Chapter 36: Treatment (Seeking Recommendations)

  "It can still be cured!" Under the hopeless atmosphere of several people, Wu Rui's words were astonishing!

  ...... The surroundings fell silent at the sound.

  "Can be cured? Haha, I knew you could cure it!" Xu Manli couldn't help but exclaim first. To think that her pressure was not small just now, and now hearing Wu Rui say that she can be cured, how can she not be happy? If the occasion wasn't wrong, Miss Xu almost couldn't bear to rush into Wu Rui's arms to celebrate!

  "Can you cure it? Can you really cure it?" Li Jiao finally couldn't help but turn her head and ask with a mixture of doubt and hope.

  "You... you..." Li Qiang was initially excited, but quickly calmed down. His eyes, shining with intensity, stared straight at Wu Rui and said: "For the sake of Miss Xu's reputation, I will let bygones be bygones for past events. However, if you dare to deceive us, even if I don't throw you into the Goose River, I will still put you in prison with those few divine doctors!"

  Wu Rui's eyebrows rose, and his voice also cooled down: "Li Qiang, stop putting on that airs of being the richest man in E City. Whether I can cure it or not will be known after trying. Before that, I won't ask for your money or goods. What are you worried about? According to what you said, if I couldn't treat your grandson and he was killed or imprisoned, would that be humanly justifiable or lawful? With such a way of doing things, it's no wonder people say your grandson was poisoned!"

  " You...... " Li Qiang obviously didn't expect Wu Rui to retort, and for a moment he was both ashamed and angry. But when he heard the next sentence from Wu Rui, Li Qiang couldn't help but exclaim in surprise: "What did you say? Are you saying that Xiao Jian was harmed by someone?"

  Li Jiao and Xu Nuang beside her were also shocked, Wu Rui's words had been guessed by them before, after all, a child who was heavily guarded suddenly becoming brain dead was indeed strange, but the subsequent investigation did not find any evidence in this regard, gradually everyone forgot about it, unexpectedly now this question was raised again by Wu Rui.

  "Hmph!" Wu Rui let out a cold snort and didn't respond, as Li Qiang had been putting on airs in front of him, repeatedly provoking his bottom line, which made Wu Rui furious. If he hadn't known that the child was innocent, he would have turned around and left long ago. Why bother to be looked down upon by others again and again?

  As Wu Rui let out a cold hum, Li Qiang also gradually regained his composure. His face was gloomy and uncertain as he stared at Wu Rui for a while before asking in a low voice: "How...how did you know my grandson was harmed by someone? What did you discover? If what you said is true, I, Li Qiang, will apologize to you."

  This time Li Qiang's attitude was much better, perhaps because he was intimidated by Wu Rui's overbearing manner.

  Wu Rui didn't put on airs, gazing at the child's head and saying: "The child's brain has been tampered with, a dead energy is lurking inside, this dead energy is the culprit behind the child's cerebral palsy."

  "What's wrong?" Several people looked at each other in confusion.

  Li Qiang also furrowed his brow, unclear and asked: "What kind of existence is this yin energy? How can it be in my grandson's mind?"

  "Dead energy... This dead energy is a kind of internal force, with an evil attribute. It's the energy that evil cultivators cultivate from piles of corpses. As for how it ended up in your grandson's brain, I think you should ask yourselves that question. What kind of hatred could drive someone to be so cruel and insane?" By the end, Wu Rui's tone had become somewhat mocking, clearly implying that the child's affliction was a result of the adults' own hatred.

  "Internal force?" Li Jiao and Xu Manli looked at each other in dismay, casting questioning glances at Wu Rui. Especially Xu Manli, her eyes were about to pop out - where was the divine doctor, this guy was simply a charlatan! Who did he think he could deceive, why did he have to deceive Li Qiang?

  Xu's face turned green! This is not only a betrayal of her trust, but also pushing her into the fire pit!

  "Evil inner strength......" Unexpectedly, Li Qiang did not question Wu Rui, but instead looked shocked and puzzled.

  Compared to Li Jiao and Xu Niang, Li Qiang has more experience and knows some secrets that others don't. He happens to know that there is a kind of superpower holder in the world, who is said to have extraordinary abilities beyond ordinary people, and can also use some mysterious methods... But what puzzles Li Qiang is that he hasn't offended these people at all!

  Seeing her father's drastic change in expression, Li Jiao couldn't help but ask nervously: "Dad, what do you know?"

  “……” Li Qiang ignored his daughter's question, and after being woken up, he turned to Wu Rui and swallowed hard, asking: "Doctor, how did you know that my grandson has a dead energy in his brain? Is it... is it that you are also...”

  "I am a doctor!" Wu Rui's response was moderate and reserved. He knew what Li Qiang wanted to ask, but neither admitted nor denied it.

  "Genius of the divine stick! Great king of nonsense!" Seeing Wu Rui making Li Qiang stunned, Xu Niang's heart kept scolding and mocking. As a modern woman and an absolute atheist, Xu Niang believed that traditional Chinese medicine was very difficult to understand, so she naturally wouldn't believe such absurd statements.

  Inner strength? Others have magic and immortal arts!

  Wu Rui's attitude was not very cooperative, but this attitude made Lei Qiang even more convinced. After all, that non-human being wasn't extremely arrogant? Although he couldn't confirm it, Lei Qiang still deeply bowed to Wu Rui and apologized sincerely: "Sorry, I had a bad attitude just now, please forgive me, Godly Doctor."

  Li Qiang is indeed a businessman, able to advance and retreat, apologizing without blushing.

