Chapter 9 Inner Qi Formation, Making Money To Pay Off Debts

  • That night.
  • Jiang Yan walked alone on the street.
  • Physically and mentally exhausted, covered in wounds.
  • He stood on the overpass and lit a cigarette. As his gaze swept across, the street was brightly lit, bustling with people, and the lively city seemed to have no place for him.
  • He sighed, his eyes suddenly welling up with tears.
  • It seemed like when he diagnosed Xiaonannan before, there was a flame burning in his eyes.
  • He was suddenly surprised to find that his eyes could actually see things a kilometer away.
  • Jiang Yan stared in amazement at a distant apartment building, verifying it. Despite the obstacles of the night, he could see clearly inside the apartment.
  • Jiang Yan rubbed his eyes in disbelief.
  • It wasn't an illusion.
  • As long as he concentrated, the entire city seemed to shed its disguise before his eyes.
  • Divine Eyes!
  • Jiang Yan's heart raced, and he couldn't help but want to shout out loud. These divine eyes were the opportunity to change his destiny.
  • He rummaged in his pocket and pulled out a golden business card.
  • Donghai Lin Family!
  • He tried dialing the number on the card.
  • The phone connected, and the person on the other end politely said, "Mr. Jiang, is that you?"
  • "It's me!"
  • Jiang Yan replied, feeling embarrassed. "I want to try what you mentioned today."
  • The other party seemed to have anticipated it, calmly saying, "Then Mr. Jiang, please make a trip tomorrow. I will send the address of the Lin's residence to Mr. Jiang later. Whether it succeeds or not, the Lin family will be grateful to Mr. Jiang."
  • "Okay, understood."
  • Jiang Yan hung up the phone, feeling relieved.
  • If he could help the Lin family, he wouldn't have to sell his house!
  • He immediately hailed a taxi back to the pharmacy to treat Miss Lin from the Lin family, but he was missing something.
  • Inside the pharmacy, it was a mess.
  • Today, he was harassed for debts, and Jiang Yan couldn't rest. He pulled out one drawer after another, grabbing handfuls of Chinese herbs.
  • His sense of touch was excellent, no need for weighing.
  • Just by grabbing with his hands, he could determine the amount.
  • As a self-taught traditional Chinese medicine practitioner, Jiang Yan couldn't even distinguish Chinese herbs before, but now he was familiar with them.
  • No matter what herb it was, just one look and he could quickly recall its effects, formula, and even the quality, real or fake.
  • It was as if all of this was his innate memory, effortlessly, without any need for thought.
  • He prepared a tonic soup.
  • While boiling the soup, he controlled the heat continuously, mastering the timing precisely.
  • After the soup was ready, a strong medicinal fragrance filled the air.
  • Although it was the same soup he had often made before, it now had a miraculous effect of turning decay into a miracle.
  • With precise heat and herb combinations, the soup was clean and transparent, presenting an amber-like brown color, completely different from before.
  • "Whether it works or not depends on this!"
  • Jiang Yan took a deep breath and drank the medicinal soup in one gulp.
  • What he lacked was not anything else, but "internal energy".
  • The key step he took in treating Xiao Nannan was to open up her acupoints with internal energy.
  • The body's internal energy is stored in the meridians. If one does not deliberately cultivate and accumulate it, only a small amount will be difficult to release.
  • After drinking the tonic soup, Jiang Yan used silver needles to regulate his own energy, in order to accumulate essence and energy in the meridians.
  • The next morning, Xu Lili called.
  • Jiang Yan answered the call, before he could speak, Xu Lili asked eagerly, "Have you made a decision?"
  • Jiang Yan decisively said, "I've decided, the house cannot be sold."
  • There was silence on the other end, obviously very disappointed.
  • Jiang Yan comforted, "Lili, don't worry, I am thinking of ways to raise money. We don't have to sell the house to solve this."
  • Xu Lili's voice turned cold, "Jiang Yan, I have really misjudged you. You always say you are willing to do anything for me, even willing to sacrifice your life. Now I just ask you to sell a house, and you have this attitude. How can I trust you in the future?"
  • She choked up, full of grievances, "Since you don't want to help me, there is no need for us to continue. Bring your household registration book later, we will go to the Civil Affairs Bureau to handle the procedures."
  • Jiang Yan hurriedly said, "Lili, calm down, I really have a way. Even if it's one million, two million, or five million, I might be able to raise it."
  • "Jiang Yan, is it fun to deceive me like this? You're so broke that you had to borrow money from my mom, and you still have the nerve to say you can raise five million? Did a donkey kick your head last night?"
  • Xu Lili disdainfully hung up the phone, not believing him at all.
  • Jiang Yan stared at his phone, feeling a pang in his heart.
  • Why did he have to borrow money from his mother-in-law? It was all because his brother-in-law had squandered all his savings.
  • Xu Lili only cared about her brother, without any sympathy for him.
  • He retrieved the medicine box left by his father from under the bed, blowing off the dust and wiping it clean.
  • Xu Lili didn't believe in him, but he was determined to give it a try.
  • With the divine eyes given by the ancestral spirits and the Seven Star Needle Technique of the Flame Emperor, he had confidence in himself.
