Chapter 72

"Doctor Fang, how should my illness be treated?"

The woman's voice came from behind the gauze curtain again.

A faint and bizarre aura suddenly emanated from within.

It was as if some terrifying flood monster had suddenly opened its eyes, staring fixedly at Fang Yi.

Fang Yi was covered in cold sweat behind his back, his heart surging.

This pulse...

Not human!

The City Lord's Wife is not human!

The Hundred Herbs Heart Scripture records twenty-four kinds of bizarre pulses; as long as any one of them appears, it means the other party is absolutely not human, but a terrifying mist creature.

The pulse of this City Lord's Wife happened to match one of those twenty-four kinds of bizarre pulses.

White Zombie!

The City Lord's Wife is a White Zombie transformed!

For a time, it was as if Fang Yi had discovered some great secret.

Countless thoughts instantly appeared in his mind.

No wonder Shen Huairen had that expression just now.

He must have discovered that the City Lord's Wife's pulse was wrong, but didn't dare to say it, so he pretended not to know, but didn't expect that the pink-dressed maid would invite him over too.

That's why Shen Huairen was exceptionally nervous after seeing him.

"Divine Doctor Fang, how is it? Can my fetus still be saved?"

The woman asked again, her voice filled with a bizarre temptation, like a heavenly demon enticing people in their ears, and also like a bizarre creature staring fixedly at Fang Yi.

"It should just be that some fetal qi was hurt. I will write a prescription for you; you follow the prescription to get the medicine, take it for a few days first to see, and if it's ineffective, come find me again."

Fang Yi remained calm, stood up again, walked to the side, picked up a pen and paper, and began to write.

A moment later.

A prescription was written by him.

"Take it and let me see."

The City Lord's Wife spoke.

Xiaoyuan on the side immediately picked up the prescription and handed it to the City Lord's Wife.

The City Lord's Wife withdrew her palm inside the gauze curtain and said softly: "It seems they are all some medicines to protect the fetus?"

"Yes, the wife has her own heaven-sent luck, so nothing should happen."

Fang Yi responded.

"Xiaoyuan, go get the medicine; I'll try taking it for a few days first."

The City Lord's Wife said calmly: "As for Divine Doctor Fang and Divine Doctor Shen, you should stay in the mansion for a few days, so that you can see me at any time. In case my stomach hurts more intensely, you can come over in time, right?"

"Wife, in Hundred Herbs Hall..."

"Don't worry, aren't there other doctors in the hall? Nothing will go wrong!"

The City Lord's Wife said calmly, "Or are you saying you don't believe me? Think I will do something to you?"

"Don't dare."

Fang Yi responded hurriedly.

Is she testing him?

She suspects that he already knows she is not human...

"Don't dare is fine. Xiaoyuan, take them down and let them live in our side courtyard."

The City Lord's Wife said calmly.

"Yes, wife."

The pink-dressed maid responded, looked at Fang Yi, and said: "Doctor Fang, please."

Fang Yi felt heavy in his heart, nodded slowly, and exited this place.

Before long, he saw Shen Huairen again; the pink-dressed maid called Shen Huairen too and walked directly toward a courtyard next door.

"Two doctors, you stay here for the time being; there are two rooms inside, you can have one each."

The pink-dressed maid gave an instruction and turned to leave.

Shen Huairen sighed, looked at Fang Yi, and smiled bitterly: "Why did you come?"

"They said you needed an assistant, so they asked me to come and help you."

Fang Yi shook his head, his mind already beginning to ponder a retreat.

This City Lord's Wife probably wouldn't let them go easily.

She would definitely kill them to silence them.

The reason she didn't make a move now was nothing more than that her illness hadn't been cured yet, and she still had to rely on them.

"You..."

Shen Huairen's expression was complex, and he said in a low voice: "You just took the City Lord's Wife's pulse; did you discover anything abnormal?"

"No, everything is normal."

Fang Yi shook his head.

"Normal?"

Shen Huairen's expression changed slightly.

How could it be normal?

The Hundred Herbs Heart Scripture had already clearly written that that kind of pulse was definitely not human!

Just as he was about to speak again, he discovered that Fang Yi was signaling with his eyes, blinking frequently.

Shen Huairen understood instantly and said: "Yes, it is normal, but how should this medicine be prescribed?"

"I prescribed some medicine to protect the fetus; take it for seven days first, maybe it will improve."

Fang Yi responded.

"That's fine, let's just stay here for seven days first."

Shen Huairen sighed lightly.

In the area behind them, at the hidden corner of the courtyard wall, a pair of eerie eyes were looking at them coldly, having already heard all their voices.

"Shopkeeper, it's getting late, let's rest first."

Fang Yi said.

"Good."

Shen Huairen nodded lightly and walked toward the room on the left.

Fang Yi entered the room on the right.

It wasn't until he completely closed the door that the bizarre gaze disappeared again.

His expression was gloomy, and he slowly exhaled a breath from his mouth.

White Zombie...

The legendary creature actually exists...

"The City Lord's Wife is a monster, is the City Lord Fan Dongyang a monster..."

Fang Yi's heart surged, and he began to walk around in the room.

He felt as if he were placed on a fire rack.

"Forget it, since I can't leave in a short time, I will practice here and practice the few cultivation techniques I have to perfection first. Once the cultivation techniques are perfected, my strength will definitely continue to increase."

Fang Yi thought to himself.

Especially the Earth Fiend Body Tempering Technique, this cultivation technique is broad and profound, and can draw essence from the earth veins to fill oneself, making oneself burst out with several times the strength.

Once practiced to perfection, it is definitely a trump card.

And to be on the safe side, his six portions of spirit substances were always carried on his body.

Now they can be used at any time.

"What I can do now is to delay time; I must never cure the other party's illness all at once. The longer the time is delayed, the more favorable it is for me."

Fang Yi unfolded his stance and began to practice in the room.

Time passed day by day.

The City Lord's Wife was indeed taking medicine according to the prescription.

However, her illness was in a state of being sometimes good and sometimes bad; sometimes the medicine liquid was drunk and the effect was obvious, but sometimes she would have severe abdominal pain again.

Before he knew it, more than half a month had passed.

During this period, Fang Yi and Doctor Shen changed several prescriptions for her.

Originally, Fang Yi wanted to continue delaying, but after more than half a month, the City Lord's Wife saw that her own condition didn't improve, and she became increasingly irritable. Fang Yi felt a rich murderous intent from her more than once, which made him decide to prescribe some useful prescriptions for her.

After getting the new prescription, the City Lord's Wife's illness was indeed greatly suppressed.

But not long after she improved, the murderous intent in the City Lord's Wife's heart appeared again.

And the reason why Fang Yi changed to a useful prescription for her was also because of Fang Yi's strength.

For more than half a month, his strength had changed with each passing day, growing quietly every day.

The six portions of spirit substances on his body were finally all used up.

He reached the peak of the Copper Bone Realm in one fell swoop.
