Chapter 72: Hu Banzhen

  Yang Fan made up his mind and personally sat in the medical hall early next morning.

  This made several doctors and apprentices in Puyi Hospital terrified, after all, he was the big boss here.

  Yang Fang had just sat down for a short while when he saw a slender and beautiful young girl walking in. He smiled slightly and said, "Sister, you're here too?"

  "Big brother, I just wanted to come to the clinic to help out."

  The newcomer was Yang Hui Xin, who had just finished with her household chores and followed over.

  Yang Fan said with a hint of helplessness: "The business in the medical hall is so deserted, and it doesn't seem to need any extra hands."

  If she were an ordinary family's daughter, they would probably strongly prevent her from showing off and strictly prohibit it. However, Yang Fan is a cultivator in the immortal world, with less restrictive thinking, more freedom and randomness.

  "I'll come over and help Big Brother and the doctors pour tea." Yang Hui Xin said with a smile, and actually took over from an apprentice, getting busy herself.

  "Miss, you... this isn't right!" The apprentice was stunned for a moment, his face also turned red, clearly not used to interacting with women.

  "Let her go."

  Yang Fan shook his head and said to the apprentice.

  Yang Fan sat in the clinic for half a time before seeing four or five wounded people come over to seek medical treatment.

  Business is unexpectedly slow!

  Yang Fan was somewhat stunned. As far as he knew, Wuliuyi Town itself was not small, with several hundred households, and there were also seven or eight villages scattered around it.

  At present, there are only two clinics in the town, and by rights, business should be very good.

  "What's going on here?"

  Yang Fan came before an apprentice and asked in a low voice.

  Yesterday he went to Lin Zhong's home, but forgot to ask about Li Baozi and Hu Banshen's suppression of his own medical clinic. Because in his eyes, whether it was Li Baozi or Hu Banshen, they were all insignificant people.

  "My lord, it's like this..."

  The apprentice didn't dare to conceal it either and whispered a few words in his ear.

  "How can this be?"

  Yang Fan's face turned even darker after hearing this.

  It turned out that this matter was related to Hu Banshen and Town Mayor Liu Deqi of the town.

  It was said that half a month ago, the daughter of Village Head Liu De-gui was possessed by an evil spirit and her condition was extremely critical, almost losing her life. However, Hu Ban-xian from Xian Ren Medicine Hall came uninvited, volunteered himself, went to Village Head's home to diagnose the illness, and saved the life of Liu De-gui's daughter.

  Thereafter, the situation of the two medical clinics in the town underwent a tremendous change.

  Pua Tiong Choon Medical Hall was once on the verge of being shut down, and there were rumors that the doctors at this clinic were irresponsible and had caused the deaths of several patients.

  Hu Banzhen, because he cured Liu De's daughter's illness, with the help of people with ulterior motives, his reputation soared, and he was praised as a famous doctor of his generation, who understood magic, medicine, and could drive away ghosts and spirits.

  Yang Fan's face showed a thoughtful expression as he followed from afar a wounded person who had just received medical treatment and medication at the Pu Ai Clinic.

  Indeed, before they had gone far, in a secluded corner, three or four ruffians appeared and blocked the injured person's way.

  "You...... you guys......"

  The injured person was a sixty-year-old elderly man. When he saw this scene, he was suddenly frightened and became incoherent.

  "Hum... old man, are you itching to die or something? You actually dared to go to 'Pu Ai Clinic' for treatment. Don't you know that this clinic is a black-hearted shop?"

  A leading figure with a fierce face and a villainous look.

  "What do you want to do..." the old man said in a trembling voice.

  "Leave the opened medicine in your hand!"

  "No way, this is what I rely on to survive." The old man clutched the medicine tightly in his arms.

  Bang!

  One of the thugs slapped the old man in the face and sneered, "This time we're just warning you. Next time you dare to enter 'Pu Ai Medical Hall', I'll make sure your worthless bones are broken."

  The old man took such a slap in the face, with blood oozing from the corner of his mouth and nose, fell to the ground, and struggled to get up.

  "Get out! This is a warning."

  The hooligan threatened him.

  "Hehe..."

  A faint sound of laughter, from far to near.

  A young man with an extraordinary air walked over, gazing at these hoodlums with a hint of a smile.

  "Who are you, looking for a fight... huh?!"

  That rascal actually recognized Yang Fan.

