Chapter 150: Withdrawal Reaction

"Look!"

Ma Menghan was the first to discover the abnormality on Ma Yiren's head and shouted excitedly, startling everyone.

The others all gathered their gazes onto Ma Yiren's forehead.

"There really is a parasite!"

Ma Zicheng exclaimed, his face full of disbelief.

"It seems Chen Che's diagnosis was correct, and the treatment method was also correct. Dad is saved!"

Ma Zijun also looked excited, his eyes full of gratitude as he looked at Chen Che.

Xie Jinchen was beaming; his attention was not on the parasite at all, but entirely on the thirteen Ghost Gate Needles.

He recalled Chen Che's technique over and over in his mind, hating himself for not having a photographic memory at this moment.

The most shocked was Liu Tianhua; he had witnessed Chen Che perform the entire thirteen-needle technique, which had a slight discrepancy with the records in ancient books, but it was completely negligible.

After all, there is a difference between theory and practice, and as someone who understood Medicine, he could appreciate this even more.

He widened his eyes, his gaze shifting back and forth between Ma Yiren and Chen Che; he was more shocked by Chen Che than by witnessing the legendary medical Array!

To be in his twenties and already possess this legendary medical skill, which could be called a divine skill—how could such a heaven-gifted talent not shock him!

Chen Che turned a deaf ear to the exclamations of the people around him, rubbed his two fingers slightly, and two wisps of True Qi appeared between his fingers, instantly grabbing the parasite on Ma Yiren's forehead.

The True Qi cut through the skin, and the entire worm was pinched out.

The parasite stretched out like a rubber band to several meters—it had deliberately shrunk its body while under the skin, which was why it only looked five centimeters long.

Chen Che flicked his arm, pulling the parasite out completely in one smooth motion.

The parasite coiled around Chen Che's fingertip; its appearance was no different from an earthworm, the only difference being that its body was green.

Ma Zijun and the others gathered around one after another, looking at the green worm with amazement.

"What is this thing? How did it get into my dad's body?"

Ma Zijun frowned and asked.

"Uncle Ma was unlucky and got entangled by this thing..."

Before Chen Che could finish his sentence, Ma Ziai suddenly let out a scream.

"Ah!! Uncle! Uncle is rolling his eyes!"

Ma Ziai looked at Ma Yiren with a face full of horror.

Her scream caused everyone else to shift their gaze back to Ma Yiren.

They saw that Ma Yiren was currently convulsing all over, foaming at the mouth, and his eyes were rolled back, as if he were enduring torture.

"Dad!"

"Husband!"

This sudden turn of events caused Ma Zijun, Ma Zicheng, and Huang Zhu to panic instantly, and they threw themselves to the bedside, calling out to Ma Yiren over and over again.

"Ding———"

The harsh beeping of the monitor suddenly turned into a long, continuous tone, and as Ma Yiren stopped convulsing, his heartbeat also stopped.

"No!"

"How could this happen?! How could this happen?!"

Huang Zhu and Ma Ziai burst into tears, while Ma Zijun and Ma Zicheng roared hysterically.

Ma Menghan and Lin Su were also stunned, their expressions toward Chen Che filled with undisguised panic and worry.

Neither of them had expected Chen Che to fail, but compared to this, they were more worried about the Ma Family's wrath after Ma Yiren was treated to death.

The smile on Xie Jinchen's face also froze; he had not expected Chen Che to fail at all. He had seen the Ghost Gate Needle before, and logically speaking, even if it couldn't cure Ma Yiren, it shouldn't have killed him, right?

Could it be that something went wrong when removing the worm?

"I knew it, you couldn't possibly know the Ghost Gate Acupuncture, you were just playing god to deceive people!"

After a brief moment of shock, Liu Tianhua grabbed Chen Che and pointed at him with an angry face, accusing him, "Your senior sister Li Qingyan has a bad temper, but she also has great skills!

