Chapter 550 Extra: Lu Heng and Shan Haitang (Part 2)

When the man heard those mocking words, his face turned red so much that it almost bled.

"You're talking nonsense! I'm going to tear your mouth apart and let you see if I can do it or not." After saying that, he rushed forward, intending to beat Lu Heng up.

"How can you not distinguish between good and evil? I can cure you and I only charge you a penny." Lu Heng dodged his attack.

Lu Qiongying and Tian Nanxing, who were watching the show in the teahouse, were stunned.

"You're right, we should let him out to gain more experience." Lu Qiongying ate the last piece of snack, observed the two of them, and was ready to rescue Lu Heng at any time.

Arisaema was also speechless.

This apprentice must have gone crazy studying medicine.

All men have to save face, but he actually pointed out someone's shameful flaws in public. He was just asking for trouble.

Fortunately, Lu Heng’s training during this period was not in vain. A passerby could not beat him, but he still ran away in shame.

The next day, he regrouped and moved his stall to a new location.

An old woman with a mad cough came to see a doctor for one penny.

Lu Heng carefully took her pulse and then prescribed some medicine.

Unexpectedly, the old woman threw the prescription away.

Lu Heng was stunned, somewhat puzzled and somewhat angry: "Old lady, why are you like this? You can only get better if you take these medicines. I really didn't lie to you."

"The medicines you prescribed, such as ginseng and cordyceps, are too expensive for an old woman like me." The old woman coughed twice, with anger on her face.

"If I could afford it, why would I come to see a little-known doctor like you?"

Lu Heng's face turned red.

Normally, those who came to see him for treatment were all dignitaries, and when he wrote prescriptions, he subconsciously prescribed those tonic medicines.

But those medicines are very expensive.

"Thank you for your teaching, grandma. It's my fault for not being considerate enough." Lu Heng apologized with a red face.

"I'll prescribe you a new prescription. It's cheaper than that one, but it will take longer to recover."

Seeing that he had a good attitude, the old woman sat back in her seat and waited for him to prescribe medicine.

When the people around saw this, they thought that this young doctor was able to admit his mistakes and had a good temper, so they also lined up and spent a penny to see the doctor.

During his ten days in Lantian County, Lu Heng treated one hundred patients.

He summed up many valuable experiences.

That is something you can't learn in the Imperial Hospital.

His reputation gradually grew, and soon the people of Lantian County knew that there was a young doctor who treated patients with good medical skills and only charged a penny.

Lu Heng never revealed his last name, so the people called him "the penny doctor".

When Lu Heng heard this title:

I should have given it a more resonant name earlier.

No one can remember the name Lingyou, but only the penny.

After staying in Lantian County for half a month, Lu Heng set off for his next destination.

The land and water nurture the people, and he treated patients from one place after another.

Lu Heng had a deeper understanding of this sentence.

In places like Lingnan, the climate is humid and there are many mosquitoes and insects, so people here are more likely to get dysentery and rheumatism.

He compiled the cases of patients he had treated into a booklet, providing the imperial doctors with many new ideas for diagnosis and treatment.

After traveling abroad for a year, Lu Heng became more mature.

In just one year, he had only covered one third of Daxia, and he still had to keep going.

So after returning to Beijing to celebrate the New Year, he set out again.

On this day, he was treating patients at his stall as usual.

A young lady in black and a hat came to his stall.

After he took her pulse, his brows furrowed slightly.

Then he looked at the girl.

The hat she wore was wrapped in a circle of black gauze, so he couldn't see her face clearly.

"Miss Trouble, take off your veil."

"You are said to be very powerful, so how come you can't tell what's wrong with me after taking my pulse?" The girl in black veil asked provocatively.

Lu Heng realized that she was here to cause trouble.

But in the past year, he also encountered several medical disputes, all of which were handled perfectly.

So this time, he spoke calmly: "Observing, smelling, asking and palpating, observing the girl's face is also part of the diagnosis and treatment. I hope the girl will cooperate."

Hearing this, the woman in front of him lifted the veil, revealing a pretty face.

Lu Heng was stunned for a moment.

Why are this person's lips so dark?

Is this poison so powerful?

It can actually make people's lips so dark.

"Look!" Shan Haitang raised her eyebrows and looked at him.

Lu Heng subconsciously reached out to touch her lips.

"You scoundrel, what are you doing!" Shan Haitang slapped his hand away and looked at him angrily.

Lu Heng looked at the faint black color on his fingers and was suddenly speechless.

This girl's aesthetic taste is really special.

The dark lips had nothing to do with poisoning; it was because she used black lip balm.

"I don't mean anything else, I just wanted to see what the black color on your lips looks like. You've been poisoned." Lu Heng gave the answer.

As soon as he finished speaking, he noticed that the finger that had touched the Begonia earlier felt numb.

Oops, he's been poisoned.

Without saying a word, Lu Heng took out the detoxification pills he always had on hand and swallowed them.

Let’s stop the spread of the poison first, and then see what kind of poison it is later.

"Haha, little doctor, you are poisoned." Shan Haitang smiled slightly.

She looked at the onlookers.

"I am Shan Haitang, the world's number one poisoner. This penny doctor is unreliable. He is not a miracle doctor. He can't even cure poison. Don't go to him for treatment. If you need treatment or detoxification, please come to me. I am honest and trustworthy. I can cure any disease or detoxify any poison."

Lu Heng: ...

Damn!

What a dirty business war.

This woman actually wanted to use his reputation to promote herself.

"What penny doctor? I am Ling You, the world's number one miracle doctor." Within a few breaths, Lu Heng had controlled the spread of the poison.

"This little bit of poison of yours is nothing. I can easily remove it. Stop embarrassing yourself by calling yourself the best poisoner." He spoke calmly.

"What?" Shan Haitang turned around to look at Lu Heng and found that he could actually control his poison.

The onlookers were talking a lot, and when they heard Shan Haitang's words, they immediately stayed away from her.

We are so close, what if they get poisoned?

"What makes you say I'm not the most ruthless person in the world? If you have the ability, let's compete." Shan Haitang was annoyed.

This young doctor actually has some skills.

She just wanted to test his ability and see if he could tell what kind of poison was in her body.

As a result, he touched her lips without her consent.

She was so poisoned by herself that she simply took advantage of the situation to promote herself.

"Let's compete. If you lose, don't come to me to pick a fight again." Lu Heng has studied medicine with Tian Nanxing for more than ten years and is very confident in his medical skills.

"I'm not looking for trouble. I just want to see if you're a quack doctor seeking fame." Shan Haitang snorted, refusing to admit that his purpose was not pure.

There was no other way. Her master did not allow her to hurt anyone, but also wanted her to find a way to become famous.

Only in this way can you start your journey.

This was the only bad idea she could come up with.

If the penny-wise doctor couldn't figure out what poison she had, she could show off her ability and let the people judge for themselves.

She beat this penny doctor who was very famous among the people. When people mentioned the penny doctor, they would think of her.

This can be considered as being famous all over the world.

The only miscalculation was that this young doctor's detoxification ability was much stronger than she thought.
