Chapter 273: 273 Teach you how to behave (first update)
Li Mi spoke these words slowly and articulately, at an even pace.
A faint smile remained on her face.
It was gentle, yet laced with a hint of irony.
Having studied medicine for decades, she was certain she couldn’t have been mistaken—this wild girl had just targeted Wen Ziyao’s Baihui Point.
And the Baihui Point was exactly one of the thirty-six fatal points.
Li Mi narrowed her eyes and looked at Chu Jin, continuing, "I already told you, Master Chu, don’t pretend to understand what you don’t. You could kill someone like this, do you know that? And, have those iron needles been sterilized? Do you know how many bacteria those iron needles carry? Yaoyao’s constitution is particularly weak right now..."
"Miss Li studied Western medicine, right?" Chu Jin’s lips curved slightly as she looked at Li Mi, her clear eyes shimmering with reflected light from the cold lamps, her dark pupils as pure and bright as moonlight, flawless.
The eyes of everyone in the room were almost entirely focused on the two of them.
Shen Suhua tried several times to say something but swallowed her words each time.
The Wen Family and the Li family were long-time friends, and with Song Shiqin present, she couldn’t allow Li Mi to lose face.
Moreover, Li Mi was doing this for Wen Ziyao’s sake.
If she spoke out in support of Chu Jin at a time like this, it would seem overly hurtful.
During this time, Zhang Zijun’s phone rang.
He carefully pressed the mute button and tiptoed outside to the corridor to answer the call.
Li Mi didn’t expect Chu Jin to suddenly ask such a question and replied subconsciously, "Yes, I have studied Western medicine. I specialized abroad for ten years, graduated from the Princeton University Medical Department, and was taken as a close disciple by the internationally renowned medical expert, Abbott. May I ask who was your master, Master Chu?" Her mouth twisted into a sardonic curve as she spoke the last sentence.
She was a graduate of a prestigious school, who had renowned teachers—how could she be compared with a quack who only knew how to bluff and deceive?
Didn’t she know there was a whole galaxy of difference between them?
If this were any other time, she wouldn’t deign to speak another word to such a wild girl!
The kind of people you surround yourself with reflects who you are.
Talking to a wild girl with unknown origins would only lower her own status.
She couldn’t understand what Song Shiqin was thinking, associating with such a person!
Wasn’t he afraid of degrading his own level?
Chu Jin’s eyelashes trembled lightly as she chuckled, then said, "So Miss Li studied Western medicine. No wonder you’ve completely forgotten about the heritage of our ancestors from the China mainland. It’s true that the spot I targeted with the needle is a fatal point, but aren’t life and death about the interchanging of yin and yang? Miss Li, I wonder if your teacher Abbott has ever taught you about what the Yin and Yang Nine Needles are? What about Renewal of Dead Bones?"
Her voice was neither loud nor soft, but just loud enough to be heard clearly.
Her clear voice rang in their ears, like a refreshing breeze after rain, lingering around their hearts, difficult to dissipate.
By sound—one recognizes a beauty.
As a highly qualified doctor, Li Mi had never been questioned like this; her almond-shaped eyes widened in shock, and her elegant brows knitted together. "Nonsense! What Yin and Yang Nine Needles, what Renewal of Dead Bones? These are just your wild imaginations! I advise you, young lady, to be more down-to-earth and stop daydreaming. When it comes to medical skills, Western medicine is more advanced and developed. People like you will never understand the intricacies of Western culture. You spend all day defending outdated beliefs, spouting flowery talk, deceiving and swindling..."
Traditional Chinese medicine is the traditional medicine of Hua Nation; it has thousands of years of history from its origin to its maturity. Ancient great doctors like Hua Tuo, Li Shizhen, and the renowned "Medicine King" Sun Simiao have left medical classics that have benefited countless generations.
Of course, it’s not to say that Western medicine doesn’t have its nuances, but Li Mi’s thinking is too extreme. Merely after ten years abroad, she has already forgotten her roots.
Worshiping everything foreign.
After living abroad for ten years, she had been thoroughly brainwashed by Western culture.
Everything in Hua Nation was corrupt to her, and even the air in the West was deemed sweet.
Simply from her phrase ’defending outdated beliefs,’ one could judge what kind of person she was.
