The Extraordinary Urban God of Medicine-Chapter 289 - Are You Blind?
Chapter 289: Chapter 289 Are You Blind?
“What are you even worth?”
The moment these words were uttered, the entire room was shocked!
Keep in mind, the disciple of this Feng Shui Master from Hong Kong Island was sought and recruited by the Lin Family using their connections and a generous sum of money to address some Feng Shui issues they were facing.
Now, being openly humiliated by Huang Xiaolong seemed somewhat inappropriate.
However, most of the people present knew about Huang Xiaolong’s temperament.
Not to mention a Feng Shui Master, Huang Xiaolong had fought alone against the ‘Four Young Masters of Binhai’ at the charity dinner without giving face to anyone, attracting all the attention; he is a fearless character…
Given this, even if Huang Xiaolong decided to directly slap the Feng Shui Master, no one would think that’s a boundary he couldn’t cross!
“You… you… General Lin, is this person a junior of your Lin Family?” The disciple of the Feng Shui Master, shaking all over with anger, stood up and looked at Lin Jianfeng with a pale face.
This person knew the influence of the Lin Family in Binhai, and even the whole of Huaxia, and was still wary in his heart. If Huang Xiaolong really was a member of the Lin Family, then he would need to weigh his actions carefully.
Lin Jing, both vexed and amused, spoke to Huang Xiaolong. “Little Long, can you tone it down today? Show some respect for me, don’t make a spectacle. This man is a Feng Shui Master from Hong Kong Island, ‘Master Ren’, a very talented young man, you shouldn’t insult him.”
“Oh… Got it, Sister Jing,” Huang Xiaolong mumbled. “How strange it is nowadays, any stray cat or dog can call themselves ‘Master’… This, Master, when did it become so cheap to be a Master?”
Lin Jianfeng calmly replied. “Master Ren, this gentleman here is an honored guest of our Lin Family… now, Master Ren, our Lin Family has collected a few Feng Shui Magic Artifacts, and since you have come from Hong Kong Island today, we hope you can appraise them for us.”
Lin Jianfeng cleverly diverted the conflict between Huang Xiaolong and Master Ren without making a sound.
Master Ren couldn’t press the issue further, either. He glared menacingly at Huang Xiaolong before sitting back down and recovered his haughty demeanor, laughing, “Bring them here then. I’ve seen many Feng Shui Magic Artifacts, even consecrated Buddhist treasures, and I have never misjudged one.”
With a faint smile, Lin Jianfeng clapped his hands. Immediately, four young women dressed in antique cheongsams, each holding a tray, came forward.

Each tray was lined with red silk, each bearing an item.
Master Ren cleared his throat and stood up, with hands behind his back, stood in front of the four cheongsam-clad girls and began to inspect each item on the trays.
Lin Jianfeng laughed. “Master Ren, my old man likes to collect Feng Shui Magic Artifacts. These four items were ones that he spent a lot of money on, but despite having some Feng Shui Masters inspect them, we still don’t know what they are. I suspect that my father was tricked and bought some junk.”
While speaking, a probing look appeared in Lin Jianfeng’s eyes.
It seemed that he also wanted to see if this famous Feng Shui Master from Hong Kong Island had the real ability.
The first tray contained a small drum with fine textures on its skin.
The second tray held a hand-sized bottle with a few runes engraved on its surface.
The third tray had an antique yellow paper charm.
The fourth tray held a rusty bronze mirror.
Master Ren began to examine each item.
However, it didn’t take long for his brow to furrow deeply, as if he had encountered a difficult problem.
“These… these…” Master Ren picked up each item, carefully inspecting each one, appearing as though he was worried about missing any detail.
The room fell silent, everyone watched Master Ren with expectant eyes.
Keep in mind, Old Master Lin had spent close to one hundred million to collect these four items!
Just based on his intuition, he was certain that the items were genuine treasures, Feng Shui Magic Artifacts. However, even though the Lin Family had invited many Feng Shui Masters to appraise them, including some from famous families, none of them could identify what they were.
In fact, some Feng Shui Masters directly determined that these supposed Feng Shui Magic Artifacts were all junk, and that Old Master Lin had been duped!
At this moment, Huang Xiaolong glanced at the four trays and said to Lin Jing in a low voice, “Sister Jing, these four items… hehe, your Lin Family really struck gold.”
“Huh? Little Long… You know about Feng Shui Artifacts?” Lin Jing was surprised. She had witnessed Huang Xiaolong’s extraordinary talent in artifact appraisal at the charity auction, but… normal artifacts and Feng Shui Artifacts were completely different domains, like well water and river water.
Huang Xiaolong replied with a secretive smile, “Sister Jing, I won’t say anything for now, let’s see what this so-called Master has to say.”
After a good ten minutes, Master Ren finally turned his gaze to Lin Jianfeng, shaking his head slightly, his eyes full of mockery. “Hahahaha… General Lin, it seems your Lin Family has been tricked. These items have no trace of spiritual energy, let alone any magical fluctuations… They aren’t even regular antiques, they’re just junk! The worst kind of junk! I wonder, how much money did the Lin Family spend on these so-called ‘Feng Shui Magic Artifacts’?”
Upon hearing this, from Lin Jianfeng to the rest of the Lin Family, everyone’s face was filled with embarrassment.
In truth, they had long suspected that these four items were all worthless trinkets. The reason they asked Master Ren to appraise them was purely out of a scintilla of hope.
Now that Master Ren had questioned them directly, the Lin Family felt incredibly ashamed and humiliated.
You need to understand that the Lin Family are the supreme rulers of Binhai. They have always been the first to act in every situation and have never faced a setback. Although they only spent about 100 million on these items, proving that they had bought fakes was not only a financial loss but an unbearable humiliation.
Lin Jianfeng, being a straightforward man, did not try to hide anything. “My father spent about one hundred million to purchase these four items.”
“Well, you paid one hundred million for a lesson. In the future, don’t act rashly. Money is a small matter, the Lin Family is a wealthy family, and face is of utmost importance.” A smug expression appeared on Master Ren’s face. “Just throw them all away.”
“This guy… He’s way too arrogant!” Lin Jing was displeased, her face full of irritation.
Huang Xiaolong looked at Lin Jing and smiled, “Sister Jing, don’t listen to his nonsense.”
After saying that, Huang Xiaolong spoke loudly, “Only a blind man would say that these four items are junk…”
All eyes in the room turned to Huang Xiaolong.
“Hahahaha… What are you talking about? Could it be that you know how to appraise Feng Shui artifacts too? Hahahaha… You’re being completely absurd! For a commoner like you, it’s better not to spout nonsense in front of me!” Master Ren angrily rebuked.
Huang Xiaolong slowly stood up, looking seriously at Master Ren, “You’re a blind man.”
