Chapter 18: Chapter 18: For the sake of the country and family, not a single cent shall be taken from those who stand to benefit!

"Swoosh!"

After Lin Fan spoke, everyone’s gaze suddenly converged on his face.

However.

Lin Fan stood unwaveringly, as if he had not seen the gazes of the crowd at all, standing there fearlessly like a tenacious pine tree!

"Boy, what did you say? I am a quack!"

Even with Divine Doctor Chen’s good self-control,

Being called a quack by a seventeen or eighteen-year-old youth in front of everyone, he couldn’t stay calm!

"Indeed! You are a quack! Anyone with a slight knowledge of medical skills knows that everything you just said is complete nonsense!" Lin Fan acknowledged with a nod.

"This—!"

Some people didn’t catch Lin Fan’s words clearly because they were so abrupt.

Now that they heard Lin Fan say it again, they were all stunned!

Who in the crowd didn’t know that Divine Doctor Chen’s medical skill was like that of a god?

Yet this young man was publicly calling Divine Doctor Chen a quack?

Divine Doctor Chen sneered, a flash of coldness in his eyes, landing on Lin Fan, sharpness fully revealed!

"Understand medical skills? Haha, you understand medical skills?"

Divine Doctor Chen took a step forward and emerged from the crowd, scoffing at Lin Fan as he said:

"Do you understand the ’Inner Canon of Huangdi’?"

"Do you know ’Treatise on Febrile and Miscellaneous Diseases’?"

"Have you heard of ’Shennong’s Materia Medica’? How many Chapters have you read? What do you know about it?"

"Are you acquainted with ’Nan Jing’?"

"Have you thoroughly studied ’Compendium of Materia Medica’? Do you know the medicinal materials, their properties? Under what circumstances do you use which medicinal materials?"

With each sentence he spoke, the elder took a step toward Lin Fan.

By the time he finished speaking, he had already positioned himself at the center of the crowd, looking down on everyone.

Proudly overlooking Lin Fan!

In the old man’s view, Lin Fan was just an ordinary young man.

Even if he had some understanding of Traditional Chinese Medicine, it was merely limited to the internet.

Dare to think he understood Chinese medicine just by reading a few online posts?

What a joke!

"Inspection, listening, questioning, pulse-taking - which of these can you do? You know nothing about Chinese medicine, yet you dare to spout such nonsense here, it’s a huge joke! Do you really think that by reading a few posts on the internet and knowing a few prescriptions, you understand Chinese medicine?"

Divine Doctor Chen scoffed repeatedly, a strong disdain emerging at the corner of his mouth!

"Yes, these young people are so full of themselves, thinking they know everything when in fact, they know nothing!"

Many people nodded in agreement.

"Sigh! The internet misleads people. These young folks nowadays even dare to question Divine Doctor Chen, showing no respect at all!" an elderly man sighed, unable to stop shaking his head.

"Exactly! The depth of Divine Doctor Chen’s understanding of Chinese medicine philosophy is not something you can comprehend?"

"Young man, won’t you hurry up and apologize?!"

Several patients inside the clinic all looked angry, staring at Lin Fan as they scolded.

With the support of the crowd, Divine Doctor Chen prepared to follow up on the victory!

"Hmph! You say my words are nonsense, so tell me, where did I go wrong?"

Divine Doctor Chen snorted.

He slightly raised his proud head, looking at the position of the ceiling, showing disdain for Lin Fan!

"Fire Gun and Iron Cloud are dry in nature, and if you give them to people suffering from insomnia, they will probably end up sleeping even less!" Lin Fan said indifferently.

"Hmph! Although Fire Gun and Iron Cloud are dry in nature, as long as you place them under Master Zheng’s belly when he dozes at noon, he won’t feel sleepy in the afternoon!" Divine Doctor Chen snorted coldly again.

"Good!"

Lin Fan nodded slightly and continued, "Then I ask you! Pijizi and Hongjingtian can unblock and soften blood vessels, but Master Zheng’s body is already old and his blood vessels have aged. If you continue to soften the blood vessels, there’s a risk of them bursting. The nature of your prescribed medicine is too aggressive, and with hundred-year-old wild ginseng, it will make the qi and blood in the body even more vigorous!"

"In the ’Inner Canon of Huangdi’ · Suwen Chapter, there is a record of this. I prescribed medicines according to ancient books, what’s wrong with that?" Divine Doctor Chen said half-smilingly, looking at Lin Fan.

His prescriptions were all derived from ancient books.

There could not possibly be a mistake!

"If Master Zheng were a young man, your prescription wouldn’t be a problem! But Master Zheng is old, and according to your prescription, within three days, he is bound to suffer a cerebral hemorrhage!"

