The two old men chatted for a while, while Liu Yan took the opportunity to examine Old Man Huang's face. After a while, Huang Changjiang nudged him, signaling him to go out and speak.
As the three of them walked out of the room, Huang Changjiang swept his gaze over Liu Yan and asked Zhou Qian, "Qianqian, where did you find such a genius doctor? How come he's so young?"
"Uncle Jiang, I picked him up on the way here." Zhou Qian giggled and told him the story of how she knew Liu Yan. She also told him about how Liu Yan treated Old Master Zhou's leg injury.
Huang Changjiang wasn't surprised at all, and said, "So he's a disciple of the folk Chinese medicine. He has some skills, but he's really reached the end. The doctors from the Chinese medicine association and the military hospital have all come to see him, so there's nothing they can do about it …"
Then, he turned to Liu Yan and said, "Little brother, I admit that there are some folk medicine formulas that are very useful, but my dad is already old and no matter what kind of medicine he uses, it won't be able to solve the problem. Take a look at it later and try to say something good to give the old man a chance, do you understand?"
Liu Yan was stunned for a moment. He understood Huang Changjiang's words. He didn't think too highly of himself. He only wanted to pretend that he was going to treat Old Man Huang to give him a bit of hope so that he could endure for a while longer.
Zhou Qian pursed her lips and said dejectedly, "Grandpa Huang is indeed old. Liu Yan, if you can't solve this, then just do as Uncle Jiang says."
"I'll do my best." Liu Yan nodded his head.
"Alright, let's go in."
As he re-entered the room, Old Master Zhou immediately introduced Liu Yan to Old Master Huang on the bed. He was beaming with joy as he vividly recounted his treatment of his own leg injury, almost praising Liu Yan to the heavens.
Liu Yan felt very upset. The more Old Master Zhou said this, the more responsibility he felt. If he didn't do anything and only said some good words, it was useless. After lying in bed for so long, the old man was very clear on what his children were thinking.
"Hurry up and show him." Old Man Zhou urged.
Liu Yan nodded and sat on the side of the bed to feel Old Master Huang's pulse. Old Master Huang's arm was thin and looked like a bag of bones. His pulse was also very weak, even more so than Old Master Zhou's.
"I need some time. Everyone, don't make a sound." Liu Yan's expression was grave as he closed his eyes. A surge of energy entered Old Man Huang's body and flowed through his arms throughout his entire body.
Heart, liver, stomach, spine, left femur. Old Master Huang's situation was even more serious than Liu Yan had imagined. There were many problems in many areas.
Some of the important organs were already showing signs of aging. They were surrounded by a "death aura", and his spine and left femur were injured, especially the left femur, which was a new injury caused by his fall last year. In order to recover from it, he had extracted his life force, which was already so pitifully low that it would be difficult to recover from it, not to mention the fact that he had been bedridden for a long time.
In the end, when that strand of life energy completely died out, Liu Yan opened his eyes. Although his heart was heavy, he still revealed a smile on his face.
"How is it?" Old Man Zhou immediately asked expectantly.
"This young lad has been diagnosed for a bit too long, and has a bit of the style of an old Chinese doctor. Don't say too much good words, I know my situation." Old man Huang smiled, he was already speaking frankly.
Huang Changjiang quickly said, "Dad, this young man is definitely not like the other doctors. He's a disciple of an old Chinese doctor and has great medical skills. Let's listen to what he has to say first."
"That's right, Grandpa Huang, he's really strong. My grandpa's legs were treated by him, so he recovers very quickly." Zhou Qian also encouraged him.
For the sake of the elderly, the children and juniors did their best to preserve the old man's hope of survival. However, he really did have a way to extend the old man's life, and even allowing him to stand up was not a problem.
"As a doctor, I will speak the truth. The old man's body is indeed old, and many of his organs have problems, including his heart, liver and stomach, and two areas that are the most serious: his spine and left femur, which should be old wounds that have never healed, and his left femur, which is still new to him due to his age. His wounds will not heal yet, and he will even further draw out his vitality." Liu Yan said very straightforwardly.
He had been taking care of old man Huang, so naturally, he was very familiar with the condition of his body. What Liu Yan said had indeed not been wrong at all, which surprised him. What shocked him even more was that Liu Yan was able to determine these physical conditions just by checking his pulse, and was also able to identify the new and old injuries on his spine and left leg.
"How did you do it?" Huang Changjiang took a deep breath, his face beaming with joy. He had invited a lot of doctors to see him, but because the old man's movements were inconvenient, the medical instruments couldn't be used, making it difficult to diagnose the illness inside his body. However, Liu Yan had done it with just his pulse.
