Chapter Fifty-Six: Staying Overnight



"Guards, lock this murderer in the cell!"

The vice-general's anxiety finally died.

During this period, no matter how severe the infectious disease patients were, none of them had ever coughed up blood like the general. If Lin Yang hadn't intervened, the general might have had a chance to survive.

The doctors at the Chinese Medicine Clinic stood by and did nothing.

So what if you can insert needles into acupuncture points?

In the end, he was still just a good-for-nothing!

Traditional Chinese medicine is outdated.

If they continue to stick to the old ways and fail to keep up with the development of modern medical technology, they will only end up like Lin Yang, causing irreversible consequences and even losing their lives.

"yes!"

Upon seeing this, the soldiers immediately drew their swords and surrounded Lin Yang.

They were all tall and strong, while Lin Yang appeared much thinner in comparison.

Liu Baohua watched with schadenfreude.

Unfortunately, his smile lasted less than a second before what happened next left him completely dumbfounded.

Lin Yang calmly pulled out the remaining silver needles from his pocket and casually tossed them aside, just as he had done when treating the general. The needles, as if equipped with tracking devices, all pierced the soldiers' foreheads.

Those soldiers who were trying to capture Lin Yang a second ago were now frozen in place like statues, unable to move, their bodies completely unresponsive except for blinking.

The scene was so magical that it made everyone present gasp in astonishment.

What's going on?

"Sorcery! It's sorcery!"

"Isn't traditional Chinese medicine just something for kids to play house? What's going on now?"

"Could there really be a mysterious force from the East in the world?"

The other soldiers and reporters on the scene were terrified and retreated in all directions. They looked at Lin Yang as if he were a demon crawling up from hell, and dared not step forward to subdue him.

Fortunately, Lin Yang didn't intend to hurt anyone.

He simply stood there quietly, scanning his surroundings: "Let's see who dares to touch me!"

To harm him is tantamount to taking half of the general's life.

Because of previous injections of antibiotics and adrenaline, the general's physical condition is currently very unstable. Even with acupuncture treatment from Lin Yang, it is still impossible to guarantee that he will fully recover.

If any abnormalities occur later, Lin Yang will need to continue to observe and treat the symptoms accordingly in order to save the general's life.

"You, how dare you! This is Southeast Asia, not China. Do you still want to run wild on our territory?"

The lieutenant was also stunned by Lin Yang's actions. He had originally wanted to retreat to ensure his own safety, but when he caught sight of the general lying on the ground, barely alive and covered in blood, he gritted his teeth and stepped forward, snarling:

"Don't think you can do whatever you want just because you have some skills, I..."

"Cough cough, I feel much better now that I've thrown up... What happened?"

The lieutenant was halfway through his sentence when the general's hoarse voice drifted up from the ground.

Everyone was shocked and looked over.

Sometime later, the general had stopped vomiting blood, and his pale face regained its color. He stood up shakily, his eyes revealing confusion and weakness.

"Was it this old gentleman who saved me?"

He subconsciously looked at Ouyang Jianfei, who was surrounded by the crowd, his face full of gratitude.

As an important national official, the general had long heard that a famous doctor named Ouyang Jianfei would come to help, and he assumed that this was the white-haired old man in front of him.

Just two minutes ago, the person was struggling between life and death, but now he was able to stand up on his own. Although he was still a little shaky, such a huge change left everyone present looking at each other in astonishment.

Is he saved?

Liu Baohua rubbed his eyes.

Is this not a hallucination?

"Thank you so much." The general bowed deeply to Ouyang Jianfei, his eyes filled with tears.

Behind him, someone tried to say something, but Liu Baohua glared at them, silencing them.

He quickly stepped forward obsequiously, nodding like a chicken pecking at rice: "Yes, General, it was Old Master Ouyang who gave you an intravenous injection of antibiotics and other emergency medications, which pulled you back from the brink of death!"

Ouyang Jianfei was equally shameless, waving his hand in feigned modesty: "General, you flatter me. There's no need for thanks. As doctors, treating the sick and saving lives is our duty, and it's only right."

The lieutenant also excitedly went to greet him, but as he passed Lin Yang, he pushed him aside.

Lin Yang staggered a few steps.

After a long and arduous journey, and treating two people without any rest, he is also human and gets tired.

Right now, almost everyone is surrounding Ouyang Jianfei, displaying their utmost beauty.

No one attributed it to Lin Yang.

"receive!"

The repeated snubs made Lin Yang lose all interest in dealing with them.

With a wave of his hand, he removed the needles from the foreheads of the soldiers he had previously immobilized, then turned and left without another word.

Lin Yang wasn't planning to swallow this bitter pill.

In time, those idiots will come begging to him.

The more arrogant some people are now, the louder and more painful the slap in the face they will receive later.

Liu Baohua watched Lin Yang's lonely departing figure and smiled slyly in a corner where no one was paying attention.

It's done!

Given the current situation, Lin Yang definitely can't stay in the rescue center's dormitory. Even if there were empty beds, Lin Yang wouldn't have the face to come, especially since he had already informed the management in advance that every time Lin Yang applied for a room, the reply was "no beds available."

Lin Yang now only has two paths to take.

They can either go back home and stay in China, or find a small hotel in Southeast Asia to stay in.

The hygiene conditions of the small hotel could only be described as filthy and chaotic, and it was nowhere near as good as the international rescue center, which disinfects every morning, noon and night with alcohol.

In a few days, Lin Yang will catch the disease and, like those short-lived patients in the hospital, suffer from fever and vomiting, dying a miserable death.

At that time, no one will be able to oppose the Chinese Medicine Clinic.

Although he couldn't steal Lin Yang's authentic traditional Chinese medicine, he could still gradually make authentic traditional Chinese medicine disappear from the world, leaving only the modified traditional Chinese medicine controlled by him, Liu Baohua.

Leaving the rescue center, the streets were filled with pale-faced patients.

People would occasionally collapse in the street, convulsing and vomiting, drawing sidelong glances from passersby, but without much surprise.

Everyone's gotten used to it by now.

Lin Yang walked along the street, watching these scenes unfold. His heart felt as if it were being tightly gripped by an invisible hand, a dull ache throbbing within him.

"Hey? Dr. Lin, what are you doing here?"

A surprised voice from not far away interrupted Lin Yang's thoughts.

The middle-aged woman who had been treated by Lin Yang earlier stood a few meters away, smiling and waving at Lin Yang.

After chatting for a bit, Lin Yang learned her name: Luna.

Luna is a single mother who lives in a remote mountain area about an hour's drive away. She has a daughter who just turned 23 this year, and the two of them depend on each other for survival.
