In Another World, Everyone Want to Kill Me!-Chapter 163: A Thirty Percent Gamble

Neither of them obtained clear answers to the questions they cared about and the atmosphere fell into silence for a moment.

After a short while, Yue Mingxuan spoke. "Miracle Doctor Gongsun, your medical skills are extraordinary. If cold poison invades the meridians, do you know how it should be treated?"

Gongsun Xing pondered for a moment before replying, "Unless one can find an extremely hot location, combine it with dual cultivation, and at the same time take Emberveil Herd while circulating the internal energy for several cycles, there may be miraculous effects."

When Yue Mingxuan heard this, a faint flush appeared on his face.

He had never imagined that dual cultivation could be used as a method of treatment too.

This Miracle Doctor Gongsun was far too direct.

Although Gongsun Xing could not see Yue Mingxuan’s expression beneath the mask, he clearly noticed his reddened ears and said, "A doctor treats people. How can one be bound by the means?"

Hearing this, Yue Mingxuan could not help but feel a little ashamed.

In his previous life, he had treated countless patients.

In a doctor’s eyes, there should be no distinction of gender. Yet after coming to this ancient era, he himself had become constrained by such thoughts.

"Miracle Doctor Gongsun, thank you."

This thanks was not only respect from a junior to a senior, but also gratitude for awakening his heart as a doctor.

Seeing Yue Mingxuan’s sincere and composed attitude, Gongsun Xing also felt a favorable impression grow in his heart. "It is nothing. For an unmarried Ger to have such awareness is already not easy."

At this moment, Yue Mingxuan was like an eager student.

Opportunities to exchange ideas with a skilled doctor were rare, especially one known as a Miracle Doctor, which spoke volumes about his medical mastery.

"Miracle Doctor Gongsun, have you ever heard of the heart opening surgery?"

Yue Mingxuan’s words caused Gongsun Xing’s brows to knit slightly.

He had seen records of the heart opening surgery in his father’s notes, but he had always believed it to be groundless nonsense and had not paid it much attention.

"I know a little."

Although Yue Mingxuan had expected this answer, he was still somewhat disappointed.

"Then is there any way to treat a congenital heart condition?"

Gongsun Xing thought for a moment and said, "With Jade Essence Gingseng, Heavenly Dew Flower taken daily, and avoiding extreme joy, extreme sorrow, and excessive worry, one may preserve a lifespan of fifty years... Are you also a doctor?"

Yue Mingxuan nodded, his heart filled with disappointment.

He had originally thought Gongsun Xing might offer a better treatment method, but it turned out to be another letdown. 𝐟𝚛𝕖𝚎𝕨𝗲𝐛𝚗𝐨𝐯𝐞𝕝.𝐜𝗼𝗺

Although Shang Qinghua’s cold poison could be removed, the treatment conditions were extremely harsh.

As for Rong Qinglei’s illness, it seemed there was no other option but surgery.

Thinking of this, he asked cautiously, "I wonder if Miracle Doctor Gongsun could help introduce me to the young master of the Sword Forge Villa. I wish to have a set of instruments made. No one surpasses the Sword Forge Villa in craftsmanship."

"Are you going to use it for the heart opening surgery?" Gongsun Xing immediately saw through Yue Mingxuan’s intention and said, "A person dies without a heart. You know that, don’t you? As a doctor, how can you treat human life as a child’s game?"

By the end, his tone even carried a trace of sternness.

A flash of loss crossed Yue Mingxuan’s face.

If he had any other option right now, no matter how difficult, he would try everything to cure Rong Qinglei. But, he could no longer afford to wait.

"Miracle Doctor Gongsun, the person I wish to treat suffered a heart episode a few days ago and already fell unconscious once. Although he has awakened now, he cannot get out of bed and can only survive by relying on medicine. I cannot even be sure how many more days he can hold on. How could I not know that Jade Essence Gingseng and Heavenly Dew Flower can delay the illness? It is simply too late. Rather than watching him die from another episode, I would rather gamble once. If there is even the slightest chance of success, that would still be worth it."

Gongsun Xing could heard the sincerity, helplessness, and urgency in Yue Mingxuan’s tone.

After a moment of silence, he asked, "How much confidence do you have?"

Yue Mingxuan thought for a moment and replied, "Thirty percent."

Hearing this, Gongsun Xing stood up and slowly paced back and forth in the flower hall.

After about the time it took for an incense stick to burn, he finally said, "I can help introduce you to Wang Jian, and I can even assist you at your side when you carry out the heart opening surgery. I only have one condition..." He paused, his tone becoming several degrees more severe. "If you fail, you must never practice medicine again for the rest of your life."

Yue Mingxuan let out a soft sigh.

Gongsun Xing’s condition was not exactly harsh, but it was extremely strict.

Doctors were not saints; even the most skilled doctor could make mistakes.

For Gongsun Xing to demand this of him was truly excessive. "Miracle Doctor Gongsun, have you never failed even once in your life?"

Gongsun Xing looked at Yue Mingxuan strangely and said, "I began studying medicine with the elders of the sect at the age of one. At five, I independently treated my first patient. For more than twenty years, I have never failed once."

Hearing this, Yue Mingxuan opened his mouth in shock.

In modern times, even famous doctors who had practiced medicine for decades had several failed cases under their hands.

No wonder Gongsun Xing was known as a Miracle Doctor, this one hundred percent success rate was terrifying.

Moreover, he had started learning medicine at the age of one; his enlightenment books were probably medical texts.

Since he was such a freak of nature, it was not strange for him to propose such a condition.
