Sweeping Through Martial Arts: My Clone's Extraordinary Talent

"Dr. Shen, you're finally back!"

Upon seeing Shen Han, Ou Chengguang hurriedly spoke.

"Isn't today a day off?"

"Manager Qian is ill, and the other doctors are all helpless. The owner asked me to come and invite you."

"Okay, I'll go take a look."

Upon hearing this, Shen Han didn't delay and hurriedly returned to the Xuanhu Medical Clinic with Ou Chengguang.

The butler's room.

The old butler, Qian Cheng, collapsed onto the bed, utterly exhausted. His body was twitching slightly, and his face was deathly pale. The people around him were as anxious as ants on a hot pan.

"Xiao Shen, you're here!"

Han Zhengming pinned his hopes on Shen Han.

Feng Hao leaned closer and said, "Senior Brother Shen, I'm powerless to help; I can only rely on you."

Although he had been promoted to a formal physician, he was unable to cure Qian Cheng's illness, for which he felt very guilty and was well aware of the huge gap between himself and Shen Han.

"Manager Qian, give me your hand."

Shen Han plopped down on the edge of the bed and took Qian Cheng's pulse. "Hmm, this illness seems..."

Han Zhengming hurriedly asked, "What's wrong?"

"Wait, Manager Qian, please bear with it a little longer. Let me use acupuncture to diagnose you."

Shen Han took out a silver needle and inserted it into Qian Cheng's vital acupoint.

A moment later, he pulled out the silver needles: "Master Han, Manager Qian's symptoms are exactly the same as Elder Huang's a few days ago. He has been poisoned, which has damaged his spleen and stomach, causing him to be weak all over and have a splitting headache. If he is not treated in time, it will endanger his life."

"How could this happen?"

Everyone was taken aback.

Why would someone be poisoned when they were perfectly healthy?

"Junior Brother Ou, go and give the medicine to Manager Qian immediately according to the prescription."

Shen Han wrote down a prescription.

Ou Chengguang took the prescription without hesitation and immediately began to carry it out.

One hour later.

After taking the medicine, Qian Cheng recovered significantly.

His complexion is visibly improving.

Shen Han then massaged his uterus to improve blood circulation: "Manager Qian, think carefully, how exactly did you get poisoned?"

Qian Cheng frowned: "To be honest, I don't know either..."

Seeing that Qian Cheng was no longer in mortal danger, Han Zhengming finally breathed a sigh of relief, and said seriously, resting his chin on his hand, "First it was Old Huang, then it was Manager Qian. I feel that something is amiss."

"What? Old Huang is like me too?"

Qian Cheng couldn't believe it.

Feng Hao hurriedly replied, "Yes, it was Senior Brother Shen who treated Elder Huang's illness three days ago."

"this……"

Qian Chengming understood the gravity of the matter and said, "A few days ago, I did have a meal with Elder Huang at Tianxiang Restaurant. Could it be that the food and wine there were poisoned?"

Tianxianglou!

Shen Han had been to the largest restaurant in Sanhe County a few times. Two months ago, to celebrate the doubling of the clinic's profits, the owner of the clinic, Han, even invited their chef to cook a banquet at the clinic.

"Xiao Shen, what do you think about this?"

Han Zhengming looked at Shen Han.

Although he was the owner of the museum, at this moment, he sought Shen Han's opinion.

This shows Shen Han's current status in the medical clinic.

Shen Han said in a deep voice, "This is no small matter. I think we should go to Tianxiang Tower to investigate."

"That's what we'll do!"

Han Zhengming accepted Shen Han's suggestion, "Xiao Ou, go to Tianxiang Tower now and secretly observe and investigate to see if they make any strange moves."

There was a reason why he arranged for Ou Chengguang to go.

As an apprentice, Ou Chengguang could remain inconspicuous and disguise himself as a customer, reducing the chances of being discovered. If Shen Han or Zhan Chaoyang were sent, they would be recognized without a doubt.

