Chapter 650 I’m so scared

"No one is allowed to see the old man alone before the board meeting."

Su Dahai suddenly stood up.

"Su Dahe! Did you do something to Father? Why are you so afraid of others seeing him?"

"Brother, what do you mean by that?"

Su Dahe's expression changed.

There's a limit to making baseless accusations!

The hall descended into chaos once more, with the two factions blaming each other, the shouting nearly lifting the roof off.

Su Yue felt her heart breaking as she watched these usually dignified elders display their ugly side.

"enough!"

She suddenly shouted, her voice carrying an unprecedented authority.

"Grandpa isn't dead yet! Are you all in such a hurry to divide the inheritance? Su Dahe, if you want to be the chairman, shouldn't you at least ask Grandpa's opinion first?"

Su Yue's words were like a boulder thrown into a calm lake, creating ripples in the hall of the Su family villa.

The members of the Su family looked at each other, their expressions varied, but all carried a hint of disbelief.

"Grandpa's awake?"

Susan asked in a shrill voice, her fingers, painted with bright red nail polish, unconsciously twisting together.

Su Dahe's face turned deathly pale instantly, and fine beads of sweat appeared on his forehead. He quickly stepped forward.

"Dad's really awake? Yueyue, you can't joke like that!"

Su Yue looked at her second uncle's unusual reaction with doubt in her eyes, but quickly regained her composure.

"Second Uncle, don't worry. Grandpa hasn't woken up yet, but I've found a doctor who can cure him. He'll be here soon."

"Nonsense!"

Su Dahe suddenly raised his voice.

"Even Professor Lee Myung-bak couldn't help with this late-stage pulmonary heart disease, what kind of doctor can you find? Are you some kind of quack?"

Just as Su Yue was about to retort, a deep and powerful engine roar suddenly came from outside the villa.

The sound grew louder as it approached, finally stopping abruptly in front of the villa.

"he came."

Su Yue's eyes lit up. Forgetting about arguing with her second uncle any longer, she quickly walked towards the door.

The Su family members followed without thinking, and saw a pure white Lamborghini Aventador parked in the center of the courtyard like an elegant beast.

The car door opened like a wing, and a tall, slender young man stepped out calmly.

He was dressed in a simple white shirt and black casual pants, with an inexpensive-looking watch on his wrist, but he exuded an indescribable aura.

Sunlight shone on his sharply defined profile, outlining a perfect arc.

"Qin Luo!"

Su Yue rushed forward, her eyes filled with hope.

"You finally came."

Qin Luo nodded slightly, his gaze sweeping over the group of Su family members behind Su Yue, each with their own distinct expression.

"It's an emergency, take me directly to see the patient."

"Okay, come with me."

Su Yue turned around to lead the way.

"and many more!"

Su Dahe suddenly blocked their way, looking Qin Luo up and down.

"Is this the 'miracle doctor' Yueyue was talking about? He looks like just a young lad!"

Qin Luo's expression remained unchanged; he merely glanced at Su Dahe indifferently.

That gaze was calm as still water, yet it inexplicably made Su Dahe feel a pang of unease.

"Second uncle!"

Su Yue stamped her feet in frustration.

"Grandpa's condition cannot be delayed!"

At this moment, Su Dahai and Zhang Feng'e stepped out from the crowd.

Su Dahai opened his eyes wide in surprise.

"Qin? It really is you!"

Qin Luo nodded politely to Su Dahai and his wife when he saw them.

"Uncle Su, Aunt Zhang, it's been a long time."

"Do you know?"

Su Yue looked at her parents in surprise.

Zhang Feng'e excitedly grabbed her daughter's hand.

"This is the little miracle doctor that your dad and I often talk about, the one who saved us on the highway!"

Su Dahe sneered.

"Him? A medical school student? Brother and sister-in-law, you're too easily fooled!"

Qin Luo ignored the doubts around him and calmly spoke to Su Yue.

"If we delay any longer, the patient will be in danger."

Su Yue suddenly realized what was happening and, without bothering to explain further, grabbed Qin Luo and ran upstairs.

"Follow me quickly!"

The members of the Su family looked at each other in bewilderment, and then followed suit.

Su Dahe lagged behind, his expression shifting between anger and uncertainty. He quietly took out his phone and sent a message.

Two medical staff members stood in front of the master bedroom door at the end of the second-floor corridor. When they saw Su Yue bringing people over, they made way for her.

"right here."

Su Yue pushed open the door, and a strong smell of medicine mixed with disinfectant hit her.

Qin Luo entered the room and his gaze immediately locked onto the emaciated old man on the large bed.

Su Dongshan lay quietly, his face ashen, his breathing so weak that his chest was barely rising and falling; only the electrocardiogram monitor beside the bed proved that he was still alive.

