Chapter 6 Give Me a Chance!

Luo Shifei's pretty face completely fell, "Who exactly is sabotaging us from behind?"

She was outraged!

And who else possessed such strength to make the Luo family suffer a setback?

Meanwhile, in Jiangcheng, at Hundred Herbs Hall, Qin Jiang got out of the taxi. Shen Longting said that the medicinal herbs here were the best in Jiangcheng, so he had rushed over.

Qin Jiang walked in.

Inside the medical hall sat an old man, with white hair and beard, looking very spirited and having an air of immortal-like grace.

This elder was none other than Li Jiushu, the current number one divine doctor of Jiangcheng.

Seeing Qin Jiang come in, he amiably asked, "Young friend, are you here to see a doctor or to get medicine?"

"To get medicine." Qin Jiang took out the prescription he had prepared.

Li Jiushu, took a look at the prescription and his eyes revealed a look of astonishment, "Young friend, the one who prescribed this medicine is no ordinary person!"

The more he looked, the more astounded he became. The fusion of medical principles in it even made him palpitate; the person who had prescribed this medicine was definitely a master.

"Young brother, where did you get these two prescriptions?"

Qin Jiang said indifferently, "I drafted them up myself."

Drafted them up himself?

Hearing this, Li Jiushu naturally didn't believe him, shook his head, and assumed that Qin Jiang didn't wish to tell him, so he didn't pry further.

"Xiaoling, come out and help fetch the medicine." Li Jiushu called out, and a young girl in her early twenties with a beautiful face and agile grace came out from the back.

"Take this young brother's prescription and prepare the medicine according to the instructions," Li Jiushu instructed.

She saw that the prescription did not have a doctor's approval and cast Qin Jiang a glance, reprimanding, "You prescribed this medicine yourself? That's quite bold. What if it kills someone?"

"Ahem—"

Li Jiushu coughed twice, saying awkwardly, "Xiaoling, I've looked over it, and there's no issue with the prescription. Moreover, its profundity is even beyond my own! It's okay to prepare it."

Hearing such high praise from her grandfather, Li Xiaoling's mind trembled! Could it be true, that this young man possessed such great skill?

She cast Qin Jiang a doubtful glance and turned to enter the pharmacy.

Li Jiushu wanted to continue talking to Qin Jiang, but at that moment, another young girl rushed into the medical hall, supporting a middle-aged man in a hurry.

"Grandfather Li, my dad's old illness has flared up again, please take a look at him quickly!"

Upon hearing this, Li Jiushu's eyes flickered with urgency as he hurriedly stepped out from behind the counter, "Oh, Mr. Zhang... Despite being busy with work, you can't push your body to its limits!"

The middle-aged man was gasping for breath, clutching his chest, with a pained expression on his face.

He sighed deeply.

He quickly performed acupuncture on the middle-aged man.

However, this time not only did the middle-aged man not exhibit the slightest symptom of relief, but his expression became even more pained, and his whole body started to tremble uncontrollably!

Just then, Qin Jiang said indifferently, "Your acupuncture is ineffective on him, and if you delay further, he will die on the spot!"

Li Jiushu was taken aback.

Zhang Shuqing's pretty face darkened, "What nonsense are you talking about!"

How dare he curse her father to death?

Seeing Qin Jiang act like a harbinger of doom, she wished she could go up to him right now and slap him twice!

Qin Jiang, with an expressionless face, said, "If you trust me, let me have a look."

By rights, he shouldn't have meddled in others' affairs, but the Crazy Old Man had also told him, those who practiced medicine ought to have compassion in their hearts!

It was not his style to stand by indifferently in the face of death.

Zhang Shuqing's pretty face darkened further, "You? Are you qualified?"

Even Li Jiushu, a veteran traditional Chinese medicine practitioner with decades of experience, couldn't cure her father's disease, let alone Qin Jiang, a young upstart!

Li Jiushu said solemnly, "Shuqing, Mr. Zhang's condition has suddenly worsened severely this time, and I'm at my wits' end..."

"Moreover, looking at Mr. Zhang's condition, I don't know if he can hold on until we get to a hospital! Perhaps, we can let this young man have a try!"

No sooner had he finished speaking, without waiting for Zhang Shuqing to say anything, Qin Jiang had already stepped forward, a silver needle appearing in his hand, which he thrust straight into the chest of the middle-aged man!

As the needle fell...

The middle-aged man's face showed an even deeper shade of pain.

Then, without any expression, Qin Jiang inserted three more silver needles successively into the man's central thoracic, heavenly spirit, and Phoenix pool acupuncture points.

Immediately the middle-aged man's skin took on a reddish hue, appearing to be in even greater discomfort!

"You—"

Zhang Shuqing was shocked and wanted to stop Qin Jiang but was held back!

"Grandfather Li, you..."

Li Jiushu said, "The acupuncture he just executed is the lost art of Creation Thirteen Needles!"

"According to medical records, this acupuncture technique is extremely profound. The technique is domineering, opening and closing boldly; no one without certain skills would dare to use it!"

"This young friend's medical skill is far above mine!"

In the blink of an eye, Qin Jiang's actions were like lightning. He quickly inserted all thirteen silver needles into the middle-aged man's acupuncture points throughout his body, and suddenly all thirteen needles began to vibrate in unison!

