"Golden Silkworm Gu?"

The old man's eyes lit up, and then he looked at Shen Qiang with a smile, "Young man, if you don't understand, don't pretend to. This Iron Wire Gu, although not a rare and exotic treasure, is formidable because it is as fine as a hair and can be hard or soft."

"When soft, it can disappear with the wind, dissipating any external force. When hard, it is as firm as a rock, as tough as fine steel. If your teacher is wise, he would teach you how to guide the Iron Wire Gu out of a patient's body."

"But he would never tell you that this Iron Wire Gu can kill."

The old man sneered, "Because that is simply impossible. The Iron Wire Gu is the sword among all Gus, capable of easily killing any other Gu."

"Naturally, this includes the Golden Silkworm Gu."

Shen Qiang laughed, "Are you sure? A mere iron wire dares to be called a sword?"

The old man said proudly, "There are but four kinds of Gu poison in the world: Insect Gu, Love Gu, Blood Gu, and Witch Gu. Love Gu is wishful thinking, Blood Gu harms oneself, and Witch Gu is heinous—mostly extinct."

"Only Insect Gu has endured for hundreds of generations without decline, with no less than a thousand varieties. Among them, the most prominent are the Golden Silkworm Gu and the Five Poisons. Unfortunately, the Iron Wire Gu has the strongest life force, the strongest attack power."

"So your Golden Silkworm Gu will only die at the mouth of my disciple's Iron Wire!"

Looking at the old man's proud face, Shen Qiang laughed.

The Golden Silkworm Gu, as the name suggests, is like a caterpillar, resembling a silkworm but not entirely so.

Thus, it is strong, but it cannot be called the king of all Gus.

But what about Shen Qiang's Gu?

A hundred years to take shape, a hundred years to increase intelligence, a hundred years later wings sprout from the ribs, possessing the memory of wisdom, having transformed into a golden cicada after three centuries!

Bang!

The woman beside him shuddered, and her fair face instantly turned jaundiced.

"Master!"

The old man, full of pride, was taken aback.

"What's wrong?"

Almost at the same moment, the head of neurosurgery on the ground suddenly coughed.

Then he flipped over and stood up, saying, "Why haven't you left yet? I'm going to call security."

Almost as soon as the head of neurosurgery said this, the old man stared in horror as the blue vein behind the neurosurgeon's ear disappeared.

"How is this possible?"

The proud old man was completely baffled.

The head of neurology, who had been listening all along, now had bright eyes. After shining a small flashlight into the eyes of the head of neurosurgery, she turned her head and said coldly, "You all need to leave now. You are not welcome here. If you do not leave, I will immediately call the police."

Hearing this, the old man's face turned pale with eyes full of confusion.

But looking at the woman whose face had turned pale, he still yelled at Shen Qiang angrily, "What have you done? You've hurt her!"

Shen Qiang said indifferently, "I've merely killed a tiny insect."

With that, Shen Qiang waved his hand, and a dead Iron Wire Gu, as thin as a hair and about as long as a toothpick, fell into the hands of the angry old man, "Take your little bug and get out."

"If I find out that you dare to use such methods to harm people again, the dead won't be just an insect."

Hearing this, the old man froze.

He stared dumbly at the Iron Wire Gu in his hand, now devoid of any signs of life, his eyes filled with shock.

"So strong, so impressive! There's actually someone in this world who can silently kill an Iron Wire Gu, how can this be possible!"

By now, security had arrived.

The elder who seemed to have a lot to say looked at the neurosurgery department head with a bad attitude, hesitated for a moment, then swung his sleeves around and walked away.

As for the delicate-looking woman, she glanced at Shen Qiang with a pale complexion, as if she had something to say, but after hesitating for a bit, she also lowered her head and left.

Seeing the two of them go,

The neurosurgery department head smiled and patted Shen Qiang on the shoulder, saying, "Shen, don't take it too hard; they don't understand how incredible you are in surgery."

Hearing this, the director of the department of neurology frowned and said, "Have you forgotten what happened before? You fainted, remember?"

The neurosurgery department head was startled, "Really?"

The neurology department head fell silent.

At that moment, other doctors approached the neurosurgery department head to speak with him.

Taking the opportunity, the neurology department head pulled Shen Qiang outside, lowered his voice, and whispered, "Shen Qiang, I just heard you talking about using Gu; does the legend of Gu poison really exist?"

Shen Qiang frowned and fell silent for two seconds before speaking, "You're the head of neurology; in all your years of practicing medicine, have you ever seen parasites in the brain?"

The neurology department head frowned and replied, "I've seen a few cases, cerebral schistosomiasis, cerebral cysticercosis, intracranial echinococcosis, but not many."

Shen Qiang said sternly, "If you were to feed someone the eggs of these parasites, causing them to develop these diseases, that would be Gu; so really, it's not as mystical as you imagine."

The neurology department head asked in confusion, "But what I don't understand is how you put the bugs in and then took them out."

Shen Qiang frowned and said, "Well, that becomes complicated; if you want to understand it, you'd need to study it for years or even decades, just like brain neuroscience, before you could even get started."

The neurology department head let out a breath and sighed, "Then forget it."

Nodding his head, Shen Qiang said, "If there's nothing else, I'm going to leave."

"Goodbye."

After exchanging farewells,

Shen Qiang returned to Tumor Surgery.

The whole day, Tumor Surgery didn't have any surgeries worth mentioning.

Before long, the time came for the evening shift to end.

Shen Qiang had just come out of the inpatient department when he saw the elegantly pretty woman with particularly pale skin.

Upon seeing Shen Qiang, she hesitated slightly, then walked over and extended her hand, saying, "Hello, Dr. Shen, my name is Liu Siya. I'm a researcher at the Parasitology Research Institute. The previous incident was just a misunderstanding; my teacher and I have never used Gu to harm anyone."

"Previously, my master just wanted to confirm whether you really could treat Gu poison or not."

Shen Qiang hesitated and briefly shook hands with her.

"Do you need something?"

[Liu Siya spoke gravely, "It's like this; my teacher believes you're qualified to attend the Parasitology Seminar at the beginning of next month, but was afraid you'd refuse, so he asked me to talk to you about it."]

Shen Qiang frowned and said, "Let's talk about it then; if I'm free, I might attend."

Hearing Shen Qiang's obvious perfunctory reply,

Liu Siya quickly said, "If you agree, you will receive a formal invitation in a few days. Also, I have a personal question for you; my Iron Wire Gu has the most tenacious life force and can't be killed even by a cold rolling mill. How did you manage to do it, and that golden light that appeared, was it the Golden Silkworm Gu?"

Shen Qiang laughed and said, "I don't want to answer these questions. Is there anything else?"

Liu Siya hesitated, then said, "No, there is nothing else. Goodbye, Dr. Shen."

With that, she turned and left.

At that moment, Su Xiaonuan arrived, her eyes somewhat wary as she watched Liu Siya's retreating figure, and asked, "Shen Qiang, who is she?"
