The longed-for village system

Chapter 157 Healing and Living: As Long as the Direction is Right

"What? Xiao Chen, are you serious?"

Dong Qing was surprised that Chen Qing would say such an amount; this price was something she had never thought of before, nor dared to imagine.

And this is too casual about charging money! The first one, Yong Ge, only got 100,000, the second one, Zhu Xun, only got 200,000, so will the third one get 300,000? Are capable people really that eccentric?
"Of course, I'll just help you with a few acupuncture needles, this price is enough."

If it weren't for the system's lottery, Chen Qing might have provided free treatment, because strictly speaking, he was practicing medicine without a license, and if others found out he was charging money, he would likely be in serious trouble.

So his plan was to donate the money after receiving it, so that even if others found out he was practicing medicine without a license, they wouldn't be criticized too harshly.

"Thank you, I owe you a huge favor. If you ever need my help in the future, just let me know, and I'll be there for you anytime."

"Okay, I've come out ahead. The top two officials at the Central Bank owe me favors. I'll be able to do whatever I want in Beijing from now on."

"Yes! You can fly in the sky."

Dong Qing laughed so hard she was shaking. It was the first time she had ever lost her composure like this in front of someone she had only met two or three times. For some reason, she felt very relaxed when she was with Chen Qing, and unconsciously forgot that they hadn't known each other for very long.

She finally understood why Zhao Xiaogu established a relationship and got married after knowing him for only a few days. There are many talented men, and there are many interesting men, but there are really not many men who are both talented and interesting.

Moreover, men like Chen Qing are even rarer. If I were still single, I would definitely pursue him too. I have to say that Zhao Xiaogu has a really good eye when it comes to choosing men.

"What are you two talking about? Dong Qing, why are you laughing like that?"

After finishing her call, Zhu Xun came to the two of them. She had been surprised by Dong Qing's behavior while she was on the phone. This woman was usually quite refined and dignified, and she rarely laughed like that, even with her longtime partners.

"No, it's just that I found Xiao Chen to be really interesting. Now I finally understand what that netizen meant."

"What?"

"God was unfair when He created man. When He created us, He was afraid of making too much, so He shook the spoon a few times with each spoonful. But when He created Xiao Chen, He was afraid of making too little, so He made every spoonful overflow, and He even couldn't help but add a few extra spoonfuls."

Zhu Xun smiled and nodded in agreement with Dong Qing's words. Although he hadn't known Chen Qing for long and this was their first meeting, he was still happy to hear her.

She had seen many talented young people on CCTV's stage, and many of them were considered geniuses, but she had never seen anyone like Chen Qing before.

He first gained recognition because he sang on the show "Back to Field," which revealed his talent for songwriting. Then, through teachers He Jiong and Huang Lei, people learned that he was also a highly skilled carpenter.

If that were the case, people wouldn't be too surprised, since there are quite a few people who sing as a hobby and are also good at writing songs. But the skills he showed next left everyone in awe.

He was proficient in poetry, bone setting, and painting; he could even treat cancer, which was considered an incurable disease. No wonder everyone called him a person favored by God. In the end, Chen Qing still couldn't invite Dong Qing to dinner. After dealing with things here, Dong Qing returned to Beijing overnight. As the top anchor of CCTV, her schedule was not easy. The fact that she could take the time to accompany Zhu Xun was only because the station director was considering Zhu Xun's need for medical treatment.

For the next two days, Chen Qing continued to go to the hotel every noon to treat Li Yong. This time, he brought Zhu Xun with him. Chen Qing was satisfied with the treatment results, especially since Li Yong could now get out of bed and walk around in a wheelchair, although he still needed to be pushed by Ha Wen.

On Tuesday noon, Chen Qing went to the hotel with his acupuncture kit as usual. As soon as he arrived at Li Yong's room, he heard people chatting inside. He recognized one of the voices very well.

"Teacher He, what brings you here? Isn't filming supposed to start tomorrow night?"

Chen Qing entered the room and asked Teacher He if he had misremembered the filming time, or if he himself had made a mistake.

"Hey! Speak of the devil, and he appears! We were just talking about you!" Teacher He greeted Chen Qing with a smile as soon as he entered, and then answered Chen Qing's question, "It's true that filming doesn't start until tomorrow night, but I came here to visit Brother Yong and Sister Xun. I'll be staying at the Mushroom House tonight."

His friend came here to receive treatment from Chen Qing on his recommendation, so he felt obligated to come and see how things were going. He would have come much earlier if he hadn't been so busy. Now, the results were better than he expected.

In just one week, Li Yong was able to speak again. Although his movements were still a bit clumsy, things looked promising.

"What are you talking about me about? Teacher He, you wouldn't be talking badly about me behind my back, would you? Even though I'm married, I still need to maintain my image."

"Hey! What do you take me for? Even if my own brother isn't good, I can still praise him to the skies. Someone like you, Xiao Chen, I can praise to the heavens. What you're saying is too hurtful to your brother."

Teacher He understands himself, and I understand Teacher He just as well! Don't be fooled by his current aggrieved and depressed appearance; it's all an act.

"Teacher He, stop acting. With acting skills like that, you won't get an S card." Chen Qing bluntly exposed Teacher He's acting skills, and then went to Li Yong's side to take out acupuncture needles. "Let me give you acupuncture first!"

Seeing this, Hawen helped her husband lift his clothes, and everyone in the room stopped talking, all eyes turning to Chen Qing.

After two or three minutes, when the needles were removed, everyone spoke. Of course, the first to speak was Teacher He, who was somewhat incredulous that Chen Qing could treat cancer with just a few needles.

Before seeing it, he thought Chen Qing would insert dozens or even hundreds of needles at once, after all, this is a terminal illness, how could it be so easy to treat? But he didn't expect it to be just a few needles, he just counted and there were only 7 needles.

"Is this all it takes for Xiao Chen? Seven acupuncture needles can cure cancer? What's going on? Is cancer treatment really that simple for you?" Teacher He felt that her understanding of the world had been greatly impacted.

"Right? What else?" Chen Qing didn't take Teacher He's shock to heart and still had a matter-of-fact expression. "Actually, treating illness is the same as being a person and doing things. If you are in the right direction, things will often become simple. On the contrary, no matter how hard you try or how many steps you take, it will be useless. So seven acupuncture needles are enough."

At first glance, no one thought much of what Chen Qing said, but upon closer examination, they realized that it was indeed true. If you are going in the wrong direction, no matter how much effort you put in, it will be in vain. But if you are going in the right direction, you can succeed in one step.
