Chapter 467: 130: I am Mr. Mog_5
How can someone denigrate their own country so much?
Li Long said: âMiss Ji, youâre mistaken. Traditional Chinese Medicine has been passed down for thousands of years and has benefited countless humans. If Traditional Chinese Medicine were really as bad as you say, wouldnât China have been destroyed long ago?â
Miss Ji laughed lightly, and replied: âIf Traditional Chinese Medicine is really that good, why is it that you canât find a Traditional Chinese Medicine Hospital on every street corner?â The few existing Traditional Chinese Medicine Stores are on the brink of closure.
Western Medicine dominates today, and it is indeed difficult to find large-scale Traditional Chinese Medicine Hospitals in the country.
Li Long frowned slightly, âMiss Ji, what youâre saying is simply unreasonable!â
Miss Ji said: âLi Long, being patriotic is good, but we must be sensible. Do you realize that your suggestion could kill Auntie?â
No matter what, Miss Ji would not believe in Traditional Chinese Medicine. Over the years, all her serious and minor illnesses had been cured by Western Medicine.
She vaguely remembers, when she was very young, she also drank extremely bitter Chinese medicinal soup.
A simple cold can be cured by Western Medicine with just one injection, while Traditional Chinese Medicine would require a week of specifically prepared concoctions for a slow recovery.
This is also why Traditional Chinese Medicine declined so rapidly.
With that, Miss Ji looked at Abner, âMr. Abner, do you still want to consult a Traditional Chinese Medicine doctor?â
Abner pinched his temple, âLet me think a bit more.â
Li Long wanted to say something, but he swallowed his words.
After a while, Abner said: âLi Long, go ahead and get a Traditional Chinese Medicine doctor to give it a try.â
Miss Ji turned pale and was about to speak, but she was stopped by Abnerâs raised hand.
Miss Ji had to shut her mouth with discontent.
Li Long was happy, and replied, âYes, sir.â
The Traditional Chinese Medicine doctor was brought back quickly, an old man in his sixties or seventies with white hair.
Li Long took the initiative to introduce him: âMr. Abner, this is Doctor Wang. Doctor Wang comes from a long line of Traditional Chinese Medicine practitioners. His ancestors served as imperial doctors in the palace. He has a high reputation in Sijiu City.â
Miss Jiâs face was full of disdain. What kind of nonsense imperial doctor!
If he were so skilled, would the Qing Dynasty have fallen?
Fortunately, Doctor Wang did not notice Miss Jiâs contempt.
Upon hearing that Doctor Wangâs ancestors were imperial doctors, Abnerâs face immediately showed a look of respect, and he said with his accented Chinese: âDoctor Wang, please come this way, Iâm entrusting my motherâs care to you.â
Doctor Wang followed Mr. Abner into the house.
After examining Abnerâs motherâs condition, Doctor Wang shook his head, âThis disease is too strange, I have been practicing medicine for more than a decade, and I have never seen such a strange disease.â
Not to mention ever encountering this disease, even the medical books of his family did not have any record of it.
Upon hearing this, ridicule flashed in Miss Jiâs eyes.
She thought he was an incredibly famous doctor, but it turns out he couldnât even diagnose the disease.
How embarrassing!
Mr. Abner then asked, âDoctor Wang, what do you mean?â
Doctor Wang stroked his beard, âYou might want to seek out someone more skilled.â
The light in Abnerâs eyes dimmed bit by bit.
Was there really no hope for his motherâs illness?
Li Long then spoke up, âDoctor Wang, youâre the most skilled Traditional Chinese Medicine doctor in Sijiu City. If even you canât treat it, who else can we turn to?â
Doctor Wang replied: âThank you for your compliment, but thereâs always a bigger fish. The depth and breadth of Traditional Chinese Medicine are vast. Just because I canât treat the disease, doesnât mean others canât.â
Miss Ji snorted, âI told you long ago that Traditional Chinese Medicine is outdated, inflexible, and incapable of treating serious diseases. Li Long, you didnât believe me. Now do you see it with your own eyes?â
She belittled and dismissed Traditional Chinese Medicine in her words, infuriating Doctor Wang who was listening!
âYoung lady, how dare you speak this way?â
Miss Ji laughed, âDonât get worked up. Iâm not targeting you, Iâm simply stating facts.â
âWhat facts? Youâre insulting Traditional Chinese Medicine!â As a practitioner of Traditional Chinese Medicine, Doctor Wang would not allow anyone to insult it.
Miss Ji retorted, âIf Traditional Chinese Medicine is truly effective, why couldnât you cure Auntieâs illness? Iâll tell you a hard truth â donât take it to heart. Weâre now living in an era dominated by Western Medicine. Traditional Chinese Medicine should have been overthrown long ago!â
If our people donât strive, sooner or later, they will be enslaved!
The tragedy of invasion will be repeated.
âThis is due to my personal limitations and has nothing to do with Traditional Chinese Medicine!â Doctor Wang replied: âSince you think Western Medicine is so powerful, why couldnât it cure this ladyâs illness?â
Miss Ji was left speechless.
