Chapter 373: Chapter 393: The Imprisoned Weirdo _1

"Mr. Lin, please follow me."

After breakfast, Ma Wencai led Lin Chen to a separate room at the back of the manor.

Ma Wencai opened the door but didn’t rush to push it, instead, he looked at Lin Chen sideways: "Mr. Lin, I hope you can keep everything you see next confidential and not reveal it to anyone."

Lin Chen smiled slightly: "I only treat patients."

Ma Wencai nodded with satisfaction: "Since it concerns the secrets of the Ma family, the consequences of its disclosure would be severe, so I have to remind you especially. I hope Mr. Lin won’t mind."

Lin Chen said with a laugh: "I understand, protecting the privacy of patients is the professional ethics of doctors."

Ma Wencai then pushed open the room door and entered the room. Lin Chen looked around and saw various tools and equipment in the room, which seemed to be a tool room.

There was no one in the room. Just as Lin Chen was puzzled, Ma Wencai turned a toolbox on the shelf next to him, and a small square block slid open on the wall, revealing a keypad with a password lock.

Ma Wencai entered a long string of passwords, and the floor next to the wall suddenly moved, slowly sliding back to reveal the entrance to an underground chamber. There were neat steps at the entrance, leading underground.

The patient is in the basement?

In an instant, Lin Chen had imagined countless plots in his mind, fearing that this treatment journey might be different from the past.

Following Ma Wencai, Lin Chen walked down the stairs, and after about fifty steps, Lin Chen finally set foot on the basement floor.

The basement was spacious, but still empty.

Ma Wencai presses an inconspicuous square brick on the side wall, the brick sinks and slides to the side, revealing a metal keypad with a password lock again.

Ma Wencai entered the password again, and the wall in front of the two suddenly moved, slowly sliding to the sides.

Behind the wall was a not-too-wide room, in which there was a middle-aged man whose long hair was disheveled and messy. Shockingly, his hands and feet were each locked by a thick, fine steel chain.

The other ends of the four chains were deeply embedded in the walls, and their lengths were about three-quarters of the room, which meant that the middle-aged man’s range of movement could only be around the center of the room.

Lin Chen was shocked.

What kind of person is this that he’s imprisoned like this?

Seeing such a secret, would he be silenced by the Ma family?

This is the stronghold of the Ma family, having several Innate Grandmasters is entirely possible. If they want to get rid of him, it would be difficult for him to escape even if he had wings.

Just when Lin Chen was feeling uneasy, Ma Wencai spoke.

"Dad!"

Lin Chen was taken aback and subconsciously scanned the faces of Ma Wencai and the man locked up.

Is this man Ma Wencai’s father?

Looking carefully at the face, it does look very similar, but the face of the chained man looks much younger than Ma Wencai’s, not to mention father and son, no one would believe they are brothers.

The locked-up man looked at Ma Wencai with a blank expression, as if he didn’t recognize him at all.

Ma Wencai sighed and said, "This is my father, Ma Yangpeng. He has been insane for more than twenty years and doesn’t recognize any family members. He always sees us as monsters and has injured several family members. To prevent him from hurting more, we specially built this underground room..."

Lin Chen curiously asked: "Your dad should be a cultivator, right? Can these four fine steel chains lock him up?"

Ma Wencai explained: "We add Dispersing Qi Pills to his daily meals, so he can’t concentrate Qi in his Dantian and is no different from an ordinary person. The four chains can confine him."

Lin Chen nodded: "How did he go insane?"

Ma Wencai sighed: "More than twenty years ago, he went to Cang Mountain for some business. We don’t know what he encountered, but anyway, he went crazy, causing chaos in Cang Mountain. Someone recognized him and notified us, so we brought him back."

"Over the years, we visited famous doctors hoping to cure him and find out what he went through, but the famous doctors were helpless. I saw Mr. Lin’s extremely skilled medical skills, so I invited you to take a look and see if there is any miracle that can happen."

Lin Chen nodded: "Do you have an inspection report? Let me have a look for reference."

"Yes."

Ma Wencai, obviously well-prepared, handed Lin Chen the folder he was holding.

Lin Chen did not rush to check Ma Yangpeng, but first read the inspection report. After reading the report, Lin Chen frowned.

Because according to the inspection report, everything about Ma Yangpeng is normal!

This is very eerie!

Lin Chen put down the inspection report: "Let me examine him."

As Lin Chen approached Ma Yangpeng, his face suddenly showed a horrified expression. He retreated while shouting loudly, "Monster, don’t come over here!"

As Lin Chen took a few more steps closer, Ma Yangpeng’s emotions became even more agitated, swinging his fist and hitting Lin Chen.