  "Whatever!" Wu Rui waved his hand expressionlessly, indicating that he didn't care.

  "What a master of pretending to be awesome!" Xu Xiuzhu lamented in her heart.

  "Dr. Wu, please treat my Xiaojian, he's innocent, you must help him!" Next to her, Li Jiao finally knelt down with a thud, her knees hitting the floor loudly, but she didn't notice the pain, and instead begged Dr. Wu for help.

  "Miss Li, please get up quickly!" Wu Rui hurriedly helped her up and saw that she was still looking at him with a pleading expression. He couldn't help but say, "Don't worry, I'm a doctor, of course, I will do my best to treat the patient!"

  "Thank you, thank you, Doctor Wu!" Li Jiao bowed repeatedly in gratitude, with tears of extreme joy streaming down the corners of her eyes.

  Let Li Jiao take off all the clothes on the child's body, and Wu Rui took out the Shennong Nine Needles, which flowed into the child's body like water. Before treating the brain, Wu Rui also needed to make a overall recovery of the child's body. After being paralyzed for two years, the child's illness was not only in the brain, but also had many minor illnesses all over the body. Since he wanted to cure it, Wu Rui naturally cured all the minor illnesses in his body with ease.

  Witnessing Wu Rui's swift and mysterious needlework, several people beside him were shocked. When they saw the pale color on the child's body gradually fade away, replaced by a rosy glow, Lei's father and daughter couldn't help but well up with tears in their eyes.

  Two years had passed and they finally waited for hope.

  Half a moment later, the child on the bed had returned to normal skin color and looked like a healthy child, but he was still unconscious. Wu Rui didn't feel as happy as the Lei family father and daughter because he knew that all of this was just superficial phenomena. The dead energy in the child's brain hadn't been eliminated yet, and all the superficial phenomena were just fleeting clouds.

  Withdraw all the Shennong Nine Needles from the child's body, Wu Rui's expression turned solemn, and he swiftly inserted the first needle into the Taiyin acupoint on the child's forehead, deeply penetrating it until it reached the brain.

  Li Jiao and Xu Nu were shocked, covering their mouths to prevent themselves from crying out in surprise. Such a long silver needle had actually penetrated deep into the brain, making one's heart tremble with fear.

  Not to mention them, even the experienced Li Qiang was startled, this acupoint is originally very sensitive, and Wu Rui's deep insertion is frightening to hear, making his eyelids twitch, but he didn't dare make a sound to disturb him, fearing that one misstep would cause trouble.

  "Quickly open the doors and windows of the room!" Wu Rui suddenly ordered without lifting his head.

  "Ah......Oh, okay, hurry up and open the doors and windows!" Li Qiang led the two women to open the doors and windows in a flurry, although he didn't understand what was going on.

  "Hiss……" A black aura flowed out of the child's brain along with the silver needle, and before Xu Niang and the others could feel shocked, they quickly smelled a foul odor that made them hurriedly cover their noses, almost vomiting.

  If it weren't for fear of being rude, Miss Xu would have rushed out the door immediately. Instead, she saw that Wu Rui, who was closest to her, remained expressionless. At this moment, she felt shocked and deeply convinced of Wu Rui's medical skills. At the same time, she secretly felt proud of her own wisdom for being able to sign such a perfect doctor with both excellent medical skills and ethics. Miss Xu was overjoyed!

  As for Li's father and daughter, they were so moved that they almost cried out loud, thinking to themselves that this is what a doctor should be like!

  They actually knew that it wasn't because Wu Rui had a strong sense of smell, but rather they had blocked their noses early on and couldn't smell the stench anymore, so naturally they were unmoved.

  Expelling the dead energy was not the final step in treatment, and afterwards Wu Rui inserted the remaining eight silver needles into various acupoints on the patient's brain, beginning the final stage of restorative treatment. The brain had been gnawed by the dead energy for two years, and was already severely damaged; merely expelling the dead energy could only give him a few more years of life at most, which was not the result Wu Rui wanted.

  The treatment lasted for half an hour before Wu Rui finally pulled out the Shennong Nine Needles and put them away.

  "...Dr. Wu, is my son's illness cured?" Li Jiao asked cautiously.

  The two people beside him were also staring at Wu Rui with eager eyes, waiting for his final answer.

  "Don't worry! The child has recovered, but his body is still a bit weak. After waking up, push him outside to get some sunlight and have him take some Chinese herbal medicine in small doses to regulate his body. I believe he'll fully recover soon. However, since the child is too young and can't speak or walk yet, remember to educate him properly after he wakes up, otherwise it might lead to him becoming intellectually disabled." Wu Rui patiently advised.

  "Yes, yes, we must remember what the divine doctor said!" Li Qiang and Li Jiao next to him nodded repeatedly.

  Instructed to let Lijiao take care of the child, Wu Rui and Xu Niang returned to the first floor hall under Li Qiang's respectful leadership. Compared with the previous questioning, this time Li Qiang personally put on a top-grade red robe for the two, showing respect and enthusiasm, which made the eyes of the bodyguards and nannies in the villa shine brightly.

  P.S. Some brothers in the book review section pointed out that the widow plot is vulgar, but this courier has a different view. The widows are not as dirty as imagined, they are also normal women, and everyone should not look at them with colored glasses.

  Of course, this doesn't mean I'm going to make Yang Xiang the female lead, the final outcome is still up for debate, but what's certain is that there won't be any heavy or explicit content in the clinic's storyline. Actually, the author's taste is quite fresh...
