Beside Yu Lin Lake in Tian Hai Medical University.
Tang Chen took out the ancestral jade pendant and handed it to Mu Xiaoxiao.
"Xiaoxiao, I love you. This jade pendant is my Tang family's heirloom and is now given to you."
Tang Chen looked at Mu Xiaoxiao expectantly, but she shook her head contemptuously:
"Don't bother me with this crap." Mu Xiaoxiao's tone was icy, "Tang Chen, we should break up. I never want to waste my youth on a poor guy again."
Boom...
Tang Chen only felt he was thunderstruck and his brain went blank.
"Why?" Tang Chen asked bitterly.
"Why? And you have the nerve to ask me why? Tang Chen, I have been with you for four years. What have you given me in these four years? We ate boxed meals and drunk sodas that cost a few bucks every day. Even if when we booked a hotel room on Valentine's Day, you had to pick up the cheapest. And now you ask me why?"
"Although our life is a bit bitter now, but I can make efforts..." said Tang Chen painfully.
"Making efforts?" Mu Xiaoxiao smiled lightly:
"If making efforts can solve the problem, why are so many people becoming mortgage slaves? Why are so many people taking loans from banks? Why are so many people homeless? Could it be that they didn't try hard enough?"
"Don't be silly Tang Chen. Do you know the life I want?"
"I want to be richly bedecked. I want a lifetime's worth of treasure. I want a Lamborghini. I want an LV brand name bag. Can you afford those?"
After saying that, Mu Xiaoxiao shook her wrist:
''Did you see this watch on my hand? It was given to me by Jiang Hao, 'Cartier Blue Balloon'. It costs two million."
"This watch alone is worth a house in Tianhai. Do you still dare to say you can afford it?
You can't afford it and you never will because you are and will always be the poor."
Mu Xiaoxiap said word by word with an ice-cold look in her eyes that made Tang Chen feel strange.
"Xiaoxiao, you've changed. You've completely changed for four years in university. Have you forgotten the vows we made back then? We swore to get into Tianhai Medical University together and intern at the First People's Hospital together. Have you forgotten all that?"
"Xiaoxiao, give me three years and I'll prove that, with my ability, I can make you happy!"
However, Tang Chen's sincere words did not impress Mu Xiaoxiao, but were answered with a cold sarcasm:
"By the time you offer me a good life, it would be ages!"
Tang Chen's heart fell to the bottom and roses in his hands were scattered all over the ground. The petals shattered piece by piece like his heart, unable to heal.
Mu Xiaoxiao left.
On the side of the road next to the campus, she got into a black Mercedes.
"Jiang Hao? I knew it was Jiang Hao!"
When he looked at the person who opened the door, Tang Chen's eyes stared. He did not expect Mu Xiaoxiao to dump him and chose the Jiang clan's boy because she really favored the rich over the poor.
"Shit!" Tang Chen's eyes were filled with blood, "Mu Xiaoxiao, you will regret it. One day I will make you kneel at my feet and repent for what you have done!"
Walking down the street, Tang Chen did not even know where he was going like a walking corpse.
After Jiang Hao sent Mu Xiaoxiao back to the dormitory, his gaze was gloomy as he looked at Tang Chen who was walking aimlessly.
"Is that your ex-boyfriend?"
Jiang Hao slapped the steering wheel fiercely and a cold smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.
As the second son of the Jiang clan, there was no shortage of women around. But for Mu Xiao Xiao, Jiang Hao still cared greatly about her.
He would never allow anyone to share a woman with him, not ever, not even once.
"Tang Chen, it's your fault for getting to know Mu Xiaoxin first!"
After saying that, he slammed his foot on the accelerator and laughed. The car flew like a lightning rod and crashed directly into Tang Chen.
"Bang!"
Tang Chen was knocked out several meters away like a kite with a broken thread. He drew an arc in the air and fell heavily on the ground. The ground was stained red with blood as if flowers were blooming.
As Tang Chen struggled hard on the ground, he saw Jiang Hao, who was not far away, holding the steering wheel and laughing freely. But his head was getting heavier and heavier!
