Daddy the Miracle Medic Chapter 19 Isn'T There A Bet On This?
Chapter 19 Isn't there a bet on this?
Nora and Chloe were already playing together now, leaving Rowan towatch the two little ones while the others went inside.
As per Lachlan's request, Erik had someone deliver a set of silverneedles.
Caelan then lay down and took off his own mask.
Before "exposing" Lachlan, he was still very cooperative.
After taking off the mask, Erik was moved by the appearance of his oldfriend.
Even Reeva, who had been with her grandfather all year round, felt achill and heartache!
After all, Caelan wouldn't easily let his granddaughter see his trueappearance.
He himself knew how terrifying that was!
Caelan's facial features were twisted! The bridge of his nose was slantedto the left, his chin was tilted to the right, and even his dental arch wasexposed.
On both sides of the cheeks, there were two shocking circular scars!His face was completely unrecognizable and unbearable to look at!Reeva covered her mouth, and a mist rose in her eyes. Seeing hergrandpa like this, she felt extremely uncomfortable inside.
If someone can really cure her grandpa, let alone make her strip naked,even sleeping with him will be fine.
But she absolutely didn't believe that this scammer can do it.
Caelan himself didn't believe it either, lying there with a cold tone andsaying, "So? Do you still think you can cure me now?"
Reeva spoke coldly, "You still have time to admit that you're a fraud. Ifyou lay a finger on my grandfather and it doesn’t work, theconsequences will be more than you can handle. Think about it!"People like Lachlan were nothing new to her after all these years. Theywere in it for the money, fame, or to gain favor with her family for otherreasons.
But none of them had been able to cure her grandfather's condition. Infact, they couldn't even make a difference.
"Of course he can be cured! Mr. Bates" condition is mainly due toblockages and ruptures in his facial meridians causing his features tobecome distorted.” Lachlan remained calm as he spoke.
"Hmph! That sounds easy enough,” Reeva sneered
Erik stood silently on the side. He wanted to see if Lachlan was really asskilled as Clifford claimed or if he only knew one massage technique."Old hero, you might feel a little itch later on but bear with it!" Lachlandidn’t waste any more words and pulled out a silver needle beforepiercing Caelan’s facial acupoints.
Reeva was surprised by how confident Lachlan appeared when he tookaction without hesitation. It made her unsure of what would happennext.
Upon seeing Lachlan’s first needle go in, he held the silver needle for amoment before moving on to the second. During this time, he infusedhis own dragon energy through the silver needle into Caelan’s facialacupoint.
While he could use his hands to infuse Nora with dragon energy toease her symptoms, treating Caelan required precise control of the flowof dragon energy through the use of a silver needle.
This was why he held onto the needle and spaced out each insertion foran extended period of time. Once inside Caelan’s acupoint, the dragonenergy flowed along specific meridians, repairing and clearingblockages.
The dragon energy that surged from Lachlan’s left kidney nourishedand strengthened his physical body - it was no wonder that Nora wasable to come back from near death with such powerful life force withinher.
"Hmph! You call yourself a miracle doctor? It takes you so long just toinsert one acupuncture needle! Can't you do any better than this? Ifnot, get lost!" Reeva coldly scolded Lachlan while staring at himskeptically.
Even Erik looked doubtful as there were several minutes between eachinsertion, which made it seem clumsy and unfamiliar. However, as soonas Reeva finished speaking, Caelan spoke up with an uncertain tone,"Using needles to transfer energy? Is this... using needles to transferenergy?”
Immediately after that statement came out of his mouth - despitepreviously having no hope or even resistance towards this treatment -Caelan shouted at his granddaughter, "Reeva! Be quiet! Don't disturbhim!"
While others could only see Lachlan's slow movements as being“clumsy,” Caelan personally felt every single strand of heat flowingthrough him which brought about an overwhelming sense of shock!This young man was actually using a silver needle to transfer energyinto him?!
