Could it be... that this proficient expert has been living in the deep sea all along How else can there have been two cases of people being injured by such a special technique within just two months

Upon thinking about this, Zhou Rulong felt a chill run down his spine. At this moment, he was even more reluctant to treat these people; usually, when an expert uses such techniques, it's intentional to let the person suffer.

If he were to help them reconnect their arms, he would offend this expert. It might be tolerable in other places, but now that this expert is clearly within the deep sea area, he was even more hesitant to proceed. He didn't want to incur such an expert's displeasure for these people, and besides, even if he did attempt it, there was only a 30% chance of success.

"Senior Zhou, you are the saintly hand in orthopedics! How could you possibly fail at reconnecting bones"

The fifty-something-year-old orthopedist's expression froze when he heard Senior Zhou's words. He said with a look of astonishment, within his heart, Senior Zhou’s reputation as an expert was well-deserved, and his bone-reconnecting skills were nothing short of miraculous.

Thus, it can be imagined how shocked he felt when Senior Zhou mentioned that he couldn't do it either.

Sr. Zhou shook his head without saying anything; if they were in another place, he might try to reconnect the bones because through doing so, he could study this technique further.

Such a technique was very rare, and with so many people suffering from such injuries, it presented him an extremely valuable opportunity. He had studied it once when helping someone connect their bone last time, and now seeing so many cases made him quite excited to learn more.

The only reason he didn't dare act was because even though his chances were slim, he was afraid of the expert's retaliation. Although there was just a possibility of revenge, he dared not risk it.

Moreover, even if he helped them with treatment now, he wouldn’t be able to learn it at present; one could only say that it would take time and repeated exposure to eventually master it. As for whether or not he might encounter such cases in the future, he couldn't guarantee it either.

Hence, he was unwilling to risk offending a genuine expert over this uncertain possibility.

Zhang Dahai's expression remained unchanged; he had anticipated that Sr. Zhou wouldn't be able to connect their bones. If any random orthopedist could do so, he would not have suffered for those years back then.

"Doctor, do you know who can reconnect these bones" Qin Zizhuo asked after some thought.

Upon hearing Qin Zizhuo's question, not only the security guards but even the head of orthopedics from the Deep Sea Hospital leaned in to listen carefully.

"Haha, I can tell you that whoever injured them could surely reconnect these bones. As for who else might be able to do it, I have no idea!"

Upon hearing Qin Zizhuo's question, Sr. Zhou chuckled and said.

Qin Zizhuo and the guards turned gloomy upon hearing Zhou Lao's words; no one spoke.

Suddenly, Qin Zizhuo thought of something. A look of surprise appeared on his face as he looked at Zhang Dahai and said, "Dahai, I remember that your arm was injured by someone using a special technique before but is now healed. Was it the bone setter doctor who helped mend it Can we ask him to help us"

"Heh heh, General Qin, my arm was healed by my third brother!" Zhang Dahai chuckled and said upon hearing Qin Zizhuo's words.

“Uh…” Upon hearing this, Qin Zizhuo was stunned. These guards were injured by Zhang Dahai’s third brother, so it would be very difficult to ask him for help now.

"Captain Zhang, where is your third brother Can he treat us"

These guards had all seen Zhang Dahai before and knew that one of his arms was disabled. Now hearing that his arm was healed by his third brother, they all showed a look of joy and eagerly looked at Zhang Dahai.

The guards didn’t know who Zhang Dahai’s third brother was, but Qin Zizhuo did, so upon hearing the guards' words, his face darkened even more. He felt that he had been thoroughly embarrassed by these guards.

"Shut up! Captain Zhang's third brother is the one who injured you all. Tell me what happened and see if there’s any way to salvage the situation!"

Qin Zizhuo glared at the guards still talking with Zhang Dahai.

“Uh…” Upon hearing Qin Zizhuo's roar, these guard team members were stunned. They looked at each other and all shut their mouths.

"Tell me then! Be detailed in your explanation or else you will be crippled for life!"

Qin Zizhuo said to the guards.

Hearing that Zhang Dahai’s injuries were also treated by Xiao Yu, he didn’t know what to do. Since Zhang Dahai couldn't get healed with his influence, it was even less likely for these guards to be helped.

At the same time, Qin Zizhuo believed that only Xiao Yu could help them heal, but if he wanted Xiao Yu's assistance, he needed to know what happened in detail. He also knew that this matter wouldn’t be simple; even if Xiao Yu were an ordinary person, he wouldn't have asked him about it, but now Xiao Yu was Zhang Dahai’s brother, so clearing up the situation before Xiao Yu arrives would be better.

Only by clarifying things now could Qin Zizhuo still salvage the situation when he meets Xiao Yu. Otherwise, if they are caught off guard later, it will be his face that gets trashed.

"This…" All of these guards looked at their leader.

The guard team leader saw all of them looking at him and, after hesitating for a moment, clenched his teeth and started to explain.

