Chapter 160: Outrageous (1/2)
Beautiful Woman lowered her head, her hand was still floating around the empty space over the madame’s chest. Everyone felt that something just did not add up and they could not understand what she was doing… Majority of the people thought she was faking it. Ye Wuchen closed his eyes, his brows quickly moved because he could sense that below Beautiful Woman’s palm, the old lady’s internal body temperature was frighteningly cold. Such a terribly low temperature did not leak out from within her body that other people could detect it as it was almost fully concealed by some strange powers.
What kind of divine being was Beautiful Woman?
While he was deep in thought, Beautiful Woman already stood up. With a beautiful smile she said, “Just give me three days time and she will fully recover.”
“This… Can you really bring her back to life?” Shui Nanhe had an incredulous tone as he confirmed again.
“Grandpa Medicine Expert, can you really not believe me? As you have already mentioned, Grandpa Medicine Expert, these two cannot survive another quarter of an hour. If this old sister still survives after a quarter of an hour, doesn’t that prove that I am not lying?” Beautiful Woman hardly felt worried.
“Young lady, do you really have the means?” the servant was once again being emotional. As long as she could save them in three days, even three weeks or three months he would still be wild with joy.
“Don’t you worry, as long as she says she can, then that will be fine.” Shui Nanhe was unexpectedly calm. He took a few glimpses at Beautiful Woman, then he chuckled and said, “The peculiar method that you used a while ago gives me a familiar feeling, even if you are not the woman that I met five years ago, then you must be somehow related to her. Such an extraordinary person like you didn’t just speak without thinking. As compared to an old man being regarded as the ‘Medicine Expert’ like me, I really feel ashamed.”
The crowd became silent, everyone seemed to have heard of the implied meaning of this statement, one by one they shifted their gazes towards the woman who would return from the dead. Shui Nanhe’s words were obviously implying that she was the one true extraordinary talent of the medical field.
Beautiful Woman hooked up her eyes, with a timely laugh she said, “Grandpa Medicine Expert, I really don’t deserve your praise. I am just playing a game with little brother.” she rolled her eyes, looked at Ye Wuchen and said, “Little brother, would you believe that, after a quarter of an hour, you will lose?”
“There’s no need to wait that long.” Ye Wuchen laid down two hands that were folded on his chest, while his face stayed expressionless. Then, he did not say anything further, butapproached the unconscious mayor, crouched down and lifted up the limp body, making him sit up in a slanting position.
Shui Nanhe gestured with his hands to silence the crowd. Both eyes luminously looked at Ye Wuchen, expecting him to do some universally shocking miracle. Beautiful Woman’s face had a shallow smile, yet she was not worried. She believed a hundred percent that in the whole wide world, she alone had the capability to heal someone who had internal damage like this.
Ye Wuchen straightened up the mayor’s body, took out an unknown pill and put it in his mouth, struck the lower jaw to force him to swallow it, then moved to his back. With one hand supporting him, the other was rubbing his back with slowly movements as threads of Ye Wuchen’s powers penetrated through the back to quickly restore the damaged internal organs and at the same time dissolve the Night Devil Powder. Ye Wuchen powers could dispel all sorts of poisonsand they also had the ability to mix with all sorts of poisons, so Ye Wuchen was not afraid of poison. He alone could operate the powers so no other person would be able to sense it, not even the god-level experts. Aside from seeing the movement on his hands, other people would not be able to feel the presence of the powers.
After a minute, Ye Wuchen took back his hands and cautiously said, “President Qin, please give me three silver needles.”
The confused old Qin immediately responded and quickly came back with three silver needles. In a medical competition, it was impossible not to have any silver needles prepared.
Ye Wuchen used the three needles to prick the area two inches from the middle of the back, at the same time the power rushed inside the body through the needles.
The unconscious mayor’s body fiercely trembled and suddenly, his mouth opened, spurting out a mouthful of pitch-black concentrated blood that covered his chest as he violently coughed. After a few coughs, he suddenly lifted up his head. Glancing around in surprise, he asked in a weak voice, “Where is this?”
The surrounding people were petrified.
“Who are you people…” Indeed he was the mayor, as even though he had woken up from in unfamiliar place where people with strange expressions surrounded him, he did not panic, only quickly regaining his composure and weakly asked.
“Master… You are awake, you have finally woken up… Very good… Amazing, physician! Indeed, you are an amazing physician!”
The servant was so excited that he talked without any rhyme, in the midst of despair he finally saw the sun behind the clouds that had settled down his terrified heart so much that he almost wanted to kneel and wail. The mayor’s eyes swept through the people, furrowed his brows and asked, “A-Fu, what happened here? I remember I was having lunch with madame a while ago, then…” He slapped his forehead, the memory that followed was blank. He sensed that something was wrong, and suddenly, he found his wife lying beside him, so he turned pale with shock. He hurriedly moved his body over and shouted, “Beloved wife! What happened to you? What happened to you, my lady!”
“Master, you and madame were poisoned, and almost lost your lives, but this amazing physician saved your life.” A-Fu shouted, with face full of tears he narrated all the things that had happened, but made no mention of the person who put the poison because this was part of the family scandal, not suitable to announce publicly. At the same time, the people in the surroundings were being introduced to him one by one.
Upon hearing of the incident, the mayor was deeply worried. Ignoring his weak body, he was utterly thankful and he begged Ye Wuchen, who was sitting there meditating, “Respected great physician, thank you very much for saving my life, I will certainly engrave this gratitude deep within my heart. I would like to request your utmost mercy again to save my wife’s life, even if I were to sacrifice my own life to repay you, I will certainly do so.”
Ye Wuchen opened his eyes and slowly nodded his head. Since he had used his powers to heal another person, whether the speed, difficulty, and consumption, all of the factors had a greater effect on recuperation.
The crowd which had been kept off by the city guards roared as people incessantly discussed in low voices. Their shock was nothing compared to the shock felt by President Qin and Shui Nanhe, and also… Beautiful Woman. They were the ones who truly understood the mayor and his lady’s condition. It was already incredibly astonishing when Beautiful Woman told them that it would take her three days to save the madame, but Ye Wuchen had woken the mayor just within a quarter of an hour. They could only regard this as something outrageous. Although the mayor looked somehow weak, his facial color gradually turned rosy, with the appearance of just having recovered from a minor illness, more likely he was already fully recovered!
Even if Shui Nanhe had a very big expectations, this moment, his expression was so exaggerated as if he had seen a ghost in the broad daylight. Moreover, from the beginning until the end, he simply could not find the real method that Ye Wuchen had used to save him. President Qin was so utterly speechless that he forgot to greet the mayor and only incessantly repeated, “So mysterious… Mysterious indeed…”
Beautiful Woman’s smile had stiffened for quite a long time. For the first time, her face exposed an alarmed expression. Her gaze directly focused on Ye Wuchen and her eyes swiftly moved restlessly as she took another look at this young man.
