Chapter 193: Chapter 192 You Cannot Learn

(Thank you, Liangliang DouDou, for your generous support. If I remember correctly, this isn’t your first time supporting us; thank you!!)

"Huh?"

The three people in the operating room, two nurses and Xiao Yi, were all stunned. The nurses’ faces were filled with shock. They knew all too well Dr. Zhang’s medical skills and his position in the hospital. They hadn’t expected Dr. Zhang to kneel before this man, asking to be his disciple!

Could this person’s medical skills really be so magical?

Although the two nurses had just witnessed the strange occurrences during Xiao Yi’s acupuncture, they did not know the astounding effects of those few needles—only Dr. Zhang knew how miraculously fast they could heal injuries!

"Dr. Zhang, stop joking around. I’m not qualified to be your teacher. Please stand up."

It took a while for Xiao Yi to regain his composure before he replied with a wry smile.

"Divine Doctor Xiao, I’m not joking. I truly wish to learn from you and save more lives."

Dr. Zhang looked at Xiao Yi with a stern and stubborn expression, a hopeful gleam in his eyes. "If I could learn the technique you just used, it could reduce the mortality rate by at least 80 percent each year!"

"Dr. Zhang, listen to me— that technique, fundamentally, you cannot learn it."

Hearing Dr. Zhang’s words, while moved by his dedication, Xiao Yi could not help but give a wry, helpless smile. It was a beautiful thought to learn such a medical technique and reduce so many deaths, but how could he know that this technique was not so easily learned? If it were teachable, he wouldn’t mind sharing it with others.

This technique fundamentally involves using True Qi to repair injuries, similar to those scenes in TV shows and novels where placing a hand on someone’s back can heal them instantly—it’s based on the same principle. However, in reality, forcing one’s True Qi into someone else’s body can cause severe harm and cannot possibly heal injuries. Even if the True Qi originates from the same source, differing physical constitutions make healing another person utterly unfeasible.

The Divine Ghost Needle Technique then provides a method of transformation, allowing one’s True Qi to potentially heal anyone.

Of course, this was his understanding based on his current grasp of the Seven Needles Technique, and this understanding had only become clearer during the process of saving Wang Xiaohu. It turned out that his knowledge of this technique had always been somewhat vague.

This Needle Technique, compared to techniques like the Taiyi Needle, is much harder to learn. How could it be easy to master?

The prerequisite alone, which Dr. Zhang fails to meet, is having ample True Qi to possibly implement this technique.

"Ah? Why? Is it because I lack talent? It doesn’t matter. Diligence can compensate for what talent cannot. I’ll put in the extra effort!"

Dr. Zhang lifted his head, surprised, then said resolutely.

"That’s not exactly the reason... well, it sort of is. Dr. Zhang, you’ve heard of True Qi, right? This Needle Technique uses True Qi. Without any True Qi, you simply can’t learn this technique."

Xiao Yi, seeing Dr. Zhang’s stubborn look, sighed and reluctantly explained.

"Is... is that really true?"

Dr. Zhang looked at Xiao Yi in disbelief. "Are you saying, those legends about True Qi in novels are true?"

The two nurses also stared at Xiao Yi with wide eyes, astonished and curious.

"It’s somewhat true. The True Qi in reality isn’t as magical as it’s described in novels."

After some thought, Xiao Yi nodded at them.

"Alright, Xiaohu is fine now, right? They must be anxious waiting outside, let’s go out."

Seeing the astonished, incredulous expressions on their faces, Xiao Yi slowly got up from the ground and said to the three of them.

"It’s really a pity, but given the chance, I would still like to discuss Traditional Chinese Medicine with Divine Doctor Xiao more. Divine Doctor Xiao’s medical skills have truly been an eye-opener for me and have allowed me to see the wonders of Chinese medicine truly,"

Dr. Zhang came back to his senses, his eyes filled with immense loss, but soon, he pushed that feeling away and looked at Xiao Yi sincerely, earnestly saying.

"Definitely."

Xiao Yi also sincerely smiled at Dr. Zhang. He had a very good impression of him and was willing to teach him some basic theories of Chinese medicine if the opportunity arose.

"How is it?"

No sooner had the door to the operating room opened than Xiao Yi and his companions were immediately surrounded by a crowd, with Wang Qingqing, Li Xiaomei, and Wang Dawei at the forefront, all wearing tense expressions. Behind them, the relatives of other patients, also anxious, gathered around. They all wanted to see the condition of the patient treated by the two doctors. If this patient was treated successfully, it would indicate that their medical skills were exceedingly proficient, significantly increasing the chances of their own children being cured.

"Dr. Zhang is highly skilled, and he’s past the critical period. Now, it’s all about healing peacefully," Xiao Yi said, seeing the tense expressions of the three persons.

He intentionally tensed his expression before giving Wang Qingqing and the others an OK gesture and smiling.

"That’s wonderful!"

Upon hearing Xiao Yi’s words, Wang Qingqing suddenly jumped up, screaming, tears welling up in her eyes.

Li Xiaomei and Wang Dawei, upon hearing Xiao Yi’s words, also completely relaxed, tears welling up in their eyes as well.

"Auntie, I told you, Xiaohu will surely be fine. He will be alright," Wang Qingqing said after hopping around a bit and then turned to hug Li Xiaomei excitedly.

"It’s good that nothing’s wrong, it’s good that nothing’s wrong," Li Xiaomei murmured, smiling and continuously shedding tears of joy.

"Dr. Zhang, thank you! Thank you!"

While Wang Dawei, although deeply excited inside, did not forget to thank the doctor. Having heard from Xiao Yi that it was Dr. Zhang who had cured his son, he continuously bowed his thanks.

Although he had often heard from his wife about Xiao Yi’s superb medical skills, he had never seen it with his own eyes. Therefore, he had unshakeable faith in Xiao Yi’s words. He also felt that Xiao Yi was probably just assisting in there, and the main person must have been the extraordinary-looking Dr. Zhang.

"It’s not..."

"Dr. Zhang, please save my son, save my son!"

"Dr. Zhang, please save my son, I beg you!"

"..."

Just as Dr. Zhang was about to explain to Wang Dawei, grateful as he was, he hadn’t even finished speaking when he was abruptly interrupted by a crowd. The parents behind him, each one grasping his hand and looking pleadingly at him, and even one elderly person had already knelt down there, clinging to his legs, leaving him no chance to finish his sentence.
