After hearing the news, Ling Ruofei discussed with Sun Yannan, "Let's go back to Kyoto. People like her always have good luck. She first received treatment from the Qiang doctor and has stabilized. Now she has sought the Guigu Strange Doctor so quickly. I'm afraid she will be fine this time."
Sun Yannan smiled and comforted him, "Let's wait and see. This may not necessarily be a good thing or a bad thing."
After Guigu arrived, he went to see those followers first. After that, he followed Ren's father and brothers to see Ren Jiayu, and listened to them talk about the treatment methods of Qiang medicine.
The strange doctor said, "You don't need my treatment anymore." Ren Jiayu was delighted to hear that, Ren Jiayong and Ren Changan also breathed a sigh of relief, only Ren Changlin lowered his head and remained silent.
The strange doctor said to the three brothers of the Ren family, "Have you found the little girl? I'd like to ask her in detail about her. Is that possible?"
Ren Changlin invited the strange doctor to their military tent to talk, so that if he wanted to ask about what happened that day, he could find more people to ask.
When they got to the tent, Ren Changlin asked, "Is Jiayu incurable?"
Guigu glanced at Ren Changlin and said, "Indeed."
Ren Jiayong and Ren Changan were surprised and asked, "What's wrong? Why is there no cure? But what was wrong with the Qiang doctor's treatment?"
The Ghost Valley Doctor said, "This poison can be cured by a spider, not the insects used by Qiang doctors. The cure isn't the insect's feces, but the juice from the spider's belly.
This insect is actually a common method used by Jianghu shayari. No matter how fancy it appears, it only appears to stabilize the wound, but in fact it blocks the toxin from being expelled from the body's surface. The toxin then enters and has now invaded the five internal organs, seven tendons and eight meridians."
Ren Jiayong and Ren Changan asked, "Do you have any other way to treat this disease?" "Why did the Qiang doctor want to harm people?"
The strange doctor shook his head and said, "I'm sorry, I can't do anything. That Qiang doctor might not have meant to harm anyone. He might have been unskilled and thought he could treat the patient like any other doctor. Or maybe he knew he couldn't and used this method to alleviate the pain."
As a doctor himself, Guiguzi Doctor was reluctant to harm others without solid evidence. However, given his skills, he did look down on those who acted recklessly without understanding.
Ren Jiayong asked in a trembling voice, "How long does Jiayu have left?"
The strange doctor said, "Only three to five days."
Everyone was silent for a while, with various emotions lingering in their hearts.
Ren Changlin suddenly asked, "Your Majesty, are you aware that Jiayu and the soldiers in the army have contracted strange red spots?"
The strange doctor nodded, glanced at Ren Changlin, and said, "Yes. When Duke Dingguo learned of this, he was worried that it was an epidemic. If it spread among the army, it would be very serious. After reporting it to His Majesty, His Majesty asked me to confirm whether it was an epidemic. So, I went to check on the soldiers first."
Ren Changlin nodded and said, "So it's an epidemic?"
The strange doctor said: "No, it won't be passed on to others."
Ren Changlin asked again, "Will the soldiers who already have red spots die within three to five days?"
The strange doctor said, "Those with only one red spot on their bodies may have a chance of survival. The others, like Miss Ren, are in better condition and can only survive five or six more days."
Everyone fell silent again.
After the Ghost Valley Doctor left, Ren's father and brother spent a difficult night.
Sun Yanan learned from Ling Ruofei that Ren Jiayu only had three to five days left, so he spent a little money to spread the news at the border market, and almost everyone knew that Ren Jiayu was about to die.
Unlike the sadness of Ren's father and brothers, everyone in the market and even in the mansion where Ren Jiayu lived appeared relaxed and happy.
Ling Ruofei secretly breathed a sigh of relief, opened the portrait of the little girl, and bowed: "Thank you for saving me from suffering."
Sun Yannan was overjoyed when he saw this and said with a smile: "Do you think this little girl is Guanyin Bodhisattva?"
She looked at the portrait and was stunned.
The Ghost Valley Doctor wanted to know about this little girl because the poison belonged to the Ghost Valley. He heard that his uncle, who had not been seen for a long time, had accepted a young disciple.
If it was this little girl, then although they were not from the same branch in Guigu, his master had to call the little girl's master "uncle", which meant that the little girl's seniority in the sect was higher than his.
Sun Yanan stared at the portrait for a long time. Isn’t this child Canglan’s daughter?
The next morning, Guigu was awakened by an unceremonious knock on the door. He went to see who it was, but after seeing who it was, he couldn't do anything about it. He turned around and walked in, asking, "What are you doing here?"
This person was none other than the fellow disciple of Guiguzi who had helped the strange doctor “steal” all of Qu Hongfu’s banknotes and deeds.
"I came to ask you to help my apprentice's dog. No, my apprentice's friend, but now it's a dog."
Guiguzi Doctor: .... Am I not awake yet?
Then I saw the little girl in the scroll coming in holding a dog.
The strange doctor asked, "Is this your disciple?"
"Could it be that you took it?"
The strange doctor thought: Who is the last disciple accepted by my uncle?
Sun Yannan also found the inn where the Ghost Valley Doctor was staying. Ren's father and brother arranged the best room for him in a very good inn on the border, but they could not stop his fellow disciples from knocking on the door early in the morning, nor could they stop Sun Yannan who used money to pave the way.
When Sun Yannan heard that Guigu had arrived at the border, she asked around for information about the little girl, even asking a lot of people in the barracks. Instead of asking everyone, she decided to ask Guigu's strange doctor directly.
