Chapter 479 Shengsheng Is My Only Closed-door Disciple
As soon as they heard Feng Guolin had arrived at the Li Family, all the netizens in the livestream were in an uproar.
This is a national-level Chief Traditional Medicine Master, the kind who treats the leaders!
The last time Feng Guolin was on a TV program to promote traditional Chinese medicine knowledge to the public was over a decade ago.
Over these years, netizens have mostly only seen news about the master on TV, as he rarely appears in public.
So the chance to possibly see the master in person today made everyone feel like this livestream was truly worth watching!
[Host, what are you waiting for? Hurry up and follow them! We also want to see Master Feng Guolin!]
[Maybe just by hearing a few words from the master, we could benefit for life!]
[Yes, yes, go, host! Follow them, and we'll send you gifts!!]
[Do you think Master Feng Guolin might have brought along his mysterious closed-door disciple whose identity has never been revealed? I'm so curious who that person is!]
—The master's mysterious closed-door disciple.
There's hardly anyone in China who doesn't know the name Feng Guolin. His many miraculous stories of healing and saving lives have been widely circulated for years.
Everyone knows that Chief Traditional Medicine Master Feng Guolin has mostly retired in recent years and he has only trained two disciples personally in his lifetime.
The first disciple is Li Mingzhang, who is already in his fifties and now resides in Beijing. Although it's said his medical skills are excellent, he rarely sees patients personally anymore, often sending his disciple Gao He to meet them instead.
The second disciple is much more mysterious.
Several years ago, Feng Guolin personally said that his second disciple was a genius in traditional Chinese medicine, with extraordinary talent, capable of inheriting all his knowledge, and would become his closed-door disciple.
But this disciple is still young and needs time to improve themselves and gain experience, so they must stay away from money and fame for now. He would reveal this disciple's identity when the time is right.
Thus, the outside world only knows there's such a closed-door disciple, but they don't know their name, age, identity, appearance, residence, or even their gender.
The master's considerations are thoughtful, to say the least.
People with complicated illnesses, who have turned to Western medicine in vain, will naturally look to traditional Chinese medicine. In this field, the most authoritative figure is Master Feng Guolin and his personally trained disciples.
However, the master no longer takes cases easily, and his first disciple rarely does either. So, naturally, people's hopes fall on this closed-door disciple, whom even the master calls a genius.
If the identity were revealed, the demand to see this master's disciple would be overwhelming, like a river without end.
If that were the case, how would this person have any time or peace of mind to improve themselves?
Even so, there is constant curiosity about the true identity of this master's closed-door disciple. Previously, many people impersonated this disciple to scam money from patients.
It wasn't until Feng Guolin personally clarified that his closed-door disciple would never proclaim themselves his disciple or demand large sums of money from patients, that any unverified claims were false.
When someone in the comments mentioned whether the master might have brought his mysterious closed-door disciple today, the liveliness in the livestream reignited.
No way, really? Did the master really bring along that mysterious disciple?
If that's the case, they would be the very first in the nation to know the true identity of the master's closed-door disciple!
Fang Yan was especially excited.
If the identity of the master's closed-door disciple is exposed today, she would have discovered a major scoop!
Once she returns to the newspaper, she would undoubtedly become a hero there!
Thinking this, Fang Yan immediately and stealthily followed behind Meng Lin, Bai Wei, and the housekeeper towards the drawing room.
Meng Lin and Bai Wei were also eager upon hearing Feng Guolin had arrived.
They were in such a hurry to go over that they didn't notice someone following not far behind them.
Fang Yan managed to slip into the drawing room unnoticed amidst the commotion about Lu Sheng that had everyone on edge.
As she entered with her hidden camera, she witnessed another door in the drawing room slowly creak open.
Looking up, she saw an elderly man dressed in a simple Chinese long coat, with gray-white hair but vibrant energy, entering accompanied by a woman in her thirties.
Everyone instantly recognized the woman as Feng Guolin's sole daughter, Feng Xi, who had flown in overnight with her father.
In an instant, everyone originally seated in the drawing room stood up in unison.
Each voice more reverent than the last. "Old Master Feng!" "Master Feng, you're here!" "You've finally arrived, Master!"
Ever since learning of Lu Sheng's coma, Jiang Ting, Lu Jingyan, Lu Siyan, and Lu Ziye immediately rushed to Beijing to join Lu Youming and Lu Youye.
After seeing Lu Sheng's condition, the whole family was too anxious to eat or sleep.
Hearing that Feng Guolin was coming was the only glimmer of hope, so they waited anxiously here all along.
Seeing the master enter, Jiang Ting, with tears welling in her eyes, went up directly to grasp Feng Guolin's hands, almost kneeling, her voice choked: "Old Master Feng, you're finally here. I beg you, save Shengsheng, save my daughter!"
"Mrs. Lu, there's no need for that!"
Feng Guolin was also taken aback by the scene and quickly supported Jiang Ting, glancing around the room.
He hadn't expected so many people to be waiting at the Li Family home for his arrival.
Among them were several old acquaintances, like Peng Hongyuan from the National Science Academy, Ji Weiyuan from the Archeology Research Institute, and Old Mr. Shi from the Shi Family, whom he had met before. Second Miss Bai had invited him to treat her father ten years ago; he knew her too.
"Old Mr. Peng, Old Mr. Ji, Old Mr. Shi, you all..."
Just as Feng Guolin began to speak, Peng Hongyuan stepped forward and said, "Mr. Feng, Shengsheng has made exceptional contributions to our country's medical research and archeology. Old Ji and I have long considered her as a granddaughter. We don't even know what illness she has this time, but you absolutely must save her!"
Shi Mingxiu, supported by Shi Erya, came over with tears streaming and said, "Master Feng, please cure my granddaughter. I've owed her mother so much in my life, and we barely reconnected. Just days after our reunion, this happened. I haven't even had the chance yet, haven't had the chance yet to make it up to this child..."
Juanjuan, known as Christine, also stepped forward. The doll-like beautiful girl had tears in her eyes but spoke firmly: "Master, please, wake my sister up. If you can wake her, I'll make sure you receive the highest state guest treatment in Suli when you retire!"
The others gathered around too.
Everyone here was either from a prestigious family or highly influential in society, lacking money was never an issue.
Especially Meng Lin, once she realized Lu Sheng was her true benefactor, she immediately said, "Old Master Feng, if you can wake Shengsheng, I will personally top the 200 million reward from President Li with another 100 million."
Bai Wei also quickly added, "Old Master Feng, our Bai Family also..."
The words flowing one after another shocked the netizens watching the livestream.
These bigwigs truly held Lu Sheng in such high regard! It seemed that no matter what Master Feng Guolin demanded, everyone present could agree and fulfill it.
"Alright, alright, everyone, calm down first."
Before Bai Wei could finish her sentence, Feng Guolin seemed unable to hold back anymore and interrupted.
"There's no need to urge me to be more attentive,"
He took a deep breath, "How could I not be? Shengsheng has been with me from the age of five up to ten, the only closed-door disciple I've ever had. With such an incident, how could I not be concerned?"
What????
Oh my God?? Oh my God!!
What's going on!!!
