Chapter 302: Chapter 301: Dantian

"Dean Miao was right, but let’s talk about the lecture some other time. For now, do you both feel reassured about letting me proceed with the acupuncture? And Aunt Zhong, what do you think?" Lin Tian looked at them earnestly and asked.

Even though it was his first meeting with Dean Miao, Lin Tian could tell he was a fair and impartial person, who valued reason over relationships and would not permit acupuncture simply because he admired Lin Tian.

That’s why Lin Tian spoke at length to convince him. If he didn’t have the skills, there wouldn’t have been a need to persuade him so fervently, but since he could heal, he wouldn’t stand by and do nothing. Otherwise, he would be failing the medical skills his grandfather had imparted to him.

As a layperson in the matter, Zhong Huiyun didn’t have much of an opinion. She looked at Dean Miao, hoping he would make a decision since he was more knowledgeable.

"Young man, if I still didn’t allow it, then I must be blind. Just do your work seriously. If you need any instruments or an assistant, just tell me. This old body of mine can still be useful. If you need me, I can assist you," Dean Miao promised solemnly.

Lin Tian indeed needed acupuncture tools and disinfectant, as well as a helper, but he couldn’t actually use the elderly dean as an assistant.

"Dean Miao, I will need acupuncture tools, a basin, and towels," Lin Tian quickly listed a few things and paused before continuing, "Hmm, and also an assistant."

"All those things are easy to arrange. Doctor Bi, go get my acupuncture kit from my office," Dean Miao thought for a moment and instructed the middle-aged doctor to retrieve the needles.

Although Doctor Bi was reluctant, he still turned and left the room.

Dean Miao asked the other nurses to prepare the tools. Finally, only the assistant was left undecided. He then said to Lin Tian, "Young man, there are so many people here, including myself, who do you want to assist you? If no one is suitable, I can also arrange for someone from the acupuncture department to come over."

It was just a disinfection task, but Dean Miao made it sound so important that Lin Tian was somewhat bemused. However, he still had to choose someone. He turned his head, scanning the room full of people, and only then realized that, aside from the dean and himself, everyone else was female.

Every person Lin Tian looked at straightened their back and lifted their head, as if competing for this temporary assistant position. Especially Xiao Manxuan, the little girl who stood the straightest, as if she were trying hardest not to go unnoticed.

"Lin Tian, let me be your assistant. I was present during your last acupuncture session; I know what to do," Xiao Manxuan volunteered earnestly.

"Uh, Mr. Xiao, this is a hospital, please don’t get involved," Lin Tian said.

You little girl are not skilled at all, and if you accidentally hurt yourself in a rush, I would feel heartbroken, Lin Tian winked at her, conveying exactly that thought. The little girl certainly had sharp eyes, able to easily see through others’ intentions; she understood Lin Tian’s meaning immediately and felt sweet inside.

"I’ll do it then," Zi Yan said to Lin Tian.

"Sister, didn’t you want to watch the acupuncture again? If you’re busy, how will you be able to see?" Lin Tian likewise winked at her and said.

Zi Yan was taken aback for a moment but then realized the point and did not insist further.

"Angel nurse, could you help me out later?" Lin Tian turned to a pretty young nurse and asked.

This nurse was the same girl who had previously shown them the way. Dressed in a pink nurse’s outfit, her skin looked particularly fair. She let out a shocked "ah" without responding immediately.

"Xiao Xia, you be Lin Tian’s assistant," a middle-aged nurse, who looked to be the head nurse judging by the badge on her hat, reminded her.

"Okay, sure," the nurse called Xiao Xia nodded and agreed, her large eyes curiously studying Lin Tian.

Zhang Lingyu looked at the little nurse, then at Lin Tian, and couldn’t help but mutter under her breath, "This bastard is indeed a big pervert, always hitting on pretty little nurses!"

With his sensitive ears, Lin Tian heard her muttering and felt chills all over.

What kind of logic is this little girl using? All the nurses here are good-looking, so who do you expect me to choose, huh? If I went for the middle-aged head nurse, you’d say I have a weird taste. Lin Tian was quite depressed, as it seemed like there was no right choice to make.

"Dean Miao, the acupuncture kit has arrived," said Doctor Bi as he walked in from outside, interrupting Lin Tian’s thoughts.

Without giving it another thought, Lin Tian reached out for it. Being commanded in such a manner, Doctor Bi felt a surge of anger but wanted to lash out. However, with Dean Miao present, he had to restrain himself.

"I did it on purpose!" Lin Tian said to him with a cold sneer.

"You..." Doctor Bi clenched his teeth and, pressing down his anger, said in a low voice, "Humph, don’t get smug. I’m watching you and how you’ll fail. Even if Dean Miao puts you on a pedestal, you’re nothing but a greenhorn. Just you wait and make a fool of yourself!"

"Is that so?" Lin Tian said with a mischievous smile, "Doctor Bi, please help Mr. Zuo sit up and maintain a sitting posture, then take off his shirt."

"You... you little brat dare boss me around!" Doctor Bi glared at Lin Tian, his voice deep and low.

Yet Dean Miao glared at him and said displeased, "Doctor Bi, make it quick. This is a great opportunity, so learn from the younger brother, understand?"

Doctor Bi was left speechless, asking heaven why he hadn’t checked the almanac before leaving his house, as even a shift at work could encounter such frustrating incidents. But since the dean had spoken, he dared not oppose and reluctantly started to assist Lin Tian.

"Miss Xiaoxia, sterilize all the silver needles," Lin Tian also got into the zone and immediately issued instructions to the little nurse.

The little nurse took the acupuncture kit, unfolded the cloth, adeptly pulled out the silver needles, carefully sterilized them, and placed the sterilized needles separately, lined up neatly so they were ready for Lin Tian to reach out and take.

By this time, Doctor Bi had also helped Zuo Hongyi sit up and removed his shirt. Zuo Hongyi’s body was covered in patches of blue and purple, the contusions still very obvious even after the nurse’s treatment.

One look and you could tell that before receiving the head injury, he had been beaten. A flash of cold light crossed Lin Tian’s eyes, The people who struck you, you deserve to die! Doctor Bi, being the closest, felt a chill come over him and involuntarily shivered. Seeing the coldness in Lin Tian’s eyes, an inexplicable fear arose in his heart.

But the chill came abruptly and left just as suddenly. When Doctor Bi looked at Lin Tian again, Lin Tian had already closed his eyes.

The onlookers all thought that Lin Tian was adjusting his state, but the truth was known only to him.

Lin Tian had already activated his X-ray vision, letting his gaze penetrate Zuo Hongyi’s muscles, bones, and internal organs, scanning him from foot to head. Fortunately, the injuries were only superficial and there was no internal damage, which was a stroke of luck amid misfortune. Lin Tian breathed a sigh of relief.

While everyone watched attentively, Lin Tian suddenly opened his eyes, and before the onlookers could react, his hands were already pinching three silver needles.

In quick succession, Lin Tian inserted the silver needles into the Yintang Acupoint, the Dan Zhong Acupoint, and the Qi Sea Acupoint.

Dean Miao was puzzled and muttered to himself, "What’s the young brother up to, targeting the three major Dantian locations right from the start!"
