Chapter 679: Your Kidneys Are No Good

"Whether I'm talking nonsense or not, you know in your own heart, don't you? Your sexual performance is short, every time you finish in a rush, and lately, you haven't even had any thoughts in that regard for how many days?" Chen Yu smiled, and he waved his hand to write down a prescription: "Nourishing Liver and Kidney Prescription. If you believe it, take it and go; if you don't, just consider me a fraud."

"But don't blame me for not warning you. Your innate kidney Qi is insufficient, you are already worse off than the average person, and on top of that, you are excessive in your lust. If you don't use my prescription to nourish your kidney Qi, within half a year, you will be a useless person." Chen Yu placed the prescription on the table and glanced at him sideways.

"This, this..." The big man was a bit stunned. Honestly, he didn't know whether he should believe Chen Yu's words or not, so he looked toward Zhu Lao on the side for help.

Zhu Yiwen picked up Chen Yu's prescription, then nodded slightly and said, "Little Chen is right. Your illness won't last half a year."

"Ah?" The big man's face was full of shock. He hurriedly stepped forward, carefully took Chen Yu's prescription, and then ran off in a flash.

"Isn't this that coach from such-and-such fitness club? I heard he's a player."

"That's him. He hasn't caused little trouble for the female students, has he?"

"He looks quite sturdy, but I didn't expect him to be a silver-spear wax head—good to look at but useless." A group of people whispered.

This time, the expression on Zhu Yiwen's face as he looked at Chen Yu had changed slightly. He stood up, bowed slightly to Chen Yu, and said, "So you are a master. I was truly disrespectful just now."

"I wouldn't call myself a master, I just happen to understand Traditional Chinese Medicine. Now that I've said Traditional Chinese Medicine is my area of expertise, Zhu Lao should believe me, right?" Chen Yu smiled.

"I believe it. Sigh, you are so young, yet your medical skills are so high. It was this old man who was rude just now." Zhu Yiwen nodded slightly toward Chen Yu and said, "I wonder if Little Chen knows the legendary technique of Qi Observation and Diagnosis? Otherwise, why would you be able to know the location of the illness without looking, listening, asking, or feeling the pulse?"

"That's right, it is Qi Observation and Diagnosis." Chen Yu nodded.

"Really? This is actually real?" Zhu Yiwen's expression froze, and then a glimmer of excitement appeared in his eyes: "Mr. Chen, I was truly disrespectful just now. I wonder if Mr. Chen could come to my humble abode for a sit-down so we can discuss the Dao of Medicine together?"

"Alright." Chen Yu nodded and agreed.

The onlookers were even more stunned, as everyone knew that Zhu Yiwen held the title of Medicine King.

If it weren't for his concern for the common people, which kept him from joining the Imperial Hospital, the Imperial Hospital would currently have four Heads of the Imperial Hospital.

Yet no one expected that such an impressive figure would concede so quickly. It seems this unremarkable-looking Chen Yu is not simple.

Thinking of the cold sarcasm they had directed at Chen Yu just moments ago, these people felt ashamed. Truly, one should not judge a person by their appearance.

Nearby was the largest Traditional Chinese Medicine clinic of the Zhu Family's Xianzhi Hall.

The Zhu Family's Xianzhi Hall is a brand, and under this brand, over ten types of Chinese patent medicines have excellent effects and are bestsellers both at home and abroad.

Moreover, the Zhu Family itself originated from the Traditional Chinese Medicine business; their ancestors were almost all famous doctors for generations. Furthermore, by Zhu Yiwen's generation, he had even earned the title of Medicine King of Shengjing.

Therefore, Xianzhi Hall is a living signboard, famous throughout Jing.

The third floor of Xianzhi Hall is an antique-style tea room. Usually, Zhu Yiwen cooks tea and reads books here, and his bookshelves are filled with medical texts.

"Mr. Chen, please." Zhu Yiwen politely invited Chen Yu to sit down; his form of address for Chen Yu had changed.

"Zhu Lao, please." Chen Yu nodded and sat down.

