Liu Zixuan looked at Huang Youcai and then at Liu Mazi, and laughed, "Remember, good things are worth the wait. Don't just look at the moment; look further ahead."

After saying this, Liu Zixuan walked alone towards downstairs.

When he saw the person standing in the hall, he was taken aback for a moment, then walked up to him, "Old Niu, I didn't expect it to be you!"

"Oh, it's Mr. Liu!" Old Niu was a bit surprised.

The person standing in front of Liu Zixuan was none other than the owner of the stone gambling shop from before, Old Niu.

Back when Liu Zixuan first met him, he had already noticed some signs of illness, but he didn't expect this Old Niu to actually come in person!

After greeting him to sit down, he asked, "Feeling unwell?"

"Don't mention it, I constantly feel weak all over, can't quite say what's wrong, but any little work tires me out, and at night, my whole body just aches," Old Niu sighed.

"Heard there's a new clinic and hospital here, so I thought I'd check it out. But who would have thought..."

"What happened?" Liu Zixuan asked.

"Mr. Liu, please don't mind, before coming here, I went to the hospital on the west side first, but they did a check-up and found nothing. So I've come here."

Old Niu was a bit embarrassed, after all, Hao Shuai's hospital couldn't diagnose him, that's why he came here.

Liu Zixuan shook his head, "It's fine, choosing where to go is your right as a patient."

"I didn't expect you to be a doctor too," Old Niu chuckled.

"Hahaha. You wouldn't think I'm just someone making money from stone gambling, would you?"

"Not at all."

"Old Niu, what brings you here?"

At this moment, Huang Youcai and Liu Mazi came downstairs, clearly Huang Youcai knew Old Niu.

Old Niu was also surprised, "Isn't this Boss Huang? Are you here for a check-up too?"

"No, I'm just accompanying my little brother here," Huang Youcai patted Liu Mazi's shoulder and laughed, "Old Niu, let me tell you, Liu the Divine Doctor's medical skill truly is unparalleled. Whenever I fell ill, I would go to him, and the cure was immediate. Moreover, my little brother here, whose leg was crippled for years, got treated by Liu the Divine Doctor and it's already improving, he'll be fully recovered within a week!"

"I know Liu Mazi," Old Niu chuckled, thinking to himself that Liu really had some impressive skills, to make Huang Youcai a regular client.

Then he turned to Liu Zixuan and said, "Then I'll trouble Dr. Liu to take a look at me."

"Alright."

Liu Zixuan sat beside Old Niu and took his pulse. After a while, he furrowed his brows, "Old Niu, your illness is a bit strange."

"I think it's strange too, can't describe the discomfort, just lacking energy, and the body aches at night," Old Niu became nervous.

Liu Zixuan nodded, "This condition is referred to as neuropathy in traditional Chinese medicine; Western medicine might call it a stroke precursor."

"Stroke! Hemiplegia?" Old Niu immediately felt a little scared. Thinking carefully, wasn't this how people with hemiplegia felt in the early stages!

He immediately grew anxious, grabbing Liu Zixuan's hand, "Can it be treated?"

"What an unnecessary question, there's no illness that can't be treated here at Liu the Divine Doctor!" Huang Youcai said confidently.

Liu Zixuan followed suit and said, "It can be treated."

"That's great!"

Old Niu grinned, feeling relieved, "It's still our ancestors' passed down traditional Chinese medicine that's reliable. I went to the western hospital, had seven tests done, spent 9,000 yuan, and they couldn't find any illness."

"You old guy deserve it, there's a divine doctor here and you went over there," Huang Youcai cast a disdainful glance.

Old Niu scratched his head awkwardly, "Oh, this..."

"That was indeed a waste of money."

Liu Zixuan knew Old Niu felt awkward, so he gave him a way out, took out the Silver Needle, and sent Huang Youcai upstairs to bring down two sets of herbal medicine he had prepared.

He said to Old Niu, "Take off your shirt."

"Alright." Old Niu cooperatively started taking off his clothes.

Liu Zixuan began acupuncture on Old Niu's back.

Stroke is closely related to body functions and nerves, and the central spine on the back is the place where nerves are most complex, with all the acupoints converging here.

Liu Zixuan picked up the Silver Needle and applied it to several acupoints like Dazhu, Shendao, Shentang, Tianzong, and Zhiyang, gently twisting the needle, with a faint golden energy flowing in from those needles, which was Liu Zixuan's Dark Internal Power.

He infused his Inner Strength into the unhealthy meridians, restoring them to normal, effectively treating the root cause.

After a while, Liu Zixuan retracted the Silver Needle, smiled at Old Niu, "Done!"

"Is that it?" Old Niu asked incredulously.

"Feel your body."

Old Niu stood up somewhat skeptically, walked around a bit, and felt a cool sensation circulating through his previously sore limbs, making him feel invigorated.

He felt full of vitality rather than weak as he was before.

Eyes wide, astonished, "It worked so fast! No wonder Boss Huang calls you Liu the Divine Doctor!"

"Of course, the person I recommend can't be bad, right?" Huang Youcai saw Old Niu's complexion returning to normal with color, and so he proudly beamed.

Liu Zixuan, always someone who continues to amaze him!

Old Niu gratefully bowed to Liu Zixuan, "Thank you so much, Liu the Divine Doctor."

"It's what I should do. Take this medicine home, divide it into three doses; boil three bowls into one to drink. Also, persist in taking a hot bath every day to expel the waste from your meridians."

"Alright, alright," Old Niu nodded excitedly, then asked, "How much do I owe you?"

"Five hundred!" Liu Zixuan held up five fingers.

"Only... only five hundred?" Old Niu was a little incredulous.

For stroke treatment nowadays, it's a serious matter; slightly negligent would mean hemiplegia; the rest of life would be doomed, and the treatment costs would be tens of thousands.

Yet Liu Zixuan only charged five hundred!

Actually, Liu Zixuan had already made a profit; the needles were his, the herbs were gathered from the mountains, not costing him anything; five hundred equals pure profit, which is the benefit of traditional Chinese medicine!

Old Niu regretted a bit, almost regretted it to his core, should've gone earlier instead of wasting 9,000 at Hao Shuai's hospital!

Having paid Liu Zixuan, he laughed, "Dr. Liu—I mean, Liu the Divine Doctor—rest assured, when I go back, I'll surely give you a good promotion. If you need anything, feel free to visit my shop; there will definitely be treasures you'll like."

"Definitely," Liu Zixuan smiled.

"Zixuan, there's more patients coming, and quite a few, all from the west hospital," Liu Mazi said as he walked past the door.

"Open the door and welcome them!" Liu Zixuan's lips curved up; he always said, once the clinic opens, he's not afraid of having no patients.
