Chapter 402: Chapter 280 What’s the Matter_4
“Why should I hit someone? He was asking for it; can’t you see?” Liu Wentian retorted.
“Asking for it? I think you’ve simply gone mad!”
Aunt Xu ground her teeth, looking at Liu Wentian with utter disdain, and said hatefully, “Is anything he said wrong? My son comes from a better family than you, and he himself is more capable than you. Did he speak incorrectly? And you have the nerve to call yourself a divine doctor? Pah! My son is right; only an idiot would consider you a divine doctor!”
Her face was twisted with fury, no longer showing any of her earlier kindness. She appeared like a shrew and her look towards Liu Wentian was filled with venomous resentment.
Xie Zhengren was also angry. “Ignorant fool! You cure one patient and think you’re a divine doctor? You even dare to hurt people! Call the police! Call them right now!”
Liu Wentian nearly laughed in anger. Xie Wenlong was the one who cursed at him, but in their eyes, it was he who was arrogant and presumptuous, claiming to be a divine doctor!
“What’s going on? Zhengren, what happened to you?” At that moment, an elder walked in through the doorway, and upon seeing the scene, couldn’t help exclaiming in surprise.
Everyone looked over. Seeing the elder, Xu Zhengren immediately wore a respectful look and hastily went over, saying as he walked,
“Teacher, you’re here at last. It’s nothing serious; just a young brat causing trouble here. I’ve already reported to the police; the problem will be resolved soon and won’t affect the conference.”
The others, upon seeing the elder, also showed smiles. The younger ones respectfully called out “Elder Gu, the divine doctor” while those who were older and had streaks of purple in their hair simply said “Elder Gu” with high regard, clearly having much faith in the elder.
Some among them, wishing to establish connections with the old man and knowing his relationship with Xie Wenlong, now glared furiously at Liu Wentian.
“Elder Gu, it’s just some ignorant youngster causing trouble here, even injuring Wenlong. He’s behaving just like a street thug!”
“How did this kind of person get into the world of traditional medicine? If you ask me, he should be thrown out!”
“This guy calls himself a divine doctor; Wenlong couldn’t restrain himself and said only an idiot would call him a divine doctor, yet he had the audacity to attack him immediately. Utter lawlessness!”
“What a divine doctor he pretends to be? Ridiculous!”
Seeing his master appear and almost everyone siding with him, Xie Wenlong was triumphant despite the excruciating pain in his hand, and he viciously said to Liu Wentian, “This isn’t over; you’re finished! My master certainly won’t let you off!”
No sooner had he spoken than his master suddenly paused, then quickly walked towards them.
Xie Wenlong felt extremely excited to see his master so concerned about him.
His father had told him a few days ago that his master had now returned to their province and would likely remain here afterward. Furthermore, his father had mentioned that his master had agreed to let him study by his side for a year, to personally tutor him!
Upon hearing this news, Xie Wenlong was ecstatic.
Although his father was very capable, in terms of influence and medical skills, he was far inferior to his master. If he could study under his master for one year, his medical skills would significantly improve, and his influence would be incomparable. It was an amazing opportunity!
Xie Wenlong hurriedly put on a respectful and sycophantic smile and said, “Master, my hand is really fine; you don’t need to worry too much about me. It’s just this guy who has no real skill, yet he dares to claim he’s a divine doctor. He’s nothing but rubbish; it’s absurd. That’s why I said only an idiot would call him a divine doctor; I never thought he would actually take action. He’s really courting death!”
At that moment, his heart swelled with pride as he looked down on Liu Wentian in front of him even more.
However, to his shock, his master seemed to have not even noticed him as he walked past and approached Liu Wentian with joy, saying, “Doctor Liu, what brings you here? Haha! This is such a coincidence! I just have a very tricky patient and I was thinking of asking for your help!”
Whoa!
The room went silent, and everyone was stunned, with Xie Wenlong’s mouth hanging open, having forgotten to close it.
Even Sheng Qianmei, who knew of Liu Wentian’s high medical skills, was somewhat dazed at this moment.
The man before them was a legend in the Huaxia traditional medical circle, the revered Elder Gu Daosong!
To be called a national treasure meant that Elder Gu Daosong had reached the pinnacle in the field of traditional medicine!
And now, he was addressing Liu Wentian as Doctor Liu, saying he had a tricky patient and wishing to ask for Liu Wentian’s help!
Didn’t that mean that the patient Elder Gu himself couldn’t cure, he believed Liu Wentian might be able to?
Although Sheng Qianmei knew Liu Wentian was highly skilled in medicine, she was still shocked to hear such words from an elder known as a national treasure!
If she felt that way, then one could only imagine how the rest felt!
Those who had been mocking Liu Wentian just felt as if Elder Gu’s words were like a thunderclap exploding beside their ears, leaving them somewhat dazed.
And for the three members of the Xie Family, they were already stupefied; Xie Zhengren’s formerly proud and dignified face now looked as if he had seen a ghost, his eyes wide open.
Elder Gu also quickly noticed the expressions of those around him and, recalling what Xie Zhengren had said, formed a guess in his mind. His eyes immediately widened at Xie Zhengren as he asked loudly, “Zhengren, what’s going on? Are you having a dispute with Doctor Liu?”
Elder Gu had great respect for Liu Wentian, not least because of his Eight Trigram Shift Healing Needle that brought back the dead and the profoundly mysterious Qi-transformation Needle, skills far beyond his own reach.
At the same time, he was very grateful to Liu Wentian; without him, he wouldn’t even know what was wrong with his granddaughter’s face.
Xie Zhengren held Elder Gu in great esteem, almost like a father. Seeing the elder angry, his face turned slightly purple, his lips moved, but he still said nothing.
Liu Wentian touched his nose and said with a playful smile, “Actually, it’s nothing much. It’s just that this Xie Wenlong said only an idiot would call me a divine doctor. His parents seem to agree. So it seems, Elder Gu, you’ve become that idiot…”
