The World's Greatest Troublemaker

Chapter 56

As the magistrate rushed into the room, the old lady shouted.

"Why are you making such a fuss?"

The Chang'an magistrate approached the old lady and asked.

"Mother. Are you alright?"

"As you can see, I'm quite alright."

"No. But why did you suddenly say you wouldn't receive treatment?"

The old lady asked what he meant.

"Who said I wouldn't receive treatment? I said I would change the physician who is treating me."

"Pardon?"

At those words, the magistrate looked to the side. And he immediately knew who his mother was talking about.

"Is there a reason you must change? Is there any problem with the treatment of the Divine Physician Valley..."

"There is only one reason. It's because these people are better."

Although it was something to be reluctant about with the parties present, the old lady spoke frankly. Since she was the daughter of a general's family, she was more used to speaking directly than beating around the bush.

"Oh. Is that so? They say he is a divine physician who can even revive the dead, so his skills must be great."

The magistrate had also called the physician, half-believing and half-doubting. Although the physicians from the Divine Physician Valley had come, they had not been able to produce any particular results. Believing the words that she would get better soon and enduring it was only for a day or two.

So he had inquired here and there and called a famous physician. In that process, he had also invited Daoist Master Chongun, who was known to be a master and also had knowledge of medicine.

"Magistrate. Didn't we tell you? You will see the effects soon. And when the Valley Lord comes, you will be able to recover."

One of the physicians from the Divine Physician Valley said. The Valley Lord of the Divine Physician Valley would arrive soon. And he had also informed the magistrate that he seemed to have found a way to solve the old lady's illness.

"That's enough. I gave you a chance and time, but what did you do? There was nothing special, was there?"

The old lady scolded him sternly.

"That's..."

The physician from the Divine Physician Valley looked at the magistrate.

"I heard the story, and there was a reason for everything. Please take a look at this."

The magistrate took out a scroll from his bosom.

"What is this?"

"It was sent by the Valley Lord of the Divine Physician Valley."

The old lady began to read the writing on the scroll.

It described the old lady's illness, and a solution was also written. It was a problem caused by cold energy, and looking at what was written, it seemed that the cold energy had accumulated for a considerable time.

It was quite similar to what Mok Wigun had said a little while ago. There were some different points, but considering that he had not yet examined her directly, it was understandable. Besides, it was added that such parts were just speculation and that he had to see it himself to know the details.

"The one called the Valley Lord seems to know medicine quite well. The ones here are incompetent and only know how to be arrogant."

"What do you mean by that? How could we..."

"Shut up!"

The old lady shouted.

"Do you think I was quiet because I didn't know what you were doing? I pretended not to know to see your character."

"Mother. Please calm down. It's not good to get angry."

And he turned around and said.

"You all be quiet. If my mother gets angry one more time, I will not forgive you."

When not only the old lady but also the magistrate said that, the physicians shut their mouths tight.

But the magistrate, who was about to talk with his mother, realized that it was uncomfortable with them there. So he told them all to leave.

"Everyone, step back. I will talk to you separately after I finish talking with my mother."

At those words, the attendants took the physicians, Pyon Juksu, and Mok Wigun and left. When the room was cleared, the magistrate asked.

"From what I see, the contents sent by the Divine Physician seem to be appropriate. What do you think, mother?"

The Divine Physician Valley is a group of physicians. Like the sects of the martial artist, they receive education and training from a young age, and the one with the most outstanding medical skills becomes the next Valley Lord. And the Valley Lord is called the Divine Physician. In the Central Plains, the only one who can use the title of Divine Physician is the Valley Lord of the Divine Physician Valley.

"Seeing that the opinions are similar, I think both sides have grasped the illness properly."

"Did Physician Pyon also make the same diagnosis?"

"He did. And the treatment method was also similar."

The scroll sent by the Divine Physician had a treatment method written on it, which was concluded after reviewing the records passed down in the Divine Physician Gate.

The Divine Physician's opinion was this.

He would have to examine her himself to know, but there had been a patient with similar symptoms in the Divine Physician Valley. A very long time ago. It was not an illness that could be easily cured, and the illness would gradually worsen. The treatment method required a master with hot yang true energy and an elixir with yang energy. With the secret acupuncture of the Divine Physician Valley, she could be cured. It was written like this.

"Is that so? Then wouldn't it be unnecessary to change the person in charge?"

The magistrate asked cautiously. The Divine Physician Valley is an influential organization. Who in the world is not sick? So it was natural that the influence of the Divine Physician Valley, which consistently produced excellent physicians, was strong. There was no need to have an uncomfortable relationship with such a Divine Physician Valley.

"I like the people from Physician Pyon's side more."

"Is that so?"

The magistrate wanted the Divine Physician Valley to continue to be in charge if possible. So he persuaded her again.

"Mother. The Divine Physician is bringing a spiritual pill now. If you take that and receive treatment, you will get a little better."

What the Divine Physician was bringing was Wudang's Supreme Purity Pill. The best spiritual pill that was said to be difficult to obtain even in Wudang.

"Supreme Purity Pill? Isn't that a spiritual pill that I've only heard of in rumors?"

At the words 'Supreme Purity Pill', the old lady wavered for a moment. Who in the world wouldn't waver? It was the Supreme Purity Pill. It was a spiritual pill that was said to be a treasure among treasures, along with Shaolin's Great Return Pill.