  "You... you're Yang Fan?"

  This is the way of the villainous and evil.

  "Hmph, what's there to be afraid of? This guy used to be like Hu Banzhen, seemingly able to use some sort of magic, but I heard he's already become a useless person."

  Another name for the Dao of the Rogue Scholar.

  Yang Fan smiled but didn't speak, helped the injured old man up, and quietly used his Rain Dew Technique to heal the old man's external injuries.

  Then a strand of cool fine stream was introduced into the old man's body, helping him clean up his internal organs.

  In less than one or two breaths, the old man's complexion returned to normal, as if he was no longer a sick person.

  Yang Fan smiled and treated ordinary people's illnesses, although it didn't improve his cultivation much, but it was simple and easy.

  Those few hooligans were stunned by this scene.

  "God... God of Medicine!"

  The old man trembled and knelt down in front of Yang Fan with a thud.

  "May I ask the great doctor's surname and given name."

  The old man said with a respectful face.

  "Hehe, I am the boss of 'Pu Ai Medical Hall' and also a pharmacist. Recently, I was away from home, which made the medical hall suffer from rumors and oppression. Now that I'm back, everyone can rest assured to come to 'Pu Ai Medical Hall' for treatment."

  Yang Fan said with a gentle face.

  Just as he was speaking, a small crowd of onlookers had gathered around him.

  "Great doctor! Thank you, great doctor." The old man was extremely grateful and was helped up by Yang Fan. He stood beside him and scolded the few hooligans loudly: "You bunch of rascals! I'm an elderly person who came to 'Pu Ai Medical Hall' for treatment, yet you resorted to such despicable means, threatening my grandson and even hitting people. Fellow villagers, friends, everyone, let's reason this out."

  "You few, who is behind you!"

  Yang Fan stared at these thugs with a stern gaze, and his body suddenly emitted an invisible pressure that made them feel suffocated.

  Under such oppression, how can a few ordinary mortals bear it in this late stage of his concentrated soul realm.

  Plop! Plop!

  These few thugs knelt down on the ground, their faces revealing a fearful expression. When they met Yang Fan's gaze, their hearts trembled for a moment, and for a time, their minds were blank.

  "Who is behind this!" Yang Fan suddenly shouted coldly, like a spring thunder, ringing in the ears of several people.

  "Yang... Young Master Yang... I'm saying..."

  One of the loafers finally couldn't bear it anymore and decided to tell the truth.

  At this moment, more and more people are gathering around.

  These people, although they are ordinary people from Wuliuyuan Town and nearby villages, are not stupid. They vaguely suspect something. Moreover, patients who have been to "Pu'ai Medical Hall" have received threats and warnings, so this matter is no longer a secret.

  At this moment, under Yang Fan's pressure, the truth is about to be revealed, and everyone held their breath, waiting for the final outcome.

  "Haha... I thought it was someone else, turns out it's Young Master Yang."

  At this moment, a strange laughter came, and several nearby thugs suddenly got up from the ground as if they had been pardoned.

  Yang Fan withdrew his oppressive aura and glanced back, only to see a thin Taoist priest holding a feather duster walking towards him from afar.

  "Fox spirit!"

  The people in the town let out a collective gasp of surprise, and many faces showed expressions of admiration.

  Nowadays in Wuliuyi Town, Hu Banzhen is not only a famous doctor of his generation but also a half-immortal who understands the art of driving out ghosts and gods. His status and position are naturally incomparable.

  "Are you Hu Banzhen?"

  Yang Fan's face showed a thoughtful expression, and he also began to size up this thin and gaunt old Taoist.

  Unlike Lin Zhong's description, this Hu Banzhen is not a Qi Refining initial stage cultivator. Judging from the aura on his body, he has just entered the middle stage of Qi Refining for a short time.

  In terms of cultivation, compared to Yang Fan, they were evenly matched.

  Yang Fan had already used his Kuai Mu Gong to conceal his cultivation at the initial stage of refining Qi.

  "Haha, I didn't expect Young Master Yang to know my humble name... Thinking back, when you were renowned far and wide, respected as the number one genius of the Yang family, I was still unknown, fallen on hard times."

  Hu Bansi smiled and gazed at Yang Fan, taking in his cultivation level. A hint of surprise flashed across his eyes before being replaced by a calm and collected demeanor.

  It's updated again, my votes...
