"Li Se, can my dad's legs still be healed?" Jiang Ranran asked nervously.
"Yes!" Li Se nodded.
Jiang Dashan didn't quite believe it. His leg condition had worsened over the years, and he hadn't received proper treatment. Doctors had examined him before, and walking again was almost impossible. However, it was Li Se's kind gesture, so he didn't say much.
Li Se took out his acupuncture needles. There were nine in total. Frankly speaking, the cells and nerves in Jiang Dashan's legs were all dead. In such a condition, treating it would be akin to rebuilding them, a task of immense difficulty that current medical standards found hard to achieve. Yet, he could treat it because he knew the Heavenly Physician's Nine Needles.
These nine needles were the Chan needle, Yuan needle, Di needle, Feng needle, Pi needle, Yuanli needle, Hao needle, Chang needle, and Da needle.
The Heavenly Physician's Nine Needles were also known as the Nine Needles Against Heaven.
The upper three needles give life, the middle three needles bring death, and the lower three needles regenerate flesh and bone!
Of course, this was just a saying; in reality, during treatment, all nine needles often needed to be used simultaneously.
At this moment, to treat Jiang Dashan's thigh, nine needles needed to be inserted simultaneously. As the nine needles pierced his thigh, Li Se placed his palm over them, channeling spiritual energy into the needles. A warmth immediately spread into his thigh, and the temperature rapidly increased.
"It's hot," Jiang Dashan couldn't help but say.
"Dad, you said your thigh is hot?" Jiang Ranran exclaimed in disbelief.
After the acupuncture, Li Se quickly withdrew the needles and handed the herbal medicine he brought to Jiang Ranran, saying, "Simmer these herbs over a slow fire for two hours. Give Uncle two doses daily. I've also brought some braces for him."
Li Se first ground the external application medicine into a paste, then covered Jiang Dashan's thigh with sterile gauze and secured it with the braces. He added, "I will come for acupuncture once a week. After about three sessions, you should be able to walk."
"Really?" Jiang Dashan was somewhat excited. He hadn't held much hope, but now his thigh actually had sensation.
"Really," Li Se nodded.
"Thank you so much, really, thank you so much." Jiang Dashan clasped Li Se's hand, filled with gratitude. He now believed that Li Se could truly heal his leg.
After leaving the room, Jiang Ranran hugged Li Se directly, her arms wrapped around his neck, looking as if she wanted a kiss.
"Not today," Jiang Ranran said charmingly. "I'm on my period."
Li Se felt as if a bucket of cold water had been poured over him, leaving him quite dejected. "You're doing this on purpose, aren't you?"
Jiang Ranran's face flushed slightly. "Once I'm better, I'll give myself to you."
Jiang Ranran had always been very chaste, never even having a boyfriend. Li Se was her first. Perhaps it was because she had never dated before that she was so passionate.
At least, that's what Li Se thought, as he found Jiang Ranran to be a very quiet girl, but unexpectedly passionate when it came to romance.
After all, they hadn't seen each other for a year. They had only met again yesterday, and he had confessed his feelings yesterday. If it weren't for her period today, they might have progressed further.
The two of them went out for a meal and also packed a meal for Jiang Dashan. At this moment, Li Se received a text message notification for a payment of seventy million, transferred to him by Chen Bin.
As soon as he received the message, he got a call from Chen Bin: "Did you receive the money?"
"Yes, I've received it," Li Se replied.
"The small Guanyin you requested for customization should be ready tomorrow. I'll bring it to you then." Chen Bin's tone was still somewhat excited, as he had obtained imperial green jade. Although it wasn't large, the finished product would be the shop's prized possession!
Because of this, he had been praised repeatedly by his father and was even invited to have dinner with Li Se.
"Okay," Li Se planned to use this imperial green jade to craft a small Guanyin into a protective amulet for his mother and Jiang Ranran. The better the quality of the jade, the more effective the amulet would be and the more durable.
Bang!
Suddenly, a loud noise came from the other end of the phone.
Li Se frowned, "Chen Bin, did something happen on your end?"
"Oh no, a customer who just bought a pendant got into a car accident. I have to go, bye." Chen Bin hastily hung up the phone and immediately rushed out of the shop. The next second, he was stunned because the customer who had been hit by the car was completely unharmed.
"Are you alright?" Since the customer had made a purchase at his shop, Chen Bin still walked over and asked with concern, "Do you need me to call an ambulance?"
The driver of the car also ran over, looking very nervous.
The person looked bewildered. "I'm fine."
The driver and Chen Bin were both shocked. They had been knocked flying like that, yet there wasn't a single drop of blood. Anyone would think this person practiced some divine art.
"Wait!" The person suddenly felt something strange and reached into his pocket, pulling out the pendant he had just bought from the jewelry store. "This pendant is cracked, and its color has also dulled. Could this thing have protected me?"
It was a Guanyin pendant, bought for peace and protection.
Upon seeing the pendant, Chen Bin's pupils contracted. Li Se had told him that this pendant had been blessed. He had initially dismissed it and put it back in the shop for sale. Coincidentally, this person bought it today.
"Could it be that this pendant was truly blessed by Li Se?" Chen Bin's expression changed slightly. His breathing quickened, and he immediately ran back into the shop, grabbed his phone, and called Li Se again.
"How is it, was the car accident serious?" Li Se's voice came through as soon as the call connected.
"The person is fine," Chen Bin took a deep breath. "That person was wearing the pendant you gave me and was hit by a car. The person was completely unharmed, but the pendant cracked and dulled. Is this pendant really blessed?"
"Yes," Li Se raised an eyebrow. "This pendant was meant for you, but this is for the best, it saved a life."
"Can you make a few more for me?" Chen Bin asked excitedly.
Li Se chuckled, "Yes, but I can't make too many at once. How about this, you get something small customized with imperial green jade, and I'll bless it for you."
