A four-year-old medical prodigy descended to the mortal realm, and the entire capital sought her tre

Fu Da was shocked. He stood up and rushed to Caiwang, shouting, "Say it again, who?!"

"Our young master, Jia Yuntian! When I first saw him, I was even more shocked than you!" Caiwang said.

Fu Da gradually calmed his thoughts. "Six years... how did you manage to get through it, young master?"

"The lady protected the young master very well back then. Not to mention those people, even the few of us couldn't find him."

Fu Da recalled that after Jia Guozhang was beheaded, the court clearly did not implicate his entire family.

However, a group of soldiers appeared and secretly murdered all the descendants of the Jia family.

The common people only know that after the Jia family's property was confiscated, all the members of the Jia family disappeared, and no one knows where they went.

Fu Da and the others were Jia Guozhang's confidants. They happened to be out collecting medicinal herbs at that time, which is why they escaped the disaster.

When they rushed back to the Jia mansion, they found it completely ransacked, with only the steward hiding in the woodshed, covered in blood.

With his last breath, the steward told Fu Da what had happened, saying that the Ministry of Justice had determined the crime and that the assassination was carried out by the soldiers.

The steward also told them that the lady had protected the young master Jia Yuntian and that he had released him.

"Brothers!" Fu Da said to everyone, gathering his thoughts. "Since the young master is at the Ling Shu Hall, let's go and take a look."

At midnight that night, Zhao Jinzhong was fast asleep when Wu Jia gently woke him up.

"Young General, Jia Yuntian is outside the mansion, saying there's something urgent at the clinic."

Zhao Jinzhong was startled and jumped up. He put on his clothes and went to see Jia Yuntian.

The moment Jia Yuntian saw Zhao Jinzhong outside the General's Mansion, he knelt down.

Zhao Jinzhong heard him say that a patient had also been poisoned by the snake spirit and was in the clinic.

This person was still a member of the Jia family back then. Jia Yuntian knelt down and begged Zhao Jinzhong to ask Zhou Ruo to save him.

Without saying a word, Zhao Jinzhong went straight to Lanxiang Courtyard and carried Zhou Ruo to Lingshu Hall.

There are three medical rooms on the first floor of Ling Shu Hall. Jia Yuntian stayed in one of them after he arrived.

Zhou Ruo remained unconscious the entire way. When they arrived at the clinic, Zhao Jinzhong placed her next to Jia Yuntian's room.

Then wake her up with a lemon.

Zhou Ruo, half-asleep and rubbing her eyes, said:

"Brother, how did I fall asleep in the clinic? It's getting dark, we should go home, right?"

As she spoke, Zhou Ruo jumped off the bed and, still half asleep, pulled Zhao Jinzhong towards home.

"Ruoruo," Zhao Jinzhong pulled her back, "there's a patient."

Zhou Ruo instantly regained her senses. "The patient? Where? Where is he?"

Zhao Jinzhong pointed to the room next door, the one where Jia Yuntian was sleeping.

Zhou Ruo sensed through the wall and exclaimed in surprise, "Huh? How come another person afflicted by the Serpent Spirit has arrived?"

She went to the next room, where four or five people were gathered, all looking her over.

Zhou ignored them and walked straight to Qian Lai.

"How is he still alive?"

Judging from the scent of the money, Zhou Ruo immediately knew that he had been bitten by a snake three days ago.

The students from Fuda looked at each other, wondering why Zhou Ruo would ask such a question.

Caiwang said, "That's why I came to you for treatment, since I'm not dead yet."

Who the hell dies and gets dragged to the clinic? How can this kid say such ignorant things! Caiwang was speechless.

When Zhou Ruo touched Qian Lai's wrist, she sensed a strong heat energy emanating from his body.

"No wonder!"

It was this heat that had been burning the snake spirit within Qian Lai's body, which was why he had been able to live until now.

What is this energy? Zhou Ruo doesn't seem to have seen it before.

Zhou Ruo took out the silver needles, and the Fuda group became somewhat nervous, but they were clearly restraining their urge to step forward and interfere.

