Divorced by her husband's family and rejected by her own! She defiantly turned her life around

However, Dr. Cheng didn't have to wait long. The next day, before dinner time, Dr. Cheng was seeing patients in the lobby when Lu Yunping rushed out in a panic, "Doctor, doctor, come quickly and see..."

Dr. Cheng was taking someone's pulse when he immediately stopped and went inside. The waiter quickly apologized to the patient, "Please wait a moment. There is a special patient in the clinic who has fallen ill and needs immediate treatment."

Don't worry, Dr. Cheng will definitely treat you. Why don't you rest here for a while?

The patient didn't mind and sat quietly to the side waiting. It was a matter of expediency, and his condition wouldn't improve much in a short time.

Upon seeing the patient's painful state during the attack, Dr. Cheng immediately took his pulse and inserted a silver needle into an acupoint. Lu Yunzhou immediately lost consciousness. Dr. Cheng then inserted another needle, and the convulsing body calmed down.

"How is the doctor?" Dr. Yang asked anxiously.

"The pulse was strange when the disease started. I have never seen such a pulse before. I am not sure what it is. I need to study it carefully and find out the cause before I can treat it properly."

The person is alright now and will wake up in half an hour.

"Are you a doctor?" Dr. Cheng asked Dr. Yang.

"In front of you, I am nothing, I only know a little bit."

"Will it require injections?"

"I know a little bit."

"You're very familiar with the patient, and you've been treating him?"

"I'm from the same village as him. I can't cure his illness. He was worried about something happening on the way, so he asked me to come with him."

"Oh, I see. This illness may not be curable in a short time. You can stay here while I study it carefully and find out the cause."

This person's attacks are very dangerous. I'll teach you a trick: when someone has an attack, use a needle to directly knock them unconscious. This is beneficial for the patient, as it prevents them from excessively depleting their vital energy. If they continuously and excessively deplete their vital energy, their hair will turn white and they will age prematurely.

"Alright, please teach me, doctor, how to save this child's life. He's only a teenager, already a student of the Imperial Academy, and about to take the imperial examination to become a Xiucai. He has a bright future ahead of him, and we can't let this illness ruin him."

"Let's not talk about the future. Only when you're healthy can you have a future. What future can a sick person have? Getting better is the most important thing."

"You're right, you're right, I was shortsighted."

Dr. Cheng taught Dr. Yang how to perform acupuncture, saying, "Remember, your hand must be steady and accurate when performing acupuncture. If you insert the needle incorrectly, it could be fatal."

Dr. Yang was under immense pressure; his hands trembled as he held the needles. If he misplaced the needle, Granny Liu would surely kill him. He practiced alone with the silver needles, but he did learn a trick: one needle could make someone faint.

After seeing his last patient of the day, Dr. Cheng immediately began studying Lu Yunzhou's condition. He consulted medical books and ancient texts, hoping to find similar cases that would give him a starting point and a direction for treatment.

Lu Yunzhou fell ill almost every day thereafter, at different times of day. Whenever Dr. Yang saw Lu Yunzhou fall ill, he would immediately knock him unconscious with a needle. If he had convulsions, he would give him another needle.

Lu Yunping felt extremely distressed watching his younger brother suffer. If his brother could never be cured, wouldn't all his efforts over the years have been in vain?

Dr. Cheng studied the disease for several days in a row and looked exhausted. He put up a sign that he would not see any patients for three consecutive days.

When new cases emerge, these doctors are often very persistent, determined to figure out the cause and find the right treatment. For them, this is an achievement and a valuable legacy to leave to future generations.

"How has the patient been these past few days?"

"She has unpredictable episodes every day, and the periods she spends in a coma are getting longer."

"Understood, take good care of the patient."

"Doctor, how much money will it cost for our treatment here? I'm afraid we don't have enough."

"If a cure cannot be found within half a month, you will be charged 20 taels for consultation, and room fees will be charged separately. If a cure can be found, the fees will be calculated separately."

"Okay, okay, thank you, doctor."

"You're welcome. This case is very special, and I haven't found a good solution yet, so this is all I can do for now."

Unable to figure it out on his own, Doctor Cheng sought out old friends to study it together. These people Doctor Cheng found were arguably the most famous doctors in the prefectural city, one of whom was a retired imperial physician who had returned to his hometown of Dongping Prefecture.

Dr. Cheng invited several doctors to a restaurant for dinner before explaining his purpose. Everyone immediately became interested, as they were all keen to investigate difficult cases. "Old Cheng, you should have said so sooner! Going around groping around like this is just a waste of time!" one doctor exclaimed.

"That's right, that's right."

"Let me tell you, when this person is not having an attack, everything is normal. Only when he has an attack will his pulse become abnormal. But there is no fixed time when this person has an attack. We can only wait and see."

"That's easy. We can all move to your clinic and study it together."

So Dr. Cheng led the four people into the clinic, asking, "Have any of them fallen ill today?"

"not yet."

"That's good. These are all famous doctors in the prefecture. I invited them here for a joint consultation."

"Thank you, Dr. Cheng, and thank you to all the doctors."

Dr. Yang was overjoyed. This trip not only taught him medical skills but also allowed him to meet so many famous doctors. He earned money and broadened his horizons. It was truly a worthwhile trip. He wished he could learn even a little more.

So the five renowned doctors sat in Lu Yunzhou's room, waiting for him to fall ill. They waited from 11 PM to 7 PM, but he didn't fall ill. They stared at each other in bewilderment, drinking pot after pot of tea. Finally, unable to bear it any longer, they had to take turns keeping watch over him.

In the middle of the night, Lu Yunzhou fell ill. Lu Yunping called for help everywhere. Several doctors, who were lying in bed fully clothed, immediately got up upon hearing the call. The five of them took turns taking Lu Yunzhou's pulse and conducting various examinations. The doctors were exhausted, and Lu Yunzhou was also exhausted, lying motionless on the bed as if he had collapsed.

After the doctors left, they went directly to Dr. Cheng's room. Dr. Cheng spoke first, "Everyone, please share your assessments of the patient's condition."

Each doctor shared their opinion, and finally, they came up with a treatment plan to try out and see if it would work.

After three consecutive days of treatment, Lu Yunzhou did not fall ill. Just when everyone thought the method was effective, Lu Yunzhou fell ill again, and this time it was even more severe and could not be suppressed. The only option was to use the ultimate move: to knock him unconscious with a needle.

Several doctors changed the treatment plan one after another, but all their efforts ultimately failed. These days, the doctors were exhausted and mentally drained. Just as they were thinking of a solution, there was a knock on Dr. Cheng's door.

"Who is it?"

"Dr. Cheng, it's me, Yang Tianlin."

"Come in."

Doctor Yang pushed open the door and entered, bowing to everyone. "Yang Tianlin greets you doctors."

"What brings you here? Has the patient had another attack?"

"He hasn't shown any symptoms yet. I see that all the doctors have worked very hard to study this disease, and I'm also very concerned about the health of all of you senior doctors."

I'm here because something suddenly occurred to me that I'd like to discuss with you all, and I don't know if it will be helpful.

Dr. Yang had thought of that matter long ago, but he dared not say it, fearing that others would say he was talking nonsense. As a doctor, he shouldn't believe such things, but now he had no choice. Perhaps this would be a breakthrough.

"Tell me anything that's helpful for the case studies."

"That's right. We are all doctors, there's nothing we can't say. Saving lives and relieving patients' pain is our duty as doctors."
