Chapter 354: Simply outrageous

At this time, the venue was already bustling with noise and excitement, with no empty seats.

Today is the fourth round of the competition, and also the last round.

Who will win will soon be revealed.

Not only the contestants were nervous, but the audience under the stage was also discussing, excited.

"I bet ten taels of silver, the first place must be the Fourth Princess of the Fenglin Kingdom. Her master is Divine Needle Qiu Shisan, very powerful!"

"That's not necessarily true. As the saying goes, the master leads the door, and the practice is on the individual. Look at how pretty that Fourth Princess is, she must have been pampered on weekdays, how much thought could she have spent on medical skills? I'm afraid she's just a half-baked one."

"Exactly, I am more optimistic about the medical envoy of the Changli Kingdom, Dongfang, who looks like a fairy, with a divine doctor's face. Choosing him is definitely right..."

A few people were arguing with spit flying. A scholar next to them couldn't listen anymore.

"Why must it be someone from another country? Is Da Zhao out of people?"

The few people who spoke before glanced over in unison.

"What, did it poke your lung tube?"

"You are so noble, then tell me, who else in our Da Zhao can compare with them?"

"It wouldn't be that Du clan, whose handwriting is as ugly as if it were scratched out by chicken claws, and who threatened to operate on people's eyes, right?"

A few people looked at each other and burst into loud laughter.

The scholar was furious, flicked his sleeves. "Unreasonable, a bunch of traitors who destroy their own prestige and boost others' ambition!"

"Traitor" is not a good word.

Those men stood up with a crash, glaring. "Who are you calling a traitor?"

The scholar snorted coldly and turned his head to ignore them.

Seeing that he was ignored, the few men refused to let it go, shouting that they wanted to beat someone.

The audience sitting nearby hurriedly persuaded them to stop fighting. "Alright, alright, everyone say one less word. What's there to argue about? Won't we know who is right and who is wrong after the competition?"

This calmed the dispute.

The audience area was arguing incessantly, and the medical envoy groups of the three major neighboring countries also had different expressions.

The Changli Kingdom sat upright and straight, either counting sheep with their heads down or closing their eyes to rest, with a calm posture of not being surprised by favor or humiliation, as if winning or losing didn't matter to them.

Their performance this time wasn't bad, but it wasn't outstanding either.

How to say it?

It was just very Buddhist, with no sense of presence.

The Ghost Fang Kingdom next door was completely the opposite. Probably because they were wiped out, they had no scruples, and they were all talking loudly and arguing endlessly.

There were even a few performing eating raw meat with their bare hands on the spot!

Causing everyone to look sideways.

Disgusted and fearful.

The most normal one was the Fenglin Kingdom.

The Fenglin Kingdom has more women than men, so most of the people sent to participate in the competition were women, regardless of age, all beautiful as flowers.

Among them, the most eye-catching one was naturally the Fourth Imperial Daughter, Xiao Minjun, sitting in the middle.

Clear and refined, it would not be an exaggeration to call her a fairy.

Fortunately, she had a noble status, and men had the heart of a thief but not the courage of a thief, only daring to steal a few glances to satisfy their cravings.

Xiao Minjun's gaze swept across the venue, then turned to ask Aunt Zhaoyue beside her in a low voice, "Are you sure you have talked to Du Ruo?"

"Princess, rest assured." Zhaoyue was confident. "Although I didn't say it directly to her face, Da Zhao women take their husbands as heaven, and it's the same if her husband agrees."

Hearing this, Xiao Minjun was disappointed.

"I thought that Official Jiang Li was different from other men, but it turns out he is just like that."

Zhaoyue smiled. "The princess has seen too few men, so she has this illusion. All crows in the world are black, men, how many can resist the temptation of power? I just threatened him a little, and he immediately raised his hands to surrender, even worse than ordinary men."

Is that so?

Xiao Minjun always felt something was wrong, but couldn't say it, so she could only nod. "That's good."

Before long, the judges also took their seats.

