Chapter 96

Water Yunyao was instructed to put away the two boxes of items, and Wei Changfeng left the room with the chief great poison master Bai Haoran.

He was not worried about the safety of the lingzhi and the spirit pearl, because this was the most important place in the White Deer Miao Village. If a servant were to run away with the valuables, the first to be disgraced would be this powerful Miao descendant tribe!

Therefore, the character of the two servants did not need to be doubted.

As for the reason why Bai Haoran had come to him, Wei Changfeng was very clear—it was about the illness of the chieftain's daughter!

Yesterday, Dugu Shen had kept him in the White Deer Village under the pretext that Wei Changfeng was skilled in medicine. However, during the negotiations with Bai Qi, the chieftain had mentioned that he had already invited the great alchemist Li Zongyang to treat her.

Could it be that even this grandmaster of the Great Qin Alchemy Academy couldn't solve it?

With a hint of doubt, Wei Changfeng followed Bai Haoran to the top floor of the White Deer Pavilion.

The White Deer Pavilion had a total of seven floors. The third floor was used for receiving distinguished guests, with a grand hall and dining room. The fourth and fifth floors were guest rooms, the sixth floor was the residence of the tribal elders, and the seventh floor was exclusively occupied by the chieftain's family.

As for the first and second floors, they were the dormitories for the servants and guards.

This not-so-secret secret was told to Wei Changfeng by Water Yunyao, so when they reached the top floor, he knew his guess was correct.

However, the top floor of the White Deer Pavilion was not as luxurious and extravagant as Wei Changfeng had imagined. Instead, the interior decoration was simple and elegant, with no lavish furniture, but many exquisite potted plants and flowers.

Walking down the corridor felt like walking through a green field, giving a very fresh feeling.

Under Bai Haoran's lead, Wei Changfeng finally arrived at a room at the end of the corridor.

The room was not very large, with a thick wool carpet on the floor. The walls were adorned with many beautiful decorations, all in styles that young girls favored, clearly indicating it was a boudoir.

However, the bedroom, which should have been off-limits to outsiders, was crowded with people, and the air was filled with a strong medicinal scent.

A girl in a white dress lay quietly on the bed, her delicate body half-covered by a brocade quilt, her eyes tightly closed, and her face as pale as paper. Her black hair was scattered on the stacked pillows.

A middle-aged man with a stern expression sat by the bed, taking the girl's pulse. Behind him stood a handsome ten-year-old boy and a pretty girl, both of whom were not ordinary people by their attire and demeanor.

In addition to them, Bai Qi was also in the room, the chieftain of the White Deer tribe, his face full of worry, tightly holding the hands of a woman in a blue dress beside him.

The woman, who looked to be in her forties, still had a lingering charm, with obvious tear marks on her face.

Due to the limited space in the room and everyone's attention focused on the girl in the white dress, Bai Haoran and Wei Changfeng did not rush in but quietly stood at the door.

After a moment, the middle-aged man released his hand and, under Bai Qi's expectant gaze, said solemnly, "Chieftain Bai, the aura within your daughter is extremely strange, entangled in her internal organs and cannot be cleared. It seems that after a cultivation mishap, she did not receive timely treatment, leading to a worsening condition!"

He sighed, "I thought the Deer Fetus Blood Marrow Pill could control it, but I didn't expect..."

The woman in the blue dress asked in a trembling voice, "Grandmaster Li, is there really no way?"

This middle-aged man was clearly Li Zongyang, a grandmaster of the Great Qin Alchemy Academy, a renowned great alchemist!

The middle-aged man pondered and said, "Give me a little more time to think carefully!"

The woman in the blue dress sobbed, "But Ke'er..."

Bai Qi pulled her hand and interrupted, "Then I will leave it to you, Grandmaster!"

Li Zongyang nodded and stood up, his face not looking good.

Bai Haoran, standing at the door, took the opportunity to cough a couple of times.

Everyone turned to look, and Bai Qi got up and said, "Grandmaster Li, let me see you out."

Li Zongyang said, "Chieftain Bai, you don't need to see me out. We can go down ourselves!"

With that, he prepared to leave with the two young people.

Unexpectedly, at this moment, the woman in the blue dress saw Bai Haoran and Wei Changfeng at the door, her eyes brightening as she blurted out, "Brother, you brought the alchemist?"

Her words caused everyone to be stunned.

Bai Qi almost spat out a mouthful of blood, Bai Haoran looked awkward and didn't know how to respond, Li Zongyang and the three others stopped in their tracks, and Wei Changfeng was at a loss whether to laugh or cry.

Wei Changfeng had been invited by Bai Haoran to treat the illness, not because of confidence in his medical skills, but because in the situation where Li Zongyang was at a loss, they were trying to treat a dead horse as if it were alive.

It's like when someone is drowning, any straw they can grab is good, regardless of other considerations.

But with Li Zongyang still there, the woman in the blue dress directly exposing the situation was like slapping the great alchemist in the face.

She must have been out of her mind!

This made the atmosphere in the room very awkward.

