Chapter 1046 - Sun Mo Acts, Everyone Is Convinced
Seeing that it was impossible to persuade Bai Wenzhang, Xiao Feng went to look for the no. 2 character in the manor, Cui Shun`en, wanting to seek his help. However, things turned out contrary to his wishes.
"Treating those abandoned experimental subjects?"
Cui Shun`en"s eyes brightened. "I"ve long since been interested in Jiang Leng"s situation. Just so nicely, I can observe Sun Mo"s operation process now."
"Do you know that this means that all our experimental results will be shown to Sun Mo?!"
Xiao Feng was extremely angry.
Cui Shun`en was enthralled by learning, but this didn"t mean he didn"t know the ways of the world.
After he heard Xiao Feng"s words, he muttered irresolutely to himself before he said, "Xiao Feng, as a great teacher, you first have to understand the meaning of knowledge. Knowledge is something that everyone can learn."
"If no one learns it, even if the knowledge could change the world, it would be equivalent to rubbish."
Xiao Feng silently sneered. (Bai Wenzhang"s inheritance isn"t yours anyway, so you naturally won"t feel heartache. However, it"s different for me. Everything in this manor will be inherited by me in the future, and I don"t wish to allow Sun Mo to read even a single word of it.)
"But Sun Mo isn"t someone from our manor."
Xiao Feng reb.u.t.ted.
"You still don"t understand."
Cui Shun`en shook his head and laughed. "If Sun Mo can treat those abandoned subjects, this means that he has the qualifications to learn our experimental results.
"If he cannot treat the subjects fully, it represents that he doesn"t understand. If that"s the case, even if we showed him the knowledge we have, what use would that be?"
Cui Shun`en still had this bit of self-confidence.
Those who could read the research notes of the Dragonspirit Manor and put them into practice had to have grandmaster-level expertise in the study of spirit runes for ten years. These people wouldn"t waste the knowledge they gained.
Xiao Feng saw that he had no way to persuade Cui Shun`en. Hence, he gave up and went to look for Yan Sui. In the end, it was to no avail.
After No. 30"s incident, Yan Sui"s interest in Sun Mo had spiked tremendously. He even wished to observe Sun Mo on the spot, so he could emulate him.
As for Wu Li, he hated Sun Mo very much and had the same thoughts as Xiao Feng. They gathered a group of people and went to complain to Bai Wenzhang, but before they could finish speaking, they were chased out.
Because of Bai Wenzhang"s condition, the time he had remaining wasn"t a lot. He naturally wouldn"t waste his time on small matters like this.
Sun Mo had the effect of halos from One Heart Two Uses, Retentive Memory, Complete Focus, and Gus.h.i.+ng Thoughts. He ignored sleep and placed all his attention on preparing for the operation.
He only ended his seclusion five days later.
After that, he got Li Ziqi to inform Bai Wenzhang that the operation would start tomorrow at 8 a.m.
...
In the Dean"s Office.
Bai Wenzhang was currently reading the proposal in his hand as he nodded occasionally.
Sun Mo had written all the treatment processes, and everything was backed with logic. Those who read it would be convinced.
"Might I be so impudent as to ask...for matters like mending energy channels, peeling bones, and growing flesh, can the Ancient Dragon Capturing Hands achieve these?"
Bai Wenzhang was astonished.
He had seen miraculous medical techniques before, but they were based on powerful medical arts and top-graded alchemy pills. As for Sun Mo, he achieved it with a pair of hands...
It was truly a huge exaggeration!
"Yes!" Li Ziqi nodded. "Jiang Leng is the best proof."
"Help me inform your teacher that I will prepare everything well for him."
Bai Wenzhang continued reading the proposal. It was truly well written and everything was very clear. In the future, he could also use this method.
Sun Mo was someone from the modern era, and it was unknown how many reports and proposals he had seen before. This proposal he had prepared for Bai Wenzhang was just something very normal.
…
In the morning, over ten people were already gathered in front of the operation room.
