Chapter 64 The Burden of Reputation
After the Deer Cry Manor became an instant sensation, and after the Li family massacre completely cleared his name, the reputation of "Ye Feng, the reclusive divine doctor of Nirvana Mountain" has resounded throughout Dongyang.
Furthermore, the high-end senior care center jointly built by Lin and Zhu has taken Ye Feng's name to the extreme... "Dr. Ye is in charge"—this phrase alone is enough to make the rich second-generation ladies of Dongyang City and Shizhou City fight tooth and nail for it. Once their senior care center was completed, the reservation list was already booked for more than half a year.
Lin Zhenshan was overjoyed and praised his good daughter-in-law to everyone he met. Although she was not officially recognized yet, the old man was absolutely certain that the matter was settled.
However, this reputation for being utterly worthless is also a bad thing for Ye Feng.
More and more people came to Ye Feng for medical treatment. Some were trying to curry favor, and some were after money. In any case, the footprints on the Lin family's door were practically worn out.
Ye Feng disliked dealing with these things, so he began to refuse them. He would not see anyone with normal rich man's diseases or those who were pretentious and arrogant. He would only stop seeing those with difficult and serious illnesses that other doctors could not cure.
Today, I actually encountered a critically ill patient with a difficult condition.
In Dongyang, there was a highly respected retired judge who suddenly fell ill a few days ago. His muscles gradually atrophied and stiffened, and he slowly withered away, eventually becoming bedridden. Several of Dongyang's top hospitals examined him and used various instruments, but they couldn't find anything wrong. Finally, they could only vaguely say, "We don't know if it's some kind of strange motor neuron disease. Please be prepared!"
The Chen family was unconvinced and, after much searching, learned of Doctor Ye's great reputation. With a last-ditch effort, they brought him a large sum of money and went to find him.
Ye Feng originally didn't want to go. Nine times out of ten, these kinds of intractable diseases that have been given a death sentence by major hospitals are truly incurable. However, after hearing about Old Man Chen's symptoms, he frowned slightly and agreed to go and take a look.
Lying on the bed was the once imposing old judge, now emaciated and barely breathing. Ye Feng placed three fingers on the old man's pulse, concentrated his mind, and channeled his inner energy along the old man's veins:
His eyes widened.
"It's not a terminal illness." Ye Feng withdrew his finger. "It's poisoning. Years ago, I was poisoned by a very slow-acting 'bone-corroding poison.' That poison is very small and subtle, but once you're poisoned, it's extremely insidious, slowly eroding your bones and your body. This poison takes effect so slowly, and it's indistinguishable from that 'terminal illness.' Even if a regular doctor uses all the equipment, they wouldn't be able to detect that it's poisoning."
The faces of everyone in the Chen family in the room changed.
Poisoning?
Was it poisoning more than ten years ago?
"Doctor Ye...Doctor Ye, is there any other way?" Mr. Chen's son's voice trembled.
"Yes." Ye Feng opened the vial. "Although the poison is insidious, I can see through its cause and therefore have a way to cure it."
He immediately administered acupuncture and medication, using his own vital energy as a guide to gradually expel the toxins from Old Chen's bone marrow through his blood vessels.
This was a dangerous yet delicate process. Ye Feng's forehead began to sweat, but he still maintained a calm mind.
This went on for a month.
The old judge, who was on the verge of death and had been pronounced dead by a top-tier hospital, miraculously reappeared, getting better day by day, and eventually was even able to walk with a cane!
The entire Chen family was extremely grateful, telling everyone that Ye Feng was a reincarnation of Hua Tuo (a legendary Chinese physician). They also prepared a large sum of money to thank the divine doctor, but as was customary, Ye Feng returned it untouched.
Thus, Ye Feng's "miraculous healing" once again made the name "bringing the dead back to life" even more deeply rooted in people's hearts.
However, he sensed something unusual about this "bone-corroding poison".
"This poison is insidious and evil, specifically targeting the human body to secretly harm people's lives. It's the same trick as the Seven Star Begonia from the Li family back then." Ye Feng said to Lin Yuqing at night, "But this old judge was poisoned more than ten years ago, when the Li family hadn't yet set their sights on your Lin family."
Lin Yuqing was startled: "You mean... someone else is still using this method to deal with us?"
"Hmm!" Ye Feng said with a chilling look in his eyes, "Moreover, this old judge has handled many major cases. Perhaps someone killed the old judge to cover up some shady dealings."
Thinking of what Li Chongshan saw on Nirvana Mountain before he was captured, and Zhao Hui's confident yet unfathomable eyes, Ye Feng realized that there was actually an even bigger crocodile hidden in Dongyang City that he had not seen.
The Li family, the old major case, the poisoned old judge, and that smiling tiger Zhao Hui... One seemingly unrelated clue after another converged in the same corner of his mind that no one could see.
"It seems the Li family has fallen, and this game is far from over!" Ye Feng said slowly, a chill creeping into his eyes. "The real mastermind is only just beginning to reveal themselves!"
Lin Yuqing followed Ye Feng's words, and her heart began to grow cold. In the past six months, they had defeated her uncle, brought down the Li family, and repelled the Zhao family's overt attacks. She thought that she should be able to take a break and enjoy some peace and quiet.
But Ye Feng's words were like a bucket of cold water, waking her up!
The storm hasn't passed! The biggest fish is still hiding on the seabed, not yet revealing itself!
The so-called calm before our eyes is just a moment of tranquility before the storm.
Just as Lin Yuqing was about to say something, Ye Feng's phone suddenly rang.
It's actually Zhu Wanqing's!
"Hello!" Lin Yuqing turned on the hands-free function.
On the other end of the phone, Zhu Wanqing's voice was unusually heavy and suppressed: "Ye Feng, President Lin, something has happened to our health and wellness center."
Ye Feng and Lin Yuqing exchanged a glance, and both felt a chill run down their spines.
Their health and wellness center was the first step in the collaboration between the two families. They poured countless amounts of money into it, and it was almost completed. So why did something go wrong at this point?
"What happened?" Lin Yuqing asked in a deep voice.
"The core medical equipment suppliers we had negotiated with," Zhu Wanqing paused, "all backed out almost simultaneously today! And the department responsible for approvals is also blocking our final step, saying they need to 're-verify'!"
Lin Yuqing's face immediately turned ugly.
This tactic! She knows all too well how to simultaneously poach suppliers and obstruct official approvals. It's almost the same method she used when dealing with the Lin and Zhu families.
Strangely, the Zhao family, having already laid low their own assets after the Li family's downfall, were not about to play this game.
"Hmm, this smell," Ye Feng said with a sinister look, "it smells very familiar to me."