Zhu Yiwen personally prepared the tea. A moment later, a cup of clear tea was placed in front of Chen Yu. Zhu Yiwen smiled and said, "Mr. Chen, this is my clumsy tea art, please don't mind it."

Chen Yu smiled, picked up the tea, sniffed it at his nose, took a light sip, then closed his eyes and pondered for a moment before saying, "Zhu Lao's cup of tea is something an ordinary person would likely find hard to drink."

"How so?" Zhu Yiwen raised his eyes to look at Chen Yu.

"The tea leaves are top-grade Maofeng, and the roasting process is special. Rare health-preserving medicines like Zhixian Grass and Mingjue Seed should have been added during the roasting process. It has the effect of nourishing the five viscera and benefiting the kidneys and skin." Chen Yu put down the tea and smiled.

"Mr. Chen's insights into pharmacology are indeed beyond what an ordinary person can compare to. This old man admires you. Just now, I truly had eyes but failed to recognize Mount Tai. May I ask which master Mr. Chen studied under?" Zhu Yiwen's gaze toward Chen Yu had changed.

Chen Yu had only tasted it once, yet he could discern the pharmacology and medical principles contained in this health-preserving tea. He was indeed extraordinary.

"My master's name has never been known to the public, so even if I told you, Zhu Lao wouldn't know it." Chen Yu smiled and said, "Regardless of who I studied under, I learned these medical skills to treat illnesses and save people."

"A doctor should conduct themselves with a heart to save the world and practice medicine with benevolence."

"Good, well said." Zhu Yiwen couldn't help but applaud. He sighed, "It is truly rare for Mr. Chen to have such insights at such a young age. If there were more young people like Mr. Chen in this world, there would be hope for Traditional Chinese Medicine."

"Haha, Zhu Lao is anxious about the current state of modern young people and also anxious about the state of Traditional Chinese Medicine. You view this world with a benevolent heart, not wanting young people to be drained of all their vitality by the rhythm of modern life, nor willing to see Traditional Chinese Medicine gradually decline."

"But in my view, Zhu Lao is being a bit too attached."

"Me? Attached?" Zhu Yiwen looked at Chen Yu with a puzzled expression.

"Yes. The Heavenly Dao is sincere, and growth is ceaseless. The lives of young people are merely adapting to this society; there is nothing wrong with that. Moreover, although Traditional Chinese Medicine is declining, it is still passed down in the world. The five-thousand-year Huaxia civilization still exists, which is already very rare."

"As long as someone remembers Traditional Chinese Medicine, and as long as the theories of Traditional Chinese Medicine continue to circulate, then Traditional Chinese Medicine cannot be considered in decline. Therefore, Zhu Lao does not need to be attached to the fact that the current state of Traditional Chinese Medicine is not as good as Western Medicine." Chen Yu smiled.

Zhu Yiwen remained silent. Chen Yu's words were like a sudden enlightenment, making him understand instantly. After a long while, he murmured, "Yes, yes. With Mr. Chen saying this, I have truly understood."

"Haha, as long as the heritage remains and the Huaxia Dragon Vein continues to flow endlessly, I was indeed too attached." Zhu Yiwen stood up and bowed slightly to Chen Yu with cupped hands: "Thank you, Mr. Chen, for your guidance."

"I wouldn't dare call it guidance, but Zhu Lao's benevolent heart truly makes me admire you." Chen Yu smiled: "I have some insights into Traditional Chinese Medicine. The Zhu Family is an Aristocratic Family of Traditional Chinese Medicine. It is rumored that the Zhu Family possesses an ancestral golden prescription called 'Danlu', which records many medical principles and prescriptions not found elsewhere in the world."

"If Zhu Lao trusts me, we can discuss the golden prescription and medicine in Danlu."

"This..." Zhu Yiwen's expression changed slightly. The 'Danlu' prescription passed down by the Zhu Family contains records of over a hundred prescriptions.

These prescriptions are all miraculous formulas recorded by ancestors that have not been passed down to the world. The best-selling Chinese patent medicines of the Zhu Family's Xianzhi Hall brand all come from this prescription, and it is not convenient to share them with outsiders.
