"There's no other way for now. If we send her to the hospital, it might affect the child's brain development in the future." Lin Feng knew the woman was worried, but he could only speak the truth to persuade her to let him help the child.
Otherwise, it would really be too late.
"What? It's that serious?" The woman was startled by Lin Feng's words about potential brain development issues and instinctively responded.
"Yes, we can't hesitate any longer." Lin Feng had magically produced a needle case from his ring, something he had specifically bought from a pharmacy, professional equipment meant for acupuncture.
Seeing that Lin Feng had an acupuncture kit with him, the woman could only trust him at this point, hoping that he wasn't just talking nonsense.
"Alright, thank you." The woman adjusted her hold on the child and said.
"Don't worry," Lin Feng assured her as she agreed.
However, while he was making promises with confidence, he suddenly felt a bit dazed about how to perform acupuncture. It dawned on him that he didn't actually know how to do it.
"Trust your body to me," Tesla said to Lin Feng at that moment.
Trust my body to him? What if he doesn't return it? Lin Feng hesitated internally.
"I won't keep it. There's no other way; you just have to trust me. Or you can do it yourself while I guide you," Tesla said confidently. The implication was clear: whether or not to save the person was up to Lin Feng; Tesla had no stake in it.
Clearly, Tesla sensed Lin Feng's emotional connection when he saw the little girl since Lin Feng hadn't blocked his mental power. At this moment, Tesla realized that it was Lin Feng who should be nervous, not him.
"Don't think I'm afraid of you." Despite feeling uncertain, Lin Feng argued in his mind against Tesla. He couldn't let go of control over his body; losing that would reverse their roles and lead to disastrous consequences.
"Heh... I can wait, but that girl can't." For reasons unknown, Tesla continued to be arrogant.
"Alright, if I have to die, then bring it on." Even though Lin Feng had an extraordinary memory and comprehension, he still dared not take matters into his own hands. After all, this was acupuncture; if he made a mistake in the placement, it could lead to irreparable consequences.
"Very well, I didn't misjudge you." With that, Tesla unceremoniously took control of Lin Feng's body.
Having lived with Lin Feng every day, Tesla was well aware of his principles, especially when faced with a little girl who evoked special feelings in him. He knew that Lin Feng would never just stand by; no, he could not ignore someone in need.
At that moment, ignoring the situation and standing by were essentially the same.
With Tesla occupying control of his body, Lin Feng's expression immediately changed. How should he put it? He became serious and confident, focusing intently on the acupuncture points on the little girl's body.
No matter how skilled Tesla was, once he treated someone, he was meticulous. A healer must have the heart of a parent. Under normal circumstances, Tesla could be carefree, but when faced with a patient, he was undoubtedly a doctor with medical ethics.
Seeing Tesla like this reminded Lin Feng of a lesson he had learned in elementary school about Bethune; he seemed to embody that very image.
Great and selfless! Four words that carried immense weight!
Soon enough, Tesla finished identifying the acupuncture points and was ready to begin.
"Mommy, I'm scared. The needles hurt." The little girl looked quite uncomfortable; her face was flushed from the fever, making her all the more endearing.
"Don't be afraid, Xiao Ling. Aren't you the bravest? Your brother is amazing; he'll just poke you lightly, and it'll be over quickly." At that moment, the woman could only affectionately press her face against the little girl's cheek and reassure her.
At this point, not only the little girl but even she had no choice but to trust Lin Feng.
Seeing the little girl's adorable expression melted something in Lin Feng's heart, and he immediately wanted to reclaim control of his body.
Just like that thought crossed his mind, Lin Feng found himself regaining control once again.
"Hey? Lin Feng found it quite strange himself.
'You brat, just now you had a look of righteousness ready to face death, but now you understand, right? I just want to take control of your body, and there's nothing I can do about it. The moment you think about reclaiming control, you will immediately do so,' Tesla explained to Lin Feng at the right moment.
'Oh, is that so? Why didn't you tell me earlier?' Lin Feng was somewhat surprised; this ability to switch freely and instantly was truly wonderful.
'I wanted to see what your conscience was like, didn't I? Besides, even if I had told you back then, would you have believed me?' Tesla explained again.
That was true; Lin Feng had to admit that at that time, it was indeed difficult for him to make a choice. If it weren't for the sick little girl and that special feeling, he would have found it hard to decide to let Tesla take control of his body.
'Good boy, your name is Xiao Ling, right? Xiao Ling is the bravest. Come here, uncle will give you a hug. Uncle won't give you a shot anymore. Xiao Ling is so beautiful and so cute; how could uncle bear to give you a shot?' Lin Feng thought that Xiao Ling's condition could not be delayed any longer. Having regained control of his body, he could only comfort her while taking her from her mother's arms, getting closer to her first.
It's normal for a little girl to be afraid of needles. For Xiao Ling, perhaps because of that special feeling, Lin Feng treated her like his own daughter, pampering and comforting her. Holding her felt like holding the whole world.
