Chapter 52: Chapter 52 Another Case
"Good heavens!" Exclamations rang out both inside and outside Jishitang.
"This girl is amazing! As soon as she made a move, those four men were taken down."
"Serves them right. They dared to use violence against Doctor Xiao. They deserve to be beaten to a pulp."
The crowd pointed at the bodyguards who were lying on the ground, groaning in pain, and started discussing.
Xiao Pengbo was also stunned. He didn't expect that there would be such a person by Xiao Yi's side. Last time, Jia Rulong came with two bodyguards and was beaten black and blue by Xiao Yi. Xiao Pengbo still didn't believe that Xiao Yi could do it on his own. He thought that Jia Rulong and the two bodyguards were just stupid and carelessly fell into Xiao Yi's trap. This time, he deliberately selected four bodyguards carefully. Each of these four men had committed murder and was known for their bloodthirsty and violent nature. Any one of them was a capable person who could handle things independently.
However, who would have thought that in just one round, just one round, they were all dealt with by this woman beside Xiao Yi.
Beads of sweat appeared on Xiao Pengbo's forehead.
Black Phoenix clapped her hands and suddenly turned her head towards Xiao Pengbo. Her misty eyes were full of fighting spirit. "Come on! If you want to take Xiao Yi away by force, you have to get past me first!"
Xiao Pengbo knew his own limitations. How could he be a match for Black Phoenix? He tried to steady his breathing and said bravely but inwardly timidly, "Who are you? You dare to hit a person from the Xiao family in Haicheng. Aren't you afraid that you won't be able to stay in Haicheng in the future?"
Upon hearing this, Black Phoenix chuckled and looked at Xiao Yi.
Xiao Yi also looked at Xiao Pengbo as if he were an idiot and shook his head with a smile.
"Slap!" Black Phoenix flicked her hand and took out a small black notebook from her back pocket. She skillfully waved it in front of Xiao Pengbo.
Xiao Pengbo had good eyesight and immediately saw the ferocious and powerful wolf head logo on it.
"Sizzle... Wolf, Wolf..." Xiao Pengbo was greatly alarmed and stammered, unable to say anything.
Black Phoenix snapped the notebook shut and sneered at Xiao Pengbo, "Take your people and get out! Otherwise, you won't have another chance!"
Xiao Pengbo's face turned pale. Hearing Black Phoenix's words, he felt as if he had been granted amnesty. He stumbled out of Jishitang, called for his bodyguards, and quickly got into the car and drove away.
"Master, who is that woman? We were just caught off guard by her. Let's not leave! Wait until I tear her to pieces!" A bodyguard with a relatively minor injury shouted angrily.
"Get the hell out of here! Tear who to pieces?" Xiao Pengbo slapped the bodyguard on the head, his voice still trembling. "Don't mention that woman to me again!"
The bodyguard staggered from the slap but still unwillingly asked, "W-why?"
"She's from Wolf Fang," Xiao Pengbo wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, looked back in the direction of Jishitang, and said in a trembling voice.
"Wolf, Wolf Fang?" The several bodyguards were instantly stunned.
However, in an instant, they couldn't help but feel excited. Being beaten up by someone from Wolf Fang in their lifetime was something they could brag about for the rest of their lives.
But needless to say, they didn't even think about causing trouble for Black Phoenix and Xiao Yi anymore. Just the thought of that small Jishitang made their bodies tremble involuntarily.
At this moment, Black Phoenix had been surrounded by the shocked people in Jishitang. Besides being shocked, they were filled with admiration. They crowded around Black Phoenix and chattered.
"Girl, you used Taekwondo just now, right? Which training class did you learn it from? I'll send my granddaughter there too."
"Come on, auntie. That's not Taekwondo. It's clearly Sanda. Beauty, teach me a few moves."
"Damn it, you guys should open your eyes. Haven't you ever seen martial arts? That's clearly the Twelve Routes of Tan's Leg Technique. Beauty, is your surname Tan?"
Black Phoenix didn't answer the crowd's questions. Instead, she smiled at Xiao Yi and said calmly, "I'm leaving."
After saying that, without waiting for Xiao Yi's reply, she easily pushed through the crowd, straddled the Harley motorcycle, and sped away.
"Wow, she's a heroic woman! An idol!"
Xiao Yi looked in the direction where Black Phoenix had disappeared and smiled faintly. He and Black Phoenix had already faced death together once. For such a small matter, there was no need to express gratitude.
Smiling, he beckoned the son of the coal mine owner to sit in front of the table again. Xiao Yi asked with a smile, "What's wrong with you?"
The son of the coal mine owner scratched his head, looked behind him slyly, and suddenly leaned close to Xiao Yi and whispered, "Doctor Xiao, I've got a lot of red bumps on my body recently. I checked it online, and it seems to be very similar to that Bosika tumor. Doctor Xiao, please take a look for me quickly."
"Bosika tumor?" As soon as Xiao Yi heard these words, his heart tightened. Why had he heard about this disease so frequently recently?
"Lift up your shirt," Xiao Yi said as he looked at the patient.
However, upon seeing the patient's condition, he immediately frowned. It was indeed another case of Bosika tumor.
So far, this was the fourth case of Bosika tumor that Xiao Yi had encountered. This couldn't help but make Xiao Yi feel worried.
