The best way to deal with someone who won’t admit the truth is to lay the evidence right in front of their eyes.
Qin Jiang brought Jia Shan into the pharmacy for a checkup. The other test results weren’t out yet, but just from drawing blood, Qin Jiang was already shocked.
Qin Jiang held up the three tubes of blood he had drawn and showed them to Jia Shan and his followers.
These men and women had limited education, so they couldn’t see anything wrong at all.
“Strange, why does the Venerable’s blood look like milk?”
“Yeah, our blood is all red, but the Venerable’s blood looks milky white.”
“No wonder he’s the Venerable. Could it be that his cultivation has reached a level the rest of us can’t even dream of? Even his blood is different from ours.”
Qin Jiang had brought out these three tubes of blood specifically to make these people wake up and see the truth.
But who would have thought that after seeing the blood, instead of noticing anything abnormal, these people actually started brainwashing themselves.
Qin Jiang really couldn’t hold it in anymore. He said to these men and women, “The reason his blood looks like this isn’t because his cultivation is so impressive. It proves he has high blood lipids. Do you understand?”
“These milky white things are fat. In medicine, we call this kind of blood ‘chylous blood,’ also known as lipemic blood.”
“Let me put it this way — if you tried to donate this kind of blood, they wouldn’t even accept it.”
The moment Qin Jiang said this, Jia Shan’s expression turned incredibly ugly.
The men and women who had just been flattering him a moment ago didn’t know what to say anymore.
This was way too humiliating!
They had thought this was a miracle, the result of Jia Shan’s years of cultivation. But it turned out to be a disease instead.
After the demonstration, Qin Jiang handed the three tubes of blood to Zou Moli and told her to take them for testing.
Qin Jiang then asked again, “Let me ask you one more time — do you usually eat a lot of meat?”
This time, the men and women behind Jia Shan didn’t rush to speak up for him. Instead, they all looked at him with doubtful, suspicious eyes.
After all, the chylous blood Qin Jiang had just shown them was way too frightening.
That wasn’t blood at all — it was practically milk, or oil!
Many of them had seen slabs of white pork fat when they were children.
The blood in those tubes just now was mostly identical to pork lard.
Jia Shan gritted his teeth and said, “Didn’t I just say it? I don’t eat meat. Eating meat harms your spiritual merit.”
After saying this, Jia Shan even put his palms together in a pretentious show of piety.
The viewers in the livestream chat couldn’t stay calm when they heard Jia Shan’s answer.
“Seriously? This guy can fool other people all he wants, but is he really fooling himself too? His blood has literally turned into oil, and he’s still putting on a show?”
“I was shocked when I saw his blood just now. I can’t even imagine how that kind of blood flows through blood vessels. Can it even flow at all?”
“Other people squirt blood when they’re cut — this guy squirts oil. Hahaha, just thinking about it is hilarious.”
Qin Jiang hadn’t expected Jia Shan to be this stubborn either.
Did he really have to shove the evidence right in his face before Jia Shan would tell the truth?
Qin Jiang said calmly, “Fine. Since you say you don’t eat meat, then you don’t eat meat.”
“But I have a duty to remind you — if your blood lipids are too high, there’s a very high chance you’ll develop complications.”
“Things like myocardial infarction, cerebral infarction, acute pancreatitis, and so on.”
Jia Shan nodded and said, “I’m well aware of all the things you mentioned, but I have the gods’ protection, so I won’t get any serious illness.”
“Dr. Qin, I actually just came here this time for a simple checkup. As long as you can help me solve my stomachache problem, that’s all I need.”
Qin Jiang was amused by Jia Shan.
It seemed Jia Shan was truly panicking now. He was terrified that Qin Jiang would reveal even more shocking information, and then the men and women behind him would be harder to fool.
You see, these men and women were all Jia Shan’s cash cows. So his sacred image in their minds absolutely could not be shaken!
At this point, Jia Shan was even starting to regret it.
If he had known Qin Jiang would be so blunt and examine him so thoroughly, he wouldn’t have come here for treatment.
Unfortunately, there’s no regret medicine sold in this world.
Just then, Zou Moli came over with the latest test report.
Qin Jiang only skimmed Jia Shan’s test report, and instantly the way he looked at him changed.
“Your triglyceride level is actually 63?”
“Holy crap, the fact that you’re still alive and well right now is genuinely a miracle.”
Jia Shan was completely confused.
“Sorry, Dr. Qin, I don’t understand any of these medical terms you’re using. Can I ask what this level of 63 means?”
Qin Jiang explained patiently, “A normal person’s triglyceride level is below 1.7. Yours is 63 right now. Think about it yourself — do you think this counts as serious?”
A bitter smile appeared on Jia Shan’s face.
He might not understand medicine, but he understood math.
The difference between these two numbers was more than thirty times. That meant his body had already raised a red flag — he was in serious danger!
Jia Shan finally started to panic a little.
He quickly asked, “Dr. Qin, so with a situation like mine, is there still a chance to recover my health?”
At this point, nothing else mattered to Jia Shan. Staying alive was the only thing that mattered.
He couldn’t care less about his Venerable identity anymore. All he wanted now was to get an answer from Qin Jiang as soon as possible.
But who would have thought — this time, it was Qin Jiang’s turn to say something that made Jia Shan eat his own words.
Qin Jiang said calmly, “Didn’t you say you don’t eat meat? If you don’t eat meat, then you don’t need to worry too much. Your blood lipids should come down pretty quickly.”
“Just keep exercising regularly and take good care of yourself.”
These words made Jia Shan panic immediately.
“Just taking care of myself isn’t enough! You need to prescribe me medication! Look, my blood lipids are already this high — won’t this cause other diseases?”
“Just like the ones you mentioned earlier.”
Seeing that Qin Jiang was still looking at him with a smile, saying nothing, Jia Shan immediately caved.
He said to Qin Jiang, “I’m sorry, Dr. Qin. I lied to you earlier. I actually do eat meat — and I can’t go a single meal without it.”
“I know eating like this will definitely cause problems, but I just can’t control my mouth.”
“Dr. Qin, please just prescribe me some medication.”
Hearing Jia Shan say this, the group of men and women behind him were instantly dumbfounded.
They felt that Jia Shan’s tall, glorious image was gradually crumbling before their eyes.
Eating meat was the one thing they absolutely could not accept.
Especially under Jia Shan’s advocacy, the whole group had been eating only vegetables for over a month straight. They had all become sallow and gaunt, and their eyes lit up at the sight of any food.
Especially one person who had said earlier that he had reached a new breakthrough in his vegetarian practice.
Now, whenever he smelled meat, he would feel nauseous and want to throw up.
Actually, Qin Jiang really wanted to tell him that this symptom meant his liver was damaged, and he needed to go to the hospital for a checkup and treatment right away.
