Great Medicine Without Borders

Chapter 1114 Sky-high medical fees

Xue Renzhong had a look of shame on his face. He had always vaguely felt that Shen Zisu's death might be related to him, but he couldn't be sure and didn't want to face it.

Xu Chunliang said: "This cold jade sword is also a life-threatening knife. Since you are sincere, I will help you put it away first."

Xue Renzhong said: "Mr. Xu, how much time do you think I have left?"

Xu Chunliang said: "Coughing and wheezing are just your superficial symptoms. I'm afraid you haven't told me about some of your symptoms frankly. For people who have been poisoned by the Netherworld Cold Poison, their symptoms get worse every midnight. Their lungs feel as if they are frozen. You can't cough even if you want to, and you can't breathe." Even breathing hurts, and I can’t even live or die.”

Xue Renzhong's hand holding the tea cup trembled slightly, Xu Chunliang obviously hit the spot on his pain point.

Xu Chunliang said: "On every first and fifteenth day of the Lunar New Year, the symptoms will get worse. At first, the cold air will radiate from the inside out. Later, due to the blocked pores, the cold air will accumulate in the body, and the whole body will feel like it has been thrown into a cold storage. Even if It won't get any better if you sit by the fire."

Xue Renzhong drank the hot tea in the cup in one gulp. Although he pretended to be calm, there were still water stains on the corners of his lips.

Xu Chunliang said: "Mr. Xue, can you tell me where you found the cold jade coffin?"

Xue Renzhong thought for a long time, slowly shook his head and said: "I can't say it because I swore a poisonous oath."

Xu Chunliang said: "I'm afraid the people who swore with you are already dead."

Xue Renzhong said: "Except for this matter, I can promise you everything else."

Xu Chunliang took a sip of tea and said, "Are you familiar with Bai Mushan?"

Xue Renzhong looked at Xu Chunliang in astonishment. The conversation had changed so quickly. Why did it suddenly turn to Bai Mushan.

Xu Chunliang said: "I just asked Dr. Xue and he said that your cough only started in the past two years. Your son doesn't care enough about you."

Xue Renzhong said: "I don't want him to worry. Besides, he has been studying abroad these years and doesn't know much about things at home. He is actually very filial."

Xu Chunliang said: "Why do you let him learn Oracle?"

Xue Renzhong said: "He chose it himself."

Xu Chunliang said: "Is it his idea or yours to choose Bai Mushan as your mentor?"

Xue Renzhong looked at Xu Chunliang and found that Xu Chunliang was peeling off his disguise layer by layer and trying to find out the truth: "Of course it was his own idea."

Xu Chunliang smiled and said: "The study of oracle bone inscriptions is boring and boring. Although Bai Mushan has studied oracle bone inscriptions for many years, his level is only mediocre. Dr. Xue will not learn much from him unless he has other plans."

Xue Renzhong laughed: "What are you trying to do?"

Xu Chunliang said: "The most precious thing in Mr. Xue's heart is life. As a son of man, he should solve his father's problems. Both your children are very filial. If he thinks that Bai Mushan has mastered some method that can cure your disease, then he You will definitely try your best to get close to Bai Mushan, right?"

Xue Renzhong smiled and said: "Bai Mushan is a teacher who studies ancient characters, but he doesn't know how to treat diseases."

Xu Chunliang emphasized again: "You are not sick, you are poisoned."

Xue Renzhong's smile condensed on his face. It would always be a bit embarrassing when a lie was exposed in person. Xue Renzhong was now full of vigilance towards the young people in front of him. How could he have such a strong insight at such a young age?

Xu Chunliang said: "Has your son ever told you that Bai Mushan once had liver cancer, and then he went to North America and miraculously recovered from his disease after he came back?"

Xue Renzhong said: "Maybe the medical level there is advanced..."

"Mr. Xue, why don't you go there and try?"

Xue Renzhong looked at Xu Chunliang's sharp eyes: "I have never been interested in Western medicine."

Xu Chunliang said: "Perhaps Mr. Xue has already tried it, but came back disappointed."

Xue Renzhong said: "Mr. Xu's interest in me far exceeds his concern for my condition."

Xu Chunliang smiled and said: "Between doctors and patients, the most important thing is to be open and honest. Mr. Xue is very tight-lipped about his condition. Treating you is like hide and seek."

Xue Renzhong said: "I have made it clear enough. I really can't figure out what the relationship between my illness and my children is."

Xu Chunliang said: "Everything has a cause and effect. With all due respect, if you and your companions had not been greedy for that cold jade coffin, we would not have ended up in the consequences we have now. I still have some respect for Young Master Ling. I understand, I know that his purpose in choosing Bai Mushan as his mentor is not simple, I also know that Bai Mushan has been trying to find the missing part of the Yellow Emperor's Inner Canon from the oracle bone inscriptions."

Xue Renzhong secretly took a breath of air. Xu Chunliang was more powerful than he expected. There was an information difference. Xue Anliang did not tell his father that he was controlled by Xu Chunliang.