Hearing what the captain of the guards had to say, Zhang Dahai’s expression grew increasingly grim. When he heard that these guards were prepared to use their firearms, his face darkened, fists clenched tightly as veins in his arms bulged out. He slowly walked towards the guard captain.

Qin Zizhuo was taken aback; he hadn’t expected them to be willing to pull out their guns. Of course, if they were aiming at a regular doctor, there wouldn't have been any problem, but now this person was Zhang Dahai’s sworn brother.

"Dahai... Dahai... Wait! Take it easy first! Your brother is fine, and besides, these guys have already received their punishment!"

When Qin Zizhuo saw Zhang Dahai heading towards the guards, he hurried over to stop him.

No matter how wrong these guards were, they were still General Huang’s guards. Furthermore, in their current state, they couldn’t withstand any more beatings from Zhang Dahai.

Seeing Zhang Dahai’s expression, Qin Zizhuo knew that it was impossible for him to help connect the arms of those guards who had beaten his brother, so he didn’t continue. The most pressing matter at hand now was General Huang’s illness.

Zhang Dahai glared at the guards and turned around to leave.

Although Doctor Zhou wanted to examine Zhang Dahai’s injuries, after thinking it over, he decided against it; he didn’t want any trouble. So when Zhang Dahai and Qin Zizhuo left, he followed suit. Soon enough, everyone had left the room, leaving only those guards behind.

After returning to General Huang’s ward, Qin Zizhuo headed back there, while Doctor Zhou accompanied by an orthopedic doctor got into the elevator and went downstairs.

Now these people were quietly waiting for General Huang’s family members and Imperial Capital’s imperial physicians to arrive.

...

Xiao Yu left the hospital and headed to his clinic. He didn’t worry too much about today’s events; no matter how many more men they sent, what could they do

In the clinic, Xiao Hongyang had already returned. Seeing Xiao Yu enter, he hurriedly pointed at a golden-yellow plaque that could be hung on the wall and asked, "Master, how does this plaque look"

"Hmm, it looks good. How did you manage to get it done so quickly"

Xiao Yu nodded in satisfaction as he looked at the plaque, asking Xiao Hongyang.

"Heh, I gave him an extra hundred dollars and told him to hurry up!" Hearing Xiao Yu’s question, Xiao Hongyang chuckled and said.

"Doctor, are you here

While Xiao Yu and his companions were talking, voices could be heard from the door.

"Yes, yes!" Upon hearing the voices, both Xiao Yu and Xiao Hongyang responded at the same time. After their response, they turned around to see who it was.

A young couple stood by the door with a child in their arms. Hearing Xiao Yu's reply, they entered the room. The woman held a baby in her arms.

The child they were holding was only about a week old and kept crying incessantly.

They glanced at Xiao Yu and Xiao Hongyang for a moment before approaching Xiao Hongyang and said, "Doctor, this child has been unhappy all day and keeps crying. He even vomited twice today!"

Xiao Yu helplessly shook his head; in the field of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM), age is still an advantage. Unless you have a great reputation, people generally prefer to seek out older practitioners.

Xiao Yu had already examined this child earlier and noticed that the child's complexion didn't indicate any serious issues—Xiao Hongyang could handle it himself. Therefore, Xiao Yu looked out of the window, contemplating his upcoming trip to Zhonghai.

He wasn’t sure how things would turn out on this trip to Zhonghai, but he had to make an attempt. The only question was: How should he contact that family If he just showed up without prior arrangement, he would definitely be turned away.

"Sigh, it’s too early to think about these things now; I’ll worry about them later when I’m in Zhonghai," Xiao Yu thought to himself with a light sigh.

Xiao Yu stopped pondering and turned his attention back to Xiao Hongyang. The child was still crying loudly while Xiao Hongyang held up a golden needle, preparing to treat him.

By observing the acupuncture points Xiao Hongyang used, Xiao Yu knew that this child had merely caught a chill and suffered from abdominal distension.

Soon after, Xiao Hongyang finished his treatment. "I will give you a prescription; just have him take one dose when you get back."

"No need for the prescription," interrupted Xiao Yu as he stopped Xiao Hongyang. He then addressed the child's parents: “Take some ginger and crush it. Wrap it in gauze and place it on his navel, blowing warm breaths onto the navel to help him. Also, keep the baby’s tummy warm at night—this child has a cold constitution and shouldn't eat raw or cold food."

When Xiao Hongyang mentioned that he would prescribe medication, Xiao Yu stopped him and instead shared some knowledge on childcare with the parents.

"By the way, is this child still breastfeeding" After considering for a moment, Xiao Yu asked further.

"Yes… He still is," replied the parents of the child in surprise. They had never encountered a doctor like Xiao Yu before and were quick to respond upon hearing his question.eir faces the whole time.Xiao Yu didn't say a word; he focused on his food. Soon after finishing his meal, he left some money on the table, bid farewell to the two little girls, and returned to the cl...
