I Became a Medical Genius in the 80s-Chapter 716 - 715: Recovery

Jiang Xin had a lot of trust in Tian Zhi, not blind trust, but because he had saved Jiang Mingzhong. If there were any ulterior motives, there was no need to wait until now.

Moreover, Jiang Xin knew that Beisitian and Tian Zhi were both doctors, the very skilled kind, so Jiang Xin really listened to Tian Zhi and just stayed by Jiang Mingzhong’s side.

Beisitian and Tian Zhi went out in the morning and hadn’t returned until now. It was already past one in the afternoon, and Jiang Xin was really hungry. Last night’s dinner had been digested with nothing left.

However, Jiang Xin was worried that no one was by Jiang Mingzhong’s side. After all, Tian Zhi had already instructed him. After thinking it over, Jiang Xin decided to wait until Jiang Mingzhong woke up before doing anything. Anyway, starving for a day wouldn’t kill him.

Just as he was thinking this, he heard a knock on the door from outside. Jiang Xin thought Tian Zhi and Beisitian had returned, and he hurried to open the door, but it was a waiter standing outside.

The waiter had an apologetic expression on his face. "I’m really sorry. Because one of our employees fell ill, there was a handover issue, and it wasn’t until just now that we realized the guest in this room had ordered lunch."

Jiang Xin didn’t care about this. As long as they didn’t chase him away, it was fine with him. The fact that lunch was prepared was already very satisfying.

The staff left, and Jiang Xin brought the lunch box inside, finding only enough for one person. Even though it was just a regular box meal, for Jiang Xin, who had not been full, it was a delicacy.

Looking at the delicious meal in front of him, he turned back to look at Jiang Mingzhong, who hadn’t eaten anything since last night...

With great effort, Jiang Xin closed the lid again and sat back beside Jiang Mingzhong. Despite his stomach growling, he didn’t even glance at the food, afraid that if he looked, he wouldn’t be able to resist.

By around four in the afternoon, Jiang Mingzhong finally woke up, opening his eyes to find Jiang Xin resting his chin on his hand, asleep by the bed.

Jiang Mingzhong was somewhat bewildered. What happened to him?

The slight movement woke Jiang Xin up with a start, and he stood up, saying, "Foster father, are you okay?"

"What’s wrong with me?"

"You fainted!"

Jiang Mingzhong frowned. How could he faint?

In a daze, he recalled starting to feel dizzy after drinking the talismanic water last night. No, not dizzy, but feeling extremely drowsy, more so than he’d ever felt before.

Jiang Mingzhong asked what time it was and was startled to find he had slept for so long!

This was certainly unusual...

Jiang Mingzhong took a deep breath, "It shouldn’t be, that stuff is so precious, there’s no reason to waste it on a stranger..."

To Beisitian, wasn’t he just a stranger?

Jiang Mingzhong knew it was an Essence Qi Talisman and was aware that there was a type of Essence Qi Talisman that made one fall asleep after drinking it. But this Essence Qi Talisman was so precious that he didn’t even dare to think about it!

But the person capable of producing such an Essence Qi Talisman was standing right in front of him. Yesterday, he drank the talisman water made by that person...

Jiang Mingzhong trembled as he took out a brush and talisman paper, attempting to use spirit like he used to, but after a long effort, nothing changed. He couldn’t help but put down the brush in despair.

"It won’t be so quick, and this wasn’t made during the Original Period," Tian Zhi said, standing at the door, looking at Jiang Mingzhong’s disappointed face.

The Original Essence Qi Spirit was exceptionally precious, especially that of his master, which would likely be used on Strawberry Mango in the future, so it couldn’t be wasted frivolously.

Jiang Mingzhong gave a bitter smile; he had too many fantasies.

"However..." Tian Zhi looked at Jiang Mingzhong, "Elder Jiang, don’t be too disappointed. Although this isn’t crafted from Original Essence Qi Spirit, its efficacy is good, at least stronger than the Essence Qi Talisman known as the First Xuan Talisman at the exchange meeting four years ago."

Jiang Mingzhong widened his eyes in astonishment. If he remembered correctly, that First Xuan Talisman was crafted from Original Essence Qi Spirit. How could Xuan Talisman’s efficacy now surpass the Original Essence Qi Talisman?

But Tian Zhi wouldn’t lie about such matters; there was no point. This somewhat overturned his past learning.

Naturally, Tian Zhi wouldn’t explain further, because this kind of Essence Qi Talisman could only be produced by his master, Beisitian.

Over the next three days, Jiang Mingzhong drank this kind of talismanic water every night, and each time he would fall into a deep sleep. The only difference was that the sleeping duration began to gradually decrease, from sleeping until four or five in the afternoon to two hours less by the third day.

This indicated that the effect of the Essence Qi Talisman was diminishing and also showed that Jiang Mingzhong was recovering, though Jiang Mingzhong himself hadn’t noticed the change.

"Accumulation of quantity leading to a qualitative change."

This was what Beisitian told him.

On the seventh day, Jiang Mingzhong understood the meaning of this phrase. After drinking the Essence Qi Talisman last night, he didn’t fall into a deep sleep. He slept like a normal person and woke up at the usual time in the morning, only feeling different once he got up.

Jiang Mingzhong excitedly took out yellow paper and a brush, not even minding that Jiang Xin was right next to him. He placed the talisman medium on the table and began talisman making, which he hadn’t succeeded in for a long time.

Jiang Xin watched as Jiang Mingzhong made a sheet of yellow paper float on that piece of cloth, staring in wide-eyed amazement. Was his foster father a deity descended to the mortal world?

Jiang Mingzhong held the completed Xuan Talisman in his trembling hand, and he succeeded... he succeeded!

"I... I... I did it..." Jiang Mingzhong laughed out loud, and as he laughed, tears streamed down.

He thought of his son.

He even deluded himself into thinking that if his spirit hadn’t malfunctioned, he wouldn’t have discovered his son’s cold-hearted nature, and if his spirit hadn’t malfunctioned, his son could have deceived him for a lifetime.

Now that he knew Jiang Fei’s true nature, it was hard for him to heal from this wound. He could only make the difficult decision to cut ties and never see him again in his lifetime. He wouldn’t go after Jiang Fei, but he wouldn’t help him anymore either.

Jiang Mingzhong gently patted Jiang Xin’s head, "Child, your foster father now has the ability to heal your leg."

This past week, he had witnessed everything Jiang Xin did. During his most difficult and downtrodden times, Jiang Xin gave him new life and meticulous care. So he decided that in the coming years, he’d spend his time with this child.

Jiang Xin hadn’t recovered from his earlier surprise. Upon hearing this, he immediately thought about the reason, "Foster father, you are truly an incredible person!"

Jiang Xin marveled sincerely from the bottom of his heart.

Jiang Mingzhong smiled slightly. Down below, not only did he have to find a way to cure Jiang Xin’s illness, but he also had to return to the Mystic Doctor Association and reclaim his past status, to provide better support to Beisitian.

"The days of repaying kindness might not be so boring." Jiang Mingzhong shook his head, then smiled warmly.

On the day he recovered, Jiang Mingzhong began practicing, reaching out to some fellow acquaintances he knew from the west. Some people, upon hearing it was him, hung up disdainfully, while others feigned concern.

Jiang Mingzhong didn’t immediately reveal his recovery, also using this opportunity to see who had genuine intentions.
