Chapter 53: Chapter 53: Seven Stars Exorcism_1
Indeed, when treating a condition that resembles death, one should use the first, ninth, and seventeenth needles from the Yongtian Eighteen Needles. However, Shen Baojie never intended to completely cure Duoduo.
Every time he treated a patient, he would deliberately leave a minor issue unresolved. By doing so, the patient would get significantly better but not fully recover, thus having to continue spending money on his treatments.
The rapid development of Baozhitang today relied on Shen Baojie’s outstanding business acumen.
When Shen Baojie inserted the first needle, Qin Feng was shocked. What he used was not the first needle of the Yongtian Eighteen Needles, but the third.
"Divine Doctor Qin, I remember you saying that after I insert the first needle, Duoduo would foam at the mouth. Now, I’ve finished inserting the first needle quite some time ago, and she hasn’t foamed at the mouth, has she?"
Qin Feng did not speak. He was afraid that his words would interfere and influence Shen Baojie’s subsequent actions.
By using the third needle of the Yongtian Eighteen Needles as the first, Shen Baojie clearly had no intention of curing Duoduo’s death-like convulsions. He must have wanted to leave room for manipulation to deceive Yu Keqing several more times.
Since what Duoduo had was not the condition resembling death, Shen Baojie deliberately used this incorrect method to treat her, which was somewhat better for her. At least, she wouldn’t be killed!
"Divine Doctor Qin usually has a lot to say, don’t you? Why are you completely silent now? Could it be that you’re embarrassed to speak after being proven wrong?"
After mocking Qin Feng, Shen Baojie inserted the second needle. Duoduo’s pale little face immediately regained some rosiness.
"Divine Doctor Qin, didn’t you say that after I insert the second needle, Duoduo would vomit blood? Where is the blood? I haven’t seen her vomit, have I? However, her little face isn’t so deathly pale anymore, and some color has returned. This shows that my two needles have already brought her back at least halfway."
Qin Feng still didn’t speak, but just smiled.
The self-satisfied Shen Baojie inserted the third needle.
"Remember, Divine Doctor Qin, you said that after I insert the third needle, Duoduo would immediately kick out her legs and then die. Now, I’ve already inserted the third needle. I wonder if Duoduo will pass away by kicking her legs, just as you hoped for?"
The three needles used by Shen Baojie could only resuscitate and revive, they were not the treatment for the condition that resembled death.
Therefore, according to his expectation, after inserting the third needle, Duoduo would open her eyes, and even weakly utter a few words.
Just with these two signs, he would be able to swindle the one billion yuan that Yu Keqing had agreed to give.
But to his astonishment, Duoduo not only opened her eyes, she actually sat up directly?
This result was much better than what Shen Baojie had anticipated!
"Mrs. Yu, look quickly, Duoduo is better! Duoduo has sat up! My three needles have cured your daughter!"
Yu Keqing looked at Duoduo, somewhat incredulous. Her daughter was cured? Was her daughter really cured?
Her eyes suddenly reddened.
Yu Keqing rushed over and tightly embraced her daughter.
"Duoduo, how do you feel? Are you feeling better? Is there still any discomfort in your body?"
"Mama, wah..."
Just after Duoduo called out for her mother, a mouthful of fresh blood spewed out. Then, she fell back into Yu Keqing’s embrace and stopped moving.
Yu Keqing, who had thought her daughter had been saved, suddenly felt as though she had plummeted from heaven into hell.
Frantic, she confronted Shen Baojie, "Divine Doctor Shen, what’s going on? Didn’t you say you had saved Duoduo? What’s happening to her?"
Shen Baojie was stunned.
At a loss for words, he stammered, "This... this shouldn’t be happening?"
"What shouldn’t be? You’ve made my daughter like this, now hurry up and save her!"
"Mrs. Yu, don’t panic, I’ll go make a phone call and invite my master over."
Shen Baojie took out his phone and pretended to dial a number.
"Master, hello!"
"I’m at the central hospital, there’s a patient here who needs you to have a look."
"Shall I drive to pick you up?"
"Yes, yes, yes! I’m on my way!"
After pretending to hang up the phone, Shen Baojie said to Yu Keqing, "Mrs. Yu, don’t panic, I’ll go bring my master over."
Having said that, Shen Baojie walked away with Bai Xianglian.
Yu Keqing was dumbfounded.
She wasn’t foolish and could clearly see that Shen Baojie was not really going to fetch Bian Runze; he was planning to flee!
"Mrs. Yu, the Divine Doctor Shen, for whom you paid a billion, has already fled. Now you have no choice. How about it, will you make do with this little swindler, this scoundrel? What if, by some fluke, I managed to save your daughter?"
"You?" Yu Keqing looked doubtful and uneasy, asking, "Can you really do it?"
"I’m a grown man, why couldn’t I?"
Qin Feng couldn’t be bothered with this woman’s nonsense; Duoduo’s situation was extremely critical. Even if he wanted to flirt with Yu Keqing to close the gap between them, it would have to wait until after he had saved her daughter.
Once he saved her daughter, he would be her savior. Then, even if he flirted with her, at least she wouldn’t be repulsed.
Qin Feng suddenly became very serious and commanded Yu Keqing, "Put Duoduo back on the hospital bed, and then get out of my way!"
Yu Keqing was momentarily stunned, then hurriedly did as told.
"Mr. Liu, go fetch a box of silver needles, some alcohol, and an alcohol lamp, also I need cupping jars."
Without any nurses to assist him, Qin Feng had to borrow Liu Haitao for help.
Liu Haitao, quick and efficient, soon brought Qin Feng the items he needed.
"Light the fire."
For each needle Qin Feng inserted, he placed an upside-down cupping jar over the spot where the silver needle was. It wasn’t long before he had inserted seven needles and applied seven cupping jars on Duoduo, forming the shape of the Big Dipper.
At first, the smoke inside the cupping jars was white.
After a while, the white smoke slowly turned black and began to emit a ’whooshing’ sound.
It sounded like the wind, but the noise actually came from the evil energy.
The scene before her shocked Yu Keqing.
Because she could clearly see strands of black smoke coming out of Duoduo’s pores, trapped inside the seven cupping jars.
Now she was somewhat convinced about the evil energy entwining her daughter as Qin Feng had said.
The evil energy inside Duoduo was almost completely drawn out.
Qin Feng began to remove the cupping jars.
Bang!
Bang, bang, bang...
After the seven cupping jars were removed, the extracted evil energy gathered in mid-air, forming a ferocious human face.
Qin Feng brought his index finger and middle finger together tightly and drew a Golden Talisman in the air with the released Xuanhuang Qi.
"Break!"
Qin Feng yelled loudly, and the Golden Talisman instantly turned into a Golden Sword, thrusting straight towards the ferocious face.
"Bang!"
The face exploded, setting off blinding fireworks.
It caused those present to see a flash of yellow light before their eyes.
When everyone opened their eyes again, the evil energy in mid-air had vanished.
The move Qin Feng used was the Seven Stars Exorcism.
The evil energy hadn’t disappeared; instead, it was absorbed by his Xuanhuang Qi.
