A miraculous doctor descended from the heavens.

Chapter 384 There's Always a Way Out

Half an hour later, the black-plated Camry drove into the port.

Mayumoto, sitting in the driver's seat, was a little perplexed. The port stretched out endlessly, like a town, but Gu Feng only referred to it as a port without specifying its location. Where were they headed?

Until this moment, neither Mayumoto nor Yuzawa realized that Kofun was pointing directly at the Qiangji that had landed at the port.

But this wasn't because they were stupid, but because Gu Feng was completely unremarkable.

Gu Feng gives the impression of being greedy, lecherous, and glib-tongued, a complete scoundrel, even a thoroughly thuggish rogue, a world apart from those wise, brave, and righteous police officers.

If Mayumoto and Yuzawa believed that such a person was a policeman, they would rather believe that roosters can lay eggs and sows can fly.

Seeing her uncle's anxiety, Youcai asked Gu Feng, "Gu Feng, we're at the port now, which way do we go?"

"Keep walking straight ahead!" Gu Feng replied without even looking up, his eyes slightly closed.

Then, Youcai saw this guy, who had no sense of traffic, roll down the car window, stick his hand out, shake it a few times as if summoning a spirit, then pull it back in, rub his thumb, index finger, and middle finger together, sniff it, and then stick his hand out again... as if he was looking for and verifying something.

Instead of finding this scene mysterious, the rapeseed found it laughable.

Unlike Mayumoto, who was a fan of traditional Chinese medicine, she didn't believe in it at all and even thought it was pseudoscience, while only Western medicine was the real science.

Recently, she has been reading a lot of books on traditional Chinese medicine and has finally gained a general understanding of it.

Traditional Chinese medicine takes Yin-Yang and the Five Elements as its theoretical foundation, and regards the human body as a unity of Qi, form, and spirit. Through the four diagnostic methods of observation, auscultation and olfaction, inquiry, and palpation, it explores the cause, nature, and location of the disease, analyzes the pathogenesis and changes in the five internal organs, meridians, joints, Qi, blood, and body fluids, judges the waxing and waning of pathogenic factors and the body's resistance, and then derives the name of the disease and summarizes the syndrome type!

Based on the principle of syndrome differentiation and treatment, we formulate treatment methods such as "sweating, vomiting, purging, harmonizing, warming, clearing, tonifying, and eliminating" and use a variety of treatment methods such as Chinese medicine, acupuncture, massage, cupping, qigong, and diet therapy to restore the body to a state of yin-yang balance and recovery.

The positive aspect of traditional Chinese medicine treatment lies in its hope to help restore the body's yin-yang balance, while the negative aspect is that when medication is necessary to slow the progression of disease, it is also hoped that the quality of life can be maintained.

Furthermore, the ultimate goal of traditional Chinese medicine is not only to cure diseases, but also to help people reach the realm of the four exemplary figures proposed in the Yellow Emperor's Inner Classic: the True Man, the Perfect Man, the Sage, and the Virtuous Man.

When Youcai saw all this, she felt a mix of amusement and disbelief. This traditional Chinese medicine was utterly ridiculous nonsense!

If you're going to treat illness, just treat illness. Why talk about Qi, form, and spirit, or the five elements (metal, wood, water, fire, earth), or Yin-Yang balance?

Is this about feng shui or treating illness? And the final principle is even more laughable. It's ridiculous that traditional Chinese medicine can be used to cure diseases and make someone a role model. It's just too ignorant and superstitious.

All these various theories are at best theoretical, and many of them cannot be explained in a logical way or constitute rigorous scientific evidence. How different are they from superstition and religion?

Yes, Youcai doesn't believe in Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) at all. But now that her uncle has exhausted all options with Western medicine, she has no choice but to turn to TCM, hoping it might be a last resort. Otherwise, there really might be no cure.

"Stop!" Gu Feng suddenly shouted as Youcai was lost in thought.

Mayumoto, who was focused on driving, was startled and quickly braked and pulled over.

Gu Feng pushed open the car door, stepped over the highway guardrail, and walked forward.

Youcai and Ma Youben also quickly got off the car and followed.

Before long, Gu Feng stopped. He had no choice but to stop, because in front of him was a cliff, and below was the sea, where waves were crashing against the shore, splashing up spray.

Gu Feng faced the sea, spread his arms, took a deep breath of the salty sea air, and excitedly shouted, "This is it! This is it!"

"Here?" Youcai looked around; there wasn't even a place to shelter from the wind and rain. How could she get treatment here? She asked hesitantly, "Gu Fengjun, are you sure you want to get treatment here?"

"Yes!" Gu Feng nodded seriously.

"But look, there's not even a place to sit here, how can we treat patients?"

