Beauty and the Bodyguard

Getting Worse and Worse

“Sure, but I have to tell you the theory behind this problem.” Yaowang continued. “Have you heard of pure qi? In this world, other than us commoners, there are still practitioners that could use pure qi!”.

“Certainly, I’ve heard of them before. House Zhen has a relative. He’s a mystic class master…” Zhen Dazhou nodded but he spoke mostly bullshit. The mystic class master was no relative of them but a master who they hired to fight their enemy- they were just benefits based relationship.

“Ugh, things will be easier for me to explain now since you’ve heard of it before!” Yaowang continued. “Your son’s meridian acupoints are blocked by Lin Yi’s pure qi, creating a blockage which is causing the current illness. It might look like the sequella of stroke but it’s nothing like that. This is more complicated than a stroke!”

“I see, that’s it!” Zhen Dazhou got even worried after listening to Yaowang’s explanation. “So how should we deal with this?”

“I can only use acupuncture and my pure qi to neutralize it slowly! However, this will exhaust a lot of my power and this can’t be cured just in a day or a night so the process is rather complicated!” Yaowang sighed. “Honestly speaking, this patience is not good news!”

“Yaowang, you have to save my son. What can Yingjun do if you refuse to save him, Yaowang? Although a twisted mouth and a crippled leg wouldn’t affect his life, he would become a joke of the century!” Zhen Dazhou panicked. “We can discuss the fee, no problem! Just please save my son okay?”

“Since I’ve some grudges against Lin Yi and your son is my first patient, I’ll take up this difficult job and treat him!” Yaowang continued. “But I’ve to be honest with you, I’m not doing this for charity and my fee isn’t cheap so let’s set the price as one million per visit!”

“Sure sure!” Zhen Dazhou nodded violently the moment he heard one time for one million. It wasn’t that much either. Others couldn’t even get his son back to normal with ten million so he was fine with the fee.

“Great, since you have agreed to the terms. Shall we start with shifting the energy to another part of the body first today? Maybe from the leg to the hand and from the mouth to the ear? Getting a twisted ear and crippled hand wouldn’t look bad on the surface. His appearance will be the same as a normal person! As for the energy in the ear and hand, I’ll slowly neutralize them after that.” Yaowang concluded.

“Okay, that’s the best option!” Zhen Dazhou heard that Yaowang was able to shift the energy and after shifting the energy, his son wouldn’t look ugly anymore- he would look like a normal person! He was satisfied as long as his son could return to his normal appearance but as for the ear and hand, it was just a matter of time since Yaowang promised that he could recover them slowly.

“Sure! Now that you approve my decision, let’s get things started!” Yaowang nodded, took out his needles, and was ready for treatment.

In fact, Lin Yi was just trying to give him some insignificant small punishment. He wasn’t trying to create some incurable disease or whatnot to torture Zhen Yingjun so Yaowang solved the puzzle without a sweat. The so-called “shifting” Yaowang mentioned earlier was just treating Zhen Yingjun’s mouth and leg then using the same method to block the acupoints of his ear and hand!

It might look like shifting but it was just another opportunity for him to rob the Zhens’ money! Otherwise, they could only earn one million out from it- it was too small for them! Yaowang had already had a target in mind; he would at least suck ten million out from Zhen Yingjun’s body.

Soon, Zhen Yingjun’s twisted mouth and crippled leg were back to normal but one of his ears became deaf and one of the hands became senseless!

However, all these defects were implicit- it was not exposed on the surface so it was natural for Zhen Yingjun and Zhen Dazhou to be extremely grateful to Yaowang. After paying the fee, they booked the next visit and left with satisfaction.

Seeing the Zhen father and son left, Zhao Qibing’s lip starting to curve into a smirk, a cold smile could be seen. “Two idiots, giving us money for free!”

“Master Bing, I’ve decided to at least get ten million out from them. What do you think?” Yaowang told Zhao Qibing about his plan.

“Ten million? That little?” Zhao Qibing furrowed his eyebrows. “I heard that this Zhen Dazhou is filthy rich! His business is worth over a hundred million. We should at least get half of it, right? Make it fifty million!”

“Sh…” Yaowang sucked in a breath of cold air, his heart jumped a skip. Master Bing was indeed a merciless man! He was even more merciless than him by a lot- he thought that ten million was already a lot formally but little did he know that Master Bing would call out fifty million on the first call. However, Yaowang couldn’t understand no matter how much he wrecked his head, with this small tiny illness, how could it be worth fifty million? No longer able to hold back his question, he asked, “Master Bing, one million per visit, ten visits is like ten million, isn’t that enough?”

“Are you dumb?” Zhao Qibing glared at Yaowang like he was a complete idiot. “When you treat him, can’t you just create more problems for him? This is not a hard task for you, is it? Should I really be teaching you such a simple thing? Just look at the face of Zhen Yingjun, he is obviously an incorrigible drunkard and lecher. Just make him unable to get erect. I don’t believe he won’t come back for you! If you are afraid that he will suspect you, then just make it on Zhen Dazhou, let the old fart have sexual dysfunction!”

“I got it, Master Bing!” A sudden flash of insight and all was clear. Yaowang was a money-minded doctor but he realized that Master Bing was more avaricious than him by far! He was just too corrupted from the inside!

Everyone in Songshan city had heard the news of Zhen Yingjun’s illness. The Zhen father and son made quite a big scene in the society and Zhen Dazhou’s inquiry for the miracle doctor to treat his son was no secret as well! However, the fact that a mysterious title, “Medicine King Zhao”, came out of nowhere and suddenly treated Zhen Yingjun’s illness completely shocked everyone tremendously!

Back in those days in Songshan city, when someone mentioned miracle doctor, everyone would remember the name of Guan Xuemin but today, a Medicine King Zhao came out of the blue and it seemed like he was slightly stronger than Guan Xuemin. Because everyone had seen or heard of Zhen Yingjun’s severe condition, twisted mouth, and crippled leg, they had even visited the doctors but all of them were helpless but with just a few needles, Yaowang created a miracle!

Zhen Yingjun’s leg was not crippled anymore and his mouth was not twisted, either! Of course, they didn’t know about the deaf ear and senseless hand. Zhen Dazhou refused to reveal the bad news to the public, so he only mentioned that his son had recovered! Thus, they became the best advertisement for Medicine King Zhao! In just a moment, everyone knew about the existence of Medicine King Zhao and learned that he had superior medical prowess even far superior to Miracle Doctor Guan himself. Hence, Medicine King Zhao’s reputation skyrocketed throughout society.

In the future, if those rich people with powerful status wanted medical consultation, what came first would be Medicine King Zhao instead of Miracle Doctor Guan now. After all, Yaowang really treated someone and Zhen Yingjun was really jumping around lively now….

Lin Yi heard the news from Fatty Lai and Guan Xuemin but he didn’t really care if Zhao Qibing wanted to earn money through this method- it had nothing to do with him. As for Zhen Yingjun’s recovery, Lin Yi didn’t really mind, either. He was just trying to teach Zhen Yingjun a lesson, to begin with, not trying to kill him. So even if his illness was cured, it was cured. Nothing really mattered to him.
