My spirit appeared on the road to exile, and I was treated as an ancestor.

Is Chapter 37 really beyond saving?
Gu Xingzhao was immediately curious: what was this coffin pattern?
According to ancient tradition, those with lines on their palms resembling a coffin are destined for a serious illness and a short lifespan. Even if they have a long lifespan, they will suffer from illness and pain.

The system provided an explanation in a timely manner.

The attendant couldn't stand such words and pointed at the doctor, cursing, "What nonsense are you spouting! My master is in the prime of his life and in good health, how could he be dying so soon! I think you're just a quack!"

The doctor was also a man of temper. He flicked his long sleeves and said, "My medical skills are lacking. Please find someone more skilled!"

He had seen many patients like this, and they all died in the end. If he said there was no hope, then there was no hope. Even if the imperial physicians from the palace came, there was no hope!

A bystander quickly pulled his colleague aside and whispered, "Why are you yelling at him? He's the best doctor in our county..."

During the two months that the master has been ill, we have consulted all the doctors in the neighborhood, but no one can cure him. This doctor can at least alleviate the master's current discomfort. What will happen to the master if we drive him away?
Ignoring the doctor, the attendant looked at Lu Qing and sighed, "Master Lu, my master was awake yesterday and had some things he wanted to tell you, but he has fainted now... I'm afraid you've made a wasted trip today."

Lu Qing sighed, "Life is truly unpredictable. I'll go in and take a look."

Only then did Gu Xingzhao notice that there was a person lying unconscious on the bed in the room, with cold sweat in his hair. He looked to be about the same age as Lu Zhou, around forty years old.

Gu Xingzhao, standing beside Lu Qing, asked, "Lu Qing, who is this?"

"Ancestors?"

Hearing Gu Xingzhao's voice, Lu Qing breathed a sigh of relief. He had been feeling uneasy earlier because he hadn't received a response from Gu Xingzhao, and he thought something had happened.

Lu Qing: "This person is named Yu Heng. He was a student I took in in my early years. He followed me for many years. Today, he sent Du Hangwu to find me, saying that he has something important to tell me. However, he is currently unconscious and the doctors are helpless."

Thinking of what the doctor had said earlier, that Yu Heng was nearing the end of his life, he felt a pang of regret.

So that's why Lu Qing was brought here. To be able to make the escorting official act out of favoritism, it seems that Yu Heng is not simple.

Gu Xingzhao hesitated for a moment and asked the system: What disease does this person have? Is it really incurable?

[Medical testing in progress...]

[Diagnosis: Perforated appendicitis. The patient's right lower quadrant appendix is ​​infected. Due to the uncontrolled condition, the patient is currently in shock and faces serious life-threatening risks.]

Treatment recommendation: Open surgery or laparoscopic surgery to eliminate the source of infection.

The system panel displays the results of abdominal ultrasound and CT scans, clearly showing the shape and size of the appendix.

Gu Xingzhao frowned. If it were ordinary appendicitis, it could be treated conservatively. However, once the appendix perforates, a large number of bacteria will enter the abdominal cavity, causing abdominal infection. In severe cases, like the septic shock we are in now, it can eventually lead to serious consequences such as multiple organ failure.

In conclusion, Yu Heng's situation was extremely serious; in ancient times, he would indeed have no choice but to wait for death.

Gu Xingzhao was conflicted. Although the mall had medical tools, she was not confident that she could save this person. Not to mention that the surgery required a sterile environment, she had only observed surgery during her internship and had no practical experience.

But the person had already gone into shock. If she didn't save him, he might not even make it through the next two days.

She was nervous, and the two options of "save" and "don't save" were frantically swirling in her mind.

“Lu Qing, your student’s condition is indeed very serious. With the current medical skills available, he cannot be saved and can only wait to die.”

Lu Qing sighed inwardly: This junior understands.

Everyone has their own destiny, and it can't be forced. Gu Xingzhao: "But I can try."

Lu Qing was stunned: "Sir, do you mean you can save Yu Heng?"

Gu Xingzhao glanced at the system panel, not daring to give Lu Qing any guarantees, "His condition is very serious, I can't guarantee that I can cure him, I can only try... Do you understand what I mean?"

Lu Qing clenched his fists, thinking of how Yu Heng looked when he left back then... It's always better to have a glimmer of hope than to just wait to die.

Lu Qing: I understand. I wonder how you intend to help us, sir? Is there anything I can do to assist you?
Gu Xingzhao looked around, took two large bottles of disinfectant and placed them on the ground. "Find someone to clean the house thoroughly, especially around the bed. Use these two bottles to wipe it inside and out, then clear the room of people. It will take me about two hours. There can't be anyone in the house during the rescue."

Although Lu Qing had doubts, he did not ask: "I understand. Please wait a moment while I discuss this with the people outside."

Gu Xingzhao: "Okay."

Upon seeing the two large bottles, Lu Xingyao knew that his ancestor had arrived. Without Lu Qing's instruction, he picked up the two bottles and followed his grandfather eagerly.

Upon learning that Lu Qing had a way to save people, but the house needed to be emptied and someone needed to clean it, the two servants were completely bewildered.

"!!!" Lu Xingyao excitedly hugged the two bottles of disinfectant tightly in his hands. Was his ancestor about to appear and save him?!
Luckily I came today, otherwise I would have missed so much!
Last time, his ancestor saved Liu Xiangbai, but because the room was too dark, he couldn't see anything. This time, he must see clearly!

Upon hearing this, the doctor scoffed, "An illness that I haven't been able to cure for years, you think you can?"

It's not that he looks down on people, but this person in front of him seems to know absolutely nothing about medicine. How can he save him?

Lu Qing had no intention of arguing with the doctor, after all, he really couldn't save the patient and could only rely on the gods. But the matter of the gods saving people was something that couldn't be spoken aloud.

One of the attendants looked troubled. In the past two months, they had consulted countless doctors, all of whom said that he could not be saved. It was really not convincing for Old Master Lu to say that he could be saved now.

Moreover, they had never heard that Old Master Lu was also skilled in medicine.

Another servant, his eyes gleaming, grabbed the man's hand and whispered something to him.

During this period, news that the Lu family was protected by the gods spread far and wide, saying that the gods had manifested their power, sent down divine punishment, and saved the Lu family.

They had heard similar rumors in Laiyuan as well, "Maybe Old Master Lu... really can save the master."

Besides, my master has always respected and trusted Elder Lu. Elder Lu would never harm my master. Rather than letting my master suffer and wait to die, it's better to take a gamble and let Elder Lu give it a try.

After weighing the options, the two servants no longer hesitated. "We will give the order immediately. Please, Elder Lu, do your utmost to save him."

Having persuaded the two attendants, Lu Qing went to discuss the matter with Du Hangwu.

Upon learning that Lu Qing would be staying here for two hours, Du Hangwu's face darkened. He had originally intended to set off today, but considering the power behind Yu Heng, he agreed.

Even the seemingly skilled physician before him was helpless, so what could Lu Qing, a mere scholar, possibly do?

Could it be...
