Chapter 15 Heart-eating insect, red flame needle

Although the words were polite, the refusal was clear.

Huang Haijun exerted great restraint.

If it weren't for Huangfu Shiyue's sake, he would have chased him away long ago.

"Hmph, brat! Madam Huang is such a powerful figure! How can you just tell her to come?" the bald middle-aged man sneered.

Ye Chu spread his hands. "Since Mr. Huang doesn't believe me, then forget it. Sister Shiyue, let's go."

As the Medicine Emperor's disciple, he wouldn't just flatter someone and treat them.

Huangfu Shiyue's face was also grimacing. She had brought Ye Chu here out of good intentions, but instead of being grateful, he was suspicious of everything.

But she truly didn't want to see her good friend Li Jingxuan die.

"Jingxuan, Xiao Chu's medical skills are truly remarkable. You might want to let him see."

Li Jingxuan nodded and said to Huang Haijun, "Hainan, Shiyue also means well. Why not let this young man take a look?"

George also said, "Mr. Huang, why not let this gentleman try and show me the power of Chinese medicine?"

Huang Haijun couldn't refuse any longer and nodded.

"Little brother, I know you want to vindicate Chinese medicine, but treating a patient is no joke. Just treat according to your own abilities."

He specifically warned, fearing that Ye Chu's forced treatment might harm his wife.

Ye Chu didn't reply. If it weren't for Huangfu Shiyue's consideration and the desire to let George, a foreigner, see the power of Chinese medicine, he would have turned and left.

Ye Chu stepped forward to take Li Jingxuan's pulse, then said, "Mrs. Huang's illness is easily treatable. We just need to expel the poisonous insect in her heart."

In fact, he had already used his mental power to detect that she was poisoned.

The reason for taking the pulse was to avoid appearing too shocking.

The moment the word "parasite" was mentioned, everyone's expressions varied.

Huangfu Shiyue looked stunned, while Li Zhengyuan was filled with doubt.

The bald middle-aged man and George were mocking.

"Hahaha, kid, did I hear correctly? They've even created parasites, and you think this is a TV show?"

The bald middle-aged man laughed unrestrainedly, his eyes full of mockery.

George's lips curled up, "Ha, Chinese medicine is a scam after all."

Huang Haijun's face was extremely displeased. "Miss Huangfu, thank you for your concern for Jingxuan, but please be more discerning and don't bring anyone here in the future."

Although Huangfu Shiyue was dissatisfied with the other party's tone, she couldn't argue, so she turned a questioning look at Ye Chu.

"Sister Shiyue, your friend has been infected with a heart-eating insect. While it's currently dormant, it's still passively sucking the heart's blood and energy, causing damage."

Ye Chu said seriously, "We must exterminate the insect as soon as possible, otherwise, if it awakens, the patient's life will be in danger."

The bald middle-aged man angrily rebuked, "What nonsense, boy! You're still a young man in the new world, yet you're spouting such nonsense about insects."

"Mayor, I think this boy has ulterior motives. Perhaps he's here to murder my wife. We should arrest him and interrogate him."

Before Huang Haijun could speak, Li Zhengyuan spoke first, "This young man is not lying. The insect does exist."

Huang Haijun's eyes flickered.

Li Zhengyuan is a national champion; he wouldn't speak nonsense.

"Mr. Li, are you serious?"

Li Zhengyuan nodded. "I once had the good fortune to see a Gu worm. Such things do exist."

At this point, a flicker of doubt crossed his eyes. "But Gu worms are only found in Southern Xinjiang. Jiangdu is so far away. How could Madam be poisoned by them?"

"Mr. Huang, has Madam been to Southern Xinjiang recently?"

Huang Haijun shook his head. "Jingxuan has never been to Southern Xinjiang."

After saying this, he looked eagerly at Ye Chu. "Little brother, was Jingxuan really poisoned by that Heart-Eating Gu?"

He didn't believe Ye Chu's words, but he couldn't help but believe Li Zhengyuan's.

