Chapter 409: Yuan-Replenishing Pill
Hai Mingzi said excitedly, "Mom, you're not dreaming. You're really better. My teacher cured your illness."
"Dr. Ye, thank you, thank you so much."
After a year, Ma Dongmei got out of bed for the first time and was about to kneel before Ye Bufan, but he stopped her.
"It's alright. Our meeting is also fate. I am a doctor, and it's my duty to treat your illness."
At this moment, Hai Dafu nervously said, "Mr. Ye, I never expected you to be a Dao master. What do you think about my situation?"
He already had absolute faith in Ye Bufan's abilities. If it was truly as he said, then he only had three days left to live.
As he spoke, he reached up and took off the Buddha statue from his neck. He had never taken it off since he put it on, as instructed by a previous master.
But as soon as the Buddha statue was removed, he, who had been full of vigor, immediately felt his legs give way, his body weak, and he plopped down onto the ground.
"Dad, what's wrong with you?"
No matter what, Hai Dafu was still her father. Hai Mingzi quickly came over to help him up and sit him on a chair, then nervously said to Ye Bufan, "Teacher, what's wrong with my dad?"
Ye Bufan reached out and took the Buddha statue, saying, "This thing has drained your dad's vital essence, converting it into his wealth. Now he only has three days left to live."
Upon hearing him say this, Hai Mingzi immediately said nervously, "Teacher, please save my father. I know you must have a way."
In comparison, Hai Dafu was much more composed. After a brief moment of shock, he sighed and said, "Mingzi, I'm sorry to you and your mom. This is what I deserve."
Ma Dongmei knelt before Ye Bufan with a plop, her face full of pleading, "Dr. Ye, please save Dafu. If you can save him, even my life would be fine."
Ye Bufan looked at her and said, "Are you sure? There are no jokes with me. If you are willing, I will fill his body with your vital essence and extend his life right now."
If these words came from anyone else, they would be a joke, but having witnessed Ye Bufan's abilities just now, the Hai Dafu family of three knew he was serious.
Ma Dongmei said without hesitation, "I am willing!"
Hai Dafu said with a complex expression, "Dongmei, I've treated you so poorly, yet you're still willing to save me. Is it worth it?"
A gentle look flashed in Ma Dongmei's eyes, "Of course it's worth it. No matter what, you are the only man I have ever loved in this life, and Mingzi's father. After I'm gone, you must take good care of our child."
"Dongmei, I'm sorry for how I treated you in this life. If there's a next life, I will treat you well and never betray our feelings again."
Hai Dafu turned to Ye Bufan and said, "Mr. Ye, I completely deserve this. Just let me go. After I die, all my property will belong to my wife and daughter."
"No, neither of you can die!"
Hai Mingzi choked out, "Teacher Ye, please save my dad and my mom. I'll do anything if you can save them.
I'm still young, how about giving half of my life force to them? I can even give all of it."
Hai Dafu quickly cried out, "Silly girl, what are you saying? We can't harm you no matter what."
"Alright, I was just teasing you all." Ye Bufan smiled slightly, "Since you have that intention, it's enough. I can cure this illness, and the depleted vital essence can be restored with Medicinal Pills."
Hai Mingzi said excitedly, "Teacher Ye, is what you're saying true? Can we really be a family again?"
"Of course."
After Ye Bufan finished speaking, he flicked his finger, and a finger-thick bolt of lightning struck the jade Buddha in his hand.
In an instant, black Qi spread, and the jade Buddha, empowered by evil magic, turned into a pile of powder.
Then he took out a small jade bottle containing three red Medicinal Pills.
"This is a Vitality Replenishing Pill I refined. Take it back and consume it. Take one every month, and after three months, your lost vital essence will be restored."
Ye Bufan's Medicinal Pill was refined from the inner core and flesh of a Three-Eyed Thunder Serpent, possessing extremely strong nourishing properties that could quickly restore a person's Origin Qi.
Hai Dafu reached out and took the small jade bottle, then took out a Medicinal Pill and put it into his mouth.
The Medicinal Pill melted upon entry and quickly turned into a warm current that flowed down his esophagus.
Immediately after, Hai Dafu felt a surge of heat rise from his Dantian, followed by his entire body being filled with strength, and the feeling of weakness from before vanished.
He stood up with a jolt and said gratefully, "Mr. Ye, thank you for your great kindness. From now on, my life, Hai Dafu's life, is yours."
Ma Dongmei pulled Hai Mingzi and knelt down again: "Dr. Ye, thank you for making our family whole."
"Alright, everyone, get up now and live your lives well." Ye Bufan said to Hai Mingzi, "Since your family is reunited today, remember to go back to school tomorrow."
Hai Mingzi said gratefully, "Understood, Teacher Ye. I will publicly apologize to everyone tomorrow."
Ye Bufan left and walked towards the school.
In the principal's office, Chang Hao stood in front of Zhang Yunxiu, his face wet. He had just washed off the ketchup and other things, but he was still bruised and swollen, looking disheveled.
"Director Chang, what happened to you?" Zhang Yunxiu asked in surprise.
"Principal, it's all that damn Ye Bufan's doing."
Chang Hao said indignantly, "Just now, he was like a hooligan in front of the school gate, helping students fight.
I just said a few words to him, and then that guy incited the students in his class to beat me up like this."
Zhang Yunxiu's expression changed, "Are you telling the truth?"
Chang Hao said with a face full of grievance, "Principal, of course it's true. How could I lie about something like this? You can still see the injuries on my face."
Zhang Yunxiu still said with some disbelief, "That's not very likely, is it? I think Teacher Ye seems quite steady."
"Steady my foot, he's a hooligan!" Chang Hao said indignantly, "Principal Zhang, I'm telling you, we absolutely cannot keep someone like him in our school, otherwise, he will definitely be a disaster in the future."
Zhang Yunxiu had a headache. Regardless of whether what Chang Hao said was true or false, Ye Bufan was someone who was forcibly arranged by the higher-ups. They couldn't just fire him after he had only been there for one day, could they?
He said, "How about this, I'll call Teacher Ye over right now to understand the situation."
As soon as Ye Bufan entered the school gate, he received a call from Zhang Yunxiu: "Teacher Ye, please come to my office."
"Okay, I'll be right there."
Ye Bufan arrived at the principal's office, pushed the door open, and walked in. Seeing Chang Hao, he understood what was going on.
Clearly, this guy had just complained.
He said, "Principal, is there something you need?"
Zhang Yunxiu hesitated for a moment and said, "It's like this, Teacher Ye. Director Chang just said that you were fighting with people from outside the school in front of the school gate, and that you also incited students to beat him up. I'd like to understand the situation."
Ye Bufan smiled slightly, "Principal, it's true that someone was attacking our school's students just now, and I stepped in to teach them a lesson. That part is true."
Chang Hao immediately shouted, "Principal Zhang, did you hear that? He admitted it himself. We absolutely cannot keep someone like him in our school."
