Elder Yu saw that Yaowang's body was covered with lightning rods, and he was a little surprised. But he was here to cure his illness, and he couldn't ask too much about this mysterious phenomenon. After all, masters always did things that people couldn't understand. Perhaps this was Yaowang's way of training.
Yaowang and Zhao Qibing were a match made in heaven. Both of them had evil hearts. In fact, Yaowang knew that Elder Yu was poisoned the moment he felt his pulse.
This poison was strong, but it wasn't a problem for Yaowang.
Lin Yi could easily deal with this poison, so Yaowang didn't feel any pressure. In terms of medical skills, Yaowang wasn't any weaker than Lin Yi. The difference was that one was researching on saving people, and the other was researching on harming people and making money.
"Hmm … This poison is very strong! It's a thousand-year-old poison! " Yaowang let go of Elder Yu's wrist, his brows furrowed. "This poison, it's not a normal poison, it's a poison that's been lost for a long time, I've only seen it in some ancient texts … Now, your pulse matches the poison mentioned in the ancient texts!"
"Then … What should I do?" Elder Yu jumped in fright. He'd heard of Yaowang's name before. To be able to become one of the head doctors of the hidden house Zhao, he definitely wasn't a simple character. If he said that this poison was very strong, then wouldn't it mean that he could die easily?
Thinking about this, Elder Yu was extremely depressed. He went to the tomb and almost lost his life, but the hidden house Yu treated him coldly. It really pissed him off!
"It's not that there's no way. Coincidentally, when I saw this thousand-year-old poison, I also saw the antidote. Elder Yu, you're lucky to have met me. If it were someone else, you'd just be waiting for death!" Yaowang came from a hidden house, and he had quite a high position in the hidden house Zhao, so he didn't have to be too polite when talking to Elder Yu.
"Ah! Yaowang, please save me! This old man will reward you handsomely! "Elder Yu's face turned red upon hearing that there was hope. He quickly cupped his fists and begged.
"Of course, of course … You don't have to thank me. You're from House Yu, and I'm from House Zhao. Our families are in-laws, so of course I won't refuse!" Yaowang said righteously.
"If that's the case, thank you!" Elder Yu quickly said.
"However …" The Medicine King changed the topic and said, "This poison is extremely overbearing. The medicinal ingredients for the antidote are naturally very precious. There are thousand-year-old knotweed, ten-thousand-year-old snow lotus, three-thousand-year-old ginseng, and other precious medicinal ingredients. The cost of these medicinal ingredients …"
"Don't worry, this old man will bear the cost. How could I let the King of Medicine spend so much money? I can't thank you enough for helping me detoxify the poison, how can I let you pay for it? "Elder Yu quickly said," How much does it cost? "
"Not much, just one billion!" Yaowang nodded and said.
"How much?" Elder Yu paused, not hearing clearly.
"One billion!" Yaowang repeated.
"Gah!" Elder Yu froze, his mouth wide open, speechless. One billion? What kind of cosmic joke was this? One billion to detoxify a poison? Even if the antidote was made of diamonds, it wouldn't be worth that much!
Yaowang's words shocked even Zhao Qibing. One billion! Yaowang really dared to ask for that much! From what Zhao Qibing saw, three or two hundred million was the most he could ask for, but Yaowang was asking for so much!
But Zhao Qibing liked it!
"Young master Zhao, isn't the treatment fee a little too expensive?" Elder Yu finally came back to his senses and said to Zhao Qibing.
"Elder Yu, you're wrong!" Zhao Qibing waved his hand, "Elder Yu, think about it, these are all precious herbs, we don't have much in stock, we're mainly keeping them for grandpa and the masters of the house. Now that we're using so much to detoxify the poison for you, if someone in the house needs to break through, we won't be able to find them! Grandpa is about to break through Earth class to Sky class … You know how much we've sacrificed for House Yu! "
Zhao Qibing's words infuriated Elder Yu. Even if all these treasures were real, it didn't cost one billion! Did he think he was an idiot? It wasn't like House Yu didn't have any treasures. Although they didn't have the knotweed or the ten thousand year snow lotus, they did have treasures that were worse than this. He didn't believe that House Zhao had so many treasures!
But, even if he doubted it, he couldn't do anything about it. Elder Yu's life was in their hands, he couldn't turn against House Yu.
"Young master Zhao, this treatment fee is an astronomical figure to me, I don't have much money, do you think … Can you reduce it a little?" Elder Yu suppressed his anger and asked. He had to ask, if he really wanted to leave, he could only go back to the hotel and wait for his death.
"Of course!" Zhao Qibing waved his hand, "Elder Yu, I'll tell you the truth, it's because you're here, if it were someone else, we wouldn't be willing to sell these treasures for one billion!"
"I …" Elder Yu almost cursed. You scammed me of my money, and I have to remember your kindness? But he didn't dare, "I really don't have much money!"
Elder Yu knew the hidden House Yu's wealth like the back of his hand. Most of the hidden House Yu's money was earned by the common House Yu, how could he not know? But, how could the hidden House Yu give him money to detoxify the poison? That phone call from before had completely disappointed Elder Yu in the hidden House Yu. His heart was cold and his heart was cold!
From his point of view, he was just a dog of the hidden House Yu, his life and death had nothing to do with the hidden House Yu! So, Elder Yu didn't even think about calling the hidden House Yu for money.
As for the common House Yu, Elder Yu believed that although Yu Shuixing would definitely give him money if he asked for it, but Elder Yu knew how much the common House Yu's wealth was! Although the common House Yu was rich, most of the money was earned by the hidden House Yu. All these years, the common House Yu had earned a total of one billion!
If he used this money to detoxify the poison, what would happen to the common House Yu? Wouldn't they be on the path of decline? Elder Yu couldn't do something like this!
