Chapter 784 - 762: You're Sick Too
Ren Feng's face was calm. He nodded, "Alright, I'll join after I finish breakfast with them."
"Master, breakfast is ready, and the two ladies can join as well," the disciple said respectfully.
Ren Feng looked at Liou Rumei and Liang Keqing.
"Little brother, don't look at me. Yin Xingshui invited you, not me, so naturally, it's your decision," Liou Rumei said with a smile.
"Okay, thank you for your trouble."
"It's my duty."
The disciple respectfully opened the car door. Ren Feng and the others got in, and the car quickly drove off into the distance.
...
Ren Feng was a bit surprised by Yin Xingshui's invitation, but not shocked.
In fact, when he agreed to the challenge yesterday, the entire South Korea was already in an uproar.
This was a highly anticipated match.
It was not a competition between two top medical professionals, but a contest of dignity and honor between two countries.
Moreover, before the competition even started, the two countries were already fiercely debating the origins of Chinese and Korean traditional medicine. While history is history, many people are focused on the duel between the two individuals. In their hearts, whoever wins basically proves who originated from whom.
Sometimes, many people only care about the result.
So after Yin Xingshui accepted Ren Feng's challenge yesterday, it caused a huge stir.
Yin Xingshui is like an iconic figure in the Korean medical community. As long as he didn't enter the competition, even if Ren Feng won everyone else, they would still have something to cover their shame. But if Yin Xingshui lost, then the entire Korean medical community would essentially be trampled under Ren Feng's feet.
However, more people didn't think highly of Ren Feng. Although he won against Zhao Meibin and Sheng Quangong at the time, that didn't mean his medical skills surpassed Yin Xingshui's.
Yin Xingshui was considered insurmountable.
Some newspapers even worked overnight to compile a detailed comparison of the advantages of both parties, listing in detail the likelihood of each side winning. Yin Xingshui had a long list, while Ren Feng was relatively unknown, besides his victory over the two miracle doctors last night.
So, after media coverage, many South Koreans believed Ren Feng would surely lose to Yin Xingshui.
In addition, some gambling groups even set up betting pools for the match, with the odds in favor of Yin Xingshui winning at 1.1 to 1, and Ren Feng winning at 3.3 to 1.
Ren Feng's odds were three times those of Yin Xingshui's.
However, this wasn't Yin Xingshui's belief. From the moment Ren Feng used the Observation Rune Skill to diagnose the two individuals' illnesses the previous night and used the lost Ghost Gate Needle Skill during his duel with Zhao Meibin, he knew he had met a formidable opponent.
So he invited Ren Feng over for a talk.
It's just past seven in the morning now, and the autumn morning still seemed somewhat tranquil, with a chilly breeze gently brushing by, along with the sound of waves lapping against the shore by the river.
Among the row of small courtyards by the river, one was lit.
An elderly man wearing a hanbok and black boots stood at the door, with several disciples behind him.
The old man's expression was calm, as if he had been waiting for some time.
"Master, please go back inside. We'll wait at the door," a disciple suggested, seeing Yin Xingshui standing there.
Yin Xingshui shook his head, "You don't understand. No matter when, you must face your opponent head on and give them the respect they deserve."
"Even if he beat Mr. Zhao and Mr. Sheng, he may not be your match, sir."
"He is." Yin Xingshui gazed into the distance thoughtfully, "He is the greatest opponent I've encountered in my medical career."
Yin Xingshui's beard swayed in the wind, but his posture was straight, and his complexion was ruddy, clearly well-versed in health maintenance.
Not far away, a car was speeding toward them.
It wasn't long before the car stopped, and Ren Feng and Liou Rumei got out.
Ren Feng walked up with the two women, and upon seeing Yin Xingshui waiting in the wind, he felt a slight sense of respect.
"Mr. Yin." Ren Feng greeted politely.
Even if they were adversaries, the fact that the other stood waiting at the gate in the chilly wind was worthy of respect.
"Ren Feng, it's a pleasure to meet you." Yin Xingshui spoke in Huaxia Language. Though not perfectly precise, it was close enough.
"I didn't expect your Huaxia Language to be so good," Ren Feng replied with a smile.
"My family has studied Huaxia Language for generations. In my early years, I even traveled to Huaxia Country, reading the Four Books and Five Classics and numerous medical texts, greatly benefiting from it," Yin Xingshui said.
Ren Feng was somewhat surprised, "Do you really think so, Mr. Yin?"
"Learning is not something to be ashamed of." Yin Xingshui nodded.
Ren Feng nodded and said, "Then, what is the purpose of your invitation today, Mr. Yin?"
"I wanted to see what kind of person you really are," Yin Xingshui said earnestly, making a gesture of invitation. "Mr. Ren, ladies, please."
"After you, old sir," Ren Feng said to Yin Xingshui with goodwill. At least he wasn't as arrogant as other South Koreans.
Yin Xingshui led the way, with Ren Feng and the two women following. The disciples hurried inside to get busy.
"You probably haven't had breakfast yet. Why don't you have breakfast first, and we can talk afterwards?" Yin Xingshui suggested.
"No hurry, let them eat first," Ren Feng replied with a smile, "I'm not very hungry."
Yin Xingshui nodded and gestured for the disciples to attend to the two women while he led Ren Feng into a tea room.
The tea room was open, and not far away, rocks and endless waves could be seen. The sea breeze howled, giving one a sense of blending into the natural world.
Upon entering the tea room, removing his shoes, Yin Xingshui knelt by the tea table. However, Ren Feng did not kneel, as he was not accustomed to it, so he simply sat down.
"You don't mind me sitting this way, do you, old sir?" Ren Feng asked.
"No problem, just be yourself."
Yin Xingshui began making tea.
His technique was very skillful. After the green tea was brought to a boil, it was poured into cups, repeating this process three times, and the aroma of tea filled the air.
After brewing the tea, Yin Xingshui handed a cup to Ren Feng, "This type of tea is called Genmaicha. It has a calming effect and should help with some of your health issues."
Ren Feng raised an eyebrow, "Do I have any health issues?"
"Your skin is dry, there's a sinister aura gathering at your glabella, there's a faint hint of blood-red in your eyes, and your mouth carries a hint of fire, indicating you're likely experiencing internal heat now. Of course, this includes heart fire, Mr. Ren, you are somewhat impulsive and easily agitated," Yin Xingshui observed.
Ren Feng laughed, "Yin Xingshui, your skills in the Observation Rune Skill are truly refined."
"I dare not claim to compare to you, Mr. Ren," Yin Xingshui said.
"But from my point of view, you have health issues as well, Mr. Yin."
