Chapter 316 - Self Destruction

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Doctor Wu was really a little angry. Zhou Zhi was disobedient and his old injury had relapsed. He was the one suffering from this.

He was the one who racked his brains to treat his wound and tried his best to heal it quickly.

In Doctor Wu’s opinion, Zhou Zhi’s actions were not worth it at all.

However, Zhou Zhi smiled and said firmly, “It’s worth it.”

It was worth it even if he had to cut off another half of his body.

Hearing Zhou Zhi’s affirmative tone, Doctor Wu had nothing to say. After bandaging Zhou Zhi’s legs, he stood up and left without a word.

The room was quiet. The drug took effect and Zhou Zhi fell asleep in a daze.

When Su Xiaolu returned to the Ji Shi Hall, she immediately released some of Minister Li’s blood to develop an antidote for the plague.

Su Xiaolu took the blood and left. There was no time to lose. She had to develop the antidote as soon as possible.

This time, it could be confirmed that there was a death plague. It should have been spread by Minister Li after the rat ate Madam Li’s corpse and bit him.

With the antibodies in Minister Li’s blood, it wouldn’t take long to develop the antidote.

After Su Xiaolu left, Elder Sun bandaged Minister Li’s wound. He said to the disciples around him, “All of you, leave. This plague will end soon.”

Hong Zheng asked suspiciously, “Can that girl really do it?”

Elder Sun snorted. “If she can’t do it, no one else can. You have to know that we doctors have similar medical skills, but compared to the divine doctors of Minggu, that’s the difference between a human and a god. If she can’t develop an antidote, no one in this world can.”

“Master, you think too highly of that girl.”

Hong Zheng said with a smile. Although he agreed, he was still jealous.

Elder Sun smiled. “Of course. Learn from the girl during this period of time. A little bit of the divine doctor’s skill is a lifetime benefit to you. Don’t lose face. In terms of medical skills, she’s the divine doctor. Moreover, she’s a girl. Her temper is much better than that old man’s.”

Hong Zheng and the others nodded.

Minister Li asked in confusion, “Doctor, are you saying that the divine doctor of Minggu… is the girl just now?”

No one took it to heart.

“That’s right. Who would have thought that she would become the divine doctor of Minggu at such a young age? Her medical skills are outstanding. Unfortunately, it’s hard to find a divine doctor in this world. There are more ordinary doctors in this world.”

Hong Zheng sighed. It took them a lifetime to achieve this. Su Xiaolu could do it easily.

At such a young age, she had already left old doctors like them far behind.

Minister Li lowered his eyes and hid his tears.

Fate made fools of people.

“That’s right. Minggu is only willing to accept one disciple, and the divine doctor has become a legend. If her second brother hadn’t contracted the plague this time, we wouldn’t have had the chance to see her.”

Elder Sun smiled.

Hong Zheng nodded. That was true.

Minister Li asked, “Did the divine doctor’s second brother also contract the plague?”

“Yes, it’s done. Your wound has been bandaged and the house I prepared for you has been prepared. You can go and rest first.”

Hong Zheng started to pack his things.

No one noticed Minister Li’s abnormality.

Everyone was immersed in joy as the plague was about to be resolved.

Minister Li returned to the small room that the Ji Shi Hall had arranged for him. After closing the door, he cried and pounded his chest in pain. “Madam, Madam…”

He spent a lot of money to find the divine doctor, but there was no trace of him. However, because of the plague, he finally saw the divine doctor.

However, this was also because the divine doctor’s elder brother was sick. Otherwise, how could they see any traces of the divine doctor?

The divine doctors of Minggu were legendary doctors in the world. They had amazing medical skills, but they work behind closed doors. If they had disciples all over the world, his wife might have been saved.

The divine doctor, hehe…

He wanted to see how amazing this so-called divine doctor was. If she lost her family, would she suffer the same pain as him?

Hatred spread in his heart and grew crazily. He could not suppress it no matter what.

Minister Li gritted his teeth and closed his eyes which were filled with hatred. He raised his hand to wipe his tears.

When he opened his eyes again, his gaze had already calmed down.

Minister Li opened the door and went out to ask around where Su Xiaolu was.

As soon as he said that he was looking for Su Xiaolu because he had important news, someone would lead the way for him. When he reached the door, he said, “Miss Su is developing the antidote inside.”

After saying that, he left.

Minister Li also raised his hand to knock on the door and said, “Miss Su, I remember that I’ve taken a drug and forgot to tell you before. I just remembered that it might be useful, so I came to tell you.”

Su Xiaolu was grinding medicine. When she heard this, she quickly came out to open the door.

If Minister Li had really eaten any medicine, it was indeed important information.

Opening the door, Su Xiaolu asked gently, “Minister Li, you said that you took medicine. Tell me. It might really work.”

Minister Li walked into the house and said, “That medicine is…”

Minister Li’s gaze landed on the bright red bowl of blood. He walked over and knocked it to the ground before Su Xiaolu could react.

“You want to use my blood to develop an antidote? Dream on. I want you to experience the feeling of your loved one passing away. Hahaha… divine doctor… I want to see how you can save your brother now.”

Minister Li laughed. He took off his mask and swallowed a pill.

All of this happened too quickly for Su Xiaolu to react. By the time she reacted, it was too late.

Seeing Minister Li swallow the medicine, Su Xiaolu immediately ran over and sealed his acupuncture points, quickly sealing his lifeline. She pinched Minister Li’s chin and punched his stomach.

Minister Li curled up in pain and vomited uncontrollably. He only vomited a pool of black blood.

He laughed crazily. “It’s too late… Haha.”

The poison he ate was not ordinary poison. Even if Su Xiaolu was a divine doctor, it was too late.

Su Xiaolu’s eyes were red. She took out a medicine bottle, pinched Minister Li’s mouth, and forced him to swallow it. She only hoped that this medicine worth a thousand taels could save Minister Li’s life.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

Without Minister Li’s blood, she might still be able to develop the antidote in the end. However, her second brother might not be able to wait for the antidote…

Su Xiaolu gave Minister Li medicine. Without hesitation, she took out a small knife and cut Minister Li’s wrist to let his blood flow. Seeing that the blood that flowed out was all black, Su Xiaolu’s expression became heavier and heavier.

Minister Li smiled. “It’s too late. My blood and my flesh are useless now. You’re indeed a divine doctor to be able to save my life. But so what? You can’t save your brother.”