Ye Chu looked at him like an idiot, "What good would it do me to lie to you?"

Huang Haijun's face froze, and the bald middle-aged man immediately scolded him, "How dare you disrespect the mayor?"

"Shut up."

Huang Haijun glared at him, then looked at Ye Chu, forcing a smile. "Little brother, I apologize for my previous offense. I hope you can save Jingxuan."

He now understood. Ye Chu could tell that Li Jingxuan was poisoned, so he must be quite skilled.

After all, even Li Zhengyuan couldn't tell.

Ye Chu snorted and asked Li Zhengyuan, "Old man, do you have any silver needles with you?"

Li Zhengyuan nodded and pulled out a box of silver needles.

The bald middle-aged man spoke again, "Mayor, this guy claims to be a Chinese medicine practitioner, but he doesn't even have any silver needles. He's definitely a liar. Don't trust him."

Ye Chu's eyes narrowed slightly. The other party kept provoking him, really thinking he had no temper.

"You bastard, you've been jumping around here all the time. What will you do if I cure Madam Huang?"

The bald middle-aged man sneered disdainfully. "If you can cure her, I'll kneel down and call you grandpa."

Ye Chu chuckled playfully. "Okay, you said it."

Faced with his confident smile, the bald middle-aged man felt a sudden panic in his heart and glanced at George beside him.

"Don't worry. Madam Huang's heart is severely damaged. There's no other solution except a heart transplant."

George folded his arms confidently, looking at Ye Chu with a playful look.

He wanted to see how the other party would treat her.

Ye Chu ignored the others and approached Li Jingxuan, smiling soothingly. "Madam, it might be a little painful. Just bear with it."

Li Jingxuan smiled faintly. "It's okay, little brother, go ahead."

Ye Chu opened the silver needle box and picked up each needle with two fingers.

Swish, swish, swish...

Silver needles flew through the air, piercing the acupuncture points around Li Jingxuan's heart.

All they saw were afterimages.

By the time they came to their senses, Ye Chu had already placed the needles.

Li Zhengyuan's eyes widened, his breathing slightly rapid.

Based on this single move alone, he was certain that Ye Chu's medical skills were undoubtedly superior to his.

Invisible strands of Qi appeared from Ye Chu's fingertips, connecting to the ends of the silver needles.

With a gentle dance of his fingertips, the silver needles began to vibrate softly.

Over time, the silver needles slowly turned red.

A burning aura permeated the air.

Li Jingxuan's face was etched with pain, beads of sweat forming on her forehead.

Huang Haijun was nervous, but he dared not interrupt.

Huangfu Shiyue's beautiful eyes widened slightly, startled by Ye Chu's skill.

Even George and the bald middle-aged man, who had looked disdainful, opened their mouths wide, their eyes filled with disbelief.

With a sudden jolt, several flames burst forth from the tail of the silver needle.

Later, they transformed into streams of fire, flowing along the needle and into Li Jingxuan's body.

"Red Flame Divine Needle! Could this be the Red Flame Divine Needle?"

Li Zhengyuan exclaimed, his eyes filled with disbelief and unconcealed enthusiasm.

The others looked at him, but Li Zhengyuan ignored them, his gaze fixed on Ye Chu as he administered the acupuncture.

It was no wonder he was so excited. The Red Flame Divine Needle was the unique acupuncture technique invented by the legendary Medicine Emperor.

There was no doubt that the young man before him had a close relationship with the mysterious Medicine Emperor.

Suddenly, he thought of Jiang Junyao, who had just woken up.

Not long ago, he had heard that the Jiang family was seeking a son-in-law to bring good luck, and Jiang Junyao had miraculously woken up, and he had been puzzled.

Now he finally understood the reason.

Jiang Junyao must have been revived by Ye Chu.

"Ah!"

Li Jingxuan screamed, her face etched with agony.

Ye Chu shouted softly, "Get out of here!"