Lin Feng knew that this was also a feeling of holding his own daughter.
Now, Lin Feng had somewhat gotten used to this absurd feeling.
'But you're still holding the needle,' Xiao Ling did not resist Lin Feng's embrace but pointed with her delicate fingers at the Silver Needle in Lin Feng's hand.
This girl is quite clever.
'Look, how about I make it disappear?' Lin Feng shook his hand again, and the Silver Needle truly vanished.
'Yay! Uncle is amazing!' Xiao Ling cheered when she saw the Silver Needle really disappear after Lin Feng shook his hand. Her mood improved a bit, but her face was still flushed due to the fever.
'And that needle box,' after cheering, Xiao Ling turned her little head and pointed at the box containing the Silver Needle."
It was clear that the little girl had Lin Feng make the needle box disappear as well, so she could feel at ease.
"Ha ha... Alright, let's make it disappear. Whatever Xiao Ling says goes," Lin Feng coaxed. As he spoke, the needle box in his hand vanished again.
Now, even Xiaoling's Mother was filled with surprise. Just now, the Silver Needle was so small that Lin Feng could easily make it disappear with a bit of skill, which could be seen as a trick. But now, the needle box was as big as two pencil cases—could he really make that disappear?
At this moment, although Xiaoling's Mother still doubted Lin Feng's medical skills, she believed in his magical abilities. To make such a large needle box vanish right before their eyes showed great mastery of magic.
In reality, Lin Feng didn't understand magic at all; he simply placed the Silver Needle and the needle box into his magic ring. Of course, he couldn't explain this to anyone else—only he knew.
"Yay! Uncle is amazing! This is the first time I've seen a real magic show!" Xiao Ling cheered when she saw Lin Feng make such a large needle box disappear.
"Alright, Xiao Ling, tell Uncle, do you want to learn magic?" Lin Feng gained Xiao Ling's trust and held her tighter, letting her little face rest against his chest. Then he shook his hand behind her back, causing the Silver Needle to reappear. At the same time, control of their body switched to Tesla, who then inserted a needle into a specific acupuncture point on Xiao Ling's back.
Tesla didn't specify what point it was, and Lin Feng didn't ask.
Anyone who has undergone acupuncture knows that even though the needle is inserted into the body, it is far less painful than an injection. It might feel slightly itchy; later on, there could be some swelling or numbness. The effects vary depending on the acupuncture point and cannot be generalized.
"I do," the little girl said with her rosy lips while resting against Lin Feng's chest, unaware that she had already been pricked by him. She did not resist Lin Feng and was actually enjoying being close to him at that moment.
Seeing Lin Feng carefully coaxing Xiao Ling and skillfully giving her an injection, Xiaoling's Mother found it strange that Xiao Ling, who usually resisted strangers, was so affectionate towards Lin Feng. She felt grateful for Lin Feng's thoughtful approach and was beginning to trust his medical skills.
Watching Xiao Ling talk while accidentally drooling on Lin Feng's shirt made her feel a bit embarrassed, but she didn't want to interrupt him at that moment.
Once the injection was done, Tesla quickly withdrew. Lin Feng regained control of their body; after all, it was better for him to coax Xiao Ling. Tesla was older and referred to himself as "Uncle," which would be hard for him to bear; he would even consider "Grandpa" too young for himself.
Moreover, Tesla knew that Lin Feng truly enjoyed the process of coaxing Xiao Ling. Naturally, they worked well together—one coaxed while the other administered acupuncture—creating a good synergy.
"Do you know what your uncle's name is, Xiao Ling?" Lin Feng asked gently, not minding the drool left on him by Xiao Ling.
At that moment, he felt as if Xiao Ling were his own daughter. What father would care if his daughter left a little drool?
"I don't know," Xiao Ling said, her little mouth moving and leaving more drool. The soul switch occurred again, and Tesla administered another acupuncture needle.
There was no helping it; Xiao Ling's mouth was too close to Lin Feng's chest, practically zero distance apart. Given her young age, this situation was quite normal.
"Uncle's name is Lin Feng. Hehe... Can Xiao Ling write her own name?" The soul switch happened once more, and it was Lin Feng's turn to entertain the child.
From then on, Lin Feng took charge of entertaining Xiao Ling while Tesla handled the acupuncture. They returned to their initial cooperative mode: one entertaining and one administering needles. Their synergy was remarkable.
Finally, after Tesla finished the acupuncture, Xiao Ling's fever subsided. Lin Feng had to admit once again that Tesla's medical skills were impressive, and traditional Chinese medicine was also quite effective.
Who said Western medicine was faster than traditional Chinese medicine? Both have their strengths.
With this collaboration, Lin Feng believed he could become a good doctor in the future. With Tesla around, switching souls would make ailments disappear without surgery or medication, ensuring a healthy body.
Uh... This might sound like advertising!

P.S.: The two updates are done. My neck feels a bit sore; sigh, this is what writers go through. I need to go out and exercise later. For now, I'll upload this and hope everyone saves it!
