Pi Yangyang did not answer directly, but asked: "Look at his abdomen, is it swollen?"

Ma Shixuan took a look at the patient's abdomen, nodded and said, "That's right."

"His abdomen is swollen and feels hard when you press it, right?"

Pi Yangyang asked again.

Ma Shichu hesitated for a moment, and Lu Xiuran said, "Yes, his abdomen has been swollen for more than a month, and it is indeed as hard as a rock when pressed. But the hospital used modern instruments to check and found nothing wrong."

Ma Shixuan said: "It is not surprising that a deficiency of spleen and stomach may also cause abdominal distension."

Pi Yangyang shook his head slightly, walked over with a faint smile, and said, "Grandpa, do you have a habit of drinking?"

The old man nodded and said, "I have been drinking it for decades."

"Well, may I ask what you do for a living and where have you been recently, such as places with water?"

Pi Yangyang reached out and pressed the old man's abdomen twice, then asked again.

"I live in the countryside. My family has a fish pond and we make a living from it."

The old man frowned and answered with some difficulty.

Ma Shixuan couldn't help but chuckle and said, "Young man, when you treat a patient, do you still need to ask what he does?"

Pi Yangyang glanced at him and ignored him, then asked the old man again, "You like to eat things from the water, right? Like snails, eels, bullfrogs, etc?"

"Yes, yes, I love eating snails very much. I often go to the pond to catch some to eat with wine..."

The old man nodded repeatedly.

Pi Yangyang smiled calmly and said, "That's right."

Ma Shixuan was puzzled and said with a hint of sarcasm in his tone, "You've been asking for a long time, but you still can't tell me what disease he has?"

Pi Yangyang said: "He has bloating because he drank excessively for a long time without restraint. In addition, some of the snails he ate were not fully cooked. He ate the parasites that live in the snails, which caused damage to his liver and spleen, stagnation of qi and blood, and water retention in the abdomen, resulting in abdominal distension and unbearable pain. Because of this, he had stomach discomfort and food reflux, so he vomited everything he ate."

Everyone on and off the stage was stunned.

Many people did not understand this disease. They looked at Lu Xiuran in confusion, waiting for him to make a judgment.

"You...you are just talking nonsense, right? If he has worms in his stomach, why didn't the CT scan show it?"

Mao Deyong said with a look of astonishment.

Ma Shixuan was so shocked that he even broke out in a cold sweat on his back.

If the patient's symptoms were really as Pi Yangyang described, then he, a miracle doctor from a family of traditional Chinese medicine, would have made a big joke.

"Yes, he underwent a comprehensive examination at the hospital. If he had worms in his stomach, wouldn't they be able to detect it?"

After hearing what Mao Deyong said, he immediately asked with deep agreement.

Pi Yangyang smiled softly and shook his head. Just as he was about to answer, Lu Xiuran suddenly said in astonishment: "Mr. Pi is right! Ascites is one of the difficult and complicated diseases in traditional Chinese medicine and is very rare. The symptoms of this old man are indeed consistent with..."

As soon as these words came out, the whole place fell into silence.

"Is there really such a thing as distension? I am so ignorant of this."

Someone shook his head and sighed, with a look of surprise and doubt on his face.

"President Lu is not sure either, but he thinks it should be right..."

"I think what Dr. Mao said makes sense. If this person really has worms in his stomach, how come they can't be found out during the examination?"

"Do you think those cold machines are omnipotent? There are many diseases that machines may not be able to detect, but we Chinese medicine practitioners can diagnose them."

Huang Lianshui heard these people's discussions and couldn't help but speak proudly from the side.

His words immediately attracted many people to nod.

"If you really give him this medicine, as long as he drinks it, he will die in pain within three days. Master Ma, do you want to try it?"

Pi Yangyang looked at Ma Shiqi and spoke slowly.

Ma Shixuan's expression became a little hesitant and he did not answer immediately.

At this time, the old man's son said, "Aren't all of you miracle doctors here? How come you have different diagnoses?"

