Chapter 190: A monkey's show
Stranger:" Who the hell do you think you are to receive me? Where is Guo Peng? Haven't you notified him that, I, Doctor Lao have arrived?"
Hearing that shout Guo Peng immediately seemed like a startled chicken, and said,
Guo Peng:" Sorry Gentlemen, but I have to go, and receive him personally."
Tianlong Yun didn't like much this treatment, especially after what happened earlier, but he really needed that herb, and stealing it would be too much of a bother.
So he decided to show patience and lay low like he had until now. He was really pissed with himself for acting like this, but it was something needed at the moment.
He didn't have enough personal strength and enough foundation to deal with the big snakes. He was just the overlord of a fairly big city.
Seeing his expression, Doctor Song not wanting any troubles said softly,
Doctor Song:" Master, Doctor Lao is one of the best-proclaimed doctors in our province. His only drawback is that he is too arrogant."
Hearing what Doctor Song said Tianlong Yun was speechless. He didn't know what to think anymore, these lowly humans acted so high and mighty just because they had a particle of power.
And he, a Royal Dragon was acting so low-key and against his nature. He really hated the fact that he had to hide right now.
Even in this place, he had discovered some bugs similar to those at the Plaza Hotel, there was no place where EITS couldn't enter.
Thinking like this Tianlong Yun decided to watch on the show, and taking a deep breath he said lightly,
Tianlong Yun:" Oh, really? Then let us go and see the skills of such a proclaimed doctor."
Tianlong Yun's voice seemed light and relaxed, but Doctor Song could already feel that a storm was lurking around him at the moment.
Not being able to refuse the words of his master, Doctor Song started walking towards the direction, that Guo Peng had left to receive Doctor Lao.
It didn't take long for them to enter the big saloon, where Guo Peng was receiving his big guest. Apparently he was trying really hard to pacify Doctor Lao, but this guy seemed like a firecracker that already had been fired.
Seeing Doctor Song and Tianlong Yun approaching them, his sly brain worked. He decided to direct this guys anger and arrogance, towards the rivalry between the two doctors, and he said innocently,
Guo Peng:" Doctor Lao, I am really sorry for my earlier insolence, it's just that the newly renowned Doctor Song has also decided to honor me with his visit, and check my son's condition."
Saying those words to Doctor Lao was like adding gasoline to a burning fire, but it was ok, as long as Guo Peng himself and his sick son, were the ones who benefited from this fire.
The truth was that Doctor Lao had taken a huge hit from Doctor Song recently, normally he was the best doctor in the province, and people like Doctor Song should wash his footwear.
But after the news about Doctor Song discovering a cure for the new virus was spread, his popularity started falling sharply. People didn't ask for him anymore but for Doctor Song.
So hearing that Doctor Song had arrived at such a place, and was going to check, and try to cure, the same patient as he was, he was infuriated at first.
But then thinking about the situation better, wasn't this the best opportunity to show the whole world, that he was many times better than his new rival?
Thinking like this he could calm down, and with a sly smile he turned towards the newcomers, and said full of mockery,
Doctor Lao:" Oh the new star of our country Doctor Song is in here? It's a pleasure to meet you, Mister Star, my humble name is Lao Ting, is a pleasure to meet you."
While he introduced himself to Doctor Song he didn't even deign to look at Tianlong Yun beside him. At the same time, Tianlong Yun was looking at him just like we watch a monkey in the zoo, this guy was too funny.
Doctor Lao seemed like a more than middle-aged guy, with small squinted eyes behind his glasses and a skinny appearance.
In reality, he had surpassed the 50-ies but apparently he had planted his hair and colored them black, to look young and not show his true age.
Deciding that it was a waste of time dealing with this guy, Tianlong Yun didn't say anything and just continued to look at this skinny monkey's play.
Seeing Tianlong Yun's reaction, Doctor Song was a bit relieved. He didn't want to deal with this kind of person. He missed his quiet days of just working at the hospital.
On the other hand, Guo Peng was a bit disappointed, that he couldn't provoke Tianlong Yun and learn something over his origin, and his true role in here.
