Chapter 495 - Four Methods to Diagnose a Disease (1/2)

Chapter 495 Four Methods to Diagnose a Disease

Hearing the rules, the contestants nodded.

Five minutes!

It didn’t normally take that long to see a patient, but it was a competition. And this time the contestants not only saw a patient but also wrote down what they found by using the four methods. So five minutes was a reasonable time limit.

The host turned to the 15 contestants and asked, “Contestants, are you all clear on the rules?”

“Yes.”

The 15 contestants nodded at the same time.

“Good.”

The host nodded in satisfaction and said, “Next, draw lots!”

As soon as these words were spoken, a staff member immediately held a lottery box, went onto the stage, and handed it to the host. The host held it in front of the 15 contestants and asked them to draw lots one by one.

Soon, the draw was done.

Fang Qiu picked number five and Jiang Miaoyu picked number two.

“Who got number one?” inquired the host.

“Me!”

A voice came, and everyone turned their eyes to the source.

Luo Jie stood out with a round piece of paper about the size of a ping pong ball.

Everyone looked at it carefully, and saw “1” written on it.

When Luo Jie stepped out, there was an immediate uproar.

“Luo Jie?”

“This guy seems strong.”

“I remember when they picked herbs in the mountain forest, he was second only to Fang Qiu, and even Li Sanxiao, the best among the inheritors of the four big families in herbal medicine, couldn’t beat him.”

“There are rumors on the Internet that the four big families are nothing. The best are Fang Qiu and Luo Jie.”

“Even though both Fang Qiu and Luo Jie are capable, the game is just beginning. Every game is different. It’s still hard to tell which of them is better in this situation.”

…

Compared with the audience, the contestants on the stage looked very calm.

In their eyes, it didn’t make any difference to them who was the first one to play. These people, making it all the way into the national top 15, had absolute confidence and super strength. Even if they thought some of them were strong, they would never say it or show it. After all, they all had their own pride.

“Number one, Luo Jie,” the host shouted, “get ready.”

Luo Jie didn’t hesitate to step off the stage and walk to a small stage on the side. There was a room that had been prepared, where the volunteer patient had been waiting inside.

“Start the clock!”

Just as Luo Jie entered the room, the host gave the order.

The big screen on the main stage flickered and jumped to a scene timed from zero.

Beyond that, there was no information.

Everyone at the scene waited quietly. No one knew what Luo Jie was doing in the room.

However, while everyone was waiting boringly, and the timer on the big screen showed four minutes and 20 seconds, a little noise went off.

“Dong!”

The clock on the big screen suddenly stopped moving.

When everyone looked around, they saw that Luo Jie had come out of the room on the side stage and was walking to the main stage with an easy look on his face. Under the direction of the host, he came to the area opposite to the contestants and sat down.

Apparently, the program group wanted to keep contestants who had entered the room from revealing information to others.

At this time, seeing the time on the big screen, everyone was surprised.

None of them expected Luo Jie to be so fast.

Although these contestants all thought that they would not use up the five minutes, the average person couldn’t make it with 40 seconds left.

For a while, the rest of the contestants grew a little bit competitive.

After all, everyone was strong.

They were so familiar with the Four Methods to Diagnose a Disease that it was almost impossible to make a mistake.

In this case, the length of time was likely to be the deciding factor. So everyone was gearing up for the competition.

“Next, number two, Jiang Miaoyu,” the host shouted.

Hearing his voice, Jiang Miaoyu got up at once.

There was a cheer from the audience.

In the second episode, Jiang Miaoyu’s performance left a deep impression on everyone. Plus her beautiful face that people couldn’t get tired of, inadvertently Jiang Miaoyu had her own fans, although the population was small.

Later, Jiang Miaoyu entered the room for assessment.

In everyone’s expectation, the time on the screen went to four minutes and 41 seconds when Jiang Miaoyu came out.

The first thing she did when she left the room was to look at the big screen on the main stage.

Seeing the time on the big screen, Jiang Miaoyu felt bitter and shook her head.

Four minutes and 41 seconds.

It was as fast as she could.

But she was still defeated by Luo Jie by 21 seconds.

When she left the stage and sat down, she took a look at Luo Jie sitting next to her, sighing, “He deserves to be the apprentice of a holy doctor. I’m no match for him.”

Meanwhile, everyone else was surprised.

Jiang Miaoyu spent 21 seconds longer than Luo Jie did?

What was going on here?

From the previous performance, Jiang Miaoyu was not as strong as Luo Jie in competition, but the gap should not be so big. After all, Jiang Miaoyu came from a family of traditional Chinese Medicine.

Of course, it was not known that Luo Jie was the apprentice of Holy Doctor Chu; otherwise, no one would be so surprised.

As soon as Jiang Miaoyu sat down, the host shouted, “Next, number three, Leng Wenzhuo.”

There was a great stir in the studio again.
