Chapter 229 - 229 Probe

229 Probe

The Spiritual Doctor seemed to have predicted that the servant wouldn’t dare to attack him and he charged at the servant without restraint.

As he reached out to snatch the prescription, almost his entire body was pressed against the servant.

The servant dodged left and right. Although he was a little troubled, he didn’t let the Spiritual Doctor succeed.

Seeing this, Mr. Hua shouted at the two of them angrily, “What are you guys doing?!”

!!

The Spiritual Doctor was startled and his body trembled. Then, he lost his balance and fell to the ground.

The servant immediately took two steps back and bowed to Mr. Hua respectfully.

Mr. Hua waved at the servant. “Hurry up and buy the medicine! I’ll punish you if you delay things!”

The servant immediately obeyed and turned around to run out.

After the Spiritual Doctor stood up from the ground, he cursed as he watched Mr. Hua walk towards him. He had no intention of retreating.

After Mr. Hua rushed in front of the Spiritual Doctor, he gritted his teeth and asked, “What exactly do you want to do? Do you want to kill Shang’er?”

The spiritual doctor raised his bearded chin and said with a righteous look, “I’m doing this because I’m worried that Young Master Hua will be harmed by this little girl! I’m protecting Young Master Hua! You don’t understand my painstaking efforts. How can you criticize me?!”

Kong Rui walked forward and sneered at the arrogant Spiritual Doctor.

Her smile made the Spiritual Doctor’s expression even uglier. “You’re so young, but you’re so crooked that you use these harmful prescriptions!”

“How do you know that my prescription can only harm people instead of saving people?” Kong Rui wasn’t in a hurry to explain. Instead, she asked.

The Spiritual Doctor’s expression became even more furious. “The few herbs in your prescription conflict with each other. If they’re combined together, how can it save people? It’s simply poison!”

“Who said that poison is not medicine?” Kong Rui asked again, making the Spiritual Doctor furious.

“I’ve been a doctor for decades, but I’ve never heard of such a ridiculous thing!” The Spiritual Doctor said angrily. “Even if someone really uses poison to make medicine, they need to use light poison, unlike your prescription, which is simply lethal poison! Lethal poison!”

The Spiritual Doctor’s tone was filled with anger, making Mr. Hua hesitate as well.

Ding Mao was considered one of the top spiritual doctors in the empire.

Back then, when the few Spiritual Doctors were helpless, only Ding Mao dared to use medicine for treatment. This made Mr. Hua trust him a little.

However, his medicine seemed to have worsened Hua Shang’s condition, which made Mr. Hua suspicious. Yet, his words were not completely unreasonable.

If what Ding Mao said was true, could this prescription still be used?

Kong Rui also noticed Mr. Hua’s reaction, but she only smiled. “You’re blaming me for using poison for treatment despite your own incompetence? What kind of logic is that?”

“Even if I’m not competent enough, I know that although poison can cure people, you still have to pay attention to the usage.” Ding Mao reasoned, “Besides, your dosage is too high to treat people. It’s harmful!”

Kong Rui stared at Ding Mao for a long time before saying to Mr. Hua, “This Spiritual Doctor can be used. Let him stay.”

Not knowing how to react, Mr. Hua and Ding Mao were stunned and stared at Kong Rui in a daze.

Kong Rui shrugged. “Hua Shang’s condition can’t be cured in a short period of time and I can’t stay here for a long time either. You guys don’t know medicine and can’t take care of him, so it’s better to keep this guy here!”

Upon hearing Kong Rui’s words, Ding Mao was even more furious. “Little girl, why right do you have to arrange my schedule? I…” Ding Mao was about to introduce himself when Kong Rui interrupted him again.

“Alright! If you’re really that capable, go treat him!”

Kong Rui’s words immediately made Ding Mao lose his temper.

He was already at a loss as to how to treat him.

Hua Shang immediately vomited blood after he gave him medicine. He wanted to give up on Hua Shang’s treatment, but that went against his duty as a doctor.

Just as he was feeling helpless, this little girl appeared.

What was even more unbelievable was that she actually diagnosed his illness very quickly.

Although Ding Mao didn’t want to admit it, she had indeed discovered something that he had not.

Ding Mao was feeling conflicted when he heard Kong Rui continue to instruct, “I’ll demonstrate how to use the prescription tonight. How much you can remember will depend on your ability!”

When Ding Mao heard this, his mouth dropped agape.

Prescriptions were supposed to be kept a secret. This little girl was magnanimous enough to tell him?

Had he really misjudged her?