"Everyone, get out."

Qin Luo suddenly spoke, his voice not loud but undeniable.

"what?"

The Su family members who followed in were in an uproar.

"no!"

Susan screamed.

"Who knows what you're going to do to Grandpa?"

Qin Luo ignored her and looked at Su Yue instead.

"If you want the patient to live, do as I say."

Su Yue bit her lip and turned to speak to everyone.

"Everyone, please go out first. I trust Qin Luo."

"Yueyue! Are you crazy?"

Su Dahe said sternly.

"Let a stranger be alone with Dad?"

Su Dahai hesitated for a moment, but ultimately sided with his daughter.

"Second brother, let's listen to Yueyue. Qin saved us before, and I trust his medical skills."

After an argument, the Su family reluctantly left the room, leaving only Su Yue and two medical staff.

"You all go out too."

Qin Luo said to the medical staff.

"Lock the door from the inside. Don't come in without my permission."

The older doctor frowned.

"Young man, Elder Su's condition is very complicated, no."

"Late-stage pulmonary heart disease accompanied by multiple organ failure, is that correct?"

Qin Luo interrupted him.

"But you're wrong, this isn't pulmonary heart disease."

The doctor stared in shock.

How did you know the diagnosis?

"go out."

Qin Luo said no more and went straight to the hospital bed.

The medical staff looked at Su Yue, and seeing that she nodded, they had no choice but to leave the room.

Su Yue locked the door herself, and when she turned around, she saw Qin Luo take out an antique wooden box from his backpack.

"Please prepare an alcohol lamp and disinfectant wipes for me."

Qin Luo said without looking up.

Su Yue hurriedly retrieved the necessary items from the medical cabinet, her hands trembling slightly.

"Grandpa, is there really any hope?"

Qin Luo did not answer immediately, but sat down on the edge of the bed and gently placed three fingers on Su Dongshan's withered wrist.

He closed his eyes, and his whole being seemed to enter a strange state, where even his breathing became barely perceptible.

Su Yue stood to the side, holding her breath, watching Qin Luo's brows gradually furrow, until they were almost knotted together.

Ten minutes later, Qin Luo finally opened his eyes, his dark pupils gleaming with a cold light.

"How about it?"

Su Yue asked anxiously. Qin Luo slowly withdrew his hand.

"Your grandfather doesn't have late-stage pulmonary heart disease, but rather mid-stage."

"what?"

Su Yue's eyes widened.

"But Professor Lee Myung-bak clearly said..."

He was wrong.

Qin Luo interrupted her.

"Or rather, someone made him misjudge."

Su Yue felt dizzy and had to hold onto the bedpost to steady herself.

"What do you mean?"

Qin Luo opened the wooden box, inside which were dozens of silver needles of varying lengths, gleaming coldly under the light.

"Your grandfather isn't sick; he's been bewitched."

Qin Luo's voice was eerily calm.

"A type of Gu worm that specifically devours the blood and qi of the human body."

"insanity?"

Su Yue's voice trembled.

That's not the legendary one.

"It's not a legend."

Qin Luo took out a three-inch-long silver needle and sterilized it over an alcohol lamp.

"This kind of Gu worm may come from Miao territory or the Western Regions. After entering the human body, it will lurk in the blood vessels and constantly devour the blood and qi. If the blood and qi are insufficient, the organs will slow down or even stop functioning. Your grandfather already had an old injury to his lungs. After the blood and qi were devoured, his lungs could not work properly, so breathing was naturally difficult."

Su Yue's face turned deathly pale.

"So those symptoms were all caused by the Gu worms?"

"Yes."

Qin Luo nodded.

“The Gu worm is very clever and can mimic the symptoms of various diseases. If it weren’t for me, your grandfather would have passed away from ‘late-stage pulmonary heart disease’ in three days, and no one would have suspected any other cause.”

Su Yue's legs went weak, and she knelt down by the bed, holding her grandfather's cold hand.

"Who...who would do such a thing?"

Qin Luo did not answer, but focused on disinfecting the silver needles.

"The good news is that treating Gu worms is much simpler than treating actual late-stage pulmonary heart disease. It doesn't require using highly difficult acupuncture techniques like the 'Nine-Turn Rejuvenating Needle'."

"Ding! Side quest triggered. Capture the 'Gu worm' inside Su Dongshan within 24 hours. Quest reward: 10 billion in cash."

A mechanical and cold voice from the system suddenly rang in Qin Luo's mind, causing his fingers to pause slightly.

Ten billion? He almost laughed out loud; this was like a pie falling from the sky! The main quest required earning fifty billion, and this side quest would easily exceed that goal.