Wen Shiyuan walked to the front as usual to announce the start of the fourth round of the competition. However, before that, the results of the third round of the competition yesterday had to be announced.

The other contestants had already made a decision after the judges discussed it.

Except for Du Ruo, Xiao Minjun, and Mo Changsheng.

Their patients either needed surgery or needed time to observe the effect after applying needles, so there was no way to determine on the spot.

Whether they passed or not would only be known after the judges verified it in public later.

The first to come out was Xiao Minjun's patient.

That is, the wealthy wife who was suffering from insomnia.

Before Wen Shiyuan could ask, she started chattering herself. "Miraculous, really miraculous! After the princess applied needles to me yesterday, my head doesn't hurt, my face isn't swollen, and I don't feel uncomfortable anymore. I slept until dawn!"

As she spoke, she suddenly cried. "I, I haven't slept so soundly for a long time, wuwuwu..."

The audience suddenly buzzed.

This means, it's cured?

Deserving to be the direct disciple of Divine Needle Qiu Shisan, she really has two brushes, amazing!

Of course, just relying on the patient's own words is not enough. After all, the mouth can lie, so it must be verified by the judges before it can be counted.

Wen Shiyuan, Mu Shanyue, and several elders took turns to take her pulse, and then exchanged a tacit look.

"The patient's pulse is calm and gentle, and the qi and blood are full. The condition has greatly improved!" Wen Shiyuan announced loudly.

That is to say, Xiao Minjun passed.

A faint smile appeared on Xiao Minjun's clear face. She subconsciously looked at Zongzheng Yun sitting there, but saw Zongzheng Yun supporting his chin, tilting his head to face the stage, not noticing the movement here at all.

Following his line of sight.

Sure enough, it was Du Ruo again!

Her heart sank, and her smile gradually stiffened.

Aunt Zhaoyue beside her noticed Xiao Minjun's abnormality and hurriedly comforted her: "Princess, don't be anxious, that woman will make a fool of herself soon. Once she is eliminated, the Prince of Yu's attention will naturally fall on you."

Xiao Minjun barely pulled the corners of her mouth.

Hope so.

Next came out Mo Changsheng's patient—the nasal polyp man.

Before, he had symptoms of difficulty breathing. After surgery, his spirit looked very good now. Although the nasal sound was still very heavy, he no longer had the feeling of being unable to catch his breath.

"Dr. Mo, you are too awesome! You are simply my rebirth parent, I thank your eight generations of ancestors!"

The nasal polyp man gestured and laughed at Mo Changsheng under the stage.

Mo Changsheng touched the back of his head awkwardly and grinned along.

Wen Shiyuan and others checked it as usual, confirming that the nasal polyp man's surgery was very successful, and he only needed to recuperate for a period of time to recover.

Needless to say, Mo Changsheng naturally passed.

Now, only the last patient was left.

That blind old woman.

Both on and off the stage widened their eyes, and their ears were pricked up. Some were curious, some were questioning, and more were mocking.

The previous two patients had some clues.

But operating on a blind person's eyes could turn a bad eye into a good eye, and could let her see the light again. Does anyone believe this kind of ghost talk?

Simply outrageous!

Everyone held their breath, waiting quietly, waiting to see Du Ruo make a fool of herself.

The blind old woman stood on the stage with several layers of gauze covering her eyes, at a loss. Although she couldn't see, she could hear, and all those ugly words poured into her ears.

She became more cautious, and her heart became more afraid.

Afraid that when she opened her eyes later, it would still be a misty piece...

Dr. Hua on the judge's seat became restless again, sneering: "I said it wouldn't work, but she insisted on showing off. Now it's good, after Du's tossing, maybe even the last glimmer of light is gone, completely blind. Heh, what a sin."

Jiang Li glanced at him lightly.

"Dr. Hua, if you really can't control your tongue, I don't mind helping you cut it off." Zongzheng Yun smiled without a smile.

Dr. Hua closed his mouth with a "ga" and didn't dare to say more.

Over there, Wen Shiyuan ordered: "Bring the umbrella!" ===== CHAPTER 355 =====
