Chapter 555: Two Treatment Plans

Zhang Jie made no comment on the matter between Xu Xiang and Feng Baobao.

Outsiders might think Xu Xiang was worked to death, but perhaps Xu Xiang enjoyed it?

To use Mencius's words, "You are not a fish, how do you know the joy of a fish?"

For Xu Xiang, there was nothing more important in the world than protecting Feng Baobao.

"I'll go bring that old wild ginseng!"

Xu Si shook his head, put away his thoughts, and was about to do it in a rush.

"Go fast and return fast."

Xu San gave an instruction.

"Hmm."

Xu Si nodded.

"Ah Jie, Chulan, sit down and rest for a while."

Xu San invited Zhang Jie and the others to sit down and poured tea for them.

"Thank you, San-ge."

Zhang Jie thanked him and took the tea generously.

"Ah Jie, how are your parents?"

Xu Xiang's spirit had recovered a bit, and he was in the mood to talk.

"They are both fine..."

During this time, Zhang Jie's cheap parents in this life had gone on a business trip,

and had not met with their old leader Xu Xiang, but as a son, Zhang Jie naturally kept in touch with them.

"I brought the stuff!"

Time passed in the casual chat between Zhang Jie and Xu Xiang,

and Xu Si's speed was very fast; in less than an hour, he had made a round trip from the hospital to home.

"Ah Jie, it's up to you."

A slightly panting Xu Si handed a small box made of sandalwood to Zhang Jie.

It seemed that this not-so-close distance had not caused him any trouble.

Zhang Jie took the box and opened it, only to see a wild ginseng lying quietly in the box padded with yellow silk.

Its body was spindle-shaped, with two branch roots forking out from the bottom, looking very much like two human legs.

Many thin and long ginseng whiskers spread out from the two branch roots.

The grayish-yellow body had dense horizontal lines, deep and dense, showing that this ginseng was of a great age.

At the fork of the two roots, there was an obvious cut—this ginseng previously had three branch roots;

it should have been the mark left by Xu San and the others when they used it to test the efficacy of this ginseng, only to find it ineffective.

"I thought this ginseng would grow into the shape of a person."

Zhang Chulan, who leaned over to look, was a bit disappointed.

"To grow into the legendary ginseng doll, I'm afraid it would take a thousand-year-old immortal ginseng to do that.

This ginseng is not young, but it is only a few hundred years old, far from reaching the point of transforming into a human shape."

Xu Xiang explained with a smile.

Human-shaped ginseng, even throughout history, is a rare thing that is rarely seen,

appearing only in the legends of several immortals who ate immortal pills and strange herbs and ascended.

In the current environment, such ginseng is probably already extinct.

And even if there were, such a divine object could not possibly fall into his hands.

Zhang Jie ignored Zhang Chulan and the others' conversation, just picked up the ginseng, and checked it carefully with internal Qi.

Rays of golden light, transparent like glaze, shone through it, incomparably miraculous.

After a while, Zhang Jie put it down.

"Ah Jie, how is it?"

Xu San and Xu Si asked urgently.

Even Xu Xiang listened carefully to Zhang Jie's answer.

Although he had already let go, if he could live a little longer, who would refuse?

If he could live a little longer, he could accompany A-Wu for a little longer...

"It's possible."

Zhang Jie nodded slowly.

This ginseng lived up to its name as a precious medicine; it contained a lot of vitality,

and if it could be refined, helping Xu Xiang extend his life for a period of time would not be a problem.

"Good!"

The big stone in Xu San and Xu Si's hearts finally fell to the ground.

"However, now is the time to choose a treatment plan."

Zhang Jie continued.

"What treatment plan?"

Feng Baobao became naturally dull again.

"The two plans Jie-ge mentioned when he first brought up the precious medicine."

Zhang Chulan reminded her in a low voice.

"Oh."

Feng Baobao said "oh" in a cute and dull way.

"Ah Jie, what are the two treatment plans?"

Xu San and Xu Si looked at each other, and finally, the steady Xu San spoke.

"The first is to use all the medicinal power to maintain life,

and combined with various modern medical equipment, it should allow Xu-shu to live for about another half a year."

Zhang Jie played with the ginseng and explained.

"Ah Jie, is this kind similar to what I had before?"

Xu Xiang asked.

"Yes."

Zhang Jie nodded: "Although this plan can maximize the extension of life, it is lacking in other aspects."

"I choose the second one!"

Xu Xiang said decisively.

"Father!"

Xu San and Xu Si still wanted to say something.

"Hmm?"

Xu Xiang just used one look to make their words of persuasion swallow back into their stomachs.

"I knew Xu-shu, you wouldn't choose the first plan."

Zhang Jie smiled slightly and continued:

"The second is to transform a portion of the medicinal power used to maintain life into vitality,

to support Xu-shu's free movement; but in this way, the time might be reduced by about half."

A smile appeared on Xu Xiang's face: "This plan is good!"

He had long since not wanted to stay in this room full of medical equipment and the smell of disinfectant.

"Good, I will start the treatment for you, Xu-shu."

Zhang Jie turned his hand, and a richer golden light surged from his hand, wrapping the whole ginseng.

"Ah, my 24K titanium alloy dog eyes!"

Zhang Chulan, who opened his eyes wide wanting to steal the technique, felt as if a flashbang had exploded in front of him.

Zhang Jie ignored Zhang Chulan's clownish behavior,

sat cross-legged, and concentrated all his attention on the ball of light in his hand.

Under his incomparable power, the vitality contained in the ginseng was extracted, stirred, and became agile.

"Breathe!"

Zhang Chulan took a deep breath, feeling refreshed,

as if he were not in the concrete jungle built of reinforced concrete,

but in a vibrant forest oxygen bar full of birds and flowers.

"So comfortable."

Feng Baobao, who had a heart of innocence and was naive, was completely intoxicated by it.

Finally, what remained in Zhang Jie's hand was a ball of light exuding rich vitality.

The ginseng had withered and decayed, turning into powder and falling from the gaps in Zhang Jie's palms.

"Gulp."

Xu San and Xu Si swallowed a mouthful of saliva at the same time.

Their intuition told them that if they could swallow the green ball of light in Zhang Jie's hand,

they would gain great benefits, and even taking their abilities a step further would just be a piece of cake.

However, their feelings for their father, Xu Xiang, urged them to suppress this greed.

"Xu-shu, I'm starting."

Zhang Jie came to Xu Xiang's side and placed the ball of light on his Baihui acupoint.

"Ah Jie, go ahead and do it!" Xu Xiang smiled freely.

Zhang Jie's palm pressed down slightly, and the ball of light became invisible, gradually sinking into Xu Xiang's body from his Baihui acupoint. ===== CHAPTER 556 =====
