Chapter 12: This Is the Miracle Doctor

What a bold statement.

Mu Cheng suppressed his anger and started to make a call. “Yes, we’re at the underground market. Come over quickly.”

After hanging up, he said coldly, “Miss, don’t think that just because our master bought an ancient coin from you, you can…”

Before he could finish speaking, he heard the girl say, “He’s arrhythmic. The pain in the anterior part of his heart has intensified and has already spread to his left shoulder and abdomen.”

“Smoking has caused shadows in his lungs and congestion in his respiratory tract.”

In the end, Ying Zijin looked up. “From midnight to eight in the morning is the peak of his illness. He just had surgery a month ago, so he shouldn’t have come out so late.”

Mu Cheng was shocked and in disbelief. “You…”

She hit the nail on the head!

Including the time of the surgery!

Before he could recover from his shock, he heard the girl say calmly, “Silver needles.”

Mu Cheng didn’t have time to think about how she knew that he had silver needles on him. He quickly handed over the box containing the silver needles.

Ying Zijin opened the box. As she held the seven silver needles in her hand, she was about to take action.

Seeing this, Mu Cheng couldn’t help but remind, “At most, you can use four silver needles at a time.”

When Ying Zijin heard this, she finally looked at him.

There was no emotion in her misty eyes, and one couldn’t discern her emotions.

“Be quiet.”

“I-I’m sorry.” Mu Cheng was a little embarrassed, but he didn’t think there was anything wrong with it.

In the past, when he saw Miss Meng treating Mu Heqing, she only used four silver needles at the same time.

He even asked about it and found out that there was basically no one in the ancient medical world who could use seven silver needles at the same time.

To think about it, it made sense. People only had a pair of hands, so how could they use seven silver needles?

But in the next second, Mu Cheng couldn’t help but widen his eyes.

The seven silver needles in the girl’s hand formed a series of afterimages as one acupuncture point after another was inserted and pulled out extremely quickly.

Mu Cheng tried his best to see the exact position of the silver needle, but he realized that he couldn’t see it clearly at all, so he was a little shocked.

What kind of speed was this?

After Ying Zijin inserted the last acupuncture point, Mu Heqing, who was lying on the ground, finally caught his breath. The bruises on his face slowly receded, and his face regained its rosy color.

The entire treatment process took less than a minute.

Ying Zijin put the silver needles back into the box.

She got up and stood with one hand in her pocket as she said calmly, “It’s done.”

Mu Cheng was still in a daze.

Even Miss Meng would feel tired after treating Mu Heqing. This…

“Cough, cough, cough!” Mu Heqing suddenly coughed and opened his eyes with great effort.

Previously, he was in a semi-conscious state and could still sense the outside world.

After calming his breathing, Mu Heqing slowly stood up with Mu Cheng’s help.

After he coughed a few more times with a serious expression, he said with a gentle gaze and soothing tone, “Young lady, you saved my life, so if you need any help, just let me know.”

He could clearly feel that his heart was much better than before.

Such medical skills were probably unparalleled in the ancient medical world.

“There’s no need.” Ying Zijin didn’t care. “It’s no big deal.”

It had been a long time since she had treated someone, but it seemed that her ability hadn’t deteriorated. In the future, if she lacked money, she could use this skill to make a living.

Mu Heqing didn’t insist. After he thought for a moment, he took out a jade pendant and said seriously, “Then keep this well. If there’s anything, as long as it’s not a crime, I’ll definitely help.”

Mu Cheng was shocked.

This wasn’t an ordinary promise. This was the promise of the Mu family’s head.

Ying Zijin didn’t want to accept it, but when she saw the word “Mu” on the jade pendant, her gaze froze for a moment. It was unknown what she thought of, but she still accepted it in the end. “Alright.”

Only then was Mu Heqing satisfied. He smiled and said, “I wonder if I might know your name?”

It was rare to meet such an extraordinary girl, so he had to get to know her.

After Ying Zijin pondered for a moment, she said, “My surname is Ying.”

Ying?

Hearing this surname, Mu Cheng immediately thought of the Ying family, one of the four great clans in Hucheng. After all, the surname Ying wasn’t common.

Due to her noble aura, Miss Ying didn’t look like she came from an ordinary family, but the Ying family…

Mu Cheng frowned.

Of course, they had come into contact with the Ying family before, but with the Ying family’s insignificant power, how could they nurture a young lady who knew ancient medicine?

Mu Heqing also thought of it, but he didn’t ask further. He just smiled and said, “Miss Ying, are you interested in going to the Imperial Capital with me?”

Ying Zijin raised her eyebrows slightly in surprise, but said, “Not at the moment.”

Right now, she only wanted to retire, plant flowers, raise pigs, and be a happy slacker.

“That’s good, that’s good.” Mu Heqing nodded. “If you ever want to come, remember to contact me, Mu Cheng.”

After Mu Cheng went forward and handed over a business card, he was a little ashamed as he said, “I’m sorry, Miss Ying, for having doubts about you previously and offending you. I’m sorry.”

“There’s no need. There’s no trust between strangers.” Ying Zijin nodded as she said, “I’ll take my leave now.”

Upon hearing this, Mu Cheng felt even more ashamed.

He wasn’t even as insightful as a young lady.

After watching the girl leave, Mu Heqing was still standing at the same spot. After a long silence, he suddenly asked, “Mu Cheng, what do you think about arranging a marriage?”

Before Mu Cheng could answer, he said to himself, “Forget it, all those brats are disappointing and are unworthy of the little girl. It’s better not to harm her.”

Mu Cheng was speechless.

How could anyone mock their own grandchildren like this?

“What a pity. Why isn’t she the daughter of the Mu family? If she was…” Mu Heqing sighed as he instructed, “Stay in Hucheng for a few days.”

After it stopped snowing, the sky cleared up and the sun was shining brightly at noon.

In the distance, clouds lingered in the blue sky and white birds flew up and down. There was a rare sense of serenity.

In the Ying family’s old residence.

After Zhong Manhua glanced at the third floor, she asked with a frown, “Second Miss hasn’t woken up yet?”

The butler shook his head. “No.”

“It’s already noon, but she’s still not awake?” Zhong Manhua said with displeasure, “Wake her up and ask her to come down to eat.”

The butler was about to leave when the phone in the living room suddenly rang.

After he went forward to take a look, he said, “Madam, it’s a call from the capital.”

Zhong Manhua’s expression turned serious. “Give it to me.”

The butler handed it over respectfully and waited by the side.

It was unknown what the other party said, but Zhong Manhua nodded repeatedly. After hanging up, she said with a smile, “The Mu family wants to send Chenzhou over, probably in May.”

The butler was surprised. “Did something big happen to the Mu family?”

The Mu family was developing well in the Imperial Capital. Why would they suddenly send one of their heirs to Hucheng?

“I don’t know, but you have to treat him well.” After Zhong Manhua poured a cup of tea elegantly, she said, “We have to start preparing now. In a while, send someone to order furniture and vacate the second house on the right on the third floor.”

Hucheng’s four major families couldn’t afford to offend the Mu Family of the Imperial Capital. They had to build a good relationship with the Mu Family.

“Madam, I think it’s better not to let Young Master Chenzhou stay in the old residence.” After the butler hesitated for a moment, he reminded her, “Second Miss still doesn’t know the etiquette of noble families. If she offends…”
