C14 Qingtian Jiuzhen

Wu Meng had only a rough understanding of traditional Chinese medicine. Usually, he would cheat in the countryside and usually, he wouldn't die, but he also wouldn't be able to cure a disease.

Passing by this time, he happened to see his mother sobbing as she talked to herself at the door. After hearing a few words, he was able to tell that this place was profitable, so he pretended to be a genius doctor, coming to treat his father's illness.

After having been afflicted by illness for a few months and suffering so much that he wished he were dead every day, his father fell into a deep slumber. His mother, seeing that her husband, who had been suffering all day, had actually fallen asleep today, believing even more in him.

Originally, Wu Ji had thought that he would just casually swindle this family of his for a little bit of money, but never would he have thought that at the crucial moment, Xu Qiong would bring Liu Cheng and Song Liangwei back.

How could Liu Cheng, who was the successor of Wen Cheng's son, not see through Wu Gou's trick? With just a few words, he had broken it.

Facing Xu Qiuyi's reprimand, Wu Ji was both anxious and furious as he hurriedly asked his mother, "Sister-in-law Xu, this daughter of yours doesn't have any upbringing at all. She hasn't even gotten married yet and is already so convinced by the men outside.

Hearing this, Mrs Xu was also somewhat unhappy, but managed to hold it in as she asked, "Dr Wu, then how should my old man's illness be treated?"

"Humph, I, Wu Ang, have always only treated patients with fate. You all are so disrespectful to this old man, there is no way to treat this disease anymore!" As he spoke, his expression changed and he was about to leave.

The more Liu Cheng heard, the more shameless he became. He grabbed onto his arm and sneered, "You're still trying to save the world? Aren't you afraid that you will ruin the ancestor's reputation for thousands of years? The reputation of traditional Chinese medicine has been ruined by you people! "

"You … What are you trying to do? " Wu Ji stared at his hand and said in a flustered tone, "Do you really want to hit me?"

"Hehe, hit you? I think it's too dirty for my hands! " Liu Cheng snorted and let go.

Seeing this, Wu Man didn't bother to pick up his bag and ran away.

Just as he left, Mrs Xu panicked, "Oh no, I gave him 2000 yuan just now!"

"Mom, how can you do this? Do you think that you can just trust a swindler like him? " Xu Qiong couldn't help but say. She didn't think that her mother would be so careless. To her family, two thousand dollars wasn't a small amount.

"Sigh, wasn't it because of your father's illness? I saw him touching your father's body, and your father doesn't have any pain anymore, he can even sleep now. Don't you think that he really is a genius doctor?" Mrs Xu's face was also full of regret.

Hearing this, Liu Cheng walked up to Mr Xu and reached out to touch some black granules under his nose. Lifting them up and smelling them, he asked, "What do you guys see here?"

The three of them walked over and saw the black granules in his hands. They shook their heads and asked hurriedly.

Liu Cheng said, "This is called Black Mountain Pine Fragrance. It can knock people unconscious and is usually very effective against insomniacs!"

Hearing him say so, Mrs Xu's expression changed drastically. She immediately understood why Wu Ji could cause Mr Xu to sleep so soundly with just a few words.

"Big brother, do you think our old man can still be saved?" Mrs Xu hurriedly said.

Liu Cheng waved his hand, "Auntie, don't worry. I'll let Uncle Xu have a look first!"

Following the instructions recorded in the Book of Arcane Stored Medicine, he began to check his father's pulse. His face was slightly anxious.

Song Lian saw Liu Cheng's serious expression and felt an inexplicable jolt in her heart. She suddenly felt that this brat was rather charming when he got serious, much better than the men around him.

Xu Qiong was even more worried. Her heart was beating wildly. If she wasn't worried about her father's condition, she would have already gone up to him.

After a long while, Liu Cheng retracted his right hand and sighed, "Uncle Xu's condition is indeed very serious."

When Xu Qiuyi and her mother heard this, their hearts skipped a beat.

Xu Qiong had already guessed this long ago. With a dejected expression, she walked over and took out a piece of paper, "It's nothing. Big Brother Liu, I know my father's condition very well. I'll help you wipe your sweat first!"

Liu Cheng was stunned. Just as he was about to take the tissue from Xu Qiong, he happened to see half of her delicate sleeve.

It had been a hot day recently. Xu Qiong was wearing short-sleeved clothes that barely covered her shoulders. When she raised her arm, the majority of the scenery inside was completely exposed.

Suddenly, he shot a glance at his father. Looking at his sallow face, he felt as if a bucket of cold water had been poured over his head. Immediately, he realized that he had committed a sin.

Xu Qiong did not know what he was thinking. Seeing that he remained silent for a long time, she thought that he wanted her to wipe his forehead. Suddenly, her face turned hot as she shyly wiped Liu Cheng's forehead with a tissue.

After wiping a few times, Liu Cheng was suddenly jolted awake and hurriedly snatched the tissue from her hands. He subconsciously glanced at Song Lian and whispered, "I'll do it myself!"

After a while, Liu Cheng let out a sigh of relief and said, "This disease can be cured, but it will take a very long time to completely recover!"

Hearing this, Xu Qiuyi and her mother were instantly overjoyed.

"Big Brother Liu, can you really treat it?" Xu Qiong hurriedly asked.

Liu Cheng nodded with a grave expression, "That's fine, but you should know that this disease is not easy to cure completely, and needs to be treated every once in a while for uncle!"

"Then... Then I'll be troubling you, Big Brother Liu! " Xu Qiong said embarrassedly.

Mrs Xu asked rather worriedly, "Big brother, can my daughter's father's illness really be cured?" How much does that cost? "

Liu Cheng laughed heartily. "Auntie, as long as you provide me with a meal. As for the matter of spending money, I'm sure you'll still spend some money when you get the medicine!"

Hearing this, Xu Qiong and her mother heaved a sigh of relief.

Liu Cheng glanced at that swindler's bag on the table beside him. His heart skipped a beat as he found a row of silver needles. He immediately smiled and said, "It's just nice to have this kind of thing!"

He pulled out nine two-finger-long silver needles and arranged them in a row.

The Nine Needles of Qingtian was created by Mr. Liu Bowen in his later years, representing his highest achievements in medical skills.

One needle to determine life and death, two needles to seize yin and yang, three needles to obtain flesh and bones, four needles to produce rotted bones …

In the past half month, Liu Cheng had been researching all kinds of brilliant techniques from the Encyclopedia every night. Especially the two books, Righteous Bestowal and Medicine , he put in a lot of effort into it.

However, with his current abilities, he could only perform the first of the nine Green Tian Needles.

Song Liangwei and Xu Qiong stared closely at Liu Cheng as he pinched the silver needle. Afterwards, he lifted the blanket and stuck it somewhere on his father's waist.

When that needle fell, the breathing of Song Liangtou and the other two froze. All three of them were thinking: Could it be that with that one needle, Mr Xu's illness would be alleviated?

Even Liu Dizai was a bit anxious. This was the first time he had used the Nine Needles of Qingtian, and it was also the first time he had treated a patient with renal failure.

Just as the room was so quiet that one could hear the sound of breathing, the unconscious Mr Xu suddenly coughed twice before slowly opening his eyes.

"I... "What happened to me …"
