113 A Tricky Patient
Mo Ruyue nodded slightly at him and followed behind the old Imperial physician.

At the beginning of the hanging board ceremony, people had noticed that Divine Doctor Qin, who had made the county magistrate and his wife admit defeat, apologize, and compensate, was also present. They started to guess the reason for her appearance.

After the ceremony ended, the old imperial doctor simply announced the answer.

But when they heard that this divine doctor would be in charge of Huichun Tower in the future, everyone was shocked again.

In that case, everyone would have a chance to see if this divine doctor’s medical skills were real or fake?

If it was fake, the magistrate would not let her off, and even the reputation of Huichun Hall would be affected. But if it was real, it would be a blessing for the common people.

Originally, the old imperial doctor had wanted Mo Ruyue to say a few words to everyone, but she waved her hand and refused. Considering that she had a cold personality and a venomous tongue, the old imperial doctor found another topic to smooth things over.

After the whole ceremony was over, Huichun Hall officially opened for business. The first patient who came was an extremely difficult case of epilepsy.

Originally, everyone was enthusiastically discussing the matter of Mo Ruyue joining Huichun Hall. They didn’t expect that someone would run in with a door and shout while running, “Quickly make way, save him! Hurry up and save him!”

A man was lying on the door, his whole body twitching and trembling violently. A large amount of white foam was coming out of his mouth, which had already blocked his entire mouth.

If it weren’t for the fact that there were two people beside the door holding the man down, he would have fallen from the door.

“It’s epilepsy, right? Look, you’re shaking like this!”

“Yeah, yeah. His face is turning purple. He’s not going to make it.”

“What bad luck. This Huichun Hall has just opened. How did we encounter such a difficult patient?”

“Maybe she wanted to test Divine Physician Qin’s charm. Didn’t that old Imperial physician say that her medical skills are even above his?”

The discussions of the commoners reached Mo Ruyue’s ears. She also knew that she had to show her skills, or it would be hard to convince the public.

Hence, she said directly, “Carry the person inside. You guys move aside to ensure that the ventilation is smooth. A few people come and hold down his hands and feet, I want to give him acupuncture.”

Acupuncture was acupuncture. In this world, acupuncture had a wide foundation even among the common people. It was just that many people knew about it, but few could actually see real kung fu.

When everyone heard that this female divine doctor actually knew acupuncture, their eyes instantly widened and they were ready to watch the show.

Let’s see if this female divine doctor really has some skills or if she’s just an empty title.

The convulsing people were carried into Huichun Hall. Those who had wanted to rush in to see the commotion were stopped outside the door, leaving a small path for people to enter and exit. The others surrounded the door on both sides and stuck their heads in to look inside.

Mo Ruyue was standing in front of the door. This angle was against the light. She first undid the man’s shirt, then took out an alcohol swab from her medical kit to disinfect the silver needles and the man’s body.

She recognized the acupuncture points very quickly, and the needle was accurate and neat, without any hesitation or sloppiness.

The old imperial doctor also followed her in. In order not to block Mo Ruyue’s light, he deliberately went around to her back and saw her series of actions. He couldn’t help but stroke his beard and nod.

As he watched, he also guided the young disciples and doctors beside him. His voice was extremely low, as if he was afraid of disturbing Mo Ruyue, but also as if he was using her live acupuncture as a teaching example to explain to them.

It was said that the insiders looked at the door, while the outsiders looked at the excitement.

Even if the surrounding commoners didn’t understand medicine, when they saw the group of professional doctors listening to the old imperial doctor’s explanation with serious faces, and the old imperial doctor also nodding repeatedly at Mo Ruyue’s actions, everyone could see that this was the best affirmation of her medical skills.

The most important thing was that as Mo Ruyue continued with the acupuncture, the person who was violently twitching had gradually calmed down. His face was no longer frighteningly blue and purple.

It was better to let people see the actual case of him being cured than to brag a thousand times. Now that everyone had personally witnessed that Mo Ruyue’s acupuncture skills could save people, the last trace of doubt in their hearts was dispelled.

No wonder the old imperial doctor would personally vouch for her and invite her to join Huichun Hall. As expected, the title of Divine Doctor was not an undeserved reputation.

“No wonder she has the title of Divine Doctor. Just look at her acupuncture skills. I’m afraid that even the doctors in Huichun Hall are not as good as her.”

“That’s right, did you see that? Even the old imperial physician took the opportunity to use her as a teaching demonstration. Is that something an ordinary person can do? If you don’t have some ability, then wouldn’t you be misleading the children?”

“That’s right. If someone still suspects that she’s a quack, then they’re either stupid or bad!”

“Shush, shush, are you crazy? What nonsense are you talking about?”

Mo Ruyue finally stopped what she was doing and stood up to look outside. Because she was facing the light, she couldn’t see the expressions on everyone’s faces, but she could hear their heated discussion.

Although she had to use examples to prove her ability, it was worth it to shut up some rumors.

After stopping the patient’s epilepsy, Mo Ruyue did not immediately withdraw the needle. Instead, she continued to twist the needle for a while before slowly stopping and withdrawing the needle.

“Someone, write down the prescription I told you, boil it and feed it to the patient,” Wang Yao said. “After that, take it twice a day in the morning and evening. Don’t eat, pay attention to rest, and don’t tire yourself out. Your condition will be alleviated.”

Mo Ruyue first explained the things to take note of, then sterilized the silver needle with an alcohol cotton while explaining a prescription.

This time, it was Qing Yi who was smart enough to grab the opportunity to record the prescription with a pen. The others silently noted it down in their hearts and savored the taste in their hearts. They suddenly felt that Mo Ruyue’s medicine was really exquisite.

In the past, the same prescriptions for this kind of illness would always have a feeling of sluggishness and difficulty. However, Mo Ruyue’s prescription only made two slight changes on the basis and could give people a feeling of sudden enlightenment. No wonder it was so highly praised by the old imperial doctor.

After Mo Ruyue had revealed her skills, no matter if they were professionals or laymen, they all believed in her in their own way. Just by looking at the changes in people’s eyes, she knew that they had recognized her ability.

“Divine Doctor Qin, you’ve worked hard. I’m really sorry to let you deal with such a difficult patient on the first day of business. It’s also beyond my expectations.”

The old imperial doctor walked over and said to Mo Ruyue with a smile, “However, the way you handled it really amazed me. Not only was the acupuncture technique clean, decisive, and accurate, but even the preparation of the prescription gave people the feeling of enlightenment. I’m really…”

He paused for a moment, as if he was looking for the right words to describe it, but in the end, he just smiled and shook his head, as if he didn’t know what to say.

“Old Doctor, you shouldn’t use “you”on me. You can either call me lady Qin or you, or I’ll feel very awkward.”
