Chapter 195 You audacious scoundrel, how dare you...
Fearing that the sickly man wouldn't believe Lin Luoxi's abilities, Lin Jize decided to use reverse psychology to provoke his master.
Incidentally, he gave Lin Luoxi a look, signaling that it was time to showcase his talent—no, his medical skills.
"Give me your hand!" Lin Luoxi had been hit on the head twice by the two anchors in the courtyard since she entered, and she was already in a bad mood, so her tone was definitely not very nice. She directly told the man to extend his hand.
"What?" The sickly-looking handsome man was stunned for a moment, not expecting Lin Luoxi to be so direct.
"It's a pity that at such a young age, he's not only terminally ill, but also lacks intelligence." Lin Luoxi rolled her eyes at the sickly-looking handsome man, stepped forward, rudely reached out, grabbed his hand, and began to take his pulse.
"Hey, how dare you!" Old Man Li was furious that Lin Luoxi would so directly lay a hand on his master. He pointed at Lin Luoxi, his beard bristling and eyes wide with anger.
"If you keep making noise, I'll poison you until you're mute."
"I'm a beautiful young woman in the prime of my life, and I haven't felt like your master has taken advantage of me. But you're the one who's getting impatient. Anyone who didn't know better would think your master is some kind of virtuous and chaste woman..."
While taking the pulse of the sickly-looking handsome man, Lin Luoxi spoke rudely to Old Man Li.
"Pfft~" The sicklyly handsome man, who had never seen a girl praise himself so much, couldn't help but laugh.
"What, do you find it funny?" After taking his pulse, Lin Luoxi knew the condition of the sickly handsome man's body. Just as she was about to stop, she heard the sickly handsome man's laughter and couldn't help but shake his hand back.
"Instead of having the mind to laugh, you should think more about how many days you have left to live," Lin Luoxi said, her words sharp as she continued her actions.
"Judging from what you're saying, young lady, you seem confident about my condition. Cough cough." The perverted handsome man raised an eyebrow, looked at the silver needles in Lin Ruoxi's hand, and asked tentatively.
"As long as you do as I say, this little thing is no problem for me." Lin Luoxi had studied tuberculosis in modern times, and now that she possesses a rare treasure, this disease is a piece of cake for her.
"Hehe...cough cough, this girl is quite different from ordinary girls." The perverted handsome man thought Lin Luoxi was overestimating herself. He had been diagnosed by the divine doctor as having little time left. How could the girl in front of him be more powerful than the divine doctor?
"Go on."
"You, you don't even have many days left to live, and you still have the nerve to laugh at me." Lin Luoxi didn't say much, despite the contempt in the tone of the perverted handsome man's voice, and skillfully pierced her acupoints through her clothes.
"You, you, you audacious scoundrel, how dare you..." Old Man Li was furious when he saw Lin Luoxi actually sticking needles into his master. He raised his pinky finger and cursed Lin Luoxi.
"Shut up!" Lin Luoxi stopped tolerating the old man Li's constant cursing. She picked up a silver needle with her left hand and shot it at the old man.
Lin Jize saw the white light shooting towards him and quickly dodged to the side, watching helplessly as the silver needle pierced into Old Man Li's body.
As soon as the silver needle entered Old Man Li's body, he instantly fell silent, maintaining his gesture of pointing at Lin Luoxi with his orchid-like finger raised. He opened his mouth, but couldn't utter a single sound.
"Miss Lin, please have mercy!" After Lin Luoxi inserted the first needle, the sickly-looking man felt the pressure on his chest finally ease, and his body felt less heavy than before.
This one injection made the sickly-looking man realize that Lin Luoxi had some skills, and he became more respectful in his address.
"Don't worry, it won't kill him. At most, it'll shut him up. He'll be fine after I finish the needles," Lin Luoxi said without looking up, her hands continuing to needle the sickly-looking man.
They only stopped after the sickly-looking man's entire body was covered in quills.
"Girl, is that all?" Lin Jize, who had been waiting by the side, stepped forward to wipe Lin Luoxi's sweat after she stopped and asked anxiously.
"It definitely won't be that fast."
"If I could cure him with just a few acupuncture needles, I would truly be a living god."
Although Lin Lin Luo Xi has a way to make this perverted handsome man recover quickly, he's not anyone to her, so why should she waste such a good treasure!
Lin Jize realized he had been too hasty and smiled apologetically at Lin Luoxi.
"That's not what I meant. What I meant was, there's still hope for him, right?" He asked cautiously, hoping to hear a different answer from Lin Luoxi.
"There is hope, of course there is hope, but I..." Lin Luoxi stopped mid-sentence, keeping everyone in suspense.
"Don't worry, as long as you can save my life, Miss Lin will definitely be generous with your reward." The sickly-looking man now felt that he had barely coughed after being pricked by Lin Luoxi.
"You said it yourself, so you can't go back on your word."
"I'm not into those superficial things. I'm rather materialistic and prefer real money. You see..." Seeing how straightforward the other party was, Lin Luoxi didn't hold back and said that she only liked money.
"Hehe..." I just thought this girl was incredibly beautiful and possessed such superb medical skills; I assumed she was a woman of high moral character. I never expected her to be like this...
"What are you chuckling about? Don't tell me you don't have the money to pay!" Lin Luoxi hated nothing more than people not explaining themselves clearly and using "chuck" to confuse others. It was truly unpleasant.
The thought that the other party was a poor wretch made Lin Luoxi raise her hand, intending to pull out the silver needles from the perverted handsome man's body.
"Hey, hey, girl. Don't be impulsive. My master didn't mean anything by it. He's rich, he's rich." Just kidding, his master is the richest man in the world, but, but...
"Grandpa, you can't lie to me, otherwise, I can either cure him or cripple him. You'd better think it through." Lin Luoxi took the opportunity to climb up the bar.
“You…you…” Uncle Li responded to Lin Luoxi’s words. After the silver needles were inserted, he was able to speak freely again.
Hearing Lin Luoxi's words, he raised his pinky finger, about to say something, but then he remembered that Lin Luoxi had just silenced him, so he hesitated for a long time and didn't dare to utter another word.
That's how people are. When you're weak, they'd love to trample on you and pee on you. But when you're strong, they're as timid as turtles, hesitant to speak for fear of offending you.
"Grandpa Li, go get ten thousand taels of silver for Miss Lin." Having just experienced the comfortable feeling of lightness in his body, the sickly handsome man was unwilling to return to the previous feeling of heaviness all over his body and the discomfort of coughing at the slightest provocation.
Hurry up and speak up so that Old Man Li can go back and get the money, so that Lin Luoxi can be completely at ease and can do her best to treat him.