Because Jia Yuntian had told them that during the process of Zhou Ruo paying for treatment, they should not disturb her by seeing anything.

Zhou Ruo inserted a silver needle into Qian Lai's snake bite wound and simultaneously activated her spiritual energy to examine it.

Zhou Ruo first saw the snake being venomed by Qian Lai, and then took advantage of his slippery hand to bite him.

Next, Zhou Ruo began to examine the heat energy within Qian Lai's body; it was very hot and intense.

Looking further ahead, Zhou Ruo saw several red plants, like clusters of red flames, in Qian Lai's hand, beside him.

"Vermilion Bird Grass! Brother, I saw Vermilion Bird Grass!" Zhou Ruo exclaimed.

The group from Fuda, including Jia Yuntian, immediately became alert.

They were surprised. How could Zhou Ruo see the Vermilion Bird Grass on Qian Lai?

"What's going on?" Fu Da asked, feigning composure.

Zhou Ruo, her face beaming with excitement, pointed at Qian Lai and said to Fu Da, "He...he's seen the Vermilion Bird Grass! Not only has he seen it, he's even eaten it!"

Fu Da was so frightened by Zhou Ruo that his legs went weak and he almost lost his balance.

He looked at Jia Yuntian, "Young Master, what's going on?"

Jia Yuntian was confused for a moment, but everything Zhou Ruo said was true.

Although he didn't know how Zhou Ruo knew, denying it at this point was pointless.

Moreover, Zhao Jinzhong had previously suspected that he knew about the Vermilion Bird Grass.

"Miss, please help Qian get rid of the poison first," Jia Yuntian pleaded with her.

"Alright!" Zhou Ruo's good mood contrasted sharply with the mood of the people around her.

The group from Fuda were confused. "Doctor, is there any hope for my brother?"

"There's hope! It'll be over soon!"

Caiwang found it strange. This was highly poisonous, yet the young doctor spoke as if it were as easy as pulling a thorn out of the flesh.

Zhou Ruo inserted the silver needles and found that the venom of the snake spirit, which had been eroded by the Vermilion Bird Grass, was much weaker.

She found the food tasteless and threw it away. Qian Lai then vomited black blood, expelling all the venom from the snake spirit.

Immediately afterwards, Zhou Ruo absorbed all the energy of the Vermilion Bird Grass from Qian Lai's body into her own.

When the heat from the Vermilion Bird Grass first entered Zhou Ruo's body, her small body couldn't handle it all at once.

Zhou Ruo felt as if her body was suddenly on fire, and her mouth was dry.

"Brother, give me water! I want to drink water!"

Zhao Jinzhong turned around and went out to get a pot of water for her, which Zhou Ruo gulped down in one go.

It was still hot, so she quickly ran back to the next room, picked up the lemon that Zhao Jinzhong had used to wake her up, and ate it in a few bites.

"Phew~ That feels much better."

"Ruoruo, how are you?" Zhao Jinzhong asked with some concern.

Zhou Ru patted her tummy and said happily,

"Brother, I got the Vermilion Bird Grass! I collected all the Vermilion Bird Grass energy from that person! Hehehe!"

Zhao Jinzhong had many questions in his mind, and he wanted to ask Jia Yuntian and the others to clarify them.

"Ruoruo, let's go."

The two returned to the next room, where Qian Lai had already woken up.

Fu Da knelt on one knee, clasped his hands in a fist:

"Thank you so much, young miracle doctor, for saving my brother's life! We'll do anything for you if you ever need us again!"

Zhou Ruo needed to carefully analyze what Fu Da said in order to understand it.

She thought adults were being too roundabout; wouldn't it be better to just say "thank you"?

Zhao Jinzhong spoke up: "There's no need to wait until later; we need your help now."

"What does the young general mean by this?" Jia Yuntian had already guessed a bit.

"You need to tell me why he ate the Vermilion Bird Grass? What is your connection with the Vermilion Bird Grass?"