"Grand Circulation?!"

Witnessing this scene, Li Jiushu was dumbfounded and excited beyond words, as if he were witnessing a miracle!

"In my lifetime, I never thought I would see someone who has reached such a level of medical prowess!"

"This, this..."

Li Jiushu's eyes brimmed with tears, wishing he could prostrate himself in worship that very moment!

"What is the Grand Circulation?" Zhang Shuqing asked, confusion written all over her face.

Li Jiushu was incredibly excited, "When the skill level of Traditional Chinese Medicine reaches a certain threshold, it can resonate with the forces of heaven and earth! The acupuncture technique used by this young man has achieved an extraordinary state, invoking the rhythm of the cosmos!"

"In the terminology of our Traditional Chinese Medicine, this is called the Grand Circulation."

Zhang Shuqing was completely befuddled by this.

Was this young man really that remarkable?

Suddenly!

Zhang Haosheng suddenly spat out a mouthful of foul blood, startling everyone!

Zhang Shuqing panicked, "What have you done to my dad! Get away from him!"

She angrily pushed Qin Jiang away!

Qin Jiang said calmly, "I am saving him, now, he is out of life-threatening danger."

"Nonsense!" Zhang Shuqing exclaimed with wide eyes, "If anything happens to my dad, I will never..."

"Shuqing..."

Suddenly, Zhang Haosheng, who had nearly passed out, sharply chided, "Don't be disrespectful!"

"After spitting out that mouthful of blood that was stuck in my chest, I feel much better!"

Seconds later, his complexion improved, and he struggled to stand up, bowing slightly to Qin Jiang, "Thank you, young friend, for saving my life!"

"No need for such formalities," Qin Jiang said indifferently with a wave of his hand.

Zhang Shuqing was full of shame and wanted to apologize to Qin Jiang but couldn't bring herself to say it!

Meanwhile, Li Xiaoling returned with two bags of medicine in her hand, looking at the situation in front of her with some confusion, "What happened?"

Qin Jiang took the medicine over, paid for it, and then prepared to leave.

"Wait a moment!"

Zhang Haosheng suddenly called out to Qin Jiang, "Could you leave your name? I am..."

Qin Jiang said indifferently, "Treating patients is a doctor's duty. That you encountered me means your life was not meant to end. I'm not interested in knowing who you are!"

"I'm in a hurry, farewell."

Seeing Qin Jiang leave without turning back, Zhang Haosheng was stunned for a moment before bursting into laughter, respect flickering in his eyes.

"This is indeed a great master hiding in plain sight!"

Zhang Shuqing was also stunned and shook her head. If this guy knew who her father was, he would surely regret it for life!

How many people wanted to curry favor with her father but couldn't?

And yet...

This guy had actually said he wasn't interested in who her father was!

Li Jiushu also said with a wry smile, "Mayor Zhang, you were really fortunate just now!"

"However, it's a pity that the young man left..."

"Because, he might be the only one in Jiangcheng who could completely cure you!"

"What?!"

Hearing this, Zhang Haosheng was stunned, his breathing became rapid, "Do you mean to say that he can treat my chronic condition, Mr. Li?"

"Definitely!" Li Jiushu said with conviction on his face.

"Then I cannot miss this opportunity!" Zhang Haosheng murmured, looking in the direction Qin Jiang had left.

After Qin Jiang got the medicine, he went straight to the place where Xu Muge was now staying!

After crossing decrepit streets littered with garbage, he arrived at an old house. Looking at the simple conditions in front of him, he couldn't help but sigh.

Back when Xu Muge was with the Xu Family, she lived the life of a pampered young lady... Now, she was living in a place as ramshackle and dire as a slum!!

And all this... was his doing!

Suppressing the sour feeling in his heart, he stood motionless for half a minute before finally knocking on the door.

Subsequently, a middle-aged man tremblingly opened the door a crack.

"Big brother, can you give us a little more time, please? We really have no money left..."

"Uncle Xu!" Qin Jiang called out guiltily, "It's me."

As he spoke, Xu Jinhong's eyes widened. Recognizing Qin Jiang, rage instantly flared in his eyes!

"Qin Jiang, you beast, you dare to come here?!"

He flung the door open, and with fiery fists of anger, he smashed them into Qin Jiang's face!

Qin Jiang's face throbbed with pain, blood dripping from the corner of his mouth, but he did not evade.

"If hitting me can make you feel better, then do it!" Qin Jiang said resolutely. "I have come back to atone for my sins!"

Xu Jinhong's anger surged even more, "Atone for your sins? With what?!

"My daughter's face was ruined because of you!"

"We were kicked out of the Xu family because of you, reduced to despised strays! You have destroyed us completely! Qin Jiang, what do you have to atone with?"

"Uncle Xu, I swear on my life," Qin Jiang took a deep breath, his tone firm, "I can restore Muge's appearance to how it was before!"

"I can restore the luxurious life you had!"

"If you say the word, I can even put you at the pinnacle of Fengcheng! In the spotlight, respected by all, with no one daring to insult you again!"

"Please give me a chance!"

Xu Jinlong was about to explode in anger when a woman's voice came from inside, "Let him in."