"They are showing that much sincerity, so how about leaving it to the Divine Physician Valley? I will strictly talk to the ones who are here now and discipline them."

But the old lady soon shook her head.

"Hmm. That's troublesome. I've already said I would entrust it to them..."

The magistrate noticed that his mother's tone had softened compared to before and said.

"Then how about I listen to both sides and then decide?"

"Hmm... If you really want to do that, then do so. But listen carefully to Physician Pyon's side as well. I think they are a better choice."

The old lady, considering the magistrate's position, yielded.

"I understand. I will listen carefully and then judge."

The magistrate heard about what had happened so far from his mother. Because he had to know that for sure to make a judgment. After hearing the story, he came out of the room. And he headed to the room where the physicians were.

When he entered the room where the two hostile groups were gathered, the atmosphere was, as expected, very cold. It seemed they hadn't exchanged a single word since coming here together earlier.

"I stopped by to hear a little."

The magistrate said that his mother's condition had improved and then asked the physicians from the Divine Physician Valley.

"What have you been doing so far?"

"The fact that she has improved now is also thanks to our consistent management."

"And we have to examine her. It could just seem like she's temporarily getting better."

The physicians were busy making excuses. But since it was a plausible excuse and a professional area, it was ambiguous to say anything. The physicians were skilled in this kind of thing.

But was the magistrate an ordinary person? He asked Pyon Juksu and Mok Wigun what the physicians had said.

"What do you think of that story?"

If there is a professional content, you can just have the people who know it well fight among themselves. What the magistrate had to do was to watch the process. If you watch their words and attitudes, you can find out things that the parties themselves don't know.

At the magistrate's question, Mok Wigun answered.

"As for the management, it seems there's no need to talk about it since it had no effect. And the opinion that it might be a temporary improvement will be told by time. We'll know by looking at the madam's condition in the future."

A confident attitude. Besides, the opinion was also very concise and clear. If the Divine Physician Valley's side felt like they were making excuses, this side felt like they had conviction. He could see why his mother had chosen this side.

But the magistrate was not pleased with the current situation. He had wanted the Divine Physician Valley to handle it well somehow, but they were being completely pushed back. So he gave them another chance.

"What do you think of that opinion?"

"It may be too late if we just watch. We have to check her condition right now."

The magistrate, since it had come to this, decided to make it clear and move on.

"If there is nothing strange after checking her condition? If she has really gotten better, will you concede?"

If he did this, the Divine Physician Valley would not be able to raise any objections. What could they say when they were pushed back because their skills were lacking?

At the magistrate's words, the physicians contemplated for a moment. The two exchanged a few words and then answered.

"We will do so. If that is really the case, we will entrust it to these people."

"Alright. If there is a problem, the Divine Physician Valley will continue to be in charge. How about it?"

The magistrate said, looking at Pyon Juksu and Mok Wigun.

"We're fine with it. Let's go and check."

What was there for Pyon Juksu and Mok Wigun to be reluctant about? Of course, they agreed, and the magistrate headed to his mother's room again with the physicians.

The old lady, with a much brighter and more energetic appearance. The physicians from the Divine Physician Valley took the old lady's pulse and began to check her condition. They were slightly surprised and also tilted their heads. They tried to find out what Mok Wigun had done, surprised by his measures, but it seemed it wasn't working well.

After doing that for a long time, they finished the examination, and the physicians opened their mouths.

"The qi meridians are unstable."

"The flow is not natural. It seems we have to take measures."

What is this again? They were suddenly doing something ridiculous. But the magistrate was surprised and asked.

"What? Is that true?"

"Yes. It seems the flow of qi has been artificially blocked, and that could cause a problem."

The way they were acting was a sight to behold. They mixed a suitable amount of truth with lies that would make their opinions advantageous. At that, the magistrate looked at Pyon Juksu and Mok Wigun and asked.

"What is this?"

"It's a natural thing."

At Mok Wigun's answer, the magistrate was surprised again.

"A natural thing?"

"She's a patient, so wouldn't her pulse be unstable? The reason the flow is not natural is because we have taken measures to prevent the illness from worsening."

At that, the physicians from the Divine Physician Valley stepped forward as if they were attacking.

"That's ridiculous. We have never heard of blocking the flow of qi like that."

The two physicians, with so much to say, spewed out that the measures were wrong without resting.

"There is a problem, so we have to put it back."

He had barely suppressed it, but they were going to touch it? That's like trying to kill someone. It was clear that they knew what Mok Wigun had done. Then they would naturally know that it's not good to touch it.

'They know that and are still making such a fuss? Even though the patient could be in danger?'

On top of that, one of them was even about to place a needle.

"You can't. If you touch it without knowing, it could be a really big problem."

When Mok Wigun tried to stop him, the guys became even more spirited and chattered.

"Seeing him like that makes him even more suspicious."

"We have to do something quickly."

Mok Wigun strode forward and grabbed the cheek of the chattering guy.

"Aie-le-ne-e-geu-a-na."

Even with his mouth held, he chattered something. Mok Wigun put more strength into his grip and pulled the guy's face towards him.

"Hey. A physician is playing with a person's life?"
