- Chapter 40 - Black Jade Discontinuity Ointment
After Qin Jiang’s explanation, everyone had a sudden moment of understanding.
“So that’s how it is! No wonder Mr. Wang never got electrocuted before. It was just calluses on his fingers, pure luck.”
As an electrician, Wang Fa often did rough, heavy work.
Whether hauling cables or moving electrical boxes, it was physically demanding and tough on the fingers.
Over years of this, calluses had formed on Wang Fa’s fingers.
Because calluses have high electrical resistance, whenever Wang Fa pinched or touched wires with his fingers, the current flowing through his body was present, but very small.
This was why Wang Fa could feel a tingling, numbing sensation, yet remained unharmed.
It was also how he could make a light bulb glow.
Wang Fa was still somewhat skeptical.
“Then why did my heart feel so comfortable every time I touched electricity?”
“Like I said, that’s a sequela from the time you were electrocuted and thrown back.”
“The heart is a relatively fragile and sensitive organ. After you were shocked last time, it affected your heartbeat, causing conditions like arrhythmia and palpitations.”
“And every time you touch electricity, the tiny current passing through your body also reaches your heart, affecting it again.”
“This makes you feel as if it’s comfortable, like a heart massage. But actually, this sensation isn’t normal, and I don’t recommend you use it as treatment.”
In fact, ordinary people have bioelectricity in their bodies, and it’s quite important for the entire human system.
Wang Fa’s long-term contact with electricity meant external currents interfered with his bioelectricity, potentially causing unknown harm to his body.
Seeing that Wang Fa still looked half-convinced, half-doubting, Qin Jiang simply said bluntly, “If you still don’t believe me, then there’s nothing more I can do.”
“I can only remind you, before you do such dangerous things again, think more about your family, your friends, think about the people who love you.”
Wang Fa took Qin Jiang’s words to heart.
Just thinking about how he almost died made Wang Fa shudder with fear.
Wang Fa quickly stood up and expressed his gratitude to Qin Jiang.
“Thank you, Doctor Qin. I understand now. There are no such things as special abilities in this world.”
Qin Jiang nodded with satisfaction.
It was good that he realized that.
After all, those two others who thought they had special abilities didn’t end up well.
Qin Jiang pointed towards the payment QR code on the table.
“No need for thanks. Please pay the consultation fee, three thousand two hundred.”
Wang Fa had no objections. He took out his phone and scanned the code to pay.
Qin Jiang had saved his life for just three thousand two hundred; that was incredibly cheap.
Ding.
[System detected that the host was frank with the patient, pointed out the patient’s underlying condition, and greatly assisted the patient. Task Complete.]
[Congratulations to the host for receiving the reward: Black Jade Discontinuity Ointment]
Huh?
Black Jade Discontinuity Ointment!
This kind of medicine actually exists in this world?
Qin Jiang was instantly fully alert.
This was really good stuff. If it was truly like the one described in the novels, wouldn’t he be set for life?
“Doctor Qin, since everything’s fine, we’ll be leaving now.”
Just as Qin Jiang was receiving the knowledge related to the Black Jade Discontinuity Ointment, Wang Fa, who had paid, thanked Qin Jiang and left with his wife and child.
After Wang Fa left, Guo Long and Dong Han also got up and departed.
Gao Yang followed closely, saying he needed to go back and write a feature article, and would also recommend more clients to Qin Jiang.
In an instant, the clinic was left with only Qin Jiang, Liu Yan, and the others again.
Qin Jiang sat in his chair, sipping tea with his eyes closed, absorbing the knowledge about the Black Jade Discontinuity Ointment.
But his actions seemed profound and mysterious to the fans in the live stream.
“What’s Doctor Qin doing? Meditating with his eyes closed?”
“No, I think he’s probably reading a medical book.”
“Stop kidding. Reading a medical book with his eyes closed? You’re not going to say Doctor Qin has X-ray vision, are you?”
“Buddy, do you know there’s something in this world called a memory palace? Doesn’t it strike you as strange? Why is Doctor Qin so young, yet there isn’t a single medical book on his desk?”
After this comment popped up, everyone was stunned.
That seemed true!
When they had visited traditional Chinese medicine clinics before, even the older doctors definitely had an open medical book at hand, let alone the younger ones.
See patients when busy, read books when not.
Why?
Because there’s just too much, and too varied, knowledge to learn in this field of TCM.
You not only have to study the classics left by ancient predecessors but also learn modern medical knowledge.
The most troublesome part is that many ancient texts and medical books contain errors. You must combine your own experience and knowledge to judge which parts of the book are correct and which are wrong.
However, after watching the live stream for so long, they noticed Qin Jiang’s desk was spotlessly clean.
And no matter what illness the patient had, Qin Jiang could almost always treat it!
That was terrifying.
Could it be that Qin Jiang really has a memory palace in his mind?
Just as everyone was thinking this, an old woman supporting an old man walked in from outside.
“Doctor, could you please take a look at my husband? He’s been having a fever lately, sweating profusely, and can’t sleep well at night.”
“It’s worrying me to death. Can you tell me what’s going on?”
Seeing new patients arrive, Qin Jiang opened his eyes, a smile on his face.
But at first glance, Qin Jiang immediately sensed something wasn’t right.
Qin Jiang asked, “Sir, what’s wrong with your leg?”
The old man raised an eyebrow, commanding respect without anger.
“There’s nothing wrong with my leg.”
Qin Jiang frowned. “That can’t be right. Why do I get the feeling there might be something wrong with your leg?”
Qin Jiang reached out to touch the old man’s leg, but the old man swiftly pulled his leg back, his movements surprisingly agile.
“How can you just touch my ‘Iron Leg of Jincheng’ so casually? Are you even a real doctor? Do you know how to diagnose?”
Qin Jiang was taken aback by the old man’s strong reaction.
It’s just checking his leg. Why such a fierce response?
The old woman explained from the side, “My husband is like this. He practices martial arts, a real fanatic.”
“His legs are his prized possessions. He won’t let anyone touch them, says it’s some kind of family secret technique or something.”
Although the old woman sounded like she was complaining, she was actually boasting.
The smile on her face was barely containable.
Qin Jiang couldn’t help but ask, “Is the sir’s ‘Iron Leg’ very famous?”
The old woman became even more excited and quickly said, “Well, you could say he’s a minor internet celebrity. Has over a hundred thousand followers.”
The old man stood with his hands behind his back, his nostrils almost pointing to the sky, and let out a proud “Hmph.”
Qin Jiang was also filled with respect.
If the old man had over a hundred thousand followers, he must genuinely have some real skill.
Qin Jiang didn’t press about checking the leg anymore.
“Sir, please rest your hand here. Let me check your pulse.”
