Chapter 353 - Quack Doctors! (1/2)

Although Xiao Tianfan was moved by Ling Chuxi’s last sentence, he never would have believed that the medical pill had been refined by Ling Chuxi herself. In fact, it was not only Xiao Tianfan who thought so – hadn’t everyone else there thought that it was Luo Li that had refined it?

“Alright then. I will bring you there to give it a try.” For the sake of his grandfather’s life, Xiao Tianfan did not think too much. ‘Just like Ling Chuxi said, treat a dead horse like a live horse… Ptui! I shouldn’t jinx it.’

In a small courtyard which had been decorated elegantly, the dozens of ‘famous doctors’ hired by the Xiao Family using large sums of money were having lively discussions.

“In my opinion, this is the stagnation of the yin qi (1) and blockage of the arteries and veins. The deficiency of essence and blood, as well as the weakness of both qi and blood-” A middle-aged man with a goatee said loudly while stroking his beard.

“No, that’s not right. Old Master Xiao has cultivated his whole life and his Battle Qi is vigorous. How can it be stagnation of his yin qi? It should be excessive yang qi (2) instead!” Another old man with a white beard shook his head.

“What do you know? Who said that after cultivating Battle Qi that one’s yin qi could not be stagnant?” Goatee glared at him.

“When I started practicing medicine, you were still suckling on milk. What do you know?” The old man with the white beard glared back fiercely.

“The two of you, stop quarrelling! From what I see, it is most likely-” Another person came up to smooth things over.

“What do you know?!” The both of them yelled at him at the same time.

…

Loud quarrelling noises could be heard coming from the courtyard, which was as noisy as a market. A few of them had rolled up their sleeves, and it seemed like things were escalating into a martial arts display.

The moment Ling Chuxi entered, she saw the scene and silently shook her head. ‘They have this kind of character and yet they can become famous doctors. I really don’t know what type of people the Xiao Family hired, even a healthy person could die from the noise they’re creating.’

“Everyone, please keep calm.” Xiao Tianfan’s first uncle pressed his hands on the table and asked wearily, “Fellow masters, have any of you found a way to save my father?”
