The Urban Medical Martial Immortal

Chapter 752: Chapter 748: Crawl Out (First Update!)

Changsheng Medical Hall was bustling with many patients today.

Peng Quhui and his wife had spread their word of mouth reputation overnight.

This was quite unexpected for Lin Tian.

Early in the morning, however, Xian Jingzheng from the neighboring Huai Ren Medical Hall came by to sabotage the effort.

After he finished speaking, the crowd that had formed a long line in the medical hall started to stir.

A small portion of the people began to leave, while those who remained all frowned and looked surprised and suspicious.

“We… we used despicable methods?”

Peng Quhui couldn’t believe that Xian Jingzheng would say such a thing.

Just yesterday, his wife Muuu Ziyi had been at death’s door, and if not for Lin Tian’s intervention, her life would have been uncertain!

It was bad enough that the other party didn’t offer to treat her, but now, in order to repay Lin Tian, he had mobilized various connections overnight to publicize Lin Tian’s medical hall.

So many people had come early in the morning because of that.

But unexpectedly, Xian Jingzheng came in person and accused them of being shills!

This made Peng Quhui extremely angry!

Standing beside him, Muuu Ziyi’s face turned ashen with indignation as she angrily shouted, “Have you no shame at all! Seeing Doctor Lin’s medical hall doing well and fearing he might attract all your patients, you refused to treat me yesterday, but now you are biting back like a scoundrel…”

Seeing this, the patients who had come to line up didn’t know who to believe anymore.

Zhou Yadong and Leng Caiwei, both anxious, appeared somewhat at a loss.

They did not know how to handle the situation!

At that moment, the crowd parted, and Lin Tian walked in.

“Master!”

Zhou Yadong and Leng Caiwei were overjoyed to see Lin Tian, as if they had found their pillar of support.

“Doctor Lin!”

Seeing Lin Tian come in, Peng Quhui and his wife quickly greeted him with respect, and then Peng Quhui pointed at Xian Jingzheng and said, “Doctor Lin, this man has come to bite back at us, you must prove it to them! You cured my wife, your medical skill is astounding, and your medical morality is unparalleled, he must not be allowed to slander you!”

“You didn’t need to go through all this trouble!”

Lin Tian waved his hand dismissively at Peng Quhui and his wife and then looked at Xian Jingzheng with a cold voice, “Early in the morning and you come barking up my medical hall, don’t you think you’re lacking some canine decency? Now, get out!”

With that, Lin Tian’s gaze swept over the other people still lingering in the medical hall and said coolly, “Those who believe in my medical skill, stay behind, I will treat you! Those who don’t, leave, I won’t force you to stay!”

What?

Is he trying to send people away?

Peng Quhui and Muuu Ziyi both thought they misheard and stood with their mouths agape in confusion.

Even Zhou Yadong and Leng Caiwei, who had seen Lin Tian’s personality, were slightly taken aback.

It was no easy feat to get so many patients to come, and now he was willing to send them away!

“What… what are you saying?”

The people who had been ready to line up for treatment were also baffled; one of them looked at Lin Tian and spoke out.

It was their first time encountering a medical hall that would send people away; it was unheard of and unseen, and they were perplexed!

“You say they should believe in your medical skill? Does that mean you’re the doctor here, the owner of this medical hall? And you’re trying to send people away? Ha ha ha ha…”

Xian Jingzheng was initially startled, then burst into laughter, pointing at Lin Tian and saying to the others, “Look at him, look… he’s given himself away! He’s so young, yet claims to be the doctor of this Traditional Chinese Medicine hall! Moreover, he’s actually trying to send people away; not only does he refuse to treat the sick kindly, but he also insults me, clearly, he is feeling guilty!”

“Could it be a dishonest doctor, a fake medical hall? Are they both shills?”

The crowd stirred wildly, and many began to question.

“You… you’re twisting the truth!”

Peng Quhui trembled with rage, pointing angrily at Xian Jingzheng.

Muuu Ziyi was also furious beyond measure.

The couple had traveled far and wide and had seen shameless people, but they had never seen someone this shameless!

“Master…”

Zhou Yadong and Leng Caiwei were also anxious, as their hard-earned reputation was now being undermined by Xian Jingzheng.

“I’ll give you three breaths to get lost, or I’ll personally throw you out!”

Lin Tian’s face turned icy as he glared at Xian Jingzheng and shouted sternly.

He didn’t care whether others came for treatment or not, life and death were choices to be made by individuals, but he would not be polite to those who came here to cause trouble!

“This… Look, they’re about to hit someone!”

