After exchanging a few words with Old Wu, Zheng Ren excused himself and went to the wards to check on the patients.
The diagnosis of the six patients was correct. They were all in good condition and suitable for surgery.
Zheng Ren estimated the surgery time and asked Mu Tao to book a flight back to Imperial Capital tomorrow afternoon. He informed Old Wu and prepared to return to the hotel to rest.
When he arrived downstairs, Zheng Ren saw the twenty-year-old girl surrounded by the people he had met in Old Wu's office. They were waiting at the entrance of the inpatient department.
Zheng Ren pretended not to see them and was about to leave while talking and laughing with Su Yun.
Suddenly, a few shadows appeared in front of him. One of them blocked Zheng Ren's way with his arm.
Su Yun raised his eyebrows and glanced sideways at the man. He said to Zheng Ren, "I've trained. I guess I can only fight one."
Zheng Ren smiled. Su Yun's train of thought was really strange. He wanted to solve everything with a fight. What a hot-blooded teenager.
"Mr. Zheng, right?" The girl came to Zheng Ren's side and asked with a frown, "My name is Zou Yu. Nice to meet you."
"What's the matter?" Zheng Ren asked.
"My father will be here soon. Please take a look at him."
"Me?" Zheng Ren was surprised.
"Dr. Smith from the Mayo Clinic recommended you …" Zou Yu was not sure and paused for a moment.
"Oh, I don't know anyone from the Mayo Clinic." Zheng Ren smiled and said, "I have something to do here. Please excuse me."
Zou Yu looked at Zheng Ren in disbelief. She looked at him in confusion as if she did not hear what he said.
"Are you sure you're talking to me?" Zou Yu looked at Zheng Ren and said proudly.
"Huh? Are you trying to restrict my personal freedom? "Zheng Ren was also a little puzzled and asked.
"You …" Zou Yu's pretty face turned cold. Just as she was about to lose her temper, her assistant nudged her from behind and whispered a few words in her ear.
Zou Yu's expression kept changing. She frowned slightly and looked at Zheng Ren in disbelief.
Zheng Ren did not know what had happened but he really did not want to deal with parasites. Although the System's mission reminder was in quotation marks, the words "Current technology cannot explain" in the mission description reminded Zheng Ren of the complexity of this disease.
Moreover, from a certain perspective, Mr. Zou, whom he had yet to meet, was not his patient. Naturally, Zheng Ren would not go looking for trouble.
"Mr. Zheng, please forgive me for my previous words." Zou Yu's expression was very ugly, but he still spoke patiently.
Her fair neck was slightly flushed. It seemed that when she was angry, her blood pressure would rise, causing her capillaries to fill up.
"It's fine. I'm going back to rest." Zheng Ren smiled and walked around the group of people, leaving with Su Yun and the professor.
Mu Tao said apologetically, "Boss Zheng, I've caused you trouble."
"It has nothing to do with you," Zheng Ren said.
"Sigh." Mu Tao thought about it and still felt that it was troublesome. He started the car and left with Zheng Ren.
"Boss, have you encountered Gu poison before?" Su Yun asked.
"Nope. He had read it in books. The clearest record was written by the calligrapher Chen Guojun in 1916 during the late Qing Dynasty. His servant was poisoned, but the symptoms he described were different from Mr. Zou's, "Zheng Ren said.
"I also think it's nonsense," Su Yun said. "The word 'Gu' in the oracle bone inscriptions is like a container with many insects. According to the perspective of hieroglyphics, that's indeed the case."
"'Zuo Zhuan' said that the insects are Gu. It should be the same meaning," Mu Tao added.
Su Yun felt that talking to Mu Tao was more enjoyable. A smart person would say that it was simple and worry-free.
"Old Mu, do you believe it?"
"I don't believe it," Mu Tao said seriously. "Although I don't believe it, I still keep a respectful distance."
"Then why did you still charge?"
"There's not much money in that card. It's the teacher's medical fee," Mu Tao said. "You have to charge the money that should be charged. Otherwise, the other side will have other ideas."
"I believe in the existence of Gu poison," Zheng Ren said lightly as he looked out of the window.
"Boss, why are you still so superstitious? It's very rare," Su Yun said. "In the future, before the surgery, should we find a good day, like the family of the pregnant woman who gave birth yesterday?"
"Since ancient times, the prohibition of Gu poison has been in various laws." Zheng Ren looked at Su Yun as if he was looking at an idiot, which made Su Yun feel a little scared.
"The laws of the Han Dynasty, the laws of the Tang Dynasty, the laws of the Ming Dynasty, and the laws of the Qing Dynasty all have them. I reckon that Gu poison was prevalent at that time, but after continuous suppression and prohibition, they all went to the wilderness in Nanyang. Therefore, everyone only knows about Nanyang Gu poison now. "
"Yes, in the 'Shennong's Classic of Herbal Medicine', there are 42 herbal formulas for detoxification of Gu poison," Mu Tao added.
"Who knows?" It was rare for Su Yun not to refute. He just fiddled with his phone, probably thinking about tomorrow's Comic Con.
"Boss Zheng, this kind of thing is usually more evil. We'd rather believe it than not, so I say it's better not to touch it," Mu Tao said cautiously. "You're different from the teacher. The teacher is here to see patients. If a patient comes, he can't be pushed out. However, you're here for TIPS surgery. It has nothing to do with this. "
Zheng Ren nodded. Zheng Ren did not think about the System mission at all.
Zheng Ren felt that it was very unreliable to treat the gu poison for the sake of Reputation + 1.
There were no problems with the patient's test results. If not for the System's hint, Zheng Ren would have felt that it was hysteria or a family ghost causing trouble, assassinating Mr. Zou because of the family property.
Soon, Mu Tao drove to the hotel.
Zheng Ren got out of the car and saw three cars parked at the entrance of the hotel. A man in his fifties with an honest look on his face had his hands in front of him as if he was waiting for something.
Seeing Mu Tao drive in, he checked the license plate number. After Zheng Ren got out of the car, he came in front of him and asked politely, "May I ask if you're Mr. Zheng?"
"I am." Zheng Ren felt that this trip to Shenzhen City was really troublesome. The more he wanted to stay away from trouble, the more it kept an eye on him.
"Master wants to see you. Please follow me, Mr. Zheng," the man said.
He should be the Zou family's driver or something like that, Zheng Ren guessed.
"I'm sorry, I need to rest," Zheng Ren said lightly. "If there's anything, we'll talk tomorrow morning."
Therefore, Zheng Ren simply rejected the driver's invitation.
The current medical science could not explain it. How could this kind of disease be treated? It was more appropriate to reject it from the beginning. Otherwise, Zheng Ren felt that it would be very troublesome.
Holding his toiletries, Zheng Ren bypassed the few luxurious cars and heard hearty laughter coming from behind him.
"Mr. Zheng, my daughter has offended you before. Please forgive her."
This was the main character. Zheng Ren felt a little helpless. He thought that he should quickly reject him and go upstairs to rest.
He turned around.
Zheng Ren was stunned.