Suddenly, a green light flashed from the jade pendant in his hand and entered between his eyebrows.
When the piercing pain came through, Tang Chen desperately used his last bit of energy to hold his head. A low roaring voice burst out from his throat.
Jiang Hao, who was in the distance, was stunned by this scene.
It was obvious that Tang Chen was already on the verge of dying. How could it be like he was about to come back to life again?
Jiang Hao knitted his brows together and prepared to hit the accelerator again. However, there were pedestrians walking by the roadside. So, Jiang Hao could only give up.
"Lucky you!"
Jiang Hao grunted and drove off with his car turned around.
However, he did not intend to spare Tang Chen.
Three minutes later, the car pulled up in a shady corner.
Jiang Hao pondered for a moment and dialed a call.
"Hey! Is that Director Wang? I'm Jiang Hao!"
"Ahhhh! Junior Jiang. What brings you to call me?"
"In a week, are there going to be a batch of interns from Tianhai Medical University at your First People's Hospital?"
"Yes, there are twenty people in this batch, all with excellent academic performance. I had a look. One of them, Tang Chen, is particularly outstanding, with straight A's in all subjects. I am going to guide him personally..."
Jiang Hao smiled coldly, "You don't need to do that. This person has offended me. Do you understand what to do?"
After a moment of silence, Director Wang nodded and said, "Okay, Junior Jiang, I understand. Please don't worry!"
"When it is done, my dad will donate a little more medical equipment to the hospital in your name."
........
Not long after the passersby left, Tang Chen finally could not bear the pain anymore. He only felt darkness before his eyes and completely passed out.
In the haze, Tang Chen arrived in a desolate world.
A stunningly beautiful red-clad woman floated in the air, hanging not far from Tang Chen. She opened her cherry lips and said:
"Fine, I'll pass on this unearthly secret to you today. I hope that when you have learned it, you'll be able to punish evil, promote good, and heal hearts.
After speaking, her long sleeves swayed lightly and her lotus root-shaped arms shook slightly. A golden page of the book flew towards Tang Chen in the air, eventually disappearing into Tang Chen's mind.
Before long, the woman's figure faded away.
Tang Chen was dumbfounded. As he felt the golden book suspend in his head, he was suddenly awakened.
"This....this is the Secret of Burning Heaven?"
A huge amount of information, like a tidal wave, filled Tang Chen's mind.
At this point, it was already four o'clock in the morning. His injury was surprisingly completely healed, and even a scar remained.
He rushed up from the ground and leaned against a large tree, sorting through the inheritance in his mind.
There were many things in the golden book, such as gold hunting and cave setting, strange stories and secret skills, ghost exorcism, and spell writing. However, Tang Chen could memorize them all firmly at a glance and began to practice them seriously.
The cultivation of the Secret of Burning Immortals made him feel refreshed. He vaguely felt that there was a powerful true energy in his body, which was slowly running, washing over his skin, and giving him a continuous flow of life.
As he casually made a seal, a golden seal with lightning broke out into the air. An ancient tree in front of him instantly trembled and its bark was exaggeratedly lifted out several meters away.
The palm marks left on the ancient tree that could be half Cun (Chinese inch, equals to three and one-third inch) deep shook Tang Chen's mind.
"This...."
Tang Chen could not believe it.
He was only at the early stage of the Tianjie Level, but this palm was already so powerful. If he broke through the Tianjie Level and reached the Foundation Establishment, then he would walk on the walls and eaves and be unbeatable.
Thinking about this, Tang Chen only felt refreshed. It seemed that the injuries and pains brought to him by Mu Xiaoxiao yesterday had been completely put behind him.
Soon a week passed.
In the early morning of this day at 8 or 9 o'clock, a total of more than twenty men and women from Tianhai Medical University boarded a bus to the First People's Hospital.
Mu Xiaoxiao was absent as she was the scheduled attending physician ordered by Jiang Hao to the hospital. She went on duty whenever she could.
Soon, the car stopped at the entrance of the First People's Hospital. Tang Chen, who had processed the internship certificate at the entrance service desk, followed a lovely nurse sister to report to Director Wang.
