As a family that practiced medicine for generations, the Liu family had also specifically studied the feasibility of using the "Suspended Silk Pulse Detector". The answer was obviously no.

In the period of the feudal society of Huaxia, there was indeed a method of diagnosis for the suspended thread. In the feudal society, men and women were not close, and in order to avoid suspicion, one end of the thread was placed on the wrist of the female patient, while the other end was grasped by the doctor. The doctor had to rely on the pulse fluctuations transmitted from the suspended thread to sense and guess the pulse patterns to diagnose the disease.

Later on, the term "suspense pulse" was quoted as saying: there was no speculation that had actually been investigated.

The reason why there was such a modern concept was because this kind of method was not reliable at all. However, the reason why this sort of thing could be used by swindlers to deceive ignorant commoners was because history truly did exist, and most of it happened in wealthy families, or even in the imperial palace's imperial harem. Later generations through the popular interpretation, especially the modern television dramas of the exaggeration, so that this technique has been dyed in a mysterious color.

The imperial physicians first started with the eunuchs and maids by the empress's side, and secretly stuffed some silver taels in to inquire about the illness. Through them, one could find out more about the illness, such as master's complexion, body pain, diet, defecation, etc.

On this issue, not only had the Liu Family thoroughly studied it, but they had also discussed it with other people in the Chinese medicine field. The experts all agreed that the filament was easily affected by the air current and could not transmit the patient's pulse acutely and accurately to the other side. Furthermore, the healer Pulse Cutting Technique could only detect the speed and speed of the pulse.

It could be seen from this, that the Suspending Silk Meridian was simply nonsense, it was simply impossible to achieve the goal of treating the patient. Now, this ignorant Xu Lang actually dared to challenge him, it was truly laughable!

Liu Simiao was naturally full of confidence. He immediately made a request to Chu Qingyao and Chu Qingyao, not to mention any details about Grandma Chu's condition, and asked Grandfather Chu to prepare a good thread. Even if it was Sky Worm Silk, as long as Xu Lang opened his mouth, he had to think of a way to satisfy's request.

Unexpectedly, Xu Lang boasted shamelessly, "There's no need for such expensive threads, just an ordinary rope will do!"

God! This fellow was getting more and more outrageous! Just the Suspending Silk Meridian was already long enough, yet this fellow said that he was relying on a normal rope. Shen Yuruo and the others thought that they misheard, so they hurriedly went to advise Xu Lang not to speak nonsense!

But Liu Simiao was not willing to let this chance go, he immediately grabbed the opportunity and anxiously said: "Alright, since you want to lift a rock to smash your own foot, then we will not be polite, I will immediately prepare a rope for you!"

When he entered earlier, Liu Simiao discovered that there was a thick rope in the courtyard to dry clothes, and it had been used for a long time, he actually untied it himself and passed it over to Xu Lang, smiling as he said, "Please!"

As the host, Chu Qingyao was slightly unhappy about everything that happened in front of him. How could Grandma's sickness allow outsiders to amuse her with the wager she received? She hated it when people did this, especially this Liu Simiao.

Of course, the current Chu Qingyao was also very dissatisfied with Xu Lang's arrogance, how could he use such methods of swindlers on his grandmother? Just as she was about to step forward and stop her, grandfather Chu Shanhe chuckled and said: "Since the two of you want to wholeheartedly treat my wife's illness, this old man is very happy.

Chu Shanhe started to understand more and more about Xu Lang. Although he knew that Xu Lang definitely knew martial arts and had a deep inner force, he believed that even if a martial arts practitioner used inner force, it was impossible to use a string to detect a person's pulse and Qi. This was simply impossible, but since Xu Lang had boasted so much, he could only wait and see.

This rope was around 20 metres long, and one end was tied to the Chu Family old lady's wrist while the other end was held in Xu Lang's hand. In order to prevent cheating, Liu Simiao had specially instructed the Chu Family members and guards not to reveal even a single word of the old lady's illness to Xu Lang.

