Chapter 41: Make Him Run a Few Laps
"I warn you not to spout nonsense here. If you continue with your baseless talk, I’ll throw you out!"
The person speaking was the doctor, a prestigious figure in the medical community of South Sea. He had been taking care of Elder Li’s illness all this time, and now Elder Li was almost recovered and could get out of bed soon. But this young man bluntly claimed Elder Li was in life-threatening danger, which was tantamount to questioning his medical skill right in front of him!
"I’m sorry, I also understand medical skill. I know well about his condition. If you don’t believe me, there’s nothing I can do," Chen Tianlong, seeing the angry glares directed at him from all around, could only helplessly spread his hands.
"Haha, you understand medical skill?"
Dr. Yao sneered, "What kind of medical skill do you understand? You’re just a little brat."
As soon as these words were uttered, the room fell silent. Almost everyone except Lin Wushuang didn’t believe Chen Tianlong knew anything about medical skill.
Even Elder Li thought the same; he simply did not believe Chen Tianlong understood medical skill.
"Elder Li, Tianlong’s medical skill is very impressive. You should let him take a look." Seeing this, Lin Wushuang became a bit anxious. Chen Tianlong had come here only because she had earnestly pleaded with him, and now these people were casting doubts on him.
Upon hearing this, Li Hongliang took a deep breath. From the young man’s eyes, he couldn’t detect any sign of lying. After all, Elder Li was a jade connoisseur, and he was quite precise whether in assessing objects or people.
"Young man, how do you think my illness should be treated?" Elder Li asked leisurely.
"How about this? If you don’t believe me, you can come find me again in three days. But by then, it won’t be as easy to treat," Chen Tianlong smiled faintly, without any trace of emotion.
"Boy, if you dare spout nonsense again, I will..."
"Let’s not say anything for now," Li Hongliang directly interrupted the doctor and then, with a slightly tense expression, asked Chen Tianlong, "How confident are you in being able to cure me?"
Chen Tianlong pondered for a moment, then replied, "If it’s today, I’m 100% sure. Three days later, 50% sure."
"Hiss~"
Upon hearing this, Li Hongliang gasped. If what he said was true, then missing today would mean missing a chance at survival.
In fact, Elder Li himself felt something was off with his body. Just a couple of days ago, he had felt like he was on the brink of death, but in the past two days, he suddenly became clear-headed and energetic. Thinking about it now, could it be just as the young man said, a sign of his last burst of vitality?
Thinking of this, Li Hongliang made a decision: "How can I be sure that after you treat me, my condition will improve by itself or be cured by you?"
Chen Tianlong furrowed his brow. After talking for so long, they still didn’t trust him.
"Yes, Tianlong, do you have a way to prove it?" The young lady, noticing Chen Tianlong’s impatience, hurriedly asked.
Sure enough, when Chen Tianlong heard even the young lady say this, he took a deep breath and said, "If you want confirmation, I have a method!"
"Young man, what method do you have? Just tell us!" Mr. Li said.
"Please follow my instructions now, Mr. Li," Chen Tianlong replied with a faint smile.
Li Hongliang nodded and gestured for him to continue. Chen Tianlong, receiving the instruction, said, "Now, please get out of bed, Mr. Li, and run around the room ten times!"
"Boy, what are you doing, daring to toy with our Elder Li!" Zhang Cuishan finally couldn’t take it anymore. At first, he truly thought this guy had some kind of method, but he actually asked Elder Li to run.
This was simply playing around with people. What did he understand about medical skills anyway!
At that moment, Li Hongliang was also stunned and a bit furious at this unexpected demand.
"Get lost!"
Seeing this, with a loud shout, Zhang Cuishan, who had long been unable to restrain himself, angrily took action. Though he was over fifty, his moves were exceptionally agile. Seeing Elder Li’s look of disgust, he pounced like a tiger.
His two hands turned into eagle claws, aiming straight for Chen Tianlong’s shoulders.
In fact, Chen Tianlong had already noticed Zhang Cuishan’s good moves, but that was only impressive to ordinary people. Faced with himself, Zhang Cuishan was just like a child who had just learned to walk.
At that moment, Chen Tianlong moved.
"Hah!"
A low call came from Chen Tianlong’s mouth. His originally lean body suddenly straightened, stepping and twisting his waist, his movements crisp and neat. Before Zhang Cuishan’s claws could reach him, he slammed out a kick!
"Bang!"
A dull sound rang out as Chen Tianlong’s leg swept powerfully. Zhang Cuishan barely had time to let out a surprised cry before being kicked in the chest by Chen Tianlong. It felt like his chest had taken a heavy hammer blow, and his whole body flew out, crashing into the wardrobe and then onto the ground.
Pff!
Just hitting the ground, Zhang Cuishan opened his mouth and spat out a mouthful of blood, clearly losing his combat ability.
However, he didn’t have the time to care about his injury, instead, he raised his head sharply, staring at Chen Tianlong in shock.
Only now did Zhang Cuishan realize why he felt a dangerous aura around Chen Tianlong. As it turned out, this person was an expert hiding his true abilities all along!
But this expert seemed too young!
In that moment, Zhang Cuishan was filled with shock, and so was Elder Li in bed, his eyes widening suddenly.
Remember, though Zhang Cuishan was nominally his housekeeper, he also served as his personal bodyguard. Elder Li knew Zhang Cuishan’s capabilities inside out.
But he never expected Zhang Cuishan to be sent flying by a single kick from Chen Tianlong!
Who exactly was this Chen Tianlong?
At this time, Chen Tianlong still maintained the stance after kicking Zhang Cuishan. The level of leg lift he performed was beyond what ordinary people could do, and even if they could, they couldn’t hold it for so long without putting the foot down. Yet, Chen Tianlong supported his entire body with one leg, motionless, as stable as a rock!
Hiss!
Suddenly, everyone in the room collectively gasped, realizing the predicament only now.
Especially the doctor, who was scared to the point of almost biting his tongue. He was Elder Li’s personal physician and had witnessed many of Zhang Cuishan’s battles. To him, Zhang Cuishan was the strongest person.
But now, the War God in his mind was kicked flying by this country bumpkin called Chen Tianlong! The doctor couldn’t believe his eyes, but it was a fact he couldn’t deny.
Seeing the room under his control, Chen Tianlong remained emotionless. He had been pent up with frustration all along since he stepped in. These people had consistently belittled and mocked him, making him feel uncomfortable.
"Alright, if you want to wait for death, I don’t mind. Wushuang, I’m sorry, I’m leaving!" Chen Tianlong couldn’t stay any longer. After saying a word to the young lady, he stepped forward, ready to exit.
