Chapter 78: Chapter 78: Those Side Paths Are Just Suitable For Killing Chapter 78: Chapter 78: Those Side Paths Are Just Suitable For Killing This was his son, whom someone had praised, and naturally, he was delighted.
“Really? Self-taught? That’s even rarer.” Lin Caisang gave a meaningful glance at Zhong You and took the bag of silver needles from his hands.
At this moment, Zhong You, who was a head taller than Lin Caisang, was also looking at her. As her gaze swept towards him, he immediately bowed his head, acting sweet and obedient.
She opened the bag of needles, took out one, and started to apply treatment to Grand Old Master Zhong.
“Old Master Zhong, could you please have someone bring a brush and ink?” She spoke without raising her eyes.
“No need, Young Master Zhong should stay here and watch. After all, he is self-taught, and there will inevitably be some elements that are not entirely adequate. This will also give him a chance to see how a formally trained physician applies needles to save lives.”
Zhong You’s words were cut off by Lin Caisang before he could finish.
He was startled, and the look he fixed on Lin Caisang’s back turned ruthless. A violent aura surrounded him, wishing he could take the silver needle from her hands and stab her to death directly!
Old Master Zhong seemed oblivious, mistaking Lin Caisang’s intentions as a desire to teach his son. Therefore, he went out to carry out her instructions.
“Young Master Zhong You, if you slightly deviate when piercing the sleeping acupoint, it can result in death. Throughout this period, you haven’t been shorthanded in practicing your force on Grand Old Master Zhong, have you?”
As Lin Caisang treated Grand Old Master Zhong, she addressed Young Master Zhong You over her shoulder.
“How did you figure it out?”
Zhong You lowered his voice in anger and hatred, challenging Lin Caisang.
Many physicians had responded to the call, and none had discovered his involvement. His methods were so subtle that no one could detect any errors, allowing his grandfather to remain in a deep slumber.
He thought his actions would never be discovered.
But he did not expect to meet an opponent today who had foiled his secret plot.
“Is it that difficult?”
Lin Caisang chuckled lightly and asked him.
“If one does not want others to know what one has done, one should not have done it in the first place. You think your needle application technique can surpass anyone, but forgot an old saying.”
Zhong You narrowed his eyes and asked coldly.
“There’s always someone better; there’s always a higher sky.” Lin Caisang replied.
With that, she swiftly moved her hand, retracting several needles back into the bag and got up to face him.
“A word of advice for you. These silver needles are not suitable for you. If I hadn’t come today, you would already be a murderer of your kin. If you apply the needles one more time with your technique, your grandfather’s life will be lost at your hand.
The side techniques you’ve learned are fit only for killing.”
As Zhong You tried to speak, footsteps approached the room. He immediately fell silent and turned to look at his father.
“Miss, how is my grandfather now?”
Seeing Lin Caisang standing, Old Master Zhong anxiously asked.
“He’s momentarily safe and will wake up shortly,” said Lin Caisang.
“Is the brush and ink ready? I will write a prescription. Administer the medicine to him every day, and within half a year, his health should be restored. However…”
She looked back, casting an icy glance at Zhong You.
“Even though Young Master Zhong’s medical skills are self-taught, there are bound to be deficiencies. In my opinion, it would be better for Old Master Zhong to find a reputable mentor for him, first get a good grasp of the medical profession. For the time being, it might be better not to involve him in the affairs of the grandfather.”
She hinted suggestively as she spoke.
She naturally would not say too much about these internal family disputes, nor did she have any right to question them. She was merely a healer doing her job, no more.
