Chapter 82 You're practically a miracle doctor

After a brief introduction, Lin Mo learned that Li Chengyang was a professor at their Jiangning Medical College, a practitioner of traditional Chinese medicine, and also the vice president of the city's Traditional Chinese Medicine Hospital, where he occasionally went to see patients.

In academia, they are professors; outside of academia, in a hospital, they are specialists whose appointments are extremely difficult for ordinary people to get.

And he finally understood why Professor Mu said that studying medicine was infuriating, especially studying traditional Chinese medicine. It turned out that he had a wife who had studied traditional Chinese medicine all her life. No wonder he had that kind of feeling when he saw him reading books on massage and bone setting. He had projected his own feelings onto her.

While Professor Mu and the others went to the cafeteria for lunch, Lin Mo secretly went outside and burned the book on massage and bone setting.

As the paper burned, Lin Mo once again felt that strange sensation of knowledge being forcibly injected into his brain.

It was as if he had gained more experience in giving massage and bone setting. This time, compared to before, he had a deeper grasp of massage and bone setting, and also gained more knowledge about human anatomy, acupoints, and tendons and bones. After all, massage and bone setting involves more than just techniques.

Lin Mo waited until the book burned out completely before taking a deep breath and leaving, feeling a kind of mental exhaustion.

Meanwhile, after Professor Mu finished his meal, Li Chengyang helped his wife back to the bedroom.

Although Li Chengyang is a practitioner of traditional Chinese medicine and not known for his massage skills, he still has some experience with it, so naturally he would give his wife a massage.

"How are you feeling? Are you more comfortable?" Li Chengyang asked his wife with a smile.

Professor Mu got up and stretched, his brows furrowing slightly: "It's alright, but it doesn't feel as comfortable as the massage Xiao Lin gave me. You call yourself a professor of traditional Chinese medicine, but you're not as good as my student!"

"Hey, hey, Mu Cuixia, you'd better explain yourself clearly. What do you mean I'm not as good as your student? If you want to say something else, I won't argue, but I've studied traditional Chinese medicine my whole life. Even if I didn't specialize in massage, I'm still not someone a young person can compare to. Besides, your student isn't even studying medicine. He came to see you, and you're still making me angry."

Professor Li clearly didn't believe his wife's words, thinking she was just arguing with him.

"Why would I lie to you? It's true that my student made me feel more comfortable. Don't underestimate him. My student has a family tradition of this skill, and he also reads books on the subject regularly. How could he not be as good as you?"

Professor Mu disagreed, arguing that she was the one who had personally experienced it and therefore had the most right to speak.

Upon hearing that it was a family heirloom, Professor Li's expression became slightly more serious. Even he had to admit that some skills were indeed hidden among ordinary people.

"real or fake?"

"Why would I lie to you? It's perfect timing. My student is feeling a bit weak. Go over and take his pulse. He's been a great help these past few days," Professor Mu said.

Although she didn't say anything, she was grateful for the massages Lin Mo had given her these past two days. That's why she immediately thought of Lin Mo whenever something good happened.

Although the elderly couple often bickered, she had great confidence in her husband's medical skills and believed he was definitely not a mediocre professor.

Although he may not be at the level of a national-level expert, he is still considered a prominent figure in the Chinese medicine community, especially in Jiangning. Many leaders within the system have sought his treatment, so his medical skills are beyond question.

Lin Mo had just returned to his dormitory when he received a message from Miss Yuan, informing him that the item had been checked and confirmed to be genuine, and that the person wanted to buy it at auction price on the spot.

However, she didn't sell it, and kept the items for herself. She asked him if he had any more, saying she would take them all if he did, and also asked him to send her his bank card number.

He wasn't too surprised that Miss Yuan wanted to buy it herself, since he had considered this possibility before coming, knowing that she was his biggest customer.

However, he also mentioned that the remaining one had been reserved by Emperor Ruyan, which infuriated Miss Yuan, who jumped up and down in anger.

Faced with the furious Miss Yuan, he was so frightened that he quickly said he had something to attend to, hung up the phone, and sent her his bank card number as a favor, as he still wanted the money.

Before he could even catch his breath, there was a knock on the door.

"teacher?"

Lin Mo opened the door and saw Professor Mu and her husband standing there. "Yes, didn't we say earlier that we'd have him take your pulse and help you regulate your body?"

Upon hearing this, Lin Mo quickly invited the two into the house: "Thank you for your trouble, Professor Li."

He poured them both a glass of water, as one should be polite.

"It's nothing, I should thank you. I heard you massaged your teacher twice and the results were pretty good. Is it a family tradition?" Li Chengyang took the water and looked his wife, his student, up and down. He couldn't believe that she knew massage, let alone that her skills were so good.

"Of course, but it's not really a family tradition. I only learned it from my grandfather for a couple of days, and the rest I figured out on my own," Lin Mo said, not afraid of revealing anything. His grandfather was gone, so what else could he do?

Upon hearing this, Li Chengyang nodded, at least without becoming arrogant or complacent.

"Give me your hand, let me see."

Lin Mo obediently extended his right hand, and Li Chengyang took his pulse, but his expression immediately became unpredictable.

As the saying goes, it's not the smiling face of a traditional Chinese medicine doctor that's scary, it's the sullen expression on their face. If they're flipping through a book while taking your pulse, then you're doomed; they might be flipping through the book with the King of Hell.

If he flips it over, you're alive; if he doesn't, then the King of Hell has flipped it over.

Lin Mo was so frightened that his heart pounded faster and he started trembling.

"Switch to the other hand!"

Lin Mo swallowed hard, extended his left hand, and asked somewhat nervously, "Professor Li, am I alright?"

"That's strange. Have you eaten anything unusual lately?" Li Chengyang asked, frowning.

Lin Mo thought about his eating habits over the past week, then shook his head: "No, I just ate in my school dormitory. Does spicy chicken noodles count?"

Li Chengyang:
Is this kid stupid? Is this what he meant?
"I'm asking if you've taken any kidney-tonifying medicine. Your pulse is strange. Your body was quite deficient before, with qi deficiency, spleen deficiency, and kidney deficiency, but recently it seems like your body has recovered somewhat, especially your kidneys. The rest are still deficient. Do you have a girlfriend?" Li Chengyang asked.

Before he could even speak, Professor Mu said, "Yes, she's quite pretty!"

"Yes, that's right. We can't see each other every day now that school has started, no wonder your kidney energy has improved. Be careful to moderate your intake in the future. Although your kidney energy has recovered somewhat, it's still weak!"

"Okay, add me on WeChat, and I'll write you a prescription in a bit. You can then go to the Traditional Chinese Medicine hospital to get the medicine."

Lin Mo:
It must be said that skilled traditional Chinese medicine practitioners are quite remarkable, as they even know about the changes in the organs inside the body.

But was his improved kidney energy due to his breakup with his girlfriend? That's thanks to his Yang-boosting exercises!
But he can't say he doesn't have a girlfriend, otherwise how can he explain that his kidneys are sometimes good and sometimes bad? Wouldn't that expose him?

In Professor Li's eyes, his lack of self-control while with his girlfriend, coupled with his irregular lifestyle, led to qi deficiency, spleen deficiency, and kidney deficiency. However, because school has recently started and he can't indulge himself every day, his kidney qi has recovered somewhat, but the rest are still deficient, creating a perfect closed loop.

Seeing the pained expression on Lin Mo's face, Professor Li couldn't help but ask, "What's wrong? Is something the problem?"

Lin Mo: (￣▽￣)d

"No, absolutely right! You're a miracle doctor!"

Professor Li: <(￣︶￣)> (Hands on hips, smug)