Among them, there were some dark great teachers. They gave Xiao Feng face and agreed to pressure Sun Mo. Hence, in terms of their rankings, the lowest were three-star and the highest were 7-star.
Honestly speaking, it was like a newbie doing an operation and being spectated by their professors. The pressure would surely be exceedingly great.
Bai Wenzhang arrived.
The major characters who were seated immediately stood up to greet him.
"Mn, good morning!"
Bai Wenzhang nodded. He then no longer spoke and continued to ponder over his research topic.
The others also didn"t dare to disturb him. In fact, no one else spoke.
Not long later, Sun Mo arrived. He brought Li Ziqi, Jiang Leng, and Tantai Yutang with him.
Li Ziqi could act as his a.s.sistant, Jiang Leng was in charge of miscellaneous stuff, and Tantai Yutang understood the principles of medicine and could act like half a doctor.
Xiao Feng took out his pocket watch and glanced at it. He discovered that Sun Mo made his teacher wait for a whole ten minutes and in the end, his teacher didn"t berate Sun Mo.
One must know that his teacher"s time was very precious, and he hated wasting time meaninglessly the most.
The other major characters who were seeing Sun Mo for the first time also discovered this detail. They couldn"t help but be astonished and cast a few more glances at him.
This extremely young individual was actually so highly regarded by the dean?
Sun Mo greeted everyone and then instructed Li Ziqi to do the necessary preparations before the operations.
The little sunny egg had always been responsible for these things.
Yan Sui took the lead to go in, wanting to occupy a good position. But very soon, he discovered that this girl"s actions were very fast and clean.
She was absolutely an outstanding a.s.sistant.
…
Five minutes later, when all preparations were done, No. 37 experimental subject was pushed into the operating room on a bed. After that, he removed his clothes and mentally prepared himself.
This was the first time No. 37 was stared at by so many people. He was somewhat nervous.
"Don"t be scared. After this treatment, you will be able to recover to your previous state!"
Sun Mo smiled. "Are you acquainted with Jiang Leng?"
"Mn!"
No. 37 nodded. Jiang Leng was once someone from the manor.
"When afternoon comes, you will be as healthy as him."
Sun Mo encouraged.
These words were said to achieve a placebo effect. Even if it was useless, Sun Mo would still say them.
Sun Mo lightly kneaded a few acupoints on No. 37"s body, helping him control his emotions. When he completely calmed down, Sun Mo suddenly stretched out his hand and squeezed his neck, causing No. 37 to faint.
Anesthesia?
The negative effects were too many and this was too low-cla.s.s. Sun Mo would never use it.
After that, Sun Mo started his treatment.
Back then in order to treat Jiang Leng, Sun Mo had written over ten treatment plans and personally done the operation many times to completely cure Jiang Leng. Hence, he was very familiar with the process now.
The genie appeared and started removing the spirit runes on No. 37"s bones together with Sun Mo.
"Eh? Why did the spirit rune fluctuations on the bones vanish?"
The major characters were shocked.
The moment Sun Mo acted, everyone was stunned.
Because the bones were covered by flesh and blood, no one else could see what was going on. However, these people were all major characters and had done many experiments before. Hence, based on their perceptions, they understood something.
But people like Xiao Feng weren"t able to understand this. They were completely clueless.
From their perspectives, Sun Mo merely placed his hands on the subject"s body and kneaded it. There was no difficulty to speak of.
But when the time came to repair the subject"s muscles, they could see clearly.
The damaged body, which was lacking a part of flesh, suddenly sprouted muscle fibers at a speed visible to the naked eye. Lastly, even the skin was restored, leaving behind no scars at all.
"How can this be?"
Although they had personally seen this, everyone was still dumbfounded.
Because this was too magical.
"It"s done!"
Sun Mo retreated. "Get your a.s.sistants to move him away!"
Li Ziqi meticulously helped Sun Mo to wipe his sweat. As for Jiang Leng, he started to clear up the things they used. For example, gauze that was used for wiping blood, etc.
"Wait a minute!"
Cui Shun`en spoke, just when he was preparing to inspect this personally, another major character standing at the side was even quicker than him.
