“Fake? If this is fake, I shall not die a good death! How about this, let me demonstrate for everyone. Look here, I have two pieces of pig liver, do you see…” Zou Yu had yesterday’s servant bring out two pieces of pig liver, one was a fresh red, the other a dark red.
“Can everyone see? This dark red one is obviously diseased, right? Our ancestors have said, the liver governs blood storage and has the function of storing and regulating blood. However, for people who are older, liver function tends to deteriorate. So why do children have rosy cheeks while the elderly tend to have sallow skin? It’s all because of liver issues, isn’t it? When the liver is not good, the kidneys are not good, and that leads to back and leg pain, osteoporosis. But now, look at something miraculous…”
Zou Yu had someone bring over two basins, “Please look, I have two basins here, one is filled with clear water, and the other with our Immortal Water. Now, I will soak the diseased pig liver in the clear water for a quarter of an hour… Alright, the quarter of an hour is up, I will now take it out, everyone please see, there’s no change, right? Then I will put this diseased pig liver into our Immortal Water, let’s see what effect it has?”
Xia Dabao was also watching; if this pig liver returned to its original state, it would be as spectacular as watching an opera.
Yet, the miracle happened. They saw the pig liver slowly change color, and finally, it almost matched the color of a healthy pig liver!
The elderly audience all expressed their amazement, and no one doubted anymore, only asking Zou Yu, “Divine Doctor, how much is your Immortal Water?”
Zou Yu then became coy, “It’s not a matter of money. Although our Immortal Water is very effective, I still need to take everyone’s pulse to see if you are suitable to use it first. After all, Immortal Water isn’t suitable for everyone; only after I have checked, can we be sure. How about this, all our elderly friends here, please e and line up, and I will examine each of you…”
Since Zou Yu didn’t say whether the medicine was free or if it cost money, and hearing that not everyone was suitable, people thought they might as well give it a try.
Zou Yu quickly filtered out a portion of the elderly people, and Dabao noticed that Zou Yu was quite discerning in his selection, choosing mainly those who were financially better off, probably because yesterday’s effort was not wasted.
After the examination, Zou Yu finally said, “Our Immortal Water is not that expensive, you can buy it for just three taels of silver.”
Three taels of silver?
Some of the elderly hesitated whether to buy or not, but some were already taking out their life savings.
Although Xia Dabao didn’t know why the pig liver changed color, she felt that it was really necessary for her to e forward and expose Zou Yu now.
“Don’t believe him, he’s a fraudster!” Xia Dabao ran onto the stage and grabbed Zou Yu, “Aunts and uncles, I just saw this man a while ago. At that time, he was pursuing a lady, and when she ignored him, he even threatened to jump into the river. He doesn’t even have a wife, how could he have a grandson? Whoever believes him will be at a loss!”
“…” When Zou Yu saw Xia Dabao, he was first stunned, feeling she looked somewhat familiar, but couldn’t recall where he had seen her since at that time, Xia Dabao had been in disguise as a man.
Zou Yu hurriedly tried to clear himself, “Heaven is my witness, this lady must have mistaken me for someone else, I have never seen her before.”