Director Wang handed out internship work cards to each intern, only to put Tang Chen in the last place. After everyone had left the office, Director Wang said slowly:
"Tang Chen, right."
Tang Chen nodded: "Yes!"
"Senior student at Tianhai Medical University with all A's in the major. Such grade is really good." Director Wang opened Tang Chen's internship recommendation and let out a sigh.
Tang Chen smiled and did not speak as he noticed that Director Wang's eyes seemed to dodge a bit, not daring to look at him.
Director Wang bowed his head and said, "Tang, with such a good grade, I believe you have learned almost enough in the medical university. I will not place you in the general ward. Here's the deal. A patient came in last night in a hurry. His situation is somewhat special. He is now in the intensive care unit for oxygen infusion. So, you can finish your internship there!"
Tang Chen, faintly froze, seemed to have thought of something. But he still wore a relaxed face and took the internship work card from Director Wang's hand. Then he turned around and left.
'It's only the first day of the internship and he is scheduled to go to the ICU!'
Tang Chen's eyes were gradually cold. Others might have believed it. However, for Tang Chen who graduated from medical school, he had a clear mind.
Someone wanted to screw him.
What was the ICU? Half the people who came in here ended up in the morgue, so to speak.
If this patient was an ordinary person, it would be fine. If he was someone important, who would be responsible if something happened to him?
At this moment, in Director Wang's office.
"Mr. Jiang, I've arranged for that Tang Chen to go to the ward of the daughter in Luo's Family. Our hospital's expert said that this Miss Luo is suffering from a strange disease and that she will not be able to make it through tonight. Let Tang Chen be the scapegoat."
Jiang Hao nodded with satisfaction, "Good, well done."
Director Wang hung up the phone and smiled playfully.
It should be noted that the ICU was inhabited by Luo Wanru, the daughter of business magnate Luo Yinglong.
It was said that Luo Yinglong was exceptionally adept in trickery. His business empire had a massive size and spanned many areas. The Jiang clan was a bit weaker compared to his. The key was that Luo Yinglong was popular both in the underworld and the legit life. At that time, if something really happened to Luo Wan in the hospital, no one could afford to take the responsibility once this matter was pursued.
Originally Director Wang has been anxious about this matter. Now he could rest assured since Tang Chen came as the scapegoat and he should be blamed for that.
In this way, not only could he have an explanation from the Luo clan, but also please the Jiang clan. Just killed two birds with one stone.
Thinking of this, Director Wang stretched out a lazy waist freely, as if the fatigue of last night's night had disappeared.
........
At the same time, Tang could smell a strong aroma wafting out from it even three meters away outside the ICU.
The scent has a maiden's smell, and even a light sip can make his heart sway.
"This?"
At the moment when he smelled this strange fragrance, Tang Chen's face changed suddenly.
"Beauty Gu Poison?"
These three words were originally unheard of by Tang Chen. only that they were similarly recorded in the Magical Technique chapter of the Secret of Burning Immortals.
"The Beauty Gu Poison was fostered by man. Moreover, this poison could only be nurtured in the body of a woman, and the woman who carried such a poison had a foreign scent in her body until the poison was mature and the woman died."
Who in the world would have such a hatred to plant a beauty Gu poison on a girl?
Tang Chen pushed the door open. Sure enough, a group of medical personnel was circling the hospital bed in a hurry.
"Elder Yu, do something about it!" A young woman with black-framed glasses looked at the helpless Elder Yu on one side and pleaded:
"Even if it's just for Miss Luo to live a few more days."
"Alas, the young beautiful lady is always star-crossed" Elder Yu sighed as he tucked Luo Wanru under the covers:
"Assistant Li, Miss Luo is terminally ill and is in the advanced stage. Even if Gods come, it won't help."
Huh? How did that happen? Miss is only 20 years old!
Assistant Li was so confused that his face was red with anxiety.
But at this moment, a cold cry suddenly came from the crowd.
"Quack doctor!"
The ward, which had been noisy, was quiet for a moment.
"Who is it?"