"It"s gone, even the spirit rune imprints were cleared."
"Naturally. His flesh was cut out, so how could there still be any spirit rune imprints left?"
"I wonder how the recovered patient will be when compared to an ordinary human."
The major characters immediately started discussing with each other.
"Are you guys silly? Instead of thinking wildly, why don"t we ask the main person?"
Yan Sui felt embarra.s.sed to ask, hence, he encouraged the others to speak instead. In any case, he didn"t believe that these people could endure their curiosity.
As expected, the major characters surrounded Sun Mo and various questions started flowing out of their mouths.
Sun Mo patiently explained everything.
Firstly, he would be able to earn favorable impression points. Secondly, he might also be able to invite these people to be guest professors of the Central Province Academy.
Even if they just gave three lectures in a year, the Central Province Academy would have benefitted.
"Such heavy injuries are actually completely cured. This is truly magical!"
A major character sighed ruefully.
Sun Mo rested for ten minutes, and the second experimental subject was pushed in.
There was no suspense. Sun Mo completed the treatment again.
And then the third subject.
"This is simple then!"
Yan Sui stared at No. 24. His injuries were less serious. Hence, he felt that Sun Mo would be able to finish treating No. 24 within ten minutes.
"On the contrary, this type belongs to the very troublesome one."
Sun Mo explained, "For people like No. 37, the majority of spirit runes on their bodies were already damaged. Thus, the treatment could proceed by shaving their bones to get rid of the imprints and helping them grow muscles. However, for No. 24, many of the spirit runes are still undamaged. We have to repair each of them first."
"Can"t you simply strip his flesh away?"
Cui Shun`en"s lips twitched. (In any case, with your ma.s.sage, you can allow them to grow flesh again.)
One couldn"t help but say that the minds of these major characters were truly sharp.
"This idea of Cui-laos.h.i.+ could work, but the damage to the experimental subjects would be too great. Because, in order to recover, a large amount of their life potential would be exhausted. After I did this, a few years of life would be deducted from their original lifespan."
Sun Mo explained.
"It is still better than them dying!"
Although his idea was rejected, Cui Shun`en wasn"t angry. On the contrary, he honestly felt that Sun Mo"s address of him as "laos.h.i.+" was really not bad.
This was the sense of superiority of a major character.
(If an ordinary great teacher addressed me as "laos.h.i.+", I wouldn"t give a d.a.m.n. But for such a talented young man like Sun Mo, since he addressed me as "laos.h.i.+", doesn"t that mean he respects me? So, it also means that my prestige is very great, right?)
"How should we treat this then?"
Yan Sui was curious.
Sun Mo didn"t reply because he could no longer afford to be distracted.
The more the major characters watched, the heavier their expressions became. Because they had thought of a possibility.
"Could it be that he wants to repair the damaged spirit runes?"
"By doing so, it can indeed minimize the damage on the subject"s body and allow them to retain their combat strength."
"But is this something achievable?"
Very soon, the answer was revealed because Sun Mo actually did so.
The major characters were all extremely shocked. They no longer wasted words but rather stared with wide-open eyes, observing all of Sun Mo"s actions. This was especially so after he had completed restoring the muscles and skin and was focusing on mending the spirit runes. Everyone was simply awed.
They had all drawn such spirit runes before, and the difficulty level wasn"t ordinary. However, in Sun Mo"s skilled hands, the damaged runes soon reverted to their original states.
"He has only seen these spirit runes for five days, right?"
Yan Sui was stunned.
"During these few days, he didn"t merely look at a single spirit rune. The amount of time he spent researching each rune would surely not be short as well."
Cui Shun`en sighed ruefully.
This was what an absolute genius was, right?
His gaze involuntarily landed at Bai Wenzhang.
He had only seen such talent in Dean Bai before.
Ding!
Favorable impression points from Cui Shun`en +1,000. Respect (1,000/10,000).
The stronger a major character was, the more they could understand Sun Mo"s might.
As for Xiao Feng, there was only envy, jealousy, and hatred left in his heart!