"Are you trying to save people, or harm them? Do you still think there’s nothing wrong with it?" After finishing his words, Lin Fan looked at Divine Doctor Chen with a cold expression.

Then, everyone noticed for the first time, that Divine Doctor Chen’s forehead was already covered with sweat!

’Could it be... Divine Doctor Chen really made a mistake? Is what this young man saying true?’ Some patients thought to themselves, starting to believe in Lin Fan!

"This... this..."

Divine Doctor Chen opened his mouth, his eyes darting around.

He had just realized that he had indeed overlooked such a significant detail.

It was too fatal!

But.

If he admitted it on the spot, he feared his Divine Doctor reputation would be shattered!

Thereupon, he was prepared to stick to his guns to the end.

After all, he was the Divine Doctor, and the other was just a wet-behind-the-ears youngster, he couldn’t help but say angrily:

"Nonsense! What evidence do you have to prove this? Could you even possibly cure Old Zheng’s illness?"

"Why not?"

Lin Fan chuckled lightly, walked straight out of the crowd, and came to Zheng Jiuchang’s side!

"Old Master Zheng, if you trust me, I can give your illness a try!"

"You can cure it?"

A look of surprise flashed across Zheng Jiuchang’s aged face.

However, based on his many years of experience in reading people, it seemed that Lin Fan was not lying!

"Indeed!" Lin Fan nodded slightly.

"How will you treat it?" Zheng Jiuchang asked suspiciously.

"Just by applying needles, regulating Qi, promoting blood circulation, and smoothing the meridians," Lin Fan explained nonchalantly.

In his view, Zheng Jiuchang’s illness was not really an illness; it was just a trifling matter.

Moreover, Zheng Jiuchang had made no small contribution to the repatriation of Huaxia’s cultural relics.

He was willing to lend a hand and save the other party once!

"Alright, I believe you!"

Upon seeing Lin Fan’s confidence, Zheng Jiuchang couldn’t help but partially believe him.

"Grandfather, are you really going to..."

Zheng Jiuchang’s granddaughter began, her voice laced with concern.

"Let him try!" Zheng Jiuchang gently shook his head, stopping his granddaughter from continuing.

Lin Fan took out a packet of silver needles.

He selected a dozen or so needles and casually placed them on the acupuncture points on Zheng Jiuchang’s body.

Then he raised a hand and injected a burst of Inner Strength, navigating through Zheng Jiuchang’s meridians!

Three minutes later.

Suddenly.

"Pfft!"

Zheng Jiuchang opened his mouth and violently spewed out a mouthful of black blood, shocking to all!

"What’s happening?"

Everyone was startled!

"Young man, are you trying to kill or save him?" Divine Doctor Chen couldn’t help but sneer.

"Grandfather!"

"Old Master!"

Zheng Jiuchang’s granddaughter and the bodyguards who had accompanied him changed color immediately and were about to rush forward to seize Lin Fan!

"Stop!"

Unexpectedly, Zheng Jiuchang spoke up, halting everyone; his voice had transformed from its initial weakness to a robust and Qi-filled tone!

"Hahaha! Comfortable! So comfortable!"

Zheng Jiuchang stood up straight, moved his muscles a bit, and looked at Lin Fan with a mix of surprise and joy!

After spitting out a mouthful of black blood, his body felt unprecedentedly light.

Even his somewhat pale complexion had become rosy and radiant.

His limbs, which were not very agile, could now move with ease as if he had returned to his state in his thirties or forties.

All these changes left Zheng Jiuchang both shocked and overjoyed; it was truly miraculous!

"Young friend, you have cured the ailment that has troubled me for many years in just a few moves. Name your price! Do you want money, a villa, or luxury cars? If you fancy antiques, there is also some in my warehouse, free for you to choose!" Zheng Jiuchang immediately made a generous promise.

Unexpectedly, Lin Fan shook his head lightly:

"If it benefits the country and the family, I’ll not take a penny!"

"If it disadvantages the country and the family, I’ll not cure for all the gold in the world!"

Having said this.

In the astonished eyes of the crowd, Lin Fan did not stay for a moment longer, turned around, and left.

Disappearing at the entrance of Chen’s Clinic!

"Divine Doctor! This is the true Divine Doctor!"

Zheng Jiuchang stared blankly at Lin Fan’s departing figure, his gaze filled with admiration.

Hearing these words, Divine Doctor Chen stood rooted to the spot, his old face burning with pain!

"Immediately investigate for me, even if it means turning Jiangnan upside down, I must find out the whereabouts of this benefactor!"

Zheng Jiuchang ordered solemnly!
