Chapter 541 Qiao Xi, Why Don’t You Give Up Your Rights?
Qiao Xi and Shen Xuanzhi's attention was drawn to it, so they turned around and looked over.
The venue became completely quiet.
Everyone knows that the champion of the needle-testing competition, which is held once every ten years, will be born among these four people.
The seniors, led by Huang Bingyi, were no longer sitting on the jury table, but gathered around the glass sterile room to discuss in low voices. They seemed to be very interested in this patient with narcolepsy.
Lu Bannong, dressed neatly and simply, picked up the microphone and said, "Please keep quiet."
"Next, I will announce the rules of the extra game."
All the cameras in the venue were pointed at him, and there was no extra sound from the audience. Only his voice could be heard in the surrounding sound system.
"The extra round's question is about Ms. Cheng. She is indeed suffering from narcolepsy. We have observed that her sleep cycle is three days. This is the second day she fell into a coma. The remaining four contestants are all carefully selected experts in traditional Chinese medicine. After discussing with the judges, the question I came up with is... wake her up."
"Acupuncture therapy, use your best skills. If you can wake her up, it will be a success."
Wake up?
This can be considered Qiao Xi's specialty.
She first awakened Liu Zongyun who had been in a coma for more than 20 years, and later awakened Shen Xuanzhi's mother.
But...waking someone up requires very delicate techniques, and her arm was injured.
Many people sighed with regret.
Lu Bannong glanced at her and continued, "The acupuncture method for awakening cannot cause any side effects to the patient. It must be an effective treatment. You cannot use unorthodox methods to harm the patient's body. Otherwise, you will be eliminated directly..."
"President Lu, if the first person wakes her up, how will the rest of the game continue?"
Someone raised a question.
Lu Bannong smiled and said, "That's a good question. Our association has already discussed it. If this happens, Mr. Huang will personally set the questions and give the test. It will be absolutely fair and just. With so many media and spectators witnessing this, we will not be perfunctory."
"If there are no further questions, I declare... the needle-testing competition will begin now!"
"Please draw lots!"
The staff placed the lottery bucket in front of them.
Qiao Xi slowly exhaled a breath of foul air and took out a stick!
It’s number four!
Ranked last!
This is not a good sign!
The number 4 lottery ticket was magnified by a close-up lens and projected onto a large screen.
There were bursts of discussion in the audience.
"Number Four! It seems she has really bad luck."
"The competitions during this period have changed my view of Chinese medicine apprentices. But when I think about her quitting the Chinese medicine world if she loses, I feel it's a pity! The Chinese medicine world seems to have lost another amazing talent! Was the north-south division a good or bad thing?"
"It's fate. Luck is also a kind of strength. You can't blame others."
"Lu Yingxue is better than her in every aspect, so it's no surprise that she won the competition! Don't expect too much from Qiao Xi just because she is a disciple of a traditional Chinese doctor! I think it's suspense!"
The results of the lottery came out quickly, and everyone's serial number was announced on the screen one by one.
Lot number one is Shen Xuanzhi.
The number two pick is Lu Yingxue!
The number three draw is Xiang Mingzhu!
"Okay, now that everyone has drawn lots, please move to the sterile room to observe the patients and give them injections to wake them up. Each person has half an hour to do so. Please..."
"I waive my rights."
Before Lu Bannong could finish his words, he was interrupted by Shen Xuanzhi.
His face was pale, and there was a lingering gloom in his eyes and brows.
He said again: "I give up! I have no knowledge of narcolepsy, and I am not sure I can wake this patient up. In order to prevent her body from being damaged, I will not give her an acupuncture."
He has learned about 70% of the Shen family's bird pecking technique, but he is not even as proficient as Qiao Xi.
When his mother fell ill and needed to be awakened, he was completely helpless and had to ask Qiao Xi for help.
Now your efforts will not be in vain!
He had completed his goal by entering the top ten in the needle testing competition and winning a prize of 200,000 yuan. He also finally stood in front of the enemies of the Shen family and saw with his own eyes how glorious they were now!
There is a huge difference between us and we still have a long way to go!
He wanted revenge, but he couldn't do it on his own.
Shen Xuanzhi caught a glimpse of Qiao Xi out of the corner of his eye. She was the only one with a glimmer of hope!
"Shen Xuanzhi has chosen to give up!" Lu Bangnong said loudly, "If you are not sure, please focus on the patient's body. Don't be stubborn. This is not only a competition, but also a matter of precious life!"
"Sometimes giving up is better than choosing!"
He gave some exhortations and then let the remaining three people enter the glass sterile room.
Lu Yingxue and Xiang Mingzhu entered one after another, and Qiao Xi came last.
The three of them walked in and the glass door behind them was closed.
It was very quiet in this enclosed space, and there was no radio on site.
The audience outside could not hear what they said, but could only see their lips moving and their movements in high definition on the big screen.
Xiang Mingzhu became even more reckless and provoked Qiao Xi: "How about you give up your power too? That idiot Shen Xuanzhi didn't even dare to try and just gave up! It seems that he still has some self-awareness. It's not like you are so shameless that you have to wait until the last minute."
"Mingzhu! Don't be rude!"
Lu Yingxue acted like an elder and scolded, "This is a competition, there are so many spectators watching you outside."
"Cousin, you better hurry up and give the acupuncture. Each person is limited to half an hour."
Xiang Mingzhu's attitude towards Lu Yingxue was no longer as respectful.
Something has changed!
She has become much more rampant!
Lu Yingxue felt somewhat dissatisfied, and thought that after the competition she would definitely ask her uncle to discipline Xiang Mingzhu and make her suffer.
Now we should focus on the overall situation!
"Mingzhu, I'm afraid there is no room for you to perform. This extra game will only take half an hour..."
Lu Yingxue said in a cold tone.
Her father taught her and Xiang Mingzhu the acupuncture techniques to wake up patients with narcolepsy.
As soon as the order of the draw was announced, she was ranked before Xiang Mingzhu, which meant that any bad intentions Xiang Mingzhu had were doomed to be in vain!
Lu Yingxue took a deep breath and raised her hand to the camera to indicate that she was ready. The timer started counting down for half an hour.
She took out a set of gold needles, opened the needle bag, and performed a series of smooth movements full of beauty.
It doesn't feel like acupuncture, but more like a performance.
But many people fall for Lu Yingxue's tricks. She's good at superficial work, and her acupuncture skills are even better!
Lu Yingxue looked focused as she took out a long needle and prepared to insert it into the Baihui acupoint of the unconscious Ms. Cheng.
The movement is sluggish!
She was stunned!
She started sewing again, but her fingers felt itchy and she couldn't even hold the needle.
It fell directly to the ground!
What's going on?
Lu Yingxue can't even hold a needle?
Everyone's eyes were fixed on her, and many doubts flashed through her mind.
