Extraordinary Soldier King in the City
Chapter 1627: Strange Illness
The woman’s words made both Chen Feng and Mu Dongcheng’s faces change.
But very soon, the two also caught the key point in what the woman said.
In other words, this wasn’t the first time the little girl had fainted for no reason.
She’d fainted before, and it was always on nights with a full moon!
Thinking of this.
Chen Feng frowned and pondered for a moment, then looked at the woman and asked, "Ma’am, just now you said she’d fainted before on full moon nights as well, right?"
"Yes, basically every fifteenth of the lunar month, the night of the full moon, she’ll faint, and wake up the next morning. But something like fainting during the day has never happened before, so you must have done something to her!"
The woman nodded, glaring warily at Chen Feng and Mu Dongcheng as she spoke.
"Ma’am, please don’t get worked up yet. You can take a look at your daughter. Compare how she is now to how she is when she faints on full moon nights—are they similar, or should I say, are they the same?"
Chen Feng waved his hand as he asked.
Hearing this.
The woman froze for a moment, then quickly lowered her head and glanced at the little girl in her arms.
The little girl’s small face was deathly pale, like a sheet of white paper.
Her lips were purple.
Her whole body was radiating a biting cold, like a block of ice.
Seeing this.
The woman’s face changed instantly.
Because the way the little girl had passed out now...
Was almost no different from how she looked when she fainted on full moon nights.
Her face was just a bit paler than usual, that was all.
Everything else was almost exactly the same.
Could it be that Yingying really fainted on her own?
Thinking of this.
The woman looked up at Chen Feng, nodded, and said, "It does look pretty similar!"
"Then that should be it. I know some Medical Skill. If I’m not mistaken, your daughter should be suffering from some kind of strange illness. As for exactly what illness, I don’t know yet, because I haven’t given her a detailed examination. I can only hypothesize for now that the usual time it acts up is on full moon nights. As for why it struck during the day today, it might be because her condition has gotten more serious."
Chen Feng spoke with a grave expression.
He wasn’t joking, and he wasn’t trying to scare the woman.
He was simply telling her the situation that best matched the facts.
After hearing Chen Feng’s words.
The woman’s face changed at once, and the worry in her eyes deepened instantly.
She looked at Chen Feng, still somewhat skeptical, and asked, "Why should I believe you?"
"Ma’am, you can first check your daughter and see if there are any external injuries on her body. For her to be unconscious this long, at the very least she’d have to take a heavy blow to the head. If you really don’t believe us, then check if her head has suffered any actual trauma. If you can find any new injuries on her body, then I won’t say another word. If not, then I ask that you place your trust in us."
Chen Feng said seriously.
Hearing this.
The woman frowned, then began carefully checking her daughter’s head and body.
After a thorough check, she indeed found no injuries at all.
Which meant her daughter really had fainted on her own!
And it was highly likely that her old illness had gotten even worse.
Thinking of this.
The woman’s face changed instantly. She quickly looked at Chen Feng and asked, "Y-you... do you have any way to save my daughter?"
"I can’t guarantee that. I have to first examine her condition and find out the cause of the illness before I can give you a clear answer."
Chen Feng shook his head and said.
"Alright, then I’ll trust you. No matter what, I’m begging you, you must save my daughter!"
The woman looked at Chen Feng and pleaded.
At this point, she was completely grasping at straws.
Her daughter’s illness had always been a stone pressing on her chest.
With this strange illness, let alone the country doctors in this small town...
Even those specialists in the big provincial cities hadn’t been able to find the cause.
To treat her daughter, the family’s savings were almost completely drained.
They were even about to reach the point of selling everything they owned.
But never mind curing it...
They hadn’t even found the cause yet, they had no idea what illness it was at all.
This was what made people most despair.
And now, she had met Chen Feng.
Listening to Chen Feng’s earlier analysis, so clear and well-reasoned...
It made the woman see a sliver of hope, so she decided to let Chen Feng give it a try.
"Please rest assured. I seem to have quite a bit of fate with this little girl. Since we’ve met, I definitely won’t just stand by and do nothing. As long as I’m able to save her, I’ll do everything I can." 𝚏𝐫𝚎𝗲𝕨𝐞𝐛𝕟𝚘𝐯𝚎𝗹.𝕔𝐨𝗺
Chen Feng nodded and promised.
"Then thank you so much!"
The woman hurriedly expressed her gratitude.
Then she glanced around, and said to Chen Feng and Mu Dongcheng, "This isn’t a place for seeing patients. Please, come to my home with me."
Hearing this.
Chen Feng turned to look at Mu Dongcheng.
Mu Dongcheng naturally had no objections and nodded.
They were already here anyway.
The goal of this trip was to go to the Ancient Martial Alliance Certification Association to submit an application and have the Chen Family officially become an Ancient Martial Family.
But that wasn’t urgent.
It could wait a bit; even going tomorrow wouldn’t be too late.
Treating and saving a life, however, couldn’t be delayed.
Besides, he was quite fond of this little girl, and he really couldn’t bear to watch her suffer any more pain.
Seeing that Mu Dongcheng had no objections.
Chen Feng looked at the woman and smiled. "Then please lead the way."
"Alright, please follow me!"
The woman nodded, then hurriedly led the way ahead with the little girl in her arms.
Chen Feng and Mu Dongcheng followed closely behind.
Just like that.
The group walked a bit further along the street in the middle of the town.
Then they turned into a small alley on the right and arrived in front of a shabby little wooden house.
And this was the little girl’s home.
Just from the outside, you could tell the house was very simple.
From this, it was clear the little girl’s family wasn’t very well off.
The woman took out a key, stepped forward to open the door, then turned to Chen Feng and Mu Dongcheng and said a bit embarrassedly, "Please, come in. The place is a bit run-down. I hope you won’t mind."
"Not at all."
Chen Feng and Mu Dongcheng smiled and shook their heads, then walked into the small wooden house.
Just like its exterior...
The furnishings inside the cabin were also extremely simple.
In the middle stood a small wooden table, with three small stools beside it.
Against the right wall of the cabin was a wooden bed. There was no separate bedroom.
The living room and bedroom were one and the same.
A very simple standard room.
But it had to be said, it was swept very clean.
From this, it was clear the woman was usually quite diligent.
"Gentlemen, please sit wherever you like, make yourselves at home."
The woman looked at Chen Feng and Mu Dongcheng and said with a smile.
