"Grandpa, I can't cure you." Qin Zijin shook his head gently.
Mr. Su’s illness is so severe that even a god cannot cure it, let alone her.
The old man is now in his nineties. He had fought in the war and had many problems left. It is a miracle that he can survive until now. To be honest, Qin Zijin doesn’t know how the old man managed to survive.
The cause of the disease given by the system is the five signs of decline caused by natural aging and the degeneration of various body functions.
Since it is normal aging, there is no medicine that can treat it.
Qin Zijin was able to keep him alive thanks to the convenience of the system.
It's just to let him live longer and fulfill his unfulfilled wish.
"Oh? You can't cure me, then what did you mean by what you said in the hospital before?" Old Su narrowed his eyes coldly and looked at Qin Zijin with a cold light in his eyes.
Obviously, if Qin Zijin couldn't give a reasonable explanation, he would definitely not let her go.
Qin Zijin didn't find his reaction strange at all. She just smiled and looked at Su Lao with a calm expression. "Old man, if I hadn't saved you in the hospital, you would be lying in the morgue now, and you wouldn't be talking to me here."
Old Su didn't say anything, but just looked at Qin Zijin, sizing her up, trying to see how good she was.
Unfortunately, he couldn't see any clues.
Finally, he withdrew his gaze indifferently, his attitude no longer as cold and aggressive as before, "Then why did you come here today? You can't just come to tell me that I'm dying and you just gave me ten more hours of life, right?"
Mr. Su is very clear about his current physical condition.
Everything seemed normal to him, even like a healthy person without any illness, but he was now gradually beginning to feel that his body was no longer able to cope.
He didn't doubt Qin Zijin's words at all.
At the end of ten hours, he would surely be dead.
He felt unwilling to give up, always feeling that there were still many things he had not had time to do.
As for his old brother who died at that time, he didn't have time to visit his grave or say a few words.
He really didn't want to die like this.
What's even more unacceptable is that he would die in such an incompetent way in his later years.
"Although I can't cure your disease, I have a way that can allow you to live a few more years like a normal person." Qin Zijin pursed his lips and finally spoke slowly.
According to the instructions given by the system, theoretically you can live ten more years without illness or pain.
Once ten years are up, even gods cannot save you.
However, Qin Zijin didn't want to say too much.
After all, it is really too bizarre to allow someone to live ten more years for no apparent reason, especially an old man who is about to die.
She didn't want to be caught and dissected.
If this matter was not related to her future development, she would not bother to get involved in this mess.
"How many years?" Old Su was a little excited.
"Three to five years, it depends on you. If you can cooperate well, you can live a few more years. If you can't cooperate well, even if the gods come, it will be useless." Qin Zijin pondered for a while before giving a relatively reasonable answer.
Elder Su once again fixed his gaze on Qin Zijin. "What right do you have to say that? I've already consulted the country's top Chinese medicine expert, and he said that my body is already at the end of its strength and there's no chance of any improvement. If nothing unexpected happens, I will..."
He was halfway through his words when he thought of how Qin Zijin had rushed to the hospital today and pulled him back from the brink of death, and he suddenly shut up.
It seems that Qin Zijin has done what others cannot do.
This also made him more curious about Qin Zijin's identity.
"My teacher was a traveling doctor. He took a liking to me by chance and taught me medicine for several years. However, he had previously instructed me not to reveal his identity. Over the years, I have basically not demonstrated any of my medical skills, except when absolutely necessary, when human lives are at stake."
"My coming to save you this time is not without purpose. I need you to do me a favor." Qin Zijin looked at Mr. Su and did not beat around the bush. He honestly confessed that he had deliberately approached him with ill intentions.
Such a frank attitude actually made Su Laogao look at him a few times.
He chuckled softly, "I'm an old man. Tell me what you want me to do. Do you want money or power?"
"I don't need these things. I want to be able to get them myself. But, as you know, I opened a private restaurant. Because of some of the things I sell, it is inevitable that people will covet it. Now I have encountered a problem."
"A man named Chang Meng, who claimed to be the deputy manager of the State Guesthouse, took a fancy to the monkey wine I was selling. Not only did he hire someone to steal the wine, he also threatened to make things difficult for me if I didn't hand it over."
"Honestly speaking, I'm just an ordinary citizen. I naturally don't have the means to fight against such a big shot, so I need Mr. Su's protection."
"You protect my shop and let me run it smoothly, and I save your life. What do you think?"
After Qin Zijin stated his conditions, he stared at Mr. Su, waiting for his reply.
Mr. Su was slightly stunned.
He had thought about the various unreasonable demands Qin Zijin had made, and was even prepared to compromise.
But she never expected that she spent so much effort to save her life, just for this?
Just want a stable environment to run your own restaurant?
Since she was able to sneak into the hospital to save herself, it was impossible that she didn't know her identity.
With what she wants to do, even if she wants to be extremely rich, it is not impossible.
Mr. Su's opinion of Qin Zijin changed again.
He chuckled softly, then spoke, "I've met many people in my life, but this is the first time I've met someone like you. Okay, if this is just a small request, I can agree to it. I promise that no one in the entire Chinese nation will dare to cause trouble for you."
Qin Zijin raised an eyebrow, then her face was filled with joy, "Then it's settled. I'll give you a few injections first."
As he spoke, he opened the medicine box he brought with him and patted the golden needles, which made Old Su raise his eyebrows again.
Especially the exquisite and intricate patterns on the golden needles, which surprised him even more.
This golden needle doesn't look simple.
"Mr. Su, lie down and take off your clothes. Let's finish this quickly." Qin Zijin didn't want to waste time and just wanted to complete the task as soon as possible.
From now on, she will have a backer, and she can do whatever she wants in Guangzhou City.
Of course, Qin Zijin disdains to do such a thing.
After all, with the promise from Mr. Su, Qin Zijin will not be afraid of anyone no matter where he goes in the future.
