Although revealing the truth now would be extremely cruel to Shangguan Hongyu.
Actually, if you think about it carefully, it's cruel no matter when you say it.
The longer it drags on, the more psychological pressure it will put on Shangguan Hongyu, who will always feel that her inability to conceive is her fault.
Bian Lang thought for a moment and said, "Hong Yu, there's something I have to tell you. Actually, I..."
Just then, the little girl in the old woman's arms suddenly started convulsing.
The old woman just held her tightly, trying desperately to calm her down.
Judging from the girl's symptoms, Bian Lang suspected that she had epilepsy.
During an epileptic seizure, the patient should be laid flat on the ground with their head turned to the right to prevent choking and suffocation.
Holding the girl down like an old woman to prevent convulsions is more harmful to the young girl than an epileptic seizure.
If the convulsions are too violent, pressing down like this could easily cause the little girl to fracture a bone.
Bian Lang stepped forward, took off his coat and spread it on the ground, then took the little girl from the old woman's arms and made her lie flat on the coat.
Although the little girl wasn't foaming at the mouth, she was still swallowing rapidly. Bian Lang carefully turned the little girl's head to the right.
The old woman stared blankly at the convulsing little girl, without stopping or scolding Bian Lang.
The people in line all turned to look, and even though they felt sorry for the little girl, they wouldn't let her go to the front of the line.
Everyone is suffering and in pain.
“Husband, I think her condition is very serious, should we…” Shangguan Hongyu knew the rules of the Ghost Doctor Sparrow, but if they used force, they could definitely beat Sparrow into treating the girl first.
Bian Lang sighed, "It's just an epileptic seizure; it'll be fine in a bit."
With the current level of medical technology in the world, epilepsy is definitely incurable.
Even in the world Bian Lang lived in before his transmigration, epilepsy was an incurable disease.
Some types of refractory epilepsy are difficult to control regardless of the medication used or even surgery.
Even the Ghost Doctor Sparrow probably can't help this little girl.
After a while, the little girl finally stopped convulsing, but her eyes were still somewhat vacant.
Bian Lang unscrewed the water bag, brought it to the little girl's lips, and said with a smile, "Here, have some water."
The little girl gulped down several mouthfuls, then grinned and smirked at the side.
Bian Lang helped her up and said with a smile, "Go and hug Grandma."
Given that old woman's age, she shouldn't be able to give birth to a child that young.
But nothing is absolute, and Bian Lang isn't afraid of being proven wrong.
The little girl ran into the old woman's arms and called out "Grandma" in her childish voice.
But the old woman did not react at all.
Shangguan Hongyu stepped forward to check and found that the old woman had already stopped breathing.
But seeing tears welling up in the old woman's eyes, Shangguan Hongyu couldn't help but sigh.
It was clear that the young girl was ill, and the old woman died from a sudden attack of anger.
"Little sister, who else is in your family?" Shangguan Hongyu asked softly.
The little girl shook her head.
The little girl had no idea that her grandmother, with whom she depended on each other, had left her forever.
"Honey, what should we do?" Shangguan Hongyu was at a loss.
The other patients were indifferent; clearly, no one cared about the little girl.
A little girl who is just over three years old will surely die if no one takes care of her.
Bian Lang sighed, "It seems this is fate's arrangement. Let's bury the old man first."
Bian Lang took the old woman's body to a dense forest on one side, found a place that seemed like auspicious, dug a pit, and buried the old woman.
The little girl nestled in Shangguan Hongyu's arms, watching curiously, not understanding what was happening.
She didn't cry or make a fuss about finding her grandmother; perhaps her usual interactions with the old woman were characterized by silence.
"Little sister, what's your name?" Shangguan Hongyu then asked with a smile.
The little girl tilted her head and thought for a long time before finally saying, "Yao Yao..."
"That sounds beautiful." Shangguan Hongyu smiled and patted her head.
After nightfall, a bonfire is lit, and sitting beside it can ward off the cold.
Yao Yao quickly fell asleep in Shangguan Hongyu's arms.
“Honey, shall we take Yao Yao back to Justice Fort?” Shangguan Hongyu suggested.
Yao Yao was very cute, but she was all alone and helpless. Shangguan Hongyu knew that she could not find a family nearby willing to adopt her.
These days, people generally prefer sons to daughters, let alone Yao Yao who is ill.
Even if a family were willing to adopt Yao Yao, Shangguan Hongyu wouldn't feel at ease.
Bian Lang laughed and said, "I'll listen to my wife."
They queued in the mountains for three days and three nights before it was their turn.
During these three days, Yao Yao did not have another attack, but her complexion was very poor.
"Master is tired and has decided to rest for a month. Please come back in a month." A fair-skinned boy came out of the clinic and said loudly.
Those who lined up to the front knelt down, crying and begging the ghost doctor Sparrow to have mercy.
Shangguan Hongyu originally respected Ghost Doctor Sparrow, but upon hearing this, her anger flared up, and she angrily asked, "We've been queuing for days, why won't you treat us?"
“Sister, there are people queuing up at Cuiyun Mountain all year round, but my master is also human and needs to rest.” The boy’s explanation was not unreasonable.
Shangguan Hongyu pulled Yao Yao in front of her and said, "How about this, I won't look at her, I'll just show this child."
“Our master hasn’t had a proper rest for three whole months. Is it too much to ask him to rest for just one month? Please come back in a month.” After saying this, the boy turned around and was about to return to the clinic.
Whenever Ghost Doctor Sparrow wants to rest, this situation will always occur.
Some people are very persistent; even when the Ghost Doctor Sparrow is resting, they still live in the forest.
But the vast majority of people will choose to leave.
Shangguan Hongyu suddenly drew her Red Rain Sword and pointed it at the boy's back, saying, "Go tell the Ghost Doctor that he must treat Yao Yao today."
The boy turned his head and glanced at it, looking rather helpless.
In previous years, a lot of people came to Cuiyun Mountain to cause trouble.
But in the past year, the people who came for treatment have been very well-behaved; at most, they would kneel on the ground and beg while crying.
Shangguan Hongyu was the first patient to draw his sword and seek medical help.
The boy quickly came out of the room and said, "Sister, Master said that even if you cut off his head, he still needs to rest."
"Put the sword away." Bian Lang picked up Yao Yao and strode towards the clinic.
Shangguan Hongyu sheathed her sword and followed closely behind.
Upon seeing this, the boy frowned and angrily said, "Can't you understand human language?"
"You're not even human if you stand by and watch someone die," Bian Lang mocked.
"You..." The boy was so angry that he couldn't speak, and swung his fist at Bian Lang who was approaching.
Bian Lang simply waved his hand, and the boy collapsed with a thud.
As they approached the door of the medical clinic, an extremely terrifying pressure emanated from within.
Bian Lang remained unmoved and, in a flash, entered the medical ward.
"What impressive internal strength." An old man with white hair and eyebrows lay on a rattan chair to the side, his eyes closed and his mouth slightly open, as if he were fast asleep.
Shangguan Hongyu looked around and asked in a cold voice, "Who...who is speaking?"
