I Became a Medical Genius in the 80s

Chapter 343 - 342: Administering Medicine

Wu Yuekai watched Luo Xudong leave with a sullen face, and suddenly burst into laughter, finally making this kid suffer a bit.Beisitian encountered Luo Xudong waiting for her at the door. This matter was not convenient for him to follow, but with Wu Yuekai there, he wasn’t worried about Beisitian’s safety. It was a good opportunity for him to explore Beijing more.

In the afternoon, Wu Yuekai took Beisitian with him. Beisitian changed into a military uniform, looking like an orderly taking care of Wu Yuekai.

Generally, patients are seen in the morning, but because Wu Yuekai had a good relationship with Zhou Biwu and heard that the condition had changed, he did not bother with formalities.

Zhou Biwu was arranged in a sanatorium, a separate one, even more impressive than the last time Wu Yuekai visited. The sanatorium was semi-enclosed, and unidentified people were not allowed to enter. Even for the Tian Family, only three could enter at a time.

Beisitian was secretly relieved. Even if Tian Qiu was willing to bring her here, he couldn’t get in himself because Tian Qiu didn’t have the qualifications.

Only a few people from the Tian Family were qualified to enter, all with special ID cards, including Tian Heming and his wife, their three sons, and two uncles, totaling seven people with access cards.

Moreover, anyone entering or leaving the sanatorium must go through security checks, which not only check for inflammable and explosive materials but also prohibit taking out any data or information from the sanatorium.

Even though a confidentiality agreement was signed, strict precautions were still necessary.

Seeing this, Beisitian felt a tightness in her heart, increasingly convinced that not exposing herself was the right choice. Once involved, she feared her freedom would be limited.

Wu Yuekai was not an unidentified person, and to avoid suspicion, he only brought three people. Li Xuejun did not come, replaced by Beisitian, and the other two were guards.

There was no reason for Wu Yuekai to be stopped at the sanatorium. The security check at the entrance was routine, and he cooperated fully. The group then entered.

When Wu Yuekai reached the lounge, he was greeted by Chu Bozhong, captain of Zhou Biwu’s guard company.

Chu Bozhong, tall and robust, was clean-shaven, exuding an aura of authority without anger. His eyebrows stood upright, resembling the deity Guan Gong.

"How’s Brother Zhou?" Wu Yuekai asked, frowning after taking a sip of water.

Chu Bozhong shook his head, "No progress."

No progress was not optimistic. Wu Yuekai’s frown deepened, "Take me to see him."

Chu Bozhong nodded and led the way to Zhou Biwu’s room.

Beisitian followed closely behind, eyes wide open, glancing around, seeing several cameras in the hallway, monitoring every room with almost no blind spots. She slightly lowered her hat brim.

There were several rooms on the second floor, and they entered a south-facing one. It was spacious, a suite, and inside was a large living room where several people sat, all looking worried and gloomy.

After entering, Chu Bozhong said to Wu Yuekai, "Brigade commander, the general is inside." With that, he made a gesture inviting him to enter.

The three people in the living room saw Chu Bozhong personally bringing an elder in and stood up, realizing the visitor’s unusual status.

Beisitian glanced at them and followed Wu Yuekai into the inner room.

Upon entering the bedroom, Wu Yuekai saw Zhou Biwu lying on the bed with eyes tightly closed, appearing even older than last he came. Seeing this, he couldn’t help but sigh.

Recalling Zhou Biwu from two years ago, though older than himself, his hair was black, no age spots on his face, and physically robust—far more so than himself. Now, he looked decrepit, lying motionless, face ashen, giving the impression of death.

Beisitian slightly turned, glanced at Zhou Biwu, and frowned. Zhou Biwu’s face was shrouded in a gray aura, visible only to a Mystic Doctor or felt by them.

She remembered Wu Yuekai saying that when Tao Hailin saw Zhou Biwu, his expression changed dramatically, claiming he couldn’t treat him. Now it seemed Tao Hailin had seen through it.

Zhou Biwu likely became like this because he drank talismanic water!

The talismanic water caused his condition, which is why modern medicine couldn’t find the cause.

Xuan Talismans aren’t only for saving people, just as medicine isn’t always a cure—there are poisons. Xuan Talismans are the same, like the corrosive Xuan Talisman she used to stimulate Luo Anguo’s spine. If improperly consumed, it could burn the stomach, and if the stomach perforates, even a drop of talismanic water leaking could further damage other organs, causing severe damage to the five viscera.

This type of Xuan Talisman is generally called a Poison Talisman, its resulting water, bad water.

Beisitian’s gaze wandered over Zhou Biwu. Besides drinking the bad water, Zhou Biwu likely had other issues, with his body unable to autonomously maintain basic physiological needs, and removing the thousand-year-old ginseng would cause immediate death.

"I brought along a seven to eight-hundred-year-old ginseng, Chu Lianzhang, come with me to fetch it. Girl, wait here for me." Wu Yuekai said, then walked out.

Chu Bozhong was stunned, intuitively sensing Wu Yuekai wanted to talk to him, or he would let the little orderly fetch it. Thinking of this, he glanced at the orderly, finding her stunningly beautiful, but thought nothing more and hurried to follow Wu Yuekai out.

Left alone in the ward, Beisitian’s eyes shone brightly. She approached Zhou Biwu, lightly sweeping her hand above his face. The gray aura seemed disturbed, churning.

She withdrew her hand, gently rubbing her thumb and forefinger, carefully feeling it, furrowing her brow, finding the sensation familiar. What was it?

Momentarily unable to recall, she set it aside, lifting Zhou Biwu’s eyelid, then taking his arm from under the quilt, holding his pulse, and soon placed it back.

No sign of poisoning. The body had suffered immense damage, exacerbated by the Poison Talisman, causing him to remain unconscious and his body to decline sharply.

The bad water from the Poison Talisman merely amplified the internal injury’s effects, causing sustained harm that, though chronic, inflicted irreparable damage.

Identifying the main cause, Beisitian breathed a sigh of relief. Zhou Biwu’s condition appeared severe, but nowhere near as perilous as Wu Yuekai’s incident. He was weakened by the bad water, and once a solution to counter the Poison Talisman is found and the corresponding Xuan Talismans made to resist the bad water’s effects, internal injuries could improve.

However, understanding what exactly constitutes this Poison Talisman cannot be done overnight.

Beisitian took out the prepared talismanic water, carefully helping Zhou Biwu drink it. Coupled with the thousand-year-old ginseng’s effects, it should temporarily ease his condition.

"What are you doing!"

Just as she tucked away the small jar, she heard someone enter, questioning loudly.
