Chapter 268 Then You Stay Here

Unfortunately, once she arrived in the capital, she didn't know any doctors. Even the teachers at the school would just finish their classes quickly and leave. The first-year courses weren't that complicated either, so Xiao Taohua had never been exposed to any so-called medical discussions.

And now, Grandpa Xu is the first one.

What's more, the first one's medical knowledge was particularly solid. When they really got into the discussion, Xiao Taohua found that she was just as good as her master. For a while, the whole hall was filled with the sounds of the old man and the young woman discussing.

From the initial discussion about the big boss's condition, to the subsequent encounters with different cases and medications, and the dialectical explanation of the patient's reactions after those medications were prescribed, the two spoke passionately, even arguing over points of ambiguity.

“This won’t do. Although this medicine is effective, it doesn’t cure the root cause.” The doctor’s face turned red as he spoke, and Little Peach Blossom’s face also lit up with excitement: “We can use acupuncture! With acupuncture as an adjunct, the medicine will naturally cure the disease.”

"Acupuncture does not have this effect."

"Acupuncture is available."

"No, no matter how powerful the effects of acupuncture are, they can't defy the laws of nature."

"It can assist in internal energy cultivation!"

The master opened his mouth, as if he had heard something: "Internal...internal energy?" Was it the kind of internal energy he was thinking of?

"Yes, acupuncture combined with internal energy can definitely cure the disease."

The expert suddenly slapped his thigh, startling the big shot who was drinking tea and listening to their discussion. What, what happened?

Before he could speak, the master rushed excitedly to Little Peach Blossom.

Xiao Peichuan was still a little nervous, afraid that this master would do something, but the master did nothing. He just looked at Xiao Taohua excitedly: "Young friend, do you really have internal energy? Should I try it? I don't know what it feels like to have acupuncture needles inserted into the body with the help of internal energy."

But you're not sick.

"You can get acupuncture even if you're not sick, to clear your meridians."

Little Peach Blossom glanced at him.

The master smiled gently at her.

"That's fine."

"Hey, hehe." The master's laughter was so loud that even the big boss couldn't bear to look at him.

However, internal strength?

Does this thing really exist?

Even if there were big shots, he had only heard of them; they had only appeared in storybooks, and he had never actually seen them in real life.

Xiao Peichuan was calmer than the other two. From the moment Xiao Taohua started giving him acupuncture, he knew that the feeling was very different from ordinary acupuncture. The feeling of energy flowing through the body after the acupuncture needles was something that no one would believe existed in the world without experiencing it.

But is it really okay to be so exposed?

Xiao Peichuan glanced at Xiao Taohua, and seeing that she really didn't mind, he said nothing more.

No matter what, if the Xiao family really wanted to protect him, they could still do so.

Xiao Peichuan, sipping his tea, lowered his eyes, blew on the hot water in his teacup, and took a small sip. Thanks to his poor health, all he could drink was plain water. Anything else? Forget about it; there was nothing.

But even a cup of tea can make him exude the refined elegance of a noble young master.

The big shot had been secretly observing from the sidelines for a long time and concluded that Xiao Peichuan's family background was definitely not simple.

However, these are not things he needs to investigate.

He was someone who needed something from others.

It's impolite for someone who needs a favor to inquire about the host's identity.

Little Peach Blossom kept her word. Since the master didn't mind, she naturally took out the silver needles she always carried with her.

The silver needles gleamed coldly in the light, but the master's eyes were filled with even more excitement.

Soon, very soon he will be able to reach the level of internal energy!

Thinking of this, the doctor's hands almost trembled uncontrollably, but fortunately, he had good self-control. As a doctor, one's hands must be steady.

"I got an acupuncture."

"Stab it."

Little Peach Blossom blinked, then unceremoniously stuck the silver needle into the master's arm.

Sure enough, in that instant, the master felt as if he had taken a hot bath on a cold day, his whole body felt refreshed, and he almost groaned out in comfort.

The way he seemed to be enjoying himself made even the big shots a little tempted to try it themselves, but the master quickly calmed down: "That's it?"

Little Peach Blossom has already had her needles removed; she only had two or three needles inserted.

"Isn't it about clearing the meridians?"

"It's working now?"

"yes."

The expert remained silent for a moment.

I have to say, that moment felt really good.

Then, he excitedly grasped Little Peach Blossom's hand: "Excuse me, do you accept disciples for this method of internal energy cultivation?"

Little Peach Blossom looked at him and said, "You're not good enough."

"Why? I know medicine, and I'm quite good at it."

"But you're too old."

Master: ...

A mouthful of blood stuck in my throat.

He had already shamelessly asked, but the result was his age.

There's no way to reverse age.

"Can't we really talk?"

"We can't talk about it, and you don't have the talent for it."

It's like having a mountain of gold right in front of him, but he can only look at it and can't touch it, which is heartbreaking.

"You should also be more discreet. This was passed down from the master to you, young friend. Even if someone were to take you on as a disciple, it wouldn't be something you could just agree to. Besides, what you said makes sense. How old are you? Why are you still practicing internal energy?" Although the big shot was also envious of internal energy, he knew that taking on a disciple was a very serious matter. Of course, being able to cultivate internal energy was an even bigger deal. How could you possibly learn it just by being shameless? You're overthinking it.

“I was just daydreaming.” The master doctor sighed, but he quickly cheered up again: “However, it is still very fulfilling to be able to personally experience internal energy acupuncture in my lifetime. Based on that feeling just now, coupled with a suitable prescription, old friend, your illness is just as my young friend said, it can be cured! Indeed, there are always people more skilled than you in medicine.”

"As long as you can figure it out yourself," the big boss said.

"Otherwise, what else can I think of?" He wasn't the kind of person who would stop at nothing to achieve his goals, but when he thought of using any means necessary, the Master still said to Little Peach Blossom very seriously, "Don't tell anyone about your internal strength, lest others covet it."

"It's okay, bad guys can't beat me." Little Peach Blossom really didn't care.

"That's not how it works. Nowadays, bad guys don't just beat people up or kidnap them to achieve their goals. They have all sorts of schemes and tricks that are hard to guard against."

The big boss also looked at Little Peach Blossom: "We should be more vigilant."

Xiao Peichuan nodded in agreement.

Little Peach Blossom really wanted to say that it's okay, even if others want to bully her, they should see if Grandpa Heaven will allow it.

However, seeing the worried faces in front of him, he wisely swallowed his words and nodded.

"Hmm, young friend, you are truly well-behaved." The master smiled with satisfaction, and the big boss also curled his lips in approval.

"This trip has truly been worthwhile, old friend. Your life was saved by that young friend, so don't forget your savior later," the master reminded him.

"Don't worry, I know better than you do."

The master glared at him.

"Alright, you've bothered this young friend for quite a while now, we should head back." The big shot glanced at the sky and realized it was no longer appropriate to stay any longer.

"Just keep urging them!"

"So you're staying here?"