Elder Yu frowned and turned back, just to see a young man with a trainee doctor card standing in the doorway.
That was exactly Tang Chen.
"Who are you calling a quack?" Elder Yu asked as he looked at Tang Chen displeased.
"You!"
Tang Chen glanced at him faintly.
"You, you call me a quack?"
Elder Yu is a famous Chinese medicine practitioner in China, known for his ability to heal hearts. His acupuncture saved lives and help thousands of people. Now he is being called a quack doctor?
"Aren't you?" Tang Chen looked at him disdainfully.
"This girl has clearly been planted with Gu poison from the Land of Miao. Although her breath is faint, there is at least a glimmer of hope. However, you say that she is terminally ill. If you are not a quack doctor? Who's a quack?"
"You!" Elder Yu was so exasperated that he could not even speak out of anger.
As the grandmaster, he is now being scolded by a young man.
"Little brother, may I ask who you are?"
Assistant Li, who had just begged, looked at Tang Chen somewhat wistfully.
Tang Chen smiled faintly and said, "I am an intern at this hospital. My name is Tang Chen."
Hearing this, Assistant Li's expectant expression visibly stagnated.
The crowd also looked strange?
Interns?
An intern? How dare you accuse Elder Yu, the grandmaster?
"Hahaha..." Elder Yu looked at Tang Chen as if he was looking at a psychopath and said, ''How dare a trainee accuse me? What qualifications do you have?"
Tang Chen gave him a cold glance and ignored Elder Yu as he walked over to the hospital bed.
Looking at this beautiful girl lying dying on her hospital bed, he felt mixed in his heart!
It was from this girl that the scent of that beauty Gu poison came.
He gently stretched out his hands, preparing to use the Secret of Burning Heaven to dispel the beauty Gu poison for her.
"Boy, what are you doing?" Seeing that Tang Chen reached out and pressed Luo Wanru's small belly, Elder Yu was startled and immediately roared.
"What am I doing? Of course, I am bringing her back to life!"
You could bring people back to life?
The crowd just thought the teenager was crazy.
No one cared if you made a joke. But the point was, how could you make a joke about Miss Luo's life?
Did you not want to live?
Even the grandmaster Elder Yu did not dare to say that he could save her life. Who on earth gave you the courage as a trainee doctor to say that?
"How arrogant!" Elder Yu said, " I'm afraid that even these chief imperial doctors from the capital city are here, they don't dare to say so. What an arrogant boy!"
On the spot, someone wanted to blow Tang Chen out, but just then a small nurse shouted anxiously:
"Elder Yu, the patient's vitals are almost gone..."
Elder Yu hurriedly went up to examine the patient and finally with a hard look on his face, he said:
"The patient's vital signs are gone. Inform the Luo clan to prepare for the funeral!".
These words were like a bolt from the blue. A young girl in her flowering years was gone for good.
The surroundings became depressingly quiet, but an untimely voice suddenly rang out.
"Nonsense!"
Tang Chen laughed coldly.
"Huh?"
"What do you mean boy?"
In the face of the incoming man's reproach, Tang Chen did not answer but looked coldly at Elder Yu:
"Elder Yu, right? Are you sure that Miss Luo has lost her vital signs?"
"Could it be judged by these few broken instruments?"
"I also would like to confirm. What is your diagnosis of Miss Lowe's condition?"
Elder Yu's face froze with displeasure as he said:
"You're questioning me?"
"Question you?" Tang Chen let out a cold laugh and said:
"You have nothing worth my questioning. You clearly misdiagnosed it."
"I misdiagnosed? Okay, okay, then, Divine Doctor Tang, you tell me. What is the result of your diagnosis?"
He did not expect this young man to be so ignorant. How could he, the grandmaster, diagnose a living person as a dead person?
"You want to know, right? Well, then I'll tell you!" Tang Chen said coldly:
"Miss Luo was suffering from the Beauty Gu poison! If the Gu poison from the Land of Miao was planted into the human body, it can make the normal human body emit a special fragrance, and......."
