NOVEL NEXT Chapter 222 Elder Zhong
"How do you feel?"
"Hmph!"
The elder in front of Wang Ye humphed as well, "If you want to go, then go; no one is stopping you! But given Elder Zhong's personality, if you fail to satisfy him, you'll have a hard time later!"
Having said that.
The elder didn't concern himself with Wang Ye's plans anymore.
He let Wang Ye do whatever he was going to do.
Seeing this, Wang Ye headed towards the direction of Elder Zhong.
Meanwhile, Chen Li, who was by Wang Ye's side, introduced, "Elder Zhong, whose full name is Zhong Feng, is the chairman of the Dragon Country Traditional Chinese Medicine Association and has a high level of attainment in Traditional Chinese Medicine."
"Understood."
Even after hearing Chen Li's words, Wang Ye's face did not show any sign of fear; instead, he continued walking toward where Zhong Feng was.
Zhong Feng, seeing Wang Ye and Chen Li approaching, turned his head away and continued to socialize with the people around him.
Clearly, he did not wish to bother with Wang Ye and Chen Li.
But what Zhong Feng overlooked was the thickness of Wang Ye's skin.
Wang Ye still came up to Zhong Feng, cupped his hands in salute, and smiled, "Elder Zhong."
Elder Zhong, still with his head turned, did not respond to Wang Ye.
The other elderly Traditional Chinese Medicine practitioners beside Elder Zhong, however, started to scold Wang Ye:
"Kid, go where the kids gather, don't disturb us here!"
"Where did this kid come from, coming up here straight away; believe it or not, I'll tell your elders?"
"You youngsters want to hitch a ride on our credibility, fine, we old folks don't care to bother with you, but if you insist on coming over here, then don't blame us for being unwelcoming!"
The elderly practitioners of Traditional Chinese Medicine present had lived most of their lives.
And they were held in high esteem.
Apart from Traditional Chinese Medicine, they didn't care much for other things; they weren't like businessmen who had to consider their public image.
So, upon seeing Wang Ye coming over, they all spoke up and urged him to leave.
They intended to shoo Wang Ye away directly.
However.
Upon hearing these elderly practitioners' words telling him to leave, Wang Ye had no intention of going; instead, with a smile on his face, he found a vacant seat nearby and sat down with Chen Li.
"Hey!"
The practitioners present exclaimed in annoyance upon seeing Wang Ye and Chen Li not only staying but sitting down.
Their displeasure only grew stronger.
"You little rascal, how can you be so senseless? This is not where you belong; you should be somewhere else, not here."
"Hurry up and move over there, otherwise, believe it or not, I won't give face to your elders and will kick you out of here myself."
"You little brat, you don't understand anything; just seeing you is annoying. You don't move to some other place but sit here—what, are you purely here to disgust us?"
These old practitioners of Traditional Chinese Medicine spoke without any courtesy.
Wang Ye, hearing their words, did not get angry but maintained a smiling face.
Because from the tone of these elderly practitioners, Wang Ye could feel their devotion to safeguarding Traditional Chinese Medicine.
Wang Ye smiled and fixed his gaze on one of the elderly practitioners, sizing him up.
"Why are you staring at Elder Jiang?"
"What's the matter, trying to claim kinship?" I tell you, even if you were indeed a descendant of Elder Jiang, if you don't have the genuine knowledge and ability, we'd still send you packing elsewhere!"
However.
Wang Ye, despite hearing these words from the elder Traditional Chinese Medicine practitioners, kept his gaze fixed on Elder Jiang.
Elder Jiang felt the constant stare from Wang Ye.
He began to wonder if there was something on his face.
He reached up to touch his face.
But he didn't feel anything out of the ordinary on his skin.
Just then.
Wang Ye spoke up, "Elder Jiang, have you been feeling uncomfortable when sleeping at night recently? Do you have many dreams and find your sleep shallow, waking up easily?"
"You kid, are you talking nonsense?"
"Dreaming indicates deep sleep, how can it be light then? Even if you're making this up, you should at least make some logical sense," said a few of the traditional Chinese medicine elders, their eyes filled with dissatisfaction as they looked at Wang Ye.
Zhong Feng looked toward Wang Ye with a hint of indignation on his face, seemingly ready to send Wang Ye away.
However, Elder Jiang stopped the other Traditional Chinese Medicine practitioners who were scolding Wang Ye and said, "It's true! What he said is all true. I've indeed been experiencing this for the past few days."
"Really?"
"The kid actually spoke the truth?"
Upon hearing Elder Jiang's words, the eyes of the other elder practitioners turned to Wang Ye with a strange curiosity.
Elder Jiang turned to Wang Ye and asked, "What do you think, how should my condition be treated?"
As soon as Elder Jiang had spoken, Elder Zhong and the other elder practitioners all turned their gaze toward Wang Ye, waiting for him to provide an answer.
This was both a question and a test.
Since Wang Ye had pinpointed Elder Jiang's recent issues, it proved that Wang Ye had some skills.
At this moment, they were curious to see to what extent Wang Ye's proficiency in Traditional Chinese Medicine had reached.
"The recent condition Elder Jiang is experiencing is due to..."
Following that, Wang Ye explained the reason behind Elder Jiang's condition and the method to resolve it.
The words of Wang Ye made Elder Jiang, Elder Zhong, and those present nod their heads in satisfaction.
His explanation was logical and well-founded.
Just as Elder Jiang was looking at Elder Zhong, about to speak up for Wang Ye, Wang Ye turned his attention to another elder practitioner and identified the issues present with that practitioner.
Then, he proceeded to provide a solution for the elder practitioner's condition.
Not just that.
In the following time, Wang Ye almost outlined every health issue and sub-health state conditions the elder practitioners had, along with their solutions.
The eyes of these elder practitioners, when they looked at Wang Ye, had completely changed.
Perhaps, at the beginning, some of the elder practitioners had their doubts, suspecting whether Wang Ye was colluding with some among them.
They wondered if the issues Wang Ye addressed were just prearranged for him to mention.
But now.
Everyone present felt that such a thing was simply impossible.
Everything Wang Ye stated must have come from his own knowledge.
After all, none of the elder practitioners present, except Elder Zhong, would have had the ability to do so.