Xu Chunliang said: "I might as well make another guess. Is the cold jade coffin Mr. Xue encountered nearby?"

Xue Renzhong's heart was full of shock. This young man was so extraordinary. His expression remained calm: "Mr. Xu's imagination is really rich."

Xu Chunliang said: "The reason why I think so is because Mr. "

Xue Renzhong chuckled and said: "Mr. Xu, my daughter is a state worker and my son is also a doctoral student at a prestigious university. Do you think I will let them take risks for me?" He shook his head: "Even if I die, I will not be involved. them."

Xu Chunliang said: "How many years has it been since Mr. Xue suffered from cold poison?"

Xue Renzhong said: "Twenty years."

Xu Chunliang shook his head: "It's more than that."

Xue Renzhong said: "Twenty-one years is the most."

Xu Chunliang said: "Is it possible that you remembered wrongly? It was thirty years ago when you were trapped in the cold jade coffin, and you had not yet had children at that time."

Xue Renzhong said nothing.

Xu Chunliang said: "In that case, I mean if that is the case, your children may be affected by the cold poison of the netherworld. They have made some efforts, not only to save you, but also to save themselves."

Xue Renzhong said: "Mr. Xu is really young and mature."

Xu Chunliang said: "Mr. Xue doesn't seem to be praising me."

Xue Renzhong said: "Nice to meet you, Mr. Xu. I would like to ask, what do you want?"

Xu Chunliang said: "With Mr. Xue's wisdom, he should be able to guess it."

Xue Renzhong sighed and said, "I'm a little hesitant now. I don't know if I can afford your consultation fee."

Xu Chunliang smiled and said: "I never force others to do anything. Mr. Xue, I have something to do. I'll take my leave now. If you need anything, please contact me at any time." He picked up the cold jade knife on the table and said, "I'll save this knife for you first." .”

Xue Renzhong said: "I gave it to you."

Xu Chunliang stood up, and Xue Renzhong said again: "This warm jade pot is also given to you."

Xu Chunliang looked at Xue Renzhong with interest. This man was really generous. Xu Chunliang did not refuse. He picked up the warm jade pot and poured the tea in the pot to Xue Renzhong: "Then I will be disrespectful."

After Xu Chunliang left, Xue Anning came to her father: "Dad, did he take it?" Her eyes fell on the empty coffee table. What she was talking about was the cold jade knife, but she didn't expect that Xu Chunliang also took away the warm jade pot. .

Xue Renzhong said: "This young man is very extraordinary. Let your brother go to my room."

Xue Anliang came to his father's room and saw his father's expressionless face. He had a premonition that something was wrong and said cautiously: "Dad, has Xu Chunliang promised to treat you?"

Xue Renzhong looked at him coldly and said, "How many things are you hiding from me?"

Xue Anliang said: "No..."

Xue Renzhong slapped the table hard, making Xue Anliang fall to his knees with a plop.

Xue Renzhong gritted his teeth and said, "If you didn't tell me, how could he know so many things?"

Xue Anliang said: "Dad, when I met him, he was only interested in Bai Mushan's affairs. You also know that Bai Mushan's dragon bones were deceived from Huichun Hall. He is a descendant of Huichun Hall. It is normal to seek justice. I didn’t say a word about our family.”

Xue Renzhong said: "You keep saying that you are friends with him. It's not that I look down on you. You are far different from him in terms of scheming. How could he be willing to be friends with you? He is just using you."

Xue Anliang said: "I understand, I naturally know that he is using me."

"Knowing that you are still willing to be used by him?"

Xue Anliang knew that he could no longer hide it, so he told the story of how he had sneaked into Xu Chunliang's residence to steal the dragon bone, but was discovered by him and fed him poison.

Xue Renzhong was angry and helpless after hearing what his son said. He was so angry that this boy was being manipulated by Xu Chunliang. But he was helpless because he had seen how powerful Xu Chunliang was. His son was indeed no match for him. In front of Xu Chunliang, It's normal to stumble.

Xue Renzhong said: "Why didn't you tell me?"

Xue Anliang said: "I don't want you to worry about me, and even if I say it, it won't help."

Xue Renzhong said that he was still afraid of death, but in this way, the Xue family was completely passive in front of Xu Chunliang. Xue Renzhong was also a powerful man. How could he be led by others? He waved his hand to signal his son to get up.

Xue Anliang stood up and stood beside his father with his hands hanging down. The Xue family's tutoring was still very strict.

Xue Renzhong said: "What do you think I should do?"

Xue Anliang said: "Dad, Xu Chunliang is indeed a very talented person. I think if there is anyone in the world who can cure your disease, then he must be one of them."

Xue Renzhong said: "Everything has a price, and I believe he has the ability, but can we afford this consultation fee?"

Xue Anliang said: "Dad, Xu Chunliang is definitely not targeting us. Just like although he used means to blackmail me into doing things for him, he never felt sorry for me. His target should be Bai Mushan and others."

Xue Renzhong's eyebrows moved.

Xue Anliang continued: "Maybe we can cooperate with him without harming our own interests."
