First floor, lobby.

Xie Ling took a lot of effort to push through the crowd and get to the patient.

Yu Wei and others made way beside her, "We are doctors, please make way, please make way."

The love of watching fun is ingrained in human genes.

In a short while, the entire first floor was crowded with people.

Even the waiters couldn’t evacuate.

In the center, there lay a middle-aged man in his thirties or forties, with his eyes closed.

A graceful young woman was kneeling beside him, holding his arm and crying, with her hair full of jewels and jade shaking.

"My dear, without you, I will not be able to live... wuwuwu..."

Xie Ling frowned slightly.

On the way, she had heard from her disciples about the man's condition.

It was hard to tell what disease he had. His face was ashen and his lips were black and white as if he had been poisoned. Small black bugs kept popping out of his thighs, which was very scary.

Xie Ling lowered her eyes and glanced at the man's thigh, which was covered by a piece of clothing.

You can vaguely see something moving under the clothes.

She opened her lips.

"Ma'am, please move aside for a moment. I'll take his pulse."

The young woman stopped crying, sobbed and raised her head, looking at Xie Ling from head to toe suspiciously, "You?"

Xie Ling nodded.

The young woman stared at Xie Ling's pretty face, her eyes full of contempt.

"I don't want you to treat me. What kind of illness can a little girl like you treat? Don't make my husband's condition worse. Stand away from me."

The disciples widened their eyes and were very angry.

"Do you know who is standing in front of you?"

Xie Ling raised her hand, "That's all."

That's the way the world is.

Everyone has prejudices.

She was a young, beautiful woman, and no one believed in her medical skills.

Yu Lan snorted, "Junior Master, let's go and not show it to them."

Having said that.

The disciples of Mingyue Island did not move a step, including Yu Lan who was speaking.

The education they received from childhood to adulthood makes it impossible for them to remain indifferent when a life passes by in front of them.

Xie Ling had some guesses about the man's illness.

"It's okay, let's wait for the doctor to come and see him. We'll stand aside."

The clinic is not far from the hot pot restaurant.

As early as when the man fell into a coma, the waiter went to find a doctor.

The next moment, an old doctor with gray hair came hurriedly carrying a medicine box.

This old doctor has run a clinic in Kyoto for thirty or forty years and is quite famous.

The woman stood up immediately and said, "Doctor, you must save my husband. We will give you any amount of silver!"

Finish speaking.

For some reason, the woman turned her head and glanced at Xie Ling with an ambiguous look.

It makes people very uncomfortable.

Xie Ling was calm and composed.

The doctor nodded, half-knelt down, felt the man's pulse, and lifted his eyelids to look at him carefully.

His eyes gradually became solemn.

"It looks like it was poisoned."

"Poisoned?"

The young woman raised her voice and looked around.

"We just had hot pot today and didn't eat anything else! How could we be poisoned? Could it be that the food in the restaurant is not clean? Can't the shopkeeper come out and give us an explanation?"

The shopkeeper was a smart-looking middle-aged man with a goatee. He was not at all flustered and walked out of the crowd calmly.

"Madam, what you said is not right. There are thousands of people in my store every day. How come only your husband got into trouble?"

The young woman snorted, "I don't care. Anyway, someone got into trouble in your store. You must give me an explanation!"

"Oh no!" The old doctor who had been squatting on the ground suddenly changed his expression. "How come he was still alive just now, but now he is dying!"

He quickly pinched the man's philtrum, but the man on the ground looked increasingly pale, and he looked like he was dying.

At this moment, an exclamation suddenly broke out from the crowd.

"What is that?"

I saw dense black bugs crawling out from the man's thighs covered by clothes and spreading outwards rapidly.

The crowd around took several steps back in fear.

The old doctor was surprised and lifted the clothes covering the man's thighs.

I saw that the man's thighs were covered with black bugs. Those bugs seemed to have come out of his flesh and blood, which made people's scalp tingle.

The young woman turned pale with fear and screamed, "Sir!"

But he didn't dare to take a step forward.

The scene before my eyes was too weird.

"What is that?"

"Isn't this some kind of witchcraft?"

"It's so creepy, why don't you leave quickly..."

Black bugs grew out from the man's thighs and crawled onto his face and limbs, almost drowning him.

The onlookers got goose bumps all over their bodies.

The old doctor was so frightened that he dared not move, his face full of surprise.

He has been practicing medicine for forty-eight years and has never seen such a strange disease.

The young woman wailed, "My husband, why is your life so miserable? You just found a goddess to cure the plague, and now you are inexplicably poisoned..."

A dark light flashed in Xie Ling's narrowed eyes.

He asked in a cold voice: "You said he was just cured of the plague by the goddess. Did he take the medicine?"

Xie Ling's sudden cold expression made the young woman stunned for a moment, and she couldn't help but answer her question, "Yes, I took it. I got the medicine the day before yesterday. My husband said that the medicine tasted bad and didn't taste like herbs..."

Hearing this, Xie Ling walked straight forward and came to the man's side.

The disciples of Mingyue Island also gathered around.

They are not ordinary doctors who live in a small corner and have limited knowledge.

Mingyue Island teaches everything, and no difficult or complicated disease in the world can escape their eyes.

Looking at the man in front of them, everyone already had some guesses in their minds.

Yu Wei asked Xie Ling in a low voice, "Master Junior, is this a Gu?"

As Xie Ling nodded.

The disciples' eyes became hot.

This is a Gu!

I have only seen it in books, but now I finally see it in real life!

The disciples immediately surrounded the man, some were lifting his eyelids, some were taking his pulse, and some were catching bugs.

The people watching around, including the young woman and the old doctor, all dropped their jaws in shock.

Why aren't they afraid at all in such a creepy scene?

If I'm not mistaken, it's a bit fanatical...?
