Chapter 332: Chapter 332 Gu Youyou VS Yue Rujing

Gu Youyou spoke solemnly but nonsensically, "Some injuries are invisible, like yours. In fact, it has reached the bone, and it’s not apparent now because you’re young. When you grow older, you’ll understand. The pain will come with every gust of wind and rain."

"Don’t scare people with such nonsense here!" Yue Rujing said with disdain, "Don’t forget that I am also versed in the Qihuang Technique. If you can’t run anymore, just say so. Why drag my senior brother into this? Do you think I am easily frightened?"

Seeing that they were about to start arguing again and that it seemed it wouldn’t end anytime soon, Jin Zijin consciously went off to start a fire.

"Qihuang Technique?" Gu Youyou repeated with a faint smile, her expression even more disdainful, "All you know is the Qihuang Technique, but do you not realize that the true medical skills cannot be encompassed just by ’looking, listening, questioning, and taking the pulse’? The theories of Yin and Yang, the Five Phases, Zangxiang, Meridians, Essence, Qi, Blood, and Body Fluids... the Five Phases and Six Qi Theory. Even if you can recite them fluently, how can you comprehend their forms and discern their natures?"

Yue Rujing, who had always taken great pride in his medical skills, was belittled for the first time by someone, and to make matters worse, by a woman. This made him so angry that he burst into laughter, "Then tell me, how do you understand their forms and discern their natures?"

Gu Youyou stared at him intently, and suddenly her face broke into a confident smile, slowly turning slightly eerie.

This ambiguous smile made Yue Rujing feel inexplicably uneasy.

This woman, she was about to take some shocking action again.

As Yue Rujing felt uneasy, Gu Youyou’s voice, as clear as a silver bell and tinged with laughter, reached the ears of the three of them.

"Simple, dissection. If you don’t know what a diseased liver looks like, you take one out and study it closely. If you don’t know why the head aches, you open up the skull and look at it carefully with your eyes. As for the heart..."

"Stop right there!"

Yue Rujing cut Gu Youyou off before she could finish, holding back his urge to vomit.

Damn, what kind of person was this? He looked sympathetically at Jin Zijin, who was making a fire not too far away, thinking how could he stand being around such a person all day without feeling discomfort?

Was this a normal person? Of course not, she was just plain twisted.

"Are you a doctor or a coroner?"

In ancient times, the person who examined dead bodies was called a coroner, akin to a forensic scientist today. Forensic scientists, like doctors, were respected by people, but that refers to the modern era.

In ancient times, coroners were ill-regarded, standing worlds apart from doctors. The ancient people were superstitious, and ordinary folks would not touch a dead body; hence, coroners were usually from the lowest classes or slaves. Gu Youyou recalled this from a casual conversation she had with Qin Changlin.

Gu Youyou became angry. Good one, Yue Rujing, comparing her to the lowest classes and slaves.

She said indignantly, "How dare you call yourself a doctor when you don’t even have the courage to pursue the real essence of medicine? No wonder your decayed thinking needs to evolve for thousands of years. Do you get what I’m saying, you idiot? Time will prove that I’m right."

"Oh, look at you being all high and mighty. Come on, before it gets dark, let’s get the horse and go for another round," Yue Rujing challenged her.

Gu Youyou said, "I’d have to be utterly bored to bother taking you for another round."

"You just don’t dare!"

"Fine, let’s say I don’t dare," Gu Youyou laughed heartily and happily ran over to where Jin Zijin was.

Yue Rujing said smugly, "At least you know what’s good for you!" The words had barely left his mouth when he felt that something was off.

Huh, what did she just say?

I’d have to be utterly bored to bother taking you for another round?

Yue Rujing’s face suddenly darkened.

Gu Youyou vs. Yue Rujing, a complete victory!
