Chapter 53: Chapter 53: The Ancestral Supreme Simplicity Pulse Technique
Mr. Cao’s eyes rolled back, and he collapsed on the sickbed, gasping for breath.
“Mr., Mr. Cao, are you, are you okay!”
Xia Xin was terrified and quickly went over to help Mr. Cao up.
Clamping his teeth, Mr. Cao struggled to say, “Master, I know I have offended you with my words before, but, but you can’t just make things up and curse me!”
Jiangli cocked her head, not understanding, and asked, “Why do you think I am cursing you? Do you think you’re worth me holding such a grudge against you?”
Xia Xin chuckled dryly and said softly, “Well, Mr. Cao, our Abbot may be a bit blunt, but she would never deceive anyone, let alone make up facts… ”
Mr. Cao clenched his teeth fiercely, “Could it be that what you’re saying is true? That’s impossible, I have three children, three! How could it be that I have not a single child? If those three children are not mine, whose are they?!”
“Give me your hand.” Jiangli suddenly said.
Mr. Cao, upon hearing her abrupt change of topic, was stunned: “…Eh?”
Jiangli said expressionlessly, “I will take your pulse.”
Xia Xin came to a realization, “Right, right, right! I almost forgot, Mr. Cao, our Xuanmen has always been skilled in medicine, with nearly everyone having some medical knowledge. If you don’t believe us, you can let our Abbot take your pulse, and maybe she’ll discover something.”
Mr. Cao really didn’t want to believe their words and would rather think they were talking nonsense.
But what if those three children really weren’t his?
Thinking about this and the 1.6 million he had spent, he gritted his teeth and still extended his right hand.
Jiangli’s fingers immediately rested on his wrist, and in a place invisible to others, she concentrated a trace of Spiritual Energy, which followed Mr. Cao’s skin and probed into his meridians.
Just now, Xia Xin was correct about one thing, ‘ninety percent of Xuanmen are physicians.’
Almost everyone in Xuanmen practices medicine.
But that’s not the whole story.
In Xuanmen, there actually exists a special profession, that is the Taoist Doctor.
To enter the path through medical skills, using Spiritual Energy to diagnose through the pulse and Talisman Paper as a support in treatment, that is a Taoist Doctor.
Among the Taoist Doctors, the most famous is the Supreme Simplicity Pulse Technique.
Traditional Chinese medicine believes there is only one main pulse on the wrist, with three positions on this main pulse, and each position has three pulse variations. Thus, the main pulse has a total of nine pulse variations, and Chinese medicine diagnoses illnesses by examining the different manifestations of these nine pulse variations.
The Supreme Simplicity Pulse Technique adds two more pulses compared to the traditional Chinese pulse taking, besides the main pulse on the wrist, there are the Dragon Pulse and the Tiger Pulse on both sides, each with three variations in their pulses.
Therefore, the Supreme Simplicity Pulse Technique has a total of 27 pulse variations, which is three times more pulse information than in Chinese pulse diagnosis, enabling it to reveal much more from the pulse.
For instance, it can pinpoint the precise location and shape of the illness and determine the Yin and Yang of the disease, the good and bad fortunes, and the direction of one’s life, and so on.
Hence, the Supreme Simplicity Pulse can be used to predict a person’s status and fortunes, and is also known as the “Immortal’s Pulse.”
The Supreme Simplicity Pulse is divided into: Pathological Pulse Technique, Psychological Pulse Technique, Eight Trigrams Pulse Technique, Nine Palaces Pulse Technique, Image Number Pulse Technique, Liu Ren Pulse Array, Feng Shui Pulse Technique, Qimen Pulse Technique, Purple Star Astrology Pulse Technique, and many others.
Jiangli had practiced the Supreme Simplicity Pulse before, and when facial features alone were uncertain, coupled with palmistry or the Supreme Simplicity Pulse, she could be one hundred percent certain.
The Supreme Simplicity Pulse is more accurate than general fortune-telling and can even reveal specific events that will occur at certain points in a person’s life.
Jiangli wanted to see exactly what was wrong with Mr. Cao.
