NOVEL WEB Chapter 15 Get Out
“Of course, it’s you,” Jun Jiu replied, looking coldly at Doctor Zhao. “His cold syndrome is congenital, and he has been weak since birth. Fire Ganoderma is a potent warming medicine. If he takes two pills, it won’t save him, but it might kill him.”
“You’re speaking nonsense!” Dr. Zhao huffed, his beard bristling as he glared at Jun Jiu.
Jun Jiu walked over and crouched in front of the young man, ignoring the slave’s irritated glares. She confronted him with a chilling gaze, saying, “If you don’t want him to die, step aside.”
“You! Do you know who my young master is? Why should you treat him?” The slave’s voice trembled with anger.
Jun Jiu cast a cold glance at him, her eyes locking onto his. The slave froze in place, a fearful expression in his eyes. Jun Jiu extended her hand, and the slave retreated in fear, no longer daring to obstruct her.
Doctor Zhao, standing at the side with a dark expression, stared intently at Jun Jiu. He wanted to see what this young girl was capable of and how dare she question him! His name, Zhao He, was not only well-known in Fengluo City but also not far from the Imperial City. He stated that the young man was incurable, and he would definitely not be able to save him.
Doctor Zhao believed that this would not be his fault, especially with the use of Fire Ganoderma!
Everyone was curious, craning their necks to see what Jun Jiu was doing. She took hold of the young man’s hand, lifting him up slightly, and pressed her fingers against his stomach.
Suddenly, the young man vomited, spitting out the Fire Ganoderma he had just ingested.
Jun Jiu took out a pill and fed it to the young man. Simultaneously, she instructed the servant, “Fetch a bowl of warm water.”
“Alright, I’ll go!” The servant hurriedly went to the nearby teahouse to get hot water. After feeding it to the young man, they watched as his breathing gradually stabilized, and his complexion improved.
Doctor Zhao couldn’t believe his eyes as he witnessed this turn of events. “How can this be!”
He rushed over to examine the young man’s pulse. To his surprise, the young man’s energy channels had been chaotic and on the verge of collapse earlier, but now not only was the Qi in his body stable, but even the severe cold syndrome had vanished.
Just moments ago, he had ridiculed Jun Jiu, but now he was slapped in the face by reality. Doctor Zhao’s face alternated between shades of blue and white.
Everyone fell silent after seeing Dr. Zhao taking the young man’s pulse. The young man had just shown considerable improvement. It was evident that Doctor Zhao had indeed administered the wrong medicine, and this young girl had saved the young man’s life.
For a moment, everyone’s expressions were a mixture of embarrassment and panic. They had humiliated Jun Jiu moments ago, and now they were feeling ashamed.
“Sir, are you feeling better?”
“I’m fine,” the young man replied, looking up at Jun Jiu. “Thank you for saving me. My name is Yun Qiao.”
Despite his earlier weakness from illness, Yun Qiao appeared quite handsome and was a fine young man.
Jun Jiu leaned slightly towards Yun Qiao, offering a nod. “I’m Jun Jiu.”
“Jun Jiu?” The crowd couldn’t believe their ears. They had heard of a notorious waste named Jun Jiu in Fengluo City. How could this possibly be the same person? How could that useless person possess greater medical skills than Doctor Zhao?
Jun Jiu’s actions had saved a life, and she couldn’t stand by and watch a quack doctor take one. She instructed Yun Qiao, “Keep some Nuanxin Yiqi pills on hand; they’ll be more effective than anything else when you fall ill.”
“What are Nuanxin Yiqi pills?” Yun Qiao asked in puzzlement.
Jun Jiu hesitated briefly, realizing that she was not in Huaxia, and her medical knowledge might not be applicable here. There likely were no Nuanxin Yiqi Pills in this world. She quickly changed her mind and said, “I’ll show you.”
“Show me?” Yun Qiao was curious.
Jun Jiu found herself quite fond of Yun Qiao and extended her hand, gesturing for him to follow her.
