"Thirteen Needles of the Ghost Gate?"
Upon hearing this ominous term, the face of the Wang Family Head, Wang Dingguo, changed color.
"That’s right, the Thirteen Needles of the Ghost Gate!"
Jiang Chen affird with certainty, "This needle technique is generally used on those on the brink of death, to snatch them back from the gates of hell. It works by stimulating the patient’s latent potential to treat illness. Once this technique is used, the patient will imdiately regain consciousness and appear to be in great condition. However, it’s just like the last surge of vitality before death and, regardless of the patient’s condition, death is certain within three days."
As he spoke, Jiang Chen glared angrily at the Divine Doctor, "So, you’re not saving people, but plotting for wealth and causing death!"
"Aiyo..."
Hearing Jiang Chen clearly describe the purpose of the Thirteen Needles of the Ghost Gate, the Divine Doctor’s face drastically paled, and his ankle hurt even more, almost making him want to flee imdiately. However, his years of experience wandering the jianghu quickly cald him down, and while pretending to feel his ankle, he steadied his emotions.
At that mont, Jiang Chen turned to the Wang couple, "Three days later, when your son dies and you go to find him, he’ll shrug off the responsibility, claiming you didn’t take proper care, and that his death has nothing to do with him. This way, he caused death but still managed to get the money. How can you allow such a detestable person to treat illnesses?"
"You’re talking nonsense!"
The Divine Doctor didn’t wait for the Wang couple to react and burst out yelling, his face beet-red as if greatly wronged, pointing at Jiang Chen, "Kid, you are slandering ! I, Li Guorong, have practiced dicine for many years and my reputation as a Divine Doctor has spread across Dingjing. How could I possibly do such a thing!"
With that, Li Guorong turned towards the Wang couple, raising his voice and saying proudly, "You Wang Family are truly despicable, allowing such an insolent brat to slander here. I refuse to treat your son’s illness!"
Having said that, he limped, making a show of leaving.
"No, Divine Doctor Li, please don’t go," pleaded the Wang couple in panic, blocking Li Guorong’s way. Then they looked angrily at Jiang Chen, teeth clenched, "Kid, it seems you really take our Wang Family for fools that can be easily deceived? I will make you pay the price! Bring people in!"
Following an angry roar, a throng of figures burst in from outside the door, all Protectors of the Wang Family.
Su Qingqing panicked upon seeing so many people and grabbed Jiang Chen, "Jiang Chen, stop fooling around, let’s just leave."
"Want to leave? Too late!!"
Wang Dingguo sneered and gave an order, "Take him out and beat him, beat him hard, then call the police to have him thrown into jail!"
But Jiang Chen simply pushed Su Qingqing away, "Who said I was leaving?"
As he finished speaking, he faced the Protectors and bodyguards, throwing punches and kicks, surprisingly fending off the attack of so many people.
Could it be? This strong!
The bystanders were dumbfounded.
Yet, as Jiang Chen was warding off others, his eyes didn’t even glance at the Protectors and bodyguards, instead he was fixed on Wang Dingguo, shouting, "You’ve been having persistent lower back pain recently and tinnitus when you sleep at night, right?"
Wang Dingguo was stunned. That was right!
Jiang Chen, without pausing, pushed another Protector aside and continued, "You have a family history of illness, soone in your father’s generation died of a kidney disease, didn’t they?"
Wang Dingguo’s complexion completely changed. Right again!
Jiang Chen then kicked another bodyguard aside, still fixing his gaze on Wang Dingguo, he pressed on, "And that’s exactly why you’re worried your son might have the sa issue, so you must have sought so kind of folk redy to give to your son. And after he took it, he ended up like this, right?"
All correct! Wang Dingguo completely lost his composure and quickly shouted, "Stop!"
Gah!
All the bodyguards and Protectors stopped in their tracks, panting heavily, looking at Jiang Chen as if he were a monster. Inside, they were cursing as well.
"Damn it, who is this kid? He’s too powerful. There are so many of us surrounding him, and we can’t even touch him; anwhile, he doesn’t even give us a proper look, playing us as if we’re monkeys."
They guessed that if Jiang Chen really started to fight, all of them would have already been lying down.
Thinking this, every bodyguard and Protector was deeply shocked, and they looked at Jiang Chen as if they were looking at a god.
Su Qingqing’s gaze towards Jiang Chen grew even more infatuated.
So handso! Truly too handso!
The Divine Doctor was stunned. Damn it, with skills like that, why don’t you beco a bodyguard? Why are you stealing my business?
Wang Dingguo, however, was concerned about sothing else. He grabbed Jiang Chen, "You, how did you know all of that just now?"
Jiang Chen pointed to his eyes and said with a smile, "I saw it."
"Then... this..." Wang Dingguo hesitated at that mont. Right then, he had already started to believe in Jiang Chen’s dical expertise. A doctor who could see so much with just his eyes couldn’t possibly be inept.
However, Li Guorong was still by his side at that mont, and he didn’t know who he should let treat the patient.
Wu Xiui was still expressing skepticism towards Jiang Chen, looking at him as if he were a fraudster.
Jiang Chen knew about their hesitation and smiled, pointing to Li Guorong, "I know you still don’t believe , but that’s okay. You can continue to let this Divine Doctor treat. However, before the treatnt, have him write a statent explaining that if the patient suddenly dies within three days, he assus all consequences, willing to compensate and go to jail. Let’s see if he dares!"
Upon hearing this, the Divine Doctor’s complexion changed drastically.
Upon hearing this, Wang Dingguo imdiately nodded. Right, this would also be a good thod. Thus, he turned his gaze towards Li Guorong.
Wu Xiui, standing by, was anxious. She still believed in Li Guorong, "Divine Doctor, just write the statent. It would set our minds at ease, and it will also prove that kid wrong! If you write the statent, I will let you continue the treatnt, and I guarantee we’ll deal with that troublemaker!"
Wang Dingguo frowned, slightly displeased, but he didn’t stop her.
"Write it I will!"
Li Guorong slapped his chest in assurance and strode over to Jiang Chen, "Am I afraid of you?"
"You really dare to write it?" Jiang Chen quipped, his eyes revealing the other man’s nervousness.
"I, of course, dare!" Li Guorong’s mouth twitched a few tis as he swallowed hard, then turned to the Wang couple, "Prepare the statent, just as he said... I’ll go to the bathroom first to wash my hands, then I’ll co back to sign it!"
With that, Li Guorong imdiately scurried away.
Before leaving, he didn’t forget to glare at Jiang Chen, "Kid, just you wait and see."
Jiang Chen also smiled and whispered into his ear:
"Hmm, I’ll wait and see. But a word of advice, you sprained your ankle. Be careful when you’re running away later, don’t break your foot."
"Hiss—"
Li Guorong inhaled sharply as he looked at Jiang Chen as if he were a monster, not daring to utter another word, and hastily left the bedroom.