Xian Jingzheng met Lin Tian’s gaze and couldn’t help feeling afraid, taking a step back while complaining to the people around him.

“My God, it really is a black-hearted medical hall. Now that they’re exposed, they’re going to resort to violence! We’ve all been deceived by this couple…”

There were exclamations from the crowd.

For a moment, the throng cramming the medical hall erupted into chaos, with many prepared to turn and leave.

“Doctor Xian, Doctor Xian, my son has fainted again, please take a look!”

Suddenly, from outside came a series of shouts as a middle-aged woman, clutching a seven- or eight-year-old boy, burst in, arriving in front of Xian Jingzheng and crying out, “Your nurse said you were here, please take a look at my son! Didn’t you say he would be cured after taking the Chinese medicine you prescribed? Now he has fallen into a coma again! Please, take a look, I’ve been to so many hospitals, and only your treatment seemed to work…”

Those patients in the medical hall who initially wanted to leave, upon witnessing this unexpected scene, stopped in their tracks, intrigued by the commotion.

“He’s fainted again? Hmm, let me have a look!”

Xian Jingzheng, surprised, furrowed his brow as he examined the boy’s pulse to assess his condition.

“Ah, your child has innate damage to the meninges, which is difficult to treat! His heart pulse is still unstable, requiring long-term treatment, and the chance of complete recovery is very low. However, regardless of how low the chances are, treatment is needed, right?”

After a while, Xian Jingzheng withdrew his hand and let out a sigh, “Don’t worry, he isn’t in any danger for now, he’s just fallen into a coma.”

“And before that… Ha ha…”

Speaking up to this point, Xian Jingzheng turned back to look at Lin Tian and sneered, “Didn’t you claim you cured this woman’s strange illness yesterday? Now, do you dare to take a look at this kid? I remind you, many expert doctors have been unable to solve this! If you don’t dare, then just shut your doors for good!”

“If she lets me treat her child, I could cure him with a flip of my hand!”

Lin Tian’s expression remained unchanged, speaking indifferently, “Of course, if she doesn’t want to, she should leave quickly!”

“Ha ha ha ha… Cure him with a flip of your hand? What a boastful claim that doesn’t fear a slip of the tongue!”

Xian Jingzheng laughed out loud, taunting, “If you can cure him, I will crawl out of here and never set foot in this place again!”

“You like crawling that much? Then I’ll oblige you!”

Lin Tian’s expression turned cold and he immediately addressed the middle-aged woman, “Your child’s condition is not as simple as a coma; delaying could threaten his life at any moment! If you don’t want your child to die, let me treat him now!”

Lin Tian didn’t consider himself a particularly good person, but he was not someone who could ignore someone dying without helping.

He had already examined the little boy with his Divine Sense; innate damage to the meninges in his head had worsened significantly.

If Xian Jingzheng continued treatment, the boy could lose his life at any moment!

“Can… can you really cure him?”

The middle-aged woman looked at Lin Tian with skepticism.

Lin Tian was so young, how could he possibly be a qualified practitioner of Traditional Chinese Medicine?

“Just let him have a look; he was even boasting earlier about curing a terminal illness. There are exaggerated ads all over outside! I will watch over; your child will be fine…”

Xian Jingzheng chimed in with encouragement at that moment.

“Yes, yes, let him have a look and expose this black-hearted medical hall, so no more people get harmed!”

Many in the crowd echoed in agreement.

“Opportunities are given only to those who know how to seize them!”

Lin Tian said to the middle-aged woman offhandedly.

As if possessed, the middle-aged woman believed Lin Tian’s words, and with the goading from Xian Jingzheng and others, she decided to take the chance.

Seeing the middle-aged woman’s agreement, Lin Tian stood up, instructed her to lay the boy on the sofa and started his treatment with the silver needles.

The silver needles darted like lightning in Lin Tian’s hands, leaving the onlookers, who were waiting to mock and discredit Lin Tian, gaping wide-eyed.

In less than a few minutes, the boy opened his eyes; he had regained consciousness, his complexion rosy, looking robust as if he had never been ill at all.

“Is he cured just like that? That’s miraculous!”

Many started to marvel.

Xian Jingzheng, observing Lin Tian’s acupuncture technique, had turned sour-faced early on.

Such mastery of acupuncture, not to mention the extraordinary skill, just the speed alone was unattainable for him.

But he wouldn’t concede, and he hurried forward to check the boy. After a long moment, he exclaimed in shock, “How is this possible? He’s completely cured!”

“Crawl out of here!”

Lin Tian turned his head towards Xian Jingzheng and barked fiercely.
