Capítulo 639: Chapter 621: Expelled from the Sect
Having Bai Lu commence the applause, the dozen or so doctors also began clapping, albeit belatedly.
The sparse applause was nevertheless music to Lin Yi’s ears. He asked Yang Gong to come back, then applied the High-Efficiency Activating Oil, and used a supportive brace to fix and correct the dislocated muscles.
“Wait a moment, and you’ll be fully recovered.”
Yang Gong cooperated well with Lin Yi, and sure enough, a moment later, his leg had fully recovered to its pre-injury state.
“It’s miraculous, Lord Lin, you truly are Hua Tuo reincarnate. Thank you, Lord Lin! Someone, go and fetch my Purple Sand Jade Pot from my collection. I want to give it to Lord Lin!”
The Purple Sand Jade Pot was a treasure that Yang Gong had obtained from the Western Regions, priceless indeed, but to show his gratitude, Mr. Yang was willing to part with it. For original chapters go to NoveI[F]ire.net
However, Lin Yi shook his head and said, “President Yang, there’s no need to rush, we’ll discuss our matter slowly later.” Then, Lin Yi approached the doctor named Cai, who was lying on the ground, and looked at him with interest.
“Well, a bet is a bet, fulfill your promise now and declare you are no longer a disciple of Divine Doctor Zhang. Everyone is here to witness.”
Those doctors who had previously congratulated Doctor Cai seemed to have collectively forgotten him, not even sparing him a glance, instead, they started to loudly praise Lin Yi’s medical skills.
Doctor Cai, like a dog that had lost its home, lay on the ground trembling, while Yang Gong did not show any compassion and ordered him to leave.
Unable to accept it, Doctor Cai suddenly got up and bellowed like a madman.
“I have long suspected that Lin Yi isn’t human; he is a demon, performing Demon Art. A mere Eunuch, he must have learned some Demon Art to win countless battles, creating distracting trinkets and bewitching His Majesty…”
Doctor Cai clearly had lost his mind, ranting absurdly at Lin Yi and forgetting that such reckless talk could easily land him in the Heavenly Prison for life.
Unable to watch any longer, Bai Lu rushed over and started beating Doctor Cai.
Lin Yi remained calm; it was the first time he had heard someone accuse him of being a demon.
Just then, a servant of Yang Gong rushed in, announcing that Divine Doctor Zhang had arrived and was right outside.
“Oh, Divine Doctor Zhang? What brings him here suddenly? What wind has brought him, quickly prepare some fine tea, I’ll go out and welcome him.”
Yang Gong, startled and honored, had heard of the famed Divine Doctor but had never met him. He hastily adjusted his sleeves and collar and hurried out.
The dozen doctors also followed Yang Gong happily, considering themselves fortunate to meet Divine Doctor Zhang, a blessing from their life’s cultivation.
Hearing that Divine Doctor Zhang had arrived, Doctor Cai sobered up significantly. He tried to get up to greet him but couldn’t because he had just been beaten by Bai Lu.
“Ha ha ha, my master has arrived. Lin Yi, just wait. I’ll have my master decide for me. You dared to disrespect my master just now. I’ll settle this account with you.”
Lin Yi coldly glanced at Doctor Cai, then turned to ask Bai Lu.
“Did you reveal my whereabouts to Divine Doctor Zhang, which is why he followed here?”
Bai Lu was somewhat embarrassed; he had inadvertently let slip where Divine Doctor Zhang’s disloyal disciple was while he was inviting the doctors.
“Lord Lin, it wasn’t intentional,” Bai Lu said, uneasy like a child who had done something wrong.
Unable to hold back, Doctor Cai scornfully said, “It’s ridiculous for you to claim that my master came for you, a Castrated Man. What a joke.”
Constantly mentioning “Castrated Man,” though Lin Yi wasn’t very bothered, repeatedly saying so was challenging his patience.
Lin Yi gave Bai Lu a look, “It seems he knows quite a bit about Castrated Men. You can handle it later.”
“As you command, Lord Lin!”
Once these words were spoken, Dr. Cai completely panicked. He desperately tried to get up and escape but was forcefully pinned to the ground by Bai Lu.
“You are going too far, you oppress the common people, I am going to accuse you in front of Your Majesty, Lin Yi, you are nothing but a hypocrite! You eunuch, you bring disaster to the nation!”
At that moment, Divine Doctor Zhang, who rushed over in haste, heard this unbearable scene and turned green with fury.
“You worthless fool, do you know who you are cursing?” Divine Doctor Zhang, without even having time to salute Lin Yi, stepped forward and slapped the arrogant Dr. Cai twice.
Dr. Cai was left with two bright red handprints on his face, still obliviously ranting.
“Master, Master, you have to stand up for me. Just now, Lin Yi actually accused you of pretending to be a Divine Doctor, said your medical skills were poor, and claimed you do not deserve to be the Divine Doctor of You Country.”
When it comes to distorting the truth, this Mr. Cai dares to claim second place with no one daring to claim first.
As Dr. Cai waited for his master to settle the score with Lin Yi, he did not expect to receive another two fierce slaps instead.
“You know nothing, what Lord Lin said is correct, my medical skills are indeed poor, I do not deserve to be the Divine Doctor of You Country, whatever he says is right.”
“You worthless fool, I, Zhang Hongyun, do not have a disciple like you, everyone present can testify, today, I am expelling him from my tutelage!”
Dr. Cai panicked, hurriedly clung to Divine Doctor Zhang’s feet pleading for mercy, wanting to understand more, but was ruthlessly kicked away by Divine Doctor Zhang.
Then, Divine Doctor Zhang turned to Lin Yi and bowed deeply three times, his face full of apology.
“Please forgive me, teacher, for having such a disgraceful disciple, I have truly brought shame upon you. Please accept your student’s triple bow.”
Everyone was dumbfounded once again, who could have guessed that Divine Doctor Zhang’s teacher was actually the Great General Lin Yi!
“How, how is this possible? Master, are you mistaken, he, he a Castrated Man, how could he possibly be your teacher?” Dr. Cai shook his head in disbelief.
So it turned out, Lin Yi was also his own grandmaster?
Divine Doctor Zhang, overwhelmed with shame and anger, rebuked: “Scoundrel, I no longer have a disciple like you. President Yang, this person is causing trouble in your courtyard and disturbing the peace, you should report to the authorities.”
“Master, please come this way.”
Divine Doctor Zhang led Lin Yi to a nearby pavilion, not wanting to look any further at this disciple who tarnished his reputation.
Lin Yi nodded; such a degenerate indeed should not be practicing medicine.
This time, Divine Doctor Zhang approached Lin Yi regarding a new herbal prescription, as the intense summer heat was unbearable, and common folks sought to prepare herbal remedies, yet one or two ingredients were always scarce.
Lin Yi thought for a moment and then wrote down a prescription for him.
Water, sugarcane, Immortal Herbs, frangipani, Mallow Leaf, Chrysanthemum, Honeysuckle, dried summer grass, grass.
“Ten spoons of each ingredient, boil and let cool to drink.”
These ingredients were common and even ones that people could find themselves by the roadside, being very low-cost.
Divine Doctor Zhang looked incredulously at such an “affordable” prescription and could not help asking.
“Master, is this really effective?”
Lin Yi smiled; this was the classic Wanglaoji recipe from future generations, which played a major role in a past epidemic, literally saving countless lives with this formula.
