Facing Dr. Bai's repeated mockery and skepticism, Chen Xuan did not get angry or resort to violence. With so many medical students present, he had no wish to undermine the image of traditional Chinese medicine.
"Dr. Bai, although you have read the Yellow Emperor's Inner Canon, your claim that most of it is specious nonsense only shows that your grasp of ancient Chinese is inadequate and you have failed to understand it."
"In reality, the Yellow Emperor's Inner Canon contains many profound medical truths. Take the first chapter, 'On the Ancient Innocence', for instance. It explains that humans should model themselves after the natural changes of heaven, earth, Yin, and Yang, adapting to them accordingly; failure to adapt leads to illness. The Great Dao is simple. The cause of illness lies right there, and once addressed, it is cured. The concept of 'preventive treatment in traditional Chinese medicine' stems precisely from this principle."
