CHAPTER 1054: CHAPTER 1056: TWO GROUPS OF PEOPLE

One group didn’t manage to buy the divine medicine, and their hearts were torn. They were afraid that this Doctor Xue was real, the medicine was real, and if he left just like that, it would delay the treatment of their family’s illness.

After their inner conflict, in the end, the urgency to save lives overcame their reason.

"Doctor Xue, you can’t leave, my family is still waiting for your medicine to cure them. I believe, even if they don’t, sell me a bottle of this medicine."

"I believe too, Doctor Xue, don’t get upset with that little girl, don’t be angry, just sell us your medicine. We are all waiting to buy it."

"..."

"..."

The other group had already bought the medicine and feared they’d been deceived. If this Doctor Xue was a fraud, then the medicine was definitely fake too.

Being scammed was one thing, but if this medicine caused any harm to their family, it would be a big deal.

The urgent task was to confirm the identity of the bearded old man in front of them.

"Doctor Xue, since the young girl is questioning your identity, why not silence her with some herbal knowledge?"

"Indeed, Doctor Xue, you mustn’t leave just like that. If you leave, isn’t it as if admitting you’re a fraud?"

"How could Doctor Xue be a fraud? He’s bound to fight back confidently. Let’s just wait for Doctor Xue to strike back."

"..."

"..."

Even though everyone had their doubts, they were still afraid that the bearded old man might actually be Doctor Xue.

So they dared not offend him rashly. As a result, their words were full of flattery, raising the bearded old man so high that it was hard for him to step down.

He could hardly stand the pressure anymore and just wanted to leave quickly.

He had planned well to use Doctor Xue’s fame to make some silver, but hadn’t expected to falter at the hands of a little girl.

How would he know anything about herbs? Let alone medical skills!

Though panicked inside, he put on a furious and pained expression, "Good people of Lin County, I am Doctor Xue. Believe it or not, I need not prove myself to you."

Having said that and seeing his companions tidying up, he intended to leave.

But it wasn’t so easy to leave, as they were surrounded by the crowd. Both parties didn’t want them to go because of their own little calculations.

The bearded old man’s demeanor made An’an increasingly certain that he was just a fake medicine seller, possibly not even knowing herbs.

The situation had escalated to the point where they had to expose this person’s true identity and make him return the life-saving money he scammed from everyone.

At this point, An’an felt a surge of righteousness and boldly spoke out, "Everyone, see? He’s not Doctor Xue at all."

"You little girl..." The bearded old man was gnashing his teeth in anger.

"If you’re Doctor Xue, then say something related to medical skills or talk about some herbs for everyone to hear!"

"I need not prove!"

"I think you just can’t because you’re a fake. Otherwise, you would say something—it wouldn’t take much effort or time. Isn’t that right, everyone?"

Someone in the crowd chimed in, "Yes, Doctor Xue, just say something to prove it to this young girl."

"Humph, you are insulting me. I truly regret bringing benefits to Lin County."

Seeing that the bearded old man refused to speak, An’an thought for a moment and then said, "Since you won’t speak, how about I ask you a few questions?"
