Chapter 272 Sir, please come in
scandal!
What a scandal!
What happened between her and Ling Xiaotian was actually recorded and became known to everyone!
Finished!
It's all over!
The Zhou family is finished, and she is finished too!
What made her even more heartbroken was her son who was still unconscious on the bed.
Zhou Peng's dantian was destroyed and his meridians were broken. The best alchemists in the sect came to see him, but they just shook their heads and sighed, and asserted that he would never be able to practice again in this life, and that he was lucky to be able to keep his life.
His son's future was ruined, and his own secret was exposed...
Just then, a burst of shouting floated in through the window.
"Specialized in treating damaged meridians, hidden ailments of the Dantian, and demonic possession..."
"The medicine works immediately, but if it doesn't work, I won't charge you a penny..."
At first, Zhou Wan was upset and didn't take it seriously.
But when the words "hidden disease of Dantian" entered her ears, she was shocked!
She rushed to the window, held on to the window frame with both hands and looked out.
At the street corner opposite the mansion, an "old man" in a green shirt and carrying a medicine box was sitting cross-legged, with a cloth banner in front of him swaying slightly in the wind.
He was surrounded by a group of ferocious guards, but he remained calm and composed, with even a hint of compassionate smile on his face.
He's the one shouting!
fraud?
A quack doctor?
No! Whoever he is!
As long as there is a slight possibility, even the slightest possibility... she must not let it go!
……
Outside the mansion.
The guard's patience had clearly worn thin.
"Damn it, shameless!"
He spat viciously, strode forward impatiently, stretched out his hand, and pushed Yun Chen's shoulder.
"I told you to get out, didn't you fucking hear me..."
His hand was about to touch Yun Chen's clothes.
"stop!"
A female voice came from inside the mansion gate!
"Squeak-"
The door was pulled open from the inside.
Mrs. Zhou Wan rushed out with the support of a maid.
She looked at Yun Chen who was surrounded by guards.
She shook off the maid's hand and walked in front of Yun Chen.
"Sir... can you... can you really heal a broken Dantian?"
Yun Chen didn't even raise his eyelids as he slowly and methodically stroked his carefully glued-on goatee.
"A shattered Dantian might be a terminal illness with no chance of recovery for others."
He paused, then slowly raised his eyes.
"Old Man Yu just put in some effort."
Take some effort?
This is an injury that even the Qingyun Sect’s alchemists are helpless to treat!
According to this "old man", it's just "some effort"?
Zhou Wan took a step forward and said anxiously, "Sir! Are you telling the truth?"
Yun Chen's eyes swept across her face. He didn't answer directly, but changed the subject, his tone still calm: "Of course, it's just that the herbs needed to treat Dantian are very precious and the cost is huge."
This is negotiating terms.
But at this moment, Zhou Wan no longer cares about any conditions.
Not to mention medicinal herbs, even if it meant her life, she would not hesitate as long as it could save her son's future!
"As long as it can save my son! Any medicinal herbs will do! Our Zhou family will pay any price!"
"Sir, it's windy outside, hurry! Please come into the house!"
Zhou Wan turned around abruptly and shouted at the dumbfounded guards, "What are you still standing there for?"
"What a bunch of clueless people! Make way for the gentleman!"
"If you delay my son's treatment, I will skin you alive!"
The guards were shocked by the scolding and looked at each other in confusion.
Just now you were shouting and urging this old man to be killed, but now your wife wants to invite him in like an ancestor?
They had heard a little about what was happening in the mansion and knew that this lady was a powder keg that could explode at any time, and no one dared to offend her.
The leading guard, Guard A, quickly bowed and said, "Yes, yes! Madam is right!"
"Sir, please, please!"
Yun Chen stood up, brushed off the dust on his blue shirt, and calmly carried the medicine box on his back.
Under Zhou Wan's flattering and attentive guidance, he stepped over the high threshold of the Zhou Mansion.
The courtyard, which used to be quite tidy, was now a little messy. The servants were all in a hurry, with their heads down, not even daring to breathe.
Zhou Wan didn't care about these things at all. She trotted all the way, leading Yun Chen through the corridor and straight to Zhou Peng's bedroom in the backyard.
"Sir, my son...he is inside..."
When I opened the door, a smell of medicine hit my nose.
Zhou Peng's eyes were tightly closed, his lips were cracked, his chest was rising and falling only slightly, and he was barely breathing.
His clothes sank at the location of his dantian, and a faint aura of disintegration emanated from it, which was a sign that the cultivator's foundation was destroyed.
Yun Chen sneered in his heart, but his face was full of compassion.
He walked to the bedside, sat down on the stool Zhou Wan had brought, and pretended to stretch out three fingers and place them on Zhou Peng's wrist.
He closed his eyes and concentrated, as if taking a patient's pulse.
In fact, a tiny trace of Nine Yang True Qi had already flowed through his fingertips and into Zhou Peng's body.
The meridians were severed, and the core of the dantian had indeed shattered into several pieces, but the core's original spiritual power had not yet completely dissipated.
"Sure enough."
Yun Chen felt relieved.
This injury is indeed a terminal illness for ordinary alchemists, but for him, as long as he has the Huiyuan Pill, it is not impossible to rebuild his Dantian.
The elixir recipe passed down to him by his master was something that defied the will of heaven.
After a moment, Yun Chen withdrew his hand.
Zhou Wan had been holding her breath. Seeing him withdraw his hand, she immediately asked impatiently, "Sir...how is it?"
"My son...can he be saved?"
Yun Chen picked up the tea the maid offered and blew on it gently: "Young Master's foundation is not broken. Although his Dantian is broken, there is still a chance to rebuild it."
He glanced at Zhou Wan, who looked very happy, and uttered two words lightly.
"Simple."
"Simple?"
Zhou Wan was stunned at first, then she was about to kneel down before Yun Chen: "Sir! Are you serious?"
"You said...simple?"
"As long as there is any magical item needed to save Peng'er, my Zhou family will definitely find it for you even if it means bankrupting us!"
"Ah."
Yun Chen responded indifferently.
He slowly took out a folded piece of rice paper from his medicine box.
He had prepared this prescription long ago.
Listed above are the main and auxiliary medicines needed to refine Huiyuan Dan. Moreover, he also "kindly" mixed in a few rare and valuable medicinal herbs that are extremely old but not necessary for refining the elixir itself.
He handed over the prescription.
"To prepare according to this recipe, all herbs must be of sufficient age."
"Remember, you are irreplaceable. Even the slightest difference will make me powerless."
Zhou Wan took the prescription with trembling hands and unfolded it eagerly as if she had found a treasure.
But she only took a glance and her brows were tightly furrowed.
"Sir... this... this Seven-Leaf Star-Patterned Grass, the Hundred-Year-Old Earth Core Marrow... and this Jade Marrow..."
"These... I am not knowledgeable enough to tell the difference..."
