Xu Jun had already suspected that Lu Ming's treatment method was problematic. Xu Zhijian was already frozen to such an extent, and he still wanted to lower the temperature. Wasn't this trying to freeze Xu Zhijian to death?
Fortunately, Qin Tong arrived in time and exposed Lu Ming's true colors, thus preventing Xu Jun from making a grave mistake.
Xu Jun waved his hand, telling the butler to drive Lu Ming away.
The butler walked over, making a gesture as if to chase Lu Ming away, and even prepared to call security.
Lu Ming sighed and walked out of the room directly.
Before leaving, he turned back one last time and left a message: "Based on my conscience as a human being, I must still advise you that Mayor Xu's heat and cold illness has already invaded his heart and spleen, and he will not live for more than three days. Also, that thousand-year-old ginseng is a very hot and nourishing item, and it absolutely cannot be given to Mayor Xu. Eating such a hot item will only worsen his condition, and he might not even live for three hours."
"Shut up!" Xu Jun cursed, "You charlatan, how dare you blabber on here? If it weren't for Old Master Yang's sake, I would have sent you straight to the police. Now get lost!"
Lu Ming shook his head slightly and said, "Good intentions cannot save a damned soul."
After Lu Ming left.
Xu Jun looked at Yang Jitong with reproach and said, "Old Master Yang, please use your brain next time you introduce doctors! Lu Ming is so young, how capable can his medical skills be? If Deputy General Qin hadn't arrived in time this time, I would have become a sinner for all eternity by causing my father's death!"
Yang Jitong said nothing, only sighed.
In fact, he was also a bit confused now.
Logically speaking, Lu Ming's medical skills were indeed very impressive. When he treated Jiang Lan last time, the Miao ethnic group's蛊术 and the exquisite Azure Dragon Acupoint Needling Technique could not be faked.
But Lu Ming indeed had no medical background, and his treatment methods today were also very strange.
It was no wonder that others did not believe him.
Yang Jitong felt bitter. He had kindly recommended Lu Ming, but not only did he get no credit, he was also blamed by Xu Jun. It seemed he would gradually drift away from the Mayor's family in the future.
It was also unlucky. If he had known earlier, he wouldn't have gotten involved in this matter.
At this moment, Qin Tong pointed at the ginseng and said, "This thousand-year-old ginseng has an incredibly magical effect. No matter how severe the cold body disease is, it can be cured with medicine. Young Master Xu, don't hesitate any longer. Quickly have someone process this ginseng and let Mayor Xu drink it for an early recovery."
"Yes, yes, yes, Deputy General Qin is right." Xu Jun handed the ginseng to the butler, "Do as Deputy General Qin says."
In a short while, the ginseng was processed.
The butler carried a bowl of steaming ginseng soup into the room, "Young Master, the soup is here."
Xu Jun, holding the soup, sat by the sickbed, "Dad, this is the ginseng General Murong sent. Please drink it. After drinking this bowl of soup, all your illnesses will be cured."
Xu Zhijian gasped for breath and weakly opened his mouth.
Xu Jun carefully fed Xu Zhijian the entire bowl of ginseng soup one spoonful at a time. He thought that after drinking a bowl of the medicinal soup, Xu Zhijian's condition would definitely improve a bit.
Unexpectedly!
Xu Zhijian suddenly trembled all over and vomited a large mouthful of fresh blood.
"Cold, so cold."
Xu Zhijian became even colder, spitting blood, convulsing, and suffering from a severe heat toxicity syndrome. Judging by this appearance, he was likely to die within a short period of time.
"How could this be?" Xu Jun was dumbfounded.
Yang Jitong quickly came over to check. After examination, he said in horror, "The Mayor's internal heat is surging, and his blood is churning. I'm afraid he won't last much longer."
Heat?
Xu Jun looked at the ginseng soup in his hand and was completely stunned.
Could it be that feeding him a bowl of ginseng soup caused this result?
But... Xu Zhijian was still shivering and constantly shouting that he was cold. What was going on?
Xu Jun was completely at a loss.
For a while, he summoned all the doctors he could find. They all examined the condition and came to the same conclusion: the Mayor would not live for more than three hours.
Xu Jun was stunned.
Three hours? Wasn't this exactly the advice Lu Ming gave before he left?
Just now, Xu Jun had severely scolded Lu Ming and completely disbelieved his words, but now things were developing exactly as Lu Ming had said, as if it were a script arranged by Lu Ming.
He had to believe it even if he didn't want to.
Yang Jitong said, "Young Master Xu, it seems that what Lu Ming said before was all true, and you wronged him. If there is anyone who has the ability to save Mayor Xu, it can only be Lu Ming! Hurry and invite him back. If you delay any longer, the Mayor's life will be lost."
"Yes, yes, yes." Xu Jun finally came to his senses, "I'll go invite Doctor Lu right now!"
He threw away the bowl and rushed out the door.
Qin Tong wanted to stop him, but looking at the current situation, she had to take some responsibility no matter what, so she didn't have the face to stop Xu Jun.
However, she still said disdainfully, "The Mayor's illness might be caused by various reasons. How can it be exactly as Lu Ming said? And Doctor Lu, he's just trash who watches graves. If he comes back later and still can't cure the Mayor, the blame can be entirely put on him. He'll have hell to pay!"
...
At this moment, Lu Ming was sitting on a bench by the roadside, holding paper and a pen, writing something.
Xu Jun immediately saw Lu Ming and hurried over. Just as he was about to speak, he was stopped by Lu Ming.
Lu Ming said without looking up, "No need to say anything, I know everything. Mayor's condition has worsened, with internal heat surging and blood churning, but the surface is still cold, and he keeps shouting that he's cold, right?"
Xu Jun nodded repeatedly, "Doctor Lu wasn't at the scene, yet he guessed it perfectly. Truly a divine being! Please, Divine Doctor Lu, disregard my past transgressions and save my father. I beg you."
Lu Ming smiled, "If I still held a grudge against you, I would have taken a taxi and left, why would I be sitting here waiting for you?"
After speaking.
He stopped writing and handed the paper to Xu Jun, instructing, "Go and get the medicine according to the prescription I wrote."
"Alright!"
Xu Jun handed the prescription to the butler, who then went to get the medicine. He then took Lu Ming back to the ward.
Looking at Xu Zhijian who was still spitting blood, Xu Jun felt as if his heart was being twisted.
He said with a choked voice, "Divine Doctor Lu, please save my father quickly."
Lu Ming said nothing more, immediately pulled off the thick quilt covering Xu Zhijian, unplugged the electric blanket, then pointed to the air conditioner and said, "Turn on the cooling, 15 degrees."
Xu Jun complied.
After a while, the temperature in the room dropped, even reaching a 'cold' level.
However, to everyone's surprise, Xu Zhijian, who had been constantly feeling cold, did not freeze to death in such a low temperature. Instead, he slowly calmed down.
He stopped spitting blood, and his body stopped convulsing.
However, the heat toxins in Xu Zhijian's body slowly dissipated, rising from the inside to the surface.
In a short while, Xu Zhijian's body surface became burning hot.
Lu Ming asked for a set of silver needles and said, "Step back, I'm going to start needling."
