Horror Camgirl - Ch. 21: You Have a Hidden Injury
"Captain, what do you think of Ms. Yuan Junyao?" the young man asked while driving.
"She doesn't seem to be scheming," Captain Jin replied.
The young man said, "Captain, should we send someone to keep an eye on her?"
"Not for now," Captain Jin said with a deep gaze. "Let her continue her live streams. That's the higher-ups' orders, which means she has caught the eye of a big shot above us. It's better not to cause trouble."
The young man frowned slightly. "The ghost-catching spells and formations she uses in her live streams are things we've never seen before. The headquarters says those are very ancient. Madam Yuan probably possesses an ancient inheritance. We don't even know what kind of big figure her master is."
Captain Jin waved his hand. "Xiao Lin, I've given her your contact information as well. If she needs something from you in the future, be proactive. I have a feeling that maintaining a good relationship with her will benefit us in the long run."
"I understand, Captain."
Captain Jin's words shook me greatly. After going home, I opened the Live Stream Room and looked around, but nothing seemed different. Could it be because of my last upgrade?
I called Black Rock TV's customer service, and they said that the Live Stream Room hadn't been upgraded recently.
I immediately felt a chill. Could it be that ghosts made me upgrade?
After thinking it over with no results, I decided not to worry about it. As long as I could continue to live stream, absorb the Vengeful Ghost's black energy, and earn money to pay for my brother's treatment, nothing else mattered.
This matter passed by quietly without a trace, and Tang Mingli didn't bring it up again. Since I started tempering my muscles and bones, every day after absorbing a bit of Hongmeng Purple Qi, I would go to a nearby park to practice boxing.
In the booklet True Lord Zhengyang gave me, there was a set of boxing techniques. They weren't particularly powerful offensively, but they were good for strengthening the body. Regular practice would prevent all kinds of illnesses.
One day, when I arrived at the park, I found someone had already arrived. It was a young man, about twenty-six or twenty-seven years old, with a strong build and muscles like an iron tower.
He was also practicing boxing, every move accompanied by a gust of wind. Sometimes, when he threw a punch, I could even hear a faint sonic boom.
This man had a lot of blood energy, clearly a master.
I noticed that recently, I could sense the qi within others. Although this man looked strong, he actually had a hidden injury, and it wasn't just for a day or two. When he was cultivating qi, there was a clear sense of obstruction.
I suddenly remembered that the document Cloud Fairy sent me said that such Medicinal Baths could not only temper muscles and bones but also heal some minor hidden injuries.
Earlier, when I came in, I saw a Hummer H parked at the park entrance. There was no one else in the park, so it must be his.
Such a wealthy person—if I could heal his hidden injury, wouldn't that be another source of income?
After completing his set of boxing techniques, he glanced coldly at me and said, "You've been watching for so long. Aren't you going to come out?"
My face flushed red. I hadn't expected him to notice me so early.
I steadied myself and walked out briskly. He looked me over and asked, "Why are you spying on me boxing?"
I felt a bit uneasy but said on the surface, "I come here every morning to practice boxing and exercise. Today I saw you arrived earlier than me. Sorry to disturb you."
He snorted coldly and turned to walk away.
I got anxious and wanted to stop him, but then I thought, why should I make others believe me? I'm just an ugly woman.
With a helpless sigh, I started practicing the set of boxing techniques. The booklet seemed to call it the Eight Extremes Tianluo Fist.
I took this round of boxing very seriously, and the young man actually stopped, carefully observing me. The more he watched, the more serious his expression became, making me feel goosebumps all over.
But I immediately stabilized my mind and finished the set of punches fluidly, ending up drenched in sweat.
"What kind of boxing is this?" he asked in surprise. "It's so exquisite."
I rolled my eyes; exquisite? True Lord Zhengyang said this was the worst, and my Live Stream Room level was too low to transmit anything else.
"This was taught by my master," I replied hastily, then suddenly said, "Sir, your injury is severe."
His expression changed, and he suddenly rushed to me. I resisted but was overpowered as he grabbed my neck. "Who are you?"
I've been practicing this boxing for several days, so naturally, it couldn't compare to a professional's.
"If you kill me, you'll never be able to heal the hidden injury inside you," I quickly said.
He remained silent for a moment before releasing me, his face shifting unpredictably. "What else do you know?"
I said, "I can heal your injury."
His face brightened, but quickly darkened again. In a cold voice, he said, "Even doctors are helpless. You can heal me? That's a joke."
I felt a bit frustrated, as if I was begging him to heal me.
I also became cold, saying, "Your injury is here," pointing to the Dantian area. "It's a serious injury. If not treated promptly and your Dantian really fails, it would be a huge loss."
The man’s eyes deepened. "Can you really heal my injury?"
"I can't promise one hundred percent," I quickly replied, "But I can try."
"Very well," he grabbed my wrist and said, "If you can't heal me and just play games with me, I'll make you regret coming into this world."
His eyes were like knives, cold to the bone, making me shiver. I swallowed hard. Did I get involved with someone I shouldn't?
I mustered up my courage and said, "Treatment fee is 500,000."
His gaze became even more terrifying. I quickly added, "You can pay after it's healed."
The man coldly assessed me. "As long as you can heal me, not only 500,000, even a million or ten million is no problem. If you can't heal me..."
"I, I leave it up to you to decide," I said, feeling a rush in my head.
I regretted saying that—it was like digging a hole for myself.
But since I had already made a Military Order, I had no choice but to go through with it.
However, had I set the price too low?
I copied the prescription again and handed it to the man, telling him to send someone to find the medicinal materials. With his wealth, he would surely find the best ones.
I wasn't afraid of him knowing the prescription, as the final step required me to input Spiritual Energy.
Early the next morning, the man called me and said the medicinal materials were all ready. He sent a car to pick me up. When I opened the door, a white Stretched Lincoln was already waiting outside.
The Stretched Lincoln stopped in front of a luxurious villa, with two well-dressed bodyguards standing at the gate. Inside, the man sat on a sofa, wearing a dark suit, with two tall bodyguards standing behind the sofa.
The corners of my mouth twitched. Who was this man really?
I only knew his name was Wei Ran, nothing else.
He held the prescription I gave him, his face cold. "I had a National Master review your prescription. They said the medicinal properties are conflicting. Not only won't it heal the injury, but it could also be harmful to your body. What do you say?"
This... I didn't understand pharmacology, how to explain?
Never mind, try to bluff it through.
I calmly said, "Mr. Wei, do you know the saying, 'Only by putting oneself at death's door can one be reborn'?"
He slightly squinted his eyes. I continued, "You consulted those National Masters, but can they really heal your injury?"
Wei Ran was silent for a moment. I added, "Trusting no one, but not doubting those you use. Mr. Wei, if you really don't trust me, I'll leave now."
He stared deeply at me, his sharp eyes seeming to look into my heart. I gritted my teeth. Yuan Junyao, don't be afraid. If you show even the slightest hint of fear, don't think you'll walk away completely today.
After a long time, Wei Ran finally let me go, coldly saying, "When do we start?"
I breathed a sigh of relief, my back covered in cold sweat.
"Now," I commanded the servants inside the villa to prepare the medicinal bath. Once everything was ready, I had everyone leave and then reached into the thick, dark medicinal liquid.
My Spiritual Energy turned into a thin stream, flowing into the water. The potion rippled, as if white light was flowing within it.
Fearing the effect wouldn't be good, I poured all my Spiritual Energy into it, feeling my body emptied and weak.
I opened the door and said, "It's ready."
Wei Ran, dressed in white pajamas, walked in briskly. He turned his head to glance at me and said, "Aren't you going out?"
