Chapter 2436 Medical Techniques Revealing Divination Has Early Precedents
Objectively speaking, within the Lijiang TCM community alone, Bian Mu has in fact become the youngest leader in the new TCM cause!
The entire Nie family was well aware of this.

Moreover, Bian Mu has actually raised the level of clinical treatment of traditional Chinese medicine in the local area by a whole version number, not 1.2, not 1.5, not 1.8, but directly to version 2.0.

The Nie family acknowledged this to some extent, but also had some doubts. There was nothing they could do, given that Bian Mu's diagnosis and cure rates remained consistently high. Moreover, Bian Mu's chosen treatment concepts and methods were very innovative, with new treatment methods consistently accounting for over 40%.

In addition, Bian Mu seems to be able to handle almost all types of diseases except cancer, including general internal medicine, pediatrics, orthopedics, ophthalmology, and dentistry. He is a true general practitioner of traditional Chinese medicine.

Colleagues in the industry have been discussing this privately for some time, saying that the older generation of TCM practitioners, such as Nie Yixiong, Cen Songxue, and Meng Shulan, are getting old, and in the future, at least in Lijin, it should be the younger generation, represented by Bian Mu, who will have the final say.

However, such judgments have always remained hidden in people's hearts, unspoken!
In academia, Bian Mu lacks a sufficient amount of heavyweight professional discourse. To put it another way, the number of formally published professional papers is far from enough. To this day, Bian Mu has not even obtained a formal identity in academia. Although he participated in a few high-level professional forums a while ago, which caused some impact, now that time has passed, those small ripples have long since subsided, as if Bian Mu had never set foot in academia.

In terms of status, Bian Mu can at most be considered a dark horse among the heads of traditional Chinese medicine clinics. This is something that cannot be examined too closely. Once you get to the point, he is nothing more than a young famous Chinese medicine doctor with some reputation who dares to try new technologies.

As for its influence in the industry, it is even more negligible. To this day, even colleagues like Dian Shuhua, Dr. Ning, Dr. Gong, and Teng Daili have not learned much from Bian Mu's brand-new so-called "digital medicine" medical concepts. In other words, the "digital medicine" concept has not even stepped out of the three clinics of the "New Concept" Traditional Chinese Medicine Clinic.

Bian Mu has always been known as a top-tier clinical TCM practitioner in major cities. He can turn the tide for most of the difficult and complicated diseases, giving them renewed hope for a cure.

Tonight, the phone call that Nie Yawen made unintentionally once again confirmed without warning that Bian Mu's "digital medicine" theoretical innovation was definitely not a gimmick to attract attention or just a change in name only; he really had something to offer.

What?! He's already incorporated matrices into the "numerical medicine" school of thought?! Judging from what he just said, some advanced mathematical concepts have been seamlessly and naturally integrated into the new TCM concepts.

Unbelievable!

"From what you just said... the underlying logical framework of your so-called 'numerical medicine' school is actually based on advanced mathematics? Or even one of its core elements?!" On the other end of the phone, Nie Yawen's tone became noticeably more subdued.

"Hehe... As a beginner, I wouldn't dare call myself the founder of a new school of thought in front of Elder Nie. The reason I call myself the 'Digital Medicine' school in public is simply to serve as a marker, to temporarily establish an academic coordinate system for my colleagues in the clinic. When we have business exchanges, we need a reference point and a background to refer to, right? At the same time, when I compare myself with other colleagues outside the clinic, I also have a clearer reflection of the industry background! I've never thought about creating my own school. At most, it's just to mark my career path so that I don't move forward blindly. Otherwise... I might lose my way if I'm not careful in the future!" "Come on! We don't think it's as easy as you make it sound! It's late at night, so let's cut to the chase and get to the point. According to the matrix you mentioned, how should we treat my grandfather's three loose teeth?! Or, according to the two you mentioned, how should we proceed?" Nie Yawen's personality is like that, energetic and impulsive, but you have to admit that this girl is good at grasping the key points when discussing matters.

"Hehe... Here's the thing, it's getting late, so I'll just give a brief summary. The trouble with oral health is that oral bacterial infection is a dynamic process of infection and counter-infection. Mathematically speaking, it's a dynamic infection function. Under this, treating any dental patient requires, at the very least, first converting their individual situation into a simple dynamic infection function. Based on the case data from the past two years, these functions vary quite a bit. Under this function, we then list the corresponding dental equations based on specific physical examination indicators. Multiple teeth are linked into a set of equations. The relationships in this set of equations are unlikely to be finalized overnight; it requires repeated revisions to achieve a reasonably accurate result. After the set of equations is established, we then combine them into a matrix based on each patient's actual age, Qi system profile, pulse diagnosis, and corresponding lesion points... Each patient has a unique set! Because they are unique, the difficulty of the actual operation naturally increases." On the other end of the phone, Bian Mu patiently explained each step in detail.

Nie Yawen's overall qualities are evident; she was also quite good at advanced mathematics back then, so she can understand about 60-70% of what she's hearing.

As a descendant of a prestigious family, Nie Yawen is definitely not to be underestimated when it comes to crucial moments.

"How did you even come up with that... But what about Grandpa specifically?"

“This… Elder Nie is aging, not ill, so… naturally it has to be considered separately!” Somewhat unexpectedly, Bian Mu suddenly blurted out these words on the other end of the phone.

"Oh...you're really good at distinguishing between them! How so?" Nie Yawen asked casually on the other end of the phone.

"The Situ Jianqing school has always adhered to a treatment principle: aging is aging, and illness is illness, and they never mix them up. As a result, the two seniors, Liang Xiangyin and Sima Kui, either politely declined or cured the illness instantly without any ambiguity. From my usual observation, the two seniors have always maintained an excellent diagnosis rate, effectiveness rate, and cure rate. Therefore, for Elder Nie's loose teeth, we need to refer to the longevity and anti-aging techniques of the Situ Jianqing school. In my opinion, Elder Nie is much more familiar with this than I am. So... you can send some of the physical examination data you think is appropriate. I will formulate a simulated conditioning plan based on our academic understanding. After you get it, please translate it and give it to Elder Nie. That will settle the matter."

"affim?!"

"More or less! The premise is that you can't hide your actions from him. To be honest, I've studied quite a few of the cases handled by Elder Liang. The art of longevity and immortality is far more complex than we imagine. Moreover, their school of thought also incorporates a large number of traditional divination techniques to varying degrees. To give an inappropriate analogy, the medical skills that Elder Liang and Sima Kui currently possess are roughly equivalent to a rudimentary version of the 'numerical medicine' school. I may be being a bit presumptuous, but... the words may be crude, but the principle is sound, you understand!"

"Hmm... I understand what you mean. I'll contact you again later! Sorry to bother you, goodnight!" With that, Nie Yawen hung up the phone.
