C94 94th Chapter

Facing Bai Qing's sudden scolding, Jiegeng could only temporarily suppress the resentment and anger in her heart.

"Jiegeng, you go out first. I have something to discuss with Zhen'an King." Bai Qing's tone had already become stern.

"Yes." Jiegeng unwillingly left the room.

"I wonder what happened to imperial physician?" Duan Shuang raised his eyebrows.

"The other young man who came with you is that Ghost Doctor's disciple, right?"

Duan Shuang nodded. It seemed like Bai Lan had already told him everything.

"Regarding him, I have something to ask imperial physician for help. Since imperial physician has a grudge with that Ghost Doctor, I'm sure he wants to get rid of him as soon as possible." Duan Shuang also sat down.

" Oh? Looks like we thought of the same thing. " Bai Qing nodded," Bai Ye, the first task you take over is to capture this old ghost. "

"Grandfather, don't worry. I will naturally do it well. Besides, there is still a prince sitting here." Bai Ye looked at Duan Shuang with a half smile.

Duan Shuang turned his head and saw Bai Ye's face clearly. "It seems like the Bai family has really surpassed their master."

Bai Ye didn't do anything, but he had earned Duan Shuang's praise for nothing.

"You flatter me, Your Royal Highness." Bai Ye's attitude was flattering, but his eyes showed shrewdness.

"There is one more thing that I want to ask imperial physician about." Duan Shuang suddenly remembered something.

"Your Royal Highness, please speak."

"We were ambushed on our way to Anyang. I believe Bai Lan has told you about this. Jiegeng had suffered a very serious injury at that time. Why did she heal herself that night? This was really different from ordinary people. Also, the medicinal fragrance on Jiegeng's body seems to have the ability to cure the poison?"

Bai Qing's expression changed drastically once again. "This is a matter of Bai family. Forgive me for not telling you. If Your Highness has nothing else to say, please return to your residence to rest. As for the investigation of the assassination, Chee-ker and Lan-er will help Your Highness. Cheeer will talk to you about Ghost Doctor in detail."

He had already expected that Bai Qing would not tell him everything so easily. There was still a long way to go, and he would find out about it.

Duan Shuang smiled and left the room as well.

"Grandson will take his leave as well." Bai Ye bowed to Bai Qing.

Bai Qing nodded, but still reminded, "Remember, do not reveal any information to Jiegeng for the time being."

"She will find out sooner or later. What's the point of hiding it from her now?" Bai Ye's words were also filled with helplessness.

"Maybe we don't have to reach that step in the end." Bai Qing's voice was hoarse.

"It's almost a thousand years. If there really was another way, we wouldn't have delayed until now, where we can't escape." Bai Ye mercilessly broke Bai Qing's fantasy.

After Bai Qing heard this, his entire body immediately fell onto the chair. In an instant, he looked as if he had aged a few more years.

"Grandson misspoke." Bai Ye immediately lowered his head.

Bai Qing shook his head. "Withdraw."

After a while, there was a knock on the door outside Bai Qing's room.

"Senior, Ouyang Lingfeng requests an audience."

"Come in."

"What's the matter?" Ouyang Lingfeng stepped into his room and Bai Qing asked casually.

"Junior has a request. I hope senior can agree to it." After Ouyang Lingfeng entered, he immediately knelt down.

However, Bai Qing didn't even look at him. "Tell me first, what is it?"

"I hope senior can save Shihan." Ouyang Lingfeng became more and more sincere.

"It must be that red doll." Only now did Bai Qing look at Ouyang Lingfeng. "Forgetting God?"

Ouyang Lingfeng immediately raised his head in excitement. "Senior saw through it!"

"Shihan was afflicted with the Forgetting God three years ago and has yet to be cured. Senior could tell from just observing that Shihan was poisoned and must have a way to save her. Senior, please cure Shihan of the poison. "

"Those who forget their mind will gradually lose their consciousness within half a year. In the end, they will become living corpses." Bai Qing seemed to be talking to himself. "Furthermore." Bai Qing suddenly raised his tone, "The name of 'Forgetting God' comes from the Bai family's secretary. How did you know? She was still alive and kicking in the past three years. How did you do it?"

" It was my master who told me and treated her. However, Nian Shihan suddenly fell into a strange coma, and the pill had no effect on her. At this moment, my master suddenly appeared in the capital and found out that Shihan was poisoned by the 'Forgetting God'. Furthermore, she was also poisoned by the 'Forgetting God'. He taught me the method to relieve it. Master told me that in the entire world, those who can cure this poison... Senior is the only one."

" It's Ghost Doctor? " Bai Qing asked even though he knew the answer.

"Yes. My master is Ghost Doctor."

"You can leave. I can't cure this poison." Bai Qing withdrew his gaze from Ouyang Lingfeng.

"Senior!" Ouyang Lingfeng kowtowed heavily. "Senior, please show mercy and save Shihan. She is Jiegeng's cousin, after all."

