Chapter 1654: Chapter 1667: A Miracle Appears

Lin Mu drooped his face, looking helpless, and said, "Also, will it kill you to stop undermining me for a while?"

"Oh please, you don’t even have a stage to stand on, do you really need me to tear it down?"

"..."

"Hah, young man, thank you for your kindness." At this moment, Luo Chenghai spoke up, "Unfortunately, this illness of mine is a chronic ailment, I’ve already missed the best treatment period. I’ve seen many famous doctors, but none could help, and as it drags on, even having surgery in the United States doesn’t offer hope of recovery..."

"It’s fine, there’s still time, no harm in taking a look!" Lin Mu felt it was necessary to make his presence felt in front of Sophie, so he immediately curled his lips into a smile, moved a small round stool, sat in front of Luo Chenghai, grasped his slightly atrophied calf, and softly kneaded it, "By the way, Uncle, what did those famous doctors say?"

"They said it’s acute neural atrophy, already in the late stage, major neuron death, to recover, you’ll need to go to the United States for surgery, to implant high-tech biological neural lines..."

Though Roland didn’t really believe Lin Mu could cure his father’s illness, he took over the conversation and softly began speaking.

"Is that so!" Lin Mu furrowed his brow, then grabbed Luo Chenghai’s wrist to check the pulse.

A minute passed, then two, yet Lin Mu remained silent and still.

The Zi Family parents certainly couldn’t say anything, but the beautiful CEO had no such reservations, stepping forward and kicking him on the butt, saying irritably, "Don’t waste time, just about done is fine; Alan hasn’t packed yet."

"Damn, if you keep kicking me, I’ll really get mad at you!"

Annoyed, he glared at Sophie, only to find her eyes were even wider than his.

Lin Mu instantly lost his temper, scratched his head sheepishly, and turned around, saying, "Uncle, if I’m not mistaken, your leg started getting ill in the middle of winter when it accidentally fell into the water, right? At first, there was occasional joint pain during overcast or rainy days, and two or three months later, your toes often felt numb as you woke up in the morning, taking a long time to warm up before you could get out of bed and walk. Around half a year later, your calf suddenly lost sensation and walking ability?"

"Yes! It’s all my fault for not taking it seriously at first. Only when I lost mobility did I realize how serious the problem was, alas..." Luo Chenghai just assumed his daughter had told Lin Mu these things, so he wasn’t surprised hearing them, only sighing and shaking his head.

But at this moment, a glimmer of hope arose in Roland, "Brother Mu, is there hope for my father’s illness to be cured?"

"Alan!" Luo Chenghai didn’t notice Roland’s expression and thought his daughter was mocking the other party upon hearing this. However, as he furrowed his brow and prepared to mediate, Lin Mu’s confident voice suddenly rang out, "To others, this is a tricky illness, but to me, it’s nothing more than foot fungus, cured in minutes—not likely, but getting Uncle to stand up immediately is definitely possible."

"Really?" Roland widened her eyes, exclaiming in disbelief.

"Hah, do I have a reason to deceive you? Uncle’s illness, in the end, is merely cold air congestion. Only because it’s been so long has it turned into cold poison, attached to the bones, causing the meridian atrophy and making treatment difficult. Just expel the cold air, nourish the meridians with restorative techniques, and before long he can move freely..."

"No hair on the lip, can’t get things done, sigh, young people today are just too flamboyant!"

Watching Lin Mu speak eloquently, Luo Chenghai couldn’t help but sigh inwardly. He knew better than anyone how hard the disease was to treat. Over the years, he had visited every major hospital in Huaxia, seen no fewer than fifty renowned doctors, tried countless treatments, taken countless medicines, all to little avail. And yet this young man talked big, wanting to make him stand up in mere minutes? That’s not just talking nonsense, it’s purely child’s play! Does he really see himself as the miracle doctor Hua Tuo!

Still, although he thought these things, Luo Chenghai didn’t show it on his face. After all, people were acting out of good intentions, and to refuse outright might hurt feelings.

Meanwhile, Sophie no longer had the energy to comment.

She covered her face, quietly sitting back in the corner.

Soon, under Lin Mu’s instructions, Roland returned with a large basin of clear water.

"Brother, do we need to prepare anything else?" Compared to the other two, Roland Meimei had much faith in Lin Mu.

"No need, just take off Uncle’s socks and soak his feet in the water."

Lin Mu took a deep breath, squatted down, combined his five fingers into a palm, and gently slapped down along Luo Chenghai’s thigh, knee, and calf. His force was gentle, but as he repeated the cycle, his movements got faster with each round.

At first, Luo Chenghai still didn’t take it seriously, but as time went by, he vaguely felt a warm current seep through his pores into his legs. Now, he was truly surprised, knowing that for the past three years, after losing mobility, his legs were completely without sensation, unable to feel hot or cold from the temperature. But now, this young man had only been patting for a couple of minutes and there was already a warm current. Could it be that he truly had hope of recovery?

Thinking this, his heartbeat began to accelerate immediately.

Just then, Roland’s exclamation suddenly rang out.

The three of them looked and saw wisps of white mist rising from the gently rippling water surface. This mist gathered without dissipating, swirling above the water, even at a distance, one could feel the coolness contained within.

"What, what’s going on here?" Sophie stared wide-eyed in a daze.

Suddenly, Lin Mu let out a soft cry, changing techniques, switching from slapping to tapping, continuously stabbing at various acupuncture points on Luo Chenghai’s legs. His movements were so fast that even traces seemed to be left in the air, making Luo Chenghai’s body tremble slightly, feeling the warm current penetrating his legs becoming clearer and more obvious.

"Oh my God! The water froze!"

Roland covered her mouth. Tiny ice crystals emerged from around Luo Chenghai’s feet, floating upwards under the water’s buoyancy. In just a few breaths, a thin layer of ice covered the water’s surface.

While sitting there, Luo Chenghai’s hands involuntarily clenched into fists, endless streams of energy surged in, making him feel as if his legs were air-filled balloons, almost on the verge of exploding.

Previously, there was no sensation, but now the feeling was overwhelmingly frightening. With the warm current coursing through, the muscles, blood vessels, and bones in his legs seemed to have countless needles pierced continuously, both painful and itchy, driving one to the brink of collapse. Yet, Lin Mu’s actions didn’t cease, and Luo Chenghai dared not interrupt, only biting his teeth tightly, enduring it silently.