When the son of the coal mine owner saw Xiao Yi's solemn expression, he was so scared that he was immediately stunned. With a crying voice, he asked, "Doctor, it can't be true, right? I've really got this disease?"
Xiao Yi nodded.
The patient's face instantly turned pale, and he slumped down from the stool. He was so stimulated by the news that he fainted immediately.
"Ouch, what's wrong with him?" Several enthusiastic patients wanted to step forward and help him immediately.
"Don't touch him!" Xiao Yi softly . He carefully helped the patient to the sickbed over there, laid out a disposable isolation pad, and took off his coat.
He still used the Four Symbols Acupuncture Method to force the toxins in the body to the Bladder Meridian, and then pricked the points to let out the blood.
After a while, the patient slowly woke up. Remembering the shocking news before he fainted, he couldn't help but turn pale, tremble all over, and his fingers dug deeply into his hair. He said despairingly, "It's over. My life is over."
"What do you mean it's over? You look perfectly fine to me," Xiao Yi said with a smile as he burned the contaminated blood.
"Bosika tumor! I've got Bosika tumor! I've never even visited a brothel, let alone touched drugs. How could I get this disease?" The patient beat his chest and stamped his feet, feeling extremely wronged.
When the other patients nearby heard the words "Bosika tumor", they were terrified and took a step back in unison, looking at this side in horror.
However, Xiao Yi smiled at the patient and said, "Alright, get up. I've already cured your disease."
"What?" The patient and the other onlookers exclaimed in unison.
The patient sat up half-believingly and looked at his body. To his great surprise, the tumor-like bumps that were like grapes before had now all shrunk and turned into a thin layer of skin sticking to his body.
"Ah! It's really cured!" The patient could hardly believe his eyes.
Xiao Yi helped him up and cleaned up the disposable mattress on the bed.
"I believe it, I believe it! Doctor Xiao, you're really a divine doctor, like my reborn parents. How can I thank you?" The patient was extremely overjoyed and almost incoherent.
"Here, these are three doses of traditional Chinese medicine. Take one dose a day. After you finish taking them, you'll be fine," Xiao Yi said as he grabbed the traditional Chinese medicine, skillfully wrapped it up, and handed it to the patient.
"Okay, okay." The patient took the traditional Chinese medicine, suddenly took out a large stack of money from his bag, threw it on Xiao Yi's desk, and turned around and ran away.
"Hey!" Xiao Yi stood up and called out to him, but he had already disappeared in a flash.
Xiao Yi shook his head and had to accept the money. In fact, compared with the consultation fee, what made Xiao Yi even happier was the considerable power of merit.
"Doctor Xiao, you can actually cure Bosika tumor! That's a terminal disease that has no cure in the whole world!" The crowd exclaimed.
"As long as it's a disease that humans can get, traditional Chinese medicine has a way to treat it," Xiao Yi said proudly.
"Can it cure cancer too?" The patient asked curiously.
"Of course," Xiao Yi answered without hesitation.
"Hehe, Xiao Yi is joking, right?" Several patients simply couldn't believe it.
Xiao Yi smiled softly but didn't explain too much. Whether it was traditional Chinese medicine or the practice of Taoism, everything emphasized fate and opportunity. In the field of traditional Chinese medicine, there has been a saying since ancient times: "Don't treat those who don't believe." So, Xiao Yi was too lazy to argue with others.
However, thinking that he had diagnosed two cases of Bosika tumor in just one day, Xiao Yi felt very surprised. After thinking for a while, he took out his phone and called Li Qingshan, but he couldn't get through. He called the affiliated hospital again and found out that Li Qingshan was on a business trip and attending a closed-door meeting. His phone couldn't even be turned on.
"Doctor Xiao, it's my turn to be treated, right?" A patient interrupted Xiao Yi's thoughts and diverted the topic.
However, Xiao Yi, who never watched TV, didn't know that that night, the local news in the city reported a sensational event at great length: "In major hospitals across the city, suspected cases of Bosika tumor have been 陆续 discovered in the past few days, a total of 32 people. All patients have been quarantined for observation. The Municipal Health Bureau reminds the general public to pay attention to food and hygiene safety, and at the same time, advocates a healthy lifestyle, cherishing life and staying away from drugs."
As soon as this news was broadcast, it caused two completely different reactions in Haicheng. Some people believed that Bosika tumor was a special disease that only existed among drug users and homosexuals. As long as they behaved properly and paid attention not to come into contact with such people, it should be fine. On the other hand, some people were sensitive enough to realize that this time's Bosika tumor seemed to be somewhat different. Although this disease had a notorious reputation, it was by no means a common disease. The large-scale outbreak at the same time this time might well be a mutated infectious disease similar to SARS and H1N1.
And Xiao Yi was completely unaware of all of this.
Knowing that Xiaoyue was about to get home soon, Xiao Yi prepared dinner. It was a bowl of winter melon and clam soup, a plate of cold cucumber salad, and a plate of shredded salted duck. These were all foods that could relieve summer heat and dampness, most suitable for eating in summer. Prepared with Xiao Yi's skills as a grand master of alchemy, they were naturally delicious in color, aroma, and taste, and also took into account nutrition and health.
As soon as Xiaoyue entered the door, she sniffed and found her way into the kitchen.
"Wow, it smells so good! Big Brother Xiao, what delicious food have you made this time?" Xiaoyue asked with a smile. She reached out and grabbed a piece of duck meat and put it in her mouth.