Liu Simiao, this scheming fellow, had even ordered Mrs. Chu's bodyguards to sabotage his plan. He had even tied the other end of the rope to the table's leg in an attempt to humiliate Xu Lang in front of everyone.

Xu Lang laughed and naturally, he inherited Liu Simiao's tricks. He said coldly: "Teacher Chu, isn't the helper your family hired a bit too careless? "How can you tie it to the leg of a table and let me take a pulse?"

Anyone who knew would naturally be able to tell that it was definitely Liu Simiao who colluded with the nurse to probe Xu Lang!

Following that, under Liu Simiao's instructions, the bodyguard in the room tied the rope to his own ankle. Through the window, it was impossible for anyone outside to see the truth.

Liu Simiao felt that since the table was dead, it didn't have a pulse. Perhaps Xu Lang could guess right away, but if it was tied to a person's ankle, it should be difficult.

But in almost an instant, Xu Lang said somewhat angrily: "You guys are simply enough! They were tied to the legs of the table, but now they were tied to the ankles of the guards! What exactly do you mean by obstructing them with everything! Don't tell me that you don't want Lady Chu to get better?! "

As these words came out, both Chu Shanhe and Old Man Chu Shanhe looked a little dissatisfied, while Liu Simiao's expression became even more unsightly.

Shen Yuruo naturally could guess that this was all Liu Simiao's bad idea. She was very angry, but it was inconvenient for her to say anything more. Chu Qingyao could not bear to continue watching, so she took the initiative to enter the room and personally tied the rope around her grandmother's wrist.

The semi-conscious Grandma Chu seemed to understand the situation outside. She slowly woke up and said to her granddaughter Chu Qingyao: "Child, don't trouble these doctors. Grandma's sickly grandmother knows very well that there's no saving her!" Grandma Chu only spoke a few sentences before starting to cough violently.

Chu Qingyao anxiously said: "Grandma, your illness will definitely be cured, please do not speak, rest well!"

This time, Xu Lang was sure that the rope was tied to Grandma Chu's wrist, he was seriously pinching the other end of the rope, the scene was extremely funny to the eyes of many, it was simply deceiving himself, playing along with Xu Lang was truly a very funny thing.

Almost no one believed that Xu Lang could rely on just one rope to diagnose the illness of the old lady who had been sick in the room for more than ten years, let alone a 20 metre thick rope!

Although Liu Simiao's face was a little ugly just now, and he had indeed let Xu Lang pass the two trials, but then, he thought that perhaps the two trials were too simple. This time, using a 20 metre rope to check Mrs Chu's pulse, he believed that Xu Lang would definitely not tell him about the old lady's condition.

Even Chu Shanhe who knew martial arts felt that it was impossible to use a 20 metre rope to check the pulse of a patient even with his inner strength. This was simply a fantasy!

But, who knew that Xu Lang would actually hold onto the rope like that, and from time to time, he would move his finger, as though he was changing angles. Chu Shanhe, who was at the side, was staring at Xu Lang's hand, watching him closely to see if he had used any Spirit Qi, but he did not realise that Xu Lang had made any strange movements.

Then, if he didn't use any inner strength, was there any other way to rely on a rope to detect the pulse of others? Chu Shanhe wondered.

Not long later, Xu Lang frowned, and said slowly: "The old lady's pulse is very strong, her face is currently red, her breathing is heavy and powerful."

"Puchi …" When these words came out, Liu Simiao couldn't help but laugh out loud. Because not a single word from Xu Lang was right, even he couldn't help but sweat on Xu Lang's behalf.

Since it's a patient, it must be a patient. How can a patient appear ruddy, with strong pulse and breathing?" Even if he was, he couldn't be so confused!

Liu Simiao laughed loudly: "Oh Xu Lang, Xu Lang, you aren't even qualified to be a swindler, are you stupid? What could make up such a word? Have you ever seen such a patient? I'm really impressed with you, betting with someone like you, I've really debased myself! "
