"This..."
Hu Xiaobei's kick was just too fast!
So fast that everyone was left in shock!
By the time they came to their senses, they smelled a pungent, foul odor!
"What is that smell!"
"Yes, what is it!"
"It's disgustingly bad!"
While saying this, all the Chinese Medicine practitioners looked around.
They quickly realized that the nauseating sour stench was coming from the pool of black blood vomited out by the man Hu Xiaobei had just kicked!
"It seems that Doctor Hu didn't kick him out of revenge!"
"That's right!"
"This is some kind of special treatment!"
While everyone was thinking this, the man Hu Xiaobei had just sent flying got up excitedly!
After taking a deep breath and feeling the changes in his condition, he exclaimed excitedly, "Doctor Hu, I feel so much better, thank you, Doctor Hu!"
Just a moment ago, after being kicked away by Hu Xiaobei, he thought it was revenge and was quite annoyed!
But now, he realized he had totally misjudged the situation!
Because he truly felt that his whole body had rejuvenated by many years!
Watching his absolutely thrilled and excited expression, Hu Xiaobei nodded indifferently!
Just as he was about to say something, Hu Xiaobei suddenly saw all the old Chinese Medicine practitioners eagerly looking at him!
Feeling a bit uneasy under their gaze, Hu Xiaobei narrowed his eyes and asked indifferently, "What is it?"
Hearing Hu Xiaobei's inquiry, they exchanged glances, and quickly, expressed their intentions clearly!
"Doctor Hu, we want to take you as our Master!"
"That's right!"
"Please be our Master!"
Water flows downwards; people strive for higher positions!
After truly witnessing Hu Xiaobei's strength, knowing that his abilities were more than a hundred times stronger than their own, they wished to take him as their Master!
"Stop it!"
Hearing their chatter, Hu Xiaobei didn't hesitate and immediately refused!
Hu Xiaobei knew that these people were older than himself, and to really take them on would be nothing but trouble...
"This..."
Rejected straightforwardly by Hu Xiaobei, they were dumbfounded!
Seeing their stunned expressions, Hu Xiaobei frowned and said, "Since we've met today, it must be fate. So, if anyone has any doubts, feel free to ask me!"
"Hmm?"
Upon hearing Hu Xiaobei's words, they were slightly taken aback, but soon their eyes lit up...
And just like that, everyone swarmed around Hu Xiaobei with fervor...
...
Mayor Wu Yuanwei from Big River Town saw Hu Xiaobei completely surrounded by all the Chinese Medicine practitioners, and he laughed excitedly!
He knew that bringing Hu Xiaobei here had been the absolute right choice!
As he was thinking this, he heard footsteps and turned around, trembling with excitement!
Because he saw Shen Youwei approaching him!
"Mayor Shen!"
After saying that, he heard a nonchalant inquiry, "Hmm! You are Wu Yuanwei? The Mayor of Big River Town?"
Without hesitation, Wu Yuanwei quickly nodded, "Yes, Mayor Shen, it is me!"
"This time, I truly have to thank you. If it weren't for you finding Doctor Hu, who knows what might have happened to my father!"
"Mayor Shen, you are too kind!"
"Not at all! I'm speaking the truth! Alright, let's leave it at this for today, we'll have a good chat some other time!"
"Yes! Yes! Of course!"
Wu Yuanwei said excitedly, then watched as Shen Youwei walked away...
"This might just be the most glorious moment in my life!"
Wu Yuanwei thought to himself with excitement as he looked at Hu Xiaobei, who was surrounded by everyone.
He knew that such a moment of glory was all thanks to Hu Xiaobei...
...
A short distance away, after seeing Shen Youwei and Wu Yuanwei chat for a few moments, everyone's eyes widened in complete shock!
Jealousy!
At that moment, everyone was insanely jealous of Wu Yuanwei!
As they felt this jealousy, they all looked towards Hu Xiaobei.
They all knew that Wu Yuanwei's moment of glory was all thanks to Hu Xiaobei's influence...
"Damn it! If only I had known how amazing Hu Xiaobei was, I would have built a good relationship with him earlier!"
"Exactly!"
"Sigh..."
Thinking back to when they had ridiculed Hu Xiaobei, they wished they could slap themselves hard, knowing they had missed a golden opportunity to climb the social ladder...
...
Half an hour later, everyone except Hu Xiaobei and Wu Yuanwei had left!
Grateful to Shen Youwei for helping him out earlier, Hu Xiaobei quickly said, "Mayor Shen, thank you. If it wasn't for you, I would have been swamped by them!"
Earlier, Hu Xiaobei had been so besieged by everyone's fervent questions, he was left completely dry-mouthed!
Luckily, Mayor Shen stepped in and they finally left...
"Doctor Hu, you're too polite! You are my father's lifesaver, and hence my own. By the way, do you need me to give you a ride back?"
Hearing his earnest offer, Hu Xiaobei waved his hand and said, "No need! Mayor Shen, just take good care of the old man. Although his condition isn't serious now, there's still a possibility of complications!"
"Understood! I will be careful!"
"Good! I'll come back once I've gathered the medicinal herbs. It will take at most three to five days."
"Alright!"
And so, Hu Xiaobei left with the mayor seeing him off...
...
After returning to town, Wu Yuanwei looked at Hu Xiaobei and said earnestly, "Xiaobei, I really have to thank you for this time!"
Hearing Wu Yuanwei's sincere thanks, Hu Xiaobei replied softly, "Why thank me?"
"If it weren't for you, I probably would never have had the chance to get noticed by Mayor Shen Youwei in my entire life."
"Haha, you're too kind!"
"It's not kindness, it's the truth! If you ever need anything in Big River Town, just let me know. As long as I can do it, I certainly will!"
"Okay! Mayor Wu, I need to go back to find more medicinal herbs, so I won't stay any longer!"
"Right! Finding the medicinal herbs is important!"
"Yes!"
After saying this, Hu Xiaobei drove back to Xiaohe Village!
After Hu Xiaobei left, Wu Yuanwei took a deep breath!
Soon, his face glowing with happiness, he walked cheerfully back to his office...
...
On the drive back, Hu Xiaobei pondered over the illness of Shen Tianhai.
His condition was extremely complicated!
Previously, when Hu Xiaobei had taken his pulse, he had found many damaged areas in his body!
At that time, Hu Xiaobei had infused his body with Nine Wood True Qi, intending to heal all the damaged areas.
In Hu Xiaobei's opinion, if all the injured parts were healed, that would be the end of it!
But soon, Hu Xiaobei realized he had oversimplified matters; there was a very strange energy in his Dantian!
After he had healed the damaged parts of his body, that strange energy continued to wreak havoc...
This made Hu Xiaobei realize that it was absolutely impossible to just use the Nine Wood True Qi to make a full recovery.
The main issue wasn't the physical damage but that strange energy...
After confirming this, at the last moment before he finished, Hu Xiaobei secretly wrapped a bit of that strange energy with Nine Wood True Qi, planning to study it carefully upon his return.
"Witch Qi?"
Once home, Hu Xiaobei studied the strange energy he had brought back intensely, a trace of seriousness flickering in his eyes...
