Chapter 371: Chapter 371 Bet
Qi Shanghai remained silent, his heart entangled in so conflict. He didn’t know the extent of Chen Dashan’s dical skill, nor did he dare to believe his claims. Yet he worried that what Dashan said was true—if sothing were to happen to the old man, wouldn’t that spell disaster?
"Mr. Qi, as it happens, Mr. Song brought over the Yellow Lotus Essence today. Since this young friend claims the Yellow Lotus Essence is useless, why don’t we give it a try?" Divine Doctor Sun shook his head, brimming with confidence.
Chen Dashan felt amused inside: "Give it a try? Clothes can be tried on, but the Yellow Lotus Essence is a highly toxic substance that can kill people. You say ’give it a try’ just like that?"
Uncle, see for yourself. This guy is doing it on purpose. He’s saying these things to scare you so that you dare not use it!" Song Shiwei yelled at Dashan: "The old man is critically ill right now, and you are creating obstacles. What exactly are your intentions?"
Song Shiwei was agitated, "Uncle, it’s possible he was sent by soone else, with the sole purpose of hindering our treatnt of the old man. Uncle, please kick him out quickly!"
Qi Shanghai still did not speak. If it were soone else, he would have kicked them out long ago, but this was Qi Shuzhu who brought Chen Dashan back. Qi Shuzhu would never harm the old man—and what Chen Dashan had said earlier made perfect sense. Perhaps it was actually true.
"If we can’t test it, what do you suggest? How about we make a bet? If I can cure him, you must imdiately kneel down, apologize to
with a hundred kowtows, and admit you were wrong. How about that?" Divine Doctor Sun said, losing his temper.
Chen Dashan was completely unphased, calmly nodding: "Sure, but what if you can’t cure him? What then?"
"Hmph! If I can’t cure him, then whatever you say goes. Even my life is no problem!" Divine Doctor Sun patted his chest, exuding utmost confidence!
Chen Dashan smiled: "What use would I have for your life? Just rember your words. Later, you’ll do as I say!"
"Fine, when Sun makes a promise, he keeps it. I certainly won’t deceive you!"
Chen Dashan took a step back: "Then, please, go ahead!"
Qi Shuzhu grabbed Chen Dashan’s arm: "Dashan, are you really sure there’s no problem? What if my grandfather, as you said, encounters trouble—then what?"
"It’s fine, I’m here. Since I’ve agreed, naturally I have the confidence to ensure the old man’s safety. You can relax."
Only then did Qi Shuzhu nod and hum in approval, feeling reassured.
Song Shiwei saw Qi Shuzhu grabbing Chen Dashan’s arm and his face turned green.
Even though it was only a nominal engagent, seeing her so close and tender with another man, where could he put his face!
Song Shiwei, grinding his teeth in fury, cursed inwardly: "Chen Dashan, once the old man wakes up, even a thousand kowtows won’t be enough for you. And as for you, Qi Shuzhu, I’ll make sure you’re under , vigorously grinding away."
Qi Shanghai’s face darkened. Song Shiwei was confident in Divine Doctor Sun, Qi Shuzhu was confident in Chen Dashan, but he, he had confidence in no one.
Divine Doctor Sun had already begun. He took out various Chinese dicinal herbs, put on gloves, and carefully handled the Yellow Lotus Essence.
With this substance, caution was vital. It wasn’t only toxic when processed as a dicine; the Yellow Lotus Essence itself was extrely poisonous. A single careless touch, if mishandled, could lead to serious trouble!
After carefully taking it out, Divine Doctor Sun cautiously began to prepare it on the side.
"You’d better go out first. I have to grind this into powder, and there’s bound to be dust scattering into the air. If you inhale it, you could be poisoned." Divine Doctor Sun said slowly from the side.
Hearing this, Song Shiwei was the first to leave. Qi Shanghai hesitated for a mont but then also left.
Qi Shuzhu was still by Chen Dashan’s side and did not go out.
"You go out first. This stuff is indeed toxic. It’s not good to inhale it into your body," said Chen Dashan.
"And you?" asked Qi Shuzhu, her eyes glistening as she looked at him.
"I’m fine, don’t worry; you go out first, I’ll stay here," Chen Dashan said soothingly.
Qi Shuzhu pursed her lips and said, "Alright then, be careful."
Everyone left the room and watched through the glass above the door from the outside.
Divine Doctor Sun frowned upon seeing Chen Dashan still inside, "What? Aren’t you afraid of being poisoned? I’m telling you, once this stuff gets into your body, it can damage the kidneys."
Seeing that Chen Dashan was unwilling to leave, Divine Doctor Sun started to sound almost threatening.
"No worries, I have three kidneys; I’m not afraid," Chen Dashan laughed.
Divine Doctor Sun snorted coldly, "Good advice is wasted on the dood. Since you like staying here, then stay put! But I warn you, you’d better stay out of Mr. Song’s business. Don’t think just because Miss Qi is backing you up can you do whatever you want. So people are not to be trifled with!"
"Old man, just mind your own business, no need to try to persuade ."
"Humph, such ingratitude!" Divine Doctor Sun snorted coldly again and continued to work on the task at hand.
Several minutes later, Divine Doctor Sun had everything ready and shouted, "Ladies and gentlen, it’s all set, you can co in now."
Qi Shanghai couldn’t wait and pushed the door open.
"Begin, Divine Doctor Sun!" Song Shiwei stood tall and proud, as if victory was already his.
His glance towards Chen Dashan seed to say, "Get ready to kowtow."
Divine Doctor Sun rolled up his sleeves, helped the old man sit up, pinched the old man’s nose, and poured the dicine down.
Ten minutes later, the old man suddenly opened his eyes, gasping for air.
"Dad!"
"Grandpa!"
Qi Shanghai imdiately crowded around.
Divine Doctor Sun clapped his hands, smiling at Chen Dashan, "How about it? Do you believe now? A bet’s a bet; get down and kowtow. You don’t need to kowtow to , though, kowtowing to Mr. Sun will do!"
Song Shiwei ca up to Chen Dashan with a malevolent smile, "Kid, being arrogant is not a sin, but you need to have the ans to back it up. You’re being arrogant here; do you have the right?"
"You agreed to the terms; now kneel down and apologize, do it quickly!" Song Shiwei bellowed fiercely.
Chen Dashan remained unmoved, not even giving him a glance.
Song Shiwei beca unhappy, "Can’t play the ga? Scared? Zhuzhu, this is the man you brought? Is he even a man? He doesn’t dare to stand by his words. How could you bring soone like this?"
Shuzhu retorted, "Who says he’s afraid of admitting defeat? It’s not ti yet; what’s the rush?"
"Heh, Zhuzhu, I know you’re defending him, but you can’t blindly defend him without knowing right from wrong. The old man has already woken up; what else is there to say?" Song Shiwei couldn’t take it anymore and turned to Qi Shanghai, "Uncle, you heard the bet they made earlier. Now that the old man is awake and this dog won’t admit the bet, don’t you think that’s sowhat inappropriate?"
Qi Shanghai nodded, aware of the situation, and looked up at Chen Dashan, "Young man, I heard your bet earlier too. I think it’s best to honor a bet. Don’t you agree?"