"Nonsense!" Before Tang Chen could finish his sentence, he was interrupted by Elder Yu: "It's the twenty-first century, and you're still working on this feudal superstition stuff. Miss Luo is pretty, so you say it's a beauty Gu poison? If Miss Luo is ugly, are you going to say this is ugly Gu poison!"
As soon as these words were uttered by Elder Yu, someone could not help but burst out laughing.
But Tang Chen did not care or answer. Instead, he reached out and lifted the quilt. He put his hand on Luo Wanru's underbelly and pressed it gently.
The crowd was stunned by this situation. Damn it. Was not it too obvious that this kid took advantage of her?
Assistant Li also frowned and was about to go up to ask about it before he suddenly heard Luo Wanru hum softly.
Then Luo Wanru slowly opened her eyes, revealing a bit of confusion, and said:
"Well, what are you...what are you doing?" Luo Wanru felt a big hand pressing on her underbelly and looked at Tang Chen with a red face.
Everyone present opened their mouths wide.
Did...did she wake up?
It should be known that all kinds of advanced medical techniques that had been used failed to awaken this beauty once since Luo Wanru had been hospitalized.
And just a moment ago, Elder Yu had already diagnosed Miss Luo as having no vital signs.
How did she come back to life?
The capability that Tang Chen demonstrated really shocked the crowd.
How could he wake her up just by touching her twice?
The first time I saw him, he was in a daze and felt a warmth on his belly, and when he opened his eyes, he saw Tang Chen's palm on his belly. At that moment she almost screamed out, but she was so weak that she did not even have the strength to resist. So, she could only look at Tang Chen with resignation.
He rubbed two more times on Luo Wanru's underbelly before Tang Chen withdrew his palm.
The fragrance of virginity emanating from her did not make Tang Chen get lost. He slowly turned his head and looked at the incredulous Elder Yu and said:
"Talking big? I have got the qualification of big talk. How about you?"
The implication was that the person you could not save was awakened by me. So, what else did you have to say?
Elder Yu blushed and bowed his head in silence.
Assistant Li was so surprised. She was awake. Miss was really awake!
Tang Chen turned his head to Assistant Li and said:
" I can save her. Make a decision in two minutes if I should save her. Otherwise, you tell Luo Yinglong to prepare for the funeral."
Although Luo Wanru was awake, the disease was not completely eradicated and she needed further treatment.
Assistant Li hesitated for a while. Although Tang Chen had made Luo Wanru revive, he was only an intern after all.
Could he do that?
"One minute to go. If you can bear this responsibility, just keep waiting." Tang Chen said.
"Let me think......."
Assistant Li could not make up his mind for a while. His eyes turned to Elder Yu on the one side. When he saw that Elder Yu also looked indecisive, he felt even more caught in a dilemma.
How could a trainee manage an illness that even Yu could not handle?
"Are you sure you can cure Miss Luo?"
As he watched Luo Wanru, who had just regained consciousness, fall into a coma again, Assistant Li could not help but become more anxious. At the moment, Tang Chen was the last life-saving straw in his eyes.
Tang Chen ignored him and just said faintly:
"Thirty seconds to go!"
"Whew!" Assistant Li took a deep breath and said, "Okay, I believe you. Everybody move. Let him handle"
"However, if Miss really has a mishap, don't blame me for not spared you by then." Assistant Li said with warning.
Tang Chen ignored Assistant Li as his gaze swept over Elder Yu. He said coldly:
"I need to save her. What are you still doing here? Get out immediately."
"You let me...out?"
Old Yu was a bit embarrassed.
"Yes, not just you, everyone out!" Tang Chen waved his hand impatiently.
"You........."
Old Yu was unable to speak out of anger provoked by Tang Chen's words. However, assistant Li had seen what Tang Chen was capable of. She wasn't too fond of this group of experts:
"Everybody out. Cut all that nonsense!"
Assistant Li drove them all out, then stood behind Tang Chen with her big boobs lifted.
"I mean everyone, including you."
Tang Chen glanced at Assistant Li.
Although she was somewhat upset with Tang Chen's attitude, Tang Chen was now her only life-saving straw and she could only obey.
