Master, if you cure him, you can gain one level of merit and one level of medical skills. That’s more than saving a hundred people.

Xiao Qi’s excited voice rang in Su Qing’s ears. Su Qing was stunned. Who was this old man? Why was it that saving one person was more deserving than saving a hundred people?

“He’s a great philanthropist. He has done countless good deeds and saved countless people.” Xiao Qi saw that he was golden.

Xiao Qi heard her master’s doubtful voice and quickly explained to her.

So that was how it was!

Since saving old master Chu would increase her medical skills and merit points by one level, and she could also earn an additional two thousand taels of silver, it was a good deal.

“Sir, Sir, please save my master.”

…..

The Butler saw that Su Qing only stood there to watch the commotion and did not come over to save him. To save the old master, the white-bearded Butler wanted to kneel to Su Qing, but Su Qing stopped him.

“Help him up.”

Su Qing asked the Butler to help old master Chu up. The Butler quickly let old master Chu lean on him so Su Qing could take his pulse.

Su Qing squatted down beside old master Chu and checked his pulse. She realized that the old man’s wrist was all skin and bones. The green blood vessels were bulging, and his skin was so yellow that it looked like he had jaundice. He had been sitting all this while and didn’t notice it, but now that he was lying down, he saw that the old man’s stomach was as big as a pregnant woman’s.

This was a prominent symptom of hepatic ascites!

Su Qing quickly checked the old man’s pulse and felt it was cumbersome. He had to use four fingers to feel the pulse, which was almost undetectable.

The old man’s liver meridian was very weak, indicating that he had a severe illness. Xiao Qi’s voice rang in Su Qing’s ears, “Depression has turned into an illness. He is overly worried, and his liver has been seriously damaged. He has advanced-stage liver cancer and has turned into liver ascites. He has lost the function of blood production and does not have much time left.”

Su Qing told the Butler what Xiao Qi said. Although the Butler didn’t understand what liver cancer was, he understood that he didn’t have much time left. He was so scared that tears streamed down his face. He knelt in front of Su Qing and cried,

“Master Qi recommended you. You will be able to save my master. Please save him.”

He also knew that the old master was already beyond cure. He had invited all the famous doctors, and even the Imperial doctors in the palace said that no medicine could cure him. The old master had lived to this day because of his obsession.

Su Qing’s expression was grave after taking his pulse. She could feel that the old master had something on his mind. Because of this, he has been able to persist until today.

Su Qing had asked Xiao Qi about it. The old man could be saved with the internal organ recovery pill, but to make the pill, he needed a thousand-year Lingzhi. However, there was no such medicine in the system.

She asked the Butler,

“I’ll try and see if there’s a thousand-year Lingzhi?”

“Yes, yes. Someone just gave him a thousand-year-old Lingzhi.”

When he heard Su Qing only wanted the thousand-year Lingzhi as the cure, the Butler nodded excitedly. He called for someone to help him support the old master and ran out.

Su Qing asked Xiao Qi to give him some medicine that could prolong his life. Otherwise, the old man’s pulse would not last more than ten minutes.

Xiao Qi agreed and ran with her short legs to make the medicine. It made a blood-replenishing and longevity pill. After taking it, people would feel more energetic, and their complexion is better.

Su Qing fed the pill to master Chu first. Master Chu opened his eyes in less than five minutes. He was still weak, but he was much stronger than before. His sallow face had a hint of color, and his dull eyes were more lively.

“Thank you, Sir.”

Master Chu thanked Su Qing when he felt he had regained strength. While unconscious, he felt someone stuff a pill into his mouth. The pill had a faint sweetness, and it melted in his mouth. It flowed down his throat and into his stomach, pulling him out of the darkness.

Su Qing looked into the old man’s eyes and felt strange. He thought that he had to cure him. He had to.

Su Qing promised old master Chu,

“I’ll help you cure your illness.”

Master Chu had more trust in Su Qing now. For some reason, he felt that Su Qing could cure him. He had been taking herbal soups for many years, but none were as effective as her pill. He was indeed a divine doctor.

“Sir, the thousand-year-old Lingzhi is here. Do you need any other medicine?”

The Butler jogged back, panting heavily. His face was covered in sweat, and he didn’t even bother to wipe it off. He carefully handed the thousand-year Lingzhi to Su Qing.

When the Butler saw that the old master had woken up and his complexion was much better, his suspended heart settled down. He called out, “Old master!” with tears streaming down his face, but he was choked with sobs and could not speak.

“I’m fine, I’m fine.”

Master Chu patted the Butler’s shoulder and comforted him in a low voice.

Su Qing looked at the old man. He must be a kind person to treat his servants so well.

No wonder Xiao Qi said he was a great philanthropist!

“I’m looking for a room to concoct the medicine.”

Su Qing only had the Lingzhi in his hands, and he couldn’t make it disappear before them, so he asked the Butler.

“Okay, okay. I’ll take you to my family’s pharmacy. There are all kinds of medicine and tools there.”

The Butler wiped away his tears and quickly got up to lead the way.

They went around an arched door and arrived at the backyard. Su Qing was brought to a room on the west side. The moment he opened the door, he could smell a strong medicinal smell.

He had been sick so long that she even had a pharmacy at home.

“Sir, is there anything else?”

The Butler asked Su Qing respectfully. His eyes were filled with anticipation and respect as if he was looking at a living god.

“I don’t need any more. Don’t let anyone disturb me.”

Su Qing nodded and sent the housekeeper away. She closed the door and began to prepare the medicine.

Since old master Chu’s family had all kinds of medicine, there was no need to use the medicine from her system. Su Qing was still very stingy.

Xiao Qi was busy making pills. She would ask her master for whatever medicine she needed, and she would be Su Qing’s medicine girl.

After the time it took to brew a cup of tea, Xiao Qi finished making the internal organ recovery pill. The dark brown pill had a sweet fragrance when she held it. Su Qing thought about how she had been so focused on treating the patient that she had taken the medication without looking at it. Wasn’t that a waste of God’s gift?

“Master, quickly go and save that great philanthropist!”

Xiao Qi’s soft and cute voice rang in Su Qing’s ears. Su Qing stopped studying the pill and opened the door to leave the room. She found that the Butler had not left and was waiting at the door.

Seeing Su Qing come out, the Butler hurriedly stepped forward, his eyes filled with anticipation.

“It’s done. Your old master will be cured after eating it.”

Su Qing did not hand the pill over to the housekeeper. It was too precious. If she ran out of pills, she could not make more. A thousand-year-old Lingzhi was something that could only be found by luck.

When Su Qing returned, old master Chu was already sitting on the armchair. When he saw Su Qing, he stood up and looked at the brown pill in Su Qing’s hand, wanting to live.

“Take it!”

Su Qing didn’t waste any time and didn’t pretend to be profound. He just handed the pill to Master Chu casually.

“Thank you,” he said.

Master Chu nodded at Su Qing to express his gratitude. He took the pill and put it in his mouth. The Butler quickly brought a glass of water for Master Chu to take the medication, but master Chu waved his hand and refused.

“This pill will melt in your mouth; you don’t need water.”

When Master Chu finished speaking, he felt his stomach boiling, and a chill went straight to his liver..