"Idiot!" Gu Feng patted her head lightly, and before she could glare at him angrily, he said, "Of course not here. Quickly find a hotel around here, a large suite like last night's, with a living room and a master bedroom."

Youcai breathed a sigh of relief. She thought Gu Feng really wanted to treat her uncle's illness in this place, so she quickly told Ma Youben what Gu Feng meant.

The three returned to the car and continued their journey.

The car moved slowly through the port and soon passed the gate of "Qiang Ji".

However, Gu Feng did not call a halt, nor did he make any indication. He continued to look around, seemingly focused on finding a five-star hotel.

He remained calm and composed, showing no sign of anxiety. However, the queen bee, who was monitoring everything, was frantic—what are you doing, passing by without even coming in?

The queen bee was so anxious in front of the monitor that she was jumping up and down. She tried and tried to suppress the urge to call Gu Feng.

Although Gu Feng is usually unruly and always tries to take advantage of her, he is by no means a brainless person. Otherwise, how could someone as shrewd as herself fall for his tricks so many times?

He must have had other plans for doing this!

Yes, that must be it!

That kid is incredibly cunning!

The queen bee, thinking she had figured things out, laughed smugly.

The car slowly moved along the harbor, but the further they went, the more anxious Mayumoto and Ayase became.

Because there isn't a single decent hotel or even a small inn around here, let alone a star-rated hotel.

That makes sense, though. This port is completely occupied by all sorts of large container factories, crude oil refineries, shipyards, and so on. There aren't even two streets, so where would you find any decent hotels?

They looked worried, but Gu Feng remained calm and composed.

But when he pulled his hand back from the window again, he frowned and said, "We can't go any further. The environment here is no longer right."

"Huh? What should we do then?" Yuzawa and Mayumoto's expressions changed.

Gu Feng shrugged nonchalantly, his meaning crystal clear—I'm only responsible for finding the place; how you arrange things is your business, not mine!

Just as the Queen Bee had guessed, the old official was indeed incredibly cunning.

He and his advisor had been to this place before. That day, they had searched for a decent restaurant and had practically turned the whole port upside down. In the end, they couldn't find a restaurant, let alone a small eatery. They had no choice but to return the way they came and found a seafood restaurant on the road before they entered the port.

That stretch of road was lined with countless restaurants and hotels, some as luxurious as others, but unfortunately, it wasn't the area that Mr. Gu had mentioned.

The place is in other people's mouths, our lives are in other people's hands, there's nothing we can do, absolutely nothing we can do.

Ma Youben could only turn the steering wheel and return the way he came, while also talking to Youcai.

They were speaking Japanese, which Gu Feng found difficult to understand and simply ignored, instead focusing on enjoying the harbor scenery.

After quite some time, the uncle and nephew finally reached a conclusion.

"Gu Feng Jun!" Youcai called out softly.

"Uh!" Gu Feng, who had almost fallen asleep, slowly opened his eyes.

"My uncle asked me to ask you, besides hotel suites, what other places would be suitable for treatment, like office suites?" Youcai asked.

Here it comes!

finally come!

The queen bee in front of the monitor was suddenly alert.

But when she heard Gu Feng's words, she couldn't help but be furious.

"Uh, an office? A place where people come and go? That's definitely not going to work. I've said it before, my acupuncture technique is very demanding and cannot tolerate the slightest disturbance!" Gu Feng shook his head repeatedly.

"No one will disturb us, it's my uncle's private office!" Youcai quickly said.

"Is the place spacious?" Gu Feng asked hesitantly.

Is the ventilation good?

"Of course, floor-to-ceiling windows with a sea view!"

"..."

Gu Feng had so many questions that the Queen Bee was getting impatient. She thought to herself, "Why are you asking so many questions? Just make do with whatever you have!"

Fortunately, Youcai answered all questions, and her answers were so satisfactory that even the picky Gu Feng couldn't find any fault with them.

After rambling on for a while, Gu Feng reluctantly agreed. As soon as Ma Youben saw Gu Feng nod, he was afraid that Gu Feng would change his mind, so he quickly started the car and sped forward.

When the queen bee saw the car drive into the big sign of Qiangji on the monitor, a huge weight was finally lifted from her heart.

The Queen Bee was now both impressed and surprised by Gu Feng.

Despite their best efforts and resources, they have been consistently kept out of the mysterious criminal organization "Qiang Ji".

Unexpectedly, when Gu Feng made his move, people were flattering him, extending warm invitations, and smiling obsequiously to invite him to visit, while he still seemed somewhat reluctant.

"A madman, absolutely a madman!" Even the queen bee, who had seen countless people, couldn't help but exclaim at this moment.
