The Old Master Ye and Hou Bin Ye did not stay here long but returned to the room that had been arranged for them. There wasn't much left in the afternoon, just a closing ceremony. Therefore, all participants were required to attend.
"Father, why didn't you let me ask Uncle about how to treat this Yin Deficiency Death Vessel" In their room, Hou Bin Ye looked at The Old Master Ye with a puzzled expression and asked.
“Hou Bin, although our relationship with your uncle is close and we have deep ties with the Xiao family, when your grandfather changed back to the surname Ye, our families were already separated. Your younger brother was adopted into the Xiao family because Grandfather felt guilty towards them, so there are some questions that can be asked and others that cannot!”
The Old Master Ye thought for a moment after hearing Hou Bin Ye's words before sighing and saying to him.
Back then, even though The Old Master Ye’s father had no choice but to change back to his original surname, once he did so, their family had already severed ties with the Xiao family. Therefore, some medical techniques could not be shared anymore.
"Oh..." Upon hearing what The Old Master Ye said, Hou Bin Ye nodded thoughtfully.
“Alright, from now on don't ask your uncle about any secret formulas!” Seeing that Hou Bin Ye understood, The Old Master Ye patted him on the shoulder and said.
And because of this reason, back then The Old Master Ye never asked Xiao Yu about Tremor Needles. Although his father was troubled by it for life, he didn’t even mention it once, while before leaving to explore the deep sea, The Old Master Ye had told him that if Xiao Yu did not bring up the matter himself, Hou Yang Ye could not ask a single question.
Only when Xiao Yu took the initiative to teach Hou Yang Ye Tremor Needles and tested them on himself did The Old Master Ye allow Hou Yang Ye to become his disciple. As such, Hou Yang Ye’s needle techniques would not be passed haphazardly to the Ye family; otherwise it would be considered an act of betraying one's teacher.
The reason wasn’t that The Old Master Ye didn't want to learn, but rather if Xiao Yu did not teach proactively, they wouldn't dare learn. If Hou Yang Ye hadn't been made a disciple of Xiao Yu’s back then, there would have been no issue in him passing the Tremor Needles after being taught by Xiao Yu.
But The Old Master Ye feared that he might not be able to resist learning them and thus had thought to make Hou Yang Ye a disciple of Xiao Yu's. Partly it was also to completely cut off his desire to learn Tremor Needles from Hou Yang Ye, no matter what surname Hou Yang Ye bore, he would always remain The Old Master Ye’s son. Thus, he could not ruin Hou Yang Ye's life just for the sake of learning this needle technique.
Actually, if Hou Yang Ye hadn't become Xiao Yu's disciple, it was entirely possible to learn them. But before receiving permission from the Xiao family, he wouldn’t dare do so. This was his last sign of respect towards the Xiao family in honor of his father.
"However, it's good now that your second brother has become a disciple of Xiao Yu. And my master uncle also lets Tian Lin and Tian Peng study under him! In fact, this is no different from both our families learning together!"
But then, a look of joy appeared on Old Yue's face as he said, even though he couldn't learn himself, his descendants acquiring the knowledge was enough. He didn't aim to create a great reputation with the Trembling Needle technique; he merely wanted to fulfill his father’s last wish since his father had been preoccupied with the Trembling Needle of the Five Elements before passing away.
Old Yue and Yue Hongbin were chatting on the sofa while waiting for the afternoon exchange session to begin.
After Old Yue and Yue Hongbin left, Xiao Yu also sat down on the couch to close his eyes and rest. Although it seemed like he was just resting, in reality, his heart couldn't calm down as he pondered over Dai Ruxin's condition.
At two o'clock in the afternoon, Xiao Yu opened his eyes punctually, walked out of the room, and called Old Yue along with the others to head towards the conference room.
"Old Yue, Master Xiao…."
"Master Xiao…"
When they saw Xiao Yu enter, these elderly doctors all stood up to greet him. Compared to when he first arrived, the treatment Xiao Yu received now was vastly different.
Back then, not only did no one acknowledge him, but because of his youth, even though everyone knew he was the head of the Xiao family, they would discuss the Xiao family without mentioning anything about Xiao Yu. However, now that Xiao Yu had arrived, these elderly doctors all stood up and greeted him.
At this point, in the eyes of these elderly doctors, age no longer mattered; instead, they placed Xiao Yu at an equal or even higher level than themselves.
This was the benefit brought by strength. In their eyes, regardless of one's status, only those with exceptional medical skills could earn respect.
The afternoon mainly involved the board members on stage giving speeches about summarizing the current state of domestic medicine and its future development. After these speeches, this edition of the national Traditional Chinese Medicine and Western Medicine exchange conference came to a close.
The hotel rooms weren't vacated because most doctors here were from out-of-town, and during their stay in Beijing for the conference, they hadn’t gone out anywhere else except for attending the event. So these rooms would still be at their disposal for three more days, allowing them to take a stroll around if they wished. This could be considered one of the benefits of participating in this exchange meeting.
Xiao Yu didn't leave after the meeting, but was intercepted by a group of old traditional Chinese medicine practitioners to exchange insights about TCM. Chen Lao and Wang Lao also came over and joined in.
