<h4>Chapter 281 – Parasites</h4>


    After nearly two incense stick of time,* Feng Qian Bo finally gave up and tried to call Traveling Doctor Liu toe.


    Of course, the payment… he was ready to use most of his assets if it meant that he would be able to find out the reason why his wife was suddenly crazy and also the reason why his children were all so weak.


    Old Master Nan was looking at Nan Hua intently as she stood beside him. When she suddenly answered like how Nan Luo used to… he nearly had a heart attack. She looked very differentpared to her usual self.


    Since when did Nan Hua have such excellent acting skill?


    But thinking of how Nan Hua was still smiling brightly before Nan Luo found out about the matter, it was not that strange anymore in his mind.


    It was just…


    His heart ached a lot.


    "Old Nan, why are you calling me sote at night?" Traveling Doctor Liu''s first sentence when he came was ain. He felt that he kept oning to Feng Family Residence recently because of their call.


    If it was because of his disciple, he would notin in the slightest bit.


    But it was not his disciple but rather a member of Feng Family.


    "The Feng Family will bear the expense." Old Master Nan snorted. This annoying money grubber.


    If not because he had seen the time when Traveling Doctor Liu treated the patients for free because they couldn''t afford the treatment, he wouldn''t have wanted to befriend this annoying man. When facing with a lot of nobles, Traveling Doctor Liu would charge a very expensive amount of money.


    It always made him wonder why this man didn''t just be a merchant with his conning skill.


    "Alright, alright." Traveling Doctor Liu''s eyesnded on Nan Hua and Feng Ao Kuai. He arched his eyebrows because he could see that the one standing beside Old Master Nan was not Nan Luo but rather Nan Hua.


    "Please help my aunt, Doctor Liu." Feng Ao Kuai cupped his fist.


    Nan Hua followed suit.


    Seeing how Nan Hua was also proficient in terms of male''s basic etiquette, Traveling Doctor Liu was a bit speechless. He chose not to speak about this as he walked into the room.


    Behind Traveling Doctor Liu, Shan Yu also looked in Nan Hu and Feng Ao Kuai''s direction. He felt that Nan Luo looked a bit different but couldn''t pinpoint why.


    At this time, Feng Qian Bo had just chased another doctor who said that he didn''t know.


    "Traveling Doctor Liu?" Feng Qian Bo asked carefully when he saw Traveling Doctor Liu.


    "It''s me." Traveling Doctor Liu looked at Lin Qiang on the bed as his eyebrows furrowed. Her pale face and also some other hints caused him to think of the worst. This was Fei Yang Kingdom, so it shouldn''t have been possible, right?


    "Could you please help my wife?" Feng Qian Bo asked carefully. "I''ll pay as much as you want."


    "I''ll see her first."


    Walking to the edge of the bed, Traveling Doctor Liu put a handkerchief before his two fingers tried to check on Lin Qiang''s pulse. The frown on his forehead crease deeper as he could sense the reason why Lin Qiang was so weak right now.


    After some time, he took a deep breath and turned to look at Feng Qian Bo.


    "How is it, Doctor?" Feng Qian Bo asked tentatively. All the doctors could only prescribe medicine that would help Lin Qiang nourish her blood and Qi. However, they couldn''t determine the reason behind it.


    "I have a question first."


    "Please speak freely."


    "Did shee from Zhang Xu Kingdom?" Traveling Doctor Liu asked.


    Feng Qian Bo''s face changed immediately. While he had managed to find out that Lin Qiang came from Zhang Xu Kingdom, he had immediately sealed the news afterwards. He didn''t want to let anyone found out about this.


    How could Traveling Doctor Liu know?


    Was this rted to the sickness that his wife was suffering in?


    "Y…Yes."


    "I see." Traveling Doctor Liu looked at Lin Qiang and sighed. "She''s afflicted by a specific parasite that only exist at the northern region. The parasite will suck on her blood and Qi in order to survive, at the same time, it''ll cause her lifespan to decrease."


    "What?" Feng Qian Bo was stunned. "There are such parasites? Howe the other doctors didn''t know…"


    "This is a method exclusive to a certain region at the north." Traveling Doctor Liu''s tone was a bit mncholic when he talked about this. He had visited that area many years ago and found out about this from his experience. If not because of his experience, he might not have known the reason why Lin Qiang was so weak like this.


    Feng Qian Bo almost copsed when he heard that. He asked quietly, "How to…"


    "There''s a certain flower that only exist in mountainous area that can alleviate the pain. The flower is purple in color with yellow at the middle." Traveling Doctor Liu looked around the room and pointed at the embroidery that Lin Qiang had made on her table. "It''s simr to that."


    Feng Qian Bo looked at the embroidery and felt his heart leapt to his throat. It was the same flower as the one that his wife often asked him to find. However, he didn''t manage to find it and eventually his wife gave up asking.


    He always felt bad whenever he thought about it.


    "Is it possible for the parasite to be taken out?" Feng Qian Bo asked carefully after some time.


    Traveling Doctor Liu nodded. "It''s possible, but I don''t bring my equipment. Also, I would need my disciples to help me, so I could only do it tomorrow at the earliest. In addition…."


    "What is it, if I can fulfill it, I''ll do anything."


    "Even if the parasite is taken out, this woman would have no more than a year to live."
