Neither of them obtained clear answers to the questions they cared about and the atmosphere fell into silence for a mont.
After a short while, Yue Mingxuan spoke. "Miracle Doctor Gongsun, your dical skills are extraordinary. If cold poison invades the ridians, do you know how it should be treated?"
Gongsun Xing pondered for a mont before replying, "Unless one can find an extrely hot location, combine it with dual cultivation, and at the sa ti 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 thod of treatnt 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 ans?"
Hearing this, Yue Mingxuan could not help but feel a little ashad.
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 beco 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 mont, 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 volus about his dical 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 sowhat disappointed.
"Then is there any way to treat a congenital heart condition?"
Gongsun Xing thought for a mont and said, "With Jade Essence Gingseng, Heavenly Dew Flower taken daily, and avoiding extre joy, extre sorrow, and excessive worry, one may preserve a lifespan of fifty years... Are you also a doctor?"
Yue Mingxuan nodded, his heart filled with disappointnt.
He had originally thought Gongsun Xing might offer a better treatnt thod, but it turned out to be another letdown.
Although Shang Qinghua’s cold poison could be removed, the treatnt conditions were extrely harsh.
As for Rong Qinglei’s illness, it seed there was no other option but surgery.
Thinking of this, he asked cautiously, "I wonder if Miracle Doctor Gongsun could help introduce to the young master of the Sword Forge Villa. I wish to have a set of instrunts made. No one surpasses the Sword Forge Villa in craftsmanship."
"Are you going to use it for the heart opening surgery?" Gongsun Xing imdiately 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 ga?"
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 dicine. 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 mont of silence, he asked, "How much confidence do you have?"
Yue Mingxuan thought for a mont and replied, "Thirty percent."
Hearing this, Gongsun Xing stood up and slowly paced back and forth in the flower hall.
After about the ti 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 dicine 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 extrely 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 dicine 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 tis, even famous doctors who had practiced dicine 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 dicine at the age of one; his enlightennt books were probably dical texts.
Since he was such a freak of nature, it was not strange for him to propose such a condition.
