

"It seems like people don't quite believe this answer! They all say you must have a highly skilled doctor behind you, but your doctor just doesn't want everyone to know. What do you think, Xiao Chen?"

Although Dong Qing and the others believed Chen Qing's previous answer to some extent, they still had some doubts in their hearts. After all, Chen Qing's medical skills did not seem like something that could be learned through self-study; they were simply too extraordinary.

I felt it was a bit inappropriate to ask before, but now I can use the audience's voice to voice my doubts.

"Actually, that's quite normal! The ancients didn't have teachers; they all figured things out little by little on their own. I'm already learning from them by standing on their shoulders. But if we're talking about teachers, everyone definitely had one."

Here they come, here they come! Sure enough, there's a mastermind behind it all. They were just wondering how there could be no teacher! And that's how they found out.

Looking at the live stream camera, Chen Qing smiled and said, "This teacher is life itself."

The short sentence, just a few words, deeply shocked everyone. Looking at Chen Qing on the screen, everyone was at a loss for words.

They've heard and seen the saying "long illness makes one a good doctor." Some patients, having been troubled by a disease for a long time, have a better understanding of it than doctors.

If Chen Qing truly mastered such extraordinary medical skills because of this, how much suffering must he have endured as a child! They dared not even imagine it.

Zhao Xiaogu reached out and grabbed Chen Qing's hand, her eyes welling up with tears again. Her man had suffered so much in his childhood; what kind of hardships had he endured to develop his extraordinary skills today?

Zhao Xiaogu didn't blame the villagers. It was already good enough that they could give Chen Qing food and a place to stay. After all, they weren't rich either and had their own families and children to support. It was just that little Chen was really too pitiful.

Seeing his wife looking so pitiful again, Chen Qing couldn't help but laugh. He was just making up an excuse; would his wife really take it seriously?

At this point, the content of the live stream also changed.
"I feel so sorry for Brother Chen. How much suffering did he have to endure to learn these skills!"

"Yes! It's really not easy, and what's even more remarkable is that Brother Chen has such a positive attitude towards life. I can't even imagine doing it myself."

"As expected, my idol is a super positive role model. Keep up the good work, we will always support you."