"What Nine Yin Death Vessel Disease" When Chen Lao and Wang Lao arrived, these masters of traditional Chinese medicine started talking about the scene when Xiao Yu treated Old Dai's granddaughter at noon, mentioning her illness. When they heard that Dai Ruxin was ill due to the Nine Yin Death Vessel Disease, both Chen Lao and Wang Lao’s faces showed a shocked expression as they exclaimed.
Their family’s classic texts had records of the Nine Yin Death Vessel Disease, which were detailed in their most important classics. Symptoms and outward manifestations of this disease were meticulously recorded, but no cure was mentioned. The part about treatment methods only contained a short sentence that was roughly similar between both families.
"Nine Yin Death Vessel Disease: an ominous illness where human effort cannot go against heaven’s will. To treat it, one must seek divine assistance!" This is what the classic text had written regarding the cure for Nine Yin Death Vessel Disease.
Compared to other diseases, which have pages of various treatment methods recorded in them, this entry seemed rather meager. However, even so, it was still placed at the beginning of their classics.
This is why they were so shocked when hearing that Dai Ruxin had Nine Yin Death Vessel Disease.
When they treated Dai Ruxin initially, like that old TCM practitioner, they didn’t think about this disease. Although patients would feel cold all over when suffering from it, other symptoms differed greatly. Therefore, after checking the record, both of them shook their heads and skipped over it.
But now hearing Xiao Yu saying Dai Ruxin had Nine Yin Death Vessel Disease was shocking to them; they were also filled with doubts because Dai Ruxin’s symptoms didn’t match those of Nine Yin Death Vessel Disease. However, what Xiao Yu said made them question their beliefs and look at him skeptically.
"Master Xiao, as far as I know, the symptoms of Nine Yin Death Vessel Disease aren't like this!" Chen Lao asked with his doubts.
"Indeed, Dai Ruxin's illness has mutated! But its core is still the Nine Yin Death Vessel Disease!" Xiao Yu nodded after hearing them and explained.
"Ugh..." Chen Lao and Wang Lao exchanged glances and nodded. As the most renowned masters of traditional Chinese medicine, they naturally understood what mutation meant. However, they had only read about this illness in their classics without seeing any patients with it personally.
Therefore, they didn't know its internal symptoms either, so even after reading the classics, all they knew was that different people would display different symptoms and wouldn’t be able to diagnose Dai Ruxin’s condition accurately.
"Ah, what a pity! Almost no one with Nine Yin Death Vessel Disease lives past eighteen!" Chen Lao pondered for a moment and nodded.
"Yes! Old Dai, your child is already this grown up; you shouldn't waste time on traditional Chinese medicine anymore. You should travel to famous mountains and rivers, as well as renowned temples and monasteries. If you're lucky enough to meet some reclusive high-level practitioners who are willing to take her in as their disciple, there might still be a chance for the child. Otherwise..."
After hearing what Mr. Chen said, Mr. Wang thought about it for a moment and then said with a helpless shake of his head.
Mr. Wang and Mr. Chen were talking to Old Dai, who had been silent beside them. According to the classics, such illnesses cannot be cured by doctors; one can only hope to find high-level practitioners who might be able to save her. However, these kinds of high-level practitioners are rare and hard to come by—some people spend their entire lives without finding any.
Old Dai and the group of old TCM experts felt a sudden chill in their hearts when they heard what Mr. Wang said; with shocked expressions, they looked at each other. They then recalled Xiao Yu's words about taking Old Dai’s granddaughter as his disciple—could it be that Xiao Yu is one such high-level practitioner With this thought, they all turned to look at Xiao Yu.
Under the gazes of these old TCM experts, Xiao Yu remained calm and unaffected; he didn't say a word, acting as if he hadn’t heard anything.
Seeing that all the old TCM masters were looking at Xiao Yu, Mr. Wang and Mr. Chen couldn't help but show puzzled expressions on their faces; they had no idea why everyone was staring at him.
"Junior Brother, let's go! Otherwise my senior sister-in-law will be waiting for us!" Old Yue stepped forward to say to Xiao Yu.
Although Old Yue’s spouse did prepare the meal back home, she wouldn't have been so prompt. This was just an excuse; although Xiao Yu didn’t express any dissatisfaction, Old Yue feared that they might ask him questions he couldn’t answer. Therefore, he came up with this excuse to call Xiao Yu out.
"Honorable masters, we’ll take our leave now and hope to exchange experiences with you another time!" Knowing Old Yue's intentions, Xiao Yu nodded respectfully at the TCM experts before speaking.
Upon hearing Xiao Yu’s words and seeing that it was indeed not yet mealtime, these old TCM experts didn't want to point this out and thus returned a respectful nod to him.
Mr. Wang and Mr. Chen still weren’t clear why everyone was looking at Xiao Yu but they also felt awkward about stopping them from asking questions, so they respectfully nodded to Xiao Yu too.
In their minds, if Xiao Yu could diagnose conditions that even the experts like Old Song couldn't handle, it wouldn't be impossible for him to detect the nine-yin death pulse. As long as his ancestors or he himself had seen such a condition before, they believed he would have been able to make this diagnosis. After all, the Xiao family was once regarded as one of the most influential families in traditional Chinese medicine, and their ancestral doctors were even imperial physicians with access to superior medical classics from the palace. Therefore, it didn’t seem strange to them that Xiao Yu could diagnose Dai Yuxin’s condition.for a moment and first called Wu Ting to ask what exactly happened."Mr. Wu, hello, hello...........
