"How is that possible!"
Old Wang gritted his teeth and sneered, "Since you've put it that way, it wouldn't be good for us to refuse."
"However, to prevent anyone from saying that we are bullying the younger generation, we will only compare your score with the one with the best score."
"Old Wang, this... isn't quite right."
One of the judges frowned and looked at Old Wang before speaking.
Their agreement to this competition was already suspected of bullying the younger generation, but now it's not just a suspicion anymore. In this situation, shouldn't they have chosen the one with the worst record?
But before he could speak again, Lin Yang couldn't wait any longer.
"There's nothing wrong with that, let's start the game."
After Lin Yang finished speaking, he gently shook the bamboo tube in his hand. The bamboo tube rattled, and Lin Yang pulled one of the tubes out.
"skin disease."
Lin Yang raised an eyebrow and muttered to himself, "That simple?"
He had initially thought it might involve some kind of difficult or complicated illness.
"Skin diseases aren't so easy to look at! We must accurately state the specific name of the patient's condition and explain the treatment plan!"
Since becoming a doctor, he has been a member of the expert team for dermatology transfer. Old Liu proudly stated that he is an absolute expert in this field, as he has been listed on Baidu.
"Is that so?" Lin Yang smiled noncommittally and looked at the judging panel.
"How can we compare these things? Is it enough to just say it out loud?"
"Although the first step is just a face-to-face consultation, it would be even better if you could cure the disease, and your score would be higher."
However, considering that any illness takes time to heal, this competition is more about comparing the experts' understanding and knowledge of various difficult and complicated cases.
Lin Yang nodded knowingly.
"In that case, let's start selecting patients."
The judges nodded and led Lin Yang to the area where patients were being selected.
The patients lay quietly on the bed, some sleeping peacefully, others still groaning in pain.
These people are all sick but have no money for treatment. They are participating in this competition, even though they are just being used as guinea pigs by the contestants.
But after that, regardless of which side wins, they can receive free treatment.
Therefore, all of them participated in the treatment voluntarily.
Suddenly, Lin Yang's eyes narrowed. He saw a patient lying there with his whole body covered in bruises and countless red rashes of all sizes on his face and body, struggling to breathe.
"I want to heal him!"
Lin Yang pointed at the patient and addressed the judging panel.
The judges looked at Lin Yang in surprise: "Are you sure?"
This is the most serious illness they have here; the cause is unknown, and only a rough diagnosis can be made.
It even became so serious that it threatened lives.
There are many loopholes that can be exploited in the process of selecting patients.
For example, if you choose a patient with milder symptoms, you can describe the symptoms more specifically, which increases your chances of winning.
However, since everyone cares about their image, very few people would actually do that.
Therefore, to prevent bias or tampering by the judging panel, in traditional Chinese medicine competitions like these, doctors choose their own patients.
The judging panel will score patients based on the severity of their symptoms, after the doctor has selected and treated them.
But this was the first time they had encountered a major problem right from the start.
Lin Yang nodded firmly and looked at the judges.
"Is it against the rules for me to treat him directly?"
The judges were still somewhat stunned, and nodded slightly.
"However, we still need to have a face-to-face consultation to identify the problem before proceeding with treatment."
Lin Yang responded.
Lin Yang had already chosen his patients.
The other three elderly experts exchanged glances, abandoned their more promising patients, and each chose a patient they believed was about as difficult to treat as Lin Yang's choice.
Lin Yang looked at one of the patients chosen by Elder Wang and spoke calmly.
"He doesn't have a skin disease."
"His problem stems from other medical conditions."
Old Wang was stunned for a moment before he realized that Lin Yang was talking to him, and he snorted coldly.
"Ha, although I'm not a dermatologist, I've practiced medicine for many years. How could I not even know what disease the patient has?"
Seeing that Elder Wang did not believe him, Lin Yang shook his head and said no more.
Old Wang snorted coldly.
After the four participants had each chosen their patients, the referee announced the official start of the competition.
Lin Yang's expression instantly turned serious, even though he already knew the answer in his heart.
But I still lifted the patient's clothes to take a closer look.
As he expected, the patient's skin was not only ulcerated and covered with blisters, but also had some rotten pustules and many red pimples.
With so many skin conditions combined, it's difficult to provide a treatment plan based solely on a face-to-face consultation.
Old Liu glanced at Lin Yang indifferently, his aged face radiating confidence.
He had worked in dermatology for nearly sixty years, and today he was going to teach Lin Yang a lesson about what it meant to be humble and respectful when facing the elderly.
Just as Old Liu had already awakened how ugly Lin Yang's expression was after he was defeated.
Lin Yang calmly raised his hand.
"I've decided."
"What?"
Old Liu stared wide-eyed in shock. How much time had passed? Only a dozen seconds.
Although a typical treatment for a patient takes only a dozen seconds.
But the patient in front of Lin Yang was not an ordinary patient.
Instead, he is a complex skin patient who suffers from numerous skin diseases, someone who would be troubled for a long time even if given the task.
