Chen Yang is kicked out by the arrogant Dr. Wang, who insists on his own treatment plan despite objections. Soon after, the patients begin vomiting blood and screaming in agony, exactly as Chen Yang predicted. The town chief, realizing the grave mistake, rushes to find Chen Yang and begs him to return and fix the situation.

"Are you here to save people, or are you here to kill them? The patients are already in such a state—how much longer will you continue to mess around?"

Chen Yang's brow furrowed as he spoke without pause.

Dr. Wang's mind was in utter disarray, his chest churning with suppressed anger. The instant he heard the voice, his gaze immediately snapped towards Chen Yang.

Upon witnessing the mayor had actually summoned Chen Yang, the existing embers of resentment in his heart, which had been smoldering with dissatisfaction, surged upwards and ignited into a furious blaze.

"Nonsense! What does a frog in a well like you understand? Do we need you to lecture us on how to treat patients and save lives? Get out of here immediately!" Dr. Wang bellowed, his rage boiling over impotently.

At this moment, he was in a state of near panic, yet he desperately wanted to preserve his dignity. He clung to a shred of false hope, desiring to resolve the predicament on his own.

Chen Yang could clearly perceive that Dr. Wang was merely adopting a facade of toughness.

"Enough! Dr. Wang, how much longer do you intend to prolong the suffering of these patients? Can you not see they are on the brink of collapse? This is a matter of human life, not children's games! Let Chen Yang take over," the mayor finally exclaimed, unable to bear it any longer, and angrily rebuked Dr. Wang.

Dr. Wang's face drained of color; confronted by the mayor, he found himself utterly speechless.

After a few seconds of strained silence, he finally managed to speak.

"Fine, your town is truly remarkable, isn't it? So many 'capable individuals.' Since that's the case, I'm done, alright? I won't concern myself with a single thing—leave it all to you. I wish to witness just how 'amazing' this quack doctor of yours truly is." Dr. Wang declared, his tone conveying a sense of throwing in the towel and departing.

"Hmph, Chen Yang's medical skills are certainly not inferior to yours." The mayor, unwilling to engage in further arguments, turned his direct attention to Chen Yang and stated, "Chen Yang, these patients can only depend on you now."

"Understood." Chen Yang wasted no words; at this juncture, the priority was to treat and save lives.

"Hmph, I truly want to witness the brilliant tricks you possess." Dr. Wang let out a cold snort, crossing his arms over his chest, adopting the posture of someone settling in to watch a spectacle.

His attitude was utterly deplorable.

Considering the profound suffering the patients endured following his treatment, he could still comport himself in such a manner. From this alone, it was evident that despite being a foreign-educated medical practitioner—

He lacked any semblance of medical ethics.

Chen Yang chose to disregard him; the most effective response was to swiftly bring the situation under control.

"Immediately induce vomiting for all the patients. You must ensure every last bit of the residual drug is expelled from their stomachs," Chen Yang issued his initial command.

"Everyone, heed Chen Yang's instructions and follow them precisely," the mayor interjected from the side.

The town's physicians, naturally inclined to defer more to the mayor, immediately sprang into action and began the process of inducing vomiting in the patients.

Due to the patients' already compromised physical condition, they exhibited significant resistance to the induced vomiting.

More than half an hour of strenuous effort passed before the task was finally completed. Nearly all the patients had successfully vomited the ingested medicine.

Following this, Chen Yang calmly instructed everyone to sterilize and clear the area.

All the contaminated waste was transported far from the water source and meticulously buried in pits.

"What is the next step?"

Once all immediate actions were concluded, the mayor inquired of Chen Yang once more.

"Wait." Chen Yang responded with a single word.

"Wait?" The mayor appeared taken aback by the brevity of the reply.

"Hahahaha, so that's your grand strategy? Are you not ashamed, you fraud?" Dr. Wang erupted into laughter upon hearing this, as though witnessing a comical performance.

In truth, Chen Yang possessed his own calculated plan.

The patients had just undergone a strenuous process, which had further weakened their already fragile bodies. They could not possibly withstand another significant physical ordeal at this moment.

Therefore, apart from waiting patiently, there was no other course of action available right now.

Only after their bodies had gradually recuperated and the lingering effects of the previous stimulation had subsided could further therapeutic measures be implemented.

"Dr. Wang, can you cease your mockery for a moment? Chen Yang is diligently working to rectify your errors—how can you possibly find humor in this situation?" Even Wu Kexin could no longer tolerate Dr. Wang's flagrant disregard for medical ethics and sharply admonished him.

"Why shouldn't I laugh? He vehemently proclaimed his ability to refute me, only to be incapable of producing a single concrete treatment method now. Is that not utterly ridiculous?" Dr. Wang felt his position was entirely justified.

"Your medical ethics are truly questionable," Wu Kexin stated, shaking her head in utter disdain.

"Oh, his medical ethics are superb, are they? Then he should present a treatment plan. Merely speaking without taking action—that is what truly undermines medical ethics, is it not?" Dr. Wang retorted.

"You..." Wu Kexin attempted to continue the argument, but Chen Yang gently restrained her.

"There's no need to argue with someone like that. Let the facts speak for themselves."

"Heh, that’s actually not a bad line. And I’m looking forward to seeing exactly what ’facts’ you’ll use to answer me." Dr. Wang said with a playful look, not the least bit worried about the patients’ critical condition.

Chen Yang ignored him completely.

He quietly waited for half an hour.

By then, all the patients had calmed down; they were no longer in the same agony as before.

Seeing that the effects of Dr. Wang’s medication had already worn off, Chen Yang stepped forward and personally began examining the patients one by one.

Only after confirming that they could proceed with further treatment did he speak and give instructions.

"Use the prescription I drew up earlier and give the patients their doses. Also, when you decoct the medicine, add this in as well; it’ll improve the effect." Chen Yang took a small gourd-shaped porcelain bottle from his pocket and handed it to the town doctors.

"All right."

The town doctors immediately did as Chen Yang said, feeding the medicine to the patients one after another.

After drinking the medicine, the patients’ conditions clearly improved. Although they weren’t completely cured yet, the trend toward recovery was unmistakably obvious.

Compared with Dr. Wang’s earlier treatment, the difference between the two was instantly, glaringly clear!

Watching the ward return to normal, the look of eager anticipation on Dr. Wang’s face froze in an instant...

"Dr. Wang, anything to say now?" Wu Kexin, still angry, couldn’t help herself and spoke up.

"This..."

Dr. Wang’s face was livid with embarrassment.
