"Let's go in and take a look!"
Jiang Yi said, and walked straight into the hospital.
After reaching the second floor, he looked up and saw that the corridor was filled with people, all their eyes focused on the patient room on the far left.
"She's the院长, Shen Lu, of our hospital!"
Li Qing pointed to a woman in a blue business suit and said to Jiang Yi.
Jiang Yi looked towards Shen Lu.
He saw that the woman had sharp eyes, giving off an aura of authority even without anger.
Jiang Yi was somewhat surprised. He had previously thought that the hospital's院长 was an old man, but he didn't expect it to be a beautiful young woman.
"He's the head of the Zhu family!"
Li Qing pointed to an old man and said.
The old man looked to be around sixty years old, with a slightly stout build. He was currently looking worriedly into the patient room.
Behind the head of the Zhu family were several members of the Zhu family, each exuding an extraordinary aura.
In addition, over twenty Zhu family bodyguards stood in the corridor.
The Zhu family's entourage was indeed considerable.
Just then, the副院长 walked out of the crowd, greeted Jiang Yi, and then said to Shen Lu, "院长, this is the highly skilled doctor, Zhang San, that I told you about. We all witnessed his Plum Blossom Thirteen Needles."
Upon hearing this, Shen Lu looked Jiang Yi up and down.
Seeing how young Jiang Yi was, Shen Lu's face showed a skeptical expression.
She found it hard to believe that Jiang Yi possessed such astonishing acupuncture skills.
"Hello, Director Shen!"
Jiang Yi extended his hand, intending to shake hands with Shen Lu.
Shen Lu did not intend to shake hands with Jiang Yi.
"I've heard about your situation. Stay and work diligently at the hospital, and I won't mistreat you!"
Shen Lu said.
Jiang Yi shrugged, thinking this woman was rather arrogant!
"You're not needed here anymore. Go take care of your own affairs!" Shen Lu said to Jiang Yi.
"Mm!"
Jiang Yi responded, then turned and walked towards the end of the corridor.
Li Qing followed him.
"Why did you lie to me?" Shen Lu looked at the副院长.
The副院长 was stunned!
He didn't immediately comprehend.
"He's so young, he doesn't look like a skilled doctor at all. How could he possibly know the Plum Blossom Thirteen Needles?" Shen Lu stared at the副院长.
"院长, it's true!"
The副院长 quickly said, "We all saw him use the Plum Blossom Thirteen Needles at the time. There's absolutely no mistake about it!"
"Humph!"
Shen Lu snorted, "None of you know the Plum Blossom Thirteen Needles, so how can you be sure that the acupuncture technique he used wasn't the Plum Blossom Thirteen?"
This question stumped the副院长.
"What is seen is not necessarily true. It's possible he used a technique similar to the Plum Blossom Thirteen Needles," Shen Lu said.
The副院长 frowned slightly upon hearing this.
"I've never thought about this before!"
The副院长 glanced at Jiang Yi's retreating figure and took a deep breath. "It seems I need to test him. Perhaps he might really be a con artist."
Shen Lu said nothing further.
The副院长's expression began to change, becoming more complex.
Shen Lu's words had planted a seed of doubt in his mind.
"副院长, I have a way to test whether Zhang San is a fraud!" Chen Ping whispered to the副院长.
"What way?"
The副院长 asked.
"It's very simple. Let the divine doctor brought back by the 院长 try his acupuncture skills," Chen Ping said.
"But it's difficult to bring this up! If Zhang San truly knows the Plum Blossom Thirteen Needles, won't we offend him!"
The副院长 looked troubled. "Zhang San is the star of our hospital..."
"副院长, we can introduce Jiang Yi to the divine doctor the 院长 brought back! That old man is proud and arrogant. As soon as he hears that Zhang San knows the Plum Blossom Thirteen Needles, he'll definitely want to spar with Zhang San, and then we can test Zhang San's abilities!" Chen Ping smiled.
"Haha..."
The副院长 burst into laughter. "Chen Ping, you kid truly have some wit. If this works out, I won't treat you poorly!"
"Thank you, 副院长!" Chen Ping said quickly.
Meanwhile, Jiang Yi returned to his office. Bored, he opened the window and sat on his chair, admiring the scenery outside.
Li Qing dared not disturb Jiang Yi, so she walked out of the office and gently closed the door.
About an hour later, Li Qing returned!
"How is the patient's condition?" Jiang Yi asked.
"Divine Doctor Xue has stabilized Young Master Ma's condition. Young Master Ma has just woken up."
Li Qing said, "Everyone is praising Divine Doctor Xue's medical skills. Even the head of the Ma family has praised Divine Doctor Xue as the number one divine doctor in Jiang Province."
After speaking, Li Qing frowned. "Divine Doctor Xue is very arrogant, he seems like a megalomaniac."
Jiang Yi's lips curved upward when he heard this.
This Divine Doctor Xue might be problematic.
The Heavenly Spirit Acupuncture technique was a very powerful one. It was impossible that after using the Heavenly Spirit Acupuncture technique, the patient's condition would only be stabilized.
There were only two possible explanations for this situation.
First, Divine Doctor Xue did not know the Heavenly Spirit Acupuncture technique; he was a fraud.
Second, Divine Doctor Xue did not want to cure Young Master Ma.
Now, Jiang Yi was becoming increasingly curious about this Divine Doctor Xue.
Just then, the office door was pushed open.
The副院长 walked in from outside.
"Zhang San, you and Divine Doctor Xue are both acupuncture experts. I plan to introduce you to Divine Doctor Xue. You don't have any objections, do you?" the副院长 said with a smile to Jiang Yi.
"Alright!"
Jiang Yi stood up from his chair. "I'm also very eager to witness the skills of this Divine Doctor Xue."
After speaking, Jiang Yi followed the副院长 out of the office.
At this time, in the lounge, a group of people were surrounding a thin old man.
This old man was none other than Divine Doctor Xue, who was treating Young Master Ma.
Shen Lu and the head of the Ma family were talking to Divine Doctor Xue with smiling faces, their attitudes very courteous.
"Divine Doctor Xue, our hospital also has a divine doctor with very high medical skills. I would like to introduce him to you."
The副院长 said, then pointed to Jiang Yi. "His name is Zhang San, and he just started working at our hospital a few days ago..."
Divine Doctor Xue glanced at Jiang Yi and sneered.
"This kid?" Divine Doctor Xue asked.
"Yes!"
The副院长 nodded quickly.
"Hello..." Jiang Yi spoke to greet Divine Doctor Xue.
"With your young age, you dare to call yourself a divine doctor!"
Divine Doctor Xue looked at Jiang Yi with disdain. "Kid, you're quite bold to dare to come in front of me and deceive people."
After speaking, Divine Doctor Xue looked at the副院长. "You've been deceived by this kid."
"Divine Doctor Xue, Zhang San's acupuncture skills are very advanced. His specialty is the Plum Blossom Thirteen Needles!" the副院长 said quickly.
Divine Doctor Xue paused upon hearing this.
Then, Divine Doctor Xue burst into laughter and said to the副院长, "The Plum Blossom Thirteen Needles is one of the ten lost acupuncture techniques. Although it's not as good as my Heavenly Spirit Needles, it's still a very formidable technique."
Everyone present burst into laughter upon hearing this.