Li Zongyang's expression was very uncomfortable and a bit angry. He looked at Bai Haoran and asked, "I wonder which alchemist Elder Bai has invited. I would like to learn from him!"

As a grandmaster of the Great Qin Alchemy Academy, Li Zongyang was very proud of his medical skills. He did not believe that anyone in the White Deer Village could treat what he couldn't.

Although it was understandable for the Bai family to seek another alchemist, he, Grandmaster Li, also had his pride!

Bai Haoran, as the chief great poison master of the White Deer tribe, was usually a shrewd and experienced person, but in this situation, he didn't know how to explain and secretly regretted bringing Wei Changfeng up too early.

He was also angry at the woman in the blue dress for speaking out of turn. She was his sister, Bai Qi's wife, Bai Fenghuang!

Helpless, Bai Haoran could only say, "Grandmaster Li..."

"Grandmaster Li, it was me who asked my brother to invite someone..."

Bai Qi got up to defuse the situation and introduced, "Let me introduce you. This is Wei Changfeng, a senior disciple of the Jingyun Martial Academy, a young talent recommended by the academy's grandmaster Dugu Shen, with outstanding medical skills!"

Since things had come to this point, there was no need to hide it anymore, otherwise, it would only lead to greater misunderstandings and make the situation worse.

"Senior disciple of the Jingyun Martial Academy?"

Li Zongyang noticed Wei Changfeng for the first time, his expression strange: "Not from the Alchemy Academy?"

Earlier, he had completely ignored Wei Changfeng, thinking he was just Bai Haoran's attendant, never imagining that this was the alchemist Bai Qi had invited, finding it very absurd!

"Is this a joke?"

The young man following Li Zongyang immediately sneered, "A kid who hasn't even grown his hair, what skills does he have to treat people?"

His voice was very low, but everyone in the room could hear it clearly!

This young man was a junior disciple of Li Zongyang. Seeing his master being "insulted" like this, he was very uncomfortable and looked at Wei Changfeng with a hostile gaze.

Wei Changfeng had no intention of competing with Li Zongyang, but that didn't mean he would accept the ridicule and humiliation.

His eyebrows furrowed, and he said coldly, "Whether I have the skills or not is not up to you to decide!"

Without looking at the other's expression, Wei Changfeng walked straight to the bed, sat down in the place where Li Zongyang had been, and gently placed his index and middle fingers on the girl's wrist.

The touch of her skin was indescribably smooth and delicate, but abnormally cold, as if he were touching a thousand-year-old ice block!

If it were an ordinary person, such a condition would have frozen them to death, and even a god could not save them.

However, the girl looked very ill, but her chest still rose and fell, indicating she was still breathing, just unconscious.

Wei Changfeng calmed his mind and injected a thread of Tai Xu Dan Qi.

While Wei Changfeng was diagnosing the girl, Li Zongyang did not leave the room but stood with his disciples, a cold smile on his face, his eyes full of disdain.

He wanted to see what trick Wei Changfeng was playing, to have fooled the chieftain and the great poison master of the White Deer tribe!

Bai Qi and Bai Haoran exchanged glances, both showing a bitter smile.

They didn't expect things to turn out this way, but they were already in a difficult position and could only let Wei Changfeng do his best.

In their hearts, neither of them believed that Wei Changfeng's medical skills would surpass Li Zongyang, and they were thinking about how to smooth things over to calm Li Zongyang's anger.

Bai Qi's wife, Bai Fenghuang, was torn between hope and despair. She knew she had spoken out of turn, but it was out of concern for her daughter. She never imagined that the "miracle doctor" Bai Haoran had invited was a fifteen or sixteen-year-old boy!

On one hand, she felt very disappointed and helpless, but on the other, she hoped for a miracle, so she watched Wei Changfeng's every move with a conflicted heart!

Wei Changfeng didn't care about others' thoughts; he was fully focused on examining the girl's condition.

The Supreme Nine Heavens Yang Heart Sutra was the supreme alchemy technique, and the Tai Xu Dan Qi it condensed was not only useful for refining pills but also excellent for diagnosing and treating illnesses.

In just a moment, Wei Changfeng had a basic understanding of the patient's condition.

He released his hand and asked, "Madam, how long has Miss Bai been unconscious?"

Bai Fenghuang answered without hesitation, "Seven days!"

Wei Changfeng nodded.

The disciple of Li Zongyang sneered, "Great Doctor Wei, have you diagnosed the illness yet?"

Wei Changfeng ignored him and continued, "Has she been lying in this room the whole time?"

Bai Fenghuang's eyes were red, "Yes!"

The disciple of Li Zongyang sneered, "If Miss Bai were unconscious, would they move her outside? Ridiculous!"

No matter how good Wei Changfeng's temperament was, having a crow cawing in his ear was very annoying.

He took out a cloth bag from his pocket, drew out three golden needles, and with lightning speed, inserted them into the girl's face!

Simultaneously hitting the Shenting, Jingming, and Yangshi acupoints!
