Chapter 145 Defying Fate
Randy Powell had indeed been making blood-replenishing medicine recently.
As people age, they need a bit of a boost in vitality. This was why he had always looked younger than his peers.
However, this matter was extremely secretive, and he had always concealed it well. He didn't know how James found out.
James smiled faintly. "Have you been feeling weak lately, and no matter how many blood-replenishing pills you take, they don't have the same effect as before? And after taking a large dose, you always feel fatigued and need a week to recover?"
Randy was shocked. "How do you know that?"
"I can smell it from Mr. Powell's aura." James smiled. "I also know that you've been trying to make a body-strengthening medicine recently, but you haven't been successful."
Randy was speechless for a long time. He was covered in the scent of countless medicines, and for James to deduce what he was making just from that showed how incredible James was.
He looked at James and asked, "You can see the symptoms, but do you know why?"
"The blood-replenishing pills are ineffective because your body has developed a resistance. You can replace the ginseng with another ingredient." James remained calm. "This way, the medicine's effect will change from mild to intense, activating the residual effects of past medicines in your body."
James continued, "A small amount of power can have a huge impact, making you look at least ten years younger. The body-strengthening medicine isn't working because the dosage you're using is too light. Increase it by one-third, and it will be successful."
Randy was initially confused, then his body shook, and his eyes lit up.
He was known as the best pharmacist in Rosewood City, not just by reputation. James' explanation made him realize the truth instantly.
Randy bowed repeatedly to James.
"James, you are indeed amazing. I was too arrogant. I apologize to you. I'm sorry."
James waved his hand and smiled. "You're welcome."
"I want to ask, if the patient's toxicity has spread throughout her body, besides using poison to fight poison, how do you plan to treat her?" Randy was very humble. "I'm not questioning you; I'm just curious."
James spoke calmly, "The patient is indeed poisoned, but her life force is fading, and her organs are failing, not because of the poison."
"Not because of the poison?" Randy was stunned. "Is it another illness? But the test reports don't show any serious illness."
James sighed softly, "Her life is coming to an end."
This statement made the room instantly silent, and the faces of Randy and several other old doctors changed.
"The elderly lady's time has come, and she happened to be poisoned. So it looks like the poison is taking her life."
James enlightened Randy. "Using poison to fight poison would be too much for her body to handle. Even if she could endure it, simply detoxifying her would be meaningless."
"I understand, I understand, her lifespan is the root cause."
Randy suddenly realized, without any hesitation, he knelt down to James.
"You are too amazing; you could be my teacher!"
The room fell into absolute silence.
Aaron and Patrick were both stunned by this scene.
'What was going on?'
Earlier, Randy looked down on James, but now he was calling James his teacher. It was unbelievable.
Aaron rubbed his eyes hard, looking at Randy kneeling on the ground, thinking it might be an illusion.
Randy shouted to Aaron, "Let him treat her!"
Although he didn't know what method James would use to treat the patient, she was dying, at the end of her life.
But at this moment, Randy had absolute trust in James. Even if James said the sun would rise from the west, he would probably agree.
"Alright!" Aaron was also a decisive person. "James, it's up to you. As long as you save my mother's life, I will owe you a great favor, no, a life."
He was an uneducated man, but he was a man of his word. Every word he said, he would take responsibility for.
James didn't waste any words and took out silver needles.
Although Randy had confidence in James, many people were still skeptical, thinking that a young man like James couldn't be that skilled.
After all, if Mr. Powell had no solution, where would James have gotten the confidence to save the elderly lady?
Patrick and Jacob, upon learning the situation, also had worried expressions.
This was no longer about saving someone from the brink of death but defying fate.
James sterilized the silver needles and closed his eyes briefly to familiarize himself with the acupuncture points.
The next second, James opened his eyes, emitting a strong and authoritative aura.
In the eyes of Randy and others, James suddenly exuded a powerful presence, as if he had been through the trials of time.
James moved like the wind, his hands working swiftly, and the silver needles fell precisely on the acupuncture points.
For the final needle, James took out a five-inch silver needle, his expression tense as he inserted it, leaving only the handle visible.
This made many people almost gasp.
A five-inch silver needle fully inserted would almost penetrate the body from front to back. Even Randy wouldn't dare to do this.
Patrick and Jacob's eyelids twitched as they watched.
But Aaron remained calm, watching James' actions intently.
"Open!"
After the silver needles were in place, James' Life Gem rotated, and seven white lights entered the body.
With a dual approach, her life force was renewed.
Many people present were initially waiting to see a joke, but their eyes soon became fixed.
As James' silver needles were inserted one by one, the blackness on Charlotte's face slowly faded away like receding tidewater.
And from her ears, eyes, nostrils, and mouth, a bit of black liquid slowly flowed out.
The white hair, which had a deathly aura, also had a touch of black at the roots.
When James' fingers left the silver needle, Charlotte suddenly let out a cry of pain.
She coughed and opened her eyes.
She woke up!
Patrick was shocked.
Aaron was shocked!
A group of doctors was also shocked!
Randy clenched his fists tightly, unable to contain his excitement.
He was so excited that he knelt down with a thud.
James' acupuncture skills were truly extraordinary!
Among all the people he had ever seen, no one's acupuncture skills could compare to James'.
An expert! James was the real expert!
Randy was extremely excited. The faces of several old doctors also changed dramatically, as they were all shocked by James' superb acupuncture skills.
The doctors looked at James with a newfound admiration.
Aaron walked up to James with a serious expression, stood tall, then bowed deeply and spoke with a trembling voice, "Mr. Williams, please accept my bow. From now on, Mr. Williams' matters are my matters. Mr. Williams' words are my words."
