Chapter 1651
Second Master was stunned for a moment; he found it hard to believe his father's illness was not due to the oil being exhausted and the wick burnt out, but because of a Shou Bing error.
The two remained silent for a long time, each with their own thoughts.
"Brother, Song En just vomited blood." Second Master said softly.
"In front of me, to take Zheng Lao Ban's person, this is not taking our Wang Family seriously." Eldest Master Wang said firmly: "Gu poison, so what? This matter won't end so easily."
"Song En probably won't live much longer; my people say his natal Gu worm died." Second Master smiled slightly, as if seeing the moment his natal Gu worm died, Song En spat out a mouthful of heart's hot blood.
"Huh? How did the natal Gu worm die?" Eldest Master froze.
A Gu master's natal Gu worm is exactly as the words imply—it is their life.
Unless absolutely necessary, they will never use their natal Gu worm. But once used, it becomes a situation of endless immortality.
Its power is enormous, killing invisibly—these are the benefits of the natal Gu worm. But the downside is that if someone catches and kills it, the Gu master at least suffers a severe vital injury.
Song En… thinking of him, Eldest Master Wang thought of that tiger-like man, who with a casual blow beat Song En half to death.
That doesn't matter; what matters is that Zheng Lao Ban, who looks refined and cultured, acts like a seasoned killer, treating human life as nothing, grabbing Song En's hair and slamming it against the bulletproof glass of the ward.
The thumping sound still echoes in my mind to this day.
Only a military doctor who has come down from the battlefield, having endured countless life-and-death situations, possesses that special temperament. Ordinary doctors only save lives; they would never kill.
What a Strange person, Eldest Master Wang thought, recalling all the information he had about Zheng Lao Ban.
But his train of thought was interrupted by Second Master's remark.
"His natal Gu worm was killed by Zheng Lao Ban."
"..." Eldest Master Wang turned pale with shock.
Only another Gu master can kill a Gu worm! That's common knowledge.
Zheng Lao Ban is actually a Gu master?
Just thinking of that, Eldest Master Wang recalled shaking hands with him—his palm felt numb and itchy, as if countless worms were crawling inside his body.
"How was it killed?" his voice hoarse, slightly trembling.
He immediately recalled the flames burning in the meeting room just now; Zheng Lao Ban seemed to ask whether he could smell it.
The Wang Family doesn't fear Gu masters because nowadays people kill with guns. As long as they don't get close to a Gu master, even the most powerful Gu worm can't kill someone.
A sniper, under certain conditions, can wipe out a sect that has been passed down for a thousand years.
But Zheng Lao Ban…… a doctor from the health department, how could he be a Gu master?!
His mind instantly raced through countless possibilities, even including that this was someone deliberately sent by that side to give him a Gu, to control him.
"The monitor shows it was done with a surgical Shou Bing method. It's simple, not difficult." Second Master said: "Brother, why does your face look so awful?"
"Where is the surveillance?!" Wang family elder shouted, "Pull it up, find the best doctor at the National Hospital!"
Soon, the surveillance video from the conference room was pulled up, and Wang family elder looked at it with an uncertain expression.
According to the explanation of the doctors at National Hospital, this is a purely surgical method, but they also expressed surprise.
Using a microscope to perform the simplest superficial worm-extraction procedure, no one would have thought such a technique existed.
But they were certain, this is a modern medical method, absolutely not the means of a mysterious gu master. Even one surgeon said with certainty, after watching the operator's procedure, he could do it himself.
So that's how it is, Wang family elder finally relaxed a little.
After the doctors from National Hospital left, he then asked: "Did Song En die?"
"He didn't die, skull fracture but no fatal intracranial bleeding. Wrist fracture but didn't injure the radial Artery. The doctors at National Hospital all say his luck is simply too good, this is a miracle of life!" Second uncle laughed.
"A miracle, a miracle?" Wang family elder muttered coldly.
He knew, that was because Zheng Lao Ban knew how much force to use when he struck.
Although he appeared violent, as if losing reason. Actually his Inner Mind was calm like a cheetah waiting to prey, sitting high at the top of the food chain, overlooking all beings.
"He didn't die; after Zheng Lao Ban leaves, let him die again." Wang family elder said lightly.
"Big brother, this..." Second uncle hesitated.
"If we step back today, Mingday more people will come knocking." Wang family elder waved his hand, stopping Second uncle's words.
"What do you think about Father's Shou Bing?"
"Since Master Yan said that, and Zheng Lao Ban also found the problem in Father's condition, let's do the Shou Bing." Second uncle said, "I believe in Zheng Lao Ban."
"But Father is too old."
"Delaying will also lead to death. Big brother, what do you think?" Second uncle asked.
Wang family elder hesitated somewhat, remaining silent for a while.
His eyes flickered a little, various pros and cons tangled together, for a moment he didn't know what to do.
"Has Doctor Richard already set off?" Second uncle asked.
"Um, he made another call just before boarding, expressing his lack of understanding and anger at Zheng Lao Ban's judgment that the cobalt poisoning was caused by a mistake in hip joint replacement Shou Bing." Wang family elder said.
"Well..." Second uncle looked at the elder, the two sixty- or seventy-year-old old men stared at each other.
"Wait until Doctor Richard comes, then we'll talk. According to the data, Zheng Lao Ban used to be a General Surgery Department doctor, later he engaged in Interventional surgery. Orthopedics Department Shou Bing, he only performed during Earthquake Relief."
"Hip joint replacement, but it's a major Shou Bing."
"Yes, so I think it's better to wait until Doctor Richard comes before speaking." Wang family elder laughed: "Although I also Worry about disputes arising during the Shou Bing, but overall it's more secure."
"That works too."
"As for the others, you go tell them." Wang family elder said.
"And what about you?"
"We still have to keep an eye on them. I just say, don't look for those messy gu masters, but things don't always go as we wish. If we don't look for them, people will gossip behind our backs, saying we two aren't filial."
"Yeah." Second uncle also felt deeply, sighed.
"Go, regarding Doctor Richard, pay attention to the schedule, don't forget to pick him up." Wang family elder arranged.
"Don't worry, brother." Wang family second uncle smiled and said: "Zheng Lao Ban's level is indeed not bad. I only now know that Wang Lu that little girl still has something hidden from me."
Huh?
Doctors at the National Hospital examined me according to what Zheng Lao Ban said, and they diagnosed hyperthyroidism—just take the medicine. I've been wetting the bed for years, yet you never told me. Tell me, in our family of several, we don't know how to do anything; such a big family, yet some of us are worn out.
He said with a smile, as if he had something in mind, yet also as if just making small talk.
