Chapter 987: One Word and He's Dead!

and ask your mother-in-law to try some fresh ones.""Very well, then. I won't be polite. It's cold today, and we have a brazier burning at home. My mother always says her throat gets dry and itchy this...The Li family's actions are indeed kind and righteous, not just a reputation.

Mr. Tang wasn't a revered teacher, he only taught calligraphy for two years, yet the Li family treated him with such meticulous care, it was truly remarkable.

Dr. Zhang, standing at the back, impatiently said, "If you keep flattering each other, the old man inside will be dead!"

"Oh, yes, yes! Quickly invite Doctor Zhang in!" Dean Zhou personally led the way.

Li Laoer still bowed his hands to everyone and explained, "Zhang Shini's medical skills are superb, but he just has a straightforward temper. I hope you gentlemen will be understanding."

The name "Divine Doctor of Suijin Beach" was well-known throughout the vicinity of Xindu.

"Several gentlemen, where have we offended you" they responded with a smile as they walked towards the house.

"Grandpa, you're too kind."

"Yes, Dr. Zhang is the best! We can't stand listening to those old doctors drone on and on; it's just incomprehensible and gives us a headache."

The old doctor standing in the corner of the room, just as he was about to take a step, froze.

Originally, I stayed to observe my peers' techniques. However, he failed to learn anything and ended up getting hurt instead...

Dr. Zhang washed his hands, roughly pulled up Mr. Tang's sleeve, gave his pulse a quick feel, and ordered, "Take off his shirt! I need to give him acupuncture!"

"Well then, alright." Dr. Zhou held his breath and quickly called for the page boy to help him.

Everyone held their breath, watching as Zhang Shenyi took out a box of golden needles. He flicked them out like darts, brushing them across Mr. Tang's body again and again, turning him into a hedgehog.

Someone worriedly whispered, "Doctor, your acupuncture technique is truly... precise. You must have practiced extensively before."

Zhang Shenyi glanced at him and replied, “Of course, I’ve killed hundreds of pigs and sheep in the village!”

Then that person immediately shrunk their neck and didn't dare to speak again.

A friend in need is a friend indeed!

He didn't want to feel bad for Mr. Tang, but he was afraid that the acupuncture needle would fly at him next time...

Zhang Shenyi snorted coldly, flung out the last golden needle, and took out paper and a pen to write a prescription.

Whatever herb tasted bitter, he would write it down and increase the dosage again and again!

There is no doubt, he is just getting revenge!

Don't think that because he is in the village every day, he doesn't know anything.

Mu Xu that kid and his little apprentice chattered and laughed every day, he saw it all.

As a result, the sudden appearance of this Third Uncle from the Mu family made the young disciple stop smiling.

Yesterday, that kid Mu Xu was even sent all the way to the southwest.

The young apprentice, in the herb garden, uprooted half a ridge of medicinal seedlings in one breath.

Even a fool could tell, it must be this so-called Third Uncle who is stirring up trouble for the two children.

He didn't care what happened to Mu Xu, after all, he was just a kid. How he got beaten up was none of his business.

But his young apprentice couldn't!

He didn't even dare to open his eyes wide, let alone anyone else!

Now that the culprit is in his hands, he still wants to live a comfortable life That's just wishful thinking!

A full page of herbs for the prescription was written quickly.

Doctor Zhang slapped the table and said, “Remove the golden needles in half an hour and wake him up after one hour. Follow the prescription to boil the medicine with two jin of water into a bowl, once in the morning and once in the evening. Avoid greasy food and tea. After a month, he'll be able to walk around!”

Then he turned and walked out.

Li La Er quickly glanced at the veteran, and the veteran immediately followed.

Everyone was astonished. The divine doctor's demeanor was simply too grand, coming and going like the wind.

But it has to be admitted, the divine doctor's skills are truly impressive.

As the acupuncture needle was inserted, Mr. Tang's complexion gradually improved. He no longer looked as if he were about to meet his maker any minute.

A collective sigh of relief swept through the crowd as they saw the old doctor at the academy's shrine studying a prescription.

The Dean of the Week asked, "Doctor, how is it, what rare medicinal materials are needed in this prescription"

The old doctor shook his head repeatedly, his face full of excitement as he replied, "No, no! They are all common medicinal herbs, but the combination is truly ingenious! I've really opened my eyes today!"

Having said that, he hesitated for a moment and added, "The taste of these herbs boiled into soup will definitely be a bit bitter..."

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief and waved their hands dismissively upon hearing this.

"Good medicine tastes bitter! It's fortunate Mr. Tang could save your life despite the danger!"

Li Lao'er also laughed, "That's right, Mr. Tang is already quite old. All this commotion will probably take years off his life."

He turned to Dean Zhou and added, “Dean Zhou, if it’s inconvenient here at the academy, would you perhaps send Mr. Tang to stay with us at Suijin Beach for a while”

"Dean Zhou immediately refused, "Thank you, Master, but we don't need it for now. Let Mr. Tang recuperate at the academy for a few days first. Once he is able to move around, I will ask for his opinion."

Li Lao'er nodded and smiled, "Alright then,院長, I'll go check the canteen first. If anything happens, have someone call me."

"Well, this time, thank you very much, Master Zhou." Dean Zhou bowed to express his gratitude. The other gentlemen also followed suit with their bows.

After Li Lao Er left, everyone couldn't help but praise him a few times, especially those who came later.

"The Li family really knows how to do things!"

"Yes, if I had known this earlier, when Li Jiaren applied for school, I would have fought to get him into my class too."

"Haha, that's none of your business. I guess the dean will grab them first."

As for those who witnessed Mr. Tang having his face peeled, their feelings were complex.

There was no other reason, they were ashamed for Mr. Tang.

Mr. Tang wanted to steal business from the Li family but now he needs the Li family to save him...

Li Lao'er walked all the way to the dining hall, and Li Lao'san came up to meet him.

Seeing that there was no one around, Li Laosan asked, "Second Brother, how is it Did Mr. Tang save him"

Li Lao'er nodded, smiling and asking in a low voice, "Did you hear about it too"

"That's right, the academy is so small, there aren't any secrets. Mr. Tang's attendant ran all the way back with the doctor, and everyone found out. I just don't know why Mr. Tang fell ill"

Li Laosan glanced at his second brother and continued, "Could it be that we sent Mu Xu out of Xindu, which made him furious"

Li Lao Er waved his hand and quickly replied, "Don't worry, it's not because of that. Mu Xu that kid turned back halfway and brought a helper. Although I don't know what they told Mr. Tang, Mr. Tang was so angry he spit blood, it was this kid's doing!"

"Huh" Li Lao San exclaimed in surprise, whispering, "What did this kid do! Wasn't he following Jia Ren to the southwest"

Li Laer's eyes flashed a hint of admiration as he smiled, "Originally, I thought that the Marquis was a little too hasty. Keeping this boy by Fu Niuer's side wasn't appropriate. Now it seems, the Marquis has a good eye for people. This boy has some spirit, I like him! Whatever he wants to do, no matter who tries to stop him, he won't be deterred!"

Li Lao San smiled helplessly and simply didn't ask any further, "Second brother, you should head home quickly. Since this kid is probably going back soon too!"

"Ah, right, right!" Lao Er Li was reminded and quickly replied, "I'll leave now. You should pay more attention to Mr. Tang's side."

"Understood, let me know how it goes later. Don't forget to keep me updated, second brother."

"Got it."

The two brothers parted ways just like that.

Li Laer hurried back to Suijin Beach, but he couldn't find Mu Xu anywhere.
