"Alright, stop your squabbling. Do as Er Zhu says!"
Just as the two were at each other's throats, Old Chen's eyes darted around, as if he had thought of something.
He had previously asked Lin Quan about him and Er Zhu, so he knew Er Zhu understood medicine!
Furthermore, his medical skills were superb!
"Old Chen, I know you admire Er Zhu, but lives are at stake now. This isn't the time for Er Zhu to show off!"
"Exactly, if the person dies, can this fellow bear the responsibility?"
"Right, Village Doctor Liu is helpless, how can a young man like him possibly save her?"
...
As if a stone had stirred up a thousand waves, before Old Chen could finish speaking, he was met with ridicule and even curses from the villagers of Lin Yuan Village.
Liu Changfa stood to the side. He wanted to speak up for Old Chen, but faced with the current situation, he didn't dare.
He knew Er Zhu was capable, but he had never heard Uncle Liu mention that Er Zhu understood medicine!
Moreover, even if he did, given his age, he would only have a superficial understanding, and he certainly wouldn't succeed in something that even Village Doctor Liu couldn't resolve!
Thinking this, doubt flickered in Liu Changfa's eyes. He scrutinized Er Zhu carefully, and his admiration for Er Zhu unconsciously diminished.
He suddenly felt that Er Zhu might indeed be showing off.
"What do you all know? Er Zhu even cured epilepsy, doesn't that prove his medical skills?"
Old Chen looked at everyone as if they were fools, a hint of anger flashing in his eyes.
Instantly, the scene fell silent. Everyone looked at Er Zhu with disbelief.
They knew about epilepsy; it was an extremely difficult disease to treat, one that even Village Doctor Liu couldn't cure, yet this young man before them had accomplished it!
Village Doctor Liu's eyes widened, his mouth agape, almost large enough to fit a ping pong ball!
Curing epilepsy completely was simply a medical miracle!
"If you don't listen to me, then do as you please."
Facing everyone's gazes, Er Zhu remained calm. He took a few steps back and said no more.
He had said all he needed to say. Whether the person lived or died was their own choice.
He wasn't a reincarnation of Buddha; he didn't need to save all sentient beings!
"No, no, no, I'll listen to my little brother in everything!"
A few seconds later, Hu San, panting, snatched the woman from Qian Fugui's hands, begging as he placed her on the ground.
At this moment, Qian Fugui, who had been petrified, finally came to his senses. Old Chen's words still echoed in his ears.
Er Zhu could cure epilepsy?
When had such a prodigy appeared in the remote village of Shiliu?
Er Zhu said nothing. He merely looked at Hu San's wife's pale face, a flash of insight in his eyes.
"Please, saving a life is better than building a seven-story pagoda. If you can save my wife, I'll do anything you ask."
Seeing Er Zhu remain silent, Hu San thought Er Zhu was unwilling. He knelt down with a thud, kowtowing and begging.
"Get up. I'm just examining the condition."
Er Zhu's eyes lost their gleam at the sound of kowtowing, and he slowly spoke.
Hu San was stunned. He repeatedly thanked Er Zhu and retreated to the side.
At this point, all the villagers came back to their senses and crowded around.
So what if he could cure epilepsy?
No matter how difficult that disease was to cure, at least the diagnosis was confirmed. But this time, the diagnosis was impossible!
Some villagers huddled together, whispering to each other, with occasional laughter erupting.
Village Doctor Liu seemed to have an epiphany as he reconsidered.
Not far away, Qian Fugui's eyes glinted, a hint of slyness appearing.
He had always wanted to humiliate Er Zhu, and now was the best opportunity!
If Hu San's wife died, Hu San would definitely not let him off, and might even send him to jail!
Er Zhu, Er Zhu, you can't blame me. You brought this upon yourself by showing off!
Qian Fugui's eyes lit up, and a wicked smile involuntarily appeared on his lips.
The other village leaders seemed to have thought of something too, their lips curling into similar malicious smiles.
Er Zhu naturally knew what Qian Fugui was thinking, but he didn't care. He slowly took out a silver needle pouch from his pocket.
Dragon King had just taught him a set of acupuncture techniques a few days ago, and he wanted to try it out.
"Don't rush. Your wife just has blood stasis, but the location of the stasis is a bit unusual, which is why Village Doctor Liu couldn't find it."
Er Zhu explained to Hu San as he drew out a silver needle as fine as a hair from the pouch.
Hu San wiped away his tears and kowtowed beside him, repeatedly thanking Er Zhu. Village Doctor Liu scoffed from a distance.
Blood stasis was the most common type of ailment in Traditional Chinese Medicine. Even if its location was unusual, could he not find it?
He now seriously suspected the old man's earlier words, but seeing that the old man was dressed well, he didn't want to expose him.
If a young man wanted to show off, let him. He didn't have to take responsibility anyway, and he had no personal connection to this patient.
Swish, swish, swish...
As Village Doctor Liu was lost in thought, Er Zhu had already inserted the silver needles into the corresponding acupoints.
Village Doctor Liu's eyes widened in shock as he looked closely.
"Dispersing Divine Needle Technique!"
Village Doctor Liu's voice drew everyone's attention to the silver needles. Although they didn't understand, their eyes showed shock.
"What is it? What's so mysterious about this needle technique?"
Hu San wiped away his tears, his eyes red, and asked with confusion and anxiety.
"This needle technique is rumored to have been created by the divine physician Bian Que, but due to the extreme difficulty in obtaining the necessary silver needles and the high requirements for the practitioner, it was never passed down. This technique is incredibly effective for blood stasis!"
Whoosh!
As soon as Village Doctor Liu finished speaking, a stream of black blood flowed out along the silver needles, and the woman slowly opened her eyes.
"She's awake! My wife is awake!"
Hu San pointed at his wife and shouted with immense excitement and joy.
At the same time, everyone's gaze turned to Hu San's wife. Their eyes were now filled with horror!
It truly had a miraculous effect!
She woke up so quickly!
"Hu San, what happened to me?"
As soon as the woman opened her eyes, she saw thousands of pairs of eyes. A flicker of fear appeared in her eyes, and she weakly asked.
"It's nothing, the important thing is that you're well."
Hu San wanted to explain, but he didn't know how to, so he simply stopped talking.
A hint of confusion flashed in the woman's eyes. Although she wanted to ask, she was too exhausted...
"Carry her to bed to rest. She'll be completely recovered in a few days."
As the woman closed her eyes again, everyone heard Er Zhu's voice.
This time, everyone's eyes were filled with shock and admiration. Even Village Doctor Liu's impression of Er Zhu had greatly changed.
He had been practicing medicine for over twenty years, but he had never seen such exquisite medical skills in a village doctor!
And so young!
Thinking of the power of the Dispersing Divine Needle Technique and seeing the stagnant blood on the ground, Village Doctor Liu was filled with admiration.
However, as someone from a family of doctors, while admiring, he also felt a tinge of jealousy. He silently lowered his head, unwilling to look at Er Zhu.
Not far away, Qian Fugui and the others, who had been waiting to witness a spectacle, were already utterly shocked!