"Yes, Master!"

Ou Chengguang accepted the order and left.

"Manager Qian, you should get some rest first. After dinner, you can take another dose of medicine, and that should be enough."

"Thank you, Dr. Shen."

Qian Cheng was deeply moved.

Back then, Shen Han was just a lowly handyman, but now he has clearly become the backbone of the clinic. The clinic's reputation and profits in the past two months were all brought by Shen Han, and now he has even saved his life. How could he not be grateful?

"Manager Qian, please don't be so polite. We're all family."

Shen Han smiled, greeted Han Zhengming and the others, and then left the clinic.

……

Meanwhile, in Zhuque Lane, Dongcheng District.

Two warriors carrying long swords were hiding in a corner, talking in hushed tones.

They were none other than Lin Fan, the young master of the Lin family in the capital, and his master, Zhu Zhaoxing.

"Young Master, this trip to Sanhe County was absolutely worthwhile!"

Zhu Zhaoxing leaned close to Lin Fan's ear and chuckled.

Lin Fan smiled slightly: "That's right, my father looks down on me, his illegitimate son, and always makes me do unimportant things."

However, this time it turned out to be a lucky accident.

Master, you didn't mishear the conversation between Master Hong Tongtian and his wife last night, did you?

Zhu Zhaoxing covered his mouth and laughed, "Young Master, don't worry. I can hear clearly the details of my tendon-refining cultivation. The Iron Fist Martial Arts School investigated earlier, and the black brick is near Zhuque Alley."

As a result, they lost several top experts, including their chief disciple and guest advisor.

"Is that person really that strong?"

Lin Fan asked.

Zhu Zhaoxing snorted, "I reckon that person came prepared, using traps and mechanisms to turn the tables and kill the martial arts school's people. Young master, don't worry, with me here, Black Brick will be a piece of cake!"

"But Zhuque Lane is so big, how are we going to find it?"

"Hong Tongtian said that his Iron Fist Martial Arts School destroyed a manor a few days ago, and while searching for treasure, they found a long red whip in the manor."

"What is the connection between this and the black bricks?"

Lin Fan asked, puzzled.

Zhu Zhaoxing lowered his voice: "Coincidentally, that long whip is the personal weapon of Guan Shu, a guest elder of the martial arts school."

The martial arts school staff immediately interrogated the still-living slaves in the manor.

From the servants, they learned that the long whip was bought by the young master of the manor from an ugly man.

"Such a thing is true!"

"Therefore, I conclude that the owner of the black brick is an ugly man who lives in the Zhuque Lane area!"

"Excellent, this greatly narrows down the scope."

Lin Fan praised it highly.

"Good, Fan'er, we'll spend the next two days in Zhuque Lane, determined to find that ugly man." Zhu Zhaoxing immediately made a throat-cutting gesture. "Anyone who's ugly, regardless of their appearance, kill them without mercy!"

"By the way, Master, I have a question. Why isn't Master Hong Tongtian making a move?"

"That old guy ran into trouble while practicing his skills."

Zhu Zhaoxing sneered, "So, this is exactly the opportunity for us, master and disciple!"

Fan'er, your physical constitution is poor, and your martial arts progress is too slow. You are currently only at the Skin Refining Realm.

"Once we obtain that black brick, I will definitely work hard to figure out how to use it to help you quickly improve your cultivation!"

"Thank you, Master!"

"No..." Zhu Zhaoxing said, "Over the years, your father has never liked you, nor has he liked me. We must seize this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to turn things around!"

"So what do we do now?"

"Don't rush, first ask around among a few people to find out where the ugly man is."

"Master, look, someone's coming from over there."

Lin Fan gestured towards the distance with his lip.

Yes, a young man was calmly walking towards them.

"He's the one!"

Zhu Zhaoxing pulled Lin Fan and stepped forward, just managing to block the man's path.
