"Ah! Ah! Ah!"
Old Master Xiao suddenly let out a cry of pain. Upon hearing this, everyone was startled and immediately looked towards Old Master Xiao.
"Dad, what's wrong?" Xiao Qiang said urgently.
But Old Master Xiao was clearly no longer able to reply.
He continued to cry out in pain, and then his entire body began to petrify!
Before long, eighty percent of his body had turned into something resembling plaster!
This situation made Xiao Qiang's face turn deathly pale with fear.
He hurriedly asked Liang Tian, "Doctor Liang, what is going on!"
"Didn't you already cure my dad? Why is he like this now!"
Liang Tian was clearly also caught off guard by this turn of events, and his mind went blank. After a long moment, he managed to stammer out, "How could this happen..."
Seeing that even Liang Tian was clueless, Xiao Qiang became even more anxious.
He shouted, "You were the one who saved him, so why are you asking me!"
Liang Tian suddenly snapped back to reality, and then said in shock, "No, this shouldn't be happening!"
"The Fossil Needle Technique should have cured him. According to logic, this situation should not occur!"
These words were like nonsense to Xiao Qiang, who was hopping with anxiety. He said urgently, "I don't care if you know or not. My dad has become like this, and you must give me an explanation!"
"Otherwise, I won't let you leave here!"
Liang Tian truly had no idea how things had escalated to this point, and he stammered for a long time, not knowing what to say.
At this moment, Wu Tian said faintly, "I already reminded you not to just look at the surface of things, but you wouldn't listen. See, now there's trouble."
Upon hearing Wu Tian's teasing, Liang Tian immediately retorted angrily, "Stop spewing your sarcastic remarks here. What do you know about what's happening!"
Wu Tian said calmly, "Of course I know. If I hadn't known from the beginning that your method was flawed, why would I have made a bet with you? Do you think I'm an idiot?"
Xiao Lu trusted Wu Tian very much, so she asked him, "Wu Tian, what exactly is going on? Is his needling technique problematic?"
"But if that's the case, then why did Grandpa get better earlier?"
Wu Tian replied, "The reason is very simple. It's because the Fossil Needle Technique was effective."
"But the Fossil Needle Technique isn't meant to be used the way he did it, so it's not surprising at all that this situation has occurred."
He continued, "The so-called Fossil Needle Technique is indeed the only way to treat petrification."
"However, the Fossil Needle Technique itself has a flaw. If only this needle technique is used, it can only maintain its effect for three minutes."
"After three minutes, the petrification effect will rebound, and the patient's petrification will become even more severe. Within an hour, their entire body will crack, leading to death."
Wu Tian's words sent a cold sweat down everyone's backs.
Xiao Lu's beautiful eyes widened, and she stared blankly, "So, if you say so, Grandpa has become even worse?"
Wu Tian nodded and said, "While that might sound alarmist, that is indeed the reality."
"So, in the final analysis, it's because he doesn't understand the Fossil Needle Technique that things have turned out this way."
Hearing Wu Tian's explanation, Xiao Qiang was instantly enraged.
He grabbed Liang Tian by the collar and roared, "You bastard! This is all your fault, I'm going to beat you to death!"
Liang Tian was completely stunned.
He never expected things to take such a sharp turn, plunging him into such a predicament.
However, he felt a sense of injustice.
He believed that things were not as Wu Tian described, and struggled, "Let go of me! I am a genius doctor. If you don't believe me, fine, but you actually believe him?"
"He's just making up stories to scare you. I'm not wrong, I am absolutely not wrong!"
Wu Tian looked at him and said, "Doctor Liang, didn't you say you have treated many patients with petrification?"
"But if your clinical experience is so rich, then why wouldn't you know the side effects of the Fossil Needle Technique?"
"So, in the end, am I allowed to suspect that everything you've said is nothing but a lie?"
Liang Tian faltered again, and then said with a flushed face, "You're talking nonsense! How could I be fake!"
"My Fossil Needle Technique is absolutely fine. In the end, it must be his own problem!"
"So, it's not my fault. The blame can only be placed on him!"
Wu Tian shook his head and said, "You're really good at shifting blame. With just a few words, you've managed to cast off all responsibility."
"In that case, you truly are the king of stubbornness!"
Liang Tian was already confused by the current situation, and being mocked by Wu Tian like this made him feel like his mind was about to explode.
He said angrily, "What do you know? You can only open your mouth and spout nonsense!"
"If you really have the ability, then cure him!"
"If you can't do it, then it means you're just someone who only talks the talk!"
He originally thought that Wu Tian wouldn't dare to accept his challenge.
But to his surprise, Wu Tian nodded and said, "Alright, I'll cure him if that's what it takes."
"After all, I've already told you, if anything goes wrong, I'll take responsibility, right?"
"So, don't worry, with me here today, he absolutely won't be in any danger."
Liang Tian was dumbfounded, while Xiao Qiang asked with full of hope, "Wu Tian, are you serious? Can you really save my dad?"
Wu Tian smiled and said, "Don't worry, Mr. Xiao. I'm not like him, making empty promises. If I say I can, then I can."
With that, Wu Tian flipped his hand, and silver needles immediately appeared in his palm.
Xiao Qiang asked doubtfully, "Using needles? But my dad's body has become like this, what's the use of needles now? There's no place to insert them!"
Wu Tian smiled and said, "Mr. Xiao, that's not something you need to worry about. Just watch, I guarantee the needles will cure the illness!"
After speaking, Wu Tian casually waved the silver needles.
The slender silver needles, with incredible force, pierced directly through the plaster on Old Master Xiao's body and entered his acupoints!
Seeing this, Liang Tian's eyes almost popped out of his head.
Because he discovered that the placement of the silver needles was exactly the same as the Fossil Needle Technique!
