Chapter 121: The Beautiful Zombie!

Chapter 121: Chapter 121: The Beautiful Zombie!

"You’ve finally arrived!"

Lin Fan’s car stopped at the quaint Medicine King House.

Li Qiqi had been standing at the door waiting.

Her face full of joy, she rushed over to Lin Fan like a butterfly.

"I feel that your grandpa has been acting a bit strange lately."

Lin Fan curiously looked at the parking spot with the car.

This visitor drove merely a joint-venture car worth just over twenty thousand.

You should know, Li Yizhen is the Divine Doctor of Jiangning.

A single visit from him starts at a million.

If someone who comes here in this type of car, it’s clear they are a very low-key person.

"Mind your words, it’s ’our grandpa.’

Li Qiqi pouted.

"Didn’t he agree to retire, to live a life of idle freedom? Why is he accepting patients every few days, and all with strange illnesses at that? Is he preparing for a comeback?"

Lin Fan shook his head helplessly.

He was still disturbed by the ordeal with the little ghost last time.

"Of course not. It’s just that some patients, they can’t be refused. You’ll understand once you go inside."

Li Qiqi clung to his arm.

The two of them walked through the pavilion and arrived at the rear wing room.

"Mr. Lin, you’ve come!"

Li Yizhen, who had been pacing outside the wing room.

Upon seeing Lin Fan, he rushed over joyously.

"Mr. Li, be steady, how old are you to be still running like this?"

Lin Fan hurriedly supported the octogenarian.

Although he was in good physical condition, his age was an undeniable factor.

A fall could lead to serious complications.

"It’s not... I’m just excited... if you didn’t come soon, my Medicine King House’s reputation would be ruined."

Li Yizhen grasped Lin Fan’s hand in agitation.

He was now his lifeline.

"What exactly is going on? I heard from Qi Qi that there’s a living person with no pulse?"

Lin Fan peered curiously into the wing room.

Clearly, there was someone inside but sitting behind beaded curtains, not clearly visible.

"Yes, in my many years of practicing medicine, this is the first time I’ve encountered such a strange case. This woman’s pulse is completely unresponsive, yet she moves about freely. Do you think she could be some kind of demon?"

Li Yizhen looked nervously at the wing room inside.

His understanding of the world had been completely upended since the little ghost incident.

"Then you should be looking for a Heavenly Master, not me."

Lin Fan sighed helplessly.

A fine doctor he was meant to be,

yet almost becoming a Taoist.

"I wasn’t sure either, which is why I asked for you. Plus, the person is wearing a broad-brimmed bamboo hat covering their face, clearly not someone to trifle with. She went to the Medicine King Pavilion for a consultation this morning; all my apprentices were stumped, unable to treat her. She threatened to smash the Medicine King’s signboard, so we had to invite her here. Whether I can preserve my lifetime’s reputation now depends entirely on you."

Li Yizhen quickly explained the situation.

Upon hearing this introduction, Lin Fan was also very curious.

"Then let me meet this pulseless ’living dead’ person."

Lin Fan said and stepped towards the wing room.

Li Yizhen and Li Qiqi hurriedly followed him.

Entering the wing room, Lin Fan saw two men standing on each side.

Straight as pines, their breathing was steady, with pronounced temples.

Clearly, they were adept at Qi Cultivation.

The person sitting there was dressed in a white robe, embroidered with green bamboo.

Wearing a cap, the dropped curtain concealed their entire face.

"Hey, old man, can you give our miss a diagnosis or not? If you don’t act now, I’ll smash this shoddy medical house of yours."

The maid standing behind the mysterious person glared at Li Yizhen fiercely.

"If it’s about seeing a doctor, let’s stick to that. Every other word is about smashing this or that. Is your family in the demolition business?"

Lin Fan sat opposite the mysterious person.

Although her face was concealed,

her exposed fingers were fair, delicate, and slender.

"Who are you, and what do you want?"

The maid looked at Lin Fan with a cold face.

"You’d better speak respectfully. Do you call people things in your household? Truly lacking in manners."

Lin Fan’s expression became stern.

He hated those who bullied others by flaunting their power.

"Xiaodie, shut your mouth!"

The mysterious woman waved her hand to stop the maid who was about to speak.

Turning her face to the side, she looked at Lin Fan through the white veil.

"Everyone says that Jiangning’s Li Yizhen is a Divine Doctor. I have been feeling unwell recently, so I came especially to seek medical help, but the Divine Doctor refused to see me. My sister here is also impulsive, so please forgive us, sir. May I ask what are you doing sitting here?"

The woman’s voice was gentle yet full of vigor.

"Sitting here, of course, is to see a patient. The study of traditional medicine is all about ’looking, smelling, asking, and touching,’ so please remove the hat so that I can see Miss’s true face. Then, I can further deduce the pathology."

Her voice was rich in magnetism.

Listening to it was quite enjoyable.

Lin Fan could not help but slow down his speech.

"How can my mistress’s face be something you can just look at?"

Maid Xiaodie immediately put on a stern face.

Compared to her, her voice was particularly grating.

"Excuse me, sir, I cannot casually show my face with this veil. If ’looking, smelling, asking, and touching’ are the four methods, please trouble yourself with the fourth method."

After saying that, the woman placed her fair hand directly on the table.

Her slender fingers looked like jade.

"All right, if that’s the case, then I have no choice."

Since the other party was unwilling to remove the veil,

Lin Fan could only comply.

"Wait, how do we know if your hand is dirty or not!"

But just as he was about to take her pulse, he was stopped again by Xiaodie.

She then took out a handkerchief and covered the woman’s wrist.

"This really is a grand household with a lot of attention to detail,"

Lin Fan didn’t mind.

With his skill, Qi Cultivation diagnosis was especially foolproof.

Even through a silk handkerchief, it wasn’t an obstacle.

However, when he placed his three fingers on the woman’s pulse,

he couldn’t help but frown.

"Is there no pulse?"

Li Yizhen looked anxiously at Lin Fan.

He had already checked earlier and indeed found no trace of a heartbeat.

"Miss, your pulse is truly unique,"

After a long silence, Lin Fan finally lifted his hand.

After touching for a long time, he still hadn’t felt any pulse.

"I see you are also a quack, not even knowing how to take a pulse. That sign for Medicine King House might as well be taken down—it’s useless."

Maid Xiaodie said, with her lips pursed.

"Sir, could it be that you also can’t make a diagnosis?"

The woman’s voice carried a hint of disappointment.

It seemed the reinforcement called by Li Yizhen wasn’t much after all.

"Miss, is this some kind of test?"

Lin Fan asked with a smile, once again extending his hand.

But this time, he didn’t take her pulse; instead, he directly grabbed her wrist.

"You..."

Before Maid Xiaodie could speak, Lin Fan flipped the woman’s wrist over.

As he placed his three fingers half an inch away on the back of her hand,

a series of pulse beats finally made his tightened brows relax.

"It is said in ancient books that there are rare individuals who, with the use of Heaven, Earth, and Man—the three talents in harmony—forge the art of yin and yang: a right-sided heart, left-sided lungs, a liver in front and gallbladder behind, turning stilness into movement. Miss, you have a unique and unprecedented ’Three Wonders Pulse.’ You are indeed a peerless individual against nature!"
