He looked back and saw an old man with white hair and a white beard, looking like a typical quack.
‘Master Dunn!
‘It’s Master Dunn from North Star Mansion three days ago.
‘Why is he here?’
Master Dunn walked over. “Don’t kill him yet.”
Rattlesnake frowned. “Why?”
Master Dunn stared greedily at Clarence. “This guy knows Thirteen Hell’s Gate Acupuncture, and he has the legendary sterling silver cross.”
“What’s that?” Rattlesnake and Datura both looked puzzled.
Clarence was taken aback.
‘How does Master Dunn know that I know Thirteen Hell’s Gate Acupuncture?
‘What’s a sterling silver cross? Is it the necklace with a cross around my neck?’
Master Dunn looked at Clarence coldly. “Don’t deny it, boy. I was there when you treated Leah.
“I wondered what you had that made you capable of saving Leah despite being so young. It turns out it’s because of Thirteen Hell’s Gate Acupuncture.”
Master Dunn looked eager. “Teach me Thirteen Hell’s Gate Acupuncture, and I’ll make sure you die fast.
“Otherwise, I’ll make your life a living hell!”
He lifted his hand and took out a black spittoon, which a black insect soon crawled out from. It looked like a mix of a centipede and a millipede.
It was ferocious and terrifying.
Rattlesnake and Datura both took two steps back.
They seemed to be afraid of Master Dunn.
Clarence raised his eyebrows. “Demonic bug?”
Master Dunn smiled darkly. “Good guess, boy. You know a little something.
“This is my baby. I have fed it blood from my heart, and it has devoured more than ten thousand venomous insects and survived.
“A bite from it makes ‘a living hell’ sound like nothing.
“You’ll watch your body rot and die.
“No one in the world will be able to save you.”
Clarence was undaunted. “Do you deserve to learn Thirteen Hell’s Gate Acupuncture?
“How dare you threaten me with this bug? Dream on.”
Master Dunn’s face twitched. “You may not be afraid of it, but what about your woman?”
He sauntered toward Miranda.
Then, he placed the black spittoon just one foot away from Miranda.
The demonic bug smelled a woman’s blood. It was so excited that it stood on top of the spittoon and hissed.
“Ahh…
“Take it away. Hurry and take it away!”
Miranda screamed and trembled. She was almost scared out of her wits.
Clarence’s eyes were red. “Let go of Miranda.”
“So you do care about her.”
Master Dunn smiled faintly. The demonic bug moved a little closer to Miranda, the tentacles at the tip of its head brushing across her cheek.
Miranda was stunned.
Clarence could not stand it any longer. “That’s enough. I’ll teach you.”
Master Dunn put away the demonic bug.
However, Rattlesnake stopped Master Dunn. “There’s no time, yet you still want to learn medicine now?
“It’s still early, so there’s still time for us to retreat. There’s no way we can escape if the Reed family shows up later.
“Kill him and leave now!”
Datura nodded too. “Killing him is indeed the best option.”
Master Dunn was furious. “What do you know?
“Do you know what Thirteen Hell’s Gate Acupuncture is?
“It’s the most powerful technique in medicine. Even if you’re wounded, I can save you as long as you have one final breath left.”
Rattlesnake seemed unconvinced. “No way. There’s no such thing.”
Seeing that Rattlesnake was doubting him, Master Dunn pointed at Clarence and ordered, “He was injured before. Come and treat him. Show him what Thirteen Hell’s Gate Acupuncture can do.”
Rattlesnake almost leaped up. “Ol’ Dunn, have you lost your mind?
“He’s our enemy. What if he kills me with the treatment?”
Master Dunn sneered. “What are you afraid of? If he does anything to you, we’ll kill his woman at once.”
Datura’s eyes glimmered. “Master Dunn has a point.
“Let him try. If Thirteen Hell’s Gate Acupuncture does heal you, you’ll get better and stronger.”
Reluctantly, Rattlesnake stepped out of the crowd and looked at Clarence. “Boy, come here.
“Just do as they say.”
Clarence walked over and glanced at Rattlesnake. “I don’t have any silver needles. How am I supposed to treat him?”
Rattlesnake grinned as if he had caught Clarence’s weakness. “I knew you were up to no good. You’re already considering a treatment plan for me when you haven’t even asked me what illness I have.
“Somebody, kill him!”
