In the live stream, all the viewers were watching intently, eager to see if the impromptu problem posed on the spot would stump Li Yi.
Even a high-ranking official at Chongqing University of Traditional Chinese Medicine became nervous.
Li Kaiming, the president of Chongqing University of Traditional Chinese Medicine, said, "This student, Qiao Ya, is really being unreasonable! She took it upon herself to tie the silk thread to the table leg. Isn't that just making things difficult for her? Li Yi is definitely going to make a mistake this time!"
Vice Principal Wang Shanyu chuckled and said, "Principal Li, I think Qiao Ya's move is quite good. If Li Yi is really capable, he wouldn't have failed to detect the pulse being wrong. If he doesn't have real skills, he shouldn't be causing trouble for traditional Chinese medicine culture online."
Yamashiro University.
Zhou Luoxi, who was initially a little jealous, also stared intently at her phone screen.
She was also eager to know the result.
At the scene, Li Yi sometimes frowned and sometimes relaxed his brows.
About two minutes later, Li Yi spoke up: "The pulse diagnosis is over. I can't feel the slightest regularity of a pulse through the silk thread. Either this is a dead person, or the silk thread isn't connected to a living thing! Are you kidding me?"
Seeing that Li Yi had actually taken the pulse, Qiao Ya was so excited that tears welled up in her eyes. She said, "Did you see that? Senior's pulse diagnosis was accurate. He took the pulse. Senior, you were right, we tied the silk thread to the table leg."
Li Yi: "......."
Li Yi shook his head. Xiaoya actually tried to trick me too?!
"I see. That explains why I said there was no pulse."
The viewers in the live stream went wild.
"Wow, that's amazing! They actually managed to take my pulse!"
"Amazing! I always thought pulse diagnosis was a hoax, but it seems it really works!"
"Amazing! I never imagined that traditional Chinese medicine was so profound!"
Li Kaiming, the president of Chongqing University of Traditional Chinese Medicine, and Wang Shanyu, the vice president, both nodded in approval, expressing their affirmation of Li Yi.
After seeing this, Zhou Luoxi finally felt relieved.
However, by sheer coincidence, Li Yi's old rival, Wang Shuai, also saw the live stream.
"Heh, that's it? You wait!"
Wang Shuai immediately posted a caption in the live stream: "A table is an inanimate object, it has no pulse, it's easy to judge. Grab a cat or a dog and let him try!"
As soon as Wang Shuai made this suggestion, it received a lot of responses.
"The suggestion upstairs is excellent! We agree!"
"I also think that if you catch a cat or a dog and let him try, and he can still feel the pulse, then he's really amazing!"
"Holy crap, isn't this a bit too much? Hahaha! But it's so much fun!"
"I'm near the University of Traditional Chinese Medicine in Chongqing. I just happened to be walking my dog. Hehe, let's see if he can recognize that it's my dog."
Qiao Ya was speechless when she saw that everyone still had doubts.
These people are so suspicious!
But it's not their fault; there are tons of fake live streams online these days.
For example, someone might livestream themselves catching eels outdoors. In any case, the livestream camera will never show you the whole scene; you'll only see a mound of earth, and then they'll show you catching an eel.
It's really just a small space set up at home, there's no outdoor activity involved, even the streamers' homes aren't outdoors!
There are too many similar fake live streams, so it's understandable that people are skeptical.
Some of the people who were at the gate of Chongqing University of Traditional Chinese Medicine have already arrived at the live broadcast site.
"Come, come, let me try, see what I can diagnose by taking your pulse?" a man in his fifties said, and sat down in the chair without waiting for a reply.
"Alright, let me take your pulse then."
Zhao Lijuan wrapped the fishing line around his wrist.
Li Yi smiled slightly, appearing calm and composed in the face of the uncle's sudden challenge.
He gently lifted the silk thread, closed his eyes and concentrated, as if engaging in a subtle dialogue with this invisible medium.
The atmosphere in the live stream became tense again, with viewers holding their breath, afraid of missing any detail.
About two minutes later, Li Yi spoke:
"Hmm... Your pulse is steady and strong, indicating that your overall health is good. However, there is also a faint weakness in your pulse, and... well, I think I'd better not say anything more?"
Upon hearing Li Yi's words, the uncle immediately objected: "Heh, you don't know what to say, do you? Just say it!"
Li Yi: "Isn't it inappropriate to have so many people in the live stream?"
Uncle: "What's wrong with it? Tell me!"
The people in the live stream all thought that Li Yi didn't know what to say, so they kept urging him to speak.
Qiao Ya looked at the comments in the live stream and said, "Senior, everyone wants to hear it, so we're asking you to speak."
Li Yi said, "Alright then. I'll tell you. Judging from your pulse, you have erectile dysfunction, commonly known as epilepsy."
Upon hearing this, the middle-aged man's face flushed red. He untied the fishing line and said, "Pah, pah, pah, you're talking nonsense! I'm very strong!"
Li Yi: "He's physically strong, but he's definitely impotent. Am I right?"
The middle-aged man felt extremely embarrassed and said, "Nonsense, nonsense!"
Online, everyone was in stitches.
"Hahaha, look at that uncle's expression, it's totally real! So Dr. Li didn't say anything to protect his privacy!"
"Holy crap, amazing! He can even diagnose a pulse like that!"
"Uncle, it's alright, we have medical treatment, haha!"
"With over 800,000 people watching, this uncle is probably too ashamed to show his face!"
At that moment, a subtitle appeared: "I can attest that what he said is true. I just saw this patient yesterday; he was suffering from erectile dysfunction."
"Pfft!! That's like killing someone with their spirit, Doctor! You have the right to remain silent!"
Doctor: "No, I'm so amazed by the wonders of Traditional Chinese Medicine, how could I not tell you? This young man's pulse diagnosis via the suspended thread is absolutely correct."