Although he had never heard of such methods, as a warrior, Caelanunderstood how incredible it was!
Reeva was stunned for a moment; she didn't expect her grandfather toscold her for this fraudster.
At this moment, Lachlan said seriously, "Old hero, please don't speakand don't move!"
"Oh! Okay! Okay!"
Caelan always said that he didn't want to be cured, and that this facewhich was neither human nor ghost was a badge of pride for him.
But in reality, only he himself knew that these words were just self-consolation under desperation.
Didn't he want to take off his mask? Didn't he want to see the lightagain?
Over the years, he had completely given up hope.
However, at this moment, Lachlan showed him a glimmer of hope!Therefore, Caelan with a difficult personality obediently agreed twicelike a good child at this moment, then closed his mouth and didn'tmove.
Next, as Lachlan slowly pierced down with each stitch, an astonishingscene unfolded!
First, the scars on Caelan's face began to fade, and then thosecontorted features gradually realigned to a noticeable degree rightbefore their eyes.
The dragon energy within Lachlan's body was gentle, but whenactivated by the silver needle and entering Caelan's body, it appearedsomewhat domineering!
"This... this isn't an illusion, right?"
Reeva blinked her beautiful eyes and muttered to herself in disbelief,still too afraid to speak loudly.
"This isn't medicine, it's pure magic!" Erik exclaimed, shaking his head indisbelief.
Time ticked by slowly as Lachlan carefully inserted twenty silver needlesinto Caelan’s face. Throughout the process, Caelan felt a mixture ofnumbness, itching and pain on his face. But being a seasoned veteranwho had weathered many storms in life, he gritted his teeth andremained still
An hour later...
Caelan stared at himself in the mirror with trembling hands. Despite allthat he had been through in life, tears welled up in his eyes as he sawthe transformation before him.
"Haha... is that really me? Is that old man staring back at me from themirror?” Caelan burst out laughing uncontrollably, throwing caution tothe wind and disregarding any sense of dignity or composure.Looking closely at himself again, he noticed how much better he lookedcompared to before - not only were his features more symmetrical butalso smoother and younger-looking. Even scars on both sides of hischeeks had faded significantly.
In this moment of euphoria and liberation from decades-longemotional burden weighing down on him like a dark cloud overhead,Caelan felt like a new person altogether.
No one could experience the kind of ecstatic joy that seemed to clearaway the clouds and reveal a sunny day, except for him.
"Grandpa..." Reeva choked up a bit.
The more her grandpa acted like this, the more Reeva could imaginehow much pain he had been living in for so many years. At thismoment, she was both happy and sad
Her beautiful eyes looked at Lachlan with a hint of gratitude.
"Hehe, am I still a good liar?" Lachlan laughed and teased when he sawthe performance of these two generations.
"What's so great about it? It's not completely cured yet." Reeva heldback tears and refused to admit how amazing Lachlan was.
"Well, your grandpa's condition is quite serious. The blockage in hisveins has caused deformation in his facial bones. He won't be able tofully recover from just one treatment. He'll need another one after amonth," Lachlan nodded honestly.
Just then, Caelan who had vented his emotions walked towards Lachlanwith big strides and bowed down!
Lachlan was taken aback by this sudden gesture and quickly supportedhim to prevent him from kneeling down.
"Mr. Bates, what are you doing?"
"Doctor Willis, please forgive my previous rudeness and negligence!You cannot imagine the pain I have endured over these years with thishalf-human, half-ghost appearance. What kind of suffering I have hadto endure? I bow down to you as an elder!" Caelan said excitedly.Lachlan shook his head speechlessly and said, "You did it for thecountry and for all people's injuries in Priocia (the country where theyare living). Without heroes like you sacrificing their lives and sheddingblood, how could we have peace in our country today? Therefore, it isonly right that I treat your injuries. Besides, I am not treating you forfree; your granddaughter made a bet with me.” As soon as he finishedspeaking, Reeva standing next to him blushed so much!