But you actually dared to use the name of the Divine Doctor's junior brother, not only deceiving Old Xie, but now you even dare to practice medicine recklessly, causing Mr. Ma's death. You are a disgrace to the medical world! Today you must pay the price for your actions!"

"Old Liu, don't say that. My junior uncle didn't deceive anyone. I witnessed his skills last time. This time... this time it must be an accident. After all, you also said that few people from ancient times to the present know the Ghost Gate Needle, so an occasional accident is inevitable."

Xie Jinchen immediately rushed up to push Liu Tianhua away, blocking in front of Chen Che to defend him, but he was clearly lacking confidence.

"An accident? Your accident is the life of my family member! A life for a life, you must pay the price!"

Huang Zhu was covered in tears, her eyes flashing with vicious cold light, determined to make Chen Che pay with his life.

Ma Ziai wiped away her tears and turned to look at the stunned Ma Menghan. Even at a time like this, she did not forget to target Ma Menghan, shouting:

"And you, you jinx! I knew nothing good would come of you arriving! Uncle was cursed to death by you!"

Ma Menghan's body swayed, and she subconsciously looked at Chen Che. She did not believe Chen Che would fail, but with the facts before her, she had no way to refute it.

"I can overlook whatever you did to me, but you actually harmed my dad, so even if I die, I will drag you down with me!"

Ma Zicheng glared fiercely at Chen Che and was about to call for people.

Ma Zijun stopped Ma Zicheng, stood up, and looked at Chen Che. Holding onto a final shred of hope, he asked, "Brother Chen Che, I know you wouldn't harm my dad, but please tell me what is going on right now. My dad, what exactly happened to him?"

Chen Che glanced at Ma Zijun, then looked at Ma Yiren, and finally landed on the green parasite on his finger.

"It should be a withdrawal reaction from the worm being pulled out of the body. Wait a moment and he will wake up."

Chen Che pondered for a moment and said.

"Hah!"

Liu Tianhua let out a cold, disdainful snort. He already had a bias against Chen Che because of Li Qingyan, and at this moment, he was convinced that Chen Che was a shameless quack who was unskilled and did not take the patient's life seriously.

Hearing Chen Che's words, he only thought that Chen Che was panicking and had made up a lie to avoid legal sanctions and the Ma Family's retaliation.

"The person is already like this, nothing you say is of any use. Today you must pay the price for your arrogance!"

Liu Tianhua said coldly.

"Cough, cough!"

"Beep—"

Just as Liu Tianhua finished speaking, the instrument, which had been emitting a long, drawn-out sound, let out a beep.

The sound was not loud, yet it entered the ears of everyone present like a thunderclap.

Swish, swish, swish...

Except for Chen Che, everyone widened their eyes, staring at the screen on the instrument.

"Beep—"

"Beep—beep, beep—"

One sound followed another, gradually becoming rhythmic.

At the same time, the other instruments also began to change their patterns and numbers.

Every instrument displayed the same result: the various indicators of Ma Yiren's body were stable; he was fine!

Seeing this scene, everyone present was dumbfounded!

No one had expected the reversal to come so quickly, and for a moment, they did not know how to react.

Liu Tianhua's expression, originally set on holding someone accountable, froze on his face once again, and his gaze involuntarily shifted to Ma Yiren.

Those thirteen Silver Needles were still vibrating and humming, and a faint, imperceptible True Qi was slowly being injected into Ma Yiren's body; even the wound on his forehead had healed!

Liu Tianhua's face was full of disbelief as he looked at Chen Che again in shock.

He could not fathom it, but at this moment, he had to believe it: Chen Che had truly done it!

Furthermore, just as Chen Che had said, the decline in Ma Yiren's bodily functions just now was truly just a simple withdrawal reaction from the parasite being extracted from his body!

"You..."

Liu Tianhua could not help himself and was just about to open his mouth to ask Chen Che how he had done it.

However, at this moment, Chen Che retracted the Ghost Gate Needles one by one.

The next thing that happened once again left everyone present stunned and dazed!
