When Chen Xiu uttered those words, he felt a sense of helplessness.
I am Chen Wudi, who slaughtered his way through the cultivation world, yet I have to play this clumsy "pretending to be weak to take advantage of others" divine doctor plot!?
"What did you say?"
Doctor Zhao frowned deeply, his aged face contorted with wrinkles. "Who are you? How dare you question my medical skills?!"
"Hey kid, where did you come from?"
Murong Shaobo glared at Chen Xiu and said angrily, "Do you have any right to interrupt here?"
"How dare you question Dr. Zhao's medical skills! You're utterly ungrateful!"
"How dare you cause trouble at the Murong family! You're asking for it!"
"Guards, throw this brat out!"
The members of the Murong family also voiced their accusations and ordered their servants to throw Chen Xiu out.
Beside her, Murong Shuang's beautiful eyebrows furrowed slightly. She hadn't expected Chen Xiu to be so bold as to directly stop Doctor Zhao from administering acupuncture!
"I was invited by Miss Murong Shuang to treat the old man's illness."
Chen Xiu, however, appeared completely unfazed and said, "If you don't believe me, let's make a bet. After this injection, the old man will definitely vomit blood, and his life won't last more than three minutes! If I'm wrong, you can do whatever you want with me!"
"Okay, okay!"
The divine doctor Zhao laughed in anger. He had saved countless lives in his life, and his superb acupuncture skills earned him the title of "the nemesis of Yama"!
A prominent figure once praised Doctor Zhao, saying: "With a single touch of his silver needles, he can revive even those who are on the verge of death, like those caught by the King of Hell!"
That's why he earned the nickname "Killer of Hell"!
Now, however, he was being questioned by a young man, which made Doctor Zhao extremely angry. His face turned terribly gloomy: "A kid who probably doesn't even know what traditional Chinese medicine is dares to speak nonsense! I will cure the old man right now and let Patriarch Murong deal with you!"
"Keep an eye on him, don't let him get away!"
Murong Shaobo instructed two servants to keep an eye on Chen Xiu, then glared at Murong Shuang with a dark look in his eyes: "Are you trying to kill the old man by sending such a brat to cause trouble?"
"No... I didn't, Second Uncle, how could I harm Grandpa!"
Murong Shuang quickly explained.
"Hmph, you know perfectly well whether you've harmed her or not, considering how much the old man dotes on you!"
Murong Longcheng snorted coldly, then turned to Doctor Zhao and said, "Doctor, please administer the acupuncture quickly, don't bother with this kid!"
"Yes, Dr. Zhao, we believe in you!"
"Please heal the old man quickly, and then we'll teach those with ulterior motives a lesson!"
"Some people, the old man loved her so much, yet she hired someone to harm him. You can know a person's face but not their heart!"
"Please, Dr. Zhao, you must cure the old man!"
Hearing the accusations from the crowd, Murong Shuang was speechless and could only glare angrily at Chen Xiu.
"Hey……"
Chen Xiu smiled at Murong Shuang.
This made Murong Shuang even angrier, her chest heaving like a raging storm.
"Seventh Senior Sister has always been quite something!"
Chen Xiu's gaze was practically glued to the screen, and he sighed inwardly, "Ever since I met Seventh Senior Sister, whenever I see the words 'surging waves,' I can't remember that this idiom was originally used to describe the sea!"
Dr. Zhao continued administering acupuncture.
After inserting the needle, gently twist the needle tip with your fingers.
Fresh blood kept seeping out.
The old man's fingers twitched, and then he slowly opened his eyes.
"The old man is awake!?"
"Dr. Zhao is truly a miracle doctor! You've revived the old man!!"
"Old man..."
The members of the Murong family gathered around the bed, all looking on in amazement.
Murong Shuang was the same; when she saw her grandfather wake up, a smile finally appeared on her beautiful face!
Holy crap?
That old man's got some skills!
However, no one can show off in front of this Immortal Emperor!
I said that if you give the old man this injection, he will surely die. So if you give him this injection, he will surely die!
Taking advantage of everyone's joy, Chen Xiu formed a sword shape with his fingers, gathered spiritual energy, and flicked it gently at the old man...
Whoosh!
An invisible stream of spiritual energy entered the old man's body.
The old man, who had been slowly opening his eyes, suddenly froze, his eyes widened, and his body began to convulse.
"Ahh... Pfft!"
After convulsing for a few seconds, the old man suddenly straightened up and spat out a glob of red blood.
The blood on the white sheets was a stark contrast.
"dad!"
"grandfather……"
The Murong family members were stunned and watched this scene in a flurry of activity.
"Dr. Zhao, what's going on!"
Murong Shaobo was the first to react. He grabbed Doctor Zhao's arm and asked excitedly, "What happened? Why is the old man vomiting blood?"
"I...I'll take another look..."
Doctor Zhao panicked, his wrinkled face full of worry. He quickly took the old man's pulse.
A few seconds later, Doctor Zhao's expression turned even more grim!
Because the old man was breathing very weakly, he clearly had the symptoms of not long to live.
"Dr. Zhao, how is the old man?"
"Yes! Doctor Zhao, please say something!"
Urged by the Murong family, Doctor Zhao had no choice but to tell them the truth: "Old Master Murong's pulse is weak and his breath is faint. He will not live much longer! There is nothing I can do to help him!"
"Ah! This..."
Everyone was stunned and said, "Even Doctor Zhao is helpless, what should we do!"
"dad……"
"grandfather!"
Some people couldn't help but cry.
Seeing this, Chen Xiu frowned slightly.
These people are so forgetful! They've already forgotten they even exist?
"Cough cough... Didn't I tell you? With this one needle, the old man will definitely vomit blood and won't live much longer! Now, if you want to save the old man's life, you can only beg me to help!"
Chen Xiu's voice caught everyone's attention.
Everyone looked at Chen Xiu.
This young man, in his early twenties, was tall and handsome, with a striking air of heroism between his brows.
A young man with such a temperament is unlikely to be a boastful liar!
However, becoming a doctor requires accumulating experience and being tempered by time to become a renowned doctor, or even a miracle doctor!
Even if such a young person started learning medicine from the womb, their medical skills probably wouldn't be that great!
"If you don't believe me, then let the old man die!"
Seeing the suspicious looks on everyone's faces, Chen Xiu's lips curled up slightly, and he said, "Anyway, after the old man died, half of his inheritance would go to Miss Murong Shuang! You risked your lives to save the old man, wasn't it all to get him to change the will? Now you only have this one chance, are you going to give it up?"
These words were spoken while staring at Murong Shaobo!
Upon hearing this, everyone, including Murong Shaobo, had a drastic change in expression!
Only Murong Shuang remained silent, her beautiful eyes staring at Chen Xiu with suspicion, not understanding what this young man was up to!
"Alright, go ahead and make your move!"
Finally, Murong Bo said with a grim expression, "You'd better save the old man, or I can guarantee you a lifetime of wealth! Otherwise..."
