Gulu gulu …
As the sound of the carriage wheels on the uneven ground faded away, Li Ke bid farewell to the idealistic coachman and finally arrived at the hospital that he had been looking forward to for some time. As expected, he was very disappointed.
Gray walls, a narrow front yard, and a large number of people in tattered clothes walking in and out of the dilapidated hospital gate. Two guards who looked like they could beat up two of Sheyan's guards were standing together and chatting. From time to time, they would point at someone with their mechanical arms and scold them loudly. The person who was scolded walked into the hospital indifferently and didn't have the slightest intention to talk back. Zhang Heng looked at Sheyan and Sheyan, who was scolded by Sheyan and Sheyan. Most people just numbly covered their painful places, then slowly moved, without any superfluous expression on their faces.
No, it was better to say that they were used to this kind of pain and this kind of gratuitous abuse.
After Li Ke left those people who were full of hope, he saw such a gloomy situation. However, when this person, who was dressed in neat clothes and had a very imposing manner, walked to the side of the two guards, the arrogance of the two guards immediately disappeared. Instead, it was a kind of flattering attitude.
"Sir, how can I help you?"
Looking at the two guards who suddenly changed their attitude, Li Ke lowered his voice to make his voice sound a little hoarse.
"My throat is a little uncomfortable, so can you tell me where I can find a doctor?"
"Of course, please come with me."
The two guards looked at each other, then one of them led Li Ke into the hospital and directly passed through the crowd waiting for registration. They pushed away the people who were queuing in front of a big room, then sent Li Ke to the doctor's reception room closest to the door. The whole process didn't take half a minute. What Li Ke saw was an old man with white hair and a pair of glasses. He wasn't a young apprentice like he had imagined.
Moreover, when he walked into the room, the old man didn't even look at him. Instead, he spoke seriously to a middle-aged man with soot on his clothes.
"In your situation, I suggest you get a vocal cord from Hex Technology. If it's a transplant or medicine, the effect won't be very good. Your throat has already begun to grow sarcomas and lumps. In addition, you've taken some kind of poison that I don't understand … If you take medicine, I'm afraid that in the end, you can only use Hex Technology to replace it. And if it's a transplant, the cost will be higher. "
The middle-aged man who was being treated had a very bad expression when he heard this. He answered the doctor with a leaky voice.
"Sorry, I just need some medicine that can make me less painful."
"But this will cost you your life."
"… Some medicine will do."
The old doctor could only sigh, then shook his head helplessly. After saying a few words to the apprentice beside him, he let his apprentice take the middle-aged man away. When the middle-aged man left, Li Ke intentionally or unintentionally touched the middle-aged man with his shoulder. At this moment, he used his perception to perceive the physical condition of the man. He then perceived a large amount of active vitality in his throat, but this vitality was quite chaotic and disorderly. It was constantly plundering the vitality of the other parts of the man's body.
If it was before, Li Ke still didn't know what was going on, but after obtaining Shurima's magical knowledge, or to be exact, common sense, he already knew what was going on.
Without a doubt, this place that was abnormally active and filled with disorderly life force was cancerous.
This was another tragic thing, but …
"Drink more hot water."
After patting the man's shoulder, Li Ke slightly used his magic to send a mass of vitality mana into the man's body. He also used his own will to 'correct' this mass of vitality to save the man's life. However, the man, who didn't know that his illness was slowly getting better, looked at Li Ke's hand that was covered in soot from patting his shoulder with a strange look. Then, he carefully bowed to Li Ke and left quickly. The old doctor's voice sounded along with the sound of the man closing the door.
"If you have any questions, just say it. I still have a lot of patients, and I don't have much time to chat with you."
He looked impatiently at Li Ke, who was dressed neatly. He even took off his glasses and wiped them.
"I have a slight sore throat, so I want to ask if there is any medicine here that can be used to treat it. After all, I am also a doctor."
A doctor's duty is to save people's lives, and I often kill those who harm others and save those who are innocent. Therefore, although I'm using a scalpel that weighs more than 100 kilograms, I should still be a doctor.
Li Ke silently ridiculed himself in his heart, then directly sat in front of the doctor.
"Interesting. Then you should go to those alchemy shops, not here, young man."
Looking at Li Ke's face and his throat, the middle-aged doctor let out a disdainful laugh. He felt that this person was provoking him. This was nothing new. In this city, the fastest way to become famous in a certain industry was to step on your own seniors. And people like him, who had spent his whole life in this kind of hospital, were the kind of target that young people like to choose.
"But you can't see the most patients in this city there, right?"
However, Li Ke's words stunned him for a moment. These words were obviously not meant to provoke him. Obviously, he had other intentions. He instinctively felt that something was wrong and quickly asked.
"What do you want to do? This is just a hospital. "
Li Ke's temperament could not make the old doctor relax at all, but Li Ke just smiled and put a bag of gold coins in front of the old doctor, then pushed his hat.
"I want to see all the cases in this hospital, is that okay?"
Glancing at the bag full of gold coins, and then at Li Ke, who gave him an indescribable feeling, the old doctor gritted his teeth and firmly shook his head.
"Although I don't know what you want to do, my intuition tells me that you are a dangerous person, so I refuse. This is a hospital, not a place where gangsters can come in for revenge!"
