This damned old man actually poisoned her. Even though it was the little kid’s carelessness, he is the shopkeeper here, and he can’t shirk responsibility.
Knowing that sothing had gone wrong, he still had the nerve to claim he didn’t charge any silver? This is poison! Even if it were free, who the hell would dare to consu it?
"Yes, yes, Miss, please be magnanimous and don’t hold a grudge against this old man." At this mont, Divine Doctor Cheng had none of the aloofness from when Zi Xia and the others ca in yesterday.
With a wry smile, Divine Doctor Cheng suddenly glanced over and, only then, noticed Zi Xia moving freely and looked at her ankle with so surprise, saying: "Miss, you seem in good health. If you hadn’t said anything, I would have thought last night’s girl was your twin sister! What on earth happened?"
Indeed, last night Zi Xia was in such agony she couldn’t even walk, yet now she was lively and energetic; anyone would be surprised seeing this.
Feeling proud, Zi Xia said: "It was the young lady who healed ."
Divine Doctor Cheng: "Young lady?"
"This is my lady," Zi Xia indicated Xuexue next to her.
Divine Doctor Cheng looked Xuexue up and down, asking: "Does Miss understand dical skills?"
Xuexue nodded slightly: "I know a little."
She had only learned so superficial knowledge from dical books in the spatial realm.
"Oh dear! Oh dear! Divine Doctor, please check on quickly. I’m in so much pain."
At that mont, a woman nearby clutched her stomach and cried out in pain, looking very distressed.
Doctor Cheng noticed and promptly walked over, examined her, picked up a pen, and quickly wrote a few lines on paper. He was about to call his assistant to fetch the dicine but then reconsidered, not feeling assured due to the recent incident.
So, he stood up, went to the counter himself, and personally picked out two packages from unopened dicines.
Xuexue observed the woman’s lips turning sowhat dark, which didn’t look like a stomach issue; she had clearly heard the so-called Divine Doctor diagnose it as such just now.
Initially, she didn’t want to ddle, but she wanted to undermine this so-called Divine Doctor Cheng. In such a small place, how dare he claim to be a divine doctor?
"Auntie, I see your lips are dark, and you have cold sweats. It doesn’t look like a stomach illness, but rather poisoning."
"Poisoning?" The woman was stunned and said: "Impossible. I have no power or influence; my family is dirt poor. Who would poison ? Impossible, impossible."
The woman shook her head while speaking, totally incredulous at Xuexue’s words.
Her family was too poor to keep a tune, barely managing three als a day. Who would waste ti and effort to harm her? Isn’t that crazy?
Xuexue: "Are you feeling like your stomach is churning, you want to vomit, and your limbs are weak?"
The woman’s expression grew increasingly pained, speaking with difficulty: "Yes, definitely like that, and my stomach hurts more and more."
"That’s because the poison has already spread throughout your body. If delayed further, once the poison invades your vital organs, not even an immortal could save you."
The woman got scared hearing this: "Miss, don’t frighten !"
Zi Xia added: "Auntie, we’ve never t before; why would my lady scare you! Besides, my foot injury was healed by my lady, as you heard earlier."
The woman was listening clearly nearby during the earlier scene, feeling a bit hesitant. Divine Doctor Cheng was renowned in Xingyang City, so instinctively, she trusted Divine Doctor Cheng more.