"Qin Luo? What's wrong?"

Seeing that he suddenly stopped, Su Yue asked nervously.

Qin Luo snapped out of his daze, his eyes shining with excitement.

"It's nothing, I just thought of a treatment plan. Yue'er, unbutton your grandfather's shirt and take off the ventilator."

Although Su Yue was puzzled, she did as instructed.

Her slender fingers carefully unbuttoned Su Dongshan's hospital gown, revealing the old man's thin, bony chest.

When she removed the ventilator, her movements were as gentle as if she were handling a fragile treasure.

"From now on, you just need to watch from the sidelines."

As Qin Luo spoke, he gently placed his right hand on Su Dongshan's chest.

Su Yue took two steps back, her hands unconsciously twisting together.

"Qin Luo, are you really sure? What about Grandpa?"

"Believe me."

Qin Luo said without turning his head, his voice filled with unwavering determination.

He closed his eyes, and the internal energy of the Tai Xuan Scripture began to circulate within his body.

A warm current rose from his dantian and flowed along his meridians to his right hand.

He divided his internal energy into two streams: one stream, like a gentle stream, protected Su Dongshan's fragile heart meridian; the other stream, like a probe, spread out, searching inch by inch along the twelve meridians of the human body.

The ward was so quiet you could hear a pin drop, with only the regular beeping of the monitor.

Su Yue held her breath, her eyes fixed on Qin Luo's hand.

Unbeknownst to her, Qin Luo's internal energy was currently weaving an invisible net within her grandfather's body.

"found it!"

Qin Luo was startled.

At the location of Su Dongshan's Foot Jueyin Liver Meridian, he sensed an abnormal fluctuation. That thing was as cunning as an eel, trying to evade the tracking of his internal energy.

Qin Luo's lips curled into a cold smile, and his internal energy suddenly increased, surging towards that direction like a flood.

"come out!"

He suddenly shouted and pressed his right hand heavily on Su Dongshan's chest.

"cough"

Su Dongshan suddenly coughed violently, his mouth wide open. A tiny, smooth, black worm, about the size of a little finger, darted out of his mouth with such speed that it almost left a blur!
As soon as the insect came into contact with the air, two slits immediately split open on its back, and a pair of transparent wings unfolded with a "whoosh".

"Want to run?"

Qin Luo reacted swiftly, his left hand flashing out like lightning, grabbing the insect just as it was about to take flight.

"squeak"

The Gu worm emitted a piercing scream and writhed wildly in Qin Luo's palm.

He could feel the thing's sharp mouthparts trying to pierce his skin.

"court death!"

Qin Luo snorted coldly, his five fingers suddenly tightening.

With a soft "poof," the Gu worm exploded in his palm, turning into a pool of foul-smelling black blood.

Meanwhile, in a dark cave deep in the mountains of Miao territory, an old woman shrouded in a black robe suddenly coughed up a mouthful of blood.

"Who?! Who broke my curse?!"

The old woman clutched her chest, her withered fingers digging deep into her flesh, her cloudy eyes filled with disbelief.

"I've been raising this Gu for thirty years, how could that be?"

Inside the ward, Su Yue stared wide-eyed, her face deathly pale.

"What...what is that?"

"Insect."

Qin Luo shook the black blood off his hands and headed towards the bathroom.

"A kind of flying poisonous insect; we almost let it get away just now."

Su Yue stared at Qin Luo's retreating figure, her shock beyond measure.

She never imagined that this seemingly ordinary young man was not only highly skilled in medicine, but also an expert in the legendary Gu poison.

What alarmed her even more was that Qin Luo's series of movements just now were almost beyond human limits.

Qin Luo carefully washed his hands at the sink, the smell of disinfectant filling the bathroom.

He looked up at himself in the mirror, his eyes shining with excitement. The system task was complete, and 10 billion was being deposited into his account.

This means that he has exceeded his main mission objective!

"Ding! Congratulations, host, on completing the side quest. The reward of 10 billion cash has been credited to your account. Current main quest progress: 200%. Additional rewards will be distributed upon settlement."

Qin Luo almost burst out laughing.

He dried his hands, composed himself, and then returned to the ward.

"Grandpa"

Su Yue asked nervously.

"She'll wake up soon."

Qin Luo said confidently.

"And my condition will be much better than before."

He walked to the bedside, placed his hand on Su Dongshan's chest again, and silently channeled a surge of pure internal energy into him.

This internal energy, like a gentle spring breeze and nourishing rain, soothed the old man's meridians, which had been damaged by the Gu worm.

Sure enough, in less than three minutes, Su Dongshan's eyelids began to twitch.

"grandfather!"

Su Yue rushed to the bedside, her voice choked with sobs.