"It is not that I do not want to resolve it, but I am unable to help her. Now that you are using medicine to control it, isn't the situation very stable?"

" Senior, this medicine won't be able to last much longer. Right now, we are only suppressing the poison. Once it erupts again... It's really hard to save it. Since this poison came from the secretary of a senior family, senior must have a way to save it! " After saying that, Ouyang Lingfeng once again heavily knocked his head against the ground.

"As long as senior can have Shihan, I will agree to any conditions!"

"Young man, even if you knock this floor through, I will not be able to undo it." Bai Qing did not think much and immediately rejected.

"Senior..."

"Alright, you can leave now." From his words, it was obvious that Bai Qing was starting to get annoyed.

Ouyang Lingfeng knew that even if he stayed here today, Bai Qing wouldn't let go of him, so he could only leave Bai Qing's room for the time being.

After Ouyang Lingfeng left, he didn't return to the mansion, but went to another place.

"Master." Ouyang Lingfeng entered the mansion and was disappointed.

"That old man didn't agree, did he?" Ghost Doctor smiled like a ghost.

"Yes." Ouyang Lingfeng was discouraged.

"I told you not to beg Bai Qing. As long as you can get the medical book, all the difficulties will be solved. So, you should work faster at Jiegeng."

"Master, I don't understand. Since Jiegeng also knows the contents of the entire medical book. Why don't you just tell her about Shihan's situation? Based on her character, if she knew that Shihan was in trouble, she would definitely take the initiative to treat her. Why must she get the entire medical book? "

"The Bai's Medical Scripture is exquisite and extraordinary. The method to save it is not written in it. Besides, this' Forgetting God 'is a combination of several poisons. Even though Jiegeng's mind is filled with this medical book, even if she wants to save it... She doesn't have this skill. " Ghost Doctor said disdainfully.

"Why does Master know so well? This book is the secretary of Bai family. Even though Jiegeng trusted me before, she still kept it a secret. How did Master know the contents of the book? " Ouyang Lingfeng couldn't help but feel suspicious.

"Many years ago, due to fate and coincidence, I was fortunate enough to read it. Naturally, I would know about it." In the face of Ouyang Lingfeng's suspicion, Ghost Doctor was rather calm.

"If you don't believe me, you can directly ask Jiegeng to see if she can resolve it."

"Since Master also said so, I will naturally go back and ask." Ouyang Lingfeng still treated Ghost Doctor more and more seriously. Instinct told him. Ghost Doctor's goal was to obtain this medical skill. Previously, he repeatedly emphasized that Jiegeng could not cure the poison was just a fabrication.

Ever since Bai Qing came out of his room, Jiegeng had been staring blankly in her room alone. Her heart had been struggling with the truth that she found out today.

Suddenly, the door was pushed open.

Jiegeng looked up in a daze and saw Ouyang Lingfeng's anxious look.

"Brother Ouyang, what's the matter?" Jiegeng asked weakly.

"Jiegeng, do you know how to cure the poison of the Forgetting Mind?" Ouyang Lingfeng opened the door.

"Forgetting God? What kind of poison is this?" Jiegeng looked at Ouyang Lingfeng in confusion.

"You don't know!" Ouyang Lingfeng almost roared out.

"What's wrong with you? I don't know." Jiegeng looked at Ouyang Lingfeng, who looked very different at this moment.

"Isn't there a way to solve the 'Forgetting God' in Bai's Medical Scripture?" Ouyang Lingfeng continued to question. At the same time, he grabbed Jiegeng's wrist and pulled her up.

At this moment, Jiegeng immediately became alert. "As expected, you guys are after this medical skill book!"

"Ouyang Lingfeng, what are you crazy about!" Duan Shihan rushed over when she heard him. "Why are you yelling at Jiegeng?"

When Shihan saw Ouyang Lingfeng interrogating Jiegeng, she immediately went forward and knocked Ouyang Lingfeng's hand off. "What are you doing? You still want to use force!"

When Duan Shihan met Ouyang Lingfeng's eyes, her heart immediately trembled. When had she ever seen Ouyang Lingfeng's fierce side?

Ouyang Lingfeng looked at Shihan and immediately used his knife to knock her out from behind.

Shihan fell into Ouyang Lingfeng's arms in an instant.

"Are you crazy?!" Jiegeng looked at Ouyang Lingfeng's every move in disbelief.

Ouyang Lingfeng ignored Jiegeng and carried Shihan to the bed first.

"What exactly do you want to do!? Why did you hurt Ms Shihan?" Jiegeng immediately went forward to check on Shihan's condition.

"Shihan, she was poisoned by the Forgetting God Poison." Ouyang Lingfeng looked at Shihan's face powerlessly. He raised his head and immediately changed into a ruthless expression. "So, please do not hide it and cure this poison."

"Ms Shihan was poisoned?" Jiegeng immediately put a finger on Shihan's inch.