Chu Jin narrowed her eyes slightly, leisurely taking out a Golden Needle from her acupuncture bag. The gleaming needle against her fair, delicate fingers seemed translucent as jade, her skin as white as the stem of a scallion.
The golden light reflected in her pitch-black pupils, a flash of cold light emanating from within, interwoven with the golden glow, making it hard for onlookers to maintain eye contact.
Li Mi was still rambling on—talking about how Western medicine was the moon in the sky, all good, and how Chinese medicine was like dog excrement on the ground, to be discarded by everyone.
The more Li Mi spoke, the worse her words sounded in Chu Jin’s ears. With a slight frown, Chu Jin looked up at the incessantly talking Li Mi and a mischievous arc spread across her lips.
This Li Mi was too noisy!
And way too arrogant, really thinking that a few years of Western education meant she could abandon her ancestors?
Under the lamplight, those smiling peach blossom eyes glinted with a piercing cold light.
Song Shiqin’s eyes narrowed, and his brow ’thudded’ twice.
’Whoosh—’ in an instant.
Her body almost turned into an afterimage with the swiftness of lightning.
The next second, she appeared beside Li Mi.
"Guarding something so decayed like you..." Li Mi only felt a prick on her neck, and the words she had been saying were cut off halfway, stuck in her throat as if someone had seized it, preventing even half a syllable from coming out. Her face turned red with urgency, sweat beading on her nose almost instantly.
How could she suddenly become unable to speak?
A sense of fear spread throughout her body.
The world finally went quiet.
Chu Jin withdrew the Golden Needle with satisfaction and looked at Li Mi with a smile, "Miss Li, has anyone ever told you that you’re noisier than five hundred ducks?"
It must be her!
She must have done something to me!
Li Mi immediately glared at Chu Jin with fierce eyes, her mouth opening and closing, but she couldn’t make a sound.
It was as if her vocal cords had vanished all of a sudden.
Not even a simple ’ah’ could be uttered.
"Miss Li, are you trying to ask me what I just did to you?" Chu Jin spoke up.
Li Mi nodded frantically, her gaze filled with urgency. This was too unscientific—how could she suddenly lose her voice?
Chu Jin’s lips curled up slightly, "Actually, it’s not much, just a lesson in humanity."
"I just accidentally used a needle technique passed down by our ancestors and sealed your mute point. You pride yourself on your medical skills, thinking Western medicine is broad and profound, don’t you? Then try and see if the broad and profound Western medicine can solve what our ancestors have left behind."
Let her look down upon what our ancestors have left for us!
Today, I will use what our ancestors have left to properly cure her bad habit of worshipping foreign things!
Let her be so contemptuous again!
To denigrate the culture of Hua Nation again.
"By the way," Chu Jin raised the Golden Needle in her hand and continued, "to correct you, this is not an iron needle, this is a Golden Needle!"
Li Mi’s face changed expressions repeatedly, never having imagined that Chu Jin would actually seal her mute point outright.
And to do so in front of so many people!
If she couldn’t unseal this mute point today, how would she ever stand in this circle?
This damn wild girl!
Without delay, Li Mi had no choice but to quietly sit down on the sofa behind her, pondering in her mind how to unseal this mute point.
To her knowledge, the mute point was located 2 points in front of the neck, between the Renying Point and the Shuitu Point.
But she had never learned how to unseal the mute point.
Thereupon, she could only hold her phone and start asking in a doctors’ exchange group.
Hoping someone would know how to unseal this mute point, otherwise she would really be unable to face leaving the scene.
With Li Mi out of the way, the surroundings became much quieter.
Chu Jin sat back down beside the bed, and Shen Suhua immediately asked with some worry, "Master Chu, Yaoyao is all right, isn’t she?"
"She’s fine, rest assured, I know my limits," Chu Jin replied lightly.
Her faint voice carried a magical power that could soothe the heart, and Shen Suhua did not speak further, calmly nodding her head in assurance.
Chu Jin, holding the Golden Needle, began to puncture the major points on Wen Ziyao’s body once more.
In less than a few minutes, Wen Ziyao, who had been pale, gradually regained some color in her face, and her dry lips turned rosy again.
Sweat beaded on her forehead, and her previously faint breath became steady.
