Chapter 185 Fighting

Lin Yi stood there with a calm expression. He looked at Gu Jiayue with a firm gaze and said seriously, "Since I last saw your brother, I have been studying this poison. During this time, I have consulted countless medical books and repeatedly deduced various possible treatment plans. Now I am 60% sure that I can cure your brother."

Xiao Fuzi stood aside, with her head slightly lowered and her eyes flickering.

He first glanced at Jiang Luli cautiously, and after seeing Jiang Luli nod slightly, he said, "There is currently no antidote for this poison, but if I'm given enough time to research, with what I've learned in the Divine Doctor Valley, I'm confident I can give it a try."

Jiang Luli looked up at Gu Jiayue and said with a smile, "Xiao Fuzi studied under the Divine Doctor Valley, and his specialty is detoxification. Over the years, he has followed me all over the country and solved countless difficult and complicated diseases. You can rest assured in leaving this matter to him."

Gu Jiayue looked solemn. She first looked at Lin Yi, then turned her gaze to Xiao Fuzi. Her eyes were full of entanglement and worry. Finally, she asked tentatively: "Do you want to use a knife?"

Her voice trembled slightly, and the brain-opening treatment plan that Lin Yi had mentioned before involuntarily emerged in her mind.

In this ancient time when everything was relatively backward, opening the brain was undoubtedly an earth-shattering event. If one was not careful, it might lead to Gu Yuchuan's death.

Xiao Fuzi quickly shook her head and explained seriously, "No, this poison will eventually affect the brain, but it will first invade the lungs. As long as we find an antidote that counteracts it and prescribe the right medicine, it shouldn't be a problem."

After hearing this, Gu Jiayue breathed a sigh of relief.

Just when she was about to hand the matter over to Xiao Fuzi, Lin Yi suddenly looked anxious and said quickly: "Miss Gu, I have done a deep study on this poison. I can treat your brother now."

His eyes were filled with anxiety and desire. This rare poison seemed to him like a new medical challenge, and he was unwilling to miss it.

This type of poison is rare, and he had finally encountered a case, which was a once-in-a-lifetime research opportunity. If he missed it, he would never know when he would encounter it again, and his medical ideals might be hindered.

Gu Jiayue looked at Lin Yi with an embarrassment on her face.

She opened her mouth, wanting to say something, but didn't know how to start.

Dr. Lin's treatment plan is too wild. Brain surgery is hugely risky even in modern times, let alone in ancient times. How could I dare let my second brother try it?

Gu Jiayue's expression said it all.

Lin Yi saw her expression and felt lost.

He lowered his head slightly, his eyes full of frustration. Could it be that the treatment method he had always believed in was really wrong?

Once the seed of self-doubt was planted, it took root in his heart and sprouted instantly. He felt that he was becoming decadent.

"Miss Gu, I'm sorry for being rude. Since your brother has a more capable doctor treating him, I'll go back." He bowed, his voice low and lonely.

After saying that, he turned around and slowly left. His back looked more and more hunched, as if he had aged a lot in an instant.

Watching his lonely back gradually walking away, Gu Jiayue felt an inexplicable pain in her heart.

He was right. Truth often lies in the hands of a few. He was just ahead of his time. His treatment methods, which were not widely understood, were not wrong. It was just that few people knew about them, and the cure rate was low, which is why he was rejected.

If he is given the opportunity to continuously improve this method, he may be able to form a completely new treatment system.

"Mr. Lin, please stay!" Gu Jiayue couldn't help but speak to keep him.

Lin Yi stopped and turned back with a puzzled look on his face, "Miss Gu, is there anything else?"

Gu Jiayue looked at him firmly and said, "Mr. Lin, if you're not busy recently, you can stay in Taohua Village. You can discuss the detoxification method with Xiao Fuzi. Maybe the two of you will come up with new ideas through the collision of your wisdom."

She had a bold idea.

She only knows how to teach, and it is not easy for her to accomplish the ultimate task of educating 100,000 people on her own.

But what if you teach Lin Yi a completely new medical system?

Then Lin Yi will become the founder of surgical medicine, and many people will come to learn from him, and the word will spread from one to ten, and from ten to a hundred.

With Lin Yi's help, wouldn't more people be able to learn medical skills?

In this way, wouldn’t the speed of completing the task be greatly accelerated?

Lin Yi is a talented person. As long as he is given the opportunity, he will definitely shine.

Therefore, we should not only give him opportunities, but also do our best to help him grow.

"Xiao Du, please help me pick out a book on basic Western medicine." Gu Jiayue silently called the system. Xiao Du, now upgraded, had noticeably improved his work efficiency. [Okay, host, I've already selected the most economical "Surgery" (textbook) for you. This book is a must-have for medical students new to the field of surgery, and it will help build a comprehensive surgical knowledge system. Are you sure you want to purchase it?]

Gu Jiayue thought for a moment and felt that the book selected by the system was indeed good and very suitable for people like Lin Yi who only had a preliminary understanding of surgical medicine.

"Confirm to buy it." She responded decisively in her heart.

The system then prompted: [OK, purchased, total cost 320 Education Points.]

When Gu Jiayue heard the reminder, she felt a pang of pain in her heart.

It’s so expensive, really so expensive.

But for the sake of her education, and to allow Lin Yi to make further progress in medicine, she had no choice but to grit her teeth and spend the money.

When Lin Yi heard Gu Jiayue's words, he was stunned at first, then looked up at her in disbelief. "Miss Gu, you..."

His eyes were filled with shock and gratitude, and for a moment he didn't know what to say.

