Volume 1: Peaceful Childhood Chapter 45: Calligraphy

  Having made up his mind, Old Master Wang waved his hand to let the three children go down: "Dr. Yun, I'll just call you that from now on. I see you don't like unnecessary courtesy either, and I'm a straightforward person myself. Let's not be polite to each other anymore."

  Yun Leng Yan's expression finally had a hint of a smile, she really didn't like the atmosphere earlier. "Alright, Old Wang, I'll get straight to the point. You probably didn't invite me here just to thank me, did you?"

  "I had wanted to invite you for a long time, but I was afraid it would be too sudden." Old Master Wang didn't dare treat Yun Qingran as a junior, instead speaking to him as an equal: "Firstly, I truly want to thank you properly. You saved not just my life, but the entire Wang family's. Secondly, I'd like to invite you to take a look at my several children and the ancestors of the Wang family who have practiced martial arts. As you know, those who practice martial arts inevitably suffer from internal injuries, which can affect their inner power. I know you're only filling in for Old Master Yun and don't usually see patients yourself, so I had to use this method to invite you."

  "Alright, wait a minute while you call them over, I'll show you." Yun Qingran had long expected what Old Master Wang would bring up, so he replied without hesitation and made his own request: "However, you have to tell me about the situation with the C City martial arts families and other external forces that need attention first."

  Last time, Leng Han only told Yun Qingran about the major forces in the martial arts world. As for these second- and third-rate small forces, he wasn't very clear about them. However, she lives here, and no matter how big or small, she must figure out the situation. Her own intelligence network has not been established yet, and for now, she can only obtain the information she needs in this way. There is no wall that completely blocks the wind, her medical skills have already spread within a certain range, if she doesn't prepare early, when trouble comes, she will be caught off guard.

  "That's good, it's still early now, I'll tell you about the situation in C city...". Old Master Wang heard that it was just this condition and immediately put his mind at ease. He thought it would be difficult to do.

  Yun Qing listened to Old Man Wang's words while analyzing them, and soon came up with a few points: In City C, there are three martial arts families, namely the Wang family, the Bei Ao family, and the Zhongyi Wuguan. Among them, the Bei Ao family is ranked first and has almost become a top-notch family. The Wang family and the Zhongyi Wuguan are evenly matched, both being second-rate families. Both the Bei Ao family and the Zhongyi Wuguan are involved in organized crime, but the Bei Ao family only guards a small area and does not involve itself with yellow sand or drugs. The territory under its management is safe and secure, and it does not allow its subordinates to extort protection fees or engage in other common gang activities. The Zhongyi Wuguan occupies most of the territory, involving itself with gambling, prostitution, and extortion, as well as real estate, but all of this is done secretly and without too much fanfare.

  For Zhongyi Wuguan, Yun Qingran had it in mind that her family was also doing real estate business. Looking at the trend, it's only a matter of time before they suppress their opponents, so they need to be on guard. It's best to get rid of them as soon as possible. From Old Master Wang's words, she knew that Zhongyi Wuguan was simply evil and didn't live up to the two characters "Zhongyi" at all.

  The Wang family, on the other hand, focused on commerce, with their headquarters in City C, but had branches all over the country, dealing in medicinal herbs. As for other miscellaneous things, Old Man Wang also told her about them in detail, some formally and others through rumors, including information about the Bei Ao family, the Zhong Yi Wu Guan, and a few top families in City C that the Wang family was privy to. The Wang family's affairs were also revealed, although she knew they weren't important secrets, like those known by the Bei Ao family, but still considered confidential. Yun Qing Ran was very grateful for this.

  After listening to Old Master Wang, it wasn't even lunchtime yet. Taking advantage of the remaining time, Yun Qingran suggested that Old Master Wang's three sons come up first, and she would take a look at them for now.

  Mr. Wang called downstairs from the study phone to let them come up, and during the waiting time, Yun Qingran first took Mr. Wang's pulse for him.

  "You've recovered from the internal injuries of the last poisoning due to the treatment, but some old internal injuries aren't that easy to get rid of. I'll prescribe a medicine for you based on your condition, it can't completely eliminate them, but can alleviate the harm and benefit your cultivation." Yun Qingran said after taking his pulse, with her cultivation she naturally saw that Wang Lao had made great progress in his internal energy after this ordeal, and was one step closer to reaching the Heavens, however that one step was a chasm, without opportunity it might be impossible to cross in this lifetime.

  Actually, such an injury is just a minor issue for Yun Qingran, and a ordinary dan medicine can completely cure it. However, the principle of "a weak person should not possess precious things" has been verified by countless historical events. Even if she has a nominal master to protect her, people are greedy, she can ensure her own safety, but what about her loved ones? She cannot protect them every day. Therefore, the best way is not to let these things leak out.

  Yun Qingran found the ready-made Xuan paper and brush on Wang Lao's desk, picked up a small brush, and wrote a flowing cursive script that leaped onto the paper. Wang Lao watched with shining eyes, this font... has a grandeur that is both elegant and free-spirited, carrying Yun Qingran's inherent pride and individuality. The strokes are bold and unhesitant, every character a masterpiece, comparable to the works of great calligraphers. What's even more remarkable is that the author of this piece is a child under four years old. Everyone knows that due to innate reasons, children's handwriting, no matter how good, often lacks stability and strength, but this piece has none of those issues.

  The old man Wang, who was obsessed with calligraphy, decided to personally copy the prescription and then mount it on a scroll to hang in his study. What a treasure...

  Yun Qingran couldn't help but laugh at the sight of Wang Lao's excited expression, it seemed that all old people had a childlike nature, when they saw something they liked, they would always react like this.

  Soon, the three sons of Old Master Wang came up. Yun Qingran first gave Wang Lei a pulse diagnosis, which was still similar to the situation last time, but the injury after walking into the devil had improved a lot. She used acupuncture to regulate his meridians and then prescribed a treatment for his chronic internal injuries. Wang Ming and Wang Jia didn't have any major problems, just some unavoidable damage to their meridians during their internal strength training, so she only prescribed a dose of medicine to nourish their meridians.

  As they watched Old Master Wang tightly clutching the prescription that Yun Qingran had opened, everyone present couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat. The three children of the Wang family covered their faces and turned towards the window. Wasn't this still their own illustrious and mighty father? They could hardly not recognize him.

  After lunch, Old Master Wang invited the five guardians of the Wang family and some relatives to come over. Yun Qingran took their pulses under their distrustful eyes and instead of writing a prescription herself, she dictated it to Wang Lei to write down. After finishing, she immediately returned home.