But deciding to focus on the most important issue at hand he said to the doctors with a kind of pleading tone,
Guo Peng:" Honorable doctors, how about you have a look at my son first?"
Hearing him call both of them 'honorable' Doctor Lao felt that his values had dropped, being mentioned in the same name as Doctor Song.
And once again full of mockery continued,
Doctor Lao:" Of course, of course, but I don't think all people deserve to be called honorable, and most importantly not all doctors are the same. In my opinion, just myself here is enough."
Saying that he immediately followed Guo Peng, with the thought of finishing this job as soon as possible and show to everyone that he was the best doctor in the province.
Doctor Song finally couldn't handle it anymore and was showing signs of being fed up with this idiot. But he was startled feeling Tianlong Yun hand over his shoulder, and say,
Tianlong Yun:" Doctor Song you should let the monkey play his show, and not disturb him if you want your audience's attention."
Doctor Song didn't immediately understand Tianlong Yun's words, but he felt ashamed that a young man like Tianlong Yun, was showing more composure, and patience than he did.
Like this, they followed behind Doctor Lao towards the room where Guo Peng's son was hospitalized. It was clear that Guo Peng hadn't spared his money when his son's life was in peril.
His room seemed like a hospital room, from the future, with all the apparatus' and conditions. Inside the room, there were several people watching over him, there were three ladies and a young lad.
The first lady and the one closest to the boy seemed like a ghost at the moment. Tianlong Yun couldn't deny that she must be a beauty normally, but right now her eyes were swollen and red, and her hair was like she had been electrified.
The second one seemed like a younger version of Guo Peng, she had long brown hair and beautiful green eyes.
Her curves were like a mountain road, and really good. But the surprising thing was that the one stunned by her looks wasn't Tianlong Yun, but Doctor Song.
It was truly a surprising event that didn't escape Tianlong Yun's notice but he didn't say anything at the moment. He continued to look at the other people in the room.
The other woman inside the room, or more precisely the young lady inside the room, seemed like a mix of Guo Peng and the first woman that Tianlong Yun saw.
The only guy besides the sick Guo Peng's son was his son in law. He seemed like a good-looking and warm guy in appearance, but Tianlong Yun could feel a dark aura coming from him.
Tianlong Yun's senses were warning him to be careful of this guy. Even though Tianlong Yun couldn't feel anything weird or odd with him, he still felt that there was something wrong with him.
But Tianlong Yun didn't say anything, he just continued playing his role as Doctor Song's assistant. But there was one person who seemed like he couldn't bother with the people present.
Doctor Lao seeing the people present, was thinking that having an audience for what was about to happen, was the best thing it had happened to him today.
With this thought in mind, he approached Guo Pengs sick son with large strides and said arrogantly,
Doctor Lao:" Mister Guo Peng, I am starting immediately because I have a really tight schedule for today."
It seemed like he wanted to show that he was a really important person. On the other hand, Doctor Song and Tianlong Yun were looking at him from the side, with a calm expression.
One of them didn't know the importance of this visit, not caring much about fame. The other one was concentrated on checking the body of the sick person, with his spirit sense.
But he didn't care much, what these peasant losers did anyway, because that was what Tianlong Yun and Doctor Song were for him.
With these thoughts in mind, he approached the patient and started to check his body and his vitals. The patient's heartbeat seemed normal and the blood and everything else was flowing smoothly, but he was in a comatose state.
Then concentrating on the blood flow, Doctor Lao found out that there was some kind of a hole inside the patient's heart.
At first, it was unnoticeable but later any doctor would find it and discover how dangerous it was, because the blood getting out of it, was forming a clot over one of the primary veins.
A lot of doctors had tried to stitch it or block that in some kind of way, but the pressure of the blood flow seemed abnormal, and if they blocked it the blood would rupture his veins and arteries.
Even the famous doctor of the province Doctor Lao reached the same conclusion. There was no mistake in it. But he had to show that his diagnose was perfect and said
