Chapter 78 – Guessed it Right (???)
But the country has a lot of TCM masters and most of them have probably studied medicine for several years. It was natural that Jing Yunzhao had a self-e?acing manner.
The information in the Jade Scroll was not to be underestimated. If she were to pull every word from her mind and recite it to explain the information, a Piece of Jade would probably take more than ten years.
Jing Yunzhao was really fortunate. She could directly absorb the things given to her by her Ancestor and change her own life.
“First, to test your judgment,” Gan Songbai said concisely and placed out three di?erent pictures in front of them.
The picture in front of Jing Yunzhao was of a woman in her forties. She had a lot of wrinkles and there was hardly any spirit in her eyes. Judging her from a medical perspective...
Jing Yunzhao frowned. The information she had already absorbed into her mind naturally floated to the surface. Without recounting, she said, “This elder woman’s eyes have no spirit and her eyeballs tinged with yellow. It looks like something naturally yellow is coating her eyeballs. It’s possibly a bile acid metabolic disorder or a bile leakage. It’s commonly seen with acute icteric hepatitis, bile cysts, biliary tract inflammation, gallstones, roundworms, tumors, and etc. An arbitrary conclusion, however, would be a more bit di?cult to make if it’s just based on a picture...” [1]

“This woman is not young. When one reaches their middle age, yellows spots in the eyes are not uncommon,” Gan Songbai said quietly, pretending to ponder.
Yet Jing Yunzhao shook her head and said, “If it’s because of her age that she has yellow spots caused by her compressed fat, the spots would be located more near the slits of her eyes. However, this woman’s yellowness is obviously more di?used. Plus, her skin tone is obviously di?erent from normal people’s...”
Bile leakage would usually infiltrate the skin, causing the skin to turn yellow. It was rather easy to tell.
Gan Songbai heard this and nodded. He gave Jing Yunzhao a check mark on his paper.
However, Gan Jinchen’s eyes were wide opened.
It must be a lie, right? She was definitely blu?ng, guessing. Or maybe she just happened to have a friend or relative who had this condition. It’s certainly that. Yes!
Gan Jinchen immediately comforted himself. He looked down at the picture in his hands and saw a very beautiful girl. Her face was rosy and also looked very pleasing. But how come he couldn’t see what’s wrong with her?
Staring at that picture, Gan Jinchen blushed. Was grandpa possibly trying to introduce the beautiful girl in this picture to him?
No, no. Grandpa is very upright... but what is this?
Gan Jinchen’s eyebrows creased. He thought about it for a while but then suddenly raised his head, “Grandpa, d-doesn’t she have a fever?”
Gan Songbai’s old face shook, “How are you able to tell?”
As a stubborn old man, Gan Songbai’s words were always spoken in a genteel manner, but he naturally carried a charitable aura of someone who has helped the people and the society. He was also a TCM doctor. Others were unable to find any improperness in his words and instead respected him.
“This person’s face is flushed. She’s also wearing a lot. An acute fever is one thing, but there’s also the possibility that she also has tuberculosis, right?” Gan Jinchen was a little uneasy, unsure.
He had always thought that medicine was very mystical since he was little. He also wanted to be a doctor, but whenever he studied those weird pharmacology, he couldn’t help but feel sleepy.
Gan Songbai shook his head, sighed, and drew a red cross on his paper.
Gan Jinchen’s face was even redder now. He muttered, “Then, what is it?”
“Yunzhao girl, you do it,” Gan Songbai said purposely and passed the picture to Jing Yunzhao.
Jing Yunzhao was stunned but when faced with the unconvinced eyes of Gan Jinchen, she couldn’t help but have the urge to do something evil.
She stared at the picture for a while and said, “She probably has an acute fever. It’s not wrong to call it a fever, but it probably has nothing to do with tuberculosis...”
