Landlady who likes to hoard land

After joking with Wang Chengyu, Xie Lao asked Wang Chengyu to take his pulse, extending his hand with his palm facing up.

Wang Chengyu calmly placed her fingers on it.

Her pulse diagnosis skills have become increasingly refined; as long as it's not a difficult or complicated case, there's no problem.

Now that she has such a skilled traditional Chinese medicine doctor like Xie Lao to guide her, she must seize the opportunity.

Judging from his pulse, Mr. Xie is in good health; the weakening of his cardiopulmonary function is a phenomenon unique to his age.

Surprisingly, the pulse seemed similar to that of Elder Wang, suggesting a possible heart injury. Unsure, I switched to the other hand to continue taking the pulse.

Old Xie didn't say anything, just smiled and let her be.

After a while, Wang Chengyu stopped.

"Chengyu, how's my health? Will I live to be a hundred?" Old Xie asked jokingly.

"Mr. Xie, you are in good health and could easily live to be 120."

Everything else is fine, except for your heart meridian, which was injured in your early years. Although you have tried your best to take care of it, it is an irreversible injury, and you often experience chest tightness, shortness of breath, and palpitations.

I'm not sure if I'm right.

Wang Chengyu looked at Elder Xie with slight nervousness, seeking his confirmation.

"Chengyu, not bad, you can even tell that. I did suffer irreversible damage in my early years, which left me with aftereffects."

Old Xie looked at Wang Chengyu with satisfaction.

"Can I see it?"

"Of course, no problem," Old Xie readily lifted his shirt, revealing a round scar near his heart on his left chest. This was no ordinary scar.

Wang Chengyu frowned slightly, reached out and covered it with spiritual energy, probing inside.

"It's a gunshot wound! This is no ordinary accident!"

Words slip out unconsciously.

"Cheng Yu, you even noticed this. Your skills are truly impressive. Ordinary people wouldn't recognize a gunshot wound."

Your master is truly amazing! I'd love to meet that reclusive master someday!

Wang Chengyu: You can forget about reclusive masters.

"Chengyu, to be honest, this gunshot wound saved the commander's life back when I was by his side. It was worth it."

Hearing this, Wang Chengyu was shocked. Old Xie was actually someone who followed the leader. It meant that he had taken a bullet for the leader. In this peaceful era, are there still fighting and killing?

Terrible!

I sincerely admire Elder Xie. His willingness to sacrifice himself to shield someone from a bullet shows that the person was someone he respected and deserved his help.

Wang Chengyu believes that Xie Lao is also a respectable person. Sacrificing oneself to save others may have been common in the past, but it is very rare in today's society.

"Don't move, I'll help you clear it, it'll be fine soon."

She wanted to alleviate Xie Lao's pain, so she stopped thinking about it and focused on using her spiritual energy to clear the blocked meridians.

Old Xie's gunshot wound is much harder to repair than Old Wang's. Old Wang's condition was critical because there was a blockage; removing the blockage would solve the problem.

Master Xie's condition involves damaged meridians, which requires repair, making the process quite complicated.

She was patient and repaired it little by little.

Old Xie was shocked to discover that Wang Chengyu was using his qi to clear his almost blocked meridians. He was astonished because he had almost died from an injury years ago, and it was Old Chen who used qigong to clear his meridians and save his life. Therefore, Old Chen could be considered his savior.

However, Cheng Yu's qigong was clearly more powerful than Chen Lao's. He only felt a warm, gentle stream gradually clearing and repairing his body, without any discomfort; on the contrary, he felt very comfortable.

Looking at Cheng Yu, she didn't seem to be struggling much.

This reignited his curiosity about Wang Chengyu's master. Just how capable must someone be to teach such a talented disciple?

Wang Chengyu stopped when the blockage was about 70-80% complete, which was already against the norm. If she had completely fixed it, it would have been too incredible, and she might have been secretly taken away tomorrow.

The moment she stopped, a voice she hadn't heard in a long time echoed in her mind.

[Congratulations, Cheng Yu! For your compassionate healing skills, you have earned 10,000 merit points.]

Old Master Xie actually has 10,000 merit points, which may be related to his medical skills being able to save many people.

Wang Chengyu vaguely felt that the greater the social achievements of the people she helped, the more merit points she might receive.

"Putting my mind together," Wang Chengyu said seriously.

"Alright, Elder Xie, you should feel much better now and can continue to contribute to the cause of traditional Chinese medicine. But this is my limit."

Wang Chengyu wiped the fine sweat from his forehead, feigning exhaustion.

"Chengyu, how can this old man ever thank you enough!"

Old Xie was so grateful to Wang Chengyu. The aftereffects of the gunshot wound weren't a big problem, but being able to survive was very torturous.

He now feels that he can breathe easily, and the chest tightness and shortness of breath that used to bother him are gone. It's such a pleasant surprise!

"Thank you, sir. I really want a gift to express my gratitude. After my mother finishes chemotherapy, I will bring my parents over. Could you please prescribe a medicine for them to help them recover?"

Wang Chengyu possesses a skill that he can learn quickly, is proficient in various medical books, understands various pulse patterns, and is also quite good at moxibustion. Moreover, he is adept at using spiritual energy to unblock meridians.

However, she didn't know how to prescribe the most essential part of traditional Chinese medicine, which is to prescribe medicine according to the symptoms. Traditional Chinese medicine is profound and complex, and it cannot be mastered by simply memorizing facts.

This requires practice and experience. She didn't plan to learn it; it would be too time-consuming.

Therefore, she hopes that Mr. Xie can help her regulate her parents' health.

Faced with Wang Chengyu's request, Old Xie waved his hand.

"It's just a quick pulse check, it's nothing, it's not a thank-you gift. Just think of another one."

"Old Xie, clearing the meridians is a big deal for you, but it's just something I can do easily. My parents' matter is a small matter for you, but it's a big deal for me."

If we each play to our strengths, then there's no such thing as a big or small problem.

Wang Chengyu spoke very sincerely, but Xie Lao still felt that she had been taken advantage of, and he didn't want to force her to give him a gift.

"Okay, you're really stubborn, I can't argue with you."

"Cheng Yu, how did you diagnose my heart meridian problem from my pulse? You must know this is an old injury; even some of my disciples couldn't see it."

The two then discussed the identification and knowledge of pulse diagnosis in Traditional Chinese Medicine. The more Xie asked, the more surprised he became. He discovered that Wang Chengyu had a particularly solid foundation in Traditional Chinese Medicine and a very broad knowledge base. No matter what he asked, she could answer it and even apply what she learned to other situations, which was much better than his students.

Before they knew it, the sky was gradually darkening, and the two of them finally came to their senses.

"Chengyu, it's such a pity you're not studying medicine. Are you really not considering it?"

Mr. Xie had asked Wang Chengyu this question several times, but Wang Chengyu refused. Mr. Xie was not giving up and still wanted to persuade her.

"Professor Xie, a person's energy is limited. No matter what I do, I will strive for the development of traditional Chinese medicine."

As she said, Wang Chengyu didn't have the energy to consult doctors and treat patients. She believed that their country did not lack good doctors, but rather the recognition of the environment and the trust of the people.

She prefers to popularize knowledge about traditional Chinese medicine and increase public trust in it.
