I Became a Medical Genius in the 80s

Chapter 863 - 862: Diverting Attention

Beisitian was just about to explore the meaning in that man’s eyes when the young man turned his head, as if he had just glanced at Beisitian like everyone else.Beisitian’s arrival wasn’t particularly high-profile, but she didn’t deliberately keep a low profile either. Although she didn’t often walk around outside, Tian Zhi moved around relatively more.

More people actually knew Tian Zhi than knew Beisitian, but most people knew that the head of Qingyu was a young, beautiful woman. Seeing Tian Zhi sitting respectfully beside the young woman, what more was there to guess?

Now the Shi Family openly uses Qingyu as bait to bid. Did they ever consider Qingyu’s feelings? People wouldn’t really think the Shi Family didn’t know that Qingyu’s people were here, would they? Do they take us for fools?

Some who guessed Beisitian’s identity sneaked a glance over, seeing that no one showed any surprise, and those who didn’t know might think they weren’t from Qingyu, finding it a bit dull.

The next item for auction was a bottle of talismanic water.

Bidding for talismanic water against the Mystic Doctor, that’s quite something. Some families thought this time Shi Family’s standards were quite low, or were they deliberately playing with us?

"This bottle of talismanic water is comparable to the talismanic water made from the First Xuan Talisman. It’s also an Essence Qi Talisman water that can greatly enhance a person’s spirit. It has a substantial benefits for replenishing some lost spirit. The starting bid is thirty thousand, and each increment is ten thousand," Shi Lei said with a beaming smile.

Comparable to the talismanic water of the First Xuan Talisman?

The First Xuan Talisman now specifically referred to the talismanic water given to that little girl at the exchange meeting, also created by Beisitian, the head of Qingyu...

Don’t pretend you don’t know that the head of Qingyu is right here!

Everyone looked speechlessly at Shi Lei, who pretended not to know, it seemed this auction wasn’t a serious one, but the drama was undoubtedly intense!

If after the second auction item many people began to suspect the Shi Family’s targeting of Qingyu, then by the third and fourth item, it was pretty much confirmed. The items without much contention all had various information related to Qingyu attached.

Either ’comparable to’ or ’surpassing’, this was blatantly provocative!

In contrast, the Qingyu people... it was as if they didn’t know they were from Qingyu, acting like drama queens and joining the crowd to watch the fun.

Some uninformed people were discussing these items related to Qingyu, and although they didn’t understand, the sensitive ones noticed the unusual atmosphere around them.

The knowledgeable people stopped peeking at Qingyu’s side and instead openly looked over; were they really not going to say anything about such obvious targeting?

Next...

"May I ask a question? You keep comparing yourselves to Qingyu, do you think the Shi Family has surpassed Qingyu?"

That was an interesting question, for the Shi Family is already a major family, while Qingyu has only risen in the past few years. Despite Qingyu establishing its footing in these years, the Shi Family’s heritage is profound, so in terms of overall strength, it’s indeed hard to compare.

After all, Qingyu only has Beisitian shining brightly up to now, with the others showing nothing remarkable. No one even knows the exact number of people in Qingyu.

So this person’s question immediately magnified the conflict between these two sects, clearly not with good intentions!

Everyone looked for the voice and saw this mischievous person. Beisitian and others looked over too and found that this person turned out to be an acquaintance.

Tao Hailin!

Watching Tao Hailin sow discord there, Beisitian and the others watched him expressionlessly, while Tao Hailin spoke as if he truly didn’t know them, with no pressure at all.

Shi Lei chuckled and said to Tao Hailin, "This gentleman’s question is a good one. Regarding this issue, I believe everyone knows in their heart. It’s not about who is stronger or weaker, but rather that each has its strengths."

Everyone watched him speak eloquently, all remaining silent. Wasn’t he just going on about ’comparable to’ or ’surpassing’? That wasn’t ’each having its strengths’ at all!

"In that case, how do you see the strengths of Qingyu?" Tao Hailin continued to ask.

Looking at Tao Hailin as if he were a possessed reporter, everyone found it interesting; the drama had already begun.

Enjoying the spectacle is most people’s hobby. Seeing a major family and a large sect publicly sparring is even more thrilling.

Everyone present wished they could pick up the phone and call the people from their family sects over, or invite friends over, and watch the show while munching on sunflower seeds.

Everyone’s attention was drawn to this question-and-answer session.

The Qingyu people remained silent, pretending to be onlookers, but in fact, their attention was always on their surroundings.

It seemed this was part of a plan. Since the other party didn’t intend to auction genuinely, they naturally had to use some means to attract everyone’s attention to facilitate action.

Choosing this outskirts location was partly for this reason, easy to act without attracting too much attention.

Just as everyone thought Qingyu and the Shi Family were about to clash head-on, no one noticed that the water tank at the base of the large fans around them was being filled with water.

This was a normal action, but the moment the water barrel started pouring into the tank, Beisitian caught a faint, uncomfortable smell.

She was very sensitive, and upon looking around, she found that hardly anyone noticed it; not just Tian Zhi and Wei Zhongxun, but even Desan and Qiao Hongjie didn’t notice it.

This was impressive, disguising something even from the noses of Desan and Qiao Hongjie, indicating the opponent had processed it specially.

Beisitian suddenly cleared her throat, and the courtyard quieted down immediately. It seemed that the head of Qingyu was finally about to speak.

Just as everyone thought she was going to speak, Beisitian picked up her water, took a sip, cleared her throat, and continued to watch the drama... watch the drama!

As one of the main protagonists, do you really feel comfortable sitting there watching your own show?

Upon hearing the coughing sound, the Qingyu people subtly crushed the pills on their bodies.

Considering the many innocents present, Beisitian knew the Military Department wouldn’t stand by idly, but she still quietly crushed a preventive pill, hoping it could offer some protection.

Despite the barely detectable scent, this one-time unforgettable stench was deeply ingrained in everyone’s mind.

Who would have thought this kind of thing would appear in such a place!

Beisitian frowned slightly; even if infected by this thing, the infected might not be aware of it!

Thinking of this, she couldn’t help but look at Tao Hailin; no wonder she found Tao Hailin a bit strange. Having interacted with him so many times before, this time felt out of character; she’d suspected from the start, but it turned out he was infected with this thing!

It looked like this thing had been mixed into the water tank under the large fan and then distributed along with the fan’s wind!
