Chapter 30: 326 Needles

After a good night’s meal, Chen Yi felt extremely comfortable. The next morning, he woke up feeling refreshed.

In the presidential suite of the most luxurious high-rise hotel in the city centre of Yu City, Suo Heng was already stripped down to his boxers.

“I wonder if you’re embarrassed?” Chen Yi looked at Suo Heng’s figure. He was in his fifties, and his figure was well-managed. Even though there was a little fat on his stomach, it wasn’t a big deal.

Furthermore, Suo Heng had lost a lot of weight due to his illness. Compared to Zhang Shi, his figure was much better! Chen Yi bound him up and tied his hands and feet. At the same time, Suo Heng’s waist was also bound up.

“Perhaps I’ve offended you a little, boss Fucha.” Chen Yi spoke gently, but Suo Heng didn’t mind. “I won’t offend you. If I can treat your illness, everything will be fine.”

Compared to acupuncture for Zhang Ni, the situation was very different! This acupuncture technique required all the acupuncture points in the body to be pricked. After all, he had said that nine was an imaginary number, so the number of acupuncture points depended on the situation.

Moreover, this process was very painful, so to be on the safe side, Chen Yi had no choice but to stabilize Suo Heng so that he could not move.

After all, if Suo Heng could not hold on and started to move, then it would not be a small matter. This acupuncture method required precise acupoints and needle depth. If he was not careful, he might send Suo Heng to his death in advance.

Whether it was for money or something else, Chen Yi could not ruin his own reputation.

Of course, although Suo Heng was bound by his hands and feet, or even hung up, it was not completely. His feet were still on the ground.

Everything was almost ready. Chen Yi looked at Suo Heng, “Boss Fucha, how do you feel? I may take a long time to perform the acupuncture, so I hope you have an idea. This position may be very uncomfortable in the later stages, and I can’t stop the acupuncture midway to help you relieve it. So, if you can’t take it, we can choose other positions. I’ll try my best to consider your situation.”

“It’s not a problem. Don’t worry, I can handle it. No matter what, I’m experienced in this aspect.” Suo Heng smiled.

Huh? Seeing Suo Heng like this, Chen Yi rolled his eyes. Could it be… that boss Fucha had some kind of fetish?

He asked, “Experienced? Boss Fucha, this is…”

“Sigh, it’s something that happened when we were young.” Suo Heng said, “Young people have a lot of energy. My old man explained everything to me, but I just didn’t want to let him do whatever he wanted, so I started to make a scene. The old man had a bad temper. Whenever we quarrelled, he would give me a whipping. Just like that, he would give me a beating.”

Chen Yi was surprised. “Really? So ruthless? The old man’s temper is too… but I think boss Fucha has his own choices.”

“Well, the other things are easier said than done. The old man is very strict about women’s matters. When I was young, I liked to have fun. I wasn’t very sincere. I was also a scumbag. Sometimes, I would change girlfriends. Sometimes, I would be different every day. There were always women around me! The old man thought that I was promiscuous and unmotivated. He looked at me and wanted to give me a beating. Two or three times a week, it was like eating.”

He thought of something and laughed again. “If I count all those years, I must have had a thousand women around me.”

Chen Yi laughed when he heard that. He used saline to disinfect Suo Heng and then gently wiped his skin. “This Fucha boss is good. He has dated more than a thousand women. He’s really amazing! I probably won’t have more than five women in my entire life.”

“That’s right. In terms of women, I can be considered to have had enough of being handsome and flirtatious when I was young! There are other aspects as well. I have enough money in my lifetime. I don’t lack food, accommodation, and entertainment. I can be considered to have no regrets in life,” said Suo Heng.

This was most likely the emotions of life. After listening, Chen Yi picked up the silver needle and sterilized it over the fire. “Yes, indeed. But boss Fucha, you don’t have to be too nervous. Just relax. My skills are still okay. I won’t make any mistakes.”

After all, acupuncture was about to begin. Although Chen Yi had given him a prophylactic shot, Suo Heng would still be more or less nervous. Therefore, after boss Fucha said so much, he didn’t have to brag about what he had done or what he had achieved. It was just that he was nervous, so he couldn’t help but change the topic and let his attention be on acupuncture.

The preventive injection had been given, so he believed in his ability. However… if there were any mistakes, it might lead to death.

It was not true that he was not nervous. However, when he heard Chen Yi’s words, he tried his best to relax himself. “Yes, I believe in Doctor Chen.”

Chen Yi responded with a smile and took a towel in his hand. He planned to let him bite it so that he would not bite his mouth or tongue.

On the other hand, Suo Heng was a little stunned. “Doctor Chen, what is this?”

“The process of the nine needles is very long and almost painful. I am doing this as a measure. I believe you may have your own considerations as well,” Chen Yi said.

He looked at Chen Yi and said to the bodyguard at the door, “No matter what happens inside, don’t come in. Just guard the door. This is the price that must be paid for the treatment.”

The bodyguard at the door nodded. “Okay, boss!”

Suo Heng let Chen Yi close the door. Then he bit on the towel and nodded at Chen Yi.

Seeing this, Chen Yi put the alcohol-free silver needles in his hand. He took out two or three silver needles and sterilized them again. Then he picked up a slender silver needle and pressed it on Suo Heng’s arm.

He placed three fingers on Suo Heng’s wrist. With a serious expression, he began to feel his pulse. His entire person was solemn, and the young man who was smiling just now was two different faces.

Following that, the young man frowned. His gaze fell on Suo Heng’s abdomen, where the position of the Dantian was often written in novels. The silver needles followed Chen Yi’s hand and slowly pierced into the acupuncture points on his abdomen.

The thin and long silver needles had almost completely sunk in, leaving behind a slightly thick head on the outside.

This needle was really deep! Perhaps even those retired mercenaries who had gone through many hardships would frown when they saw it! Was there a need to use it so deeply. Would it hurt his internal organs?

If that was the case, could this be considered an assassination? Fortunately, Suo Heng’s bodyguards did not see it. Otherwise, they would definitely come in and kick Chen Yi directly.

However, Suo Heng had already ordered his bodyguards, so no matter what happened, they just watched and did not take any action.

Chen Yi finished the first needle and then disinfected the second needle. He took the silver needle and slowly moved it down, landing an inch below the first needle.

However, this second needle was clearly not as deep as the first needle, but it still did not penetrate much.

Chen Yi remained calm. Almost immediately after he had determined the acupoints, he dropped the needle. One needle after another was inserted..

The bright silver needle shimmered under the light. It was terrifying to look at!

Time passed by minute by second. Chen Yi’s speed was almost godly, and Suo Heng was also pierced into a thorn ball. It looked so frightening that people would not dare to get close.

When the 326th needle was embedded, Chen Yi stopped moving.

“9 needles, 1 cycle, 36 cycles, a total of 326 needles,” he said indifferently..
