Chapter: 316
Shi Tianzi nodded, but instead of personally performing the treatment, he stood beside the bed, pointing out what the young woman should do.
On the bedside table, a silver needle set was placed, and the woman was taking out the silver needle to administer it to Song Lao.
Her technique was extremely refined, even better than that of old doctors with 20-30 years of experience, which was no wonder why people from Song's family trusted her to treat their elderly despite her young age.
This young woman's appearance is indeed not bad, not just because she is elegant and charming, but also because there seems to be a hint of magnificence between her eyebrows, regardless of whether it's her physical appearance or her temperament, which can be considered extraordinary.
However, what Leaf Chen saw was not this woman's appearance, but rather her inner being.
Because he had already discerned that when this woman administered the needle, she could actually harness some true energy and combine it with her own, which is to say she is a half-way spiritual practitioner.
According to the "Nine Heavens Classics" records, Chinese classical Taoism has five branches passed down from antiquity, respectively, mountain, medicine, fate, appearance, and divination.
In the cultivation practices of these five branches, there are some true energies, which can be considered as having some degree of accomplishment.
Leaf Chen could immediately tell that Shi Tianzi and his granddaughter were among the "mountain" branch practitioners who focus on medical skills first and then martial arts, after which they would engage in joint practice.
However, even if Shi Tianzi's family had practiced medicine and martial arts together, it was still just a mortal physical body, limited to what mortals can do with true energy.
But Leaf Chen had already transcended his mortal form through spiritual cultivation, and his physique had long surpassed that of ordinary humans, making him an unparalleled existence among the five branches of Taoism.
The "true energies" cultivated in the five branches of Taoism are different from the "spiritual energy" within Leaf Chen's body, although they differ only by one character; in reality, it is a vast and profound difference.
It's like saying that coal and diamonds are different, although both have the same origin; coal can only be used as a material with limited energy and low price, while diamonds are the refined essence after being purified, absorbing a large amount of energy, extremely hard, and priced several thousand times higher.
Not many Taoist practitioners from the five branches, after years of arduous cultivation, dare to hope that they can cultivate even a slight "spiritual energy".
Because, once one has spiritual energy, no matter how small it is, it can greatly enhance their cultivation and simultaneously achieve the purpose of prolonging life.
However, 99% of Taoist practitioners from the five branches never manage to cultivate even a hint of spiritual energy......
"Two esteemed doctors have worked hard." The middle-aged man from the Song family hastily said, giving his nephew, Song Yunfei, a quick nod. Song Yunfei hurriedly presented a cup of clear tea and asked the two to rest and take a break.
The young woman hastily put down her silver needle, panting for breath as she accepted the tea cup and finished it in one gulp.
Although only one-third of the process had been completed, Song's face already turned red with excitement, and his breathing became more even.
The people around him from the Song family also revealed joyful expressions, their eyes filled with reverence.
The young woman also seemed pleased with herself, giving a sly glance at Ye Chen after finishing her tea. It meant: "Look how well I'm doing it."
Ye Chen only looked and didn't speak, his face showing no expression.
In reality, if she had grasped her true energy well and reached the right fire hour, where would she need to waste so much true energy and get so exhausted?
But Ye Chen didn't need to point out anything. He didn't want to stir up this "spicy little pepper" again.
Ye Chen turned around and took a look at Old Song's injuries, only to knit his brows tightly. JrNovels.com
