Chapter 240 Two Letters from Chang Ming
Li Chongbai frowned, looking at Nan Yu with eyes full of deep worry.
"Yingying, have you had a high fever before? You haven't recovered completely, and you started staying up late and working hard every day. Now your body can't take it anymore, and you have a high fever again."
He sighed, "I'll give you two injections, you lie on the sofa and rest for a while."
Nan Yu's face flushed, and sweat kept pouring down her forehead. She retracted her wrist and shook her head, saying, "Uncle Li, you don't need to give me acupuncture. I just had a fever-reducing injection, and I'll be fine in a while."
Li Chongbai forcibly pulled her back and made her sit on the only sofa in the ward. "No, you should just take a rest now."
He turned his head to look at Pei Yu and ordered: "Pei Yu, give me my silver needle."
Pei Yu immediately took out a box of silver needles and handed it to Li Chongbai.
"Teacher, this is for you."
Li Chongbai took it, and despite Nan Yu's refusal, he directly pulled out the silver needle and inserted it into several acupuncture points on her head.
"Yingying, it will only take half an hour. It will be fine in a while."
Afraid that Nan Yu would resist, Li Chongbai pressed her shoulders hard to prevent her from leaving.
Nan Yu sat on the sofa and couldn't stand up at all. At this point, she no longer refused. She closed her eyes silently, leaned against the wall, and took a nap.
Li Chongbai turned around and wrote a prescription and handed it to Pei Yu, "Pei Yu, go get the medicine and watch them boil it out within half an hour."
"good teacher."
Pei Yu took the prescription and immediately left the ward to get the Chinese medicine.
Li Chongbai stood in the ward with his hands behind his back, walking back and forth, occasionally looking at Nan Yu who was dozing off, and observing Duan Zhu who was as quiet as ever.
Although Nan Yu closed her eyes, she couldn't fall asleep at all. She could clearly feel Li Chongbai moving around.
She slowly opened her eyes and looked at Li Chongbai, "Uncle Li, please sit down for a while."
Li Chongbai saw Nan Yu open her eyes again and asked worriedly, "Did I disturb you? I'll sit down now, you continue to rest."
Nan Yu's face turned pale and she shook her head gently, "I can't sleep, it has nothing to do with you."
She paused and asked the question that had been puzzling her mind.
"Uncle Li, why do you know Ghost Doctor Chang Ming?"
When Li Chongbai heard this, he remembered the three acupuncture techniques that Nan Yu knew, and couldn't help but say, "Six years ago, by chance, I met Changming in City C, and worked with him to cure a patient."
"It was also during that opportunity that he and I occasionally kept in touch and we became friends."
"Until two years ago, one night, he suddenly sent me a text message and asked me to rush to that address."
At this point, he paused, took a deep breath, and then continued, "When I arrived, he had already passed away, leaving behind two letters, one for me and one for his apprentice."
Nan Yu clenched her fists unconsciously when she heard this. Her eyes were red as she asked, "What's in the letter?"
Li Chongbai was immersed in his memories and did not notice that Nan Yu's emotions were more urgent than before.
"The letter he gave me asked me to give another letter to his apprentice. He also asked me to help him bury him secretly. He said that from now on he is no longer a ghost doctor, and the word "ghost doctor" cannot be mentioned on his tombstone anymore."
When Nan Yu heard this, she felt a wave of pain in her heart, so much so that tears welled up in her eyes.
She suppressed the sourness in her nose and tried to make her voice sound normal.
"Uncle Li, do you still have the other letter?"
Li Chongbai shook his head. "No, I didn't see the other letter back then, Changming's apprentice took it away in advance and disappeared from then on."
"It was from the letter Changming left me that I learned that he had a disciple and left a letter for that disciple."
