Chapter 765 What are Meridians?
Kingsley laughed heartily before saying, "Alright, you and your wife should leave the hospital! Cayden is still with Kenny, so you can pick up your kid and celebrate as a family!"
Alan was surprised upon hearing his words. "They can leave the hospital just like that? There aren't any treatments left?"
He was so astonished because he knew that Shannon was critically ill the instant he laid his eyes on her. There was no doubt that she was already at death's door.
In all honesty, he had never expected that a patient with such a severe condition would be discharged immediately after she was cured! It only made it all the more shocking when it was her primary doctor, Kingsley, who made such an announcement. Exclusive content © by Nô(v)el/Dr/ama.Org.
"Treatment? Just go home and have a few good meals. Everything will be fine!" Kingsley smiled and said, "If Professor Gershwin is still worried, why don't you personally check her pulse?"
Alan quickly waved his hand and answered, "Dr. Nicholson, I have complete faith in your medical skills. It's just that... this patient has just recovered from a serious illness. Based on my experience, it would be better for her to stay in the hospital for observation for a few more days. My concern is purely out of professional responsibility, not because I doubt your medical skills..."
Kingsley simply smiled faintly. "Professor Gershwin, I understand where you're coming from. Why don't you consider checking her pulse as a final confirmation that she's hale and hearty?"
Alan immediately nodded upon hearing his suggestion and said, "Alright, let's see how the patient is faring..."
Then, he approached Shannon's side and gently placed his hand on her wrist.
One second.
Two seconds.
Three seconds.
...
The clock ticked away, and Alan's eyes widened with each passing second!
His previously calm face was now contorted in pure bewilderment!
The wrinkles on his face became more pronounced in his agitation as he trembled in stupefaction!
After a full minute, he shakily withdrew his hand from checking her pulse.
"This... This is unbelievable..." Alan's voice was hoarse as he stammered, "I-I thought it was already difficult enough to cure the disease! I never expected it... I never expected that you could inject vitality into her heart through your procedure! It's like she has a brand-new heart! This is a miracle!"
Cassius and Shannon felt even more at ease upon hearing the praise the old professor was doling out.
Even the nurse standing beside them was utterly amazed by Kingsley's skills as her jaw fell agape.
She knew nothing about traditional medicine techniques.
Frankly, she had silently doubted whether Kingsley was a genuine doctor or a charlatan. She hadn't really believed that he had truly cured the patient.
Yet, all her doubts disappeared as she listened to Alan's praises!
This time, the nurse looked at Kingsley in disbelief instead of suspicion, and her eyes were filled with admiration!
"Dr. Nicholson, is this the legendary Gorgion's technique?"
Then, Alan exclaimed enthusiastically, "I can't believe I would be able to witness such a miraculous feat with my own two eyes! It has truly brought those who were on the brink of death back to life!"
"Yes, this is indeed the lost Gorgion's technique." Kingsley nodded. "It is something left behind by our ancestors in Qustia. Of course, it's only natural for it to possess such unique effects!"
Alan rubbed his hands together as he proposed, "Dr. Nicholson, may I ask for your advice on the patient's condition?"
"Yes, I also want to know why the specialized instruments couldn't detect the disease," Alice quickly chimed in. "If we know the cause, maybe we can find a way to treat Old Mrs. Fox!"
Kingsley simply smiled slightly, "In traditional medicine, there is a saying: if there is no pain, there is no blockage; if there is pain, there is no flow! Now, we can basically conclude that Mrs. White's heart disease is caused by congenital meridian blockage! Therefore, the flow of qi and blood can run smoothly after I unblocked her meridians. This is also why it seemed as though her heart had regained its vitality after the procedure."
Both Alan and Alice fell into deep thought as they took Kingsley's words into consideration.
Alice pondered it over before musing, "So, all we need to do is find a way to unblock Old Mrs. Fox's blocked meridians?"
She furrowed her eyebrows slightly as she stumbled across something she didn't know. "But... What are meridians? Can they be found through open-heart surgery?"
