Chapter 153: You Curse Elder Master Li? [30th 9/13]
George's move was very poisonous, giving Xu Hao a difficult choice!
If the elder had no illness, slandering Elder Master Li would be a rather scummy thing to do.
If the elder was sick, then fine, cure him!
Xu Hao laughed and said, "I'm not cursing Mr. Li at all, I'm speaking the truth."
George scoffed and said, "Not cursing? Mr. Li is full of energy, and he moves with spring in his step. How could he possibly be suffering from a serious illness?"
Mark Weining quickly added, "Little Brother Xu, it's better to be more careful with your words. Mr. Li takes his health very seriously. As far as I know, he goes to the big hospital in Hongkong every week for a full-body checkup. He's been doing this for many years without any changes and there's never been any news of him being ill."
Xu Hao said, "My eyes won't deceive me. He himself can't feel his illness because it hasn't reached the critical point yet. But once it does, it could take his life in the blink of an eye."
Xu Hao did not go into detail, for Mr. Li wasn't merely sick; he was the victim of a secret plot.
Someone had planted a Gu poison inside him, and the moment the controller of the Gu wished for his death, Mr. Li would truly lose his life in an instant!
"That's just impossible!"
George sneered, "I've met many traditional Chinese medicine doctors over the years but they're nothing but a bunch of charlatans! Look at what you're saying, which word of it seems true?"
Xu Hao said with a smile, "You've encountered swindlers, and that can't be blamed on you. After all, their tricks are too clever, and you're just a simple organism. It's normal that you can't see through their deceit. Since you don't believe me, I'll show you what a real traditional Chinese medicine doctor is like."
With that said, Xu Hao prepared to walk over to where Chen Hai and the others were.
Seeing this, George suddenly scoffed, "Kid, are you stupid? I know a lot about your Huaya culture. You Huaya people place great importance on rank and hierarchy. I've checked your background, and although I don't know why you suddenly became a nouveau riche, your status is still very low, just a pitiful son-in-law, a poor fool.
And those people, isn't each one of them a powerful figure in their own right? If you just walk over like this, will they say a word to you? I definitely think not."
But before Xu Hao could even lift his leg, Chen Hai and the rest suddenly started walking in this direction.
When George noticed the direction of their movement, he immediately laughed, "Haha, they must be coming for my grandfather, after all, among us, only my grandfather has the most weight."
However, to his astonishment, the first person Chen Hai addressed was not Mark Weining, but Xu Hao!
He enthusiastically introduced Xu Hao to the individuals behind him, "This is our Tiannan's Divine Doctor, Little Brother Xu Hao."
An elder in the crowd laughed and said, "We've long heard that Little Friend Xu Hao cured Old Chen's disease, and it truly shocked all of us old fellas."
Chen Buyi was also in the crowd, now he laughed and said, "This life of mine can be said to have been picked up from King Yama due to Little Friend Xu's help!"
The elder said, "Sigh, if we had known earlier that Little Friend Xu could treat such a disease, those few old buddies of ours might not have passed away."
Chen Buyi let out a long sigh and said, "Don't think too much about it, everyone has their own fate, after all!"
Suddenly, the elder chimed in, "You old scoundrel, you're the lucky one. Back in the day, you got hit by a bullet in the chest and didn't kick the bucket, and here you are still clinging on to life."
Xu Hao suddenly said, "Elder, you might need to rest up properly these days."
The elder instantly replied, "Sigh, I'd like to, but I just can't fall asleep even though I want to. I don't know if it's Old Chen cursing me behind my back or what."
"Stop talking utter nonsense!" Chen Buyi cursed openly, "Why the hell would I curse you for no good reason?"
Xu Hao noticed that all these older generations liked to joke with each other and knew they were on good terms, so he laughed and said, "Actually, it's very simple. You, sir, are suffering from liver depression transforming into fire, and phlegm-heat disturbing the mind, hence your pulse is a bit in disarray. I suspect this is because you've been staying up late recently and you've been under a bit of stress, right?"
"Did you, old Chen, tell him about my situation?" the elder immediately asked.
"Of course not! Why the hell would I care about your health?" Chen Buyi retorted at once.
Chen Hai suddenly turned his head away, and Chen Suyi also covered her face. Not having such a father or grandfather anymore, could they not maintain a bit of a big shot's demeanor?
"Well, that's really strange. Young man, what you're saying is all correct! Lately, I've indeed been under a lot of stress and often staying up late," said the elder.
Xu Hao laughed and said, "You're at an early level, it's not too serious yet. How about this, I'll give you a massage, and tonight you can go back and have a good sleep."