Gu Jiayue smiled and looked at him with wise eyes, as if she could see through his thoughts. "Stay, Mr. Lin. I promise you won't regret it."

Please don’t leave, otherwise this medical book that I spent so much money on will be wasted.

Jiang Luli stood aside and watched all of this.

He didn't understand why Gu Jiayue wanted to keep Lin Yi when she had Xiao Fuzi, who had better medical skills.

Could it be that she really fell in love with Lin Yi?

He looked at Gu Jiayue inconspicuously and found that she was looking at Lin Yi affectionately, with an eager look in her eyes, wanting Lin Yi to stay.

Jiang Luli felt discouraged.

Is Lin Yi really that good?

He just knows a little bit of medical skills, and Xiao Fuzi's medical skills are not bad either.

But he did not show his dissatisfaction. Instead, he followed Gu Jiayue's thoughts and invited Lin Yi: "Yes, Mr. Lin, please stay. Taohua Village has nice people and beautiful scenery. If you stay, you can not only discuss treatment methods with Xiao Fuzi, but also teach the children in the school some basic medical skills in your free time."

As soon as Jiang Luli's words came out, Gu Jiayue and Lin Yi's eyes lit up instantly.

Gu Jiayue turned around and glanced at Jiang Luli in surprise. She couldn't help but sigh in her heart, he is indeed a big shot, his mind is really quick.

Yes, Lin Yi can stay in the village to teach.

Not all children are suitable for the imperial examination. Those who are not suitable can study medicine.

She never thought that Lin Yi would refuse. In her opinion, as long as she took out the medical book, how could Lin Yi, a medical fanatic, refuse?

Lin Yi was overjoyed. He didn't expect that things would take such a turn for the better and he would have the opportunity to participate in the treatment of Gu Yuchuan.

Now he no longer expected to be able to treat the disease alone. He would be satisfied as long as he could watch and learn Xiao Fuzi's detoxification method.

"Really? Thank you very much, Miss Gu. Don't worry, Miss Gu, I will work hard on my research to increase the possibility of curing your brother." He said excitedly, with a slight tremor in his voice.

"Mr. Lin, you don't have to be so polite." Gu Jiayue said with a faint smile, then turned to look at Jiang Luli. "Master Jiang, are there any rooms left in the courtyard?"

That courtyard was originally mine, but now I don’t even know if there are any vacancies.

Alas, it’s so sad.

Jiang Luli smiled and replied, "Yes, don't worry, I will make arrangements for Master Lin."

He secretly planned in his heart, so he arranged Lin Yi to be by his side, and asked Xiao Fuzi to take him to study the antidote every day, so that he had no time to get close to Jiayue.

Hehehehehe.....

Watching the interaction between the two, Zheng Qinghe's face instantly turned as dark as the big iron pot in Gu Jiayue's kitchen that had been used for more than ten years.

For some unknown reason, he suddenly said, "I want to stay in Taohua Village too."

When everyone in the Gu family heard this, they looked at each other in surprise.

What? You want to stay?

Then won’t we be able to eat well every day in the future?

In their hearts, Zheng Qinghe was of noble status, and they were always nervous when interacting with him.

Gu Jiayue was thinking in her heart: Why does this person just come to join in the fun?

Jiang Luli snorted in his heart, his face full of disdain.

Gu Jiayue was the first to come to her senses. "As the county magistrate, Mr. Zheng must be very busy with official duties. There's no need to..." She tried to politely reject Zheng Qinghe.

Jiang Luli immediately chimed in, "There's only one empty room in the courtyard."

No one welcomed him, but Zheng Qinghe was determined to stay here.

He was filled with fear, and couldn't imagine if he left. Would the next time they met be to attend Yue'er's wedding?

No, this is too terrible. In his heart, Yue'er can only be his.

"I was the top scorer last year, so I can stay in the academy to teach. The county magistrate is in charge of the county government, and Taohua Village is not far from the county town. If there is anything urgent, I can go back quickly." After saying that, he looked at Gu Jiayue expectantly, with a hint of pleading in his eyes.

But Gu Jiayue frowned tightly and said seriously, "Mr. Zheng, as the chief official of Annan County, it is very irresponsible of you to do this."

Zheng Qinghe panicked when he heard this. "Yue'er, I didn't..." he tried to explain.

"Enough!" Gu Jiayue interrupted him coldly. "Do you think you're great? Worthy of praise?" Her eyes were filled with anger and disappointment. "But in my opinion, what you've done is incredibly childish. With your family and status, you shouldn't have to serve in such a remote place, but you're here. You asked for it. But now that you're here, you're taking this position and then failing to do your job properly. How can someone like you be qualified to be a government official? How can you be praised by the people?" She grew increasingly excited, her voice rising.

"Mr. Zheng, if you're an official who doesn't serve the people, you might as well go home and sell sweet potatoes. I hope you'll do your job and not let the local people down on you or the court!" She said righteously, her heart filled with resentment towards these noblemen. In her view, these noblemen had no idea how hard life was for the people below them. In their eyes, the empire, the power of the officials, were nothing more than toys for them to manipulate at will.

Jiang Luli looked at Gu Jiayue, and the corners of his mouth rose slightly.

He felt that Gu Jiayue was like a treasure house, and the more he got to know her, the more he could discover her richness and beauty.

Only a woman with such a rich spiritual core is worthy of his love and admiration.

Yes, he was absolutely certain at this moment that he really did like this girl. Her bravery and her justice deeply attracted him.

At this moment, Gu Jiayue seemed to be covered with a layer of sacred light. In Jiang Luli's eyes, she was so dazzling.