Lu Xiuran said: "It is normal for doctors to have different diagnoses. The main reason is that your father's disease is very rare and cannot be diagnosed by modern technology, so don't worry, we will have a treatment plan."

"So... should we use this prescription or not?"

The man asked again suspiciously.

Ma Shixuan said quickly: "This young man said that your father's illness was not the result of my diagnosis. If this prescription is used on your father, not only will it not cure his illness, it may also cost him his life. So... you should just see how this young man treats it?"

The old man's son immediately looked at Pi Yangyang and asked, "Are you...are you sure?"

Pi Yangyang said calmly: "It's not difficult. However, he was not originally my patient, so it is up to you to decide who to choose to treat your father."

Ma Shixuan rushed to say: "Let him try. If he can be cured, then my diagnosis is wrong. If he can't be cured, you can use my prescription again..."

Pi Yangyang couldn't help but raise the corner of his mouth slightly, and said without hesitation: "Okay."

He knew that by doing this, Ma Shixuan was actually still doubting Pi Yangyang's diagnosis.

If Pi Yangyang fails to cure the disease, he will be able to ridicule and belittle Pi Yangyang's medical skills.

"Okay, then please let Mr. Pi treat it first."

The old man's son thought about it and nodded.

Pi Yangyang said: "Have someone prepare a basin and a bottle of drinking water."

Lu Xiuran immediately asked the staff to prepare, and soon, a plastic basin and a bottle of mineral water were delivered to the stage.

Pi Yangyang took out the golden needles, looked at them intently, and inserted three golden needles into the old man's liver and abdomen, forming a triangle.

Then, he gently twisted the golden needle and slowly inserted it deeper and deeper.

The needle was inserted very slowly. It took a full minute for the nine-point-long needle to be inserted only three-tenths of the way in.

Suddenly, Ai Qiuming said in astonishment: "Look at his belly!"

Lu Xiuran, Mao Deyong, and Ma Shixun all looked at the old man's abdomen in shock.

I saw that under his belly, which was originally as hard as a rock, tight and swollen, there seemed to be something wriggling!

Seeing this scene, these people were stunned and their scalps went numb involuntarily.

There is something under the old man's belly, and it's alive!

After twisting it for three minutes, Pi Yangyang said to the old man's son, "Hold him and let him bend over."

The old man’s son hurried forward, supported the old man, and slowly bent down.

Pi Yangyang quickly pulled out the three gold needles, and the old man retched. Then, a stream of turbid liquid gushed out of his mouth and fell into the plastic basin.

What he vomited was a stream of dark green liquid, which soon filled up half the basin.

Pi Yangyang placed his left hand on the old man's back and rubbed it gently.

The old man vomited for more than a minute before he stopped. He looked exhausted and sat down dejectedly on the chair.

"Okay, rinse his mouth."

Pi Yangyang said calmly.

The old man's son quickly unscrewed the bottle of mineral water and rinsed the old man's mouth.

There was an unpleasant smell on the stage, which made Mao Deyong and others frown.

"Look, there's something moving in the basin. It's a bug. It's really a bug!"

Ai Qiu Ming exclaimed again.

Everyone in the audience stood up and looked at the stage in amazement.

Lu Xiuran stared at the basin, nodded and said, "Yes, something is moving. It seems...Mr. Pi's diagnosis is completely correct."

Ma Shixuan's face became more and more ugly, and even his hands were shaking with anger.

The old man sat on the chair, rinsed his mouth, let out a long breath and said, "I feel better."

Pi Yangyang said: "Now I am just cleaning out the dirt in your stomach, but during this period of time, those bugs have bitten a lot of places in your body. So, I have to prescribe you a dose of medicine. You need to take it for five days before you can be completely healed."

"Okay, okay, please ask the little doctor to prescribe medicine for my dad, thank you so much..."

The old man's son looked grateful and kept bowing to Pi Yangyang.

Pi Yangyang turned his head and glanced at Ma Shixuan, then smiled calmly and said, "Do you still need a follow-up visit?"

Ma Shixun said with a face full of shame: "No need, Ma is not a good student, I give up!"
