Chapter 957: Removing Bullets
Liu Chan’s face was extremely haggard, sallow, and using the phrase ’yellow-faced and emaciated’ to describe him couldn’t be more apt.
This old thing, his lifestyle was unruly, and he was worn out by women.
"You’re talking nonsense!" Liu Mang shouted at Lin Tian.
"Hey, I didn’t talk nonsense; it’s you. The smell from your mouth is worse than nonsense." Lin Tian held his nose, showing a face of disdain.
"..."
Liu Chan really wanted to strangle Lin Tian right now; he could hardly wait. He wished Lin Tian would go to the Jin Guard’s ward right now, and after Jin Guard’s death, he would immediately take this brat to accompany him in burial!
Liu Chan knew his own situation best; what bad breath? It was entirely fabricated!
This brat’s slander was utterly disgusting! Even if it wasn’t smelly, it became smelly! The frowned expressions of the people around him looked as though they were carved out of the same mold!
Suddenly, Lin Tian stopped. He stood right behind Liu Mang.
"Hey! What are you doing!" Liu Mang got anxious. He instinctively stood up, wanting to change to a position further away from Lin Tian, while casting a look for help to the people around.
He had a feeling that this brat was about to do something ’sinister’ to him!
Everyone ignored it and instead seemed to be watching a joke. Truth be told, Liu Chan’s popularity wasn’t great.
"What else would I do? Didn’t I just say? You have cervical spondylosis, and I just happen to know a bit about massage and bone-setting techniques. I’ll treat you for free. Although it won’t cure the root cause, it can make you feel a bit more comfortable."
With these words, Lin Tian placed his hands on Liu Mang’s shoulders and gently pressed down, making him sit.
At this point, Zhao Xuefeng chimed in with a chuckle: "Yes, Lin Tian’s bone-setting technique is indeed unique. Liu, just enjoy it."
Liu Mang was full of grievances, cursing Lin Tian and Zhao Xuefeng thoroughly in his heart, but still felt it wasn’t enough.
Sitting aside, Nan Qiu curiously watched Lin Tian, naively wanting to see how unique his massage really was.
"It might hurt a little, so bear with it for a moment." Without waiting for Liu Mang to oppose, Lin Tian placed his hands on his shoulders and began the ’massage.’
"Ah~"
The scream was miserable, as if someone had stabbed him.
Lin Tian silently cursed in his heart, "Useless! Just using twenty percent strength, and he’s already in tears."
The onlookers around gasped. What kind of bone-setting massage was this? It was as if he intended to take Liu Mang’s life! What kind of grudge did they have?
Lin Tian ignored Liu Mang’s pitiful screams and kneaded a couple more times.
The result was even louder screams, with Liu Mang barely having the chance to catch his breath.
"Stop!"
Suddenly, a woman, acting as a just heroine passing by, shouted loudly: "I don’t care what personal grudges you have, but it’s best not to resolve it here. I don’t want it affecting the upcoming surgery!"
Lin Tian withdrew his hands from Liu Mang’s shoulders, smiling and saying, "How could it affect the surgery? I’m helping adjust Dr. Liu’s physical state. Ask him if his shoulders feel warm now. Although it’s a bit painful, it’s still comfortable."
Lin Tian lightly patted Liu Mang’s shoulder, smilingly asking, "Isn’t that right, Liu?"
Liu Mang, in pain with his tears and sweat pouring out, his body still twitching. Hearing Lin Tian’s question, he nodded repeatedly, afraid that Lin Tian would pinch him again.
Warm shoulders? Absolute nonsense! The pain nearly made me faint!
Of course, he dared not speak his mind right now and could only suppress it.
Zhao Xuefeng, keeping his head down, maintaining a stern face, tried hard not to laugh out loud. Lin Tian, that brat, is so bad! But, to be fair: Well done!
Nan Qiu became even more perplexed, finding it hard to believe Lin Tian was telling the truth, looking at Liu Mang’s miserable appearance.
Finally suppressing his laughter, Zhao Xuefeng lightly coughed twice and then seriously said, "Lin Tian, over the past few days, we’ve gathered a few times to discuss Jin Guard’s condition. Now, half of the toxins in his body are expelled. Once you remove the bullets, we’ll perform rehabilitation surgery on him."
Lin Tian nodded, indicating his agreement.
Jin Guard was quite old, and at his age, he would naturally have some illnesses. Adding to his frail body, there could be outbreaks. Without rehabilitation surgery, Old Jin might not even wake up.
Next, Lin Tian gathered some details and went with Little Eyes No.7, back to Jin Guard’s hospital room.
Watching Lin Tian’s departing figure, Liu Mang’s heart was truly mixed with emotions. He clenched his fists and silently said to himself, "Brat, this time you’ll accompany Jin Guard in burial!"
When Lin Tian arrived at Jin Guard’s room, inside was the usual scene, with four doctors in white coats caring for Jin Guard and recording his condition.
Lin Tian smiled and nodded at them, silently greeting them.
Jin Guard looked much better than three days ago, his face had some color, his breathing smooth, with only a slightly blackened tongue coating.
A trace of Spiritual Qi entered Jin Guard’s body through his pores, then returned to Lin Tian’s fingertips.
The toxins had decreased by nearly half, but now, without the Clear Wind Evil Qi Elixir, the toxins began attacking Jin Guard’s heart again. If the antidote is not found before then, everything would be in vain.
Alas, it’s all due to the poor quality of the Tang Family’s elixirs.
Putting aside excess thoughts, Lin Tian lifted Jin Guard’s shirt, then placed his hand on his navel, exerting hidden force.
Liu Mang watched the surveillance video inside the ward, his heart racing, breathing growing tense.
By rights, Jin Guard should be experiencing a toxin outbreak, starting to have difficulty breathing now. How come he’s acting as if nothing’s wrong?
The first to notice Liu Mang’s abnormal state was Nan Qiu. She looked at Liu Mang and asked, "Dr. Liu, are you uncomfortable somewhere?"
Hearing her question, Liu Mang got even guiltier. He hurriedly waved his hand, saying, "No, no, I’m fine, just nervous for Jin Guard."
Nan Qiu empathetically replied, "Oh," she was quite nervous herself...
Nearly an hour later, all eight bullets were removed. The level of difficulty had nearly exhausted more than half of Lin Tian’s Spiritual Qi from his Sea of Qi. If he hadn’t reached the Golden Core Stage, this surgery might have needed to be done in two parts.
The most amazing thing was, with each bullet removed, Lin Tian merely applied some ointment to the wound, and none of the eight wounds had major bleeding. This was beyond everyone’s expectations; it was simply incredible!
The most surprised were the four doctors inside the ward. They were fully prepared, with the task of stopping Jin Guard’s bleeding.
Who would have thought... they didn’t have to do anything at all.
