Everyone looked back and saw a short old man wearing a Taoist robe and a goatee standing in the crowd.
Its appearance is unremarkable.
Very ordinary.
"Who is this old man?"
"He actually wants to challenge Dr. Ye. Has his brain been kicked by a donkey?"
"You don't even urinate and take a photo of yourself. You're so ugly and you challenge Dr. Ye. Isn't this an insult to Dr. Ye?"
"Get out!"
Everyone thought this old man was trying to please others.
The old man seemed not to hear the scoldings around him and stood still, looking at Ye Qiu on the stage with a calm expression, and said again: "Ye Qiu, I want to challenge you."
The audience was furious.
"Hey, why don't you get out of here, do you want to get beaten?"
"Get out now, or I'll take action."
"Where's the security? Get this guy who is disturbing the order out of here!"
"..."
Ye Qiu glanced at the short old man and found that he didn't seem to be joking. He raised his hand to signal everyone to be quiet, and then asked politely: "Old sir, I don't know what to call you?"
The short old man said proudly: "I'm Xu Liu!"
Xu Liu?
Is it Xu Liu, the leader of the four great masters of Chinese medicine?
Ye Qiu was stunned, then quickly came down from the stage, walked to Xu Liu, bowed, and said: "Junior Ye Qiu, I have met my senior."
"Hahaha, no need to be polite." Xu Liu laughed.
Discussions resounded all around:
"Who is Xu Liu?"
"I've never heard of it before."
"It seems like he has some background, otherwise, Dr. Ye wouldn't have given such a great gift?"
"I just heard Dr. Ye call him senior. Could it be that this old man is also a Chinese medicine doctor?"
Just when everyone was confused, Ye Qiu said loudly: "Everyone, please be quiet."
"Now, let me introduce to you the senior beside me."
"I believe that few people here have heard of Senior Xu's name, but as long as I introduce him, you will know how powerful Senior Xu Liu is."
"You should have heard of the four great masters of Chinese medicine, right?"
Everyone nodded.
"Then do you know who the four masters of traditional Chinese medicine are?" Ye Qiu asked again.
"It's Zhang Jiuling, Li Chunfeng, and Nie Xueliang." A middle-aged man answered loudly.
Ye Qiu asked with a smile: "You only said three, is there another one?"
The middle-aged man stopped talking because he didn't know.
At this time, an audience member asked: "Dr. Ye, who is the other great master of Chinese medicine?"
Ye Qiu said: "There is also a Chinese medical master who is far away in the sky and right in front of you."
Suddenly, everyone's eyes fell on Xu Liu.
Is this old man the master of Chinese medicine?
It doesn’t look like it!
Ye Qiu said solemnly: "Senior Xu Liu is the first of the four great masters of traditional Chinese medicine today. His medical skills are very good, but he is low-key and few people know about it."
"Senior Xu, you said you wanted to challenge me just now. Were you kidding?"
Unexpectedly, Xu Liu shook his head.
"I have lived in seclusion in Laoshan for ten years and have no interest in worldly affairs. This time I came out of the mountain just for you."
"I have been practicing medicine for most of my life, and this is the first time I have seen such an outstanding junior."
"Ye Qiu, please accept my challenge!"
After Xu Liu finished speaking, he cupped his fists with both hands and bowed down to salute Ye Qiu.
"Senior, please don't be polite. You are doing this to make this junior lose his life!" Ye Qiu stopped Xu Liu and said with a wry smile: "Senior, you and I are both Chinese medicine practitioners. There is no need to decide the winner, right?"
Xu Liu raised his eyebrows: "What, you look down on me?"
Ye Qiu hurriedly explained: "Senior, you have misunderstood. I am not good at medical skills, so I am afraid I will not be my opponent."
Xu Liudao: "If you are not good at medical skills, wouldn't all the Chinese medicine practitioners in the world be useless?"
Ye Qiu: "..."
"Stop talking nonsense, will you accept my challenge?" Xu Liu has a short temper and speaks very directly.
Ye Qiu said: "Senior, you became famous earlier than me and your medical skills are better than mine. I am definitely no match for you. I don't think there is any need to compete. I will just admit defeat. Do you think that's okay?"
snort!
Xu Liu snorted heavily and said: "If there is no competition, just give up. Ye Qiu, do you look down on yourself, or do you look down on me?"
"I came all the way to Jinling just to challenge you."
"If you don't accept my challenge, I will die in front of you now."
Ye Qiu was speechless.
Why doesn't this old guy act according to common sense?
He had long heard from Zhang Jiuling and Li Chunfeng that Xu Liu had a weird temperament, and when he saw him today, it turned out to be true.
Seeing the determination on Xu Liu's face, Ye Qiu thought to himself that this battle might be inevitable.
then.
Ye Qiu said: "Since the senior insists on challenging the junior, then the junior will accept it."
"I just hope that during the competition, the seniors can be merciful and don't let the juniors lose too ugly..."
"Ye Qiu, don't be so vain in front of me."
"Excessive modesty is pretentious."
"I know your strength, and it is definitely not inferior to mine."
"So, I won't be merciful during the competition. If you really respect me, then don't be merciful to me."
"Don't be afraid that I will lose, and I won't be afraid of losing either."
"Doing your best is the greatest respect you can give me."
Xu Liu said: "Ye Qiu, if you defeat me, I promise that from now on I will go out to save lives and heal the wounded, and contribute to the revitalization of traditional Chinese medicine."
"If you lose, then I will continue to live in seclusion and not care about worldly affairs."
"Whether you can let me out of the mountain depends on your ability."
Ye Qiu asked: "Senior, when do you think the competition is appropriate?"
"It's better to choose a different day than to hit it, let's do it now!" After Xu Liu finished speaking, he walked to the stage in a swaggering manner.
Ye Qiu had no choice but to follow Xu Liu onto the stage.
First row of guest seats.
The three masters of Chinese medicine were all whispering.
"What is Xu Liu doing?" Li Chunfeng said: "I went to Laoshan a few days ago to ask him to come out and deal with Li Zhengxi together, but this old guy didn't give me any face, so why would he challenge Ye Qiu now?"
Nie Xueliang said: "Did Xu Liu see Ye Qiu's medical skills and want to compete with Ye Qiu?"
Zhang Jiuling glanced at Xu Liu and said: "Xu Liu has lived in seclusion for many years and has long lost his competitive spirit. I suspect his purpose is the same as ours."
"Old Zhang, you said Xu Liu..."
Before Nie Xueliang finished speaking, Zhang Jiuling nodded.
Li Chunfeng was so angry that he cursed: "This old guy Xu Liu is really good at stealing the limelight. It makes me so angry."
Nie Xueliang said: "Lao Zhang, Lao Li, we can't wait any longer. If we wait any longer, the limelight will be taken away by Xu Liuyi."
Li Chunfeng then said: "We can't wait any longer, Lao Zhang, please say something!"
Zhang Jiuling said: "Act according to the plan."
At that moment, the three masters of traditional Chinese medicine suddenly stood up and said in unison: "Ye Qiu, I want to challenge you!"