An hour later.
Boom!
The spirit rune was completed and large amounts of spirit qi were being absorbed over, forming a spirit qi tornado.
This meant that not only was the spirit rune mended, but its grade was very high as well.
Pak! Pak! Pak!
Everyone applauded from the bottom of their hearts.
(No wonder the dean would permit him to do the operation.)
(This standard could probably be ranked in the top twenty when placed in the manor!)
Cui Shun`en did a rough estimate, but after he saw Sun Mo"s young-looking face, he involuntarily laughed and gave up.
Regardless of what rank Sun Mo"s expertise was ranked now...
Five years later, he would be in the top three.
Ten years later, he would stand equal with Dean Bai.
"Use 10 grams of springwealth gra.s.s, 20 grams of goldwash flower, 3 grams of moluo and take them out after soaking for three hours. After that, grind them and crush them. Add paulownia dew and make them into a paste before smearing the paste on the areas with mended spirit runes."
Sun Mo instructed.
Tantai Yutang immediately wrote them down.
"You actually know medical arts as well?"
Yan Sui was puzzled.
"My teacher is a grandmaster herbalist!"
The little egg felt glorious.
(You guys have only seen one-thousandth of my teacher"s awesomeness.)
"Teacher Sun, what effect does this medicine have?"
Cui Shun`en was curious.
They also had a very deep knowledge of medicine for spirit runes, but they had never heard this prescription before.
"It can reduce the stimulation caused by spirit runes to the body. Simply speaking, it will allow the spirit runes" adaptability to get better."
Sun Mo introduced.
For any tattooed spirit runes, because of the material used to draw it or the strength of the target"s body, the effect of the spirit runes would constantly weaken.
"This herb can increase the runes" lifespan."
"How is the effect?" Yan Sui interrupted.
"After using the medicine, the usable period of the runes will be extended by three years."
After Sun Mo finished speaking, the major characters started discussing.
Three years seemed to be very short, but to the study of spirit runes, it was considered a very long time.
After that, everyone bowed politely to Sun Mo.
This was to thank Sun Mo for his generous guidance.
After all, this prescription was extremely valuable and by being willing to reveal it, it could be seen how generous Sun Mo was.
"Everyone, there"s no need to be so polite!"
Sun Mo was merely reciprocating the favor.
The information gained from the manor, even those experimental subjects, had allowed Sun Mo to improve greatly, broadening his horizons. Giving them a herbal prescription was actually nothing in comparison.
Even if he couldn"t learn anything, Sun Mo would still do his best to help these kids. Moreover, once he had used the medicine, given the standards of the doctors here, they would easily be able to learn what medicine it was just by viewing the medicinal dregs.
"Who knows if it is real or fake? It hasn"t been appraised yet, right?"
Xiao Feng"s lips twitched.
"Shut up!"
Bai Wenzhang berated.
Xiao Feng immediately flushed red and felt so embarra.s.sed that he wanted to die. He no longer dared to say anything else.
...
Sun Mo"s treatment went on and everyone continued watching with great interest. It lasted until Tantai Yutang told them that the sky had darkened and the operations had to be concluded. Only then did everyone realize that an entire day had pa.s.sed.
"What a truly horizon-broadening experience!"
Everyone exclaimed in awe.
(The G.o.d Hands do indeed live up to their reputations. I really feel like learning!)
"If I were someone young, I would surely take him as my personal teacher."
Yan Sui joked.
Xiao Feng was stunned. (When has a major character like you ever been so friendly before? Did you forget how unhappy you were due to quarreling with Sun Mo?)
"Teacher Sun, I was in the wrong and has offended you badly a couple of days ago."
Yan Sui apologized.
This was the deterrence brought upon by capabilities. It could cause major characters to lower their head and approve of Sun Mo.
There was no solution to it. As long as one wasn"t blind, they would be able to see Sun Mo"s standard.
Yes, there was no need to look at his potential as Sun Mo would definitely become a hegemon in the spirit rune world, the kind of hegemon that would shake the entire Nine Provinces just with a step of their feet!