Clarence said indifferently, “You were born with albinism. You had smallpox when you were eight or nine and were bitten by a dog when you were twelve. It was on the right side of the ankle of your right foot, and you still limp a little.
“When you were in your twenties, you must have been injured from practicing martial arts as you now have a steel pin in your femur.
“You had a bone fracture in your left forearm.
“Your skull was smashed.
“Your spleen has been stabbed through.
“Because of martial arts, there are different degrees of problems with your body, liver, kidney, stomach, and heart.”
Clarence continued, “At this rate, you won’t make it past 50.”
Rattlesnake was stunned.
He looked at Clarence in disbelief.
Clarence had gotten everything right!
He had never told anybody about his smallpox or his dog bite. How could Clarence have known?
Was Clarence really a miracle doctor?
Seeing the expression on Rattlesnake’s face, Master Dunn and Datura knew Clarence was right.
Rattlesnake asked quickly. “Do you have a cure?”
Clarence nodded. “I do. We’ll make a deal.
“I’ll cure you, and you’ll let Miranda go.”
Rattlesnake grinned maliciously. “Who are you to bargain with me, boy?
“Hurry and cure me, or I’ll kill your woman right now.”
Rattlesnake seemed to have already grasped Clarence’s weakness. He threatened Clarence with just a whisper.
Clarence shook his head helplessly. “I don’t have any silver needles.”
Master Dunn stepped out. “I have some.”
Under threat by Rattlesnake, Clarence began treating him.
Clarence held a silver needle between two fingers and inserted it into Rattlesnake’s body.
“Um…”
Rattlesnake grunted.
Clarence continued to move very quickly.
Soon, Rattlesnake had a dozen silver needles stuck in his body.
After Clarence inserted the last needle, Rattlesnake spewed black blood.
Datura was stunned. Then, she grew furious. “Boy, how dare you…”
“Hahahaha!” Rattlesnake laughed aloud. His voice was loud and strong. “My internal wounds are all healed.
“Thirteen Hell’s Gate Acupuncture is amazing. I didn’t know you had it in you, boy.”
Datura looked at Rattlesnake in surprise. “You’re alright now?”
Then, she grabbed Clarence’s arm with a look of excitement. “Hurry up and treat me!”
Her body had also accumulated years of underlying illnesses. It was so painful she wanted to kill when they acted up.
Clarence looked reluctant. “Am I supposed to cure you when you’re my enemies?
“I can cure you, but let Miranda go.”
Datura jumped right over to Miranda’s side.
She pulled out a knife and put it to Miranda’s neck. “Stop with all the crap talk. I’ll kill her if you don’t treat me.”
They found that Clarence was obedient whenever they threatened him with Miranda.
Clarence reluctantly treated Datura’s underlying illnesses.
Ten minutes later.
Datura felt empowered again, all her underlying illnesses seemingly healed.
She was so excited that she took out her whip and whipped it in the air. Her internal energy was intense.
Master Dunn looked proud. “I’m right, aren’t I? Thirteen Hell’s Gate Acupuncture is powerful.
“Clarence, teach me Thirteen Hell’s Gate Acupuncture immediately.
“Otherwise, this woman is dead meat.”
Miranda quickly shook her head. “Clarence, no. Hurry up and leave. It’s yours. You can’t teach it to outsiders.”
Miranda knew Clarence’s medical skills depended on it.
She did not want Clarence to teach it to others.
Clarence had done enough for her.
Slap…
Master Dunn slapped Miranda across the face, “Shut up! One more word, and I’ll have the demonic bug drain your blood right now.
“Are you going to teach me or not, boy?”
Clarence sighed. “Okay, but Thirteen Hell’s Gate Acupuncture is so complicated and such a wide subject that you can’t learn it in a short time…”
Master Dunn sneered. “Don’t play games with me. If I can’t learn it in a short time, then you can teach me slowly.
“If you dare tell me no, I’ll kill her right now.”
Clarence had no choice but to start teaching Master Dunn Thirteen Hell’s Gate Acupuncture.
It took Master Dunn an hour to get a general idea of it.
His eyes were sparkling while his face was red, and he was trembling with excitement.
“So this is Thirteen Hell’s Gate Acupuncture.
“It’s indeed so miraculous that it can do anything.”
His face darkened again, and his eyes fell on the necklace with a cross around Clarence’s neck. “Now, give me the necklace.”
The necklace with a cross was what Clarence used to save lives….
