Chapter 31 Helpless Divine Doctor; Heavenly Dao's pressure
Heavenly Dao's pressure
"Doctor Sun?"
Lin Lu looked at the incoming person, showing surprise on his face.
Upon hearing this nickname, Gu Lan also knew who it was. Sun Si'ao, the resident doctor of the most famous medical clinic, Rejuvenation Hall, in Langzhou City, was known as the Divine Physician.
The people within a radius of a hundred miles highly respected this elderly man.
"Master Lin."
Doctor Sun nodded at Lin Lu and then looked at Gu Lan. "And who is this young gentleman?"
"I'm Gu Lan, a friend of Brother Lin."
Out of respect for the physician, Gu Lan smiled slightly and introduced himself.
"Oh, Master Gu!"
Doctor Sun also nodded in acknowledgment, wasting no time and immediately stated his purpose, "Master Lin, since the day I diagnosed Miss Ling's illness, I have been unable to sleep. Although I'm not very confident this time, as a physician, I don't want to give up on her until the last moment."
Doctor Sun patted the silver needle bag in his hand. Lin Lu hesitated and said, "But... Doctor Sun, I haven't paid the medical expenses from before..."
Doctor Sun immediately waved his hand, "Forget it, Master Lin. I know about your sister's situation. Let's talk about that medical bill when you're more financially stable in the future!"
This old man truly lived up to the title of Divine Physician. Gu Lan, witnessing their interaction for the first time, silently admired.
For a medical practitioner, ethical conduct is paramount. Such a doctor is undoubtedly highly respected throughout the city.
Lin Lu was deeply moved and repeatedly expressed his gratitude.
Next, Doctor Sun didn't waste any time and went straight into the house, skillfully beginning to administer acupuncture to the patient.
"Old Yang, the patient is a girl. Please wait outside."
Gu Lan instructed before entering the house.
"Alright!"
Old Yang placed his luggage, squatted on a small mound in front of the fence, and waited.
...
When Gu Lan entered the house, Doctor Sun had already inserted many silver needles into the patient. Lin Lu was closely watching!
A quarter of an hour passed.
Doctor Sun administered needles multiple times, and weird purple patterns spread from the silver needles at some point. Afterward, the entire silver needle became useless!
"The needling technique and acupoints are correct... Why is it still like this?"
Doctor Sun frowned, pulling out each silver needle one by one. Gradually, he became somewhat anxious.
Lin Lu, seeing the worried expression on his face, clenched his fists nervously. Beads of sweat the size of beans appeared on his forehead!
Among the people present, he was undoubtedly the most anxious! During these days, Lin Lu had been desperately seeking a solution, fearing that he might not be able to save his sister!
But now, they were in the presence of the city's most skilled divine physician!
If he couldn't help this time... Lin Lu didn't dare to think deeply!
At this moment, Gu Lan walked over, patted him on the shoulder, and gave a comforting look, diverting his attention, "Brother Lin, what is Miss Ling's given name?"
"Lin Tan'er."
Lin Lu's voice was already choked, "Brother Gu, do you think my sister can wake up? I'm so scared..."
"Don't worry, I'll go and discuss it with Doctor Sun."
Gu Lan consoled, "Brother Lin, pay attention to your emotions, don't get too agitated. Otherwise, if Miss Ling wakes up and you fall ill, it won't be good."
In the mortal world, people became emperors due to their obsessions.
The sufferings they endured were undoubtedly far beyond the imagination of ordinary people!
But they also had to take care of themselves... because deep attachment leads to a shortened life.
After comforting him, Gu Lan came to the bedside for the first time and saw the girl named Lin Tan'er...
Unfortunately!
After carefully observing for a moment, this was Gu Lan's initial feeling!
As said by the common folks!
This Lin Tan'er was indeed exceptionally beautiful!
If subjective factors were excluded, it wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that she rivaled the lady.
She didn't possess the gentle and ethereal temperament of the lady but exuded a sickly, delicate beauty. The fragility of a woman was vividly displayed on this pale little face.
Because Gu Lan appeared to be an ordinary young gentleman, when Doctor Sun saw him approaching, his brows slightly furrowed!
It was inconvenient for bystanders to be around medical professionals, especially when the patient's condition was not optimistic at the moment!
However, Doctor Sun didn't say anything. He still needed to concentrate on using the remaining silver needles, trying every method he could think of!
At this moment, Gu Lan bent down to pick up a discarded silver needle, staring at the purple patterns on it, lost in thought.
If he guessed correctly, Lin Tan'er's illness was not an ordinary malady... The residual aura on this silver needle gave a feeling of cold and true energy.
But why would cold true energy need to be replenished with the use of Soul Spirit Grass, a cold medicinal herb?
And the characteristics of this illness were so obvious, yet it wasn't introduced in the original text...
In contemplation, Gu Lan finally had a realization!
Doctor Sun wiped the sweat from his forehead and shook his head slightly, turning to Lin Lu with a full expression of apology, "Master Lin, I'm sorry. All the silver needles have been used up, and I can only make Miss Tan feel more comfortable. However, I haven't figured out the correct medical method... I'm incompetent!"
Lin Lu trembled all over!
After a long while, he wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes, forced a smile, and said slowly, "Doctor Sun, it's not your fault. Let me see you off..."
Doctor Sun nodded, showing a apologetic expression.
When the two were about to walk towards the courtyard gate, Gu Lan suddenly spoke, stopping them.
"Wait!"
"Lin brother, when Sister Ling's illness broke out, was there any Yin cultivator, spiritual cultivator, or other Superb Spirit Pill such as Cold Yin around?"
Gu Lan opened his eyes, and a gleam of light flashed, as if he had an idea.
Both of them halted their steps. Lin Lu stared blankly and said, "No."
"Then... has your sister had a cold constitution since childhood, even during the hottest days of summer?"
Gu Lan continued to ask.
"Indeed," Lin Lu answered affirmatively.
However, these pieces of information were known to the local doctors who examined her, but none of them paid much attention, thinking it was just a case of a delicate girl with insufficient Yang energy.
However!
After hearing this, a faint smile appeared on Gu Lan's lips. "Master Sun, don't rush to leave, I... should know what kind of illness it is."
Upon hearing this, Lin Lu was directly stunned!
Sun Si'ao raised his eyebrows slightly, somewhat surprised. "Does Young Master Gu also understand medical arts?"
"A little."
Gu Lan neither confirmed nor denied it.
To be precise, he didn't understand mortal medical arts but rather celestial medical arts!
If it were an ordinary person without true qi in their body, Gu Lan might not be much better than the old divine physician. However, in this case, Lin Ling had an inexplicable cold true qi in his body!
"Young Master Gu, since you know what the illness is, do you know the method of treatment?"
Lin Lu's tone was somewhat excited, and his eyes, which were once dull, now showed a lot of color.
"The method of treatment... you'll know at a glance!"
Gu Lan muttered, and neither of them understood.
However, what they didn't notice was that a clear light flashed in Gu Lan's eyes, slowly locking onto Lin Ling on the sickbed!
Heavenly Secret Technique- Qi-insighting Technique!
The reason for using it to calculate was that Gu Lan suspected the cold aura within Lin Ling's body was congenital, not some sudden strange illness!
It was simply not a sudden bizarre disease that ordinary people couldn't comprehend. Instead, Lin Ling had a physique different from ordinary people!
Gu Lan employed the Insight Technique.
Unexpectedly!
His body suddenly shook, and an immense pressure seemed to descend upon this place without warning!
What the heck... Heavenly Dao's pressure?!
Gu Lan was shocked with his gaze fixed firmly on the woman on the sickbed...
