Once again searching along the meridians, I discovered five locations on Old Master Su's body.
By the time Ling Zhenfei had exterminated all the little worms, it was already dawn.
Because he had to carefully search every meridian, Ling Zhenfei was extremely exhausted.
Just then, someone suddenly knocked softly on the door, and Ling Zhenfei hurriedly looked towards the door, seeing Dong Gang rushing in.
Dong Gang, looking a bit awkward, said, "I'm really sorry, Mr. Ling, someone insisted on coming in to see you, I couldn't stop them."
As soon as he spoke, a silhouette flashed in, and Ling Zhenfei quickly noticed it was a girl.
The girl appeared to be in her twenties, with very delicate features and an air of stubbornness on her face, her eyebrows showing a hint of heroism.
What surprised Ling Zhenfei even more was that the girl actually had some Northern Spiritual Energy, although not very strong, it was definitely there.
While Ling Zhenfei was shocked, the girl had already rushed over at an incredible speed to the bedside, looking anxiously at Old Master Su on the bed.
It seemed that the girl had an unusual relationship with Old Master Su. Seeing him lying motionless on the bed, she started crying.
"It's all my fault, I'm too late, I'm too late."
Standing at a distance, Ling Zhenfei watched the girl and couldn't bear her sobbing anymore, saying, "Have you finished crying? He's not dead yet, you'll sob him to death."
The girl gave Ling Zhenfei a glance, her eyes filled with terrifying Killing Aura.
"What did you say?"
Ling Zhenfei, not caring, said, "I said he's not dead yet, if you keep crying he will be."
The girl suddenly stood up and said to Ling Zhenfei, "Watch your mouth, Ling Zhenfei, my dad isn't that easy to kill."
Ling Zhenfei was stunned, surprised that the girl actually knew him, and smiled, "Sorry, but even if Old Master Su isn't dead, it's because I saved him; if not for me, he'd probably be dead now."
Ling Zhenfei wasn't joking; if he hadn't been there earlier, Old Master Su really might have died.
The girl looked at Ling Zhenfei in shock, "You saved my dad, really, is that true?"
Ling Zhenfei replied, "Of course, I am the Divine Doctor." Though saying this, Ling Zhenfei was thinking, Old Master Su looks seventy or eighty, how could he have such a young daughter?
The girl finally stopped crying and said to Ling Zhenfei, "Why hasn't my dad woken up yet?"
Ling Zhenfei said, "With a condition this severe, not dying is already quite good; for Old Master Su to fully awaken, it'll probably take a few more days."
The girl asked, "What should we do now?"
Ling Zhenfei yawned and said, "Of course, find a place to rest well. If someone could give a massage too, that would be even better."
The girl rolled her eyes with disdain and said, "If you really heal my dad, I can arrange a place for you to rest."
Ling Zhenfei said, "Healing isn't that easy; it requires a lot of time for recovery."
The girl looked at the time and said, "It's already morning, how about I treat you to breakfast?"
Ling Zhenfei thought for a moment; being treated to a meal by such a beauty, he had no reason to refuse, so he said, "Alright."
Under the girl's guidance, Ling Zhenfei followed her to the dining area, entrusting Old Master Su to the people at the door, instructing them to take good care of him and give him some water.
On the way, the girl introduced herself to Ling Zhenfei as Su Yuwei, indeed the old man's daughter, but actually an adopted daughter whom Old Master Su had raised since childhood.
Old Master Su had dedicated his whole life to scientific research, never marrying, which explained why the nation valued him so much.
When they reached the dining area, after getting some food, Su Yuwei didn't eat with Ling Zhenfei there, instead, she took him to another place.
This place looked quite hidden and seemed to be a dining area as well.
Ling Zhenfei was very surprised and said, "Why eat here far away?"
Su Yuwei said, "That area is for ordinary employees. It's not that I look down on them, but our work as researchers is rather special, and we like to discuss things during meals.
If these things are overheard by someone with ill intentions, it wouldn't be good."
With this explanation, Ling Zhenfei understood, and looking at the room, it indeed looked quite special. The wall materials couldn't even be penetrated with Divine Sense, really peculiar.
Ling Zhenfei said, "We're not discussing anything special, do we really need to be here?"
Su Yuwei said, "Of course, the matters I need to discuss with you are even more important."
Ling Zhenfei was stunned, "What matters?"
Su Yuwei said, "Your identity is very special, I know it. You're familiar with Phoenix, right?"
Ling Zhenfei was genuinely surprised to hear the name Phoenix from Su Yuwei.
Ling Zhenfei said, "That's right, I know Phoenix; currently, Phoenix should be vacationing in the Southern Hemisphere."
Su Yuwei said, "Exactly, mentioning Phoenix is mainly to make you understand that I know a lot about you."
"What else do you know?" Ling Zhenfei was astonished, wondering if he was constantly being watched.
Su Yuwei said, "We know a lot about you, there's no need to doubt it."
Ling Zhenfei helplessly said, "Alright, is there anything else you need to say?"
Su Yuwei asked, "How did my father's illness start?"
Ling Zhenfei thought for a moment and said, "How would I know how it started? I can only tell you what I observed, then you can surmise."
Su Yuwei nodded and said, "Then tell me, I'm listening."
Ling Zhenfei said, "There are some things attached to Old Master's meridians, small worms, biting on his nerves, some nerves have already been bitten through which caused this state."
Su Yuwei was shocked to hear this: "Small worms, how could there be worms?"
Ling Zhenfei said, "How should I know, I'm just a doctor, not Holmes or Detective Di Renjie; I only focus on healing. You, being around him often, couldn't think of anything?"
Su Yuwei shook her head saying, "Do you think it's possible for someone to have poisoned him?"
Ling Zhenfei chuckled, "Why would anyone poison you? What have you done to make someone want to kill you?"
Su Yuwei said, "There have been many attempts by foreign intelligence organizations to kill my father, maybe it's that, but this time it might be related to Xianling Mountain."
Ling Zhenfei was drinking porridge when he suddenly heard the words 'Xianling Mountain', and nearly spat out his porridge.
