Chapter 302 - The Origin of Ebola Conspiracy

A dangerous plague finally passed through the crisis with everyone working together.

The news here had also attracted the attention of the entire country. After all, the Ebola Virus was extremely powerful, and it was rare to see it in China. If it were to spread, the consequences would be unimaginable.

Fortunately, the final result was satisfactory. It was almost a complete victory. As the leader of the medical team, Chen Shi was highly praised.

However, Chen Shi expressed that he was ashamed of his achievements. The person who contributed the most was Mr. Zhang. However, due to some reasons, Mr. Zhang did not want to expose his identity, so he stood here trembling in fear, accepting everyone's praise.

The newspaper was the same. Although they used a lot of space to describe Zhang Xiaolong's achievements, including the “blazing love” between him and Su Mei, under his strong request, all the names were just three simple words, “Mr. Zhang.”

For a moment, Mr. Zhang had become a mysterious character. No one understood why someone would choose to be an invisible person with such great achievements and receive such a great honor.

Doctor Liu Hsing, who had always thought that Zhang Xiaolong was doing it to earn money and fame, was also in a mess at this moment.

If the other party really had some ulterior motives, then as long as he reported his name, he would definitely gain both fame and fortune. Furthermore, the other party accepted it as a matter of course, as if it was a given.

However, he chose to hide his identity. The only explanation was that the other party had never thought of using this incident to do anything. He was really trying to save people. Those so-called goals were just his guesses, and he had forced them onto the other party.

The outside world was in an uproar, but Zhang Xiaolong and Su Mei quietly appeared at Wang Zhengyi's house.

Seeing him acting so mysteriously, Su Mei wanted to know what was going on even more. However, since he had already said it out loud, Wang Cheng could only politely invite her out.

“Senior Brother, I have two matters to attend to this time. One is to say goodbye to you, and the other is to know if the plague this time was caused by someone. Do you know the reason behind this?” Zhang Xiaolong asked directly.

Wang Zhengyi nodded his head, “I knew you would ask this. Actually, even if you didn't ask, I would have told you some things. I'm old now, and although I can still use needles, my strength and accuracy are no longer as good as when I was young. Since you have joined the sect, and your needle technique is better than mine, you have to shoulder some of the responsibilities.”

Hearing this, Zhang Xiaolong became curious. What exactly was the reason that made Wang Zhengyi so serious?

“Just as you guessed, the plague this time was caused by someone. The Ebola Virus was also deliberately used to harm me. He wanted to force me to hand over the Xuanyuan Needle Technique, but I never thought that he would be so crazy as to make the entire village vent their anger when he failed to achieve his goal.” Wang Zhengyi sighed.

“Who was that person?” Hearing this, Zhang Xiaolong became furious.

It was understandable for him to covet the Xuanyuan Needle Technique. However, using such a despicable method to commit murder was a little hard to accept.

“Several generations ago, the Wang family's acupuncture technique was also passed on to outsiders.” Wang Zhengyi recalled, “At that time, the world was in a difficult situation. My ancestors received a favor from someone else, and they used this acupuncture technique to repay the favor. However, only half of the technique was passed down. The one who came a while ago was the descendant of that person, named ‘Gingis'. At first, he wanted to learn the complete acupuncture technique from me, but because he had already entered another country, and he looked like he was in a hurry to get his hands on the technique, I did not agree to it. I never thought that he would immediately kill me, and even publicly provoke China in Yanjing. It seems that his goal is not just the acupuncture technique.”

“Think of a way to kill you with Ebola, and then provoke China in acupuncture. Is he afraid that you will defeat him in acupuncture?” Zhang Xiaolong asked.

“That should be the case. However, I also can't guess what he wants to do. China is a large country with many capable people. Not to mention that he might not be able to defeat everyone, even if he did, what could he do? Could it be that what he wants is just a false reputation?” Wang Zhengyi asked doubtfully.

Zhang Xiaolong frowned and shook his head, “No, there must be some other conspiracy behind this. Otherwise, he wouldn't have done such a crazy thing, insisting on killing you in order to be at ease. Although I am not a shrewd businessman, I can roughly understand this situation. As long as you have a reputation, it might seem like a false reputation, but it can easily transform into tangible benefits. Leave this matter to me. I want to see what kind of storm this person is planning!”
