Chapter 1705: Old and Foolish

those clueless fellows a good thrashing. They're really something else!”The moment he arrived, this old man showered him with praise. Ye Bufan had a bad feeling about it; there's no such thing as a f...Ma Fu's face darkened: "Little girl, are you serious about having a common worker compare himself to me"

Ye Bufan gave him a playful smile: "Old man, you just said that anyone from Taiping Medical Hall would do. Aren't you afraid now"

"Haha, am I afraid of you" Ma Fu laughed arrogantly again. "This is good too, when it gets spread in the future, that Taiping Medicine Hall was defeated by me, even the little errand boys came up to compete."

"Savor your laughter now, because you might not be able to later."

Ye Bufan walked up to a wooden puppet and examined it carefully. He noticed that the red liquid which had seeped out earlier had slowly disappeared after a few minutes, returning to its original color.

I can't help but secretly admire, this thing is also quite ingenious, it can be used repeatedly.

Ma Fubi scoffed and said, "What are you looking at You don't even know how to use a wooden puppet, do you"

Ye Bufan honestly said: "You're right, this is the first time I've used it."

"Cut the crap, I don't have time to waste with you. Let's get started."

Ma Fu thought it was a waste of time on this young man. After taking out the silver needle, the competition officially began.

He was already moving with incredible speed, his attack aimed at the wooden puppet. Meanwhile, Ye Bufan was still observing him with interest.

"What is this guy doing Is he stupid"

Chu Yun's eyes overflowed with utter disdain.

Su Caiwei also felt a pang of disappointment in her heart. The glimmer of hope she had for this man, however inexplicable, had vanished completely.

The horse next to him, Zhiqiang Ma, shouted, "Can you still compare"

Ye Bufan chuckled: "Don't worry, your father is old and foolish. It's only right for me to give him a break."

Ma Fu heard this and his wrist twitched, almost stabbing the silver needle off course. When did he become so old and clumsy

At this moment, he had almost finished acupuncture on about one-third of the acupoints, roughly 100 of them.

And just then, Ye Bufan moved. With a flick of his wrist, two three-inch long arrays appeared in each of his hands, which he then shot towards the wooden puppet before him.

The moment he made his move, the disdain in everyone's eyes vanished instantly. The speed was simply too fast, so fast that it was dizzying.

Ma Fu, who was originally beside him, was also extremely fast, but compared to Ye Bufan, he was like slow motion.

The entire audience was shocked, especially those from Qingde Medical Hall. No one had expected this errand boy to be such a skilled fighter.

Even if Su Caiwei and Chu Yun from before worked together, they wouldn't be half as fast as him.

Chu Yun was even more surprised, his mouth agape. He had always looked down on Ye Bufan, but he never expected him to be a master hidden in plain sight.

Even Su Dingfang, who was spiritually downcast, had a strange gleam in his eyes. He had been completely desperate, thinking that the clinic left by his master would be ruined today, but he didn't expect this new young lad to be so capable.

Just as everyone was stunned for a moment, Ye Bufan had already pierced all 354 acupuncture points of the wooden puppet.

Then he flipped his hands, put the silver needles away, and clapped his hands, looking at Ma Fu beside him.

"Finish work, old man. You can slowly stab yourself."

"Uh..."

Ma Fu was completely focused on dealing with the wooden puppet in front of him, he didn't even realize what happened beside him, let alone that Ye Bufan had already finished his attack in just a short while. He hadn't even made a move just now.

And at this very moment, the wooden puppet in front of him had just pierced two-thirds of the acupoints, with over a hundred remaining to be pierced.

"Boy, are you making a fool of old man"

He stopped the silver needles in his hand, his face full of anger.

In his eyes, this young man in front of him was nothing at all, just playing with him.

Ye Bufan waved his hand: "Don't make jokes, go see for yourself."

As soon as his voice fell, not only Ma Fu, but everyone present crowded around like that wooden puppet.

Although they saw it with their own eyes, they couldn't believe what had just happened, thinking that the young man was just making a random stab at it.

Ma Zhiqiang glared fiercely at Ye Bufan: "Boy, let me tell you, this wooden puppet is not used casually. As long as one acupuncture point is wrong, you lose."

He wasn't just rambling. A wooden puppet is like a patient, and if you hit the wrong acupuncture point, it could easily be fatal.

Therefore, in acupuncture with wooden puppets, accuracy is far more important than speed. No matter how fast you are, if you hit the wrong acupoint, you lose.

Everyone understood this point and looked towards the puppet together, especially those from the Qingsu Medical Hall who scrutinized it more carefully.

As time passed, the astonishment on everyone's faces grew more intense. They examined the wooden puppet from head to toe, checking every one of its 354 acupuncture points, but found none amiss.

"This..."

All present were astonished beyond measure, no one had expected this young man to not only be fast but also have such precise technique, without the slightest deviation.

Especially those at the Qingshi Medical Hall, they simply couldn't accept this reality.

The smug look on Ma Fu's face vanished, replaced by a grim expression so severe it seemed as if water would drip from it. He never expected to lose the match, and even worse, to be defeated by a lowly kitchen hand.

"What's wrong Why are you all looking at me like that Did I get too handsome"

Ye Bufan looked at the crowd with a playful smile, "Watch carefully Who won this match"

"This..."

Ma Fu, though thick-skinned, had the evidence right before him. He couldn't shirk his responsibility, so he gritted his teeth and said, "I concede this second round to your Tai Ping Medical Hall."

Upon hearing this result, both Su's father and daughter's faces lit up with ecstasy. They had both been prepared to concede defeat, but they never expected a miraculous turn of events. To their surprise, Ye Bufan managed to turn the tables.

Ye Bufan said unhappily, "Old man, can you be serious What do you mean by saying we won If you don't accept it, let's have another match."

Ma Fu let out a cold snort. The gap just now was simply too large. Not to mention playing another round, even if they played ten more rounds, he had no hope of winning back.

"Kid, what are you bragging about Even if you win the second round, it's just a tie. You still have to face the third round. I don't believe you can win that."

Ye Bufan chuckled: "Don't believe me Let's compare and see."

Ma Fu looked at Su Dingfang: “Since it’s a tie, then we'll have a third match. Who will you send out”

Without waiting for anyone else to speak, Ye Bufan jumped in and said: "Of course it's me. Seeing that you weren't convinced just now, I specialize in curing people who are disobedient."

Ma Fu said in a gloomy voice: "Boy, although your moves are fast, it doesn't mean your medical skills are high. Compared to this old man, your medical skills are still far behind."

Ye Bufan shook his head: "Old man, you talk too much. Just say it, how are we going to compare in the third round"

"It's just like a doctor treating a patient," Ma Fu's gaze fell on Su Dingfang, "To prevent you from saying I'm cheating, let's use my younger brother as the patient and see who can cure his illness." He also added an extra layer of protection around it."You..."Zhao Mingzhen was immediately furious, his eyes blazing with anger. He had been toiling away, painstakingly collecting herbs, while this f...
