"Li Yang?" Hearing the voice, Shui Xiang immediately showed a look of surprise and looked towards Li Yang.
The crowd was also astonished. "Young Master Li, what did you just say?"
"I said I've come to treat this elder," Li Yang stated clearly. "Please make way."
"Young Master Li, you are truly kind-hearted, but please don't be foolish!" The crowd was both surprised and impressed by his words.
Someone kindly reminded him, "This old man looks like he's beyond saving. Even if you intervene, you might not be able to cure him. You could even be blamed for causing his death and end up serving seven or eight years in prison."
"Yes, Young Master Li, please don't be too kind-hearted."
"All of you, shut up!"
Qi Yuanshan shouted, pushing aside those next to him. He then smirked at Li Yang, "Young Master Li, your character is noble, you absolutely cannot stand by and watch someone die!"
"And I believe you can definitely save this old man! Quickly, quickly, please proceed!"
"You don't need to tell me, I will save people," Li Yang said. He took a few steps forward and knelt beside the old man.
Qi Yuanshan was overjoyed, thinking, "Hahaha, this foolish kid actually stepped up to save someone!"
"Now it's perfect, this old fellow's life or death has nothing to do with me anymore!"
"Despicable scoundrel, utterly shameless!" Seeing his gleeful expression, everyone felt a genuine contempt for this fellow.
Shui Xiang didn't have time for contempt. Her jade-like hands clenched tightly, her eyes fixed solely on Li Yang, filled with worry for him. "Li Yang, if you need anything, I'll prepare it for you immediately."
"Thank you, Sister Shui. If it's possible, please pour me a cup of strong tea that isn't too hot to drink," Li Yang said with a smile.
Shui Xiang nodded and personally went to pour the tea. Li Yang asked for strong tea, so she brought an entire pot of tea leaves to brew it. Li Yang asked for one cup, and she brought a large basin, fearing it wouldn't be enough and would hinder Li Yang's efforts.
Seeing her like this, many were astonished. Those who understood quickly grasped the situation, realizing that this beautiful lady Shui's heart had completely fallen for this Young Master Li.
Qi Yuanshan, in particular, saw this scene and his entire face turned ashen, as if he had eaten a fly. He turned completely green. "Damn kid, since when did your relationship with Boss Shui become this close?"
He glanced at Li Yang, a cold smile appearing on his face. "Even if your relationship is good, a man serving seven or eight years in prison can't withstand anything, not even a chaste woman. Heh heh!"
"Li Yang, the strong tea is here," Shui Xiang said.
Li Yang turned his head and was surprised, then couldn't help but laugh, "Sister Shui, I only needed one cup, this is too much."
"More is always better than less," Shui Xiang replied.
"That's true."
Li Yang smiled, opened the old man's mouth, and poured some strong tea in. Secretly, he circulated his nameless heart technique, channeling his true qi into the old man's head.
As soon as the black qi in the old man's head came into contact with the true qi, it was immediately routed, fleeing in disarray. Before long, the true qi not only annihilated all the black qi but also cleared the meridians in the old man's head, unblocking his blood and qi.
"Uh,"
The old man slowly opened his eyes, looking around hazily, and took a few deep breaths.
"Oh, he's awake!"
"Everyone, look quickly, this elder has woken up!"
"What an incredibly potent basin of strong tea! It actually has such miraculous effects."
The crowd exclaimed. Seeing the near-dead person improve, many faces were lit up with happy smiles. "Young Master Li is amazing!"
"Divine doctor, divine doctor!"
"Cough, cough," the old man looked at everyone blankly and asked suspiciously, "What, what happened to me just now?"
"Elder, you suddenly fell ill and collapsed on the ground. Fortunately, this Young Master Li, no, this Divine Doctor Li, stepped in to save you, pulling you back from the gates of hell!" the crowd immediately told him.
The old man looked at Li Yang, seeing his young and handsome face, and couldn't help but ask in surprise, "You saved me?"
"It was just a small effort," Li Yang said with a smile, extending a hand. "Elder, the ground is cold, you might catch a cold. Please get up and talk."
"Yes, thank you, Divine Doctor Li." The elder grabbed his hand and slowly stood up, saying with gratitude.
Li Yang smiled, "You're welcome, it's good that you're alright."
"Divine Doctor Li, this old man doesn't have anything good on him today. Please accept this money." The elder fumbled in his pocket, took out a gold card, and pressed it into his hand.
Li Yang shook his head and said, "No need, elder."
"No, you must accept it, otherwise, this old man will kneel down and beg you to accept it." The elder said, preparing to kneel.
Li Yang quickly supported him, saying, "Please don't, elder. I'll accept the card."
"Haha, that's right," the elder said with a happy laugh.
He had expected that Li Yang wouldn't let him, an old man, kneel. "Divine Doctor Li, I'd like to invite you for a meal later. May I have your contact information?"
"Really, there's no need to be so polite, elder." Li Yang smiled, but fearing he would kneel again, he gave him his contact information.
The old man immediately gave him his contact information as well. "My surname is Tian. Divine Doctor Li, you can just note me as Old Tian."
"Alright, Old Tian," Li Yang nodded and smiled.
Old Tian smiled and said, "Then I won't disturb you any further, Divine Doctor Li. I'll be going back."
"Old Tian, please take care," Li Yang nodded, watching him walk away.
The crowd smiled and crowded around. "Young Master Li, we didn't expect you to have this skill! You're a million times better than that Director Qi. We misjudged you earlier, please accept our apologies."
"Ignorance is not a crime, everyone doesn't need to mind," Li Yang said with a slight smile. He turned to look for Qi Yuanshan, only to see that fellow had already slunk to the doorway.
Seeing him like that, the crowd sneered dismissively, "So this guy still knows how to save face."
"Young Master Li, would you be willing to sell me this basin of strong tea?" Some people stared at the basin of strong tea in Shui Xiang's hand, their eyes flashing.
They had all seen clearly just now that Old Tian had recovered from bleeding from all seven orifices after just one sip of the strong tea. There must be something extraordinary about it.
Li Yang was taken aback and quickly waved his hands, "Everyone, there's nothing special about this strong tea. It's purely ordinary strong tea. I was just adapting to the local conditions and prescribing the right medicine."
"Even if you buy it and drink it, it won't bring the dead back to life."
"We understand what Young Master Li is saying, but please name your price for this basin of strong tea?" the crowd said with smiles, saying they understood but still believing there was more to it.
Li Yang was exasperated and amused. "Since that's the case, you can offer whatever you think is fair."