"Pulse, face, and voice can all express many things." Liu Yan smiled mysteriously. He had no way to explain the situation to them.
"Young man, you have really broadened my horizons. I think that without a few decades of experience, it's impossible to do this." Old man Huang, who was on the bed, was also extremely surprised. After being ill for so long, he had become a doctor. He also understood a lot about Chinese medicine.
"I knew he would be able to do it. He is a genius who has not even graduated from high school yet has learned such a profound medical skill. He will definitely shine in the future." Old Man Zhou chuckled.
Liu Yan was praised to the point where he felt somewhat embarrassed. He coughed twice and said, "If the old man continues to be like this, I estimate that he won't be able to last until next winter."
Huang Changjiang's eyes were wide open, and blue veins were popping out on his forehead. Liu Yan was right, many doctors said that the Old Master wouldn't be able to endure past next winter, and even until the beginning of autumn, he would still be in great trouble.
Old man Huang did not reveal any pessimistic feelings when he heard this news. Instead, he smiled and said: "Not bad, I should have left after a fall last year. It was only a few children who invited a doctor to forcefully extend my life."
"The old man is really open-minded!" Liu Yan's face was filled with admiration. "However, I have a way to help you extend your life for at least three years. Furthermore, you can get off the bed."
"What do we do!?" Tell me quickly! I am willing to pay any price! " Huang Changjiang was overjoyed when he heard this. He grabbed Liu Yan's shoulder with great excitement.
Liu Yan said, "Give me time. I need two days."
Huang Changjiang hesitated for a moment and then asked, "What do you plan to do? Tell me about it, and I'll let you have the old gramps' treatment."
Liu Yan scratched his head. His method of treatment was a bit complicated. He needed to use the afternoon needles and the Life and Death Art to inject Old Man Huang's body with vitality and then slowly draw out the death aura within him. This process was very long.
"My theories on traditional Chinese medicine are quite unorthodox, let me give you a simple explanation." Liu Yan took out the wooden box and began explaining the principles behind the Life and Death Qi.
"There is life and death energy in the human body, life force is vigorous, life force is high in the human body, baby's body is the most, and death energy is mostly in the old people or people on the verge of death, I will use acupuncture to stimulate the old man's life force and extract the death energy from his body, you see …" Liu Yan stretched out his left hand. It was slender and smooth, similar to a woman's hand. He immediately started to insert the needle, sealing the aura of death within his left palm.
His smooth palms began to wither at a speed visible to the naked eye, like a withered flower. The light dimmed, and a trace of wrinkles appeared on his palms.
"AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!" Zhou Qian exclaimed, covering her mouth in shock. Huang Changjiang was also staring with his eyes wide open.
"What a miraculous technique." Old Man Zhou was amazed.
"Right now, my hand is filled with a deathly aura, so my palm will become like this. Look …" Liu Yan pulled out the silver needle and dispelled the aura of death. Then, he circulated the liveliness in his body and infused it into his palm once more. Finally, he sealed it, and his palm gradually recovered back to its original state.
"This... What kind of logic is this!? " Huang Changjiang could not believe his eyes.
"Magic?" Zhou Qian was stunned.
"If that's the case, then we can definitely do it! Old Yellow can be saved. " Old Man Zhou was excited.
Taking out the silver needle, Liu Yan revealed an apologetic look and said, "This treatment method is extremely difficult and requires a huge amount of energy. Furthermore, there are very few people who can use this method. I hope you can help me keep this secret."
"It's alright. I need to prepare before the treatment." Liu Yan smiled faintly.
"Good!" I can fulfill all of your demands! " Huang Changjiang looked excited as he immediately walked over to the bedside and said, "Dad, Uncle Huang has found a grand master level genius doctor for you. You have to cooperate with the treatment; he said that you can walk from the bed."
Old man Huang had also seen the miraculous scene just now, and a strange glow appeared on his old face. Hope appeared in his eyes as he said: "I hope this little brother won't be troubled."
"It won't be difficult." Liu Yan smiled, he asked for a pen and paper, wrote down a set of medicinal formulas, and these were all very precious herbs, not for Old Master Huang to consume, but for him to recover his vitality. This was because the time he spent cultivating the Life and Death Art was too short, he had less life energy, and he needed to continue his treatment.
Huang Changjiang immediately made a phone call and sent someone to the pharmacy to buy medicine. Liu Yan had written five taels to one catty, but Huang Changjiang asked to buy five catties.
After buying the medicine, Liu Yan immediately went to the kitchen to boil the medicine. However, when he saw all sorts of electrical appliances, he was dumbfounded.
