Urban Divine Doctor Descends the Mountain

Chapter 275: Chapter 275: Wang Xiuxin’s Revenge

Emotionally enclosed, this strange disease had progressed further.

At this point, she barely had any emotional fluctuations. If left untreated, and allowed to continue developing, she would eventually become a person without any human emotions or desires, devoid of a soul.

Just like a living dead!

Lin Dong was puzzled; why was she fine yesterday, yet had become like this today?

Could it be because of Wang Xiuxin’s doing?

Had her heart been wounded by Wang Xiuxin again?

He walked towards Qiao Bing and stood in front of her, but Qiao Bing merely gave him a faint glance.

”Director Qiao, what’s wrong with you?” Lin Dong asked.

”It’s okay,” she responded, indifferently.

”Shall I give you acupuncture?” asked Lin Dong.

”No need.”

”...”

Lin Dong wanted to find some topics to chat with her, but her replies were always no more than three words, completely devoid of emotion.

After speaking just a few words, Qiao Bing didn’t want to talk anymore and went off to the doctor’s office by herself, sitting in front of the computer and spacing out.

Seeing this, Lin Dong also fell into a quandary.

Actually, at this stage, acupuncture would not be very effective.

The only way to heal her would probably be to completely open up the knot in her heart. But with her in this state, it’s difficult to have a normal chat, and Lin Dong had no idea what her heart’s knot was all about.

Moreover, if her heart’s knot was related to Wang Xiuxin, Lin Dong couldn’t help her.

Lin Dong thought that after yesterday noon, he wouldn’t want to deal with Qiao Bing’s problems anymore. But now, seeing her like this, Lin Dong couldn’t help but worry subconsciously.

He wanted to cure her!

Seeing her like this, Lin Dong felt even worse than yesterday.

As he was mulling over the situation, suddenly, his phone rang.

Lin Dong took out his phone and saw that the caller was surprisingly his apprentice Zhuge Lingyou.

This was unexpected.

Why would Zhuge Lingyou call him out of the blue?

After the call was connected, the urgent voice on the other end said:

”Master, could you come to the Medicine King Hall? We’ve had an accident here today!”

Lin Dong was startled and quickly asked, ”What happened?”

”That Wang Xiuxin came to challenge our Medicine King Hall. My grandpa, he can’t hold off much longer!” Zhuge Lingyou spoke with anxiety.

Hearing this, Lin Dong frowned.

He remembered Wang Xiuxin’s threat at the evening banquet the night before, after the Medicine King refused to sell him the ancient alchemist’s recipe.

He had told the Medicine King to wait and see, that he would make him pay tomorrow.

Was this his retribution?

Lin Dong naturally could not sit by and do nothing about it.

After all, he was also involved as the recipe had been given to him by the Medicine King. Now that this incident had happened because of it, he could not stand idly by.

”Okay, I’ll come over immediately!” Lin Dong said hurriedly.

He didn’t have much work at the hospital at the moment, so he took leave and walked out of the main gate, hailed a taxi, and headed for the Medicine King Hall.

About fifteen minutes later, the taxi arrived at the Medicine King Hall.

After Lin Dong got out of the car, he saw that many people had gathered at the entrance to the Medicine King Hall.

One of them, wearing a long robe, had set up a table for seeing patients and placed it at the entrance of the Medicine King Hall.

That was none other than Wang Xiuxin.

”Medicine King, your grandson Zhuge Lingyou has already lost to me. Next, it’s your turn to face me! If you lose as well, then I think, your Medicine King Hall better stop treating people, so you don’t lose dignity.”

Zhuge Lingyou’s face was extremely ugly as he had just lost a medical competition to Wang Xiuxin!

As for the Medicine King, anger was visible in his eyes.

Being insulted like that by a junior, how could he, a senior figure in the world of Traditional Chinese Medicine, swallow such an insult?

”You want to challenge me? Then I want to see if you really have the ability!” the Medicine King said sternly.

”Okay, Medicine King. Would you dare to wager a stake?” Wang Xiuxin shrugged.

”Why wouldn’t I dare!” the Medicine King snorted coldly.

”Fine, if I win, I want to take down your plaque from the Medicine King Hall!” Wang Xiuxin said.

At those words, fire seemed to spark in the eyes of Zhuge Lingyou and others from the Medicine King Hall standing by.

To a Traditional Chinese Medicine hall, a plaque is like their rice bowl. And now someone wanted to take their plaque away, tantamount to cutting off their lifeline.

It’s akin to taking one’s parental livelihood, something they could not tolerate.

Zhuge Lingyou and others from the Medicine King Hall cried out in unison, ”Grandpa, take action and teach him a lesson!”

”Master, show this ignorant kid that there are more talented people out there in the world!”

”Too arrogant, even dare to talk about taking down our Medicine King Hall’s plaque. This is a legacy passed down for hundreds of years, such cultural foundation cannot be removed by just your words!”

”...”

The Medicine King appeared very angry and said coldly, ”What if you lose?”

”If I lose, do with me as you please!” Wang Xiuxin said, holding a folding fan in his hand, now opening it with a smile.

”Fine! If you lose, I want you to bow your head and apologize!”

the Medicine King declared.

Even with the other party being so aggressive, the most severe punishment he could think of was just to make the other party apologize.

Some people are bad to the core. But there are also those who just can’t bring themselves to be malicious.

”Okay! Then let’s start the competition. Let’s find two patients from amongst these and see who can cure their patient first, and whoever does it first will win!” Wang Xiuxin proposed.

”Okay,” the Medicine King nodded.

Subsequently, two volunteers stood out.

The medical competition had officially begun...
