Chapter 321: The Furious Gu Family and Qin Family (3)
Therefore, An Yiqing concluded that there must be something wrong with Duan Jingning’s body!
After the dishes were served, and seeing that Duan Jingning didn’t drink the soup or eat any fruits, and that he only ate the dry yam soup that she had served, An Yiqing took a closer look at his complexion and the color of the lines on his palms. She was roughly able to diagnose him with a thirst affliction!
The thirst affliction, as the name suggests, is characterized by severe thirst. However, those suffering from it cannot drink too much water, otherwise, they would become incontinent. This disease only exists in legends, and very few people suffer from it. According to modern medicine, this disease is incurable. In fact, most doctors have never even heard of this disease and simply regard it as a joke. In reality, the disease is caused by a disruption of the body’s internal functions, but it is not just any disruption. The medical knowledge required to treat such a disease is unimaginably profound.
Upon hearing An Yiqing’s words, Duan Jingning was startled and cried out in surprise, "How did you know?!"
"Elder Duan, since you came in, you have only taken one sip of tea, and you didn’t even touch the broth in the yam soup. Combined with your complexion and the color of the lines on your palms, there is no doubt that you have the thirst affliction," An Yiqing said with a slight smile, confidently.
Duan Jingning was stunned, and so was Ma Tianci. They had not expected that just a few actions and a complexion could reveal one’s illness.