"I am not aiming for your Bai family's secretary. I only hope that you can save Shihan." Ouyang Lingfeng forcefully suppressed his impulse.

"My medical skills are limited. I can't diagnose that Ms Shihan was poisoned. Furthermore, this is the first time I've heard you say 'Forgetting God'. This kind of poison doesn't even appear in 'Bai's Medical Scripture'." Jiegeng also looked at Ouyang Lingfeng in disappointment.

" How is this possible! " Ouyang Lingfeng still refused to believe it.

"Let's go and find grandpa. Grandpa must have a way!" Jiegeng immediately rushed out, and Ouyang Lingfeng followed closely behind.

Jiegeng rushed to Bai Qing's room in a hurry, "Grandpa, quickly come and see Ms Shihan!"

Ouyang Lingfeng stared at Bai Qing and frowned.

"Is it to forget about God?" Bai Qing sighed.

"Grandpa, you know!"

"This kid came to find me just now. I told you, I really can't solve it." Bai Qing shattered Ouyang Lingfeng's hope once again.

"How could that be?" Jiegeng had a look of disbelief. "Grandfather, you should go and take a look first!"

Bai Qing waved his hand. "Although this poison was inflicted by my Bai family's secretary, I really can't do anything about it."

"Grandpa, but I don't have it..."

"Alright, you guys can leave now!" Bai Qing hurriedly interrupted Jiegeng's next words.

Jiegeng was really angry with her grandfather's attitude. She quickly went forward to pull Bai Qing's hand. "You haven't even seen it. Why can't you just say it?"

Bai Qing mercilessly shook Jiegeng off. "Enough. It's getting more and more ridiculous. Jiegeng, you have followed me for so many years. You should know that if I say I can't save her, I can't save her."

Jiegeng was stunned on the spot.

"Let's go out." Bai Qing mercilessly chased the two out of the room.

Jiegeng absentmindedly returned to her room and looked at Shihan who was lying on the bed. "Brother Ouyang, is Ms Shihan really poisoned?"

Ouyang Lingfeng quietly walked to the bedside and looked at the woman on the bed in a daze and silently nodded his head.

"When did she get poisoned? What will happen in the end?" Jiegeng looked at Ouyang Lingfeng's expression and knew that he wasn't lying. At this moment, her words carried a sobbing tone.

"Three years ago. In the end, I wanted to become a living corpse like this." Unknowingly, Ouyang Lingfeng's eyes had turned red.

"Three years ago, Shihan suddenly fell asleep and did not wake up. No matter how hard I tried, I could not find the reason. I also could not wake her up until Ghost Doctor appeared. However, Ghost Doctor only temporarily suppressed the poison. The condition that Ghost Doctor agreed to treat Shihan was for me to acknowledge him as my master. After Shihan woke up, she had no memory of her sudden coma. Thus, King Yi and I reached an agreement to hide this matter from Shihan. Originally, I thought that Master would be able to find a way to save her in at most a year and a half. Who would have thought that this lie would take three years?"

"In other words, you regretted your marriage back then because you wanted to save Ms Shihan. Why did you hide it from Ms Shihan and make her hate you for three years!" Jiegeng had never thought that this was actually the knot in Shihan's heart that had troubled her for three years.

"Rather than letting her fear when the poison flares up and live through every day, it would be better to let her hate me. This way, at least, she would be able to smile every day even though she is very lively and flexible every day."

Ouyang Lingfeng then turned his head and looked at Jiegeng with a begging gaze, "If you know how to cure this poison, can you tell me?"

"I..." Jiegeng also shook her head in pain. "There is indeed no record of such a method. Furthermore, it is a similar symptom. None." Jiegeng had already tossed and turned in her mind just now, but there was no useful information.

At this moment, only despair was left in Ouyang Lingfeng's eyes. He tugged at the corner of his blanket, "Take good care of Shihan. This matter definitely cannot be discussed with Shihan. I will be leaving first."

Jiegeng nodded her head.

"Mistress." Qin Qing trembled as she knelt in front of the masked man.

"You still dare to come back!" The masked man's voice was so cold that there was no warmth in it.

"Qin Qing does not know where she was wrong..." Before Qin Qing could finish her words, the masked man kicked her away and because of the sudden external force, she was sent flying backwards.

When the subordinates behind saw this, they all knelt down.

Qin Qing struggled to get up and immediately spat out a lot of dark red liquid from her mouth.

"Now do you know where you are wrong!" The masked man was furious.

"Your subordinate is only on a mission. There is nothing wrong with that." Qin Qing supported the pain in her chest with one hand as she replied unyieldingly.

The masked man immediately sent out a palm wind and knocked Qin Qing onto the ground again. Qin Qing, who was lying on the ground, spat out another mouthful of turbid blood.

"Don't think that I don't know what you did that day!" The masked man stared fiercely at Qin Qing. "I emphasized again and again that I absolutely can't hurt Duan Shihan. You actually gave me a death order behind my back!"
