Chapter 186: Chapter 186: He Was Poisoned_1

Traditional Chinese Medicine is almost incomparable to Western Medicine in terms of accessibility.

When it comes to accuracy, Western Medicine also has an absolute disadvantage, after all, Western Medicine diagnoses based on testing human cells, tissues, and even DNA, while Traditional Chinese Medicine relies solely on the doctor’s experience and can hardly compete with the high-tech equipment of Western Medicine.

However, Traditional Chinese Medicine has its own advantages.

Firstly, there’s the level of understanding of the human body; while Western Medicine can only analyze the quality of tissues and cells, Traditional Chinese Medicine works with meridians and acupoints. By stimulating these meridians and acupoints, diseases can be treated.

Secondly, Traditional Chinese Medicine has been handed down for thousands of years, and its experience is far more abundant than that of Western Medicine. For something common like a headache and fever, Western Medicine would require a full blood count, urinalysis, and other tests, then you would need to see a doctor to get a prescription and take medication. The entire process can cost hundreds or even thousands.

But for an experienced Traditional Chinese Medicine practitioner, just by looking at the tongue coating and asking about the body’s condition, they can diagnose the problem. With just one prescription, recovery can be expected in merely two or three days, and the total cost would only be a few dozen yuan.

Furthermore, the human body is quite mysterious. Although Western Medicine is developed based on a scientific system, there are many things that science cannot explain, such as ’Qi.’ Everyone has ’Qi,’ but this Qi cannot be detected by Western Medicine, whereas Traditional Chinese Medicine can easily sense it with the simple insertion of a silver needle into the acupoint.

Seeing Mo Han remain silent, Zhou William’s face showed a victorious smile. He looked at Mo Han with contempt and then said to Zhou Zhishan on the hospital bed, "Grandpa, just wait a moment, Doctor Mo Lisi’s test results will be out soon, and then we will know what’s wrong."

Zhou Zhishan’s mouth twitched slightly. He of course knew what his illness was, but unfortunately, he was utterly unable to speak. Now, he could only swallow his tears and play along, "William, you’ve worked hard."

"You are my grandfather, and this is my duty," Zhou William said with a proud smile, his gaze inadvertently glancing over at Zhou Xintong.

Watching Zhou William’s complacent demeanor, Zhou Xintong’s face turned green with irritation.

If one were to say who among the younger generation of the Zhou Family was most likely to inherit the family’s enterprise, aside from herself, it was this cousin of hers.

Zhou William not only resembled the young version of their grandfather to a degree of seventy or eighty percent, but he also, like her, had obtained double master’s degrees abroad. Most importantly, he was a male, and over half of the Zhou Family favored Zhou William as the future head of the family.

And, as for Zhou Xintong, no matter how hard she worked, she was, after all, a daughter—a future wife to someone. Once married, she would be like water splashed out, never able to inherit the Zhou Family’s business again.

"Mister Mo!" Zhou Xintong pulled at Mo Han, puffing out her anger, "Are you just going to stand there and watch Zhou William be so arrogant?"

"Don’t panic, let’s wait for the report first," Mo Han said calmly as he touched his nose.

Traditional Chinese Medicine emphasizes the four diagnostic methods of observation, smelling, inquiring, and touching. Although Mo Han had not taken Zhou Zhishan’s pulse, from his complexion, demeanor, and cough, it seemed that he was not ill, but rather appeared to have been poisoned.

But if it was poisoning, what kind of poison could it be? And why did it cause various headaches around noon?

This was something he couldn’t figure out.

As Mo Han pondered, a masked attendant walked in slowly, carrying an incense burner. He placed the incense burner in a corner, and instantly, wisps of blue smoke rose, filling the hall with the elegant scent of sandalwood.

Ding!

Suddenly, Zhou William’s phone rang. He swiped open the screen—it was the test report from Professor Mo Lisi.

He carefully reviewed the file, muttering, "Impossible, the test results indicate he’s healthy. How can grandpa be healthy with this condition?"

The other doctors in white lab coats in the room also turned off their equipment. One of them approached Zhou William and said in clumsy Mandarin, "Dear Zhou, your grandfather’s illness is very complicated. We have checked with our devices twice and have not found any issues."

"Are the blood analysis results from Professor Mo Lisi out yet?"

Zhou William forced a smile and passed over his phone. The foreign doctor read it and nodded, "Yes, Professor Mo Lisi’s conclusions are the same as ours."

"Mister Zhou is indeed not ill!"

As soon as this statement was made, the entire living room fell silent.

After a long while, Zhou Xintong was the first to speak, "Not ill? But grandpa is in such a state? You say he’s not ill? Are you all blind?"

The doctor in white spread his hands helplessly, "Miss Zhou, I know it’s hard for you to accept, but according to our physical examination and Professor Mo’s blood analysis, Mister Zhou’s body indicators are all normal."

"Perhaps Mister Zhou has been bewitched by a sorceress... "

This last statement was obviously a helpless excuse.

How could they treat him if they couldn’t even find the cause of the illness?

Witchcraft?

Mo Han’s eyes suddenly lit up. He stared intently at the old Mister Zhou for a full two minutes then finally nodded in satisfaction.

"Mister Mo, did you notice something?" Zhou Xintong had been watching Mo Han closely, and seeing his expression change rapidly, she spoke with excitement.

"Yes!"

Mo Han nodded, his eyes which had been slightly squinted flared open, "I have mostly figured out what is wrong with Mister Zhou!"

"He’s not ill; he has been poisoned!"
