59: Chapter 59: Shut these people up!
“Grandpa Shen, once I insert this silver needle, I guarantee you’ll be able to walk freely again.
The background in the live stream was a nursing home.
A girl wearing a black face mask crouched next to an elderly man seated in a wheelchair.
The old man nodded and smiled kindly.
“Of course I believe you.
Whenever our old buddies here felt unwell, you were the one who cured them.
We’ve missed you these past two years.”
At that moment, an elderly woman next to her intervened, “Oh dear, Little Divine Doctor, this isn’t something to mess with.
When you used to help everyone with their ailments, those were minor injuries.
The needle you have in your hand now looks terrifying; don’t end up completely ruining Old Shen’s leg.”
“Indeed, such long needles; just looking at them hurts.”
Grandpa Shen raised his hand to quiet everyone.
“Don’t worry, everyone.
I’ve heard from the elders at home that there is such a thing as silver needle therapy in Ancient Huaxia.
I, Old Shen, am willing to be a test subject for Little Divine Doctor today.”
Pei Yuexuan was anxious behind the screen, “A few needles won’t kill a person; just get started already.”
As he spoke, he felt a strong presence approaching from nearby.
Looking up, he saw Mu Yunlie approaching.
“Sir, do you… want to watch?”
Mu Yunlie didn’t say a word.
Although Mu Yunlie was inscrutable, having been by his side for many years, Pei Yuexuan still understood him somewhat.
The sir’s lack of objection meant consent.
He just couldn’t lower his face to accept his earlier invitation.
Pei Yuexuan quickly made room, “Please, take a seat.”
Mu Yunlie indeed sat down.
Pei Yuexuan stood beside him, “Sir, have you heard of this treatment method before?”
Seizing the opportunity, Pei Yuexuan praised him, “Sir is truly knowledgeable!
I’ve never heard of it!”
Not only had Mu Yunlie heard of it, but he had also experienced it personally.
However, at that time, he didn’t believe it and thought it was mere nonsense.
Now, seeing someone use the same treatment method, he was curious and wanted to take a closer look.
In the live stream room, Grandpa Shen rolled up his trouser leg, and the Divine Doctor was sterilizing the silver needles.
“Why haven’t they started!” Pei Yuexuan became anxious again.
Mu Yunlie glanced sideways at him.
He quickly shut his mouth, daring not to make another sound.
Mu Yunlie continued to watch the girl in the live stream.
Her voice sounded somewhat familiar.
He wanted to see the girl’s face more clearly.
But she was wearing a mask and there was never a frontal shot; even her eyes were unclear.
The girl pierced several silver needles into Grandpa Shen’s leg.
The viewing numbers in the live stream kept increasing as everyone awaited the results.
Many people expressed their inability to comprehend.
“Is this just sensationalism?”
“Exactly, I’ve never even heard of this.”
“Medicine is so advanced nowadays, what good can a few silver needles do?”
“What did she just say about qi deficiency and kidney weakness?
“She said something about nourishing the kidneys, that kidneys are the foundation of the innate, the storehouse of essence, including both Innate Essence and Acquired Essence, all sorts of muddled talk.”
“I saw her holding this old man’s wrist to check earlier, it’s just laughable.
A medical diagnostic pod can identify any illness accurately and here she is, thinking she can diagnose by just touching the hand?
I certainly don’t believe it.”
“Divine Doctor wasn’t before.
Has she joined a Cult over these two years?”
The screen filled with incessant comments, hampering Mu Yunlie’s observation.
He frowned slightly, “Tell these people to shut up.”
