Prolonged Mr. Yun’s life? Lin Tian was stunned. He knew that Mr. Yun had been gravely injured while saving his grandson Yun Tian back in the day. Didn’t he survive because a Ghost Valley Inheritor appeared to temporarily heal him? How was this related to the mysterious spring?
"Haha, Xiao Tian, I knew you’d be puzzled. Let first tell you about the spring. I hope you’ll understand if one day you get to live here. I want you to feel grateful. This spring is the Yun Family’s lifeline, protecting it is as important as protecting any family mber," Mr. Yun said solemnly.
Live here? Lin Tian was even more puzzled. Was Mr. Yun hinting at sothing? No, it was almost an explicit indication. The one who can live here must be the head of the Yun Family.
In other words, if you, Lin Tian, are my eldest grandson Yun Tian, the Yun Family will be passed down to you in the future, and the place representing the highest authority of the Yun Family will naturally be where you reside.
But what about Xiao Tian? That boy is currently being grood as the successor. Lin Tian’s mind was sowhat confused. Was Mr. Yun being too hasty? He hadn’t even gotten a start yet, but he’s already arranging the aftermath as if Mr. Yun were close to dying.
Mr. Yun seed to perceive Lin Tian’s confusion and shook his head, saying, "You must think I’m too abrupt, but I’m afraid my ti is running short."
"Mr. Yun, what do you an by that?" Lin Tian asked with a frown. Could it be that Mr. Yun was terminally ill?
"I’m aware of my own condition. Though it may seem like I just can’t walk, the reality is much more severe. I know you are a doctor, and Xiao Tian brought you to treat . You’re bound to diagnose it eventually, so I don’t plan to hide it from you," Mr. Yun said earnestly, yet his eyes were calm, as if he had seen through life and death.
Lin Tian’s frown deepened. From the looks of it, Xiao Tian didn’t know about this, or else the little rascal would have been crying his eyes out by now.
"Originally, I only had no feeling below the knees. Recently, I’ve found that the dication seems unable to suppress it, and there’s no sensation even in my thighs. At this rate, I’m afraid it’s ominous. The Ghost Valley Inheritor back then also ntioned that he couldn’t completely heal it, and that the ailnt could relapse soday. This calamity is unavoidable," said Mr. Yun.
Xiao Tian had ntioned this before, but Lin Tian hadn’t thought it would occur at such a ti.
"Mr. Yun, would you let take a look?" Lin Tian asked.
"Feel free to look. Xiao Tian said you are highly skilled in dicine. I’d like to see for myself," Mr. Yun said graciously.
Lin Tian didn’t say anything more. He squatted down, placed his fingers on Mr. Yun’s wrist to feel his pulse, and closed his eyes. Feeling the pulse was only the surface; at the sa ti, Lin Tian activated his X-ray vision to directly scan Mr. Yun’s feet.
As soon as the scanning gaze reached Mr. Yun’s feet, Lin Tian froze. What was going on? Mr. Yun’s feet had no signs of life, as if they were a piece of withered wood!
This was sothing Lin Tian had never seen before. He had treated Song Yanan’s back pain, which was due to prolonged strain leading to a loss of muscle vitality and blocked ridians.
But Mr. Yun’s legs weren’t just lacking vitality; they were devoid of any life. Lin Tian seemingly couldn’t detect it.
Since obtaining the ability to see through, Lin Tian had used it to view many things — human bodies, animal bodies, plants and trees, underground stones — essentially anything that has life or doesn’t.
When observing human or animal bodies, Lin Tian could feel the life force coursing through muscle cells, a vivid sensation. The younger the body, or the more lush the plants, the more apparent the vibrancy.
However, when viewing dead objects like stones or withered wood, that vibrant feeling was absent, entirely lifeless. Mr. Yun’s legs were the sa.
Logically, with such an injury, Mr. Yun’s feet should have been amputated. Even if they weren’t amputated, they should have atrophied long ago. Yet, Lin Tian clearly saw that Mr. Yun’s feet were still whole, showing no signs of atrophy.
This situation was too bizarre, sothing Lin Tian had never encountered. If it were as Mr. Yun said, with numbness spreading from the lower legs to the thighs and then further, enveloping the whole body, Mr. Yun would beco entirely like withered wood, devoid of vitality.
That would an he’d be done for. No, it wouldn’t even need to reach that extent. If this condition spreads to any vital organ, it would basically be the end.
"How could this be?" Lin Tian opened his eyes, shaking his head in bewildernt.
It seed Mr. Yun had anticipated this result. He laughed heartily, "Xiao Tian, every doctor who’s examined had this expression. It seems my days are numbered, though I’ve gained many extra years over these past ones."
"Mr. Yun, I..." Lin Tian wanted to say that he was different from those doctors, that his diagnostic results were more accurate than the most advanced instrunts. But on second thought, could he even explain the X-ray vision?
Mr. Yun, mistaking Lin Tian’s silence for self-bla, comforted him, "Xiao Tian, there’s no need to bla yourself. No matter the result, I’m prepared to accept it."
"Mr. Yun, that’s not what I ant. Let put it this way: I need to understand more about this injury, including how it happened," Lin Tian said earnestly.
Seeing Lin Tian’s serious expression, Mr. Yun was sowhat surprised. Previous doctors, after diagnosis, typically just shook their heads in resignation. Lin Tian’s inquiry into the condition was practically unheard of.
However, Mr. Yun didn’t hold high hopes. He had been seen by too many renowned doctors, and Lin Tian was really just too young.
Yet, he nodded and said, "Speaking of the past, I must ntion a hospital, Xinghai Hospital."
"Xinghai Hospital?" Lin Tian was quite surprised. Isn’t that the best hospital in all of Huaxia?
"Oh, is Xiao Tian quite familiar with Xinghai Hospital?" Mr. Yun asked, curious.
"I’m not familiar with Xinghai Hospital itself, but I do know Dean Miao of Xinghai Hospital in Xikou City," Lin Tian said to himself, thinking that the Yun family’s investigation on him wasn’t very comprehensive, as they didn’t know everything.
"Dean Miao is actually an old friend of mine. He examined several tis, but he couldn’t do anything either," Mr. Yun said.
Mr. Yun ntioned Dean Miao and continued, "Xinghai Hospital has always had the best dical conditions, which was true back then as well. Therefore, when Yun Tian was to be born, the hospital chosen was Xinghai Hospital."
"Actually, there was another reason for choosing Xinghai Hospital; the Yun Family is one of its shareholders, so we are naturally quite familiar with its dical standards," Mr. Yun said.
"Oh, so Xinghai Hospital is owned by the Yun Family?" Lin Tian was once again surprised.
