"Why do you think so?" Since the young girl dared to question him, Doctor Han no longer worried about putting anyone to shame. Even though she was Lu Han's wife, he couldn't let her walk over him and question his medical knowledge.
"There is cold air flowing inside of Lu Han's body. This is because he was previously poisoned. In addition, the Yang energy in his wound is leaking out." Guan Tong stated.
"That's right." Doctor Han nodded.
"Then why did my wife say that your diagnosis was wrong?" Lu Han asked as their diagnoses were undeniably the same.
"But Doctor Han, you overlooked one important detail. It was the type of poison used against Lu Han initially." Guan Tong told the doctor.
"How could I not know about the poison at that time?" Doctor Han scoffed. After Lu Han was being poisoned, he had already been treating Lu Han ever since.
"That poison is called Cold Poison. Just as the name suggests, after the poison is in contact with the human body, it causes a person's entire body to turn cold." Guan Tong revealed the details that Doctor Han had forgotten.
Doctor Han was shocked. He did not know who this girl could have known about this. Maybe the Young Master gave her this information? At this moment, Lu Han was also surprised. Who exactly was this girl? How could she know so much of his secret?
"But according to the ancient books, the only way to break the coldness is to fight poison with poison." Guan Tong added.
Doctor Han frowned. Fight poison with poison. How would that work?
"Doctor Han, don't doubt this. Think carefully about what effect the Scorpion Poison has had for so many years?"
Doctor Han choked on Guan Tong's words. For so many years, Lu Han's body showed no signs of improvement at all. Instead, his condition only worsened. Lu Han had to endure the pain of the cold blood that ran through his veins every full moon. Even if he resorted to the heat of a fire, he would still feel the freezing coldness that would require immediate medical attention the next day.
"Then why don't you think of another way to counteract this condition?" Guan Tong questioned.
"Madam, why don't you take a look at the Young Master's health? Fighting poison with poison is a viable method, but Lu Han's body conditions would be unable to withstand that kind of treatment." Doctor Han refused Guan Tong's method ultimately.
Doctor Han was against Guan Tong's method because it was too risky to fight poison with poison, and Lu Han's body might suffer instead from the extreme way. Guan Tong turned to look at Lu Han, who was leaning against the bed. His face was pale, and he indeed looked like a weak little child.
"So, Young Master, what do you think should be our next course of action?" Guan Tong decided to ask the person involved, and if they didn't listen, she would be the one to save the day.
"Doctor Han, are you admitting that this is another method?" Lu Han raised his eyebrows. He did not expect Guan Tong to be so capable.
Doctor Han lowered his head. "Young Master, there is such a method in the ancient books. However, this ancient book is archaic. Very few people who practice medicine nowadays even know of it. I wonder how Madam knew about this?" Doctor Han was somewhat dissatisfied after being refuted by an innocent young girl.
"I saw it at my Grandfather's place in the countryside." Guan Tong answered honestly.
'The countryside? Has Lin Fei ever been to the countryside? Who did she meet? What did she encounter?' Lu Han decided to let Uncle Tang investigate it carefully again and report everything to him.
"Madam is right, but the risk is also unacceptable." The doctor continued building his argument for the Young Master.
"There is no medicine to cure Cold Poison, but Doctor Han should already know this." Guan Tong's expression became serious. What kind of quack doctor was he? Was he just trying to slide by? If they waited any longer, Lu Han's life would be over.
"Madam, you..." Doctor Han's face was also red in the front of Guan Tong's wrath.
"Alright, doctor, just tell me if this girl is right." Seeing that the two of them were arguing endlessly, Lu Han tried to end the conversation.
"Madam is right." Doctor Han gritted his teeth.
"Alright, I got it. You may leave now." Lu Han waved his hand, dismissing his doctor.
Doctor Han was stunned. He was surprised that the Young Master would just let him off the hook. Lu Han seemed to have seen through Doctor Han's thoughts. "My punishment for you is to go back and reevaluate your false diagnosis. You have to stay in for a month."
When Doctor Han heard this, his face wrinkled like a dumpling. He usually loved to go outside and visit the mountain range to pick herbs. But now, that would no longer be possible for him. It would feel like a lifetime for Doctor Han. Guan Tong looked at Doctor Han, who was looking at her angrily and clutched her face. She couldn't understand what was wrong with Doctor Han since he was so calm when he was arguing only a few minutes before. Why was Lu Han suddenly angry and decide to punish his doctor this way?
"Why did you prohibit him from going out? He was here to treat you." Guan Tong had to admit that Doctor Han was very experienced, but he was only too afraid to try such a revolutionary method that she suggested.
"I have you here to treat me. That would be sufficient." Lu Han raised his eyebrows. Guan Tong was angry. At this time, she suddenly recalled that Lu Han wanted to choke her to death earlier.
"Oh, I thought someone wanted to choke me to death just now." Guan Tong felt her vengeance.
"Don't worry. I remember my promise. Tell me what you want from me." Lu Han said. He was a man of his word.
"Let's talk about it after I heal your wounds." Guan Tong said to Lu Han with modesty. She was happy when she heard that the Young Master wanted to uphold their agreement as she didn't expect that Lu Han would keep his promise after only a little trickery.
"Can you heal them?" Lu Han asked for her reaffirmation.
"Yes, but the disease runs deep in your skin. It might take some time to heal." Lu Han listened to Guan Tong's words and couldn't help but find her serious expressions interesting.
