Chapter 160 The Coal Mine Owner with Kidney Deficiency and the Underground Admission Ticket
Chapter 160 The Coal Mine Owner with Kidney Deficiency and the Underground Admission Ticket
When Tu Jinshan arrived, his entourage was even grander than that of the bald man from the other day.
Four Land Rovers led the way, with a stretched Bentley sandwiched in the middle.
As soon as the car door opened, instead of seeing anyone, a golden cane was extended out.
Immediately afterwards, a middle-aged man who was so fat that his neck was almost invisible was carried down by two bodyguards like a mountain of flesh.
This man is all about one word: extravagance.
He wore a gold chain as thick as a finger around his neck, eight rings on his ten fingers, and even his teeth were gold.
However, his face was ashen, like a zombie just dug out of a grave. His eye bags were so big they could hold two ounces of rice, and his legs were so swollen that his custom-made Armani trousers were about to burst.
Huang Daxian followed behind, bowing and scraping like a eunuch: "Boss Tu, watch out for the steps. We're here. This is the reclusive divine doctor I was talking about."
Tu Jinshan lifted his heavy eyelids, glanced at the dilapidated Renxin Pharmacy, and then looked at Wang Minyu, who was wearing a yellowed white coat, his eyes full of suspicion and disdain.
"That's it?" Tu Jinshan's voice was hoarse, carrying a strong smell of coal dust. "Old Huang, are you trying to scam me? This run-down place can cure my illness? I've been to the Mayo Clinic before!"
"Did the Mayo Clinic cure him?" Wang Minyu sat in a rocking chair, holding a book titled "Five Years of College Entrance Examination and Three Years of Simulation" (actually, he was reading the system manual tucked inside), without even looking up.
"You..." Tu Jinshan choked for a moment, "Kid, do you know who I am?"
"I know, walking kidney failure." Wang Minyu closed his book, stood up, and looked at him like he was looking at a piece of pork belly waiting to be slaughtered. "Boss Tu, this isn't just kidney failure, it's 'fear damaging your kidneys.' If I'm not mistaken, you recently saw something you shouldn't have seen underground, didn't you?"
Tu Jinshan's fat trembled violently, and his arrogant demeanor instantly diminished.
"You...you know?"
"Not only do I know, I also know how you feel right now." Wang Minyu took a step closer, activating his [Verbal Jutsu: Satirical] technique, "Do you hear something scratching at the door from underground every night when you close your eyes? Do you feel a chill down your lower back, like there's an ice pack on your kidneys?"
With each word, Tu Jinshan's face paled a little more. Completely accurate! It was as if there was a surveillance camera installed under his bed!
"Miracle...miracle doctor!" Tu Jinshan disregarded his image and knelt on the chair with a thud (actually, he was put down by the bodyguard). "Save me! I'll give you any amount of money as long as you can save me! I won't dig that mine anymore, I'll fill it in, okay?!"
"Money is secondary," Wang Minyu waved his hand. "The main thing is that your illness requires special treatment."
He turned to Guan Shan and said, "Bring out our 'Holographic Fear Desensitization System'."
The so-called system is actually a "haunted house experience version" created by Zero using holographic projection technology.
A few minutes later, all the curtains in the clinic were drawn, making the room dimly lit.
Wang Minyu had Tu Jinshan lie on the treatment bed and attached several electrode pads to his head (actually for monitoring heart rate).
"Mr. Tu, according to traditional Chinese medicine, fear damages the kidneys. The root of your illness lies in the word 'fear' in your heart. To cure it, you must overcome this fear."
"How...how do we break this?"
"Fight poison with poison."
Wang Minyu snapped his fingers.
"Zero, activate scenario: Abyss Gaze."
In an instant, the clinic's ceiling disappeared, and the surrounding walls vanished as well.
Tu Jinshan was horrified to discover that he seemed to be suspended above a bottomless abyss.
Beneath his feet was churning black lava, all around him were countless red eyes, and in his ears came the sound of fingernails scratching rocks that he had heard deep in the mine.
"Aaaaaah!!" Tu Jinshan screamed like a pig being slaughtered, "Help! There's a ghost!"
"Don't scream." Wang Minyu's voice came coldly. "Open your eyes and look at them. That's your kidney energy draining away. If you don't want to die, scream back at them! Scream your yang energy out!"
"I dare not!"
"Then you can just wait here to die."
"No! I won't die! I have plenty of money! I'm going to live for another five hundred years!" The will to survive overcame fear. Tu Jinshan closed his eyes, mustered all his strength, and let out a hysterical roar, "Get out! All of you get out! I'm a coal mine owner! Who am I afraid of!"
That roar actually brought out a kind of swaggering, nouveau riche vibe.
With his roar, the illusions around him began to shatter.
Zero adjusted the parameters accordingly, causing those "monsters" to vanish in front of him.
Ten minutes later, the lights came on.
Tu Jinshan was soaked to the bone, as if he had been pulled out of the water.
But to his surprise, the heavy feeling that had been weighing on his heart disappeared, and the cold spot on his lower back actually felt warm.
"That's... all done?" Tu Jinshan touched his waist in disbelief.
"Dream on. This is just treating the symptoms." Wang Minyu handed him a glass of warm water. "Your kidneys are already overworked and need to be nourished. However, to completely cure the problem, we need to address the root cause."
Wang Minyu stared into Tu Jinshan's eyes, his true intentions revealed: "I want that mine."
Tu Jinshan was taken aback: "What do you need that lousy mine for? Down there, all you hear are rocks and strange noises; it's really eerie!"
"You don't need to worry about that. I'm a doctor, specializing in all sorts of strange things." Wang Minyu smiled. "You transfer the usage rights of that mine to me, and in addition, lend me several sets of the most advanced deep drilling equipment. In exchange, I guarantee that your kidney can be used for another twenty years."
Tu Jinshan hesitated for less than three seconds.
Compared to life, that abandoned mine that doesn't produce coal is nothing!
"Deal! Sign the contract now!"
Just then, a crisp sound of shattering glass came from the second floor.
Su Qing rushed downstairs, holding a newly printed waveform chart in her hand, her face both excited and solemn.
"Boss, Lin Xiaoya just said a complete sentence!"
"What did you say?"
"She said, 'The valve is loose. If it's not tightened, Changxiang City will become a sea in three days.' And..." Su Qing pointed to a red dot on the drawing, "The entrance to that valve is three thousand meters below Boss Tu's mine."
Wang Minyu took the blueprint, looked at the dark red mark, and then glanced at Tu Jinshan, who looked completely bewildered.
A slight smile played at the corners of his lips (crossed out), and his gaze toward Tu Jinshan became incredibly kind, as if he were looking at a ticket to a new world.
"Boss Tu, it seems we need to deepen our cooperation."
Wang Minyu patted Tu Jinshan's broad shoulder and said, "Get ready, we're going to your mine for a 'team building' activity."
