Chapter 8 The First Display of Medical Skills

Li Tianchen looked relaxed, saying, "The solution is to massage the meridians of the legs with a special technique, and open up the blocked meridians."

People in the ward froze, and it was silent at a time.

Doctor Qing suddenly laughed, "Massage the meridians of the legs? If massage really works, those massage parlors would have been hospitals a long time ago. They would even be more popular than hospitals. Why do doctors exist?" She shook her head while smiling as if she heard a hilarious joke. Then, she ignored Li Tianchen.

"Elder Sun, this is the operation agreement. You need to inform your family as soon as possible. If the agreement is not signed in due time, we won't take the consequences."

Elder Sun took over the operation agreement with shaking hands. His expression was very bitter. "Amputation, I've lived a long time. In the end, I should get an amputation and lose my legs." He thought.

Li Tianchen shrugged his shoulders helplessly, thinking, "If no one believes me, I'll convince them with facts."

Then, Li Tianchen went up and moved the quilt on Elder Sun's legs. He rolled up Elder Sun's pants and exposed Elder Sun's two thin legs.

Elder Sun said surprisingly, "Tianchen, what are you doing?"

Li Tianchen said, without raising his head, "I'll give you a massage. Half an hour later, you can get off the bed and walk. Then, you don't have to stay in this lousy hospital which perils the patients' lives but claims that western medicine is better."

Doctor Qin's beautiful face instantly became cold, and she barked, "Who perils the patients' lives? We're in a regular hospital, and all diagnoses are based on scientific proofs. If you make trouble here, please leave immediately."

Li Tianchen's hands were on Elder Sun's legs. He massaged Elder Sun's legs with experienced techniques to open up Elder Sun's meridians. Then, he said without raising his head, "You believe in your scientific proofs, and I believe in my technique. Why don't we make a bet?"

Seeing that Li Tianchen was massaging the legs regardless of others' opinions, Doctor Qin was furious, saying, "What do you want?"

Li TIanchen stopped to raise his head and look at the beautiful female Doctor in front of him. He said with an entertainment, "If Elder Sun can get off the bed and walk freely thirty minutes later, I win. Then, you'll pay for the hospital expenses and inspection fees of Elder Sun these days."

Doctor Qin froze a little, and sneered, "What if he can't get off the bed?"

"I'll pay for all the expenses of Elder Sun." Li Tianchen patted his chest and said.

Li Yong who heard these words changed his expression, thinking, "This little prodigal bastard, Sun Ergou is still a threat, and now he causes trouble on his own. To pay for Elder Sun's all expenses, I can sell the clinic to get the money. But, then my family would struggle to live."

Doctor Qin hung a sarcastic smile, and there was doubt flashing across her beautiful eyes behind spectacles. She asked, "Can you afford the expenses of several hundred thousand yuan?"

Li Tianchen didn't care much, saying, "The clinic of my family worth several hundred thousand yuan."

Li Yong who heard the words trembled and almost fell, thinking, "He's a little bastard. The clinic is what I earned in my whole life."

Elder Sun shook his hands in a hurry, saying, "This... this is not right. How can I let you pay for my treatment? Tianchen, don't be impulsive. Doctor Li, I can't accept your money."

Li Yong, who was very emotional a the time, tried to stand straight by holding the handrail on the bed. He was very embarrassed. He wanted to give Li Tianchen a good beating, but he couldn't say a word when Elder Sun showed his gratitude.

Having glanced at Li Yong's dark face, Doctor Qin suddenly smiled brightly, and raised her hand to look at her watch, saying, "Fine, thirty minutes, right? Start now."

"I hear that they learn the ancestral knowledge of traditional Chinese medicine. Fine, I don't have any urgent business today. It doesn't matter if I stay here for thirty minutes. It's a perfect opportunity to show them the superiority and excellence of western medicine." Doctor Qin thought.

Li Tianchen nodded and immediately focused on Elder Sun's legs. His fingers were moving fast, and he seemed very skilled.

Li Yong, who stood aside, began to open his eyes wide while looking at his son's actions. He couldn't believe what happened and looked shocked. "Such a professional technique... when did this kid learn the trick? And who taught it to him?" He thought.

Doctor Qin's slim eyebrows slightly frowned. Although she didn't understand the true excellence of Li Tianchen's technique, she could still get a hint of something else. "For example, Li Tianchen's technique is very flexible, and he massages specific places of the legs, which are acupoints and meridians. Besides, Li Tianchen's focused momentum should make me feel that he's like a professional doctor who is completely devoted to the process." She thought.

Although Li Tianchen looked like a high school student who was still young, he emitted a momentum which attracted Doctor Qin and made her subconsciously focus on his every move, even a look.

Because the expression of Doctor Qin and Li Yong became serious as time passed by, People in the ward realized that this young man didn't seem to be messing around. At a time, the ward was entirely in silence.

Elder Sun who couldn't feel his legs at all saw that Doctor Qin became so severe, so he couldn't help but be a little excited and have expectations. "Is it possible that Tianchen really has a trick up his sleeves?" He thought.

After a while, Elder Sun felt warmth in his legs, which made him very comfortable. And there was a light blush on his old face.

Suddenly, Elder Sun opened his eyes wide and stretched his legs while shouting.

People were spooked by Elder Sun.

"I'm so comfortable."

After Elder Sun shouted, there was a content smile on his face.

People all took a breath. "The elder really scares us." They thought.

Li Yong also unconsciously wiped his cold sweat. "If Elder Sun couldn't make it, and dies after my son's massage, our family is doomed. Fortunately, his shout is only a false alarm." He thought.

A few minutes later, Li Tianchen stopped, wiping the sweat on his forehead and saying, "All right, Grandpa Sun, you can get off the bed and take a walk."

Elder Sun said surprisingly, "Really?"

"I might feel my legs at the moment, but I've been in bed for days. Suddenly, I need to walk around. I really couldn't believe it. After all, Doctor Qin just said that I need to be amputated because I suffer nerve atrophy and neural sclerosis." Elder Sun thought.

Li Tianchen sat on the bed next to him, thinking, "I'm exhausted. Although I inherited the memories of my ancestor Miracle-working Doctor Li and used this particular technique in the memory to open up the meridians of Elder Sun's legs, my body was too weak to support my activity. During the past thirty minutes, I put a lot of energy to focus on my task."

"You can try to walk around."

Doctor Qin's slim eyebrows slightly frowned. "Although I've changed my impression on Li Tianchen, I don't think his massage could really cure Elder Sun." She thought. Then, she waved at the nurses behind her disapprovingly, saying, "You should help Elder Sun."

"It's impossible to cure Elder Sun's legs in thirty minutes." Doctor Qin thought.

Two nurses went up and held Elder Sun to get off the bed slowly.

Having staggered a few steps, Elder Sun suddenly broke away from the nurses' hands and walked freely in the ward. He choked at a time, saying, "I really can walk, and my legs are fine..."

Doctor Qin was stunned, and she couldn't believe that what happened in front of her eyes was real.

The nurses were also stunned. "We trusted Doctor Qin's diagnosis deeply, but..." They thought.
